 After a Rugby coach takes his team through six games with the represen- tative teams of the coast with but one defeat and that at the hands of Berkeley, the conquerors of Stanford and during that time and the month of preliminary work proceeding he has taught them all the art and skill and science that he himself possesses, what is to be done about it that the team next year may learn more new moves in the game to keep even with the

progress of their antagonists


 The Olympic coach. the Barbarian coach. not to speak of the respective coaches of Berkeley and Stanford | with all their cunning and wisdom. will be sent to New Zealand and Aus tralia to observe the work of the abo- riginal adopts and to bring them home to impart to their teams. Not that these coaches are slow of comprehension deficient in knowledge of the game as it is now, or lacking in power to teach but that game Is growing and pro- gressing and it will be skill and alert ness and clever play that will win next years games. just as those qualities won so many games under the inspira- ton of Coach Mayors for Nevada g 1 blue and white.
 The proposition is already definitely under discussion to send Coach Mayors to Australia befopf the open ing of the season there to observe the them at the same time and the same advantage with the coaches of those teams Nevada> is determined to beat
 at all hazards next year
 The condition of the Rugby treasury
 this year is better than 'ever in its history. The performance of the team
 has never been excelled by Nevada and
 it speaks much for both coach and
 team that the fifteen of this year
 knows the game of today as well as it
 is known in this country.
 Times and manners change and so
 with Rugby. If Coach Mayors does
 not go to Australia the team is sure to fall behind the times. and no one remotely contemplates the idea of finding such another coach as Coach Mayors

Cincinnati. Dec. 10-For the first time the name of Edgar Cook. of Chi cago, has been legally connected with the $6i3.000 shortage in the local of flee of the Big Four. for which former Treasurer Charles Mariner is in jail under indictment.
 In the last indictment of Mrs. Stew art Ford, Cooke's name appears in connection with the charge that War riner, when he was first made local treasurer of the Big Four, knew of a shortage of s22.0 900. for which Cooke was responsible. The Chicago man at that time was clerk in the treasurer s office
 Another aspect of the case is that although Mrs. Ford is now charged with two criminal offenses, she has not been arrested under the new in dictment Is put on the ground that the woman is in broken health and her arrest might have serious conse- quences Mrs. Ford still maintains the defiant attitude she assumed when her connection with the embezzlement be- came known.

yon road, three miles west of the
Harden place. In the right hand of
the dead man was grasped a 3S
Smith & Wesson revolver and there
was a hole in his left breast just be-

himself some time after 10 o'clock
Sunday. for it was at that hour that
he had left the home of Mr.. Walker
on the north side of the canal to go
to the house of neighbor on the other
side of the canal.
Mr.. Walker learned yesterday morn

THE PERPLEuNG QUESTION
OF WATER COMPETITION
Being Threshed Out at the Salt Lake
Hearing.

Salt Lake City, Sept. 27.-Judge II.
State Railroad Commission. delved
deeply into the question of water rate
competition at the freight rate hear
ing before Interstate Commerce
Commissioners E Z. Clark today. The
railroads have taken the position that
freight can be carried so much cheaper
by steamer to the Pacific coast that the
transcontinental railroad rate to coast
points must be much lower than the
rate to Salt Lake City and Reno New
ada If the latter rate is TO be remun-
erative. G. w. Luce, general freight
agent for. the Southern Pacific.
the first witness called, said. the entire
water route tonnage originating at the
Atlantic seaboard to California points
amounted to 226,140 tons, while the
railroad delivery amounted to 205,231
tons. Judge Bartine tried to bring out
that while the 95 per cent of the west
bound traffic through the Ogden gate
way goes to the coast and conse-
quently the railroads have but per
cent of the inland business to offset
the water competition. Mr.. Luce
thought that only about so per cent of
the business went through to the ter
minal points.
L. ]. Spence. general freight agent of
the steamship lines of the Southern
Pacific company gave some figures on
the tonnage carried by the way of the
straits Magellan, the isthmus of Pam
anna and Tehuantepec, and enumerated
among the advantages to steamships.
the absence of the interstate commerce
restrictions. Spence admitted that
there was no actual competition be-
tween the Southern Pacific and its own
steamship lines.
