Once more Allee's "fake" was worked, and Young went straight through Purdue's weakened center for five yards, with the famous 6S0 pounds of Purdue's center players on his back.

Young's wind was crushed out of him and time was called. Conover got rady to take his place, but the warhorse walked around for a minute after staggering to his feet, and announced himself once more ready to play. The Missouri team were now on the five-yard line. A familiar signal was- given, Purdue made a good stand, but it was no use, for with a strong rush Hal Conley's grinning and dirty face slid under the Purdue team, and he Just landed over the line with the precious ball under him and chewed his gum furiously while the Purdue men unloaded from off him, about seven deep.

Saturday night the boys of both teams, and particularly those from Missouri, started out to "do" the town. They began operations at the Grand Opera-house. Thev behaved rather well for college boys, only punctuating the performance with the M.

S. yell. When the girls in Miss Trapic's school gave the "Tiger, Tiger, M. S. instead of the Rah, Rah, Rah of Yale in the first act, the boys joined in and raised the roof.

In the last act. during the minature Yale-Harvard boat race, any one would have thought that the Missouri University had in some manner won the race judging from the yells that came from the audience. After the theater the red paint was slnn around town with a lavish hand. Tin horns and college given in slurred and hoarse choruses resounded through the down-town streets until morning. The police were not interfered with and the only appreciable, effect of the college boys' visit will be the reduction of the visible supply of Bromo-seltzer to-day.

Phifer Has Had Narrow Escapes From Death. Recalls the Accident in the Wabash Yard s. A Dmngerons Way, Trodden bj Many. Perhaps Without Knowing It. "I don't recalf the accident." "Well, it occurred about five years ago at Twenty-second street.

The engine I was on ran into- a passenger train, it was the pulling of the reverse lever that saved my life. There was a smash-up and I was dragged out from tinder the cab after about ten minutes. It 'Seemed longer." "Were you hurt much?" "I had my side stove in. My hip was Injured, three ribs were broken -and I was scalded some. So, as I was sa.tfng.

after a man has Iwen In two or three smash-ups he doesn't scare easily." "Yes, but all the same, to haTe a doctor tell you that he can't do anything for yon; that tine of your lungs If gone, is ejtiiYalent to a sentence death." "That's what my wife thought, but I didn't regard it so, and as you see, way-up as the doctor may be. he wrong." Mr. G. H. Phifer.

a fireman on a switch engine in the Wahasb yards for the paat eleren years, and who liven at 1103 Armstrong avenue, turned to hl interviewer and paid solemnly: "There is ahaolutely no question bat 'what I was saved from a lingering death by the skill and Intelligent treatment of the opeland specialists. I went to work weeks after I was civen ray first medicine and I've never missed a day since. I am forty pounds heavier than 1 was. I don't cough at all. Look Mr.

Phifer took a long breath and inflated his chest. 1 "I can do that now. and for eleven years to draw a -full breath was like sticking knife Into me. I was so sore and full of pain In the right side and in the chest and back that I couldn't lie down without sufferiug the most excruciating agony. I've been cured now for nearly a year and i am cured for good.

"But. to begin at the lieginDiug again, I had pneumonia eleven years ago and after that acquired a chronic lung trouble. I was all right at times, except for the cough and the weakness. and then at times I would he down bad. I bad to quit work every winter, and often had to lay off during the rest of the year.

I went to several physicians spent a good deal of money for medicines and got no benefit. I was coughing a great deal and raising matter with blood. I got aw fully weak. Had night sweats so that even me bedclothes would he wringing wet. Was pallid and yellow.

Had headneiies and never, with a sore throat. I am not one of the give-up- kind, how ever, and even when told by two different pnysi-cians that I couldn't be cured. I kept up all right. I knew that If I ever let down I would go to pieces. "So one Sunday, while lying on the sofa.

I read about a cafie in the papers that was exactly like mine. It told about a cure effected by Drs. Cope-land and Thompson, and after thinking the matter over I concluded- to see if they couldn't do something for me. I went down to their offices in the. Odd Fellows Building, and had a consultation with Dr.

