vania plays Brown today and the Red and
Blue Will have TO play good foot ball to
win. The Brown team arrived last might.
Coach Gammons said that his team this
year is just as good if not better than
last season. and that all his men are in
very good condition. 1t is evident that
Gammons is looking for a Brown victory
today.
The Penn team will be without thu serv-
ices of keinath at quarter and Manner
a ha!fback. They are both laid up with
injuries. while Hollenback is not in good
condition. Yesterday the line men We're
given hard drilling on the charging ma
chiQe. and three cOachers worked over
them all afternoon trying to get the line
into some kind of concerted form. Lack,
of uniform charging by the line has been
serious weakness of the Penn team this
year. With the back field upset Penn is
awaiting the game with a good deal of
anxiety. Al the last minute Lamberton
has been removed from left guard and
Dietrich substituted. The latter is faster
but not so strong player Lamberton.
Harvard Captain Out.
CAMBRIDGE. Mass, October 1.-THE
Harvard coaches have made changes in
the varsity lineup for the game with
Springfield Training School today. The
Harvard captain was given a rest and
may not play today. Smith at left half
back has been replaced by Forchheimer.
The latter originally played tackle and is
rather slow for the position. His work
in signal drill was better than earlier in
the week and he formed better interior
ence. Gill Browne played left end.
Browne was sub end last year. The in
tense heat made it hard for the men to
run fast. Scrimmage was not attempted.
Corbett was decidedly off color He
could not start with the bail. White was
fast and did not mind the heat as much.
The forward pass was worked continual
~. Cutler was not always sure of his
range, but Browne and Crowley covered
well. New formations have been de-
veloped and the game today will see sew
eral innovations with the forward pass
featuring. The Harvard backs cannot
gain against heavy line and the coaches
have given the greater part of the week
to perfecting the team in forward passing
and in defense. Mckay has improved in
recent practice
Dawson Gets Old Place.
PRINCETON. n. j., October 1.-The
squad was given light work yesterday on
account of the heat and today's game
with Virginia Polytechnic. No scrim-
mage was held. but the preliminary work
was put through rapidly. Tackling the
dummy kept the men busy for some time.
men the varsity prayers were ulNiuSO
into two lines and drilled in defensive
tactics. Tie signal practice was long
and thorough.
The shifting of men in various posi-
tons still continues. Dawson was taken
from end and given his old position at
quarterback. He was substituted for
Dillon last year. and 1t seems to be the
opinion of the coaches that he is the
best available for the place this
year. as he runs the team we'll. Buck
ingham will be played again at end.
Head Coach Roper is trying him out very
carefully at that troublesome position.
WEIGH will play the other wing. The
back fed will consist OF Coke, Read,
Smith and possibly Dillon.

sion inserted in the bill by Mr.. Nelson
of Minnesota. Mr.. Nelson had a let
ter read saying that while irons were
supposed to be eliminated from the
navy as matter OF punishment, they
are still used.
When the bill had been nearly COM
pleted Senator Piles of Washington
offered an amendment increasing the
number of battleships from two to
four, asking at the same time final
consideration of this measure be post
poned until tomorrow
Senator Hale believed the senate
had made UP its mind about that mat
ter, but as two or three senators
wanted to speak on the subject. he
favored postponing consideration of
the amendment until tomorrow.

HOSPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
Many Changes and q New Corps OF
Nurses as the Institution.

