Such was the delectable menu of
the delicious banquet rendered by
st. Elmo Lodge, Knights of Pythias,
to the talent who took part in the
K. p. minstrel performance of
week ago. l. w. Healy made an
ideal chef and great credit was due
him in the able manner in which he
conducted the banquet part of the
evenings entertainment. He and his
able corps of walters handled the
seventy-five guests with quickness
and precision worthy of old exper-
fenced hands.
F. O. Hellstrom acted as toast
master, and filled the position with
a grace and ease worthy of Chauncey
Depew. Before the guests were
seated at the long tables he raped
for ordr and announced that Sir
Knight A. c. Hinckley had presented
to the lodge the gavel which he held
in his and. The gavel was presented
to Mr.. Hinckley recently by his nep-
hew who is a member of Uncle SANDS
navy. The wood was taken from
parts of different Spanish ships cap
tured or sunk by our navy in the
late Spanish-American war.
Many of the guests and the Sir
knights were called upon after the
inner man had been satisfied, to re-
spond to toasts. Among them were:
Messrs. Bedette of Chicago, Sellins,
Burke, Best, Winslow, Casselman,
Anger, Thompson, Jones, Steele,
O'Connor, Smith, Welsh, Chambers
and Laist. Mr.. Hellstrom interspers-
ed the toasts by remarks made in the
| happiest vein, which. were both time
ly and appropriate.
| DR.. Chambers said that as soon as
he was apprised of the fact that the
X. P.'s were to give banquet to
| the minstrels, he Immediately got
busy preparing an "extemporaneous
speech for the occasion, but unfor-
tunately he had lost his notes at the
rehearsal of the MERRY Dairymaids'
and therefore could not respond as he
wished.
H. S. Smith said that at one time
| every one in the world bore the name
of Smith, but as soon as they com
mitted some action that did not NEE
with the appropriation of the world
their name was changed to something
else. His name was still Smith.
Walter Sellens said that the loca
treasury of the lodge was some S75(
better off as receipts of the three
minstrel performances which hav'
been given by the order so that thu
shows were a success financially a.

TOUCHED 500 SAFE
TERiOUSLY DISAPPEARS AT
VALLEY CITY.

Valley City, N. D., May 6-The local
500 authorities and the police have
been much mystified over the disap-
pearance from the safe at the office of
that road last Thursday of $316. A
search warrant was issued by Judge
Smith and all the newspapers enjoined
to silence and a gumshoe hunt began
for the missing coin, but it has not yet
been found. The search warrant was
of no avail, and the missing coin is
yet missing.
E. w. Davis is the day man at the
500 station at North Valley City, and
turned it over to Frank Cores, who
put it in the safe. There was $240 in
currency and SIG in two checks. II
was in a large envelope and directed
to the First National bank of Mime
apolis.
Mr.. Goers placed the money in the
safe, which, it appears, wa snot lock
ed Several people had access to the
room where the safe was, and might
have taken the envelope. The search
warrant failed to develop either clue
or money, and the officials are com
pletely mystiied. They do not ap
pear to have struck the faintest clue

Yale fullback, is certain to be shin
ing figure this year because Of his
scientific kicking and spectacular line
tearing plunges. He it was who made
Theodore Roosevelt. Jr., leave the
Harvard freshman team and stop
football playing forever. Coy was on
the Yale freshman team and had the
Yale scheme Of play changed so that
he would be the man to handle the
presidents son when the Harvard
backs We're trying an end run. Coy
went at Teddy junior, who was play
ing end, in such an earnest way that
young Roosevelt was soon forced to
retire. Coy performed that feat two
years ago at the age Of eighteen.
Adolph w. Schulz, the great center
rush Of the Michigan team, is just the
opposite of Coy. He is the ponderous
anchor of the team, who must crouch
In the line and receive the brunt of
the attempts to ''buck the CENTER" in
which attempts as many members Of
the opposing team as possible partici-
pate. Schulz has been known to
stagger headlong through a team with
from three to six men clinging to
him. Two of the team captains who
are now attracting especial attention
are Quarterback Eddie Dillon of
Princeton and the greatest quarter
back Of the year, Walter P. Steffen
of the University of Chicago. The
quarterback is the handspring Of an
eleven. He gives the signals that in
dictate what maneuver is to be exc
cuted and passes the ball from the
center to the runner who carries it.

