AN INGENIOUS FOOTBALL
TRICK FAILS.
The opening of the Rose Poly
Vanderbilt football game in Nash
ville, Tenn.. recently, developed
a brand new one. Following the
kickoff. Rose lined up hurriedly,
then shot a long pass toward the
side line to a man in citizen's
clothes. He ran forty yards and
was downed by the Vanderbilt
safety. To the astonishment of
all, he then took off his hat, coat,
trousers and shirt and was found
wearing a regular football uni
form underneath. Vanderbilt
players had not noticed that only
ten Rose men had lined up In
regular positions.
"HURRY UP" YOST'S
ENTHUSIASM FOR FOOTBALL
KNOWS NO BOUNDS
Coach Yost of Michigan is pointing
his strong eleven for the big games
with Pennsylvania in Philadelphia on
Nov. 9 and with Cornell in Ann Ar
bor on Nov., 1G. "Hurry Up," as he is
called, says the Wolverenes are strong
er this year than last and will pile up
a big score on both Tenn and Cornell.
Yost is unquestionably one of the
best football coaches in the country.
His whole heart and soul are in the
game, and his enthusiasm is un
bounded. An illustration of this is recalled
which happened five or six years ago.
It was before the annual game be
tween Penn and Michigan, which that
particular season was played at Frank
lin field.
The Ann Arbor squad landed in Phil
adelphia the night before the game,
and after seeing his charges comfort
ably housed Yost took a stroll around
the city, finally landing in one of the
newspaper offices, where he had a
friend in the sporting department
Every one was glad to see the Michi
gan coach. The usual questions were
asked about his team, their weight,
ability, and so forth, and in the course
of the Interview the changes in the
rules were discussed.
Yost was warming up to his subject
and getting more enthusiastic every
minute.
To better illustrate his ideas, he got
hold of two chairs to represent players
on the field. These not being sufficient,
he secured three more, which were
lined up to represent a back field.
The "players" were then moved
backward and forward as Yost ex
plained several plays that were possi
ble under the then new rules.
He soon pounced upon other chairs
until he finally had eleven.
Then there was a circus, and the
the racket was deafening as the foot
ball coach moved his "men" from one
position to another on the floor, talk
ing all the time at a mile a minute.
Meanwhile the noise had attracted
reporters and editors from other de
partments of the paper, and for awhile
Yost had an audience of between twen
ty and thirty persons, to wr-om he was
lecturing on the possib' ities of the
new rules. For ten minutes the whole
machinery of a large daily paper was
stopped while he, now firetl with a
prophetic fervor, was breaking up the
furniture and imparting much 01 his
enthusiasm to those around him. That
is Yost.

year. This is Marshall's second sea
son on the eleven. Up until recently
he played at quarter, but Coach Andy
Smith believes he will do better al
half. Marshall can run 100 in ten flat
almost any day.
Ventriloquism In the Bible.
Ventriloquism has its first historic
mention, as far as we are aware, in
Isaiah xxlx, 4, "And thou shalt be
brought down and shall speak out of
the ground, and thy speech shall be
low out of the dust, and thy voice
shall be as one that hath a familiar
spirit, out of the ground, and thy
speech shall whisper out of the dust"

