Played Best Ball.
But Even Then the Local
High School was
Defeated.

Last Saturday afternoon on
the grounds in this city the Iron
wood and Washburn High School
elevens played a game of foot
ball that rlghtfully should have
been won by the home boys, but
as it was the score sto I'd 5 to 3.
The field was in fine condition
for good playing and the Wash
burn boys showed just how they
could play. They put up a hard
game and far exceeded their OPP
ponents in the new style of foot
bali and whenever the other side
attempted their line plunges they
we're held in good shape. In
the first half Knarns for Wash
burn kicked goal from the twenty
five yard line, giving that side
three points. In the second half
after being held at every turn the
Irunwood boys punted, the ball
rolling over the line just at the
corner. Those who were any
where near where the ball cross
ed. said that it went over the
side line and it was for this
reason that the Washburn quart
erback did not attempt to fall on
the ball. But the umpire saw
different and called it touch
down for the Ironwood side.
There was considerable i'll feel
ing over the decision but the
game was finished. Ironwood
bad the heaviest team by far but
their little opponents showed
better knowledge of the game,
and outplayed them at every
turn.

Accustomed to have the political

went to the same boss with de-
mand for a favor. "Will you get me
a marriage license" he asked.
"That | can't do" explained the pol
itician, 'because you have to ap-
pear in person when you get mar
riage license" This answer to the
political worker seemed evasive, and
he demanded to know: GLOW is it
that you can get me tax receipt
every time there is an election? The
marriage license costs just the
same" To this further inquiry the
politician gave long explanation,

WANT CLIPPERTON
King of Italy to Arbitrate as to
Possession of Island.
(By Associated Press.)

MEXICO CITY, November 29.-The
King of Italy has been selected as ar.
bitter between France and Mexico to
decide as to which country shall have
possession of Clipperton Island. Clip.
perton Island has long been claimed by
France, but this claim is contested by
Mexico, which contends that the island
belongs to her. 1t is little, low-lying
island about 700 miles off the coast of
Central America and lying almost due
west from Costa Rica. The island is
only about ten feet above sea level
and is uninhabited, except for the EN-.
ployes of the Pacific Guano Company,
who go there at times to get fertilizer.
Sea birds shrek about the island, and
the surface is overrun with land crabs

DOCTOR LEFT
HIS PATIENTS
Resident Physician of Queens
Hospital Jumps Job
Suddenly.
HONORARY STAFF TO RESCUE
CoryeI Thought That He Should
Be Promoted to Fill
Vacancy.
HONORARY STAFF TO RESCUE

The many patients at tho Queens
Hospital, some of whom are danger
ously sick and need careful nursing
and constant medical attention if their
lives are to be saved, found them.
selves suddenly on Saturday afternoon
without resident physician to look
after them, when Doctor Coryell, as
sistant resident physician of the hos
pital, resigned without notice, packed
up his instruments and medicine case,
and walked out of the hospital. Tho
institution was seriously embarrassed
until the honorary staff, being inform.
ed of the situation, promptly rallied
to the assistance of the sick.
Doctor Coryell's retirement, coming
unannounced rs it did, gave rise to
rumors Of serious disagreement be-
tween the doctor and some of the
nurses, but Secretary George w. Smith
and others connected with the hospt-
tai state that the rumor was without
foundation.
A few months ago, according to
George w. Smith of the hospital trus.
tees, Doctor Frates. the resident physi.
elan, announced that he intended to
resign, and gave notice that he would
leave the institution, as he intended
to go elsewhere. He was recently
married and preparations were made
for his departure on the steamship Ala
media next Wednesday. The hospital
authorities sent East for successor,
and secured the services of Doctor
Trautman of Philadelphia, who has had
a couple of years. experience in one
| of the largest hospitals of Philadelphia,
where 5000 patients are treated an,
nually.
The hospital authorities have just re,
ceived information that the new ply.
stefan to succeed Doctor Frates will
arrive here about December IL. just
how the incident affected Doctor Cor
yell's sudden determination to leave,
has not been stated. but the news that
Doctor Fratcs' successor was on tho
way had much to do with it. 1t is
understood that Doctor Coryell felt
that he should be advanced to the pc.
sition formerly held by Doctor Frates.
Doctor Coryell has had but four
months experience since leaving the
medical college from which he was
graduated, and il was on this account
that the hospital authorities decided to
fill the vacancy with a practitioner of
larger experience.
Doctor Frates left the hospital upon
the return of J. +. Eckardt. the su.
perintendent, who has been away on a
vacation and who returned last week.
