Boiling Rivers.

1t is sure enough. It is not as large as
the Mississippi, indeed it is quite small
but mighty interesting stream for all
that, 1t issues from the sides OF a noun
tain in a thousand tiny rills, more or less,
and Of almost as many colors. These gather
themselves into pools and lakelets on the
mountains side, covering an area of about
200 acres Overlooking their boundaries,
they slowly trickle down the sides Of the
mountain. forming small cliffs, the most
wonderful in the world. From distaEce
one can hardly believe what the eyes;ght re-
veals-White, black, orange, lemon, terra
Gotta, green, blue, red, pink, separte and in
manifold combinations, stand out before
him. It is a hill of painted cliffs on the
siles of tie mountain that rises high above.
And the odd part of it is that each of these
exquisite colors represents a different tenn
perature. Does that startle your credulity.?
Even so it is true.
When through with this beautiful paint
ing process these waters again come to-
gether and then, as if full of mischief like a
pack OF, small boys trying to play hide and
seek, dive down and remain under the
ground for space of two miles and then
flow out from The mouth Of a conyonita as
one of the c,earest, most beautiful green
streams imaginable. Where these waters
emerge from the mountain into the; little
lakes they are hot, boiling hot. During
their dark, underground journey they fall
several hundred feet and also many degrees
in holiness, SO that when they again see
daylight they are much cooler. This then
is Boiling River, an underground NOUN
tain stream OF hot water. :. 8e ,s

and stands 8 feet and inches in height. He
entered college last year as a special student,
entirely ignorant of the first principles of foot
ball, but after short time he began to show
great aptitude for the game. and by the end OF
the season was in Varsity form, and would
have made the first eleven had he not been
disqualified from entering the intercollegiate
on account of study requirements.
He was ranked as the star player of tie '99
freshman team last season. Returning to the
grldlron again this season he has praeticed
steadily and is now in fairly good condition,
though his play has not been characterized
by the snap and energy which marked his
work last season. There Is not speedier

The following Information may be of public
interest concerning the individuals of the
Stanford team:
in her center, T. NJ. Williams best known 10
his friends as "Old Heff' (after Heffelfnger)
Stanford centers her hopes. Williams is a
West Virginian, but not the least bit like the
characteristic Southerner-quick in his move
ments and easily aroused to ire. He is just the
opposite, being deliberate in his speech as in
his actions; good-natured to degree almost
objectionable in football player, but that
doesn't seem in the least to injure Heff's play
ing. Once get him into game and he is a
different man. He goes into play with bull
dog tenacity and his enormous strength
makes light work of any but skilled and
sturdy opponent. Williams has the reputa-
tion of being the best cente on the coast, no
only for his fair, clean, hard playing at GEN.
ter, but for his reliabi in emergencies and
his fine tackling. He is very strongly built
and is terror at pushing his way through
line, as he plays right down on the ground.

THE BLUE AND GOLD.

Captain o. W. Ransome will serve his college
for the fourth year as fullback. Coming from
the Oakland High School in 1892 good foot
ball-player he was at once put on the Varsity,
and has maintained his place continuously,
having lined up already against the cardinal
four times-in three regular intercollegiate
Thanksgiving games and in the freshman
game of 80.
His work has been characterized throughout
his football career with such brilliancy that
when it came to elect a successor to Captain
Sherman Ransome was pre-eminently the man
for the place.
His kicking has been a feature of every game
he has entered. though in the last intereol--
legiate it was not up to standard because of a
serious sprain OF the right knee which he sus-
tanned few days before the game.
He has met With the same misfortune again
this season, and for time grave doubts were
expressed to whether he would be able to
play to- morrow, but despite mis- indisposi tion
he will enter the game and to win, for he says
that II Will be the last chance OF his life, he
graduates next May.
Berkeley's captain has just reached his ma
jority; he stands q feet in his stockings and
will enter the game weighing lS5 pounds

Sterling D. Carr, center, is in his twentiet tn

pounds. He has played football for a number
of years, having captained the Berkeley team

equally we'll.
Last year. which was his freshman year at
the university, he played half in the freshman
intercollegiate match and later substitute in
the same position on the Varsity. His work
on the Berkeley gridiron has always been
ch aracterized by remarkable amount of
dash and energy. 1t was these qualities which
won for him the position OF center on this
years team, together with his extraordinary
development OF neck and shoulder muscles.
For time much doubt was expressed as to
whether Carr would make the team, but his
development was rapid and his knowledge
of the game grew fast .hat he beat out in
the race for the place four other men, each of
