That Is the cry that kept earth and atmos
phere vibrating at Y. M. C. A. park yester
day afternoon. It Is the slogan of the Uni
versity of Nebraska , and while not verj
pretty , It Is extremely fetching.
But It was a great game , and a great vic
tory for the lads with the crlmzon and white
striped hose , and greater defeat for the old
gold gentlemen from Iowa. They were a
\ i husky , brawny looking crowd , and Inspired

doubt and Incertitude molted away like snow

result was a foregone conclusion before t
single point had been scored. At the outsel
Captain Sawyer's cohorts showed up alarm-
Irgly strong , his line seemed Imprcgnabli
and It looked llko devastation and annihila

crouched on the outer line and drew hli
breath In oltumated Installments , nnd foi
the first five minutes he looked as It In t
state of suspended animation. But the pig
skin had not been In motion for a longci
time than this before the doubts vanished
from his classical brow , the fires were re
kindled In his eyes and his sturdy lungi
flapping In the autumn winds like a pair o
old overalls on a clothesline. His practlcei
optics quickly foresaw the outcome , and li
his exuberance of Joy he ran from ono poln
to another without touching the ground.
The superiority of Nebraska's line was dc
oldedly marked , whllo her lucks wore 3 !

Every spectator of a foot ball game Is i
uctlvo participant In all Its varying vlclse

nnd madiTlhelr full share of the music. Tl

Eaiidi who left their turkey and cranbcr
tauco but halt attended to here , made up u
of the handsomest assemblages that has be
scun at any athletic event in this bectl
ot the country for years.
WII13N THE TRAMS CAME OUT.
It lacked a few minutes of 3 when t
two teams came skipping like spring lain
upon the thinned field from the club hoi
In the southwest corner ot the lot , and
course this advent was the signal for
uproar. The Nebraskans were down to t
canvas , but the lowans still wore tin
iw eaters , probably hoping to Inspire fi
ther cheer by their golden hue. They w <
as confident and defiant a lot ol athletes
ever human eye beheld , and before the st :
acted as It they felt they already had t
cam ? salted down for the winter.
They lined up alter this fashion :

