Three Railway Systems.

There are practically three railway
systems in Canada: The Grand Trunk.
which is the oldest in the Dominion and
the second oldest on the American CONT
nent: the Canadian Pacific and the Cana
dian Northern. In addition to these is
the Inter-colonial road. built and operated
by the government as a political neces-
sity between Halifax and Montreal. 1t
originally cost $4,000, 900 and for many
years the deficit was $1,000 day. Freight
and passenger rates have always been
regulated by political considerations. and
it never can pay expenses as long as that
policy is continued.
The first railway to cross Canada. and
the first to span the entire American
continent under single management, was
the Canadian Pacific, which has been the
recipient of greater generosity than any
other enterprise ever received from OFF,
cial patronage. Its 25,OO00O0 acres of
land are an asset of fabulous value. and
the more land the company sells the
more valuable is that which it retains be-
cause of increased population. Each year
for quarter of century, the lands
that have been left after the annual sales
to settlers have advanced more than the
value of the original area when first
granted. The Canadian Pacific Railroad
Company is the largest landowner in the
world 1t owns not less than 1U,O0O.0JU
acres and probably 12,000,O00. which are
worth from $40 to $50 an acre. and will
continue to increase in value the west
ern provinces increase in population and
develop industry and commerce.
The traffic has become so large and so
profitable that shares worth 500 par are
now selling for $40. They have ad-
vanced about $50 a share since the reel
procity agreement between Canada and
the United States was signed. Twelve
years ago Sir William Van Horne, who
was chiefly instrumental in building up
the enterprise. declared that when the
stock of the Canadian Pacific reached
par he would retire from the presidency.
When 1t passed the dollar mark Sir Will
liam stepped down from the active man
agement and assumed the nominal duties
as chairman of the board of directors.

GoPHERs EAT HUMBLE PIE.
Will Abide BY All of Conference Rules
SAYS The Faculty.

Minneapolis, Dec. 9.-Strict compli-
ance with the conference rules even If
it means the suspension or expulsion
of the offender. is promised by the
faculty council of the University of
Minnesota as a result of the meeting
this week to try charges brought
against Earl Pickering, captain of the
! 1911 football team, barred from the
team on the charges of professional
ism.
'In the opinion Of the council, the
state of affairs revealed by this case.
! is a grave menace TO the morals of
the university community" says the
statement just issued. "To discipline
! Mr. Pickering. further than TO give
publicity to this statement, would be
under the circumstances. to make OF
him the only culprit in the situation
for which the responsibility is widely
distributed. 1t is the unanimous con-
IViction of the council however. that
from now on. whatever rules arc
adopted, must be aggressively enforced
and that hereafter with keener sense
Of what they are doing, students who
are guilty Of deceit and dishonesty
must be dealt with vigorously even TO
the extent of suspension or expulsion.
1t was decided at a meeting of the
university athletic board of control at
which plans also were discussed for
the arranging within few years of
games either with Syracuse or Penn
sylvania. Outside Of the conference
game next year. however the only
eastern contest to be attempted will be
that with Dartmouth.

sIx.DAY RIDERS SPLIT UP,
WILL COMPETE FOR S1oo0

New York, Dec. THE coming six
day race at Madison Square Garden,
which starts Sunday night, Dec. lO has
ALREADY brought out a strong wager,
which promises n three-cornered bait
tie throughout the week that should
furnish some great excitement. The
hottest sort Of rivalry has sprung up
between the teams Of Kramer Moran.
Fogler- Clark and Root and Hll.
1t seems that Moran had originally
promised to ride with Root and that
Fogler and Hill were going to team up.
This was before Clark Cancelled his
Australian engagement and before
Kramer decided To take part i'm the
long struggle. Moran, without notify
ing Root. took Kramer on as a part
ncr. and when Fosler found out that
Clark was not going away he immcdi-
ately signed up with the Aus -ralian.
These moves forced Root and Hill to
combine and stirred up a lot Of bitter
feeling, although close followers OF the
sport think that in Hill Root has Il
better partner than he would have had
If teamed with Moran. At any rate, tho
three teams have formed a pool OF
$1,000. which is to go to the combina-
tion which finishes in the best position,
and Of course every one of them eX-
poets to capture first prize.

CHARITY BALL TO
BE BIG SUCCESS
DEMAND FOR TICKETS is EXCEL
LENT-FlNE PROGRAM OF
DANCE N U BERs BY
LAURlUM BAND.

