PASSON'S DEPARTMENT STORE SPLENDID MUSICAL TALKNT. The Lambardi Grand Opera Company Talented in the Krst Degree.

The opera presented Saturday night by the Lambardi Grand Opera company, "II Trovatore," was one of the finest things that was ever heard in the city. Voices of such volume, clearness and tone have not been present with any other company that ever visited Lawrence, and the audience sat entranced as the beautiful music of the grand opera was translated and presented by the sweet singers. The individual work of the prima donna of the company, of the tenor and of the gypsy girl was magnificent, and the chorus work joined with the splendid singiogof the stars of the cast, wrought upon the musi cauy inclined wno were present and ap plause of the most enthusiastic sort, fol lowed the beautiful passages, in the opera, and time and again the singers were com pelled to respond to curtain calls. About half of the company was in Law rence, and was accompanied by an orches tra of ten pieces. Ths acting, as a rule was very costumes were wretched ana tne mempers 01 tne company were far from good looking, but no one thought of these things as the music poured from their lips during the evening.

Deco Sets -in- Prat H.D. Adams Considers Kansas Has no Grounds for the Demand on Nebraska. The Kansas university athletic board met today to consider the question of the Nebraska football games. Prof. E.

D. Adams reported the results of his conference with the Nebraska officials. As the meeting of the representatives of the association last winter Manager Deck er of Kansas demanded two games with Nebraska. Missouri and Nebraska considered this unreasonable, but Mr. Decker refused to recede from the position he had taken until George Shedd, the Nebraska representative, agreed to give up their egular Thanksgiving game with Iowa.

Manager Decker then signed the sched ule for Kansas, which included but one game with Nebraska, that to be played at Lincoln on November 18. The object in having Nebraska forfeit their Thanksgiving game was to force Iowa back into the league. The loss of that game was a blow to the Nebraska management for it has always been their main source of financial gain. After looking the matter over very care fully Prof. Adams decided that Nebraska had a much better case than Kansas had.

According to bis recommendation therefore the board this noon passed a resolution that the Nebraska game should be played at Lincoln on November 18, and that no ef fort should be spared to prevail on the Nebraska team to come here for a game.

I Toe Pennsylvania Team's Strongest Players Were From Kansas The following taken from an account of the game played last week between Pennsylvania and Bucknell teams, shows bow well the formerly of Kansas boys played the game: Kennedy's work at halfback was the most brilliant that has been seen on the local gridiron this season.

He played back on kicks and ran through the oppos ing team for gains varying from twenty to fifty yards, picking his openings with wonderful cleverness and dodging tack- lers in a manner thai would even open the eyes of little Dibbles of Harvard. His touchdown was made on a twenty-yard run around left end, on which he was tackled by five dinerent uuckrs men. Downed eight yards from the a. be rolled over and over until he was be hind the goal. Next to Kennedy, Mccracken came in prominence in this half.

On end runs OS sprinted through the Bucknell men as they were so much tall grass, knocking over tackier after tackier and frequently carrying the ball ten and twelve yards with three and tour men a angling to his legs. Three of his end runs were good for forty yards each, and he made a number of shorter gains of from eight to twenty yards. (Jutland also ran most brilliantly xrom the half-back position, once receiving the ball on a kick on bis own five-yard line and running it back fifty-five yards before he was finally brought to tne ground. AN BABY GAME. The Kansas University Football Team up Againsta Snap Saturday.

The game played by the Kansas univer sity football team Saturday afternoon was the easiest thing it has run up against this year, it was tnougnt tne wasnpurn team would prove a strong antagonist, but the contrary was the case; and the college team from Topeka proved to be as weak as ever, and tne victory won Dy tne var sity team was no indication of great strength on its part, but rather of great weakness on the part of the other fellows. The University boys were in pnme condition for the game, and played fast bard football. The game was a clean one, as it was so easy that there was no excuse for anything else. No one was hurt during the afternoon, and there was very little playing for time. The best playing for the University team was done by Tucker, Avery, Wilcox, Nofsinger and Moore, in the order named The best playing for Washburn was done by the Hughes boys and White.

The crowd that witnessed the game was about 400; the day was very warm for football, and the dust arose in clouds as the players moved back and forth across the field, and it was impossible to tell who had carried the ball until after the dust had been blown aside.

Secretary Wilson will not return to' Washington with the presidential par ty from its western trip, but will go to Clear Lake, where he will deliver speech October 18 before a conven tion of Iowans which is to be held to consider the question of erecting sugar beet factories. "The money with which to build these factories has been provided," said the secretary, "and we must now get the farmers interested.

They do not seem to realize the impor tance of making beet sugar, and i will endeavor to awaken interest and show what handsome profits can be made. The few who are making beet augar are reaping a profit of 80 per and this can be increased if the farmers will feed the pulp to their cows. In a few Instances that is being done, and it can be used successfully as horse feed. "It is possible for the American farmer to raise enough beet sugar to supply the home needs, and a surplus, which can be profitably exported. Thla kind of augar can be raised as cheaply as cane augar, and our farmers will be able to defy the competition of the world.

