time since the season opened. Prices for ducks

request and very firm to prices. In the pOul
try market newly arrived car of western
chickens and a portion of the car received on
Saturday were ON sale and met with fair in

the quota tions in that line were more or less
nominal. The feeling in young chickens was
one of frmness, while old stock was expected to

of the most beautiful and lesser known
ones:
"A mothers love is new every day"
"Better lose rich father than a poor
mother" a fathers love is only
knee deep. but a mothers reaches to
the heart" These three are German.
The Hindoos POLITICALLY say, Mother
mine, ever mine. whether be rich or
poor"
From the Italians we have: Mother.

none misses her.

Manager Clark Griffith Makes
Trade, Strengthening
Pitching Staff.
GETS KARGER AND ANOTHER

Local admirers of the Cincinnati
Reds are highly pleased over the first
official act taken by the Reds new
manager. Clark Griffith. late manager
OF the New York Americans. This
act was the trade of Catcher Schlei
20 St. Louis for Pitcher Karger and
either Pitcher Fromme or Lush.
FroIne win probable be selected to go
with Karger. BY this deal the weak
Cincinnati pitching staff will be great
~ strengthened and Cincinnati will
stfn have the excellent backstops, Nc
Lean and Pierce.
Cincinnati will lineup next season
about as follows:
Pitchers-Ewing. Campbell, Spade,
Dubec. Rowan. Karger and Fromme.
Catchers-McLean, Pierce
First Base-Hoblitzel.
Second Base-Huggins.
Shortstop-Lobert.
Third Base-Mowery.
Right Field-Mitchell.
Center Field-Paskert.
Left Field-Bescher or Kane, ....
Griffith has not yet fully decided
where he will play Lobert, but the
hard hitting speed merchant will prob
ably be found at shortstop. Griffith
may pull off some trades that will
change the outfield in one or two
places.

Councilman EngIebert States
That the PaIIadium's
Story Was Correct.
STREET MPROVEME NT
ENOUGH SPENT ON NORTH 9TH
STREET REPAIRS TO PAVE THE
THoRoUGHFARE- Paw
ING NORTH e STREET.

"The story recently published by the
Palladium that the city had not gov
erned in a business like manner is an
absolute fact. EVERYTHING in the ar
ticle was accurcto and true statement
Of facts. l ha. liked with several
council members ID they agree with
me In that" stated Councilman II. H
Englebert today.
I'm the past several years enough
money has been spent on making tenn
porary improvements on Eighth street
to pave that street nearly, if not its
entire length he said.
Mr.. Englebert also stated that the
reason council did not support the
board of public works in the move
ment to pave North E street from
Tenth street to Sixteenth street. was
because some of the councilmen did
not have the backbone to withstand
owners. He thinks that North Z
street should be paved to Sixteenth as
such an Improvement would save
money for the city.
Mr.. Englebert, in speaking of the
two large west side sewers constructed
this year, which cost the city alone ap
proximately $4,000, said that it was
right that the northwest sewer system
should have been constructed this veal
as this Improvement had for years
been promised the property owners in
that section of the city, but he
thought the building of the southwest
sewer system could have been postpon
ed a year Or two.
That section of the city has only
been a part of the city for two years
but since it has been incorporated into
the city it has had street improve
ments, fire alarm boxes, street light
ing and other improvements, the cost
of which I do not believe the taxes
paid by the property owners in that
part of the city equals

EARLHAM AWARDED
WITTENBERG GAME
Walter Camp Rules Against
Ohio Institution on
Winning Play.
REFEREES BAD DECISION.
ALLOWED OHIO COLLEGE, TOUGH
DOWN MADE AFTER HE HAD
DECLARED BALL OUT OF PLAY
MORE MEN GET "E."

Walter Camp, chairman of the foot
ball rules committee and the supreme
court of the great college game, has
awarded the Observation-Disclosures
game to Earlham, by a score of to 4.
Wtttenberg claimed to have won this
contest by a score of 10 to 6, but
Camp, in a letter to Coach Vail of
Earlham, states that the touchdown
made by Wittenberg can not be allow
ed, thus knocking six points off the
Lutherans' score. By Camps decision
which has been hailed with delight by
Earlham students, five more Quakers
are eligible for the varsity letter, max
ing sixteen all told who have won the
e" this year, by participating in win
wing games. .~...- 2 .-
In the Wittenberg game the regular
appointed referee failed to put in an
appearance and Wittenberg selected
one OF its former players to act as ref
cree. He was very incompetent and
was the cause Of much dissatisfaction
follows: .-
quarterback Jones Oh EarInan. MADE
= forward pass to one of the Quaker
backs. While the ball was in the air
the referee blew his whistle, declaring
the ball out Of play, holding it had not
been passed out the required five yards
from the point of play. However, the
ball missed the outstretched hands of
the Earlham back and a Wittenberg
seized 1t and ran the length of the field
putting 1t down back of the Quaker
goal line. Wittenberg then kicked
goal. 1t was pointed out to the ref
cree that he had called the ball dead
before it was seized by the Wittenberg
player, but he ruled that the touch
down be allowed. THE ball is out of
play the minute the referees whistle
is blown" Camp rules in his letter
TO Vail. He states that in the recent
Yale-West Point game a similar play
came up, but the referee called the ball
back, not allowing the touchdown.
