the crowd around the campus had

team could possibly be, with the ex-
'ception Of O'Brien. Like Michigan,
Minnesota will have no excuses to of
fer in case of defeat.
Michigan spent the day quietly at
Lake Minnetonka. The men were
given their last signal drill, and list
ened for an hour while Coach Yost
outlined the details Of the plan Of at
tack. The wolverines are more than
confident, especially the new players.
Yesterday they voiced the following
opinions in regard to the outcome Of
the game:
Captain Redeem, of Michigan-Minne
sofa will have to be much stronger than
Wisconsin was last year at this time to
defeat us. All this talk about O'Brien
being the whole show Is a mistake. We
believe that his presence in the game
would be a great aid to the Minnesota
eleven, but we feel that it will take eleven
men to beat and not one. We would
rather play the Minnesota team with
O'Brten In the game as we want the best
team to win. Our men are all In excel
lent shape and ready for the struggle of
their lives.

Gregory, Michigan Center-It will GER
tainly be the greatest battle ever waged
on a western gridiron. We are strong in
both offense and defense and If Mime

fact that she is on her own grounds.
Betting Favors Michigan.
/ The betting on the game continues
to favor Michigan. The bets offered
range from even money to 10 to n.
ALL bets at 10 to or better are
snapped up eagerly by Minnesota men

A sensation was created in a down
town cigar store where a number of
bets were posted yesterday after
noon. "A former Minnesota man, now
in North Dakota, produced large
roll of United States currency, and
announced that he wanted the Min
nesota end OF every Michigan bet on
the board. After getting something
like $1,000 up, he left declaring that
there were too many pikers around

ing the play of teams against which
Wisconsin will go this year. He has
seen Chicago play twice this season
and picked wisconsin to win this af-
.ternoon. He also thought that North
western would win against Illinois.
"As the scores have shown up to
date" he said, Chicago has been
greatly overrated and Northwestern
find after this day is over that Chi
cago and Northwestern have been
more misjudged than even their
scores indicate.
Wisconsin should win with a good
margin over Chicago this afternoon,
altho it will be a good game which I
am sorry to have to miss. Chicago
has it's old men but its style Of play
is not that calculated to land many
games for Stage this season. McCor-
mack is man you will have to look
out for. If he can overcome that
dead Northwestern spirit he will have

can't play much football under Wood
rufus coaching and Northwestern can
beat, or should beat, Illinois easily
this afternoon.
Art Curtis has his work cut out for
him this year. He is doing nicely
fine, in fact-but with Chicago, Michi-
gan, Northwestern and Minnesota to
meet in one season Wisconsin is fac
ing mighty hard schedule. We
would be very glad to see that North
western game off our schedule. Wis.
consin will win 1t all right, but COM
ing Just as it does, five days before
another big game, 1t puts Wisconsin
in a bad boat.
II have no guess to make on the
Minnesot Michigan game this after
noon, but am inclined to regard 1t as
an even break.

bility Of defeat.
Minnesota is really in the more
healthy frame Of mind for the game
which begins on Northrop field at 2: 5
p. m. Her men expect to win. In
fact, they feel that If every man plays
up to his limit, there will be as little
possibility of losing as there ever is
in championship game. Yet there
is no overconfdecne, and a temporary
setback will not put the men in the
air, as it may possibly with Michigan.

been made by DR.. Williams, 1t may

Minnesota and Michigan met this
afternoon on Northrop field under per-
feet weather conditions. The crowd
was the largest ever assembled at a
game in the northwest. Fully 10000
persons crowded the grand stand and
bleacher seats, and before the game
started the gridiron was surrounded
by a living wall.
The Minnesota team was weakened
on account of the absence of O'Brien
and Burdick, but otherwise the go
piers were in good condition. Michi-

three pounds to the man. The lineup:

Will Be Shot This Week for Killing

Dawson, H., May 21.-AccOrding to
a letter received from Frank Smith,
of this city, soldier in the United
States army in the Philippines. Ros-
coe Cox, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Cox, of Sherman, this county, is to be
shot some time this week for the al
legged killing OF an officer while on duty
with the Twenty-ninth United States
infantry. Mea ger details are given in
the letter, which was written some
time ago and had been delayed in
transmission.
According to the letter Cox deserted
and was captured on AN English sail
ing vessel. Following his arrest and
capture the letter says that he killed
United States officer and for the deed
is to be shot. Relatives of the young
man are inclined to disbelieve the
story. Cox enlisted at the local recruit
ing station July 24, 1901, and was as
signed to the Twenty-ninth infantry,
which was then stationed at Fort
