CAN'T FIND THE ENDS.
Football TaneIe More UnsoIvabIe Than
Ever.

New York, Feb. 5.-A chaotic con-
dition confronted the football experts
session here today. when they resumed
their task of remodeling the rules to
make it safer and saner.
A whole days labor served appar-
emily but to increase the confusion. the
multiplicity Of ideas and their diver
sity proving stumbling block in the
way of immo 1iate progress. At the
same time, the labor of yesterday was
found not to be wasted and there was
promise of light ahead through the
gradual process of elimination which
went on throughout today's session.
1t is believe that no positive action
will result from the present session,
but that with the tentative plan of
changes now being mapped out, in
hand, the rule makers will take time
to consult with the college authorities
in their various sections. Out of these
conferences is expected to come an
other meeting in March for definite
action.

Cooley has signed Bakule. fast
former st. Mary's college pitcher who
has been fiinging semiprofessional ball
for two or three years. Bakule Is a pig
fellow and has lots of steam. He is d
Southpaw and has a lot of friends To-
cally who would like to see him in a
Cooley uniform. They predict that he
will make good.
Roy Arnold has written Cooley that
he will not play baseball again. Arnold

that it is useless for him to sign con-
tract. He is at Superior, Wis.
The four teams which look best in
the Western league today, according 0
the strength of the teams on paper are
Rourke's Colts, Izzy's Witches. Hol-
Rourke has a better club than the To-
Gals outside the pitching staff, but
there we have it on them. Holland
has a bunch of money to spend getting
a team and Ivy will have a good team
before the season is well under way.
Exhibition games have been SEIZED:
uled with the Detroit Tigers, the Chi
cago SoX, the st. Louis Browns, the St
Paul American association team and
the Kansas City team of the American
association. The first game will be on
March &c or 81 with the st. Louis or

No trouble is anticipated and it is eX-

Of the players may hold out awhile but
Cooley will not worry. Playing ball
beats hard work.

One Jack Henderson, who an
nounces himself as Holy Terror
from Terrorsville, came riding into
the Gulch Sunday morning with a
whole arsena. strapped around him,
and announced his determination to
shoot up the town and a few dozen
people with it. AS the city marshal
was sick abed, we were notified of
Jacks arrival and enterprising inten-
tions. He was flourishing two guns
when we bored in on him. and the
way he climbed down the tree was
laughable to see. The man hadn't the
sand of COYOTE. When given half
an hour to get out of town he didn't
take 10 minutes. There was a day
when the Terror was a good man to
let alone, but civilization has crept in
and his occupation has departed.
