PAGE SEVEfl,
BIG YEAR K EXPECTED
fl IN WESTFRN FOOTBALL
Chicago, Aug. 29. This looks like
another great year for Western foot
ball. With one or ; "two exceptions,
the powerful elevens that attracted
national attention last year will be
almost intact. Any vacant spots will
be plugged with some of the most
promising , material Western grid
irons have seen in years,
Outside the Western Conference,
Notre Dame, on paper, appears to
top any eleven in. the west this year
and the West expects to see the Catho
lics score a decisive victory over Yale.
The materiel at Michigan this fall
looks woefully weak when compared
with the squad Yost had last year
and a victory over arvard in the
other great intersactional clash of the
year is scarcely to be expected.
Notre Pame has lost but two men
from the great eleven of last year
Rcckne and Dorais. Dorais' place
will be filled from a trio of good re
serve men but the problem of finding
an end to replace Rockne will be a
serious one.
Of the Western Conference Elevens,
Chicago, Wisconsin and Illinois look
best at this stage of the game. The
Maroon eleven, Conference Champion
ship last year and undoubtedly one
of the greatest machines the West
has produced, will be a trifle weaker
at the opening of the season. Capt.
Norgren, an all-American selection
in 1913, and Fulback Pearce, are lost
to Coach Stagg. There is no dearth
of material at Chicago University,
however, and the Maroon eleven
should be in the running for another
championrhip from the start.
Wisconsin counts upon some of the
best material in the West from the
1913-14 freshman class to replace ve
terans graduated last June. Illinois'
line-up from 1913 is practically in
tact. Coach Zupke made a brilliant
showing at the downstate school in
his first try last year and is expected
to produce a contender for the cham
pionship. Bear stories are emanating from
Minnesota, where it is said that sev
eral of the stars of the 1913 eleven

will not return to school. Purdue
lost most of her best men last June
and Northwestern'! team is not be
lieved to be of championship timber,
Of the other Conference schools, Ohio
State is said to look better than last
year; Indiana's prospects are some
what improved, but Iowa is not count
ed upon to be the factor she was in
1913.
HAY FEVER SEASON
.OFFICIALLY OPENED.
New York, Aug. 29. Throughout
the length and breadth of the land
the official hay fever season will open
tomorrow to the accompaniment of
approximately 635,427 sneezes. That's
the number of hay fever victims who
are said to suffer annually in the
United States.)
There may have been numerous
hay fever sneezes heard previous to
day, but these were merely desultory
cachoos. . They were, so to speak, the
advance guard of the forces which
will open with the heavy artillery of
sneezes tomorrow.
By some strange fate or law of na
ture which as yet is not explained
the victims of this obnoxious malady
sometimes after the date, according
to many victims, they are attacked.
It is about that time that the pollen
from dandalions, and other growths
begin to float through the air, and it
is the presence of these all but invisi
ble tiny particles in the atmosphere
that causes the hay fever. Only af
ter the first frosts do the majority
of sufferers get relief from constant
sneezing and other uncomfortable ef
fects of hay fever.
SOCIALISTS PLAN YEARLY
POTTER'S FIELD SERVICE.
Oakland, Cal., Aug. 29. The Ala
meda county socialists party is mak
ing arrangements to make an annual
feature of their memorial service at
the potter's field of the county infir
mary for those to whom they refer as
"victims of the captilistic system."
The recent initial service of this char
acter was a highly impressive cere
mony. Socialist women from all over
the country brought flowers, the ser
vice was read by the Rev. Wilmot
Friend of an East Oakland Baptist
church, and there were music,
speeches and prayers for the unnam
ed pauper dead.
Motorcycles Run Tomorrow.
, Laporte, Ind., Aug. 29. With near
ly g score entered the Laporte Mo
torcycle Club will hold a run from
here to St. Joseph's, Mich., tomorrow.

CARBUNCLE OF MEXICO HAS
AT LAST LOST ITS CORE.
(By William G. Shepherd,
United Press Staff Correspondent.)
Mexico City, July 29. ((By Mail
to New York.) It's a different Mex
ico. If all Job's boils had burst at
one and the same time, and all the
pain and purple, fevered swelling had
disappeared in one grand bang of
cores, Job might have felt something
like Mexico feels today. The wond
er to a man who has had a carbuncle
lanced is that so much pain can dis
appear in such a short instant. And
Mexico today is like an ex-sufferer of
carbuncle wondering and happy
and willing almost to kiss the sur
feon. t ',
A little;, iron-grey haired Indian,
with a stubby mustache had dashed
through the streets of the capital one
morning in an automobile; he had
alighted at a railroad station, climb
ed into a waiting Pullman, said to the
porter, "Hello, my boy; glad to see
you! If you've got anything to
drink in this car bring me a double
cognac." The engine bell had rung,
and the conductor had shouted, "AH
aboard," the train had started and
the core of Mexico's carbuncle -had
been expelled. That railroad engine,
No. 27, was the strongly - drawing
poultice; Huerta, sipping his good
bye cognac, was the core; the Mexi
can capital and all the land of Mexi'
co was the happy patient.
There were hundreds of thousands
of men in Mexico who slept soundly
that night for the first time in many
months. The rich man slept peace
fully in his mansion because he knew
that at last his wealth was safe; the
peon slept soundly in his dobe hut
because he knew that Huerta, the man
who in the dead of night dragged
peons from their beds and families
and put them into his starving army,
had gone. The wonder of it all, to
rich and poor, was that anything so
small as a Pul!mr.r car coach could
cany away from the nation such a
gigantic horror as this man
Huerta had been. But the Pullman
car did it. In the Arabian Nights a
fisherman found on the seashoro a
small casket which contained the ter
'ible Genii which, when released, was
to huge in size it filled the sky. So
the Pullman car, with a little iron
grey haired man, sleeping in his
clothes, on a red plush settee, inside,
contained a terror that had been sus
pended over the nation like a- vast
cloud and that had hung over the
lives and homes of Mexico's men, wo
men and children as the shadows of
the dead volcanoes hang over beauti
ful Mexico City.