The referee was Mr. C. IIVIIson , Prince
ton ; the umpire was Lieutenant Jim Wright ,
Vfnl Point , and Mr. George Purvis , High
school , acted as linesman.
The game opened promptly at 3 o'clock.
Iowa won the toss and took th& ball against
a slight wind from the south , Kepler drove
the ball on the Initial kick to Nebraska' *
thlrty-fivc-yard line. Yont caught the- ball ,
but was unable to make more than a dozer )
yards gain. During the next ten mlnutei
Iowa did her most aggressive work of the
game , but their most savag and determined
efforts succeeded In propelling the pigskin
no further than the Crimsons' twenty-five-
yard line. At the expiration ot this time
Nebraska got the ball on an off-side play ,
and big Fllppln , the Midnight-Mars of the
Gridiron Field , went through the center for
six yards , Wiggins following with a splendid
run around the left end for flftean more.
Fllppln again pushed forward , like ono o
the b-Uterlng rams of Corinthian days for
five yards ; then Fair bucked the center for
five. Dern made the next effort , but was
downed by Collins , without a gain. Yont
succeeded In the flrst good run , carrying the
ball to Iowa's fifteen-ard-llne under Leigh-
ton's superb tackle. Fllppln then forged
ahead for two more nnd was downed but
a half yard from the llawkcye goal line.
There was no checking Nebraska's advanc ? ,
and In another moment Fair had scored the
first touchdown , but failed In his attempt
to kick goal. This made the score 4 to 0 ,
and a grand diapason of cheers went up In
recognition of the achievement. Time , 20
minutes.
In the playing thus far , Individually. Yont
had played the star game for Nebraska. He
made the most important gains , and his
tackling was a revelation In swiftness and
csrtalnty. Fllppln and Dern also put up
some gilt-edge work , while Whlpple was
always In the life and spirit of the play.
Spooner evinced good qualifications for giv
ing the signal , as did Captain Sawyer for
the other side. The Prohibitionists played
with most commendable grit , but from the
niSfcient the ball took up Its travels It
moved steadily northward. Their rushes
against thu Nebraska llns seldom resulted In
B" nS >
WIGGINS' GREAT HUN.
On the following lineup Oury caught the
ball en the kick off , and made a zig-zag run
right through Iowa's line for twenty yards ,
which the aerial Yont Immediately supple
mented with ten more. Icwa's right end
was extremely weak , nnd Nebraska went
round or through on every attempt she mads.
Hero followed the star run of the day , the
supple Mr , Wiggins being the lucky Individ
ual. Ho mads cnly seventy-flve yards , nnd
was downed by Allen barely flvo yards from
the goal line. This great amble was made
pcsslhlo by the superb blocking ot Fllppln
and Dern. Player after player In the yellow
hose went Into the colored boy as if shot
from a catapult , but there was not stopping
him in his beautiful warding. They bounded
cff his Iron sides llko hall pellets from a
duck's back , and with Dsrn's skillful Inter
fering seldom got back again , The cheers
that followed this beautiful work had not
yet subsided when they welled up afresh as
Colonel Fllppln , by sheer brute force , maJc
Nebraska's second touchdown. Again Fair
failed In hla attempt to kick gcal. Tlmo , C
minutes. Score : Nebraska , 8 ; Iowa , 0.
In the third kick off Fllppln caught the
ball , but could only make ten yards befors
ho was downed by Saw > er and Collins. Fair
then executed the flrst field Kick , a gooJ
ono for forty-five yards. Hcrrlg got the ball
but Oury had him hugging the turf before
ho had made up his mind what to do with
it. The referee's whistle at this Juncture
signalled that the fint halt was up.
After ten minutes' recuperation Fair kicked
cff for Nebraska. Herrig secured the ball and
iccovcrcd twenty yards arwUnd the left end ,
I when Yont downed him. Converse added five
more through Dern and Wiggins , and Collins
through the .center for ns many moro. Ne
braska then got. possession cf the sphere In
down , nnd by a tucccsslon ot neat tricks
by Wiggins "and Jones , Dern got away with
the ball , and galloped llko a wild horse for
I sixty-five jards , WlUon doing Etmo artistic
blocking en route , landing safely with the
ball over the goal line. Fair's third attempt
to Kick goal -was a buto , and the score stood
i 14 to 0 In favor cf the crimson and the white ,
' Time , 7 minutes.
I Iowa kicked off , andl the ubiquitous Yonl
didn't do a t.ilng but tuck the pigskin undei
his right wing , and by doubling and dodglnj
i and some of the tallest running ever seer
on a foot ball field pulled off another luscloui
t'tichdown. Again Major Fair applied hli
little hoot Jo the ball , nnd It went hurtllm
over the bar Joining the goal psts. Score
Nebraska , 20 ; Iowa , 0. Time , 2 minutes.
MADE IT TWO DOZEN.
Dern mufpd Iowa's kick , but adroitly savcc
the boll by dropping upon it. Wiggins am
Fllppln made gains of seven and ten yard
respectively and Dern around the end fo
an equal number. Nebraska was now wel
onto the flimsy character of Iota's rlgh
end , and massed most all her plays In tha
direction. There was a rapid succession o
gains. Every trial was a success , and finall ;
Jones gathered In his llttlo touchdown , bu
at a disadvantageous point. Yont essayed t
punt out , but stepped over the line , and tin
ball was brought out to the twrnty-flve-yan
line and kicked off. Score : Nebraska , 24
Iowa , 0. T'me. 4 minutes.
The flrst gain after the kick was Yont'
around the end for fifteen yards. The crlss
cross wns then added to Nebraska's cholc
bric-a-brac , Fllppln passing to Wiggins , vvh
carried the ball for thirty yards , and Our ;
on to Iowa's five-yard line. Fllppln hai
llttlo dlfilculty In going through for anothc
touchdown and Fair as gracefully Ulclce
goal. Score : Nebraska , 30 ; Iowa , 0. Time
D minutes.
Iowa kicked out on foul ground and Yonl
getting the ball , followed with a gain ot elgh
yards ; Whlpple and Fllppln adding flvo cacl
and Yont again for fifteen around the lei
end. Allen was then lifted out ot the gam
by Umpire Wright for slugging , Ingersoll r <
placing him. Collins was likewise allowed t
escape , ou the score of a wrenched knei
Fickles taking his place. A succession c
short runs brought Nebraska up to Iowa' '
twenty-yard line , and Yont went round tli
left end tor this dlstanca and scored th
leventh and last touchdown of the da ;
Again Fair kicked goal. Score : Nebraski
36 ; Iowa , 0. Time , 12 minutes.
This left but seven minutes tlmo on tl :
second half , and notwithstanding the hopi

