Games Saturday May
Settle Championship

Chicago, oct. 25.--The eyes of foot.
ball enthusiasts in the middle west will
turn to urbana and Chicago next Sat.
urday when the first important games
Of the big nine conference win be
played. On the outcome of these con.
tests, it is believed will depend the
championship.
The Maroons are scheduled to meet
Wisconsin The convincing manner in
which the Badgers defeated Ohio State
Saturday after the OhiOans had held
Illinois to a tie, marks Wisconsin as
formidable contender for the title. Chi
cago, however, has not been put to any
great test this year and the effective
ness of Coach Stages machine is an
unknown quantity. Wisconsin is a slight
favorite.
Minnesota is expected to overwhem
Illinois when they clash at Urbana.
Coach Zuppke has been unable to get
the Illinois team going well this year
while the Gophers have one Of the
strongest elevens in recent years.
Another important game in the west
Saturday will be the first test of east
ern versus western football Michigan
and Syracuse will meet at Ann Arbor,
with the easterners favorites.

of powder is destined for transfer to

Rainbow, now in the Pacific ocean.
Collector of the Port Davis today

cation Of a merchant ship and not as
an auxiliary cruiser as had been
thought. In this case, the Llangroes
would have further'leeway of "a hours

Suspicion that the destination of the
vessel was not British port but that
her intention was to unload her cargo
of munitions on British vessels at sea,
was the subject of further investigation

Davis. Such an action would be viola
tion Of neutrality.

NINETEEN YEAR OLD
GIRL IS A BANDIT
Is Frail and Light, Almost a
Child--Tried Desperately
To Kill Herself

Everett, Wash, Oct. 25-violet Udell
aged 10, confessed bandit, is confined
in padded cell in the county jail here
after two unsuccessful attempts to kill
herself. She was caught pressing a
safety pin into her breast evidently
trying to pierce her heart. Later,
handouts were placed on her arms, but
she wriggled out of them, and soon
she was discovered tearing the sheets
into strips, intent upon hanging her
self.
The girls capture was effected Sat
urday night after an attempt to hold
up b. G. Shaver, a grocer. Masked
with a white handkerchief, she held a
big gun close to Shaver's face and
commanded him to throw up his hands.
At that moment, a neighbor stepped
out of his yard, the girl glanced back
and Shaver pouneed upon her. In the
struggle one shot, which went astray,
was fired
The girl is believed to have figured
in a number of robberies here during
the past few weeks. John Sarff, aged
l9, was arrested as an accomplice of
the girl as he was leaving her room in
a downtown building shortly after the
robbery.
To the police the girl said her parents
died when she was child and that she
has no relatives. She is a frGil, light
haired, blue eyed girl; who looks more
like school girl than a bandit.

SINGLE OIL ENGINE
FOR SUBMARINE USE
Navy Department Would Like
TO Try Experiment AT
Contractors Expense

Washington, Oct 25.-The navy de-
partment is considering the use of a
single oil engine in its submarines, in
stead of one oil and one electric motor
This is the new Neff system of subma-
rining and the department has already
authorized a trial of it. The advant-
ages claimed for the new system are: A
greater submerged speed, a decrease of
danger by doing away with the electric
apparatus and saving of time and
trouble by using only one motor force
above and below the surface.
The new system was originally de
vised by A. r. Neff, a marine engineer,
who now holds patents to all the i'm
provements. II has been experimental
with successfully by several large sub
marine constructors on the Pacific
coast, but has never yet been tried in
an ocean going submarine
Neff recently submitted proposal
to the navy department asking that
they consider the use of his system in
some of the II new submarines which
are to be built and the contracts for
which were awarded several weeks ago.
AS none of the ship building cOmpan-
les which bid mentioned the system in
their estimates, the department was un-
able to insist upon its installation in
the new boats. If it had done so, the
department would have been RESPONSE
BILE for the boats when constructed in
stead of the contractors and in case any
of the under-sea craft had failed to
work with the new system the depart
mcnt would have had to construct a
new boat at the government s expense.
May Try 1t On Old One.
There are number of old submarines
of the A and other earlier types on
hand which navy officers believe have
passed their useful period. The Neff
system is too good to let go by, and
one of these submarines win be used to
experiment with. Trying out new
wrinkles on boats that go under the wa
ter is dangerous, but if it is found that
the system works in these older craft,
the department probably will take an
other step and call for bid on the in
stallation of the new Neff system in its
next proposals.
The complete system is now held by
Neff, who was for years the Washing
ton representative Of the Lake Torpedo
Boat company and is thoroughly famil-
lar with the management and admins
tration of the submarine boat business.
1t is also vouched for by several noted
naval and marine constructors, particu-
larly Allen Hoar, formerly chief engin-
eer of the Los Angeles Submarine Boat
company and original inventor Of many
patents held by that company. The
system met with approval at the open
ing Of the bids last month by officials
of both the bureau Of steam engineering
and construction and repair, who be
lieve that if once properly tested it
will revolutionize submarine propulsion.

Is YOUR STOMACH
CL0GGED WITH WASTE?
Daniel J. Fry Guarantees to Return the
Money If Mi-o-na Does Not
Relieve You.

cts a pleasure TO sell medicine
when my customers come in afterward
and tell me how much good it has done
them,' said Daniel j. Fry, the popular
druggist to journal man, "and that
is why L like to sell and recommend
Mi-o-na, the dyspepsia remedy. The
distribution of samples that made
created so much talk and so large a
proportion Of those who received a
sample have bought a box of Mi-o-na
that my clerks have been busy selling
she medicine ever since. / have so
much faith in this article that l am
going to guarantee it in the future, and
will return the money to any purchaser
of Mi-o-na whom it does not help. That
may seem rash but my customers have
said 50 many good words in its favor
that do not expect to have many pack
ages returned.
"Anyone who has dyspepsia, whose
food does not digest well, and who has
to take thought as to what he can eat,
and when, can leave 80 cents deposit
at my store and take home a box of
Mi-o-na and if the remedy does not
regulate his digestion and help his
dyspepsia he can withdraw his money.
| DON'T know but what we would be
willing to pay him INTEREST,"
This shows great faith in the merit
of Mi-o-na. 1t is really a most unus-
ual medicine and the rapid increase of
sales since Daniel j. Fry introduced it
in Salem shows that it does all that it
is claimed to do-relieves dyspepsia,
regulates digestion and enables those
who use it to eat just what they want
with no fear Of trouble after.
