m THE WORLD OF SPORTS.
MAINE GRIDlRON GOSSIP.

Next Saturdays game, BOWdoin VS..
T. IF NJ. at Brunswick, will be the last
game and the decisive game of the
year.
SATURDAYS game at Lewiston was the
oniy game of III. year in Maine III
which fun - minute halves have been
played.
1t speaks well for the condition OF the
Eowdoin players this fall that in n"ith-
er the game with Colby nor that with
Bates was a single change made in the
lineup during the game.
Colby hopes 10 have Coach Bank
hart back again next year. inc boys
are perfpc,ly satisfied with his work.
though they have won bur one Of the
six Maine games played under his
coaching.
Portland expects to win next Satur-
day-s game with Bangor wiIhou, great
difficulty and for the following Satnr-
day. Nove,nbsr %. Portland has game
arranged with Hebron to settle the
preparatory school championship.
The complaint is made at Bangor
that the boys show little interest in the
coming game at Portland ard have not
been turning out for practice. Per
hcps last Saturdays victor: over
Bucksport will give the eleven d little
more courage and confidence.
Their. was an amusing confusion Of
rd.nes i'll the lineup of the Colby
eleven last Saturday as published in
one Maine paper. The names Gibbs.
Bean. Jordon and Thayer We're given
" here Tidd. Dean. Sherburne and
Dwyer should have appeared. 1t must
have been case of a buzZing telephone
wire.
Although defeated at Orono, the
Colby men get lot Of satisfaction out
of the fact that Maine could not cross
their goal line and that twice Colby
held Milne for downs inside the 10
yarG line. The points which won the
game for Maine We're scored by goals
from placement. and while these are as
good to win by as any other method
they are the results of the individual
of the whole eleven.
The forward pass, in which Bates got
SO proficient last fall. proved the cause
Of its downfall this year. In both the
L. OF NJ. and Bowdoin games it was an
intercepted forward pass which gave
Bates opponents their only touch
downs. Last Saturday Bates tried
this play three times. Once Files Of
BoWdoin intercepted it for a run of SO
yards: once Lee of Bowdoin intercept
ed it for a run Of 20 yards, and once ii
worked Tor a good gain.
Bowdoi.l has won two games and lost
none; L. of NJ. has won one and tied
one; Colby has won one and lost two:
Bates has tied one and lost two. That
is the Maine college standing to date.
Colby and Bates are out of it as far as
any championship hOnors go, and Bow
dOin and l.. Cf NJ. will struggle for the
1881 championship on Whittier field.
Brunswick. next Saturday afternoon.
II the day is fair no doubt 5000 or
more people will be present and they
VIII certainly get their moneys worth.

the giant Schumacher 10 advance the
ballo They probably had good rea-
sons, but the spectator ut last Satur-
days game could not help wonder ing

whosp two goals from placement won
the Ccl5y game. II was pretty Work
and is what Bearce gave promise OF
when he played on Edward Little. He
tried this play three times in the game
with Bates and only missed by very
narrow margins. No doubt he is i'm
proving under good coaching and Bow
doin will be lucky indeed next Satur-
day if he does not repeat his good work
-: last Saturday, Scoring by goals
from placement is getting more com
mon now with the big teams. but mas
been little tried in Mainc. About the
only earlier instance of it in the his
tory Of Maine college football occurred
in the Bowdoin-P -Pates game of 1S9e
wnen Harry Bacon. the great BoWdoin
quarterback of that year, kicked two
such goals for his eleven.
The individual star Of last Saturday s
game AT Lewiston was Eddie Files
Bovdoin'S right halfback. Hitherto
he has figured Chiefly in baseball and
last spring was captain Of EowdOin' s
championship nine. hut this fall he de
cided to trS his luck n football. As a
halfhack he has been rated a fair play
er. showing his ineXperionce at times,
but always full of grit and Willingness
to work Last Saturday he earned 4
place i'll the athletic hall of fame, not
only by his brilliant 50 yard run which
brought BowdOin its touchdown, but
later by his plunges Of 10 and j. yards
straight through the Bates line. His
jersey was torn off. but he would not
stop for a new one. During most of
the game he had to do more than his;
share of work behind the line as
Phipps, the little lett haifhack. was 50

Phipps ran 10 yards toward his own

on q punt. and several times when
hacking up the line he fell down before
reaching the line.

three days of negotiating with Mama

fifth was determined he would sign
Jake. and he accomplished the task af-
ter several conferences in the office of
President Ban Johnson of the Ameri-

League. and it is understood Griffith
made him a liberal offer
Stahl has been out of league baseball
for year. but has played with the

him to help the Highlanders in their

THE INDIAN
STATESMEN
FOR LAST TINE
Gather In Their Legislature
In Indian Territory
Most Novel Law Making
Body In Country History

Muskogee, 1. T., Sept. 3.-Before
the present month has passed into
history there will have been COM
plcted the last session of one of the
most novel and interesting legislative
bodies this country has ever known.
Shorn of its power of making and
passing laws to govern a free nation,
the Chickasaw legislature, in its last
meeting, is reduced to the position
of asking as aims from the Great
White Father the things that the red
men consider just. The Indian leg
isIators will memorable congress as
to what disposition should be made
of the segregated lands and the tribal
funds in the possession of the inter-
ior department. The body can only
make recommendations however, and
il remains to be seen whether its re-
quests will be considered by the ma
tional congress.
All of the Chickasaw Indians are
owners of much land, and ON their
shoulders will fall much of the bur-
den of taxation for the support of the
government. The federal government
has n considerable amount of money
obtained from the sale of townsites
and these funds the Indians desire to
have dcvided, to be used in improv-
ing their lands and realty holdings.