at Once ,
TACOMA , Wash. , Nov. 29. Amid the roar
of an Immense * tidal wave beattng against
the shores of Puget sound 600 feet ot Taco-
m.i's ocean docks plunged Into Commence
ment bay at 11 o'clock last night. Half a
dozen steamers wcro tosseJ about llko chips
and two wcro disabled. At 1:30 : a. m. the
filled-ln portion of the ocean docks was still
settling , and the accident under the threat
ening conditions beginning to asumo the
form of a calamity to the city. H. H. Alger's
house , containing himself , wife and six
children , was turned upside down , spilling
the children out ot the bunks Into the Icy
water , and It Is feared one of his daughters
has been drowned. John Hanson , a watch
man at the Northern Pacific hydraulic pump ,
went down In the debris and cannot be found.
Ho was roasted to death or drowned , In the
opinion of steamboat men. The lire depart
ment was called out at night and 500 more
people had gathered at the wharf. For a
distance of 1,500 feet the ocean dock had set
tled , and it was feared that the big wheat
elevators and coal bunkers would pitch Into
the bay. Several times , when the ground set
tled from sl\ Inches to a foot , a panic re
sulted and there was a wild rush for places
of safety. All the cattle pens of the North
ern Pacific , together with the ofllces and that
company's 400-foot freight house , went down
to the ground , and the flro at once broke
out and the pump station disappeared In the
debris. Nearly nil of the dock which fell Into
the bay Is that portion of the water front
which the city of Tacoma has been trying to
secure from the railroad and Tacoma Land
company. Already the damage Is estimated
to aggregate $50,000. Steamboat men claim
a tidal wave twenty-five feet high rushed up
the sound and tore the dock away.
Employes at the wharf do not credit this
theory. They believe there has been a great
subterranean landslide , or that a great fis
sure or hole has been formed In the bay ,
causing the dock to be swallowed. It Is not
positively known whether the plunging of the
docks into the bay caused the heavy sea
which overturned Alger's boathouse and tore
the steamers away from their fastenings , or
whether It was in fact a tidal wave.
SIMPLY A LANDSLIDE.
Investigation proves conclusively that last
night's great landslide was caused by neither
a tidal wave nor an earthquake. Puget Sound
has very steep shores. Just outside the
Northern Pacific docks the bank slopes Into
deep water at fan angUi of 45 degrees.
Fifty feet from the dock the water Is 150 to
200 feet deep. At great expense the railroad
has put In solid docks of made land , sup
ported on the water side by a rock wall ,
built against piling driven Into the mud.
This was not strong enough to bear the Im
mense pressure , and when the high bank
further up had been made slippery and loose
by recent rains the outer edge of the dock
began to slide and finally gave way. precipi
tating Into deep water ono of the most val
uable portions of the water front.
The submerged strip Is 1,800 feet long and
200 feet in width. Two persona were killed ,
Emma Stubbs , the 15-year-old step-daughter
of H. H. Alger , a b athouse proprietor , and
John Hanson , the night watchman who was
carried down with the engine house contain
ing the holler and pump which furnished the
power with which the bluff side was being
washed down by hydraulic pressure- and the
balance of the wharves filled In beneath. A
few minutes before the elide Hanson had
been talking with Policeman Keene. The lat
ter Is certain that Hanson had no chance
of escape. Neither of the bodies have been
recovered.
Superintendent McCabe says the permanenl
damage to the railroad docks will not amounl
to over $7,000. The work of repairing tin
dock will commence at once , but the rebuild
ing of the sea. wall for 1,800 feet will be de
ferred until the chief engineers at St. Pau
decide- what plan shall bo adopted to Insun
future permanency. The south end of tin
freight house , In which were the- offices ot tin
cashier and twenty-four clerks , went down li
the crash. The office contained $2,400 In casl
and valuable papers worth $12,000. It wai
supposed the safe and valuable freight record :
had been sunk In 200 feet of water , but thl :
evening the two-story building In which tin
offices were located was found partly sub
merged on the beach at Gig Harbor , elgh
miles away. The safe and records are nov
supposed to be safe. A diver has been tele
graphed for to come and search for them
The damage to shipping and other lasses 1 :

