CORNHUsKERs NOT CONFIDENT
Too Many C-ipp1es I'm the Lineup to
Suit Coach Cole.

LINCOLN, NEB., Nov. 6-(speciaD-Ne-
braska Is confident of defeating Ames at
Omaha tomorrow afternoon. The team has
several cripples in its lineup and will enter
the contest in poor condition for the hard
struggle that will be fought. Four OF the
varsity regulars are suffering from injur-
les that will probably prevent their exert
Ing themselves to their utmost. Cooke is
in the worst shape and will not he in the
game. He was out for practice this after
noon, but Coach Cole announced Onigh
that he would not let him enter the contest
quarter, did not report for practice today
and 1t is doubtful whether he will be able
TO play against Ames. His side Is paining
him q great deal and Coach Cole will not
use him unless Miner, who will start the
game at quarter, is forced to retire. Harte,
right tackle, received a sprained ankle at
practice yesterday and did not report this
expected that hts injured foot will give him
considerable trouble. Johnson left end, is
still suffering from bruises received at
Iowa City and 1t is doubtful whether he
will be able to play the entire game.
The final practice for the week was held
at Antelope park this afternoon. where the
Cornhuskers ran through signals for an
hour. A crowd of 800 rpoters who marched
from the university, led by the band, witt
messed the practice and cheered the team.
This crowd OF rooters practiced yells and
songs that are to be given at the game to-
morrow.
The C~ornhuskers went through the signal
and worked the team fast, keeping its mem

MISSOURI ON WAY + o DIES MONIES
Tigers Travel North to DO Battle with
Men OF Drake.

COLUMBIA, Mo-, Nov. 6.-(Special)-The
Tigers, headed by Coaches Monilaw and
Anderson, left Saturday night in a special
Pullman over the Wabash FOR Des Moines,
Ia, where they play Drake University Sat
urday. Missouri rooters gave them a
rousing send-off, and over 500 bowling stu
dents followed them from the mass meet
All week the Tigers have been resting,
rather than scrimmaglng, in preparation
for the Drake game. Their showing
against Ames last Saturday proved that
they lacked condition, and had gone some
what stale, They were pointed for the Iowa
contest and had never sufficiently recovered
from that gruelling game. SO to prevent
rested his men and did not take a single
chance for an increase in the hospital list
by scrimmage. Six coaches have been on
the field every night, however, singing
out the men and teaching them the finer
points of their positions. Besides Monilaw
and his chief assistant, Anderson, the
Tigers have been learning things from
Lowman and Howell class team coaches
s snd old sDT 9,laSyfersSji T Dri Blu B,S urak Dl a
Gibson, former s~ub-quarter on Harvard,
who is now in the university faculty and
who is full of pop and ginger.
When asked about the probable outcome
of the game Saturday, Coach Monilaw re-
fused to be quoted, He said, however, that
Drake, his old school, and the one he used
to coach, would like mighty well TO rub ii
in to him, and he anticipated a hard game
He seems most worried over the physical
condition of the men, and Is taking sew
eral veterans along, Ristine, Driver and
Graves among them, who are still crippled
and in poor shape for such a hard game.
SAveral shifts have been made In the
Omaha daily bee., 1908-11-07

varsity lineup this week that may improve
the fighting strength. Anderson will
henceforth use his 25 pounds at left guard,
replacing Carothers, and 'Tubby' Graves
will go in at left tackles, where he has
played for two years, thus leaving his
former place at fullback to be fought out
by Wilder and Ewing. With these excep-
lions, the varsity will lineup against Drake
as against Ames, as follows: Driver Q55),
left end; Graves QST, left tackle; Ander-
son (2O5), left guard; Ristine Q7s), center;
Captain Miller dS6). right guard; Bluck
(22S), right tackle; Nee Q76), right end;
Deatherage (142), quarter; Gilchrist Q6l),
left half: Alexander Q6f, right half; Wilder
(173), fullback.
other men who will probably get in the
game are: Hill Q69), center; Roberts Q94l
and Carothers QS0, guards; Cove O75) and
Barnes QS4), tackles; Williams Q64 and
Burress Q7O) ends; Saunders QS0 and
Trowbridge Q3S), quarters; Grain Q61) and
Cook 065), halves; and Ewing G7D, full
back.
The team will arrive in the Iowa capital
/ Friday morning, and will Timber up at the

BELLEVUE is BADLY BRUISED
PrRcticing Hard for Peru-secOnd
Team Plays Dundee.


