THANKSGIVING
FOOTBALL
Pair of Great Games Are Being
Played on Western Gridirons
This Afternoon*
The Western Championship Involved
—Minnesota and Michigan
Picked to Win.
Chicago, Nov. 26.—Two great foot
ball games are scheduled on western
gridirons this afternoon. The western
ohampionship depends on the results in
each and intense interest is aroused.
In Chicago the greatest game of the
^ear is being played between Michigan
%nd Chicago University. Michigan is
the favorite, but Stagg's men are ex
pected to show a stronger front than in
fcny other contest df the year and a great
deal is expected from the wonderful
punter, Eckersall, in the way of field
goals.
The game at Madison between the
universities of Minnesota and Wisconsin
attracts equally as much attention here
as the local game. While Minnesota is
generally conceded the better team, the
bargers have always a way of putting
tip a fierce fight on their home field and
with the reported development of Bain
in kicking field goals the score may be a
Surprise for gopher enthusiasts.
A well known authority here pre
dicts Minnesota to win from Wiscon
sin by three touchdowns and Michigan
to defeat Chicago by two, with a possi
bility of both Chicago and Wisconsin
securing a field goal.
Minnesota must defeat Wisconsin by
a larger score than Michigan or Chicago
secured over the badgers in order to
win the championship. Chicago won
to 6 and Michigan 16 to o.

HOW'S THIS FOR A RADISH?
Walla Walla, Wash., Nov. 26.—If you
aren't a Missourian, just take C. W.
Winterringer's vyord that he has raised
the champion radish of the world.
Winterringer has a ranch in the rich
Palouse country, which is known as
the "Horse Heaven" ranch, being situ
ated not far from that famed nooki
where almost every known form of
plant life is said to flourish.
Last week he dug, pulled or other
wise removed from the earth a single
radish four feet seven inches in length
tnd meaadBring' twenty-two inches in
circumf^tt^iifceat the most bulbous part.
It is femirfcen inches longer than any
radish ever harvested in this section o!
the country.

BLAMES MARCONI.
-London, Nov. 26.—An English scien
tist has a new explanation for the ex
cessive rain fall to which England has
been treated in the last few months.

holding that'the electricity re
leased into the air by the wireless tele
graph system causes to fall the mois
ture which would otherwise be retained

New York, Nov. 26.—Officers of the
steamer Denver of the Mallory line, just

sion with the bark Araby Maid at sea
thirty miles off Tortugas Island, Satur
day. The first mate and a sailor of the
bark were drowned. Eleven of the crew
were taken off by the Denver life boat.
The bark sank in the heavy sea Hvhi^h

Fitz-
simntofis demonstrated once more that
he is still the grand old man of the
ring by winning the fight last night with
George Gardner. The contest went the
full twenty rounds and Referee Graney
gave the decision to the lanky boxer for
tois decidedly better showing. There
was only one knockdown in the game
and Gardner was the man who hit the
floor. Bob claimed that could have put
Gardner out but injured his hands early
in the game and was unable to strike a
hard blow. Fitzsimmons showed better
generalship than Gardner and Had his
opponent outpointed at all stages.
Gardner was strong and willing but
lacked the science of his older antagon
ist. The decision was favorably re
ceived, though the crowd had hoped for
a knockout.