Nurses at the Institution.
The Occur d'Alene hospital. since
the new management-Doctors Hunt
err and Dorland-have assumed
charge, has undergoneh number OF
changes and improvements.
The entire interior of the building,
with the exception OF the halls, has
received a fresh coat of kalsomining
and paint and presents a neat and at
tractive appearance. The rooms and
wards on the first and second floors
have been provided with new fixtures
and all necessary furnishings and
supplies contributing to the comfort
of patients, and the institution Is now
prepared to comfortably and COM
pletely care for as many as SIS pa
tients. Many changes and improve
ments have been made in the kitchen
and laundry, situated In the base
ment, and a number more are to be
made. The management plans in the
near future to convert the third floor
of the institution, which is not now
being used. into nurses rooms. At
them up and make 1t their headquaT-
tiers. The operating room has been
much improved, and with the arrival
OF new sterilizing outfit and operat-
ing table, will be completely modern.
The hospital is in charge of a new
staff of graduate nurses. Miss r.
McComb, for a number of years the
superintendent of nurses at the Still
water hospital in Minnesota, Is the
chief nurse. Two other nurses be-
sides are employed, Miss Fowler and
Miss Emma Wall, the latter being
Miss McComb's assistant. 1t is the
plan of Miss McComb to conduct dur
ing the summer a training school for
nurses. A two-year course will be
given and a graduate from it will be
competent and fit to assume the POI
sition of nurse in any hospital.
The institution is of a public char
acter, and with its present equipment
and stan of nurses is in a position
to successfully treat and care for all
kinds of cases.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April "a
The Illinois democracy adopted the
unit rule and instructed it's delegates
to the national convention at Denver
to vote for William ]. Bryan and to
use all honorable means" to secure
his nomination.
After a hot fight in the resolutions
committee. which was carried into
the convention, the party adopted a
platform plank declaring in favor OF
the greatest possible personal liber-
ty to individuals, provided such lib
erty did not infringe upon the rights
of other people.
The plank is as follows:
I'VE believe that orderly customs
and habits long pursued should not
be disturbed by intolerance, and we
hereby declare in favor of that funda-
mental doctrine Of democracy and
free government which gives to the
individual the largest measure OF
personal liberty SO long as he does
not infringe on the personal rights OF
others. We are opposed to all sump-
tuary laws"
Send Eight Delegates.
Instead of naming the usual four
delegates and alternates at large to
the national convention, It was de-
eided to send eight. allowing each
man one-half OF a vote. Two presi-
Dental electors at large were also
| chosen.
The resolution indOrsing Mr.. Bry-
an was adopted with enthusiasm and
fattering demonstration followed
the action. For all that. however. Il

The convention, however. showed
sincere enthusiasm for Bryan. When

was greeted with cheers. The APP

gates from other counties than Cook

Roger c. Sullivan, who dominated
the convention from first to last. did
not applaud Bryan's name at any
time, but Sullivan Is not the kind OF
man who is given 10 applause OF

HELIE CURSES REPORTERS
Prince DE sagan Chafes at Constant
Surveillance.

NAPLES, April "a Declaring
that he had been driven almost to
desperation, Prince Helie de Sagan
last night left the hotel at which he
had been staying and took an apart
ment in the Corso Vittorio Emmanu-
ele under the name of Louis Peri
CORD. He expressed regret at the de-
lay of the steamer Friedrich der
Crosse, on which Madame Anna
Gould is passenger, which is
thought due to arrive at o'clock to-
night. Its arrival, he said, would
mean protection from being victim
lied by damned reporters OF two
hemispheres."
In trying to escape the close watch
the newspaper men have placed on
him the prince drove along the To-
ledo sea front, but soon discovered
that his driver was in league with the
cab drivers of his pursuers, signals
passing between them by means of
NuCAA Whipb.
This was early in the day, and he
returned at once to his hotel, where
he found several kilograms awaiting
him. Later he discussed with the ho-
tel clerk the possibility of securing
for today after the arrival of the
Friedrich der Crosse an automobile
with a chauffeur whom he could
trust not to be signaling his move
ments to spies"
The prince went to the theater
last evening, but soon realized that
all the convenient places near him
were occupied by reporters. He left
in disgust, exclaiming:
II thought 1t impossible to be
worse treated than in America"
The prince has negotiated a mag
nificent apartment from today at
Bertolini's Palace hotel, which dom
mates Naples, and from which a
splendid view of the gulf and Mt.
Vesuvius may be had. It is pre-
sumed that the apartment has been
engaged for Madame Gould

Home builder Wine 10 ASe Equipped
and Operated This Season.
A reduction plant Is to be Installed
at the Home Builder, a quartz-gold
mine situated about 10 miles east of
the city, this summer for develop
ment work. The company intends
to begin the erection OF the plant
as soon as possible, and will make
IL of sufficient size so that a large
tonnage of ore can be handled. A
quantity Of low-grade ore is said to
be now on the dump. and Is said
to be uniformly soft. making Its min
ing easy. There are two dikes bear
ing free gold. one of which has been
extensively developed by a tunnel
and the ore thoroughly tested by the
cyanide method. A number OF the
assays have averaged a value of SO
ton in gold.
The property was discovered about
seven years ago and located by Wal
ter C. Brewer. A number OF Occur
d'Alene people are interested In the
property. The property is so located
that it is within seven miles Of a
steamboat landing. and no diffieuity
will be experienced In placing the
machinery on the ground.

