PARALYSIS
CAUSED BY GASES
OF AUTOMOBILES

Cincinnati, Oct. 27.-Automobiles,
not germs. are to blame for the cpl
demic of infantile paralysis that has
swept the country.
Dr. Thomas F. Harrington. deputy
commissioner of labor of Massachu-
sets, made that assertion before the
American Public Health association
here today.
'Infantile paralysis is due to chem
ical agents, namely, gases and fumes
given off in the atmosphere by the
combustion of oils and fluids used in
automobiles he declared. Gases of
gas and fume poisoning and cases of
infantile paralysis agree in every es-
sential.
The prevalence of infantile paraly-
sis in epidemic form dates from the
introduction and wide use of the au-
tomobile."

MANY PLUCK AT
THE LAURELS OF
MR.. TYRUS COBB

The statement that Ty Cobb is the
greatest ball player the game has ever
seen has been disputed by some old
fans who used to watch men like
Ewing. Williamson and Mike Kelly
play. 1t is pointed out that Cobb is
certainly a bear at bat and on the
bases but that a fast outfielder is not
the speedy and quick thinking player
that a fast infielder must be and that
for a1l-round speed and versatility the
old boys had it on the present genera
ton. Mike Kelly is thought by many
to be the brightest star among the old
boys and it's sure that he was won
derful not alone behind the bat but
in every other department of the
game.

MADE GOOD SHOWING
AL Four Topekans at Rifle Meet Re-
ceived Expert Medals.

Topekans who attended the national
rifle shoot at Jacksonville, Fla, made
fine showing in the meet. Four
members of the Topeka Rifle club
were in the Kansas team of sixteen.
Seven members of the Kansas delega-
ton received expert medals having
made a grade of more than 80 per
cent, and the four Topekans were all
given medals.
J. NJ. Bicknel1 led the Kansas team.
The meet was conducted under diff
culties, as Jacksonville during the
shoot was experiencing the coolest
weather in years. Members of the
Kansas civilians team were forced to
put aside their cots and sleep in the
sand, according to a letter to H B.
Howard. secretary of the Topeka club
from F. L. Howe, a member of the
delegation

And very, very often the only reward
they get for their efforts is a notice
able beating.
Colgate accomplished one of the big
gest surprises of the football year
when she crushed the highly touted
Illinois eleven, Is to 8, on its own
home grounds. The western football
enthusiasts still are gasping over the
defeat of this team that was undis-
puted western champion 1914 and CO.
chmpion last season.
Colgate's Great Record.
But Colgate, where the student en-
rollment is only about 500, has a habit
of introducing surprises to the dis
comfiture of its foes. Its team of
the football world. 1t flattened Yale,
Is to 0, rolled up 107 points against
Rensselaer, Polytechnic, beat the
Army 10 to 0, and triumphed over st.
Lawrence and Stevens by the same
scores, A to 0. Its only defeat was
doled out by the huge Syracuse team,
after Colgate had rolled up a 223 to 0
count against its previous rivals.
Colgate isn't a ringer" college. It's
student requirements are of the high
est. The faculty does not favor foot
ballers. No matter how great a foot
baller a student may be he must be
up to standard in every one of his
studies or he Is ruled off the team.
All OF which makes the Colgate show
ing the more remarkable.
The Colgate gridiron folks give to
Larry Barnkart, coach. the major por-
ton of the credit for the great record
compiled by Colgate. They regard the
former Dartm outh gridiron star as one
of the greatest football tutors in
America, which he is. But Bankart,
modestly losses back the bouquet to
the players.
1.-THE glory belongs to the boys" he
declares. at has been their wonder
full fighting spirit. their great courage
and their chain lightning brain that
has won for them. What they have
lacked in Drawn they have made up

What of CarIetono
''Where and what is Carleton ., has
been the oft repeated football quizz
ago when the Carleton eleven startled
the football world by defeating the
powerful Chicago team. to 0.
No football result in recent years
has occasioned az much amazement.
Chicago gave Carleton date because
. It figured it needed som ething soft in
the preliminary games. And the
Carleton husl1ies came from out of
their small zoo enrolment college in
Mortified. Mimi, and jo1ted all the
championship hopes from the bosoms
of the MarOOns.
They grow some awfully husky
footballers up in Minnesota and Carrie
ton undoubtedly packed a burly squad.
But beefs alone doesn't win football
games in this era. 1t requires much
more brains and speed, and these
Carleton boys must have had those
! too, else they could not have won from
one of the crack teams of the west.
Carleton was almost unheard of in
the gridiron world before that COM
bat The official football score keep
err thought so little of its doings that
he ignored Carleton in the 1914 and
1915 record books. But the Carleton
! team of 1915 has carved a noticea BILE
niche in the Hall of Fame. and left a
lasting impression upon Chicago and
| environs

But LOUD
Colgate Always Makes a Big
Noise in Football World.
Enrolment Small, but GridirOn
Scores Are Always Large.
BY FRANK G. MENKE.

