Day by day the scope of what Is
now known as the Japanese sugar
scandal increases and the arm of the
law is being stretched into places high
and low to arrest and expose those
responsible for tho most gigantic
series Of Irregularities ever brought
to light in Japan. There have been
arrested SO far twenty members of
parliament, and six directors of the
company.
Lieutenant General Stoessel and
Rear Admiral Nebogatoff, Russian
commanders in war with Japan, have
been released from confinement in
the fortress of st. Peter and st. Paul
by order of Emperor Nicholas. The
health of both men has been gravely
affected by their confinement.
The conditions in the refugee camps
in Adana province, Asiatic Turkey,
are pitiable. Many thousands of I'M

lack food, shelter and medical aid.
The authorities are making efforts to
improve the situation and send the
refugees back to their farms.
The curtain has been rung down
upon the general strike at Paris amid
recriminations by the leaders, who
tried to throw the responsibility for
the failure upon each other and the
defeated postal employees. The end
came when a few hundred laborers
voted to resume work.
Notwithstanding the decision of the
French General Federation of Labor
to call off the strike the sailors,
stokers and stewards Of the merchant
marine have gone out ut Marseilles,
Toulon and Havre and the movement
is likely to extend to other French
ports.

dred were present. No sooner was the

versity and support the Tiger team.
The committee appointed to take
charge of the organization is COM

ROLLA HERE NEXT SATURDAY
GiIchrist, Former Tiger, Is in Miners
Lineup.

0iICnriSt, ForHleF Tiger, is IN Miners
Lineup.
The Tigers will meet the fast team
from the Rolla School of Mines next
Saturday afternoon on Rollins Field.
Judging from the recent 3-to-O victory
of the Miners over st. Louis Univer-
sity, the game will be more than a
practice contest for the Varsity men.
In the Rolla lineup are Gilchrist, who
played with the Tigers last year, and
Macomber the football and track star
who proved the chief ground gamer
for the Miners in the game with Mis-
souri, last year.
Missouri won last years game by
a score of 16 to 0. In the first half
the Miners held the Varsity to four
points, scored on field goal by Bluck.
The Rolla team is coached this year
by Dennie, a former Brown University
player.

SERIOUS FOOTBALL
At MASS MEETING
Largest and Most Stirring
Gathering Of Year Held
Friday Night.
ROPER AND GIBSON SPOKE
''Support the Team and
BEAT Kansas Were the
Subjects Discussed.

There are great numbers of people
| in Missouri who don't give go
darn for football. but it certainly does
gall them to have their boys go down
to Kansas City Thanksgiving Day
every year and be walloped by those
Jayhawkers," said Coach w. w. Roper
at the mass meeting Friday night. 1t
was the most successful meeting of
the kind held at the University of
Missouri this year. or perhaps for sew
eral years. The auditorium was
packed. many being unable to find
standing room.
Speeches were made by Coach Roper
and Prof. J. A. Gibson. The Beat
Kansas" club was organized, the yells
were practiced, the band played and
everybody returned home with more
serious idea of the football situation
than has ever been true at the Uni
versity of Missouri
Prof. Gibson emphasized the import
ance OF the students supporting the
team. He explained the difference be-
tween Eastern and Western football
as being purely difference of spirit.
He explained the value of the students
supporting the team, especially in urg-
ing them to keep their training rules,
and do their best at practice I'VE
must cut out this laughing and joking
on the bleachers. We must realize
the seriousness of the situation. 1t
is up to the students to see that the
players keep their training rules. 1t
is up to the students to see that each
man does his best at practice. The
man who will take a football player
out and keep him up until after 10
o'clock and encourage him to break
his training rules should be driven
from the university" said Prof. Glib
son. THE trouble in the past with
the Missouri spirit has been that it
was good while Missouri won. but died
as soon as the score was on the other
side
Coach Roper also emphasized the
Importance of supporting the team
1T is up to the students to make
each member of the team know the
the faculty, and the citizens
of Missouri are expecting him to play
a good game. They may not care for
football, but they hate to see their
boys defeated every year. We are not
through until Thanksgiving Day, and
everybody must keep pushing until
that day is past. Everybody must
stand behind the team and make them
feel that we expect it of them,' he
said.

A stylish gowned young woman Of

before Magistrate BeatOn at the Central
station yesterday, says the Philadel-

being drunkenness. She gave her
name as Florence Brown and said she
resided on North Tenth street, but
the police declared that both the name
and address were fictitious. The
magistrate asked If there was any
other charge against the woman, and
when the policeman said no he was
about TO discharge her, when she
arose and declared she did not wish
to be discharged.

PREVENTION OF
The FLY EVILS
PROF. sEckWITH ISSUES MORE
WARNINGS REGARDING FLIES
TELLS HOW TO AVOID DISEASE
--cLEANLINEss AND SCREENS
HELP A LOT.

Recent experiments show that flies
may travel with light wind for a
distance Of thirty miles from their
starting place." said Prof. T. ID. Beck
with. of the A c. "In the course OF
their travels they alight on flth or
in the kitchen, and usually in both
places. Thus they carry filth 10 our
tables.
Tine remedy? Use screens. and
keep a clean kitchen. 1t may save
the life of some member OF the family.
Last year over $4,000 deaths oc-
CURED in the United States from ty-
phoid alone. OF this number probably
rs per cent might today be living had
proper measures for prevention been
taken. Most of these deaths were
caused by drinking bad water and
milk. Both OF these drinks might cas-
lily have been rendered harmless by
boiling. Many Of the deaths were due
to flies infection OF the food in the
kitchen, carried from the exxcrement
OF some typhoid patient within q mile
or so of the place
Remedies: (1) Use abundance of
chloride Of lime to disinfect the ex-
crement (2) Keep the flies out OF the
kichen and pantry You owe this much
to yourself and to your neighbor.
Have any Of your cattle tuberculo-
sis? If they have, according to the
department OF agriculture, the manure
will most likely be infected, and the
germs will be carried by flies to your
table. Doctors say that adult human
beings do not take tuberculosis from
cattle, but that children may.
do you care to run the risk which
a little forethought might prevent
Your carelessness may cause the
death of your children. Therefore
keep the flies away from such manure,
and keep them out OF the home. You
had better do both.
''F1ies carry disease. This has been
proven beyond a doubt. Tuberculosis
cattle give off infected manure. The
flies carry the infection to the house,
where the food becomes laden with tu-
bercular germs, The child dies from
consumption.
Keep the fly away from the home
and the children are safer.
Keep your yards and grounds clean
Of refuse. Refuse breeds flies. Flies
transmit such diseases as typhoid,
consumption, dysentary. Cleanliness is
next to godliness. It means human
lives saved.
I'm these days we know that the
death angel takes the form OF the
common house fly. Use proper pre-
cautions-cleanliness unslaked lime
chloride of lime, or the like, and keep
the flies out"