Senator Jones nf Arknnin * Dcclnres In
I'nvor of tlmt Course.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 29. Senator Jones
of Arkansas , a member of the llnnncc com
mittee , said today lie had no doubt there
would be nn earnest effort on lno Part of
the democratic members -of the finance
committee to get the nenata to consider the
supplemental tnrlfT bills conccinlng sugar ,
coal nnd Iron ore at the forthcoming ses
sion. He said he- , for one , should advocate
that the bills , as loportcd by the llnance
committee , should be tnkejl up and passed
If po slble. It was suggested to the sen-
ntor that he had been represented as talP
Ing a different position nnd to have ngreeil
at a confeience held nt New Yolk with
Senator Gorman and others to allow these
bills to cllo a natural death without any
effort to revive them.
"I Imve heard , " said he , "that n confer
ence wns reported to have been held , but If
there was such a conference nnd such n.
conclusion was reached I was not In It. "
Continuing , he said he could not BOO how
the democratic senators could , under all the
circumstances , fall to at least make the
effort to pass the bills.
"Of course. " he said , "If there Is a ma
jority in the senate against us we Hindi not
ie able to pet them , through , bift that Is one
f the things that remains to be seen. If
eraln democratic senators who arc sttp-
oscd to bo against the bills prove to be on
lie test really opposed to them , we shall
ot bo able to get favorable action In case
lie republicans should be flolld against fu -
licr tariff action by the present congress.
think the republicans ought to be put on
cord on the sugar bill. They1 have tvvltti-a
ho democrats mercilessly on the charge ot
oiling out to the Sugar trust , when , as
nttny believe , there Is a larger clement on
he lepubllcan side favorable to a duty on
ollned sugar than on the democratic side.
Ve now have a chance , ot Jeast , to see how
his Is. As Is generally known , the sugar
' 111 , ns reported to the senate by the con-
orence committee. Is not the bill ns It
ame from the house. It provides for an
d valorem duty of 40 per cent sttalght on
11 sugars and only differs from the present
aw In that Is strikes out the. differential in
aver of reflneJ augnrs. It cannot \ > u
ilcnded that the passage of suci a bill will
mperli the revenues , unil there can be no
? gitlmate excuse for opposing It , except n
cslro to protect nnd defend the tuist. 1

barges tlmt have been made against the
emocrats In that connection. J'oi his ren-
? / ? n8'well , . ns others , 1 think the pop gun