Heard Petitions In Grecnacrea and
McGulrc school District Cases.

Heard Petitions In Grecnaeres and
Mcclure school District Cases.
The board of county commission
ers have completed the work OF this
session and adjourned until May IL.
The last business to be transacted
by the board was the examination Of
road petitioned for In the Spirit
Lake country. near what Is known
as the Mrs, Horton farm. The eIti-
Gems OF that locality had petitioned
for two roads, one OF them leading
across the right OF way OF the Black
well road, and the other taking a d.
rection 40 as 10 avoid crossing the
road. In order 10 cross the right OF
way II would be necessary to con-
struct bridge over a cut. and II was
this matter that the board went TO
investigate. After an examination OF
the matter the board concluded that
a road crossing the right Of way
would make the best road and accom-
modate the greatest number OF peo-
pie, and the petition for 1t was acted
upon favoFably. The bridge 70 be-
constructed viii be Of a height OF
about 20 feet. but the cut which Il
crosses II Is fet in depth. 30 that the
bridge itself will be about seven feet
high.
Another matter that came up for
consideration before the board to-
ward the last OF It's session was the
school controversy existing between
McGuires, Greenacres aud Post Falls.
Both McGuireB and Greenacres are
q part OF the present Post Falls
school district. Both had petitioned
the board 10 be severed from Post
Fails and to be created into new dis
triets. McGuires In It's petition asked
TO have included IN It's proposed dis
trict n portion OF the limits OF the
town Of Post Falls. This. according
TO the opinion Of the prosecuting at
tornsy. could not be legally done, and
while no action has been taken BY the
board upon IL. the petition will prob
ably be denied ON this ground. The
petition OF GreenacTes asked 10 have
included In its district q portion OF
what Is known as Sucker Lake dis
triet. The portion asked for was OF
= size large enough to make the
Sucker Lake district OF q size smaller
than that required by law. according
to the Interpretation OF the law by
the county attorney. and on this
ground at the next meeting OF the
board this petition will probably be
denied
Among other matters of interest
acted upon by the board In the latter
part OF It's session was the decision
TO advertise for bids for the Santa
bridge June In the time set foi
the opening Of the bids Something
like 10 years ago a bridge was con.
structed across the st. MArieB whers
this bridge h TO be constructed. bui
the timbers In Il have become decayee
and made Il unsafe. and the board
after a thorough investigation Of Il
decided 20 construct a new one in ia
place.

No Direct Interest IN the Squabble
OUer Morocco.

Washington, Sept. Count Hatzfedt. the
German charge d'affaires, in the course of
visit to the State Department to-day called at
tention the Berlin dispatch indicating 1t to
be the opinion of the government that the
speedy recognition of Mulaf Ha1g as Sultan of
morocco by the signatories of the Algeciras con-
ference would be in the interest of peace. Count
Hatzfeldt did not present any formal note. from
the German Foreign Office
The attitude of the State Department in this
matter appears to be one of expectancy and in
dicates a disposition to await developments
The United States was a signatory to the Alge-
c1ras conference but accompanied this with
a declaration that in accepting the applica-
ton of its regulations and declarations to Amer
lean citizens and interests in Morocco, it did
so without assuming obligation or responsible
ity for their enforcement.
American commercial interests in Morocco
are very small, and her citizens in that country
are those who became naturalized in the United
States and then went to Morocco. The United
States Is without any political interest in that
section of the world, and consequently is mold
ing aiocf from political squabbles in which Eu-
ropean countries may have become engaged It's
purpose in taking part IN the Algeciras confer
ence was to obtain for all peoples the widest
equality of trade and privilege in Morocco and
to assist the institution of reforms IN tnat
country tending to insure cordiality of inter
course without and stability of administration
within for the common good In ratifying the
work of the conference the Senate resolved
among other things that it be understood thaI
the participation of the United States therelh
was without intention to depart from the pohcy
which forbade participation by the. Unte0
States in the settlement of political questions
entirely European in character
