thor.
Comrade Mills is a brother o. Cen.
Arson Mills, and was for a number Of
years American Consul at Chihuahua,
Mexico. He was compelled by i'll health
to resign this position in 1907. and in
accepting his resignation the Stat" De-
partment sent him most gratifying tcs-
timoniais as to the fidelity and eff
cheney with which he had discharged the
duties of his office. Comrade Mills was
born near ThorntoWn, Ind, and went
to Texas before the war, settling in FL
Paso. At that time no man vas we'll
dressed unless he had a siX-shuoter at
his belt. Naturally Comrade Mills had
a stirring time in that turbulent COM
munity, and he has gathered his rec
objections into Il highly interesting lit
tie book. When the war came on he
and his brother sided strongly with the
Union After trying in vain u prevent
the surrender of the troops at Fort
Bliss, Arson Mills came on 70 WASH

to Gen. Candy, to whom he reported.
He entered the Union army, and did
fine service in Gen. Canby's campaign
against the Southwestern Secessionists.

the former Beaver until the Tiger

otherwise and he retired with an
even break for the series. AL is

Carson CROSSED" the Beaver in
field in the eighth and with one
strike called, bunted down the first
base line. Neither Steen, Casey nor
Rapps was looking for such a piece
of audacity and before they could
snare the ball Carson was laugh
ing at them from a safe perch on
the first cushion.
Lindsay bunted a base hit over
Sheehan in the last of the tenth.
Johnny intended to drop one down
the third base line but when he
saw Sheehan and Olson coming in
he put a little extra juice behind
his swing and actually bunted the
ball over them. That's the only
way he would have got on" growled
McCredie. This was the beginning
of the Tiger victory for Lindsay
went 10 third when Steen threw
Carson's bunt over Rapps and
scored on Burrells single to right.
Steen and Fisher thought they
were pulling off some inside stuff
in the tenth when they purposely
walked Carlisle to get Burrell. They
reckOned without Lennle, however,
as being short and close to the
ground the little third baseman
finds the spit ball easy to hit and
picked on one of Stems favorites
for single TO right, which broke
up the game.
McCredie jerked Seaton from the
box in hurry after the Tigers had
tied the score in the sixth on
Carlisle's double to left and Bur
rell's single to center. Steen, who
had been warming up for two in
nings, took up the burden. He is
credited with the defeat as the
score was tied when he went in.
Mensor broke into the game
yesterday, playing right field in
place of Ort after the fourth in
ming. The little one made a nice
throw to third after catching Hap's
fly in the sixth, holding Burrell on
second.
Isn't it awful to be within one
game Of cinching a pennant and
then be unable to grab the final
contest? McCredie has aged per-
ceptibly in the past two days.

PREPS IN CLOSE FRAY
Clifton Herd Scores Only Points
by Place Kick from Meth
0diSt 20-Yard Line

PASADENA, Nov. 5.-Four hundred
people saw Throop academy's football
aggregation come back yesterday after
noon on the local field, when Clifton
Herd with a perfect place kick from
the twenty-yard line near the end of
the second period won the game from
the prep team of the University of
Southern California, the final score be-
ing to o.
The periods were cut to twelve and
half minutes with a ten-minute rest
at the end of the second quarter. A
fast game was played throughout The
first quarter ended with Throop hold
ing the ball within seven yards of the
goal. At the beginning OF the second
period Throop lost the ball and after
several punts back and forth, with a
slight advantage on the side of the
Crown City eleven, the winning place
kick was scored by Throop. The
period ended with the ball in the. CEN
ter of the field.
In the third period the ball was car
ried back and forth for big gains and
u. S. G. was held on the five-yarG
line. Throop took the ball to the CEN
ter of the field with a succession of
long gains before the quarter ended.
The fourth period was nip and tuck.
Herd missed place kick in the middle
of the period by a narrow margin.
While the game was fairly even all
the way through, Throop had u. s. G.
on the defensive a great deal of the
time. The forward pass was tried but
two or three times by each team, with
little success.
At a meeting of the student body of
Throop academy yesterday morning
the question of changing the school
colors was discussed, with the idea
of relinquishing to Throop institute
the orange and white on account of
the two institutions being now separ-
ated. Another meeting will be held to
decide the issue.

WISCONSIN ON TRAIL
Of MINNESOTA STARS
Brains of Gopher Team, Johnston
and McGovern, Said to
Be Ineligible

MADISON, Wis, Nov. 4.-The au-
thorities at the University of Wiscon-
sin will attempt to have Captain John
ston and Quarterback McGovern of the
University of Minnesota football team
disqualified from participating in the
Wisconsin, Minnesota game in Mime
apolis November ~, il the rumors that
reach Madison are correct.
Word was received at Madison that
the two Minnesota stars are ineligible
for competition in conference games
according to rules of that body. 1t is
declared Johnston and McGovern are
attending only night classes in the law
school, which is not in compliance with
conference rules that all athletes to be
eligible must take full work in the
course in which they are registered.
The information received by Wiscon-
sin states the night school in Minneap-
oils is not regarded the regular law
school, as the course only requires nine
hours a week, whereas the day school
requires twelve hours.
1t is further stated that up to last
year McGovern was registered in the
day school, and in order to take advan-
tage of remaining years of eligibility
under conference rules it is alleged the
quarterback switched from the three to
the four-year course.
