INDIANA HARBOR. Yesterday afternoon Mrs. C P. Burdick had an operation for qulncy performed by Dr. Stubbs of Chicago. The operation was successful and Mrs. Burdick Is getting along nicely. The second entertainment of the citizens lecture course took place last night at the Auditorium before a large and appreciative audience. Dr. A. A. "WlUits, who is 89 years old, and a preacher in the Christian church for fifty years, delivered his well-known lecture "Sunshine." Dr. Wllllts gave up the ministry for the lecture platform fifteen years ago, since which time he. has entertained hundreds of thousands with his delightful lecture. Owen Reed, who recently accepted a position with C. H. Nichols of Chicago, manufacturer of chemicals, was in town yesterday, doing business with the local druggist. Louis Gilmartin of Hammond has leased the Kaufmann hotel building on Michigan avenue, and will open there what is to be known as the Stag hotel. A gentleman from Chicago will be manager, and Mr. Gilmartin expects to be ready for business next "Wednesday or Thursday.

Ol'R TOIVN DRTJGGISTS say that Painkiller sells the best of any medicine they keep; during the hard times of the past year or two. there were none too poor to pay their "quarter" for a bottle of this lndls pensable family medicine. Be sure and get the genuine. 25c, 35c, and 50c, bottles. FOOTBALL NOTES. A son of Thomas W. Lawson is a member of the Harvard freshman squad. Coy and PMlbin back of the Yale line make a hard pair to beat. Football is being played in the west at night by the aid of big electric arc lights. Secret practice by football elevens is now being worked stronger than ever. The Harvard freshmen look to be a good bet in their game with the Yale youngsters. Cornell and Syracuse, who have not met on the gridiron the past six years may get together next year. The Brown university eleven is the only team that plays three of the "Big Six," Yale, Pennsylvania and Harvard. University of Chicago is putting on seventy plays this year, but only fifteen will be retained to be used in the final games. Princeton's attack up to date has been based on last year's lines, the short forward pass and the onslde kick. CiETS SOME OP $15,000,000. From indications. South Bend and adjacent territory will benefit by the $15,000,000 appropriation made by the New York Central for Improvement of the Lake Shore railroad. All told, $85 000,000 will be spent during the coming year on the aggregated New York Central lines and the $15,000,000 repre sents alone the Lake Shore's appor tionment. Locally the money will be spent for new tracks, the four-track system being extended both to the east and west of this city. if nrada by ua will be warmer, "dress ier" a ad give y-ur appearance a su per srfr of distinctiveness.

Bank Here.