SAM PAYNE FOUND GUILTY
Verdict of the Jury is that Ho Murdered
Maud Kubol.
LIFE IMPRISONMENT THE PENALTY FIXED
Jlcport Alndo to tlm Court r.nst Kvcnlng
BInlii Contention \VdB on Otunllou of
I'onnlty Unit tlm.lurorn Wcro
nt 1'lrst for Hanging.
After deliberating twenty-seven hours the
Jury In the Sam Payne murder case filed Into
the criminal court room at 9 o'clock last
night , finding the prisoner guilty of murder
In the flrst degree in causing the death of
Maud nitbcl , and fixing his punishment at
Imprisonment for life.
The verdict was to Feme degree a sur
prise. After the jury had been out several
hours , and especially when It had failed to
report after twenty-four hours , the Impres
sion was that It would disagree. It appears ,
however , that the tlmo was consumed al
most Wholly In an cncJeavor to agree on ths
penalty , for less than three hours after the
jury went out a ballot was taken , and all
agreed that the defendant was guilty ot
murder In the flrst degree. It was only on
the question of penalty that the Jury was dl-
v Ided. At first five or six Insisted that Payne
should hang , but finally these yielded to
those who weic set on life Imprisonment.
When the Jury scut word that It was ready
to render a vcidlct Judge Scott and Deputy
Clerk of the Courts Stecre soon reached the
court rocm , and Payne , accompanied by his
attorney , Tuttle , entered from the sheriff's
office. Payne seemed composed as the Jurors
filed In and took their places In the box , but
ho became very nervous as the verdict was
read , and when he realized his fate ho be
came thoroughly downcast.
The jury was polled and dismissed from
further duty until Monday. Judge Scott com
pleted his record , and Payne was ordered
Into the custody of the sheriff until he could
removed to the penitentiary.
Attorney Tuttle said last night that he
would take the case to the supreme court.
This was the sixth murder trial In the
state since the law passed by the last leg
islature went Into effect leaving It to the
Jury to decide whether ono found ! guilty of
murder In the flrst degree should hang or
bo Imprisoned for life. In all of the preced
ing Instances the death penalty was decreed

DENVER , Nov. 29. On October 23Clai -
ence. nnd James Moulton , two brothers , left
their homes to attend an American Pro
tective association meeting , nnd since then
have not been heard fiom. Their wives
are unable to account foi their absence and
have sent ofllccrs to Ilnverhlll , Moss , where
the Moultons formctly lived , to endeavor to
find a trace of them , but their fi lends nt
Haverhlll have seen nothing of thorn. On
May 19 lust the two Inolheia mariled two
sisters in Denver.
The circumstances surrounding the case
are most peculiar , nnd there seems to be
ground for suspecting that the brothers
have met with foul plav. The report com
monly clrpiiluted Is that It Is a simple cu-e
of descition , but the fact that the. two
husbands , who had barely passed that stage
of married life known as the honeymoon ,
nnd whose brief experience In inutilmony

