Cement in Panama.
An idea of what the Panama canal construction means to one industry in this country may be gleaned from the fact that almost a million tons of cement will be used in the gigantic work. Shipments have already begun in steamers owned by the government which will carry about 8,000 tons at a trip. It is estimated that it will take about four years to deliver the 4,800,000 barrels of cement contracted for at the present rate of shipment. The government will profit by using its own vessels instead of chartered ships, as there will be no charges for demurrage in case loading or unload- ing is delayed by storms.
At the last Fourth of July celebra- tion in a little up-state town, a Vir- ginia maid shocked the other inhab- itants by flying a confederate flag from her bedroom window and declar- ing her intention of emulating Bar- bara Frietchie, with or without a Stonewall Jackson to assist her against insult to the flag.
A few days ago the same little rebel happened to be crossing the border, coming from Montreal, where she had been visiting. The immigra- tion inspector boarded the train and asked her the usual question:
"Are you from the United States?" "No," retorted the little rebel. "I'm from Virginia."-New York Times.

It wasn't a horse doc- tor at all. It was only a man!"-Ev- erybody's Magazine.

IN FOOTBALL WE WIN AND SALINA WE SKIN,
OTTAWA'S GRIDIRON ARTISTS TOOK THE SEASON'S FIRST GAME, SCORE 6 TO 2.
Slow Playing on Both Sides With Some Brilliant Work Were Features.
The first football game of the sea- son was played Thursday afternoon when Ottawa defeated the Salina Wesleyans by the score of 6 to 2. The game started with Ottawa kicking to the Wesleyans who chose to defend the south goal. Alderman lifted the pigskin high and it sailed 50 yards down the field to the Methodist's left halfback, who returned it ten yards. Two downs netted no loss and they kicked thirty yards to Alderman. Ot- tawa failed to gain and was forced to kick. Wesleyan couldn't gain and was forced to kick Ottawa was downed with the goal forty yards away. Here Ottawa tried an onside kick but lost the ball. Wesleyan failed to make the required ten yards and the ball was given to Ot- tawa. A quarter-back run by Thomas netted seven yards and a line plunge by Frink for Ottawa made first down. A forward pass netted Otta- wa fifteen yards but Ottawa lost the ball to Wesleyan on a fumble. Wes- leyan kicked forty yards to
Otta- wa but lost the ball on a fumble. A quarterback run by Wesleyan gained five yards. Wesleyan kicked to Ot- wa on the fifteen yard line. Alder- man here punted twenty-five to Wes- leyan. A forward pass gained twen- ty-five yards for the Methodists but on the next down "Batty" Frink cap- tured the ball on the ten yard line. A quarter back run gained nothing for Ottawa and Thomas called for a punt, but the ball was passed over Alderman's head. "Turkey," howev-
er, fell on the ball behind the Wes- leyan goal line, making a touch-back for Wesleyan. The ball was brought out and punted out to Wesleyan in the middle of the field. Wesleyan gained two yards and the half end- ed in the middle of the field.
The second half saw a shifting of the lineup and Coach Wann's lecture between halves did some good for Ottawa played decidedly better ball. Frank Price went to quarter; Capt. Coe was switched from end to half and "Teddy" Reynolds, went to Coe's end. Hickey also played Lusk's end a short time. The play started by Wesleyan kicking to Frink, who re- turned ten yards. Coe made ten on a crisscross and Frink made twenty on a forward pass . Price made a good gain and then the teams sea- sawed back and forth till Frink tore through the middle from forty-five yard line over Lundy, who took Hut- chin's place. Frink tore through and with the speedy Price running inter- ference, carried the ball to the ten yard line. Here Frink again made three, Coe three and "Batty" Frink carried the ball over the line . Alder- man kicked goal.
Ottawa kicked to Wesleyan. Ot- tawa took the ball away from Wes- leyan with thirty yards to go. Here Price carried the ball, running alone in a broken field, and put it on the five yard ilne, where time was call- ed.
The Wesleyan team is coached by Frank Eberhardt, of Indiana State university.
The lineup follows:
Ottawa: Bower, c .; Hutchins, 1. g .; Miller, r. g .; Martin, I. t .; Cros- by, r. t .; Coe, Capt.), l. e .; Reynolds, r. e .; Thomas, Price, q .. Frink, 1. h .; Irwin, r. h .; Alderman, f.
Salina: Rothweiler, Canfield, c .; Ogden, l. g .; Stretch, r. g .; Stoltz, I, t .; House, r. t .; Smith, I. e .; Mere- dith, r. e .; Brown, (Capt.), q .; Mack, 1. h .; Vangundy, r. h .; Hobbs, For- ney, f.