JEFFRIES S WILL Four hundred dollars for twelve That sounds like, pret-! minutes' work. ty good pay. doesn't it? Every one In the entire country will have a chance to earn the much-desired collateral at that rate during the next four weeks, but what he will have to do will make him think twice before he takes a chance of taking down the coin. All any of you huskies who tip the beam at about 250 pounds has to do to earn that $400 in twelve minutes is to remain in the same twenty-four-foot ring with Jeffries four rounds. It is not likely that there will be many applicants for the Job, which was announced by II. II. Frazee, the local threatrlcal man, on his return from New York yesterday, where he signed Jeffries up for a seven weeks" tour with Gotch and Dr. Roller, which will start from Washington Nov. 18. Gotoh and Roller will meet the best GOFFROTH W GIVE 3 SHOWS New York, Nov. 6. Not a word as yet from Jim Coffroth, big mogul of the fight promoters, with regards to his offer for the Johnson-Jeffries championship battle. Coffroth Insists, as he did the day he arrived from California, that he hasn't given the thing a thought, and won't until he has cleared up the business of the Ketchel and Johnson moving pictures. Coffroth said yesterday: "It has been proposed to me that I make a three-day fight carnival of the affair if I land the big fight. It ha3 been sug gested, and it isn't a half idea, that In the event of my landing the greatest fight in history that I do as the New Orleans promoters did in the Corbett and Sullivan fight, hold a three-day session and decide three great cham pionships, the feather, light and heavy weights. I have as good ma terial to work on as they did. Think of a three-day show with such stars as Abe Attel, Jem Driscoll, Battling Nelson, Packey McFarland or Lew Powell, and then the big noise, Jeff and Jack. But this is all suggestion and nothing may come of it . "The man who lands in first plaoe with his bid is. the fellow to settle upon how the thing should be played up. I have this to fall back upon, however. Jim Jeffries has said dozens of times that If he was fighting for a percentage that he would fight for me before all others. That, of course, has nothing to do with the present situa tion. He'd be a fool to fight before my club if I offered him 9,000 and the other fellow came across with $10,000. If by chance there should come a hitch in the bidding I feel that both men would lean toward me. "The big fight will come off on July 4 that is almost sure. If some other fellow is luckier than I am I will put on a bout for July 2. I might get Nelson and Powell, or the best lightweights then before the public. "The offers now coming from Seattle are foolish. There is an anti-fight law on the statute books of that section, and they are In much the same position as you are here in New Tork. Whatever little boxing they have has been conducted while the authorities winked. Same In Portland. It would be impossible for them to hold a heavyweight championship fight as It would for the local boys to hold one In Madison Square Garden. "By the way, I may put on Jem Driscoll and Abe Attel on Christmas Day for the featherweight championship. I have closed with Ateel and will with Harvey if it is possible to get Driscoll to come by that time." NOTRE DAME TEAM ON HAND Reaches Ann Arbor for Contest With Wolverines. Ann Arbor. Mich., Nov. 6. Confident of their ability to win from Michigan, and, at the same time handing out tales of crippled players and lessened chances. Coach Longman and a squad of Notre Dame "huskies" arrived in Ann Arbor yesterday afternoon ready for the annual game with Michigan. The squad was taken to ferry field early yesterday afternoon, where Longman sent the players through a light workout. The visitors appear fully as heavy as Michigan, and the sight of the men who will represent Notre Dame today did little toward boosting Wolverine stock. The game is the last ona for Michigan on the home grounds. Michigan is reasonably confident of winning, although neither Captain Allerdice nor the coaches venture predictions as to the size of the score. The coaches announced another shift In lineup. Conklin replacing Smith, at rlglit guard. Borleske has replaced Ranney at left end. SIDNEY HATCH WINS MARATHON Sidney Hatch, the Illinois Athletic club runner, won the Marathon at RIvervieiw rink last night. His time for the 2S miles 3S5 yards was 2:46.

Roller will wrestle finish matches wi,th the best men in the towns the tourists visit. The south will get its first opportunity to see Jen in action on this trip, which promises to be ono of the greatest athletic circuses every put on the road. During tho height of the winter season the show will visit Jacksonville, Fla., and from there will work west, finally winding up at Los Angeles, where Jeff will be given a great reception by his friends. Lou Houseman and Jim Callahan probably will handle the show in Chicago. They also have spoken for several other dates In other cities. No one town will be allowed more than one night of the show. Jack Curley will be advance agent for the organization. DOESN'T BLUE H. H. S. BODY The feeling of the Hammond high school students regarding the attack on the South Bend football team In Hammond Saturday was voiced in resolutions received by Manager DuShane Thursday, says the South Bend News. The resolutions follow: "Be It resolved that we, the student body of the Hammond high school, regret and deplore the outrageous treatment accorded the members of the South Bend football team and their officials by a gang of hoodlums and ruffians in our city. Be it further resolved that, although this affair was in no way connected with the high school, we shall do all in our power to prosecute the offenders and shall see that a repetition of such conduct does not occur in the future. The student body of Hammond high school does further request that these resolutions be given to your dally papers and that they be read before the student body." Several of those who participated In the attack are in jail and word has been received by Manage DuShane to be ready to appear with evidence against them when the caso is called. Local high school students have nothing but words of praise for the sports manlike and gentlemanly conduct which they say was accorded them on the field and in Hammond both prior to and after the game by the students and faculty of the Hammond school. The prompt action being taken by their athletic adversaries in determinedly punishing the perpetrators of the riot, members of the faculty here regard as being only indicative of a spirit which was evident in all dealings which the team had with these gentlemen.

Both the Pittsburg and Detroit club owners will have to come across with salary boosts for their players next year.

Murphy of the Cuba, the busiest little baseball politician in tha game today, will return today from his tour of the east to the interest of Jim Hart for the presidency of the National league. The Cub boss, it is declared in baseball circles, has lined up enough of the magnates to secure the election of his predecessor at the head of the west side club. Chicago, Brooklyn, St, Louis, Cincinnati and New Tork are believed to be against the re-election of Heydler and for Hart. Miner Brown, the Cub pitcher, re turned yesterday from a hunting trip to Townsend, Wis. He told of a thrtl ling escape Mrs. Brown had from death on the hunt. While returning to the camp from Townsend she was attacked by a bear, which jumped up on her horse.