our little blue eyed curly locks.' The
forward pass allows players to throw
the ball toward their enemy's goal,
which was not allowed prior to the
great reformation when the Luthers
and Calvins Of the football world rose
to their zenith Of power and when
President Roosevelt summoned the
rulers Of the game to the White House
for consultation. This year the for
ward pass is being used in striking
new combinations and in trick plays
calculated to bewilder opposing play
ers. Tossing the ball many yards
along the gridiron necessarily causes
the men to separate, makes for pro-
nounced openness and contributes to
the uncertainty of the sport. Under
the best circumstances a football is
difficult to catch, and in the forward
pass men have to catch long passes
while running, sometimes at top speed.
The ION side kick" has also been
greatly developed. This feature was
introduced in it's present nature
through a modification Of the rules
governing kicking and recovering
kicked balls, and by thus increasing
the kicking side Of the game still
more openness resulted. With the
game made open it follows that the
players must be speedier. Resultant
~ there is greater demand for fast,
Wiry, comparatively light men than
ever before. It is only in the three
center men, the two guards and the
center rush that pronounced weight
is an absolute requisite. In days past
the three backs, who are the principal
ball carriers, and the tackles were
generally required to have from ten to
twenty-five pounds more weight than
demanded today.
Consequently Che teams of today do

oy TNGDENINh X 1OOT1bS,
" YER since President Eliot of Har-
ward university declared that no
IL gentleman could play football
and since President Nicholas
Murray Butler of Columbia university
stated that the game is an academic
nuisance the followers and admirers Of
this soul stirring, nerve tingling sport
have been multiplying, all of which in
dicates that reformers come and re-
formers 60, but football goes on for
ever. However, the reformers have
left their marks on the game, the only
pastime that successfully rivals base
bali in popularity.
Responding to the tremendous pres
sure brought to bear on them, the grid
iron solons have produced a sterilized
brand of football that retains the spec
tacular features Of the old game, adds
some new ''thrillers'' and yet emascu-
lates it in degree to lessen the bone
crushing tendencies. The developments
Of the reformed game will make the
playing of this season more "open"
and considerably faster than that of
past years. While this desired end
was possible to be gained last year, it
was not generally reached because of
the short period the new rules had
been in effect.

A Striking New PLAY.

"Openness" in football means that
players are kept somewhat separated
from each other during action-that is,
players of the attacking team. An
open game is directly opposite to a
style of game where the players Of the
attacking team are massed together
The wiping out to considerable de-
gree Of the terrifcally powerful mass
ing Of muscular football giants and
hurting them at Individual opponents
has necessarily resulted in bringing
into existence plays to take their place.
These new plays, which are striking
feature of last years and this years
operations and are now perfected in
manner of execution, enable the aver
age spectator to derive considerably
more pleasure from the game. The
forward pass is the stellar exhibit Of
the football reformers. They point to
1t and proudly say, '"This is our child,

New Titles For Meals.

In an effort to give variety to every
thing about their house the managers
Of a smart suburban hotel near New
York do not call the three regular dali
~ meals by the old names of break
fast, lunch and dinner. On the bill of
fare appear the names "morning,

almost any moment. All this con-
tributes to the value Of the game from
the spectators viewpoint.
Several new alterations in the rules
to lessen chances Of injuries to play
ers have been introduced this year.
Added restrictions have been placed
on the use of the hands in attempts to
Illustrate execution of the forward
pass; also the intermission between
the halves has been increased from ten
to fifteen minutes. While this gives
exhausted players longer time to re-
cuperate and avoid results of over
exertion, the spectators will not appre-
c1ate 1t. Pneumonia is the handmade
en- Of football. Hundreds of cases oc-
cur because Of the long exposure of
thousands Of people to fall winds and
temperatures. Any increase Of the
length Of a game or intermission is in
advisable.
Has an Economic Value.
In spite of the number Of deaths and
injuries occasioned, football is of a
vast economic value to this nation. It
has materially increased the attend
ance at our colleges. It Is the greatest
advertising medium of the college
world. 1t makes college life attractive
to players as we'll as to nonplayers,
who like to associate with the much
lauded gridiron heroes. The enormous
profits accruing from the contests,
where from twenty to forty thousand
people pay high admission prices, en-
able many colleges to maintain gym
nasiums, rowing crews, hockey teams,
etc., that they otherwise could not af-
ford. Large sums Of money are thus
put into circulation, the health of al
most the entire student body is bene-
flied, and hundreds Of men find en-
ployment. The tuition fees of students
attracted to colleges by football swell
the incomes Of these colleges, contrib
uting to their stability. Yes, football
has economic value.
The American football frenzy has a
deep national significance. The game
had its origin in Greece and f1ourished
under the name of phenida (feinting)
when the Hellenic empire was at it's
height. 1t was in crude form played
in Rome and called falls in the times
Of the Caesars. Now Great Britain
and the United States are it's homes.
Football is thus seen to have become a
favorite pastime of strikingly militant

Largely a Trick Game.

The changes in football rules have
effected an alteration in the basic ma
ture of the game. Football today is
largely trick game, whereas former
ly trick plays were exceptions. The
forward pass and theaSn side kick are
essentially trick plays, and their vari-
ations are likewise. Trick plays are
always uncertain, and therefore the
