TAXPAYERS
 TAKE NOTICE

4 special meeting of the Iditarod town council was held last evening for the purpose of extending the time dur ing which taxpayers may take ad- vantage of the 10 per cent discount. It was felt that inasmuch as there had been delay in issuing the tax notices those willing to pay promptly should not be made to suffer. Accordingly an extension of l5 days has been granted, and all who pay up before February l5 will be entitled to the discount.
 This extension of time does not ex- tend to those paying after February 15. That is to say taxes must be paid in full between February b and March 1, becoming delinquent on the latter date with no extension of time.

A Harvard=ChiCagO
Football Game?

Chicago, Dec e-Whether there will be
a Harvard Chicago football game, next
season, will depend on the action taken
at a special meeting of the University
of Chicago athletic board to be held in
the near future.
Harvard's official proposal that Chica-
go and the Crimson meet at Cambridge
on Oct "a or Oct. 81, was received by
the board, yesterday. and immediate ar
range ments were made for its early con-
sideration The invitation for the inter-
sectional game had been sent to Coach
A. A. Stage of Chicago, who is at Pine
hurst. N c., and was forwarded here
by him.
Unless Harvard will agree to play Chi
cago in this city in 1915 there is not much
possibility of game between the uni
versities at Cambridge next year. Chica-
go faculty members are said to believe
the Maroons would lost prestige by list
ing a single game. The Harvard pro-
posal made no mention of return game
in 1915.
Because of the necessity for an early
reply to the Harvard invitation members
of the athletic board may take action as
soon as Saturday.
AS such contest might by stylee a
national championship, faculty members
are expected to oppose it. AT last week s
meeting of ''big nine" representatives.
inter-sectional championship basketball
games were prohibited and it is believed
by many that the faculty members will
stand by the precedent thus established.
Another objection offered by some of
the faculty members was based on the
fear that Chicago's Western schedule
would suffer as a result of the journey to
Cambridge so early in the season.
However, the football players said the
team could be worked up to its best
form by October 81.

Rushed to Hospital by" Friends, :"
Who Steal All His Papers.
The Police Fail to Make Out a Case
Against Megaro, Newark Suspect.

Cleveland, Ohio, Dec. 9.-Police and
government officers. today, are search
ing for two men believed to be mem
bers of the New York poison needle"
gang who are alleged to have attack
cd George Baker of New York, said
to be a United States immigration in
spector, and robbed him of important
papers while he was under the infiu-
ence of the drug. Every effort was be-
ing made to keep the matter quiet.
The victim, who is said to have been
conducting white slave probe here,
was walking down Lakeside avenue,
late yesterday afternoon, when he was
suddenly taken i'll. Two men who had
evidently been following him, rushed
forward, and carried him into a hospi-
tai nearby. While physicians were re-
viving Baker his friends" picked up
his bag and fled. Two government pa
pers, supposed to be reports on white
slave conditions in this city were in
the bag. The thieves have not been
caught
That Baker himself was a victim of
the needle is thought possible. Doc
tors admitted that a drug injected in
to his veins might have caused his i'll
ness.

proceedings were followed with intense
interest. Sh was chargd with reVolu-
tionary conspiracy in conjunction with
Nicholas Tchiakovsky, the rather OF
