While poslam has been mentioned
principally in connection with the cure

when used for itch, hives. pimples,
blotches, acne. itching feet, scaly
scalp, chafing of infants and similar
minor skin troubles it's action is all the
more pronounced, results being seen
after an overnight application. As
only small quantity of poslam is

Over Three Hundred From To
peka Will Attend Game.
Quigley's Men Working Hard to
Win Again From Blue.
The Lineup.

With the above lineup the WASH
burn and st. Marys team will start
their annual battle on the St. MaryS
field tomorrow. With the Catholics
it is an effort to firmly establish them
selves among the stronger of the Kan
sas football teams. With Washburn
it will be an effort to wipe out the
stigma of a defeat a year ago. Last
year, the Catholics for the first time
in the history of the two institutions,
were able to win a victory over Wash
burn. It was an awful blow to the
Blue, but this year an effort-and
come the Quigley bunch Then if
this is done, the Blue will devote its
attention towards piling up a huge
score.
Whatever the result there will be
plenty Of people on hand to see it
done.
The Union Pacific railway will run a
train, special train to ST. Marys
which will leave Topeka at 1880 p. m.
late enough to allow plenty of time
for MONDAY dinner before starting
and will return about $3.50 in time for
supper. The round trip rate will be
So cents.
There will probably be at least
three hundred people on the train.
The Union Pacific has agreed to fur
nish seven coaches and more will be
available if the size of the crowd war
rants it.
The washburn Rooter's club will
attend en- masse and make an effort to
smother all the efforts of the St.
Marys contingent. st. Marys will
have band, but Washburn will not.
This is one of the Shortcomings of the
one thousand students, and not q
band of any kind. There will also be
delegation of downtown fans who
never miss game.
Washburn has recovered from all
the i'll effects of the long Colorado
jaunt. Robb of course it out, but
none of the other players who were
injured in the Rockies carry any in
juries now. Sears is out for the sea-
son with subsequent, injury. The
remainder of the team is in the pink
of condition and will be able to put
up some pretty stiff arguments against
the Catholics. All the eligible men,
bers of the squad will be taken along,
and if the-score gets one-sided Coach
Weede will send in bunch of sub
stitutes.
It is reported that Johnny Foster,
who is an available man for almost
any position on the club has quit for
the season. Foster has been dissatis-
fed for some time, and the fact that
he wasn't out for practice last night
on the even of the big game,
is taken as confederation of the cur
rent rumors. go
The officials for the game have all
been selected. Hamilton of K. u, will
referee. Emil Drummer, county attor-
ney of Pottawatomie county, and e
former Kansas star, will act as field
Judge. Alpha Brummage, a former
Kansas captain, and at present coach
at William Jewell college, will UNI
pire. F. T. Anderson of the Kansas
City Athletic club, will act as head
lines man. F.
Don't forget the time-1:3O p. m.
Don't forget the rai1road-the Union
Pacific. Don't forget the price-96
cents for the round trip.
The Union Pacific ticket office at the
Topeka station, will. as a matter of
accommodation. sell a round trip
ticket to st. Marys and ticket to the
ball game, both for $1.35.

GRIDIRON GOSSIP.

Will Washburn> be able to heal an
old wound? This is just what the
Washburn players, students and down
town rooters are wondering. on the eve
of tomorrow's contest with st. Mary's.
The game last season went to st.
Mary's by a single touchdown. Wash
burn and many of her supporters al
legged unfair treatment by officials and
up il1-feeling. But history cannot be
changed, and Washburn's only way of
evening it up is to win this season by
a big score. And this Is what Wash
burn will try to do. But there is an
other side to the question. Quigley' S
men are hard to beat on their own
grounds. backed up as they are with a
big delegation of student rooters.
Washburn is determined and there will
be a good battle.
The ST. Marys special leaves the I'm
ion Pacific at 1:30 p. m, and will be
back by supper time. The whole thing
railroad fare, admission to the game,
lay of only s1.35. For further infor-
nation call up the Union Pacific and
ask the man.
Don't be surprised if Kansas doesn't
dc much to Washington university to-
morrow. One of the biggest games or
the Kansas schedule will be played two
weeks hence when the Kansans go to
Lincoln to battle the Cornhuskers
Kansas will be watched tomorrow by
Nebraska subcoaches, and Kennedy
won't expose anything more than he
mas to. Washburn may also be repre-
scented. Kennedy will be satisfied with
a small score.
Manhattan will have an easy time
tomorrow playing the Methodists from
the Winfield Southwestern college
There will be a number of Aggie men
al St Marys trying to get an insight
into the Washburn style of play. The
season closes with the big annual Tur-
key Day battle between WashDurn and
the Aggies.

