NEBRASKANS CONFIDENT.
Cornhuskers Have Borrowed M. U.'s "Beat Kansas" Slogan.
Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 2. (Special.)
With a thousand "We Must Beat Kansas" buttons worn on the campus with Coach "King"
Cole and half a dozen assistants working daily with varsity and serubs, Nebraska is this week making final preparations for the big struggle with Kansas next Saturday.
Cole is doing everything that his ingenuity and that of his assistants can devise to put the team in first class shape for the Jayhawker contest. Not content that his regulars should remain inactive last Saturday, the Nebraska coach assembled them on the field immediately after the Doane game had been finished and ran them through a half hour's fast signal practice. The men who played in the game had reserved their efforts, under orders of Cole, and came out of the contest unhurt. After the practice Cole sent his men for the usual shower and then met them at the training table and gave the usual blackboard lecture.
Yesterday three hours were aoe sqi puu pipu aq no quads hind closed gates. All last week practice was secret and it will be so maintained for the rest of the week. The Nebraska coaches will run no risk of letting their plays H sausuu uq jo sau uq o qa is realized that the chance of the Comhuskers in the contest Saturday depends in large part on the quick execution of offensive measures and it is essential that the tricks so far held under cover remain secret till they are sprung against the men Coach Kennedy has trained.

PROF. DAVIS IN CHAPEL.
An interesting experiment is being made this evening in Kansas City by Prof. Morse, of the violin department. A music house desires to prove to the public that the mechanical piano can play accompaniments as well as solos and accordingly they have hired Prof. Morse to play the Paganini concerto, accompanied by the piano player. Prof. Morse spends several days each week in Kansas City, giving lessons and that he is making good is proved by the fact that the music houses over the city are sending him pupils and have pronounced him the best in the city.

UNIVERSITY NOW PAYS PHYSICIAN
THIS ENTITLES STUDENTS TO FREE CONSULTATION.
Measure Taken to Safeguard Students' Health—Hospital Association Will Continue.
By vote of the Board of Regents at their meeting last week, the University assumed all but a small part of the salary of the University physician, and from this time most of the funds of the University Hospital association will go to furnish supplies, nursing, etc., for its members and to maintain the infirmary. In return, the Hospital association has arranged to furnish care in the infirmary to any student needing it, at the cost of the services rendered.
The Board also increased the power of the University health committee, as the authorities have recognized for some time the need of maintaining a more rigid inspection of contagious diseases and the condition in regard to the health among the student body.
Under the new arrangement, every student in the University will be entitled to free consultation with the University physician. In this way the duties of Dr. Chambers, the University physician, have been greatly enlarged. He will secure all the possible information of contagious diseases among the students, and of the hygienic conditions which affect their health, and will keep the chairman of the health committee informed concerning them. He will maintain office hours in the gymnasium as heretofore, and any student may consult him there during office hours. The student will be given advice and prescriptions without charge; but if the student is ill at home or at the infirmary he will employ a physician in the usual way, as free service can not be furnished to any who are not members of the Hospital association.
Dr. Crumbine, chairman of the State Board of Health, has appointed the members of the University health committee. They are Professors Hoad, Bailey, Billings, Sudler, and Dr. Chambers. They will be empowered to remove any student who is sick under improper conditions, to the infirmary.The student will choose his physician and pay for his services, if he is not a member of the Hospital association. The work of the Hospital association will continue as before, with free services and free medicine to its members.
