showed aside to make way for Cleveland
or Louisville in the American league
When questioned about the rumor in
Minneapolis the other day he denied
that any such move was contemplated,
stating that the Minneapolis club held
a contract with the league which had
another year to run. Last year the
Minneapolis club led the Western
league in attendance, making a record
which will no. soon be obliterated
from the minds of the :na-nates, and
it is believed that Saulspaugh netted
about 100000 when the season closed.
After suffering two disastrous years IN
succession the sudden rise in popularity
of the national game at Minneapolis
was a gold mine when supplied with
team which would win a majority or
the games in which it participated,
and the losses suffered during the pre-
ceding two seasons were recouped,
leaving balance of ample proportions
to divide among the stockholders.

Sharkey's aversion to being the UNI

Sharaey, was to appear as a fallen
gladiator. with Jeffries standing over
hint, drawn sword in hand. The act
being too much like the real thing for
Sharkey, he refused to be the fallen
one, and the scene was presented only
after Jeffries consented to take the
risk to let Sharkey appear as the victor
in the combat.
Jack Noffats broken arm has been

4 National Bicvc,e stable.

One of the greatest bicycle stables
in the country is located inside of the
walls of the treasury department In
Washington. it is under the roof OF a
large shed built in the north court OF
the treasury building and has a floor
area of about 10000 square feet.
In ordering the construction of the
shed the only purpose of the secretary
Of the treasury had was to provide add
ed protection for the extensive vaults
under the court where s100,000.000 or
more in silver coin and bullion is stored.
Moisture was finding it's way into these
vaults. and pending authorization by
congress for the recommending of the
vast subterranean area a wooden roof
over the place was decided upon.
To the captain of the watch occurred
the happy thought that If the room
We're raised a few feet higher than the
architects plan contemplated the hun
dreds of bicycles which then cucumber
ed and blockaded the corridors might be
conveniently and safely stored there.
He suggested the change and it was
made.
Now the 1000 employees of the depart
ment, or such of them as may be adict-
ed to the bicycle habit, have stalls for
their wheels each being assigned to- a.
special number. Nearly 500 wheels are
stabbed there from to 3 every day.

FOOTBALL
Coach for Pennsylvania.

Shall it be Woodwork or Murphy, or
both, in charge of the Pennsylvania
football team next year?
That is the question that Is agitating
every Quaker, be he student or profess
Sor or alumnuS.
1t was seen all season that there was
a breach between Coach Woodruff and
Trainer Murphy. Their personal re-
lations continued friendly, but both are
ambitious and both are men of strong
opinions, and their opinions are almost
Numerically opposite. 1t went SO far
one day that Woodruff, through Cap
tain Hare, ordered Murphy off the field
Coach Woodruff did not believe in
Trainer Murphy's training methods, al
though he, Woodruff, was the head of
not only coaching, but training, and
could have seen that his ideas of train
ing were lived up to had he taken the
pains, as he now admits in a recent in
tervieW.
Trainer Murphy does not believe in
Coach Woodruff's coaching, inveighing
with especial stress against guard
back"
Both are leaders in their particular
lines, Woodruff in coaching and Muir
ply in training, Furthermore, Wood

something of Woodruffs speciality,

Snow to Captain Michigan.

Mclean. the half back Of Michigan,
announced last week that he would not
return next year for a post graduate
course, and this left the election for a
football captain nearly unanimous for
Neil Snow of Detroit. Three-quarters
OF the men qualified to vote were pres
ent at the club meeting and the result
was: Snow, 20: Kenna, 8.
Snow Is sophomore literary student
who has played his second season On
the varsity. Before coming to college
he had played three years at end on the
Detroit high school team and one year
on the D. A. c. team. Last year he
was given right end on the A1l-Western
and this year has been honored by
Henry F. Cochems of Harvard by a
place on his All-American substitute
eleven.
He played first base and left field on
the varsity baseball team of SO and was
a point-winner in the high Jump in the
indoor meet last winter.

up the differences between himself and
Fitzsimmons. Julian says he did not

Value of Training Bouts.

Harry Weldon thinks that If train
ing bouts count for anything Corbett
ought to be a favorite over Champion
Jim Jeffries at their coming fight.
Harry saw the two box several times
out at Carson City and says that JEFF
fries appeared as a veritable novice
against the skilled professional, that
Corbett did just as he pleased with
him, and that Jeff was slow and awk-
ward, and that Jim did all the landing.
And that IS just what jeff was then
novice. That was over two years
ago, and Harry knows what the cham
pion has learned since then. He also
knows chat bouts in training quarters

Football in California.

What promises to be a revolution in
intercollegiate athletics is plan now
under consideration by the athletic
committees of both Stanford and Cali
fornia. If the scheme propounded be
adopted there win be an END to the
Thanksgiving football game in San
Francisco and the employment of east
ern coaches for the training of the big
college elevens.
This is no new proposition suddenly
generated in the minds of the profess
sors who form the faculty athletic COM
mittees of the two universities. From
time to time these bodies have met,
discussed the athletic situation and de-
vised methods for the betterment of
college athletics. Several agreements
between Stanford and California have
been in force from the inception of
their dual games and the present set of
rules governing the conduct of college
athletics will expire with the year 1899.
1t is the new contract that viii be en-
tered into ia 1900 that may make sweep
