luliu. Caesar.

The almost unanimous verdict OF
ancient and modern times is to the ef-
feet that Julius Caesar was what
Shakespeare calls him: "The fore
most man of all this world" Never
before or since has any one exhibit
ed in SO high a degree all the quail
tiles OF a born ruler Of men. And
never had any man a grander role to
play. To preside over the most Inn
portant crisis in the history Of the
most important branch of the human
race was a task that none by the
greatest Of men could successfully
perform. Caesar swept one obstacle
after another aside, and stood at last
where he meant to stand.
Some people seem to lie lee
sarily in order to keep in practice.

Game VIII he Played.
There is little doubt but what the game
with Kansas will be played two weeks
from today. Stiehm and Reed are more
anxious thsn ever to defeat the Jay
hawkers. Preparations are already on
foot for the handling OF a big crowd for
the game. II is Homecoming day in Kan
sas and thousands Of Jayhawker grad
yates are expected to flock back for the
biggest battle ever staged on the Law
renee field.
A special will be run from Lincoln on
the Union Pacific. leaving here late Fri
day night and reaching Lawrence early
Saturday morning. carrying hundreds OF
rooters. The developments of the last
few days have served TO increase interest
in the Kansas game and the special will
carry the biggest foot ball crowd ever
sent out of this city.
Nebraska has been especially fortunate
ss far as finances are concerned. The
game at Ames today was homecoming:

the suggestion that they should be barred
from participation is repugnant to the
sense of fair play.
The def of the Cornhuskers TO the
petty methods employed by Kansas
athletic authorities is the result Of a
fight of long duration. over three years
ago the Cornhuskers groaned under the
summer base ball rule. which the con-
ference passed through the majority
mustered by the smaller colleges making
up that organization. II killed base ball
in Nebraska and the sport has never
been able TO secure a footing since.
Nebraska Suspicious.
Although there has never been any
direct proof until last year. when Kan
sas admitted that one of its players
participated in foot ball during the en-
tire season without even troubling TO
register in school. ana the Jayhawkers
were forced to make public an apology,
there has always been a suspicion at
Nebraska that Kansas was not observ-
ing the eligibility rules. The Cornhusk-
ers have been willing throughout to over
look these matters. but the rock which
is now sticking in the Cornhuskers'
throat Is the matter of handling the pro-
test on Ross.
The trouble has precipitated a very
critical situation in Cornhusker affairs
With the rule passed by the board OF
regents. as now seems likely. and the
other schools in the valley refuse &c