New York, Oct. 27.-Colgate is an
other of these few miner league col
leges'' that plays major league foot
ball. With only a few hundred stu
dents to draw from, Colgate each year
sends to the football battlefield an
eleven that distinguishes itself in a
glorious way.
Once upon a time, the big colleges
used to regard the Colgate meeting as
a sort of practice affair" But no
more Colgate has become one of the
most feared foes in the country The
big boys put their strongest elevens
into the field against the warriors
from Hamilton, n. Y; they play the
game to the full limit of their powers.

CHEWING GUM SMALLER
People Won't Pay More, So Size of
Sticks Decreases.

Chicago, Oct. 27.-Even chewing
gum isn't elastic enough to withstand
the tension of the high cost of war.

father of the gum chew" propaganda
in America. The tariff on chicle has
been doubled, it cannot be obtained
in this country. 1t has to be import

pie aren't particular enough about
what they put in their mouths to pay
2 cents-therefore, we thin out the
sticks and use less chicle"

The Nebraska
Sanitarium

The Nebraska Sanitarium, situated
at College View, still continues to be
the place where people go who want
plenty of fresh air, good nurses, com
petent physicians and the best of
treatment.
Situated as it is on the hill near the
College View university it is an ideal
place for sick people who need fresh
air and a quiet place free from the
busy hum of industry and the buzz
and whir of street cars.
From year to year this institution
has continued to grow until its repu-
tation as a nice place to go has
reached to nearly every state in the
Union. Patients who desire the eli
mate of the mountains, coming from
the east, find it to their advantage to
stop here before continuing to the
higher altitude, that the change may
not be too much for them. Many Of
them doing this have discovered that
their trip to the mountains need not
be taken for the pure Nebraska air
and the treatment given those
in charge Of the Nebraska sanitarium
has done all that was expected from
the trip to the mountains and have
gone back to the east fully recovered.

Amusements Uptown

To the state fair visitor who after
spending day at the fair does not
care to return for the evening pro-
grams, there will be found plenty of
amusement features in town which
he can take advantage OF. Many of
these will be of a high-class char
acter and we'll worth spending an eve
ming of recreation.
The Oliver theater, as usual, will
present for the benefit of the public
q program of some of the best plays
that can be secured. In all proba-
bility the Lincoln Players, the stock
company now under engagement for
the summer, under the supervision of
John Prince, will be the attraction,
and, If so, those interested in the
legitimate drama will have an oppor-
tunity to see and hear something
/ good.
The New Orpheuu will put on its
usual program of nigh-class vaude-
willie and pictures of the best char
acter; the Strand and the Lyric will

give programs of vaudeville and
pictures, also Of high class, while
the Elite a..d the Lily will give
vaudeville and pictures of the dime
variety. The Majestic and the Mag
net will give purely pictures of the
very highest class, while the Muse
will follow along the same lines. The
Wonderland and the Palace will be
the nickel shows, both of which give
a very high grade of pictures. There
fore, the state fair visitor who spends
an evening up town will have plenty
to take up his time and variety to
select from.
Added to these attractions will be
the two parks. Electric park, with
its beautiful electric display and free
shows, and Capital Beach, with its
big lake for boating and its salt water
lake for bathing, which, with its free
shows, will be the mecca to which
many will 60, especially if the week
is a warm one.
Added to these attractions will be
the free band concerts and the pleas
ure of mingling with the crowds,
which to many is treat well worth

a Time brings its changes and as the
years come and go this has been
shown in no greater degree than in
! the growing west, where cities spring
j up almost in a day and wild prairies
have become the most fertile and
beautiful garden spots the country
has ever seen.
Especially is this true in the history
| of Nebraska's beautiful capital city.
Forty-five years ago where now
ands the costly and beautiful $780,,
o government building nothing was
evidence but high knoll, from
hich the Indian in his search for
ne wild buffalo took survey of the
urounding country, that he might
cate some straying drove or dis
. |over the location of his fellow
ytHntsmen.
III There was nothing to obscure his
Vision. To the west was the winding
! stream now known as Salt river, with
here and there clump of trees grow
ing on its banks. Just a short dis
lance away was low ravine, origi-
mating in a small basin, while in an
kother direction was small pond
Partially filled with water.
Where the ravine then lay is now
the location of some of Lincoln's
best store buildings on N street.
From the basin rises the lofty and
> beautiful twelve-story Security Mu-
tual Life building, while from the
pond has arisen the Ridge & Guenzel
department store building, the big
Little building, the City National
bank building and several others.
Just few hundred feet from the
shores of the pond stands the fine
ten-story First National bank build
ing and the fine, modern Terminal
building now under process of con-
struction, while not far from the
small basin stands what is said to be
the finest and most up to date depart
ment store building in the west, that
of Miller & Paine.
