Special to The Capital. Baldwin, Oct.

C. S. Parmenter. secretary of the Kansas college athletic conference has issued a statement concerning the present conference membership for the purpose of clearing up the contest for conference football honors this season. In the conference at present, Mr.

Parmenter says, are Ottawa university. Southwestern college, Wesleyan uni defender when a young man standing which point Paskert caught one right. With a full swing he put the old bludgeon on the trade mark. The hickory landed between the seams. A second later a gray-white streak was observed wending its flight toward the centerfield stands, home-run territory, and upon this occasion the barren lands for Boston hopes.

Speaker saw at once the danger of his Texan mate. He may have remembered the Alamo, or he may have pondered on the glory of the flag with a lone star. He may have been thinking of the 60 per split In the swag. At any event he went as far back as a wooden barrier would let him go. Speaker can go to places no other outfielder nan, but he has his limit.

He can't go through a concrete or a wooden wall. With his broad back to the palisades, the Texan waited for Paskert's soaring smash, and digging one heel Into the sod he put two grappling hooks in the way of the ball just at the spot where said ball was upon the verge of disappearing into a raving multitude of fans. Just two more feet and Texas would "have been between Mexico and Philadelphia, bounded by Raiders on both sides. iEut for that matter, if Conning Towers, a race horse, had two more feet, old Frank Adams would be a millionaire In place of having his $100 Conning Tower winnings pyramided upon Alexander's ability to win at least three games. A GAME OP THRILLS.

There was a thrill at the start of today's battle that was missing at all times Friday. Undoubtedly the presence of President Wilson and his court put added tone to the occasion. And then whn Hooper walked, there was Mayer facing trouble from the start. Scott staved off disaster for the mo Riley County Boys Kick Two Goal from Placement and Final Score Was 7 to 6. fcDPoUl to The CairtUL Manhattan, Oct.

9. Manhattan lost the game to Topeka high school today by a score of 7 to 6. A forward pass in the middle of the fourth quarter took the ball over Manhattan's goal line for a touchdown and Wilson kicked goal. Manhattan's points were made on two field goals, the first In the second quarter which was kicked from placement by Skinner and the second by Jolly from placement in the third quarter. With only six minutes to play, the Manhattan team took the ball on their own 20-yard line from kick off and by a series of forward passes carried it down the field to within twenty yards of the Topeka goal.

Then by a series of line bucks, forced their way five yards more to be thrown back. An attempt at field goal by Skinner failed. Topeka's touchdown was made after an exchange of punts that brought the ball to within twenty yards of th goal line. Two forward passes were unsuccessfully negotiated by Wilson, who carried it over. The two teams were well matched but in the straight game.

Manhattan had the capital city's men outclassed, holding them re DOOLITTLE SLATED TO GO NEXT YEAR IS BELIEF Four Other Democrats Seek the Congressman's Seat. Siren if the Handsome Statesman Wins Nomination He Is Likely to Be Beaten in the Election. Bpeclal to The Capital. Burllngame, Oct. 8.

The Osage Chronicle takes a look at the Fourth district congressional situation and figures out that Dudley Doolittle will be returned to his law practice at Strong City. That a Republican will succeed Doolittle seems to be the prevailing sentiment over the district. "In-decision" on the part of the voters, the Chronicle believes, caused the re-election of Doolittle last year. And, coupled with the three-cornered fight, made it easy for Doolittle to slip in. That condition will not prevail next year, as the more than 8,000 votes cast for Welty, the Progressive, will go to the Republican candidate, which would mean his election by 4,000 or 6,000 majority.

The Chronicle says: "Last year the vote was very light, the Increase as a total showing only about 20 per cent, notwithstanding the franchise was used as largely by women as elsewhere in the state. Indecision on the part of many voters between the Republican and Progressive tickets has been given as the most reasonable explanation. In 1914 the Democrats won the district by about 4,000, while the Progressive ticket polled between 8,000 and 9,000 votes. Next year it Is expected that this vote will be transferred almost In its entirety to the Republican ticket, for It is not thought that a Progressive candidate will be nominated or if nomi versity, Friends university, Fairmount college, College of Emporia.