Thompson. He pronounced my case bronchial catarrh and asthma and pooh-poohed the idea about my right lung being gone. I paid $5 for my first month's treatment, got my medicines and began to take them. As I say, I went to work in two weeks and have never missed a day since. In four months I was discharged cured and I have been as well and strong since as I ever was ln my life.

The cost of the whole thing was less than t'M. and when I say that I was lucky, I know what I'm talking about." 81,000 Forfeit. The Copeland testimonials differ from those commonly published by medical advertisers, because they come from people right here at home, or near home. Ir. Copeland knows no better way of showing their reliability than to offer a forfeit of $1,000 as a guarantee of their genuineness and sincerity.

As Is well known, this public offer Is as good as a private contract. These testimonials prove that catarrh In any form Is a curable disease under the Copeland system of treatment. PI BLISHIXG NAMES. A word of remark may not be out of place regarding the publishing of the names of patients treated and cured. While such publication is made each week in the daily papers, and the name and address of the patient given, so that the statement can be easily verified and substantiated by any one.

it should be said that all such statements are entirely voluntary. ON NEtJTEAL GKOTJND. The Pugilists Could Avoid the Author- ities Near El Paso. EL. PASO, Oct.

19. There are Indications that the Corbett-Kitzsimmons fight will be pulled off in the vicinity of this city. Along the Rio Grande, just below El Paso, there are a number of strips of land formed by the constantly changing1 course of the river which are in dispute and 'over which no jurisdiction is claimed at present by either the United States or Mexico, as the boundary commission has not yet passed upon it. There are some pieces on Uie left bank belongiing to Mexico and some on the right bank belonginig to Texas, and some of the owners of these pieces have titles from both the United States and Mexican Governments, yet neither these governments are exercising any Jurisdiction over these pieces of land. The continuous shifting of the river has caused these islands or strips of land to bo considered as neutral ground, and it was partly to settle these disputes that Mexico and the United States appointed a corrr-mission eight years ago to determine the exact boundary line between these two countries.

The claimants of the respective lands have been expecting to see the matter ettled lor ine iimsi a yrnni, ana ir is not iikely that the matter can be settled at all soon, as the commission has no final jurisdiction In the matter, and can only recommend to their respective governments their findings and agreements. This state of affairs is due to the disregard which the United States government has paid to the Rio Grande water question for the past 15 years. As it would take at least several weeks to make the surveys lestermlne the ownership of the Dresent neutrality, there is now a splendid oppor tunity for naving ins prnjnjsea content come off on this ground, where neither government can interfere.

Then the ball was passed back to Allee, and with an unerring kick he sent it to Purdue's twenty-five yard line. Then the Missouri boys made a desperate stand, and Purdue three plays did not net them more than two yards. Missouri took the ball, and Pauley pluneed through tackle for three yards. The guards went back and big Brigham gained seven yards, with the whole Purdue team hanging around him. Shawhan went out, with good interferenc, around the en" for a gain of three vards.

Then the right end was tried, and Young took the ball through an openine, and shaking off two or three men, pushed past the line and scored the first touch down for Missouri.

SCIENCE VS. STRENGTH. Th Missourians Won by: Superior Gei eralsiip-, Snappy 1Y. Kuck and Endurance. Tiger! Tiger! 'Rah! "Rah! 'Rah! Purdue was in yesterday's game for just exactly three minutes.

After that she was never at any time dangerous, her heavyweights being toyed with by the lighter Missourians. It was a case of beef vs. science, and, as usual, science came off victorious with a good deal to spare. Had the game, been played in any other city in the United States it would have been witnessed by at least 15,000 people. Even Kansas City could have turned out that iiumber to see such a game; but the best St.

Louis could do was about one-tenth that many. What the crowd lacked in numbers, however, it mad up in enthusiasm. The grand stand was half filled, and the west bleachers were comfortably rowded. There was a fair sprinkling of ladies, who ehowed their devotedness to the game and their farnrltA cnllee- hv frantically wav ing bunches of ribbons at ppportune and appropriate moments. drags and coaches, each with Its gay crowd of well dressed gentlemen and ladies, and all handsomely decorated, lined the east jside of field and lent a brilliant color to that usually barren part of the grounds.

