U Team a Disappointment.

There Is no getting around it. the
Varsity is represented by the poorest
team it has had for years. Ever since
the season opened the members of the
faculty, who are known as the eligibil-
ity committee, have for some reason
or other, been throwing the hooks into
every man who looks like a football
player Why there should be such an
tagonisn against football. or. in fact,
all athletics, at the university is hard
TO explain. Utah was just beginning
to make itself heard in athletic circles
in the west. and this season will get
a setback that will take some time to

to show what the machine could do.
The speedomoter read forty miles an
hour on one stretch of the road. Lee
Moore reached out and held his bare
hand on top of the radiator to show
that the water was doing its work
well.
The return trip from Grantsyille was
made in quick time, and when The
Herald office was reached it was
found that two more miles were needed
to make the zoe. A short run up Brig
ham street and return saw the road

Catholic cathedral was passed.
When the party reached the Botterill

lists were on hand 20 see the machine.
The gasoline was measured and it was
found that only eighteen gallons had
been used. When told that the radi-
ator had run all day with the one I'LL
ing before the start, they would hardly
believe it.
Below is record of the run, the
times and distances:

makers went on strike yesterday aft
ernoon."
When Walter Johnson first struck
this burg those of his fellow-players
who had never been west were looking
for information. and Walter was right
on the job with answers
Jack Warner was among the most
1ns1stent, and the young phenom be-
came rather tired answering questions.
AT last he could stand it no longer.
and when Jack sided up to him one
day and said:

That's right" replied Walter I've

Joe Cantillon and Dutch" Schaefer
of the Detroit Tigers are great friends.
Whenever il is possible Joe visits
Sehaefer at his home. A couple of
years ago Dutch built a new home
and the first thing he did was to have
Joe call and see it. II was beautiful
place. with large grounds both in front
and back; Schaefer told Joe all his
plans, how he was going to have a nice
chicken yard in the rear and a lawn in
front
When Joe first saw Schaefer this
summer on the road he asked him
about the new home Everything was
lovely and the goose hung high. Schae-
fer told him, but he had trouble with
the lawn
Whats the natter" asked Joe.
We'll" replied Dutch" lit wouldn't
grow at first, but it's coming along
right good now. I have succeeded in
making two blades Of grass grow
where only one grew last year"
Well. that's fine" said Joe. I'm
glad to hear it,
Yes replied the funny one, eff
keep on doubling up like that every
spring in about thousand years I'll
have lawn"
Tom Hughes is a good man to have
for a friend. He always has been. He
can settle most any kind of a dispute.
Among his many friends he numbered
a married couple who were unable TO
get along very well together. He tried
his best to get things running smooth
Iy, but il was no use
One day he came into the club house
at the ball park with sad expression
on his face. Charlie Smith braced him
and asked what was the matter.
well, Y and his wife are divorced"
"Amicably?" asked Charlie
'Oh, yes He got the dog and she
got the rubber plant
When Jim Delehanty was i'll this
summer it was a pretty hard matter
to tell just what his ailnent was. -Four
doctors had been to see him. when he
said to the nurse in charge:

other doctor"

Murphy of the Athletics is somewhat
of a joker. Last year in the dead of
winter Harry Davis was visiting him
and was asked to remain for dinner
Just before starting for the dining
room Danny remarked to Harry that
they were ging to have green peas and
strawberries for dinner.
Where in the world did you get

Harry.
'Out Of the cans" replied Harry, as
he led the way to the table.

Hammer for UnhoIz.

