Tho University of Nebraska football team left for Minneapolis at 6:15 yes terday, evening over .the Burlington. Several hundred students were at tho 'depot to give the team a royal "send-off" and to show their confidence In the eleven by their presence. The Cornhusker team arrived at Minneapolis at eight thirty this morn ing and are Btaylng at the West hotel. 'Just before leaving yesterday Coach Cole j?ut his men thru a stiff signal practice on the gridiron. All the play ers did good work and appeared to be In good physical condition. Word from the Gopher camp Indi cates that Minnesota expects a hard fight Saturday, and "that, they hope-to win the game by a small score.

Minnesota will put a much better team Into the game tomorrow than she had against Ames last Saturday. Two men who were kept out of the Ames game on account of their studies have taken special "exams" and have pull ed thru them with colors flying high. Here is what the Minnesota Dally says about these men: Case and Young will play the tackles In the Nebraska game. Just what this means to the team may hardly be appreciated by' those who have not been watching Its prog ress closely, but the .aspect for next Saturday looks at least fifty per cent better with these two men as stum bling blocks for the Nebraska offense on Minnesota's line. Case is not In tip top shape, but he has been doing considerable training during the last week and is carrying little superfluous flesh at present. George never could be lean, however, and he will have fully 200 pounds to hurl at the Nebraska Interference Sat urday. Young divided honors with KJel lund on the line Saturday and Is a good man on both offense and defense. Case took his "con" exam yesterday morning and the result was announced half an hour later to the delight of all of those who had been watching the Gopher line. The Y. W. C. A." announces that Mrs. Scoville, the wife of the evangelist, will lead the noon meeting today. Mrs. Scoville is an unusually attractive woman, with a winning personality and It will he a "distinct privilege for the girls of the University to hear'her. The meeting will be held at 11:50 n tho Y, W. C. A., room. Miss Ethel Holman, A. B. 1906, is tho new principal of tho Croighton High School for 1907. oGmoitGGmoi WOOTT y Lincoln H.

SHAMBAUGH TELLS OF THE ADVANCE OF THE WEST. Iowa Professor Touches Upon Some Interesting Points of the Early History of This Great Land. ' At chapel yesterday morning, Dr, B. F. Shambaugh of Iowa Unlvorslty, and socrotary of the Iowa State His torical Society, spoko on tho subjoct of "Tho WoBt." His address was full of Interesting material for thought Dr. Shambaugh explained that he used the word "west" with a broador meaning than that usually assigned to it. Ho did not refer, to the terri tory west of tho "Fathor of Waters," and not oven to the territory west of tho Allegheny mountains, but in cluded all America In his subject He deflnod tho west as the placo whore a man Is, and the Bast as tho place where a man came from. The West 'Is the placo where thore is vitality, tho place where men do things. Ho spoke of Columbus as the first westorner and showed how the west has developed new Ideas and a new. philosophy. Ho spoke of tho rapid advances made during revolutionary times; tho growth and enunciation of the- Idea that all men aro croatod equal, the Idea of the written consti tution and government from such a . constitution. Dr. Stambaugh then outlined rapidly the noxt stop in the development of the West. He told how tho pioneers, pushing forward with unheard of rap-. Idly deposed the Indians and con quered for advancing civilization a tremendous area. Ho declared that the external features of this advance brought liberal Ideas and democratic ideals. Men of grit; men of nerve, men of broad and liberal Ideas and tolerant of other's opinions wefe tho products pf the West. Conditions on the frontier were great leveler; It was expected that evoiy man would work whether ho was rich or poor, and if ho would, not the west was no place for him. The frontier fostored a sympathetic attl- tudo. It made men really democratic and, fostered a threefold equality; ' equality before the law, equality In the law, and equality In the making of the' law. True, the west did not first express these principles, but the vitalizing of those ideas came from the West The pioneers were forced to bravely fight the battles of a new country. They succeedod and bad reason to, feel proud of the great commonwealths they had formed. They came to ,feel that their lives w.ere a part of the., history of the community, and as a, ., natural outcome tycal hlstoripalsp. Cifties were formed. The real life of. the American nation Ms not told by 'congressional records', for fit is ' dp read over forty-five states and is ' best expressed by the Hfe.'of.-the .diff erent communities. .
