No Recount
For Capper
No Election Board to Recon.
vene-ReStrainer is
Granted.

Arthur Capper Monday IN the
supreme court IN his effort to have
election boards reconvened imme
diately to count ballots which ne
claims would have been counted In
the recent election, but were re-
iected because the voter marked In
10th the circle and the square in
the same column, The Supreme
court Monday night denied the ap.
plication of Mr.. Capper for writ
of mandamus IN the Wabaunsee
county case where he claims that
about thirtv ballots were thrown out
on that account
Capper won in the Bourbon
county case, where Capper wanted
to compel the county 10 send In
corrected returns. In the Bourbon
county proceedings Capper came
out winner. The Supreme court
has not handed down its written
opinion yet, but will do so later
To Judge from the decisi'ns Of
Monday it would-appear that where
there are manifest clerical errors in
the count, that corrections shall be
returned to the state canvasslne
board before that body issues GER
tiyicate of election. But that al
votes rejected because of markings
in both the circle and the square
must be brought before the contes
tribunal.
The restrainer which prevents
the state canvassing board from
Issuing a certificate Of election OF
governor Until the presen, suits Q
Cappef are over. was granted.

A Fight for True--Chanutc
in Danger in Fourth
Quarter.

Although Chanute again defeated
their old time enemy Parsons
Friday on the football gridlron the
score, IA to IS, was so narrow a
margin that Chanute hardly realized
they had won their game until after
the whistle blew for time apd then
they could draw an easy breath.
The game was one in which the
two sides were so evenly matched
that it was toss up from start to
finish whether the game was Cha
nute's OF Parsons.

Cantata Pleased Audience

The Presbyterian choir under the
direction of Miss Edith Bldeau gave
a cantata "Prayer, Promise and
Praise" by Neidlinger at the Presby.
terian church last night. The splen-
did music was greatly appreciated by
the large audience. At least two
hundred were turned away from the
church oD account of lack of room to
accommodate the crowd. A violin and
cello duet by the Misses Fern and
Pearl 10y of Aurora Mo. was aisc
fine and has been the sutj tject Of many
complimentary remarks.

battle as any Tiger team in history.
They tackled fercely and fought for
every inch until the final whistle.
The men of Brewer PLAYED up to the
best form they had displayed during
the season, but they simply met a
superior team, team which was
doped to be inferior but which did as
Kansas elevens had done in the past
and put forth their greatest fighting
strength against their most honored
enemy.
Both Kansas and Missouri show d
unexpected skill with the forward
pass aud each made three successful
flips for first downs on each attempt.
In the last quarter, in a desperate
attempt to score touchdown,
Missouri tried pass after pass, but
the Jayhawkers broke up the play
almost at will.
A remarkable feature Of the game
was that only twenty-five men played
in the entire contest. Neither team
felt the need of substitutes, although
it was a grilling fight throughout.
1t show ed the excellent condition
both squads were in.
