Coach Stagg's final week of preparation for next Saturday's Chicago-Illinois game. The maroon coach brought out the first buncli of the new plays "tie intends to use against the downstate eleven, and it took him Until long past sundown to drill the mysterious 1908 thrillers into his squad. The Illini are -to be handed a large

assortment of the brand, new creations Stagg has worked out this summer and fall, and the Midway team will get an additional assortment every practice day this week( Stagg announced.

LITTLE BRIGHTER IN DETROIT.

Fans Now Give the Tigers a Fighting Chance to Win the Flag.

Detroit, Oct., 12. Detroit is feeling much better tonight. The tigers' decisive victory in todav's b-""!" i"i

nerved to inspire the fans with new hope and many believe that tue local j team has a fighting chance to land the i world's title. Before the result of the victory had t been flashed to Detroit the fans were in the dumps. The sale of reserved . seat tickets this morning for tomorrow's game was very light. When it became known that the tigers had taken a fall out of the chesty men of Chicago the demand for tickets increased to such an extent that few of them will be left by tomorrow morning. There was more enthusiasm today than Detroiters have shown or have been able to show in any of the previous world's championship engagements. , , The crowds around the .score boards "were "larger and to say that . the fans went wild when the tigers made their rally In the sixth is to put it mildfy. Bettors who Silnday night offered al

most any odds on the cubs to win the title, have loned down considerably, though there still is money in sight at" 2 to 1 on Chicago. It is felt here that everything depends upon tomorrow's game. Should the tigers take this one local fans will figure them as having an even chance for the victory. Their defeat, however, will generally be considered to end all hope.

John ''Fred" Bsail, Jimmy Callahan's right fielder on the Logan Squares, has been - signed by the white sox for the 1909 campaign, the announcement being made at a banquet given "Cal" by the members of his team. Beall has hit

.400 for Callahan this year against some of the best pitching in the semipro circuit, and his ability to hit all kinds of pitchers induced Comiskey to give him a trial next year. The banquet Saturday was entirely a surprise to Callahan, and he was presented with a pair of diamond cuff buttons by the members of his club. Each member of Callahan's team was presented with a handsome solid silver baseball trophy by Oscar Mathiesen at the dinner. ,

MORE COACHES FOR THE ILLINI.

Cook and

McKinley on Hand for the Maroon Game.

Urbana, 111., Oct. 12. Jimmy Cook of the Indianapolis baseball team and Harvey McKinley of Moline, old Illinois players, joined the coaches on Illinois field today and assisted In the work of preparing the eleven for the Chicago game. Every varsity player reported, despite the hard Marquette game Saturday, and this served to lift the depression which resulted as a matter of course from the tie score with the collegians. As was expected, Watson was punished for his loose playing on Saturday by being relegated to the second set of backs, Ritchey taking his place at left half back. Bremer remained at full

back, but must deliver the goods, "Dr." Wright will replace him.

Injury to Hamilton Leaves Keystone

- Position Vacant for Tiro or More Weeks.

With Hamilton, the center, out of the game for two weeks or more the

coaches of the Northwestern university

football team yesterday were trying to find a suitable man for the place from some other position where he could best be spared and who could fill the

hole in the keystone position. Hamilton had his clavicle bone thrown out in the game with the alumni Saturday and it not only compels the coaches to put another man in. the center of the lion of -captain.

IOWA EXPECTS CLEAN SWEEP. Tram is Hoping For Straight Run of Victories This Season.

Iowa City, Iowa, October 12. To win every game on the schedule is the hope of the Iowa student body since the immense score of 92 to 0, piled up Saturday against the Coe eleven on Iowa field. One of the biggest obstacles is Missouri, the team which Iowa plays

the seas, and ended with the introduction of the toastmaster, J. J. Kelley. Mr. Kelley was in his best vein and surprised those who had never heard him with the excellent manner in which he did justice to his position. Mr. Kelley proved himself to be the finest type of an oratorical spellbinder, and often bubled over with good old Irish wit. The first man to be introduced was William H. Fitzgerald, who gave the address of welcome. He was followed by T. E. Knotts, who related events in the pioneer days of Gary. John A. Brennan, who gave a brief history of the Jansen council. Captain H. S. Norton, who spoke on the subject of Gary; C. H. Maloney, who discoursed

on his favorite topic, 'The Ladies

Overconfidence, the germ

brought many a defeat, is the element to be destroyed by the hawkeye coaches this week. Already the players have been given to understand that they face a hard proposition in meeting the Missouri team. Iowa came through the Coe game In fair shape. Captain Kirk, whose kicking and line plunging was a feature of the game, had a badly wrenched knee, but It failed to swell seriously, ad Trainer Tommy O'Brien predicts that the great hawkeye captain can be in ttie scrimmage tomorrow. Hastings, one of the mainstays of the line, was out of the game with a bad knee, but daily "bakings" are expected to put him into shape for next Saturday.

