FOOTBALL.
River Falls 10, Hammond 6.
We had our representative on the
ground and intended to furnish our
readers with a scientific write-up of
the last game of football in our city,
but after the game we met a young
friend of ours from near the center of
St. Croix county, and his description
of the affair was so much better than
anything we could do that our report
er threw his carefully worded special
into the waste basket and we print,
instead, our friend’s version.
We had seen him on the street be
fore the game, brim full of Hammond
enthusiasm, sporting Hammond col
ors, and confidentially telling everyone
whom he met that “Hammond won’t
do a thing to those fellows. Why just
look at it. Hammond beat Hudson
bad, and River Falls had hard work to
tie them. Normal played River Falls
to a finish, and Hammond played all
around Normal. And Hammond
is a good deal better to-day than ever
before. No sir, River Falls won’t be
in it. Why, they’re just ‘has beens.’
Yes, I’ll come araund and see you
after the game and tell you how it
happened.”
Well, after the game he came
around. We didn’t suppose lie would.
We had heard that the score was 10 to
6 and that Hammond had the small
end of the argument, and we thought
we had seen all of our friend that we
were going to see< that day. But no,
just behind a bevy of girls who were
singing, “Cheer, boys, cheer, for Ham
mond took a fall,” came our friend,
resplendent in the orange and white
of River Falls, waving a River Falls
banner, and shouting, or trying to,
"Rah, rah, rah, for River Falls has
won.” For a moment we were too
much surprised for utterance. Then
we got him by the collar, and be
recognized us and broke out with, “O
say, I said I’d tell you how it happened
and I just will. Q, but It was great.
We didn’t do a thing to’em. But you
ought to have seen it.” We inter
rupted him to say that we thought he
was shouting for Hammond before
the game. “I was,” he said, “but a
fellow can learn, can’t he? You bet I
can. You see it was this way. I’ve
been hearing all sorts of things up at
Hammond and around country among
their friends about how their team
was coming down here to fix us plenty
and those fellows were talking awful
big about the ‘stuff’ they were
going to put up on the game, and I
began to think there was something
In it. So last night I went out and
watched ’em practicing, when I hap
pened to be up at Hammond, and say,
they did trot around lively. I heard
’em talking about ‘ripping up their
line,’ ‘running over their ends,’ and
‘letting Dean do some drop-kicking,’
and a lot more like that, and then I
saw them take the ball and run up
against nothing, and I tell you they
did tear it up great, and I thought I
wouldn’t like to get in front of them,
and I could see the finish of River
Falls, and I made up my mind I be
longed to Hammond. Well I just got
worked up till I could see Hammond
getting 30 to 0, and one young fellow
that lives up our way was betting that
way, and then I went upto the game.”
“Well, first, Hammond came out,
and I tell you the way they did run
around and limber up was wonderful,
and I raised that score a little. After
a while River Falls came out on the
field, and when I saw them get Into
place and gothrough the same per
formance that Hammond had, and run
up against nothing awful hard, I began
to think maybe it wouldn’t be more
than 30 to 0 after all. But then I re
membered about the way Hammond
talked, so I began yelling for Ham
mond and offering to bet everything
in sight. But there didn’t anybody
hear me. There were about a hun
dred girls there, and they were sing
ing to beat the band about ‘our foot
ball team has come, watch it close,
there’s going to be some fun,’ and I
tried to tell them there would be,
but they didn’t hear me, and then
River Falls kicked the ball straight
at the Hammond team, and I began
to watch the fun. All the time I was
yelling for Hammond. Well, Ham
mond got the ball, and they began
Jumping around and trying to rip up
the line, and I was looking for the
River Falls boys to get out of their
way and give it up, but they didn’t.
They just got right in front of those
Hammond fellows and threw them
down hard. And Hammond didn't
run over the ends very fast. Andi
stopped yelling once in a while to see
how it was going on. Those Ham
mond fellows seemed to be working
pretty hard and going pretty slow,
and all the time the girls kept singing,
and it didn't seem to encourage
Hammond. Then one big River Falls
player got his shoulder hurt and quit
playing, and I said ‘pretty soon the
rest of them will quit,' and began to
yell some more. But they put in a
little fellow, not more than half as
big as the one that was hurt, and
went right on playing.
Then all of a sudden I saw a lot of
River Falls fellows rip up the Ham
mond line. and then Hammond didn't
have the ball any more, and while I
