Nov. 21-Wisconsin at Madison,
Football prospects at the University
OF Chicago are not brilliant. Tbs
souad is the smallest since 1901 and
the quality of the line material is the
noorest since that year. AT the close
Of the football season for 1907 seven-
teen men were presented with the 'C
insignia. All but six OF these nave
either graduated or are ineligible or
have failed to return. Three OF tne
remaining six "C' men played regu-
larry on last years team and three
were substitutes. The names Of these
men are as follows
Captain Steffen, 15S pounds, quar-
ter back.
Iddings, 1853 pounds, half back.
Page, $50 pounds, end.
The substitutes were:
Hoffman, $50 pounds, tackle.
Schommer, 173 pounds, end.
Worthwine, 165 pounds, guard.
A, valuable addition to this has ar
rived in the perron of Tom Kelly, $50
pounds, who played tackle on the 1906
team Kelly was laid UP with rheu-
matism last year, and was unable to
return to college He has still some
| trouble with his "sciatica," but is
hopeful that it viii not seriously
bother him this season. In new ma
terial Chicago is quite badly off. The
freshman class last year was the poor

many years, and to add to our dls-
comfort a number of the freshman
players have failed to qualify from
q scholastic standpoint. We have two
promising players in Rogers 100

rounds who looks good for the back

lime material in Smith, 195 pounds,
who Is very fat and young; and Boh-
llander. 1856 pounds, who Is slow and
green It is likely that neither of these
i men will be able to fill the position in
the line unless they develop much
i faster than 1t appears possible from
j their present showing. The chances
now seem to indicate that the extra
line positions will be filled from las

RANGER RAVES IN HOTEL.
Edward j. Murphy, Augusta, Mont,
Hurried to Chicago Hospital.

Chicago Oct. Backward ]. Muir
ply, wealthy cattle man from Au-
gusta, Mont, was taken to the Peo-
Piles hospital last night by the police.
According to the E1lice he became
violent while in the dining room of
the Transit house, Forty second and
Halsted streets. The manager of the
hotel denied Murphy had been at the
hotel.
According to Christopher Linns, a
policeman detailed at the patrol wa
gon, it took two policemen to hold
Murphy while he was being taken
to the hospital.
Murphy came from Montana yes
terday. He met his wife and sister
in st. Paul and they came to Chicago
with him. He is said to have sold
several carloads of cattle.

is quite the equal Of Captain Steffen,
He is unsurpassed as q player and
rarely equaled as a tactician. In my
twenty five years experience as a
coach and player I have never seen
his equal as a dodger in point of
cleverness and ,resourcefulness sup
ported by splendid speed. In running
from his position he is in a class by
himself and I have never seen anyone
who could even approximate his
ability He. Is strong and accurate
and clever in making forward passes
He is safe, and deadly in his tackling.
He is unerring in his catching of
punts. And, above and beyond it all,
he Is an inspiring leader and a re-
sourcefur general.
Another very valuable player is Hal
Iddings, who can play equally well in
either half back position. Iddings Is
an ideal half back, being quick and
fast on his feet, very clever dodger
and an untiring worker. He can be
called upon repeatedly and always will
respond with a fine effort. He is
strong as an interferer and helper
and a born fighter extensively and de-
fens.vely. He knows the game thor
oughly, and is clever in all depart
ments of it. He can always be de-
pended upon to do; his level best

'MuRDERER'S PLEA IS

August Eberhard Will Be Put OF
Trial Next Week for
Killing Aunt.

Hackensack, N. j.. Sept. 14-Augus-
tus Eberhard, the oun grocer's clerk
who is charged with the murder of his
aunt, Mrs. Ottillie E~berhard, whom Is
lured to a lonely spot at Rochelle parry
on July l6 last, and after killing her.
robbie the body of 1920, will be placed
on trial here next week. The case Will
be called Monday and it is expected the
trial will proceed without delay
The cold blooded character of the
murder caused the crime to be widely
discussed throughout the country ana
the trial will be followed with close in
terest. The murdered woman had but
recently arrived in this COUNTRY from
Germany. According to the story told
by young Eberhard he had persuaded
cash and come to America in order
that he might marry her daughter
Upon their arrival in New York he OBJ
tanned rooms for them and then sug-
gested u trip across the river INTO New
Jersey. A binding storm came up
while they We're walking along the rail-
road tracks on the New Jersey side,
and this aided the designs OF the muir
derer. AS the TWO lnSuSpectlng women
were plodding along in front of him,
he drew his revolver, took careful aim
and fired. Mrs. Eberhard fell at the
first shot, but to make sure of her
death the assassin fired another shot
into her body as it lay on the tracks
i V nc N'HI III IaA VI 4'S ooeAA
and tried to kill her. She ran down
the tracks and escaped, while the muir
derer fed from the scene of his crime
1t was more than a week before young
Eberhard was found. In his confession
he stated that during that week he a
raveled as far west as Chicago, but.
had been irresistibly attracted again to-
the scene of his crime. When foun6
he was suffering from a slight bullet
wound, which he had inflicted upon
himself to give strength to a story he
had concocted to the effect that he and
his aunt had been attacked by Italians
While walking along the railroad
tracks. But a severe quizZing by the
police broke down his story and he is
said to nave made a full confession.
Nearly all of the money of his aunt
was found where he said he had buried
it.
Insanity undoubtedly will be the de-
Tense of the young self confessed MUIR
derer when he is placed on trial. His
father, it is said. will testify that in
sanity is hereditary in his family and
that the sister of young Eberhard is
now confined in an insane asylum.
The local authorities and the men
guarding Eberhard say they can see
no traces of insanity. Nevertheless, it
is probable that a commission may be
appointed to Xanine the prisoners