PLACE PREPARES FOR MICHIGAN Aotre Dame Coach Drills His Eleven for a Grueling Battle. Notre Dame, Ind., Oct. 12. The Michigan-varsity game, to be played at Ann Arbor next Saturday, is the chief topic of conversation at Notre Dame at the present time. Coach Place started a epcedy Una practice for the contest this

of Columbus," and Representative John

J. Poulton of Illinois, who gave a masterly address on "Columbus, the Discoverer." Was a Great Address. Probably the greatest address of the evening was that delivered by Captain Norton, who spoke on a subject dear to the hearts of every one present, "Gary." Captain Norton, who is

recognized as a splendid after-dinner

talked, was in his finest vein and

rounds of applause greeted his efforts last night. His memorable speech on

Gary was in part as follows:

"Indelibly written on the pages of

American history is that of the church,

From the time of the discovery of this

continent by the patron of this so

ciety, on down through the centuries

to the assassination of that martyr,

Prost of Denver, who died preaching loyalty to the flag and against anarchy and treason, men of your faith by the

thousands have responded to our com

mon country's call in every crisis, and

gone forth to battle and to die

"We speak of the Puritan fathers

never too often, but some of us are prone to forget Marquette and Joliet,

TjiSalle. Lafavette and John Carroll

of Carrollton. Who would' dare tear out the pages of . the story of that gloomy night in 1813 when, while the British were bombarding old Fort Henry, Francis Keys wrote those undying words: "Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light," and the answer, as the day dawned, from the throats a thousand cavaliers, "The flag is still there.' lis there a man or woman here tonight whose pulse has not quickened, whose blood has not coursed more swiftly at the story of Sheridan's ride and when we hum that air 'March inar Throuerh Georgia,' we re

member with a thrill old Tecumseh and his march to the sea. 'The German of St. Louis saved Missouri to the Union. From my own native state, in "answer to the call of Father Abraham, came Mulligan's fa

mous Irish brigade, and when that son

of the old sod, at the battle of Rock mountain, was being carried from the field, a dying man, he said, 'Lay me down and save the flag."

But what has all this to do with our

city! Just this we may have miles

of paved streets; the best water system in the country; the finest business thoroughfare in Indiana; model homes;

factories belching forth clouds of

smoke by day and pillars of fire by night from a tohusand stacks yet we will not have the ideal American town;

but couple with all. this a community

of lawablding, temperate men, a Chris

tian citizenship then, indeed, can we

proclaim from the house-tops to all

the world Behold:

'A corporation has created this town

it has, through subsidiary compa

nies, provided the first facilities for the future city in the way of water supply, gas, electric lights, sewers and

streets. Everything In its power has been done with a view of making Gary a desirable place of residence. It is building a great mill where thousands of our countrymen will find employment; it invites men to co-operate In a substantial way In the upbuilding of Gary. It has done all of these things, yet it has not desired to dictate, has no inclination to, 'run the town." It is an American institution and recognizes the fact that you, as

Americans, will rule here; good or bad, yours will be the government. "I wonder tonight what some of my ancestors would say if they could hear this talk. I am about to confess to a

Catholic priest, I owe him that much We were pioneers together in this town; there has grown up a friendship between us which I pray may last as long as either of us shall live. I have learned to regard him as I do few men. The Almighty, in his direction of affairs down here, was surely present in the little old office( with His grace and myself, when, the bishop told me he would appoint Father Jansen to this parish. "Your reverence, it was with a selfish, ulterior motive I first talked

houses and homes, but not for churches;

for the physical but not the spiritual. In the beginning some men were satis

fied with conditions, but few women.

They demanded something better, and

realizing that we could not go much

further without women, that this would

be a lonesome Eden without Eve, in looking about for a force to make things better, I met you; I worked you;

I sold you some twenty lots and did

not charge you anything extra for cash.

I really believe, sir, that I made you

think we were doing you a favor whei

we turned over a house for those saint

ly sisters who are giving their lives to the Master's cause. For all this I pray for absolution. "To the members of this order 1 wish to say that if you live up to the tenets of the society you will be a power for

good in Gary. There are some salient i

truths which I wish not only you but every man who has come here to make this town .his , home, might take unto himself. I know that the moral standard Is as high as it is in any place in the land, but a new community always attracts the derelicts and failures of older towns and we have drawn our share of these unfortunates, of blackmailers of confidence men, fake bankers, and there are some walking the streets here, borrowing from young girls, pulling off fake raffles, who certainly- will never be of the best

things on earth until they are laid away In mother earth. We have our share of grumblers and kickers who do nothing themselves for the community and knock those who do. If any of you are guilty, cut "'it out. Don't sit around and damn your town. A town is just as good as the people who damn it. A town is seldom the result of virgin, natural conditions. Where we stand tonight, two short years ago was a dreary, sandy waste, a trackless desert. Today it is the wonder of hte world.

Of course, if the town is not sporty enough for you, you can move; that isn't the town's fault. ' Some are getting too sporty and will have to move

anyway. It Isn t the sports who will make the town, it is that splendid army

of grimy, oily stalwarts, armed with dinner buckets, marching down this broad street tonight, and which, I trust, will continue to march, ever' increasing in number, so long as this town shall stand. "You men of Jansen council, organized not for profit, not with stocks and bonds, not for the control of prices and supply, but with a conscience and a code of ethics for the restraint of your members in the protection of yourselves and the public if you are loyal knight3, true to your order and your church, for If you are true to both you will be true to your country and ou young city there is work for you

to do. Be buildcrs-up, not pullersdown; stand for the right; condemn wrong; both good or bad, stand for Gary always." After the banquet the guests went to the dance hall in the Savage building, where they enjoyed themselves for several hours afterward. Among the out-

of-town guests Hammond had probably

the largest number present. Among

them were Mr. and Mrs. John E. Fitz
