POLLOCK COMES
HOME THIS week
CAPTAIN OF THE WISCONSIN
CREW EXPECTED HOME THIS
WEEK-5ADcERs MADE BET.
TER TIME THAN DID CORNELL
IN TRIAL FOUR MILES.

Charles M. Pollock OF Fargo, cap
tain of the Wisconsin crew, is expect
ed home this week from the east tc
spend the summer here with his par.
ents, Judge and Mrs. Charles A. Pol
lock.
One Of the most interesting fea-
lures Of the practice before the regat-
ia, to the followers of the badgers
was trial four mile row made in
record time by the Wisconsin crew
The records of the trial run on the
river show that few days before
the race the Wisconsin crew went the
four miles In 10 minutes and so sec
onds, which was better time than the
Cornell crew, which won the race
made in the final squirt of the great
regatta.
A few days before the race, but
after Wisconsin made the record
time, the badger crew was shot all to
pieces by boils. For time the Fargo
boy was out Of the shell because OF
the illness from the boils and other
members Of the badger eight suffered
likewise. AS it was, Wisconsin with
shattered crew, was only beaten ]
second by Pennsylvania.
Captain Pollock is hoping that the
Wisconsin crew will be banner one
next year and is looking forward to
the training season with a great deal
of eagerness. Only two men will be
lost from the badger aggregation and
there is strong lot Of material in the
freshmen squad.
The new captain Of the badger shell
has gone to New York city where he
will spend short time. He has writ
ten his parents that he expects to be
homo this week.

Klein on this subject. The United
Doctors are some of the first physi-
clans of prominence to cry out against
the craze for surgical operations
which, during the past few years, has
developed into proportions that alarm
the conservative element of society.
While he has ever stood a champion
and, in fact, one of the chief expon-
ents of surgery, he has maintained
with all the vigor of his trenchant pen
in the leading journals in the coun-
try, that the knife should only be en-
ployed as a last resort. In their prac-
tice the United Doctors have always
refrained from surgical procedure ex-
cept when absolutely necessary, I'M
derstanding, as few physicians of the
day understand, that Il is possible to
accomplish the cure of many compli-
Gated, deep-seated diseases by the
right administering of Natures never
failing remedies without any recourse
whatever to surgery. They have con-
centrated their splendid genius toward
the cure of diseases by using only pure
vegetables drugs and medicines.
The United Doctors are not to be
daunted by the fact that the patient
may have gone from one physician to
another in unavafling quest for cure.
They do not measure their own pow
ers by the standard set up by other
men. Some of the greatest triumphs
recorded in medical history have dis
regarded the repeated assertions of
contemporaries that certain diseases
were beyond the possibility of cure.

Rev. Mr.. Montjeau, pastor of the First
Baptist church and chaplain of the
company He was natural athlete
and trained actor. This and other
pleasing traits gave him great popu-
Iar1ty with the boys. A little incident
during his connection with the guards
was one of the causes that led up to
his retirement from the church. Dur
Ing the second year of his term as
chaplain he extended an invitation to
the full company to attend his church
and listen to a Sunday sermon. The
invitation was accepted, and to make
the occasion still moro notable Mar
shalps band was taken along to fur
nish music on the street. Church
pieces were rendered in going and
secular airs were given or the return.
In his address he referred to a promi-
nent Topeka man who was addicted
to end it all. committed suicide by
shooting. In a tragic manner the
speaker said: "Boys, never gamble; If
you do it will terminate with a revol-
Yer at the temple
On another occasion when a famous
trotting horse was to appear in Kan
sas City, the company made arrange
ments with the Santa Fe railroad and
hired train in order to make some
money to pay on the uniforms. Rev.
Mr. Montjeau took a lively interest
on this occasion, selling a great many
tickets for the excursion. Soon after
mutterings of dissatisfaction were
heard among leading members of the
Baptist church and finally something
happened. Certain charges were said
to have been preferred against him,
and either he was asked to withdraw
or voluntarily left his pastorate; which
of these was never quite clear to out
siders. However, a grateful remem-
brance was always cherished between
him and his associates Of the guards.

was extended to President r. B. Hayes
to attend the Neosho county fair and
on making the trip he was accompan-
led by Mrs. Hayes, General w. T.
Sherman and members of his staff.
To render due respect on such an oc-
casion, the Capital guards were also
invited to be present and act as a
guard of honor. They were accom-
panied by Marshalrs band and took

about the same time that President

Berlin Doctor
Scores Knife

A cablegram from Berlin Germany,
to the Chicago Daily News says:
Measures to place a check on the
growing fad of operating for appendi-
citis are strongly urged upon Berlin
physicians by DIR. Richard Klein, one
of the local sanitary commissioners.
DR.. Klein issues statement declaring
that popular apprehension of the dis
ease is greatly exaggerated. He ex-
poets that an official inquiry just made
among Berlin surgeons will prove
needless the apprehensions instilled in
the public mind regarding the preva-
lence and character of the malady.
Or. Klein asserts that large num-
Der of the operations are ascribable
either to the alarm of the patients
themselves or the excessive willingness
of certain surgeons to operate"

TRAIN CREW ON WRONG TRACK
But Missouri Pacific Men Saw North
western SeInaphores and Stopped.

But Missouri Pacific Men Saw North
western SeInaphores and Stopped.
Lincoln, Neb.. Jan. 21.-A Missouri
Pacific train left Lincoln a few days
ago over Northwestern rails. and the
crew was much surprised when they
were halted at the Twenty-seventh
street semaphore station by the soma
phore and derail. A Northwestern
passenger train on tho north side of
the Twenty-seventh street crossing was
trying to get into town. and before it
could reach the depot the Missouri Pa
cific train had to back into the yards
and cross over through the junction
switch to Gould road rails.
The explanation is that g. new crew
came into Lincoln over the Missouri
Pacific in the early hours of the morn
ing with train, and were ordered out
again, to leave at IL a. m. When the
train started the switches were lined
up for the incoming Northwestern
passenger train, due at 11:35 a. m. The
new crew kept going. AS the train
passed the Northwestern roundhouse
one of the men there called up the
freight Office and excitedly called:
'Say, what Is this M. P. train do
ing out here? It is going east on our
line"
He was told to stop it. He replied
that 1t had passed and could not be
stopped. Then the Office men got busy
with phones to head off the tres
passer, but the semaphore men at
Twenty-seventh street beat them to it.