was trying to catch my breath I saw
that Hammond was going back a good
deal faster than they came up, and It
was River Falls that was doing the
‘ripping up the line’ and ‘running
over the ends’ and all at once there
was a drop kick right over the goal,
but it wasn't Dean who did it, it was
Jenson, and the score was sto 0 for
River Falls, and the fellows who bet
on 30 to 0 for Hammond were feeling
awful blue.
Well, 1 didn’t begin yelling for
River Falls then, but I lay low and
watched. Well, sir, they kept on just
that way for the first half, and when
I stopped to think it over while the
teams were resting, I concluded that
River Falls had been doing the rush
ing and I swung around. Then I got I
scared again. You see, Hammond
got the ball and then they did rip up
the line until they had made a touch
down, and the score was 6t05 in
their favor. Hammond seemed to be
ripping up the line again, until all of
a sudden something seemed to get in- j
to those River Falls fellows,
whether it was the singing or not I
don't know, but they went at that
Hammond line like a young tornado,
and Hammond was thrown back and
tried to kick the ball. Then, just as
Dean brought his foot up against the
ball, something got in the way. One
of those River Falls boys, named
Skogmo, was right there, and so were
about half a dozen others, and the
ball hit him and bounded toward
Hammond’s goal and three Ham
mond fellows and twice as many
River Falls players took turns falling
on it and kicking it, but none of
them could get it, until it rolled over
the line, and Jenson fell on it, and
It was a touchdown. Then the
girls stopped singing, and they yelled,
and everybody yelled, and I yelled,
and, when I came to, Hammond was
kicking off again and the score was
10 to 6in favor of River Falls, and
you bet I knew where I lived. Then
River Falls started in to rip up the
line again, and the girls started to
sing some more, so I joined in. Then
Jenson punted about "0 yards, and
Hammond got frantic and tried a
criss-cross and Sweet made them lose
a couple of yards; and they tried a
double pass and Griffin made them
lose two more; and everybody was
yelling except the girls, they were
singing, and I thought River Falls
would make another touchdown by
carrying Hammond backwards, but
the time was up and they had to stop.
That was all that saved Hammond.
Then I got these colors and started
down town, and there were those girls
still singing, and I’ll be hanged if
they alnt at it yet. You bet it was
a great game, and River Falls
didn't seem to care a bit if some
fellows did say they couldn’t score
on Hammond. They just went at it
and mixed things up so that Ham
mond was glad enough there wasn’t
any more time. Hammond feels
pretty blue.”
Then our friend left us, and we
have been trying ever since to figure
out the ethical value of football.
However, the game of last Saturday
may be in itself an answer to our
problem. It was an exhibition of the
great sport at its best. It showed
what can be done when the players of
both teams keep their heads and play
the game on its merits only. It was
clean, fast, scientific football, a game
of which no one need be ashamed.
The winning of it leaves the pennant
in this city for another year, giving it
to the Normal. That the High won
the game was, no doubt, in a large
measure due to the magnificent sup
port that the rest of the High school
gave them, a support in which they
were well aided by a large number
from the Normal. The rooting for
the day took the form of songs, pre
pared for the occasion and sung by the
High school, who, with about 30 from
the Normal, had practiced them in
mass meeting on Friday afternoon.
After the game the ladles of the
Highschool banquetted the two teams
in G. A. R. Hall, and a very enjoyable
time is reported. The young ladles
certainly proved experts in the art of
entertaining.

Did You Know This?
Do you know that a neglected cough or cold
leads to consumption? More people die from
the effects of catching cold than from any other
known cause. There is one remedy, and re
member it only costs twenty-five cents, that
has proven a safe, unfailing cure for coughs and
colds. It Is called Mexican Syrup. Your drug
gist has It or will get it for you. It heals and
strengthens the lungs and breathing passages,

Are you growing thin and sickly? Has your
skin a pale or sallow tinge? Do you not occa
sionally feel a hollow sensation in the pit of
your stomach, or a queer distress In your bowels?
Do you get easily vexed, nervous or fidgety?
Probably you are nourishing some stomach
worms, a lengthy tape worm, or else a thousand
pin worms, that are devitalizing your entire
system. You can expel them by taking Mother's
Worm Syrup. Nothing else is so effective.

Better health always follows a use of Mexi
can Root Pills, simply because they cleanse the
