school foot ball warriors trimmed the
Hastings eleven, 81 to 0. this after
noon. Hastings did not even glimpse
the Fairbury goal line, so closely did
their opponents hold them, Poor Or
ganization of the visitors weak line
and inability to break up the heavy
smashes of the Fairburv eleven were
responsible for the victory. Collister,
Eairbury's right half, was the star
player of the local players, as he reg
istered the greatest number Of touch
downs during the game.
Quarterback Archer, as we'll as
Smalldon, Knoble and Neitzel of the
Fairbury team, contributed largely to
the victory.
One of the largest crowds ever as
sembled on Fairbury gridiron saw
Fairbury trim the visitors.
Today's game closed one of the
most successful foot ball years in the
history of the Farbury school, as
this team has defeated York, Has
tings, Hebron, Edgar and Pawnee.
Carl Collister, Fairbury's star right
half, will be awarded the loving cup
for registering the greatest number of
touchdowns during the season. The

Stecher sixteen minutes to throw
Henderson one fall last winter in

Caddock didn't waste any time on
Henderson, He started right after

a top body scissors in ten minutes

Henderson never even got hold on
Caddock during the first tilt.
The second fall was even quicker.
A scissors and arm lock vanquished
Henderson in six minutes and fifty

Henderson outweighed Caddock by
possibly twenty pounds, but the SUI
perior speed Of the Iowan more than
made up for the difference in pound
age. In the first clash Henderson es-
capped from two scissors holds of
Caddock's. but couldn't squirm out Of
the third. Caddock was on top all the
time in both tangles.
After the first fall Henderson told

He won in straight falls in four min

SCORE THIRTEEN TO ZERO

Lawrence, Kan. Nov. 50--All
claims OF the University of Kansas
loot ball team to the Missouri Valley
conference championship were elm
mated today when they went down to
defeat before the invading Missouri
university team, IS to 0. The line
which held the Nebraskans and
caused the greatest upset in the Val
ley this year was helpless before the
charging of the Missourians. The
Tigers tore great holes in the Kan
sas line and Stankowski, Collins,
Rider and Mcmillan carried the ball
through for gains, some as high as
fifteen yards.
The first score was made in the sec
ond period after five plays had placed
the ball on Kansas two-yard line.
Stankowski went over for the touch
down, but Collins missed goal. Kansas
fumbled frequently throughout the
first half and penalties also added to
the advantage of the Missourians. The
third period was scoreless, but the
playing showed that Kansas was out
classed.
The Tigers opened the fourth quar-
ter with rush. Collins, Mcmillan,
Stankowski and Rider altcrnated in
the gains through the line and around
the ends. Two unsuccessful forward
passes and 6ve-yard penalty for the
Jayhawkcrs left the ball in Missouri's
possession on the Kansas twenty-eight
yard line, Six plays placed the ball
within three yards of the second
touchdown and Collins went over.
Lansing kicked goal and the 1916 sea
son in the Missouri Valley was closed
for the two teams.

 And, Felton, my friend,' said Braine softly-he always spoke softly when he was in a deadly humor-"Fel- ton, you slept on duty the other night. Hargreave stole up, consulted Jones, and got away after knocking me down. The next failure will mean short shift. Be warned!"
 T saw only you, sir. So help me. l was not asleep. I saw you run down the street after the taxicab. l did not see anyone else"

 Felton bowed respectfully and made his exit. He wished In his soul that he free of his eternal mask. It was an iron hand which ruled them and there were friends of his (Felton's) who had mysteriously vanished after a brief period of rebellion. The boss was 8 swell; probably belonged to clubs and society which he adroitly pilfered. The organization always had money. When ever there was a desperate job to be undertaken, Vroon simply poured out the money necessary to promote it. Whenever Braine and Vroon became engaged in earnest conversation they talked Slav. Braine was never called by name here; the boss, simply that.
 Well, ten per cent of million was a hundred thousand This would be equally divided between the second ten of the Black Hundred Another ten per cent would go to so members; the balance would be divided between Vroon and the boss. But his soul re- belled at being ordered about like so He would take his ten thousand and make the grand getaway.
 The next afternoon the princess called upon Florence. Nothing was said about the adventure, and this fact created a vague unrest In the schem. ing woman's mind. She realized that she must play her cards more care fully than ever. Not the least distrust must be permitted to enter the child s head. Once that happened good-by to the wonderful emeralds. Was it that she really craved the stone? Was it not rather a venom acquired from the knowledge that this child's mother had won what she herself. with all her cleverness, was not sure of-Braine' s love? Did he really care for her or was she only the catspaw to pluck his hot chestnuts from the fire?
 When Florence showed her the per sonal," her vague doubts become in, stantly dissipated. The child would