TWO SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR $1,000 EACH CAME.
AN EXTRA IMPETUS TO THE DEBT CAMPAIGN THIS WEEK.
Messrs. Huckle and Fraser in West- ern Kansas-About $4,000 to Raise by Oct. 1.
Two $1,000 subscriptions to assist in covering the indebtedness incurred by the recent endowment campaign, have been received at the university office this week. W. S. Upham, of Coffeyville, and Edwin Potter, of Fair- port, were the donors. Mr. Potter has two children, whose names are on the list of Ottawa's alumni. Ernest Thomas Potter, who graduated in. 1897, is now in Wamego, and Mrs. Lillian Potter-Bayles, of the class of 1896, is now at Onaga.
There remains about $4,000 to be raised on the undebtedness which amounted to about $15,000, on Sept. 1. It is expected that this amount will be raised by the end of the month.
The office force is now engaged in collecting the subscriptions due in September. There are over 1200 sep- arate pledges and their collection in- volves much correspondence.
"We have enough bookkeeping to occupy the office force here for some time," remarked President Price one day this week.
Rev. E. L. Huckle, field secretary, spent a few days in Osawatomie this week in the interest of the money- raising campaign. Rev. H. G. Fras- er was in Kansas City and joined by Rev. Huckle. Thursday the latter went to Oberlin; he spent Friday at Phillipsburg and was at Smith Center Saturday and Sunday.
Collections have been very good. Dr. Price desires that all collections be in by October 1st.

THE OTTAWA CAMPUS.
A POST SEASON GAME AND OTTAWA WON IT
OTTAWA'S BASEBALL MACHINE INFLICTED DEFEAT ON LE- LOUP MONDAY.
New Men' Helped the Regulars, and Team Showed Up Well- Score 8-4.
With the aid of a couple of new players, Ottawa's victorious baseball team of last spring got together and easily defeated LeLoup by the score of 8 to 4 last Monday. LeLoup start- ed out like a quarter horse but as soon as Brannon got settled down there was nothing doing for LeLoup any more as far as Brannon's pitch- ing was concerned.
Outside of the first inning when they gathered four hits, no two hits came in the same inning. Although Frank 'Coe was absent Frank Price, Ottawa's regular third baseman, caught a fine game. He made a couple of nice plays on bunts and fouls and caught the only stealer, off second base.
Oscar Coe was easily the star in the field, making two lightning plays on slow grounders.
At bat Francis Rubic was the star, gathering a triple, double and single out of four trips to the plate. He al- so played well in the field.
On the whole the team played well and hit in its old time form, The prospects for a great team next spring are certainly bright.
Thomas, the new second baseman, lined out a three-bagger, stole a base and played his position in great style.
Dr. Harlan, of the college, handled the indicator and his work was ex- ceptionally fine, especially on balls and strikes. He is a thorough stu- dent of the game and will make a competent official for Ottawa in all branches of athletics.

Sophs Tied Finally, But Did Tie 3 Freshmen.
The first act of hostility between the Freshmen asd Sophomore classes occurred at the Academic social Fri- day evening, when a number of the Sophomore boys abducted Elmer Jones, Glen Blair and Ferry Johnson, Freshmen. Blair and Johnson were taken about three miles west of Ot- tawa and left tied, but they soon suc- 'ceeded in releasing themselves, and followed the band which took Jones a few miles east of the university. Jones was left securely tied, and hav- ing been blindfolded during the jour- ney thither he did not know which direction it was to town. However, he was released and piloted back by Johnson and Blair. It was early morning before the boys
reached their . rooms.

HIS SCHOOLING BY TRAVEL.
Mr. Putnam Will Spend a Part of This Year in Germany.
George E. Putnam, Franklin coun- ty's Rhodes scholar, left today for Montreal, from which place he will sail Sunday for England, to enter up- on the second of the three years which comprise his course there. Mr. Putnam graduated with the class of 1907 of Kansas university, and the following fall entered Yale, where he spent a year. Last fall he entered Christs college, Oxford, and while there established for himself a record as a student and an athlete. Christs college is one of the thirty which con- prise historic Oxford university and the institution in which are found the nobility. The two years ahead of him will be spent for the most part in travel. The course requires him to spend only 6 weeks of each of the three terms at Oxford. The remainder is to be spent in travel, the scholar- ship providing him with $1,500 to be used in this line. Mr. Putnam will spend this year in Germany.
HE'S . OFF THE MAP.

THE OTTAWA CAMPUS.
OTTAWA UNIVERSITY'S IMPROVEMENT OUTLOOK
NEW CAMPUS WORK THIS SUM- MER IS ONLY A STARTER.
A Business Man Suggests That Stu- dent Leaders Might Get A New Gym.
Some improvements and repairs were made around the buildings and grounds during the summer. The window-sills throughout University hall were all varnished, the stairs and office floors were waxed, and the chimney, which was demolished by lightening, was replaced. Dr. Chand- ler spent a portion of his vacation re-arranging the library and adding new shelving, and Professor Groner, while in Chicago, bought a consider- able amount of apparatus for the chemical and physical laboratories.
In accord with the plans for im- proving the Campus which were ad- opted by the board of trustees, out- side work has been begun. Seven thousand square feet of concrete walk has just been constructed. New walks lead from University hall across the campus to Oak street, and also from the main building, past Science hall, to Charlton cottage.
With this long stretch of new walk on the campus, the trouble of muddy walks will be eliminated. Heretofore gravel on mother earth has been the nearest approach to a walk found os the campus, except the two board walks leading from Uni- versity hall north, and from Uni- versity hall to Science hall.
It will be noted that a new walk extends from the northwest corner of the main hall to Oak, instead of Cedar, to which point the main gravel walk now leads. The new walk to Oak will make it possible for some senior class, with a desire to do so, to erect a handsome gate at Oak and Ninth streets, which will vie with the useful one' built at Cedar and Ninth by the 1908 class.
