that | was greatly surprised at the
class of Rugby football that was
shown in Saturdays game. The
progress in mastering the game In
this part of the country which has
been made In the last year, Is GER
tGinly astonishing. ] expected to see
a good contest. but | did not expect
to see the game of Rugby played with
such skill as was evinced by the
players of this State.
IL must confess that from past
knowledge and with what little !
saw of the two teams, ] somewhat
loxpected to see Stanford win the
game. However. as the contest clearly
proved, the team which was best
versed In the game and which was
animated by the best spirit secured
Il well-earncd victory. In point OF
physique. | believe that the Stanford
men had shade the advantage. But
In point of Rugby skill, there was
no doubt as to Caliiornia's superior
ity." Referee Ienkinson concluded
by inviting the California men to
TRY conclusions at some future time
with the Rugbyites of British Co
lumbia. and assured the Californians
that II he ofiiciatcd at such a con-
test they would always, get square
deal.
Great enthusiasm was manifested
at the rally by the students. Coach
Jimmie" Schaeffer spoke of the VIC
tory as being due, not to any one
man or set of men, but to the team
working as an orgpnzed whole. He
paid tribute to Mother" Howe, the
assistant coach, saying that the CAL
ifornians wanted him back next
year. He was cheered by the stud
tents as he spoke of Howe and his
possible return to California;
Ralph Merritt, graduate manager
lat the University, spoke of the mean
ing of the victory to California, ana
tralled attention to the fact that
Cal Haifey, former Varsity cap
tain, for the first time had the priv
ilege Of playing on winning team
against Stanford in saturdays game.
|'l am glad that Haffey, after all
these years, has at last had an OPP
portunity to represent California on
Ia winning team" said Merritt.
Trainer Walter Christie spoke, and
| Mother" Howe bade goodbye to
the California supporters.
| The members of tho winning team
were one by one persuaded to speak
before the enthusiastic rooters. Cap
tain Cert said that this was his last
time at football, but that he thought
II good ending. He paid tribute
to- the work of Coaches Schaeffer and
Howe, and declared that Crawford
had been allowed to play in the game
and that California had beaten the
best team Stanford could put up.
Yell Leader lIartigan was compll-
mented by the Varsity captain upon
the way In which the California
rooters had cheercd the team on to
victory. The other members of tho
tcam made short speeches, although

the California team, had to be cap,

California are murmuring over the
probability that mother" Howe may
not return to coach the football team
of the university next season; says
the Examiner.
Last week Howe informed Grad
uate-Manager Ralph Merritt that he
had been made n good offer to coach
St. Mary's College next season and
stated that he would return to the
University of California IL the cxecu-
tive committee would pay him ST.
500 for the season. Merritt told him
that the executive committee would
pass on the matter at its meeting
which IL tn be held soon, and added
that the amount asked for was more
than the University of California had
ever paid To an assistant coach.
Howe evidently took Merritt's re-
mark AS indicating that his PROPOSE
ton would be rejected, and when the
matter leaked out the students jump
ed to the conclusion that Howe was
not to be re-engaged.
The student body, having tasted
victory once, Is eager to keep up the
winning streak, and the undergrad,
yates believe that the presence OF
Howe In the field next year will hell
materially to bring this about.

Supreme Court Decision on Scavenger
Tax Touches Hundreds of
Tracts in Omaha.

BY a decision Friday the supreme court
gave a ruling in a scavenger tax sale suit
which has an important bearing on hun.
dreds OF cases in Douglas county. The de.
cision of the court was that where the
original owner offered to redeem before
confirmation he must offer the full taxes
and that the offer of the price the property
| sold for, is not sufficient.
The test case was that of Rosentha

PALERMO. May 2S.-Every criminal in
Sicily who evades capture by the police is
called a brigand, but as ~brigandage is sup
posed to have been stamped out by the
Italian government, the term brigand has
been supplanted by a new word, '1ati-
tAnte," or hider. AS a matter of fact,
however, brigandagA still exists in Sicily,
weakened and diminished, but not over
come and so long as the Malta rules 1. the
cities and towns ~brigandge will continue
TO flourish over the country Nor
could II be otherwise, as the Malta and
-brigandage are closely connected by a
bond of common interest. In years gone
by the Sicilian brigands held up the car
riages Of the rich, took prisoners and held
them for ransom, protected the weak and
oppressed the rich and powerful mobiles.
Today the classical type of brigand has
disappeared and the present outlaws are
no longer highwaymen, but common Grim
inals, who live in hiding and successfully
evade capture by making themselves use
full to certain great land owners, who in
return protect them from the police. Now
and again there is an isolated attempt at
a return to the old traditions of brigandage
and a man Of an adventurous life. disap-

five years there were two famous Siciliar
brigands whose names became household

and is supposed TO be safe in America
the other, Giuseppe Sslamone, has faller
