A bruise and smash,
The season for football is on.

Some pads there and here,
The college footbalIers will don.

All around through the west
The whistle will blow, folks, at

Down at Harvard and Yale,
Oh, they'll rake in the kale,
For the season is on in the east.

Righto, John. Jake's the gentle

way to tie the can to Jake and start
him going with swift kick.
Gee Whiz, just think of it.
Hearst's American is sending out
letters saying that the advertising
figures published by the Daily News
are inaccurate.
That's the polite way of saying the
News is liar.
How sweet it is for the brethren of

What bothers Hearst is that the

BACK FROM TEXAS

Sheriff Jones returned last Sun
day from Dallas. Texas. where he
went on official business. His mis-
sion was the arrest and extradition
of one R. H. McDuffie, an alleged pro-
duce swindler of Dallas, Texas.
Sheriff Jones got his man and placed
him under arrest but could not hold
much less extradite him, as he was
SO badly entangled in the meshcs of
the law that the Idaho sheriff could
do nothing with him as there was
many charges pending against him,
on one of which he was out on $4,000
bail. Had there been no other charg-
es against him but the one Mr.. Jones
said he could not have been extra
commit crime and was therefore
not a fugitive from Idaho justice
What business he done here he did
through the mail, and Sheriff Jones
had him arrested for using the mail
for fraudulent purposes, and it is up
to the officers of the Federal govern
ment to prosecute him in Texas,
where he first made the post office
a party to his populations, which
it is reported brought him about
1000, four or five thousand Of
which belongs to farmers and com.
mission men in this neighborhood,
principally in Shelley.