The success OF Laurium's first an
nual charity ball, at the town hall
Friday evening. seems practically as
surcd. There has been a big demand
for tickets, not only by those who
dance, but by those who merely desire
to help out Il worthy cause, and it is
expected that before the night of the
party the receipts will amount TO sew
eral hundred dollars.
As the use of the hall has been do
mated by the village and as the Laur-
ium band will furnish music free of
cost. there is almost no expense at
tached to the affair and the purchasers
of tickets are contributing directly to
worthy charity. That much good can
be accomplished by the proceeds of the
party is very apparent and this has
inspired the members of the commit
tees to do their utmost to make the
event success.
The Laurium band has arranged a
very excellent program Of concert and
dance numbers as follows:
Selection-Morning, Noon and Night
in Vienna
March-Pettibones Compliments.
Waltz-Enchanted Nights.
Two step-Hulu Hull.

WANTS RULES slMPLIFlED.
Murphy of the Cubs Will Suggest
Change at Next Meeting.

Chicago, ILL.,. Dec AT the National
league meeting in New York on Tues
day President Murphy of the Cubs will
suggest the advisability OF tfb ap-
pointmcnt of a committee to iron out
conflicts in the playing rules, to elm
mate sonlc {: &C eo-cC''0l dca1wool,
and to insert several clauses necv ing
for contingencies not covered in the
present code
Murphy's idea is that his work could
be best covered by a committee OF
seven members. consisting OF two Ma
tlonal league umpires. two American
league umpires. two baseball reporters
and a chairman who should be neither
an umpire nor a writer. With such n
membership the Cub boss thinks all
antiquities would be fer a.ed out and
the code simpllhed. II is not planned
the committee should adopt new rules
nor make any changes except to clear
up doubtful points. There is a joint
rules committee of two leagues, but
II has not met for two years.

MICHIGAN NOT INCLINED.
Will Not Crawl Back Into the West
ern Conference


Ann Arbor, Mich, Dec. THE ath-
lctic authorities here are wondering
Just who this Eisenstadt, Of Chicago,
is that he should make overtures TO
the conference at their meeting i'm
Chicago, Saturday, from the Chicago
alumni of the University of Michi-
gan.
Eisenstadt explained carefully to the
conference that he did not represent
the alumni Of the university but only
the Chicago branch, but his inferences
that Michigan would be willing to ac-
cept the dictates of the association, If
allowed to enter the fold again, does
not conform TO the sentiment OF the
alumni in general or of those of Mich
igan In particular.
Michigan was slapped neatly on the
wrist when the rules permitting the
conference colleges TO play intersec-
tional games but not TO play any school
which had withdrawn from the COM
binatlon were passed, and why Eisen-
stadt should have felt any other way
than insulted is hard to be seen here.
AS the Michigan alumnus stated at
the meeting he did not have the con-
sent of the authorities here In appear
ing before the Chicago meeting and
his action has received nothing but
unfavorable criticism at the univer-

NO WESTERN PLAYER CHOSEN
ON MYTHICAL TEAM OF
STARS NAMED BY WALES
AUTH ORITY.

New York, Dec. 9.-Walter Camp,
one Of the greatest football authori-
ties in America has selected his All
American football team for 1911.
Camp does not pick western play
er for his first Ail-American. Prince
ton Eastern champions, gets three
places, Harvard two, Yale three and
Carlisle, West Point and Annapolis
one each.
Camps selections. together with his
ideas for changes in the playing rules
for 1912, will appear in the forthcom-
ing issue of Golfers Weekly
Camp declares the season showed
great inconsistency, both in teams and
individual players "The principal
contests of the year." he writes
were won or lost through tumble
or a huke. None of the other work
counted"
He declares the forward pass, used
less frequently this year than last
has not been productive of spectacular
plays, and on more than one occasion
has resulted in disaster.
The same, he thinks is true of the
outside kick.
Camp says: "The season will GER
tainly give rise to a considerable dis
cussion of the present rules, and a
party that advocates an increased
of downs-four instead of
three-all over the field or at least
within the 25-yard line-will gain
many adherents.
The rules forbidding tackling be-
low the knees and decreeing the ball
is dead when any part of man ex-
cept his feet touches the ground when
in the grasp of an opponent should be
either modified or enforced"
Camp declares the game, as now
played, is too complex for the average
quarterback to secure results. and de-
mands a simplifcation of the rules.
AS to changes, he says: 1--WE should
,heck the present continuous string of
allow no coaches to walk
ip and down the side lines or speak
% the officials. and we should sim
)lify the rules which require so much
of nve-yard and 2O-yard |
spaces even though doing so may ef- !
ect the forward pass and on-side |
lick.

FRYING VEAL.

When frying veal, either steaks or
chops, first dip the meat in little
sweet milk. Then place i'm a frying
pan containing hot butter or a mixture
of hot butter and lard. Fry over a
good fire and see the results. The milk
causes the meat to brown beautifully
and imparts to 1t a delicious flavor and
unusual tenderness. Veal fried i'm this
way browns quickly and the juice OF
the meat is retained, which is not the
long time.