$4,000 Fire at Barnet.

Fire late Friday night destroyed the
grocery store of George Lowrey at Bar
net and its contents, causing "a loss of
about $4,000 Mr.. Lowrey had left the
store only few minutes before the fire
started and had looked around carefully
before locking up, but everything APP
peared to be all right. w. S. Ransom,
who conducts printing office nearby,
discovered the blaze and gave the alarm.
When the firemen arrived the building
was all in flames. Practically nothing
was saved from the store. Mr.. Lowrey
carried stock valued at about $4,000,
which was insured for $1,000. The build
ing, which was owned by w. p. Hough-
ton, was worth from $1,000 to $1,000 and
was insured for $500, A tenement over
the store was occupied by Mr.. and Mrs.
James NJ. Barton, but both were absent
at the time of the fire and all their house
hold goods were lost. A house across the
street occupied by the family of Hiram
Miles caught fire several times. Through
the efforts of the fire company the house
was saved, but il was damaged by water.
Defective electric wiring is the only
cause given for the fire.

AS soon as the jury had been polled,
Clerk of Courts Hurd asked if they
had come to an agreement, and being
told by Foreman FELTON, that they had
done so, the latter was asked to an
nounce it. Guilty" said FELTON,, and
in answer to further questioning, he
gave the degree of the crime as the
first.
Jordan, looking at the foreman,
drew in his lips nervously and then
relapsed into his usual appearance of
Indifference. Jordan's father, his
brother and his brother in law with
drew from the courtroom.
Judge Bell thanked the jury for the
faithful discharge of their duty and
urged upon each member of the panel
the desirability of not discussing the
matter with anybody outside. Judge
Stevens asked Mr. Bartlett, senior
counsel for the defense, how long a
time he wanted in which to file bill
of exceptions, and upon being told
that a month would be sufficient, the
court was adjourned without day.
Jordan, still unmoved was taken to
Jail.
Upon awakening Tuesday morning
Jordan ate a hearty breakfast, and
when told that the jury was still out
he said he did not care. His whole
appearance was that of unconcern.

work already done on the highways
seems to have been done without due
consideration to permanency. With
the supervision of this work now

future improvement of the highways
should be attempted on the basis Of
permanency and economy. The most
important roads in the state are the

In no phase of Y. NJ. c. A. activities is
the work of the Association thrown
against more picturesque or dramatic
background than in its labor in the Far
East writes Hugh G. Weir in The Circle
Magazine for May. 1t is a work for
those young men who, in all the world,
face the most stupendous problems.
Among the youth in the gymnasiums
and library of the Y. NJ G. A. we will
find the leaders of the new Orient-the
men who are to guide the Oldest nations
in history through their greatest crises,
and upon whose shoulders largely de-
ponds the question of how China and
Japan and India and Ceylon are to use
the new power that is just within their
grasp.
We are accustomed to view the east
ern half of the world much as the "min-
ority party in politics. Few of us know
that while the continents of Europe and
America boast 400 600 900, inhabitants
those of Asia and Africa boast 900 900, 900,
two and half times as many. These
hundreds of millions have been doing
through the centuries which have given
us the supremacy of the globe, but they
are waking up For over two hundred
years missionary heroism and martydom
have been sewing seed in the worlds
darker half, and we are just realizing
that the harvest is at hand. We have
nourished the harvest, we have eliminat-
ed one by one the obstacles to Its growth
but the reaping will not be in our hands.
The most that we can do is to strengthen
and develop the reapers even as we have
developed their harvest. The reapers
are the young men of China and Japan
and India and Korea, the youth of to-
day who will be the statesmen and the
educators of tomorrow. These are the
nation builders whose future and that of
so great percentage of the worlds pop
ulation depends largely upon the influ-
ence of the Y. NJ. G. A. and the currents
of physical, mental, and moral manhood

The members of the Grand Army
about the state did well to protest against
the action of the committee which in
vited Gen. Bennett H. Young of Louis
vile, Kentucky, to be the guest of st.
Adams on July fifth when they are to
celebrate the discovery of Lake Cham
plain and the veterans quite likely re-
fleet the sentiment of the state at large.
The committee made a blunder in eX-
tending the invitation to the leader of
the St. Adams raid. Gen. Young is,
presumably. as staunch a supporter of
the Union today as he was of the south
ern Confederacy forty-five years ago,
and he has risen considerably in the es-
timation of the people of Vermont by
withdrawing his acceptance of the invi-
tation of the people of st. Adams, backed
by that of Gov. ProutY, to be guest of
the city on July 5.
