Alt does not follow that IL the
increase is granted. the roads will use
it as q reason for floating more secur-
casion to do SO, If in urgent need Of
funds. The eastern railroads are
asking for more revenue to avoid
bankruptcy, not because business Is
poor. but because, at time when the
volume of business was great the rates
were lowered, not because they were
unreasonable-and indeed they were
the lowest on the face of the globe
but because regulating bodies consid-
cred that the roads were too prosper
ous and their revenues should be re-
duced. These reductions in rates pre-
vail now with very much less volume

Hal Sheridan, eastern writer, has dis
covered something. Hal relates he has
heard rumors that Pittsburgh univer-
sity plays ringers" on its football
team. The news has been slow in
reaching Sir Hal. Pittsburgh has been
dallying with the ringers for several
seasons. Pete He'll, who played hie
full three years at quarterback with
the Kansas Jayhawke-s, has been in the
Pittsburg lineup for the past two sea-
sons.-Lincoln Daily 1sews.
The question of ringers is rather a
question of convictions and opinions.
Also it is possible that their blessed
ignorance keeps the eastern schools
from realizing that football is really
played west Of the Allegheny noun

Charles p. Taft does not carry his
eggs in one basket. He rents offices
to the Federal league in Chicago and

EvERS PASSES CRISIS
Illness Brings Out the Fact That He
Is q Candy Ffend.

New York, Dec 17-Johnny Evers
came through the crisis in his attack
of pneumonia Wednesday. With the
same gameness that has characterized
him throughout his long career on the
diamond, the captain of the Braves
made plucky fight for II hours while
DR.. J. E. Herrity sat by his bedside
and finally Won past the turning point
in the malady which has held him in
bed at the Somerset hotel for more
than a week. All through the IL hours
it was a question whether the turn
would be for the better avery much
the worse but at O'Clock last night
an hour later was normal while his
respiration also had come down to
about what it should be.
The only thing now to be feared is
relapse but DR.. Herrity says this prob
ably can be avoided and there is a
nourishment tomorrow, starting in with
small quantities of orange juice and
gradually getting back to a normal
diet.
One interesting fact about Evers that
never has been known except to his
intimate friends has become public
property through his illness. This is
that John is inordinately fond of candy.
"Evers has eaten so much candy and
for so many years that his stomach is
in a pretty bad shape as a result OF the
pneumonia said DR.. Herrity. His
wife tells me that 1t is a common
thing for him to start the day with a
pound of candy for breakfast and to
keep nibbline sweets until bedtime.
Not always high priced chocolates,
either In fact, like all true candy
devotees, Evers likes taffy and such
simpler CONNECTIONS as we'll as he does

STRIKERS ON
PICKET DUTY
AT SHELTER

For the first time In a week,
striking ore handlers of the Ia
coma Smeltcr company lined up
on North 51st street, Rnston, this
morning, and did picket duty
while wOrkmen entered the plant.
1t was an unusual picket line,
however. Instead Of exhorting the
workmen to join their strike, or
demanding that the other en-
ployes obey their unions and walk
out, the 80 strikers on duty
laughed, cajoled, and joked with
the men going to work.
Four deputy marshals mingled
with the throng of strikers, but