LOOK OUT FOR ARMY-WORM
MOTHS WITH COLORED WING
U. S. Dept. of Agriculture Requests
Public's Assistance in Deter,
mining Moth's Habits.
Washington, D. C, ; Aug. ., 25.
Everyone interested in the destruc
tion of the arrr.y-wcrm pest is being
requested by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture to look out for army
worm moths with one artificially
colored wing. The Department's en
temologists are catching army-worm
moths where they are plentiful, col
oring one wing of each, and then lib
erating them in the same territory,
so that they may determine whether
these moths fly directly west, or
north, and how quickly and far they
will spread. A better knowledge of
the hebits of this pest should enable
the department to control its spread
No moths are to be let loose where
their liberation could possibly add to
the natural damage.
The moths are already showing
themselves in Virginia and in Mary
land, and the department's agents ate
catching specimens at Portsmouth
and Charlottesvifle, in Virginia, and
Hagerstown in Maryland. The agents
at Portsmouth are applying a red
stain to one wing of each specimen
caught; those at Charlottesville a
black or yellow stain; and those at
Hagerstown, a violet color. Then
the moths are left to follow the nat
ural course they would have pur
sued.
"Look for army-worm moth with a
colored wing during the coming
month," the department's bureau of
entomology is advising its agents
east of the Mississippi. Any one ob
serving a marked specimen will aid
in the campaign by reporting the fact j
to the bureau of entomology, Wash-f
ington, D. C. When its presence has i
been noted, the moth f hould be des-1
troyed.
How to Recognize the Moth.
The wings of tbe army-worm moth,
when outspread, measure about 1 1-2
inches from tip to tip. The body is
about half this length. The genera!
shape of the moth with its wings out
spread is triangular. The moths
will hover about the lights in the
evening, un larnis, tney win De
found on the outside of screens r.nd
Jeers at night. They will probably
be observed in the daytime. On dark,
hot, close nights, such as precede
thunder storms, they will probably
be especially noticeable.
The army-worm pest has caused
considerable damage to the crops and
lawns this summer throughout the
me Industry

Northern United States east of the
Mississippi. The worms are only
now disappearing in Northern Maine
and Michigan, which were probably
hatched from the eggs of moths mi
grating from more southern portions
of the country. With the additional
knowledge that this experiment will
give, the department hopes to con
trol the spread of the pest more com
pletely in coming years.
TERRIBLE MASSACRES ARE
REPORTED IN INTERIOR CHINA
Shanghai, Aug. 29. Conditions of
disorder in interior China such as did
not characterize even in the revolu
tionary period preceding the Man
chus' overthrow two and a half years
ago were reported today by foreign
ers who arrived here frcm Hankcw
end other up-country points.
Throughout Honan, Hupeh, Shansi,
and Anhwel provinces, they said bri
gandage is rampant on such a scale
that cities even of 200,000 and 300.000
population are unsafe from attack.
Scores of smaller towns have been
sacked. Frightful massacres have
been perpetrated and loot worth mil
lions have been carried off.
Bodies of troops aggregating 20,-
000 or 25,000 in number are in the
field against the outlaws and there
ahve been dozens of skirmishes and
a few tolerably respectable battles, in
which bandits have held their own of
ten as they have been beaten. No
quarter is shewn on either side, the
victors invariably beheading their
prisoners and in some cases torturing
before killing them.
Opponents of the President Yuan
Shi Kni's government are said un-
ouestionably to be encouraging the
bandits' activity to be supplying quan
tities of arms and ammunition and to
be doing their utmost to weld the
numerous bands into a single force
for anoher revolution.
Southern China revolutionary
agents are busy in the vicinity of
Canton and Piracy on the West River
has reached such proportions that ev
en foreign shipping is endangered.
PEACE PROSPECTS FOR
MEXICO SAID TO BE GOOD.
Washington, D. C, Aug. 28. Paul
Fuller of New York who, it is pre
dicted, probably will be the next am
bassador to Mexico, reported to Pres
ident Wilson today that there was lit
tle danger of a conflict between Villa
and Carranza, and that prospects
for continued peace in Mexico were
bright.
