SPORTING GOSSIP

Backed up with the record made by
the Minnesota team in 1900 and 1901,
several football critics are now de-
nouncing the writer's who turned
upon Dr. Williams when Minnesota
went down before Nebraska Saturday
afternoon.
What Minnesota did in the past is
a matter of the past. One can find
pleasure in looking up the 1900 sea-
sons record, but the pleasure is for
gotten when the game with Nebraska
Saturday is recalled t5- e
Coach Williams may have trained
his men to championship form in the
past, but up to date he shas failed to
make good this season.
One Of Williams supporters points
out that the season has not begun.
Having promised thesfootbaH enthusi-
asts that Nebraska would furnish
Minnesota with the hardest practice
this season. it was only expected that
this writer would not consider the
Minnesota Nebraska affair Saturday a
game. A few did, however.
The season may not, be on, but other
teams are trained up near to their real
FORM The GopherS are not and have
not been at any time since starting the
fall practice.
Williams may be a 'devel- headed,
experienced football coach" but the
ones who believe him to be an able
coach should go on aid point out how
he has been using UP the time since
the 1902 practice started.
Coach Williams may turn now and
whip the Gophers into line. The ma
room and gold may even defeat Wis
consin Every Minnesota supporter
would be glad to see this happen. This
column, when it happens, will give
Williams credit for the work He may
be one of the greatest coaches in the
country, but he must show his worth.
The supporters of the coach advise
the critics to allow the man to go on
| with his work unhindered and unhan-
| pered AS far as this column is con-
cerned he will have the chance. If he
makes good he will be given his full
credit. If he fails will these supporters
place the blame where it will belong?

eopHERs OUT FOR PRACTICE.
Maroon and Gold Players Preparing
for Game With knipe's Men.

Somewhat discouraged by their de-
feat at the hands of Nebraska, but
still hopeful of making good in the
battles which are to follow, the Co
piers resumed practice on Northrop
field yesterday afternoon. Next Sat
urday Coach Williams men will meet
the Iowans at Iowa City and are due
to have another hard battle.
Although the Minnesotans were
given their fiercest fight of the season,
they emerged from the battle in COM
paratiyely good shape. Valkenburg
received an ugly kick in a scrimmage
which resulted in two Of his ribs be-
ing broken, but outside of this casual
ty the Gophers pulled out lucky.
Others suffered from minor injuries,
but will be in shape for Saturdays

DR.. Mayhem, the Nebraska team
physician, who stated after the game
Saturday that the Minnesota men had
been overturned, hit close to the
mark. Many agree with DR.. Mayhem
Dr. Williams knew that the Cornhusk
ers would come ready to put up the
hardest kind of a fight, and his pupils
were of the same mind. All were aware
that only the most vigorous Kind of
practice would be necessary Whether
the men overdid themselves, is a ques-

CAREER OF THE LATE BOSS"
ALEXANDER r, SHEPHERD
Was a Terror to the Bandits of Mexi-
CO, Who Respected Him for His
co, WIG
COURAGE,

Courage.
When the late Alexander r. Shop
herd, known in Washington circles as
BOSS Shepherd, first purchased his
plantation at Batopilas, Mexico, it was
225 miles from the nearest railroad, at
Chihuahua. LaWlesS bands wandered
throughout the surrounding country.
Accordingly, the plantation was forth
fed, and small army was carefully
trained as an escort for the mail stage
between BatopilaS and Chihuahua, and
to guard the silver trains. Sometimes
more than 100000 worth OF the metal
was carried at one time by mule back
to Chihuahua to be minted there into
Mexican dollars, or deposited as bull
lion for an equivalent in bank notes.
Naturally, the presence of so much
treasure in their midst invited attack
from the lawless bands which prowl
through these mountains. At last one
of the mule trains was attacked, the
stolen. Shepherd, in a rage, spent
money like water in experimenting the
criminals. His offers of extravagant
rewards at last brought about the cap
ture of the bandits, and they were es-
corted by some Mexican soldiery to
the governor of the province for trial.
A few days later word came to the
Shepherd hacienda that the robbers
had attempted to escape on the way,
and had all been shot deNd.
At one time it was said that the bo-
nanza king had been responsible for
this summary revenge, but, at any rate
his silver trains were afterward I'M
molested. The high esteem with which
he was held, even by the robbers, who
had thus been signally punished, was
shown the time he was captured by
one of their band. He was going to
chihuahua from Batopilas, when he
was surprised by five highwaymen.
They had bounced down on him when
he had happened to fall behind his
guard. He threw up his hands, kept
them up, and went with the brigands
to a cave. There they took all the
money he had on his person, feasted
him with touching" hospitality
called him the 'Whitefaced Silver
King" and then babe him a merry
good bye-Argonaut

less, that the team was put through
some lively work preceding the Ne
braska game. No time was lost in the
practice during the afternoons. The
men went at it, hammer and tongs,
working like beavers all the time, and
it is not at all improbable that several
of the players exerted themselves to
such degree as to weaken them long
before they faced the Cornhuskers.
Other excuses may be offered, but.
the fact remains that the Gophers did
not play up to their usual form. The
speed shown in former contests was
not there. Apparently the men were
not themselves and the rooters are
confident that in the games to follow
better form will be shown.

POLAR BEAR GETS GOOSE
ON BOARD OF A SHIP
His Mate VainIy Punished to Attract
Him Back to His Case-Success by

His Mate VainIy Punished to Attract
Him Back to His case-Success by
Strategy.
NEW YORK, Oct. 20-Two polar
bears were passengers on the steam
ship Cymric, of the White Star line,
which has arrived here. One was
named Pinky and the other Panky.
The latter wanted to see New YORK
and have the reporters ask him as to
his impressions of America. He at
tempted to escape, succeeded, and for
a time gave his keepers lively time
to get him back into his cage again.
PanlSy was to be taken to an animal
exhibition up town, and it was while
he was being transferred to another
cage that he took the liberty to look
over the land Of the free. He went to
the forecastle, and there quietly re-
posed until he was forced back into
the cage
According to the press representa-
tive of the exhibition, the men on the
ship had to send for the owner and
trainer of the animals. He brought
the cage containing Pinky up near the
forecastle and prodded innocent Pinky
with sticks until she hoWled with pain
and anger.
1t was thought that Pinkys cries
would bring Panky back, but they did
not. Large iron screens, shaped like q
tennis racket, were brought into play,
and the trainer and three of his men
approached the escaped bear, which
was very ferocious. He sprang at
them repeatedly, but always landed
against the screens. Once, according
to the press agent, he attempted sui
eide by trying to get out Of one of the
port holes, which was foot in dame
ter; the bear weighed 400 pounds.
The owner hit upon a plan which
proved successful in getting the bear
back into it's cage. He had a lot OF
planking brought and made a runway
at the end Of which the cage was sit
uated. The three men went in and
prodded him, and the trainer fired -four
shots, exploding four blank cartridges
The bear with a bound jumped down
from the bunk and ran along the run
way and into it's cage. Both the cage
and incident were closed.