As is well known, all farming implements have been revolutionised, and with American machinery, which will do twice as much work as any other, the sugar market can be controlled absolutely by our own citizens. "It has been said that beet sugar la not aa good as that produced from cane. This is not true, and when all the impurities have been removed it la im possible to tell beet augar from that made from cane. Another advantage in raising sugar beets is that It does not impoverish the soil." CAN'T TAKE THEIR WIVES. Reply Which Secretary Root Makes to the Many Request from Armty Oflleers.

Many requests from army officers have been received at the war department for the privilege of taking their wives with them to Manila. To all euch a firm denial is sent. This reply is made by Secretary Root to the appeals: "I have your letter in behalf of who wishes to go on a government transport with her husband to the Philippines. 1" regret that 1 am constrained to deny her request. On account of the exposure and danger to which they would be subjected, Gen.

Otis has protested against sending any more women to the Philippines as long as an insurrection exists in the island of These are uniformly declined, not only on account of the recommendations of Gen. Otis, but because of the limited passenger accommodations at the disposal of the government. Moreover, the war department is of the opinion that the best interests of the service, as well as the safety and welfare of those most con-; cerned, make it inadvisable for the I wives to accompany officers now serv- ing in the Philippines under hazardous conditions resulting from active milt- tary operations in the field." HISTORIC EMBLEM. Historic Flaar Improvised Dartaa; the Civil War Presented to Admiral Dewey. On board the Hartford during the civil war a quartermaster named Knowles improvised an admiral's flag by stretching four white stars on a blue field (a This was flown on the Hartford and later on the Franklin.

When the Tarregut atltue was unveiled in Washington on April 26, 1881, one of the survivors of the Hartford's crew flung this flag to the breeze. That survivor wus Bartholo mew Diggins, now enptnin of the watch in the state, war and navy department building. Cant. Diggins has handed this flag to Commander Baird to be pre sented to Admiral Dewev. After the Farragut statue was unveiled the department allowed Mr.

Diggins to turn into store at his expense a new flag and keep the old one. The bunting is in a good state of preservation. It will no doubt be prized by the admiral.

ACCIDENTS IN WAR TIME. Aa Ol Campaigner Relates Seme Extraordinary Happealnsa la Battle. "The glorious uncertainty of war has passed into a proverb, and truly there is no knowing from moment to mo ment what may occur. The improbable is always happening, and every cam paign yields a fresh batch of in stances in support of the statement, said an old campaigner at the Audi torium the other night. "Thus in the recent Hispano-American war a trooper in the famous Roosevelt rough riders, who had passed unscathed through the whole of the campaign (Including the treacherous ambush in which the rough riders lost 60 many men), while clean ing out his carbine preparatory to leaving for his native land, came across what he took to be a spent cartridge.

This he threw into his camp fire. A fearful explosion immediately took place and a burning brand from the scattered fire struck the poor young fellow In the face, blinding him in both eyes. To go unharmed through an arduous and protracted campaign and then to be permanently disabled by a cartridge from one own carbine is surely one of the hardest ironies for which inscrutable fate is responsible. "During one of the half-hearted bat tles fought between the Chinese and the Japs an incident happened which would be aU but incredible were it not vouched for on the highest authority, A Chinese foot soldier was kneeling lu the trenches taking aim at a Japanese officer in the distance, when a bullet from the enemy entered the muzzle of his rifle, passed down it, exploded the cartridge and blew the man's face off. When we take into consideration the diameter of a rifle barrel and reckon up the likelihood of a stray bullet striking it exactly in the center it will be seen that the odds against this extraordinary incident were as millions to one.

And yet, strange to say, a very similar thing took place during the bombard ment of Alexandria by the British in 1882. The Res-el-Din fort offered a stub born resistance to the warships and several of them had to train their guns on the place before Its big guns were finally silenced. During the thick of the engagement, just as one of these monsters was about to be fired, a huge projectile from one of the ships entered the fort and wedged itself firmly in the muzzle of the gun, entirely precluding its further use. When the victorious bluejackets entered the fort they found the cannon, with its strangely plugged muzzle, and photographed it. Marvel ous to relate, the heavy charge in the gun was not exploded by the shock.

"During the last Zulu war a certain chief of herculean build gave a great deal of trouble to the British outposts, He carried at his girdle a brightly gild ed norseanoe, and superstitious Tommy Atkins said that as long as he carried this curious charm no bullet would be able to touch him. At last, however, a young lieutenant picked him off as he clambered over the, rocks and a rush waa made to secure the gilded horseshoe as a trophy. Tlien a curious discovery was made. The bullet had passed clean through the brawny savage, and. striking against either his ribs or his spine, had been flattened out roughly into the shape of a horseshoe! Both bullet and shoe are now in the posses sion of the young officer mother, fcr he, poor lad, perished in a night attack not long after killing the chief." Chi eago Chronicle.
