KANSAS CITY Y. M. C. A. DEFEATS
TOPEKA Y. M. c. A.
(By Arthur Hardy.l

Following is the account Of the foot
ball game between the Y. NJ. c. A.
teams of Kansas City, Mo-, and To-
peka. Kansas. Kansas City won the
toss and decided to take the ball. Cap
tain Jamison kicked of and the game
was on. Kansas City played old style
foot ball and by series Of line bucks
advanced the ball to Topeka's 15-yard
line. Although outweighed pounds
up and held the strong Kansas City
team for downs. With the ball in
their possession the Topeka boys as
founded the immense crowd by tneir
repeated gains through the use OF the
forward pass, time and time again
would the Missouri men tackle man
who they thought had the ball when,
in truth, the ball would be sailing
swiftly into waiting arms Of Simms,
Topeka's fast end. On account of the
excessive heat the halves were short
ened to 25 and 20 minutes, and in
that time Kansas City saw some OF
the fastest and cleverest football that
has ever been witnessed in the state.
Missouri lost the ball on a tumble,
and Topeka recovered the ball only to
have the referee blow his whistle for
the end of the half.
With the score 0 to 0 at the begin
ming of the second half, both teams
trotted to the field inspired by the
cheers Of the spectators. Ford. quar-
terback of Missouri, kicked the Dan
over the fence three or four times to
show the crowd that he was still in
old-time form. Cary for Topeka re-
ceived the ball on the next kick-off,
and made spectacular run. Kansas
City resolved to hold Topeka where
they were and 1t was impossible for
Topeka to get through their stonewall
defense. Both teams were heavily
penalized, although 1t was evident that
Topeka was not getting justice. On a
fake formation that resulted in a one
sided kick and which somewhat took
Topeka by surprise, Kansas City re
covered the ball. The Kansas City
team needed about Is yards to push
the ball over and with 10 minutes OF
play they accomplished feat that no
team has in three years. Score: Kan
sas City 5, Topeka 0.
The Topeka boys showed their new
er-die spirit and played good football
until the last moment Of play. The
half ended with the ball in Topeka's
possession.

Sam Langford has added to his list
another victim, Klondike Hayne, who
was knocked out in two rounds Tues
day, the second. In their former bout
Sam fought carelessly and was floored
twice in one round, which was some
thing no one has done in side Of two
years. Sam is trying to force Jack
Johnson into match with ten thou
sand dollar backing. think it is very
foolish of Sam to try and force, Jack
into fight with him, though it would
be a good fight to see. Little Sammie
had better let Mr.. Johnson take care

Nathaniel Marshal, a young Denver
ite, sprang into prominence few
months ago out on the coast as COM
ing bantam weight Kid Marshal came
back to Denver and went to Cheyenne,
where he was engaged in few bouts.
He is now matched to fight Kid Reed
of Denver for the bantam weight OF
Wyoming. Kid Marshal is fast on his
feet and can stand great deal OF
punishment and has knockout punch
in either hand. There is another one
of these Marshals making good and
that is Jessie. who is fighting out on
the coast and is gradually coming to
the front of the featherweight crown. A
few of Marshal's friends are going up
to Cheyenne and see the kid put Reed
to sleep They fight the middle Of

Jack Johnson, champion heavy
weight, has bought a home in Texas
for his mother and two sisters at the
cost of $4,000.
Jack Johnson inclosed ticket to Ed
Holland, true sportsman of Denver
to join him Immediately This is the
second time Jack has done deed to
Ed. The sportsmen OF Denver wish
Ed a happy time.
All seems in readiness for match
between Sam Langford and Mike
Schreck. Sam and Mike ought to put
up good fight and Sam ought to win
by margin. Mike has fought good
men, but when he comes in contact
with Terrible Sam it will be something
doing for few minutes. Mike at one
time was considered coming cham
pion Of the heavies, but he has failed
to land the precious crown. II the
bout comes of 1t will be the middle Of
this month at club in Pittsburg.
Congo Kid is in the limelight again
and fought Kid Phelps Monday night
in Memphis.

TRANSPORTATION in Rhodesia.

From the Springfield Republican
The method Of transportation Is eX-
tremely slow, as the oxen do not aver
age much more than two miles an hour.
With a wagon and good span of oxen
one can go anywhere. whether there is a
road or not The hills are pretty steep,
and the wagons are fitted with a brake
which Is worked from the rear of the
wagon. In going down the sleeper hills
this brake is screwed up tight, SO that
the wheels do not revolVe at all. The
wagon then slides down the hill, with
many bumps. AS the wagons are not
made with any springs. it is not exactly
a comfortable sort of travelling, but there
is nothing that a good healthy boy en-
joys more than a trip by OK wagon. AS
the heat in the middle of the day is often
intense. 1t is the custom on long Journeys
to "outspan,' that is to say, to unhitch
the oxen. by the side of the road during
the middle of the day. and to resume the
journey atsnight, especially when the moon
is shining. The typical Boer wagon is
covered at the rear end with a canvas
tent, and here the family ride by day and
sleep by night. There is usually a spring
bed In the wagon, made of leather thongs
stretched over wooden frame Travel
ing by OK wagon Is called by the Beers
trekking, and hence that term has come
to mean i'm South Africa any kind of
travel The first settlers in the country
came from the Transvaal by wagon, and
they settled at Salisbury There are a
rev road bridges, and the streams all
have to be forded. AS the banks are gen
orally pretty steep 1t is not an uncom-
mon sight to see wagon stalled in at
tempting to climb out of the river bed.
In a case like that, another span of oxen
is attached. and sometimes it is even
necessary to use three complete spans
to get the wagon .oufe

Autumnal typhoid still has way of APP
pearing at customary seasons in we'll
nigh every region Of the country The
health authorities in New York find it this
year rather worse than usual. AS usual.
it appears In the dwellings of the we'll
TODD as freely as in the shacks of the
poor. Sanitation does not prevent it
that is, not what we generally call sani-
tation. 1t is an intestinal disease, con-
veyed by drink or food. The old theories
of bad air, sewer gas and damp houses
have not now much standing.
1t is feared that some the later the
cries do not explain all the points about
autumn typhoid. The housefly does not.
The condition of the water supply, as be-
ing different in summer and winter, does
not. plausible explanation is that the
profuse perspiration with which in sum-
mer the body eliminates large amount
of disease breeding matter Is reduced to a
minimum almost instantly when the cool
days begin. The kidneys and bowels, I'M
accustomed to the task, are burdened with
dangerous materials and unable to per-
form the task of elimination. 1t is at
least common knowledge that typhoid is
most prevalent when the cool weather
sets in.