The constitution of the Kansas conference provides for a committee to go over the records of the different teams at the end of each season and select the champion. "At the last two meetings," Mr. Parmenter says, "I think the sentiment of the conference was against the awarding of championships. They made no awards at these meetings. It is expected that there will be an amendment offered for the constitution at the December meeting doing away with this Mr.

Parmenter says that the application of Haskell institute for admittance into the conference has been definitely refused. "This vote wag not taken with any desire to be unfair or unkind to Haskell. Mr. Parmenter explains, "but because the school's scholastic ranking is about the same as that of an academy and we do not feel that we can open up the conference WHEN you know the tobacco joy there-is in a little nibble of pure, rich mellow tobacco, you naturally feel sorry for the man who spends more money for ordinary tobacco, and gets less satisfaction for it.

When Wyatt came in he asked what was going on and the woman told him. She also explained that she wanted Rigby to pay back the money that was lost In his pool hall. Rigby assured Officer Wyatt that he didn't allow gambling in his place and said the boy ought to be arrested for gambling. "Take him (the boy) to the station," said Rigby, "I'll appear against him."

The Chronicle thinks Doolittle will win the nomination in the Democratic primaries unless the fight against him in his party is centered on one man.

it mentions A. W. Kopke, of Emporia; C. E. Hatfield, of Lyndon; Representative J.

A. Mahurln, of Burlington, and Senator W. M. Price, of Emporia, as possible Democratlo candidates. This paper Intimates that Kopke is running in the Interest of Doolittle; that he is in the race to head off Senator Price, who, the Chronicle believes, Is the strongest Democrat to pit against Doolittle.

"With only one candidate against him, Doolittle might be beaten," the Chronicle believes. Discussing the Republican field of candidates, the Chronicle mentions Senator G. H. Lamb and George Matthews, of Woodson county; Upward F. Martindale and Howard Hodg-uon, of Greenwood, and Clyde W.

Miller, of Lyon county. When the final list of Republican candidates Is made up, the Chronicle says, the above named gentlemen will probably be on the primary ballot. Others talked of a month or more ago, it thinks, will not be candidates. BELONGS TO TWO COUNTIES. Very naturally, the Chronicle Is supporting Clyde Miller because he is a native of this county, and while he lives on his ranch over the line in Lyon county.

Cravath started the vocal cataclysm by pounding one down the left field line for two bases and Luderus drove him home with a long double to right center. So rose, flashed and faded the Philly attack upon the bewildering supply of fancy pitching that Foster pushed athwart the plate. Foster is no behemoth. Tou might add a foot to his stature and 50 pounds to his weight and still not call him a cave man.

But he had the arm and the head and the heart, which is all that a pitcher needs. TOO GOOD TO LAST. After this flurry the battle consisted mainly in Boston's rabid attempt to break through the Philly defense. Stock killed a hit back of third. Whitted raced forty yards to pull down a left field blow, and in the eighth Lewis rapped one that left a flaming trail of fire, only to have Bancroft rush over hook the ball with his gloved hand and murder another hit at first.

But this sort of thing could hardly last forever. The pessimist is absolutely correct, so far as Philadelphia fans are concerned. They, too, will admit now that there is always an end to the good things of the world. Only the evil that men do, as Avon Bill remarked, lives after them. Even that defense could stand up no longer when the ninth" was reached and Gardner singled.

Janvrin's top to Mayer put Larry on second, and Foster's long blow to center sent Gardner home with a tally that looked as big as the base of Mount McKinley. The queer part of this game was that Philadelphia, with three hits, should have given Boston such a battle against the batting, pitching and fielding that Boston displayed. Only Mayer's coolness and his support kept the game a contest. Of the fourteen brilliant fielding plays made through the afternoon, Philadelphia gathered nine and Boston five. That was the margin that made a battle In place of a rout.

SOW ITS UP TO ALEXANDER. So, after all, the Philly hopes and dreams again go back to the business shoulder of Grover Cleveland Alexander. It is Alexander now or nothing.

9. After spending two days inspecting the several proposed high-water routes across the Marals des Cygnes valley, State Engineer Gearhart reported to the Pleasanton Commercial club the route that he deemed best. It calls for a dyke that will reclaim 1,300 acres of fertile lands from overflow and at the same time provide a dry road. The land owners are ready to begin to organize and build the dyke. There will be considerable grading outside the dyke, but the people here are enthusiastic over the proposition and expect to raise the funds and push the work to completion.