Everybody is taking a fall out Of
poor Rudy Unholz these days. 1t is all
because he was whipped by Cyclone
Thompson last week IN San Francisco
This is wrong, for any person who
thought Unholz ever could fight, has no
one to blame but himself. and If they
were disappointed in his showing
against Thompson, the less they can
say about his defeat the better for
them. Unholz never could fight, and
never will be able to fight AS q Jug
gler OF the Dutch dialect. Unholz is a
world beater. and it was this alone that
made him friends and secured his
matches. Unholz should forsake the
ring for the vaudeville stage, use the
best English he knows how and he
would make a hit.

overcome. In recent years the state
university has made wonderful strides
as a university in the west, and wheth-
er the eligibility committee realizes il
or not. it is cold fact that its athletic
victories have done more toward secur-
ing this recognition than all the mem
bers of the faculty combined. Because
a man is football player, 1t is no rea-
son he should not be up in his work at
the school, but if he spends a great part
OF his time training for a football team,
his professors should be ienient with
him and should be willing to spend a
few extra hours in helping hi malong.
Denver May Open Fight Game.
A strong effort is being made to open
the fight game at Denver. Politics
killed the sport there, as it has in many
another city, and with the election out
of the way there seems TO be a general
demand toward the reopening of the
game. From present Indications all the
factions in Denver-and there are more
there than in any other city in the
world-seem to be united for the good
of the game Dick Hyland is now at
Denver and is being held Witl a view
of matching him with Packy McFar-
land or Cyclone Thompson as the open
ing card Either match would make
good one. IL the uShlinS interests are
successful in reopening the game, some
good fights will be pulled off and the
sport will prosper until rival club pro-
motors begin quarreling among them
selves. There may be no indications
of such thing at the present time, but
there will be as soon as someone goes
ahead and makes a success of the game.
Some outsider viii desire to butt in and
spoil a good thing, and when he does.
instead of being told where TO head in
at, he viii be helped along by those
who should be the first to help put him

Liquor Dealers on strike.

New York, Jan. 25.--The strike
of the tenement jewellers of the East
side was but trivial thing com
pared with the latest calamity that
threatens New York. A dryness like
unto that OF the Sahara will envelop
the metropolis, unless the brewers
recede from their demands for an
increase of 81 n barrel in the price
of beer. As an alternative, the
doors of the saloons will be locked
and the white-robed he-angels Of
Bacchus will depart and be known
in their accustomed haunts no more.
And the convivia New Yorker, un-
less he be of the wine-bidding or
cocktail-consuming class, will be de-
prlyed OF his accustomed foamy bev-
erage, and, perforce, so sober to bed,
IT'S a dreary prospect offered by this
threatened strike OF the saloon
hbtptlS - anu llht muSb Hluutlu Va
lamities, it is due to the wicked and
grasping Vaccinations Of a trust"
The alleged combination Of New
York brewers is held responsible for
tho present crisis and their nefa-
rious tactics may become the subject
of a legislative investigation. If it
has no other result the incident
may supply inspiration to the pro-
hibitionists, The liquor dealers
have declared solemnly against a
business devoid OF profit Moral,
deprive them OF profit and the traf-
fic will be effectually squelched.
Easy, isn't 1t?

Dickinson Leaves,

newspaper correspondent, who spent
three months in the Panhandle coun-
try studying conditions for use Of a
newspaper and magazine syndicate,
left this morning for his home in
Oklahoma City. When asked what
he thought Of the Panhandle, Mr.,
Dickinson replied:
Il tink it is a wonderful coun-
try Its agricultural possibilities are
practically unlimited, and in the
course Of time every large tract Of
land on the plains will be cut into
small farms. when that day comes
you may expect great results, Your
towns and cities will grow like mag
ic; your banks and mercantile houses
will reap a harvest, and your land
agents will then marvel at the "sto-
ries" they once told, for their Wild
est exaggerations will have become
substantial Realities.
"The only great project that con-
cerned ME during may stay was the
establishment OF national park and
game preserve, and your enterpris-
ing people should not let It fail for
want OF financial support This
would be a great pity The canyon
is truly a wonderful rent In the
earth, and should. in my opinion, be
secured as a national monument for
coming generations, This can be &C.
complished II tho people will only
make an effort at this time.
81 shall watch with more than
usual interest the progress made
along this line. II you fail to re-
ceivc favorable legislation at this