A delegation from Drury College, 100 and Including many ladies, came all the way from Springfield to yell for the Tieers. And they found plenty to yell for. Although Purdue was not without followers it is safe to say that nine out of ten er eeiators were "pulling" for Missouri with all their might. Consequently it' was a happy and well satisfied crowd that filed cut of the grounds after the game. And whv should they not be satisfied? hid j'tst witnessed the best game of f'-ctlnll rer playrd in the West.

That Pe-ru-na cures chronic malaria needs no farther proof than the thousands of testimonials of grateful patients. The Rev.

I am a minister of the Gospel and pastor of St. Paul Church of this place.

Last spring I was taken down with malaria fever after a severs attack of la grippe. Many of the friends and. members of jny church gave me up as hopeless.

'Missotnl taok the south side against the wind, i Evans kicked off thirtv yards and Jamison rcturn-d fifteen yards. In the first play Purdue made a gain and the Tigers took the ball on downs. Pauley went three yards through tackle. The ball was fumbled, but a Tiger dropped on it.

Then Shawhan shook his long hair out of his eyes and made a beautiful tun around the end for a gain of ten yards. Young made two yards. Then the ball was passed to Allee, w-ho male a good kick, and the Purdue men fell on the ball in their territory. Moore made a good run an! got ten yards for 'P-trdue. This was the best gain for during the entire second half.

Smith tried his play, but made no gain. Robertson made a good lins play, but lost the ball as he went over a Missouri player. A Purdue man fell on it and saved it. Purdue tried another center play, and gained a scant two yards, but ihey were stopped there by Thompson. The referee called third down, and Purdue tried a kick, but it was spoiled by the Tigers and Purdue lost ten yards and the ball.

The Missouri team took the pigskin near Purdue's 25-yard line. The next play by Missouri was a "fake," and succeeded finely. At the' signal Allee made a backward run as if to kick. The Purdue men scattered to stop it. Instead the ball went to Young, who bored straight through Purdue's center for a gain of five yards.

The ruse fooled Purdue, and netted a good gain for Missouri. In the next play Allee again went back at the signal, and this time the Purdue men expected another "fake," but were as much disappointed as before. Allee kicked and the ball rolled back of the line for a touch back. The ball was then brought to the 25-yard line, and the teams lined up five yards apart. Purdue took a field kick, but the ball went out of bounds nd another trial was made from the 25-yard line.

Again Jamison's kick sent the ball outside the side lines and Missouri took the ball near Purdue's 25-yard line. Shawhan made a good run, but was obliged to run so far around that he gained but one yard. Missouri tried to play through the Purdue center, but was held and lost the. ball. Perdue gained one yard through the line, but were stopped on the next try.

Shawhan, with his leg bandaged from knee to ankle, did yoeman service in bucking and tacKimg. Auee punted finely and dis played great coolness In the face of the Purdue rushers. And Capt.

Young well he was a team in nimseix. Capt. Robertson and Kirschoff did the best work for Purdue, although the play of Esterline. Moore and Webb deserved commendation. Jamison showed to advantage in bucking the line, but his punting was weak, and Purdue invariably lost ground on an exchange or kicks.

The Missourt ends were very fast in following the ball on points, ant generally downed the ball where it fell. In this they greatly- excelled their opponents. It must be said" in praise of Purdue that when they realized that the game waa going against them they did not take advantage of their superior weight and strength to resort to slugging, but continued to play clean root ball to the end After the game both teams returned to the Southern Hotel and in the evening were the guests or Ue olr Hopper at the Grand Opera House, where they startled the major part of the audience by inject ing college yells into the performance at all stages.

It seemed to be a regular walk-over for the Hoosiers, and people were asking only "How much will they score?" But the tide changed at once.

It was returned twenty yards by Jamison. The Indiana men kept together weli. They now tried a rush and Moore made a good gain of ten yards. He was downed in good shape by Evans. Purdue now made two plays without gain, and on the third down gained only one yard, so Missouri got the bail.
