CURING CONSERVATIVES.
New York's State Hospital Issues
Most Encouraging Report.

Raybrook state hospital in New
York state for the treatment of incipi-
ent tuberculosis has now passed the
experimental state, according to the
report of the special committee of the
state board of charities.
The large amount of recoveries re-
ported from the institution. it is
claimed, shows the treatment to be
most effcacious, and especially when
the patients received are in the incipi-
ent stages. In addition to its curative
work, the committee claims that it is
also doing educational work, the cured
patients repeating to their friends at
home the lessons learned in the hos
pital and also enforcing sanitary rules.
The main question now, the COM
mittee says, is, to determine who shall
be admitted.
Speaking of the institution, the re-
port says:
''It is not desirable to take patients
from their homes and circles Of friend
ship and place them in institutions
similar to Raybrook. Far better If
some local hospital be provided by the
cities or counties, Is these will give
the patients the opportunities which
they require"

Steffens, Chicago's Star Puts Up
Wonderful Game. 81 Fl

Chicago, Nov. 2. Playing the best
game of ball that they knew, but
fighting under the big handicap Of
inexperience, the University Of Min
nesota players went down before the
fast Chicago team at Marshall Field
Saturday afternoon by the heart
breaking score Of 90 too ss 81 5.a1 4
It was case of green players
against bunch Of veterans and the
older students of the game Of football
won. EEs
As individuals the gophers played
brilliantly but their crudeness told
against them as far as their work was
concerned and this brought about the
large score.
The Minnesota men were brave
enough before the game and even I'M
til battle started, but soon after the
maroons began to get in their work,
the gophers became bewildered and
for time it looked as though the
teamwork would go to pieces Every
man supporting the maroon and gold
was out to put forth the best that
was in him but it was apparent from
the start that the Chicago veterans
had it on DR.. Williams youngsters.
While the gophers played we'll to-
gether in the offense, the defense
proved ahard nut to crack. In car
rying the ball, the gophers shone as
stars at times and on several occa-
sions march was started for the
maroon's goal only to be stopped by
a firm stand on the part of Stages
men or a bad piece of work on the
part of the Minnesota man who was
carrying the ball.
On the third touchdown Chicago
made seventy yards on four passes
perfectly made. ~ -
Chicago's offense was brilliant, fast
and certain. Potentially Minnesota
has the better players but the Go
piers were undeveloped and crude.
Minnesota's play was haphazrd and
