KILL OR CURE.

The following is a little incident
that DIR. S., a well-known special
list of Manhattan, tells as an actual
experience:
"A Jewish man called to see me
one day and stated that he was tired
OF paying doctor bills for his wife and
wanted me to take the case, and, as
he put it, ! was to kill or cure her
for one hundred dollars. / attended
the woman for two or three weeks,
when she died.
in course Of time the bill was
rendered for $500, and the following
day the husband called. He counted
out ten ten-dollar notes, handed me
a paper to sign, which read, Received
OF J: R. the sum of $Ioo for kill

BURTkEss HAS
QUIT HIS JOB
Resigns Position as Coach of
Central High School Foot
ball Team

Through the dissatisfaction Of the
members of the Central high school
football team which escaped and got
to the ears of o. B. Burtness, coach
of the team, there was shakeup in
local football circles and yesterday
the big man, who has guided the Cen
trail lads On their supposedly path
of fortune, gave vent to hearsay ev-
idence and eliminated his carcas
from the high school gridiron, throw
ing up his grip on the sponge to an
other coach for whom search war
rant has been issued.
While the transition was not as
rapid as this would indicate, it was
indeed very rapid change and those
who were wont to look on Burtness as
the invincible when it came to play
ing football, are now somewhat in
different since 1t has been learned
that the change was deemed neces-
sary on the part of the members of
the Central team. 1t is understood
that the members of the high school
athletic board were we'll satisfied with
the way Burtness was running things,
tain OF the "U" warriors confined his
legality of the plays than the requis-
ties necessary to win contest, which
was natural since legal football would.
be more in keeping with his everyday
profession.
At any rate Burtness did not fill
the bill and he got wind of 1t in time
to resign from his official position.
Director Miller was out last evening
and the boys worked hard to get in
line for the game with Devils Lake
which will be played here next Sat
urday. Just who will be the coach
of the team Is not now known, but
an effort will be made to get Physical
Instructor Glow of the university to
carry on the work.
The whole affair is not the result
of any quarrel on the part of the
team or Coach Burtness and every
thing was done in business-like way.
The boys were dissatisfied and Mr.
Burtness, learning of their dissatis-
faction, knew that it would be impos-
sible for them to go on and play foot
ball. as he desired them to play, so
resigned. While the people are in
clined to claim that the high school
boys wanted to run things to suit
themselves, still this is not so, as they
are all boys of reasonable intelli-
gence and willing to learn. 1t is only
a case of dissatisfaction which is
bound to arise and while the people
thought Burtness must have been a
good coach to produce team which
could do such good work against the
university aggregation, still it Is the
hope that another coach can be Sc
cured that will do even better than
Mr.. Burtness and that this little up
set will not have any effect on the
championship possibilities Of the Cen
trail high school football team.
