CENTRAL'S ENDOWMENT

S2,5OO.

The campaign for an adequate
endowment for Central College
for Women which was started a
year or two ago, has so broaden
ed in scope and effectiveness that
the goal set by the Board of Gu
rators may be realized sooner
than was expected. The most re-
cent contributor to the funds is
Hon. James Houchin, Jefferson
City, with $2,5OO. During the
past two months more than &c.
600 has been raised. The canvass
will continue to be pressed with
vigor until 100000 has been
secured for the endowment, and
Central College made the Vassar

CADETS COME TO LIFE
Haskell Seconds TrOunced to the
Tune of 27 to 10.

No better example Of prepared.
ness could be shown to the peo.
pie Of Lexington than that of the
cadets Saturday when they put a
crimp in the Haskell invasion
aftSr a fifteen minutes encoun-
ter. Ne invaders were adequate
ly equipped to wage a successful
campaign against an enemy
whose preparation had been neg
lected or entered into with no
seriousness OF purpose. The hos
tile forces were led by one Arti-
checker, whose place is football
history is already secure, hav-
ing been a star Of the first mag
nitude at Carlisle and Haskell.
Saturday, after his forces had
been routed he went in long
enough to quiet their panic and
lay by few of the enemy.
The cadets played an improved
article Of ball right off the reel.
They had the guns and the am
munitions which they used to the
best possible advantage. Their
air equipment, too, was eff
cient. When the front and fanks
of the invaders were secure, the
air squadron was turned loose
and right well did they execute
their allotted task. A az against
the line would be followed by
short rushes on the flanks, then
a bomb from the skies; all of
which so confused the aborigi-
mes that complete annihilation
was only avoided by cessation of
hostilities until an old rs could
be brough up from the rear
Artiechocker.
The first fifteen minutes was
very productive for the cadets as
they rung up 27 points before the
Indians knew what was going on.
That was enough, for the best
the Indians could do the remain
ing three quarters, was to score
a touchdown, kick goal and make
a goal from the field. Their
touchdown was a questionable
one as their was holding by
the Indians which the official
failed to see.

CLUBHOUSE DESTROYED
BY FIRE
In the Rear of Chas. Guenther's
Home. Discovered Too Late
to be Saved.

Yesterday afternoon about
three-thirty the clubhouse in the
rear of Chas. Guenther's home
was discovered to be on fire. The
alarm was Immediately given,
but too late to save the building.
The fire company arrived
promptly and kept the fire from
spreading. The loss was small.
Lexington is having an cpl
demic Of fires originating along
the alleys, caused, no doubt. by
carelessness in throwing lighted
matches, cigar or cigaret stubs
in the dry grass along the way.

cordance with the oral PROPOSE
ton which the council voted to
accept, and he refused to sign it.
Therefore the called meeting.
The question arose as to the
legality Of the proceedings
whether or not the contract
could be let without a specific
ordinance to that effect. Also
whether or not the council had
made a wise selection. Some of
the councilmen took the oppor-
tunity to declare that they were
there as servants of the people
and whatever they did would be,
in their judgment, evidence of
their faithfulness. But not so
with Councilman Perry. He de-
clared to the world that he was
not the servant Of anybody or
anything-and everybody be-
lieved him.
No fire hose, however.

Chief Fire Department.
Automobile Catches Fire.

Automobile Catches Fire.
Friday night about twelve
o'clock as DR.. B. T. Payne was
passing James McGrew's garage
he discovered it to be on fire. He
Immediately gave the alarm.
but before the fire could be put
out considerable damage had
been done to the garage, the con-
tents and Mr.. McGrew's car. The
fire is supposedly to have started
from a short circuit in the bat
teries concealed under the rear
seat of the automobile. The
cushions and the wood work of
the body were burned, but the
gear and the engine es-
capped damage. In the garage
was stored some household
window screens, etc. All
this was burned. The loss is
fully covered by insurance.

COUNCIL NET IN
CALLED SESSION
Subject: Fire Hose. Time: Tues
day 3 O'clock. Place: City
Council Chambre.

If Nero really fiddled while
Rome was burning, he hadn't a
thing on the City Council of
Lexington yesterday, for, while
they were discussing fire hose.
the fire company was called out
to squench a fire not far distant
from the city hall. History has
an ugly way of repeating itself.
and while Nero was fddling and
singing, principally for his own
edifcation and to crafty an
egotism unparalleled in history,
until very recently, he did ac-
complish something-He fiddled
and burned Rome. The city
council fiddled, but there's no
fire hose on the way.
The councilmen were called to-
gether by Mayor Taubman to
consider a proposition thay had
voted to accept at a meeting
Monday night. On November 2.
the city advertised for bids for
500 feet more or less of fire hose.
The bids were opened Monday
night and it was found that sew
eral companies had submitted
prices, as follows:
H. W. Johns Melville Co., Of
Tered Karo Brand, double jacket
hose at 80 cents per foot.
Gutta-Percha and Rubber Mfg.
Co.. Of Chicago, offered rubber
hose for S1.25 per foot, and the
Ridgewood double jacket hdse
for 70 cents per foot.
Diamond Fire Hose Co: offered
a double jacket hose for 80 cents
per foot, and the Mutual Rubber
hose for 95 cents per foot.
Gustin-Bacon Mfg. Co., offered
the Firo single jacket hose for
70 cents per foot, and two grades
Of gum treated double Jacket
hose, one for $1.OO and the other
for 80 cents per foot. Also the
Phoenix brand rubber hose for
8415 cents per foot.
George c. Hale Co., of Kansas
City, offered the Protection
brand two part inner tube and
outer Jacket hose for S1.O5 Der