I R. CO. PROTESTS
T
The county board of equalization,
composed of County Judge Beatie,
Assessor Jack and County Clerk Mul
vey, has for several days been consid
ering protests against assessments.
The Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company has objected to a valuation
of $200,000 of what was formerly the
Moore Donation Land claim, part of
which is leased by the Willamette
Pulp & Paper Company and part by
the Crown-Columbia Paper Company.
It is requested that the assessment be
reduced to $20,000. The company con
tends that the property is operating
property, but Assessor Jack declares
it js not inasmuch as part of it is
leased. Thomas Boggles asks that
the assessment on land owned by him
in section 16, township 4, range 6 east,
be reduced from $300 to $250. B.
Tscharner says the assessment of his
realty and persanalty on North Wash-
! ington Street is too high. A. C. A.
Barclay asks a reduction of realty
and personalty assessment, the prop
erty being lot 4, block 6 on the West
Side. T. L. Charman asks that the
assessment of the Charman block on
Main Street be reduced from $18,000
to $15,000. R. C. Ganong and Eliza
beth Fuchs also ask reductions.
MISS LUCILLE PtJGH.
Portia has been reincarnated! Ai
least that is what all good theosophists
would say. This time the fair Portia
is not a tall, commanding dame, as
pictured in combat with the grizzled
old Shylock. Oh. no; she is quite the
opposite a petite and lovable little
maid, five feet tall and tipping the
scales at a tritie over 100 pounds. But
she is all there, and. despite her di
minutive stature, no other woman law
yer in the world, excepting the original
Portia, of course, has ever been so
much talked about as Miss Lucille
Pugh, the first of her sex to defend a
man accused of murder, and a negro at
that.
"Did she win?" gasps some breath
less feminine interrogator. To be sure
she did. and. what is more, she made
every one in the legal profession the
world over sit up and take notice.
When Miss Pugh was assigned by
Judge Swann of the New York general
sessions court to the defense of Leroy
Poindexter it will be recalled that she
compelled a disagreement by the jury
in the first trial and made so strong a
presentation of her case in the second
trial, after thirty-three hours of de
liberation, a verdict of guilty of man
slaughter in the second degree a com
paratively minor offense was render
ed. But the indefatigable counsel for
the defense, dissatisfied even with this
flattering result of her efforts, is seek
ing now a third trial in the firm be
lief that Poindexter will be eventually
acquitted.
As a matter of fact few better ex
amples for the equality of the sexes
can be found than in Miss Pugh's
achievements, a southern woman,
whose birthplace is Hamilton, N. O.
But what would a southern woman of
the olden days think of one of her sex
and race standing up In defense of a
man accused of murder, and a negro at
that?
With a modesty that is real Miss
Pugh hides even from her friends her
long struggle along the road to suc
cess. Opposed by her family and
friends, discouraged by the failure of
others of her sex in the difficult re
quirements of the law course in New
York university. Miss Pugh was upon
one occasion almost at the point of
abandoning her efforts to secure ad
mission to the bar and accepting an
offered position as reporter for a cos
mopolitan newspaper. But with un
wavering fidelity to a plan of action,
once carefully outlined, she persevered,
though six members of her class left
the ranks.
During business hours Miss Pugh al
ways wears a tailored skirt and a coat
and waistcoat of mannish cut, with
the conventional collar and tie. And
there is excellent reason for this at
tire, as the convenient pockets are in
variably filled with legal documents,
notebooks and all the necessary legal
paraphernalia. Nor does Miss Pugh
appear at ail masculine in her trig
business suit; she is too essentially
feminine for that. In fact, the man
nish cut of the costume seems to suit
her style exactly.
We're Going Some Nowadays.
In 1800 no woman could make a will,
could enter college, any industry, trade
or profession outside the home. Wo
men were not the legal parents of chil
dren. In 1848. due to the agitation
of women suffragists. maiTied women
were permitted to control their prop
erty. In 1867 New York state permit
ted women to make wills.
A Woman's Prayer.
God, thou Creator of my woman's soul.
Grant me an answer to my heart wrung
plea.
For ages men have taken ruthless toll
From bonded womanhood, and we
Have clung In silence to a slavish past
Nor dared refuse the toll lest love de
part. God, give us courage to protest at last
And trust to thee the treasure of the
heart.
God, give us power to save the little child
From grinding toil and politicians' greed;
To clasp the hand of maids by lust de
filed And be their refuge In the hour of need.
Give us the right to take an active part
In fellow service and to prove our worth.
Enfold uh. God. within thy mother heart.
That peace may reign upon a love
crowned earth.

LIVED ON
RAW EGGS
Mr. Richard's Experience With Dif
ferent Diets. Peaches and
Buttermilk for Three Years.
Cecilton, Md. Mr. George Richards,
of this place, during the past 12 years,
has probably tried more different diets
than the average person would ever use
in a lifetime.
What he has to say about his experi
ments, must therefore be highly interest
ing to anyone suffering from indigestion
or stomach troubles of any kind.
He says: "For more than 12 years,
I suffered with stomach troubles, and
paid hundreds of dollars for doctor bills
and medicines. I was also operated on
for piles.
I lived on dried peaches and buttermilk
for nearly three years. The only thing
that would not give me pain was raw eggs.
I was a physical wreck. I could nol
sleep, and was as near crazy as a man
could well be.
I must say that after taking two 25-cenl
packages of Thedford's Black-Draught,
it did me more good than all 1 ever spenl
for other medicines.
I have been working daily on the farm
ever since, and I am as hard as iron."
This purely vegetable remedy has beeq
in successful use for more than 70 years.
Tryit. But be sure that it's "Thedford's."
