Run Over by Train.

Thursday evening, between the
hours of 900 p. m. and 2:00 a. m,
an unknown man was struck and
killed by an east-boInd Great West
ern train, a quarter of a mile east
of Dundee, Delaware county. The
body was discovered about O'Clock
by the Great Western track walker,
and as at least two trains had
passed the place during the hours
it is altogether probable that at
least three trains passed over his
body, which was mutilated to such
an extent that Identification would
have been impossible had there been
friends or relatives who desired to
do so.
The man, evidently a tramp, had
appeared in Dundee during last eve
ming, asking for something to eat
While the manner in which he met
his death will never be known 1t is
presumed that he fell from the train
while riding the bumpers.
The body is that of man about
forty years of age, but there was
nothing on the clothing or his per-
son to lead to his identity.

Probably G. o. =. After Joe Cannon

Danville, H., April 27-Several
persons were injured and much
property was damaged when eight
bulls and one female elephant of
the Ringing show stampeded. The
pachyderms were being unloaded
when one of the elephants made
a break for liberty, followed
by seven other bulls. While the
trainers and keepers were engaged
in an elephant hunt in automobiles,
the female escaped. The elephants
were at large for several hours with
the police and the reserves in pur-
suit. The elephants moved for
some time in bunch, then separ-
ated.
They stopped for nothing except
brick and stone buildings. Small
frame structures, coal sheds, fences
and trees were pushed aside, turned
over, uproote6 and tossed about.

ing three of the bulls into their
quarters after capture, was hurled
against the barn and was severely
injured. Other persons were slight
ly injured when horses were fright
ened or through their own fright
during the stampede.
1t is estimated that more than lot
homes were damaged by the ele-
plants. The damage will probably
aggregate $4,000. Truck gardens
and orchards suffered.

SALOON MEN TO JAIL.
Eleven Waterloo Liquor Dealers
Hear Fate i'm Federal Court.

Eleven saloonkeepers of Water
loo. Iowa, were sentenced in the
federal court Friday afternoon by
Judge Reed for selling liquor to an
Indian. The peralty invoked by
the court in each case was sixty
days imprisonment in Jail and a
fine of 500 and costs. Tie court
suspended service of the mittimuses
in each case for a period of thirty
days in order to afford the saloon
keepers time to petition President
Taft for executive clemency in an
effort to have the Jail sentence COM
muted.
These saloonkeepers were caught
last fall when an Indian from the
Tama reservation was taken to Wa
terloo by a special agent of the gov
trnment and they visited every
saloon II the city, securing li0uor
in each one. They were indicted by
the federal grand jury and at the
December term of court eleven Of
them pleaded guilty. Sentence at
that time was deferred to this
term and the question referred to
the department of justice whether a
less sentence imam CndU HXeu Dy
statute could be invoked. No ac-
tion was taken by the department
and accordingly Judge Reed passed
sentence on them, but giving them
an opportunity to present their case
to the president with the hope OF
securing clemency If the president
does not Interfere within thirty
days. they must begin their SEN
tence of sixty days in Jail and pay
fine of 800 and costs, or stand
committed till the fine and costs
are paid.

fenced are p. II. Landry, Charles S.

Young American Makes Brilliant Flight
MANY CHANGES MADE
IN FOOTBALL RULES
Committee Makes Public AItera-
tiOns Which Are Calculated
TO Lessen Danger.

NEW YORK, Aug. 17,-After working
nearly all summer. the football rules
committee today made public the rules
that are TO govern the game during the
season OF 1910. Changes adopted aro
revolutionary in character and arc cal
cuated TO minimize greatly the danger of
accidents existing under tho old rules.
The time Of play is divided into four
periods OF fifteen minutes each. instead
of two thirty-fivn- minute halves. The
usual intermisston OF fifteen minutes Is
maintained between the second and third
period. hut an intcrmission of three min
utcS only Is allowed between the first
and second and third and fourth periods.
During this short jntcrmlssion no player
Will be allowed 10 leave the field, nor VIII
anyone, save tho trainer, be permitted
TO como on tho field.
At the beginning OF tho second and
fourth periods, the teams change goals.
but the down. the relative spot On the
down. the possession OF the ball and the
distance to be gained remain nS they
were at tho conclusion of the preceding
period.
The flying tackle has been entirely
eliminated by tho new ruling that pro-
Vidcs that a player must have at least
one foot on the ground when tackling
This year S rules provide that a player
Is qualified TO receive a forward pass only
when he is at least one yard back OF his
own line of scrimmage or occupies the
position on the end Of the line. No man
may make a. forward pass or kick the
ball unless he IS five yards back OF the
line of scrimmage. Tho territory forward
OF the line of scrlmmagc and consequent
ly In the enemies camp Is adjudscd neu-
tral for Il distance OF twenty yards pend
ing the completion Of a forward pass
pick, a forward pass Is not LEGAL IL the
bail crosses "A line twenty yards in adj
vUuce of the spot where it was put in
play before touching the ground or
player.
In the case OF a kick, the players on
the defense within the twenty yard zone
must not Interfere with the ends, or 9TH
er players, until their opponents have
advanced twenty yards beyond the line
of scrimmage.
Interlocked interference, that Is. play
ers OF the side having the ball taking
hold of each other using their hands
or arms TO grasp their teammates In
any way is forbidden. and IL is also for
hidden for any man on the sido having
possession Of the ball to push or pull In
the man running with the ball.
Another innovation is to be noted In
regard TO the substitution of players dur
Ing a game. A new rule provides that a
player who has been removed for any
cause except disqualification or suspen-
sion may be returned TO the game once
at the beginning OF any subsequent
period.
The longitudinal lines formerly mark
ing the field are done away with, as the
quarterback may now cross the line of
scrimmago at any point
