Des Moines Physicians Believe the
Terrible Scourge is
Under Control.

Des Moines, Oca. THE diph-

improving, according to DR.. II. L..
Sayler, city physician. There were
but two new cases reported to the
health department on Saturday COM
pared with six on Friday
The total number Of cases in the
city now is forty-five. The city's
physicians were busy yesterday ex-
amining school children with re-
ported sore throats, but 1t is be-
lieved that none of them have
diphtheria.
THE fact that we only had two
cases on Saturday, when We usual
ly have from five to six day, leads
us to believe that the epidemic has
been checked" said James Morgan,
secretary OF the health department.

controlling the disease and We now
feel that our work has produced re-
suits. There is always turning
point in such epidemics, when the

For Forty-Six Years.

John J. Clifton paid years sub
scription to this paper last Satur-
day. There is nothing particularly
remarkable about this transaction,
as Mr. Clifton always pays his pa
per as well as other bills; but when
the fact is stated that this was the
forty-sixth succeeding year that Mr..
Clifton has paid for the Freeman
Tribune. either the weekly or daily,
the matter is something altogether
out of the ordinary. Mr.. Clifton
subscribed for the old weekly Free
man In 1866, when V. A. Balou was
it's proprietor. This was the year
the late j. d. Hunter purchased the
paper. He has read it continuous
ly all these years and has witnessed
it's growth from small siX-column,
four-page weekly. to its present
proportions as seven-column
eight-page daily newspaper. And We
hope our old friend will live yet
many years to enjoy life---and read
the Freeman-Tribune.
The Freeman-Tribune has quite q
number of old pioneer settlers on Its
list who have read the paper from
forty to fifty years and it is needless
to say that the publishers greatly
appreciate such staunch and loya
standbys

crawl over the mark and the counts
We're even. After this the ball could
be found in the middle of the field
and in no danger Of being placed
back of the goal posts.
The opening game furnished the
"dope" sheet with no little amount
of information. 1t is now believed
that when Helmick returns to the
game the home eleven will be as
strong as they have ever been in for
mer years. Much fumbling was done
Saturday, but this is laid to the in
experience of the men who, when on
the firing line, always became excit-
ed. Several of the substitutes were
tried out on the line positions and
all gave good account OF them
selves. Maxon on the quarter back
job shows up well. This job is the
hardest on the team for new man,
but Maxon's work was exceptionally
good for starter. Melier in his
first appearance behind the line al
so gave satisfaction His line
smashing is of course his biggest
card. owing to his weight. Berg
gren shows up as we'll as in former
years. His presence does much for
the pep" of the bunch. Neel, an
other recruit, played his share of
the game and will no doubt find
permanent berth with the regulars,
while Daniels receives the ball in
good style and shows much improve
ment over last season. Kelly, Green
wood, the Sterling brothers and Ma
honey have ability and with a little
more hard work will display good
form.

FOOT BALL GAME
RESULTS IN A TIE
Iowa Falls and Webster City High
School Teams Open Season
Here Saturday.

The opening Of the high school
foot ball season in this city Satur-
day afternoon with game between
Iowa Falls and Webster City result
ed in tie-6 to 6-after four hard
quarters of play. A good sized crowd
of rooters were present at the ses-
sion and the enthusiasm indicates
that the college game will be as pop
ular this year as in seasons past.
The game was between two of the
most evenly matched squads possi-
BILE and aside from an occasional
squirt the contest was without sem
sation.
By the toss Of the coin Berggren
was given the right to kick off to
the visiting squad, and the pigskin
was returned about fifteen yards.
Iowa Falls first pulled off some line
bucks, but as they made little head
way successful forward pass gave
them the ball for several minutes
until lost on tiuke. The locals
could do nothing with the ball and
the sound of the whistle for the first
quarter found the score board with
out marks and both teams were
ready for their ten minutes of rest
The call to play for the second
quarter started in about the same
manner. Iowa Falls returned the
ball several yards but could not ne
gotiate the goal line. The locals
gained possession of it in mid-field
and by a tumble lost it after about
half of this quarter had been play
ed. BY succession of short gains,
by forward passing and line buck
ing, the Iowa Falls squad pushed the
leather within about four yards of
the goal line with four downs to
make it in. Two of these attempts
found their gains to be probably two
feet from the lire as the locals play
ed air-tight ball and refused to al
low them to pass. BY line buck
the last down gave the visitors
their first and only taste OF touch
down
The opening OF the third quarter
found the locals playing much more
,aggressively than in the early part
of the game. Meller was sent
through the Iowa Falls line for big
gains, while Berggren pulled of
some good forward passes that kept
the oval advancing. The ball was
lost to the Iowa Falls bunch on
their forty yard line and for some
time the home squad line failed to
hold them for downs. However,
Kelly, the local right end, happened
nlong just as the ball was being
fumbled, fell upon it and the under
studies of Meyer continued on their
movement for the goal. At this
point Daniels on a forward pass
pulled of the longest run of the
game. When given the oval on a
forward pass the left end pulled
away from his rivals and had almos,
reached the posts when he was stop
ped. After much close play the 10
cals sent Meller through within a
few yards OF the line. By quarter
back smash, Maxon managed tt

A TURN FOR WORST.
Internal Crisis Seems to Be Impend
Ing-Mediation the Question.

Constantineple, Nov. 9.-Events have
taken a turn for the worst. A grave in
ternal crisis seems to he impending. On
the one hand the position of the gov
eminent is seriously compromised be-
cause the army repudiates the media
ton proposals. On the other hand, the
committee of union and progress is
giving evidence of renewed activity,
while Turkish feeling, both national
and religious, is being worked To fever
pitch by the preaching III the mosques
and the impassioned language of the
press.
The most serious feature of the sit
uation is the weakness of the govern
ment in first applying for mediation To
secure an armistice. later requesting
mediation pure and simple, and then
being virtually obliged to yielo to the
army, which repudiated mediation.
Probably only the fact that the Pow
ers have not replied to the request for
mediation prevented ministerial
crisis and extricated the government
from the impasse, as it will nto now
be called upon to take any action.
The committee of union and pro-
gress has taken up strongly the cry
of "No surrender The newspapers
Tanine and Yeni Gazeta have been