never been the slightest approach of a

cast that Is the condition of affairs lepie-
jcnted by the wives and those
neighbors who were most In a
position to know. Some of these
neighbors had been very intimate acquaint-
inccs of the Moultons and their wives nnd
vould surely have heard It if there had
ever been any unpleasant filctlon within
ho family circles. They all agree that , sc
'ar aa their observations went , there had
not been anything to mar the peace anO
happiness of the two brothers' homes.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 20.-Pennsylvanla ,
IS ; Harvard. 4. That is the score by whlcte
the- wearers of the red and blue today ,
trampled the beautiful silken Hag of the
crimson Into the dirt. It was a grand vic
tory , und one that has u world of meaning
to the sturdy sons of old Pennsplvanla. H
places a new star In the foot ball firmament
and undoubtedly gives Pennsylvania the cham
pionship on His gridiron for 1894.
When the crowd began to gattour at tlio
grounds Ihcro was n grand crush. There
was pushing , shoving , swearing and tearing
of clothes , until finally the crowd bccamo
partially civilized and commenced to enter
the gates In the proper manner. So dense
was the throng , that many were still outslda
the gates at 2 o'clock , when the play should
have been started. In order to enable thcso
to have an equal chance with the early
comers the game-was not started promptly
at the appointed hour. At 2 o'clock the
crowd became restless , nnd admlicrs of the
two teams yelled themselves hoarse In their
endeavor to outdo each other.
The same 111 luck that followed Harvard In
her game with Yale on Saturday seemed to
pursue her today. C. Urewer , Fairchlld , and
Emmons were retired during the first half.
The only point scored In this half was a
safctj by Harvard. Brooke had kicked the
ball within three jards of the Harvard goal
and Hayes , pressed by Ilosengartcn , Minds
and Gelbert , not knowing that he was ho
near the goal line , ran hick and caused two
points to be ( .cored agtlttst his own fclde. It
was a lucky play for Pennsylvania , a tlmo
for the half was called less than a mlnuto
afterward. Pennsylvania's stock took a big
boom during the Intermission and many wcro
the predictions of a red and blue victory.
In the first pirt of the half things had been
going mostly Harvard's way , but the loss pi
llniinous. C. Brewer and Fairchlld greatly
weakened the crimson team ,
WEATHER. WAS PERFECT. *
If Captain JKnJnn _ of Urn. university
foot Ualf , . tram.r and 'Chc
foot ball enthusiasts who "attended the
fopt ball game between Pennsylvania
and Harvard had been allowed to se
lect a day from among the limited -variety
that Old Pi ob has been handing up to us
for the past fortnight , Just such a day as-
today wnuld have been chosen. It Is an
Ideal ono for football. Last night the fol
lowers of the longhair fraternity retired
with the Idea that today was to bo almost as )
cold as some of the weather that Peary has
experienced In his Arctic explorations. But
what a pleasant disappointment when theyi
awoke this morning , to find that the piercing
winds had almost vanished and the frosty
morning was tempered with the rays of a
November sun.
Everything was In readiness for the game.
The seating capacity at the University field
which but a few days ago was limited to 8,000
had been Increased to- the extent ot 25,000.
The entire field was encircled by nineteen
tiers of open seats which begin within a few
feet of the side lines ot the foot ball field and
extend backwards and upwards about thirty
feet and on two aides monopolized a portion
of the sidewalk. The city has taken on a
regular foot ball garb. All the principal bust-
ness houses displayed the red and blue and
the crimson , and the friends of either college
showed their preference by decorating them
selves with the bright colors. It was the flrst
big match played In this city between these
colleges. Everybody was a college boy today ,
As early as 12 o'clock long lines of tbp
football enthusiasts vvcro struggling to obtain
admission to the grounds. The. crowd In
creased rather than decreased/ and at 2
o'clock there were thousands still crowding
for admittance. The four huge stands were
crowded , and there were hundreds standing
about the streets. The sight was a beauti
ful one. Crimson and red and blue flags
were everywhere. Everybody was at the
grounds , The betting Just previous to the
tlmo the game began was G to 4 In Pennsyl
vania's favor.
HAHVAIID WON THE TOSS.
The Pennsylvania boys were the flrst to
come on the field. They made their appear-
unco from the southeast corner at precisely
2 o'clock. George Brooks was In the lead.
This was the signal for wild cheering on
the part of the Pennsylvania followers. All
the team seemed In perfect condition , and
put In a few minutes throwing the ball
around nnd holding secret conferences. Just
fifteen minutes later the Harvard boys made
their appearance at the same corner. This
was the signal for thousands ot crimson
flags to wave frantically from each of the
big stands. The boys from Cambridge- went
through practice for a few moments , and
then the great game was on ,
Laurie Bliss waa chosen referee and Paul
Dashlel umpire ; linesmen , Dr. Brooks and
Charles Schoff. Both teams were called to
the center'hy therefcree und Ktven instruc
tions as to the moda of play. S western vvcrft
pulled at 2:20. : Harvard won the toss and ,