with the Bellevue-Peru game oniy a
week off the foot ball squad at Bellevue
Is doing the hardest kind of practice and
struggle next Saturday.
There are a good many disCouragements
before the team and unusual effort will be
necessary to win from the husky State
Some new plays were introduced this
week, but practically. the same system
being more to perfect what is already being
used than to learn new formations.
A most discouraging development at pres
ent Is a crippled knee of the fullback, En-
field. Last season he was bothered at
times with a dangerously swollen knee and
been developing. AT present Enfield is I'M
dergoing electrical treatment In Omaha, no
one at Bellevue being able to more than
guess whether or not he will be ready for
Peru when they come onto the gridiron.
If Bellevue pulls through the season vic
torious 1t will be more than a credit to
the men who play. For, a college team to
lose two halfbacks in succession by broken
bones, sometimes the quarter and captain
and likely the fullback for the heavy game
team to the utmost.
The Peru aggregation will prove a hard
nut for Bellevue TO crack. Already victori-
Gus over Doane, usually Beilevue's strong
est enemy, they will come to Bellevue ready
to win II there be the smallest possibility
OF doing, SO, The misunderstanding that
developed between Bellevue and Peru last
year will incite the Peruvians to play their
best ball of the season on the Bellevue
gridiron. In order that the team and stu
dents might attend the Ames-Nebraska
game at Omaha Manager Hamblin has not
scheduled any game for today. Practice
will be held on the Bellevue gridiron this
morning and the school will go to Omaha
after dinner. The second team, however,

ADJUSTMENTS.
Buster Brown.

Master Jimmie Rosen displayed the fact at the Jefferson theatre last night that real, live Buster Brown did exist, while Al Grady proved just as conclusively that Tige was also a re- ality. While Jimmie is not the origi- nal Buster who appeared in Buster Brown" he is equally as clever, his size being in perfect accord with the pictures drawn by Outcault, while his facial expressions and smile were splendid.
 The balance of the cast was fairly good Matte Lockett as Mary Jane Minnie Lee as Susie Sweet. Fred Will son as Gladys OFlynn and Leo Hays as Rocky O'Hare, being especially so. The chorus was good looking and very lively. The impersonation of "Tige" by Al Grady was really remarkable.
 A had habit which has come upon the Jefferson theatre lately is too small supply of programmes. During the past few weeks it has repeatedly been the case that there were not enough pro- gramnes to go ar,und and last night with only small house there were not half enough.

Decide on Primary Date.

The democratic executive committee met this evening in the council room and April II was decided upon as the date on which to hold the primary. The fol- lowing members of the committee were present: Chairman T. Y. Huffman. George Ross. Percy Benton, A. D. Maddox, Steve Durick, Harry Palmer, H. W. Sweet and Rush Randle. MT. Mundis was the only member of the committee that was ab- sent.
 The question as to the offices to be put on the ticket came up for discussion and it took considerable time. The following will be placed on the ticket when it is made up: Mayor, chief of police, city clerk, day warden, sanitary inspector and street foreman. The other offices to be filled will be left to the council to ap- point.
 Some of the members of the commit tee were in favor of having every paid office placed on the ticket when it is made up, but this did not seem to meet with the approval of majority of tine members. me question of registrars was also discussed and it was decided that the number could not be appointed from the fact that the City Council will have to pass on the changing of the ward lines at their next meeting, which will be on March 1T.
 Inst at present there are four wards but it is believed that another one will be added and in that case there will have to be five registrars instead of four, as has always been the custom. Under the new code each voter will vote in the ward in which he resides, and for that reason a registrar will have to be appointed for each ward A special committee, con- slsting of Rush Randle, Henry Palmer and A. D. Maddox, was appointed to get up plans for the primary and they will submit their report at the next meeting, which takes place on the evening of March %

cHINAMAN ESCAPES.
Lands at Mobile Without Permission
 and Eludes Federal Officers.

Montgomery, March GA special to the Advertiser from Mobile says: The first case of the kind since the ex- elusion law went into effect is the report of the escape from a vessel of Chinese sailor, who has succeeded in eluding all United States and local police authorities, and it now begins to look as if he will never be captured, as the master of the vessel has been released, no blame being attached to him.
 The law does not allow sailor to land, and when the captain discovered that one of his men was missing he reported the case to the United States authorities He was placed under arrest, and later he was released. The steamship from which the Chinese escaped is the Gretavale, which has cleared for Panama following the captains release.
