Tho mob spirit among tho cIohboh at Nobrnska is rapidly boing killed off and thoro la cnuso for groat rejoicing among tho Htudonts and mombei-H of tho faculty ovor that fact. Throo yoarB ago tho BophomoroB woro so forocious in tholr attack on tho freshmen mooting that they do Btroyod proporty. At that tlmo tho hand of tho chancellor wuh sot down on the raah Bocond-yenr men In a jiiBtillablo manner, and tho mob spirit of tho BtudontB wuh dealt a killing blow. Tho noxt year and laHt fajl tho sophomores were mild In their atti tudo toward tho froshmon meetings. Now, thiB fall tho unruly Bphit which prompts the older classmen to at tempt to "make llfo iniBoroble for tho froBhleB" has about died out. Today thoro probably will bo no demonstra tion whatovor around tho mooting. If thoro is the leaders in the movement ought to bo doalt with severely.

It ought to bo crushed, and tho man who Is rid ding Nobraska of it has the support of tho entire faculty and of a great majority of tho students in his task. FORE8TRY MEN TO GO LOGGING. Will Take Practical Course In Western Ranges. Five young huskies, composing the class in timber mensuration of tho forestry department of tho University or Washington left tho roaring city yesterday and streaked' it for the tall uncut, where they will study nature, first-hand. The party will spend ten days at Montesano watching the log glng operations at the camp of the Chehalis Timber Company. Luckily no camping is necessary, as the class will live with the logging crew. There the students will study the rate of growth, and the yield ot timber, giv ing, special attention to tho rod fir. The best methods of cutting and han dling tho timber will also bo observed, though this is of secondary Import ance. The site of operations Is ono of the most inaccessible that could be found. Care was taken to have con ditions as near as possible like those the students will havo to face when they leave college and go into the gov eramentuervice. i" " --im - - , - - ., . t, . INDIANS' GREAT ELEVEN FACT8 ABOUT CARLI8LE8, WHO MEET NEBRASKA. PLAY PENNSYLVANIA SATURDAY Quakers Working Hard to Wipe Out Defeat of Previous Year and Much Interest Centers In the Contest. When the Pennsylvania football team lines up against tho Carlisle In-! dlons Saturday at Philadelphia tho Quakers will moot a team which has In the laHt two nicotlngH overwhelmed and humiliated them. , Coach Warner and his men, proud i of having beaten Pennsylvania flvo out of nine games, are now putting the finishing strokes to their preparations and tho Indian team that takes the Hold Saturday will represent tho best material, an eleven trained as are few teams. In loot hall the Indian team has been a veritable rod porll for tho last decade. Tholr exploits slnco 1899 have been little short of morvoloiiB and there is not a team on their schedule but who.! regards tho Indian game as ono of the. hardest. When Carlisle started to play foot ball, fourteen years ago, tho venture was regarded as a Joke. Tho eleven played four games the first year and won only one, defeating tho Harris- burg high school ond losing to the nothing ne pounds home with as much Navy, Franklin and Marshall, and thedcterminntIon as tho Imperative mas Columbus athletic club. I tery of the rudiments. Instead of try Redskins Attract Attention. ' Ing to inltiote the green material into The next year tho record was a little j a knowlpdge of trick playB ho sets his better, as In a schedule of eight games j Payers to work learning how to Hvo resulted in victories, and by ploy- tackle, fall on the ball, hold it after lng a good game against Yale, which ended 18 to 0. the redskins began to attract attention from tho football world. Progress continued steadily till in 1890, when the. Indians won their first victory of importance, downing Dick inson 28 to G. The team of that year played Princeton, Yale, Harvard and Pennsylvania, scored on tho Klls and Tigers and held Harvard to a scant 4 to 0 victory. The Quakers' 21 to 0 score was tho only t'ount of any size mode by opponents. In 1890 "Pop" Warner assumed chargo or tho football education of the men of tho forest, and from that time on tnoy havo boon rated as among the greotest teams In the history of the gioat college game. Tho first year of Warner's adminis tration saw tho red and gold wavo in Everything I do I do fast can't loaf for freight. Some new shades and shapes showed up In the New York markets, $5.00 and $6.00 hats. I had then copied in the famous Budd $2.50 grade, and rushed through by"express. New ideas not to me in a hurrv S O. 2-50- Why pay more? Both victory for the first time over a mem ber or the big four, and -Pennsylvania waB the victim, 16 to 5. Harvard and Princeton" beat tho olovon that year, but they had to Bhow their best to do it. Two Poor Seasons. The 1900 team went back a little and lost by big Bcoros to Yale, Har vard and Pennsylvania. "Nineteen hundred and ono was, oIbo a bad yeur and tho team lost seven gamoB, won four, and tied ono. Cornell, Harvard, and Michigan all took tho measure of the fleet Indians. But tho warriors camo back in 1902, and, though losing to Harvard, had tho satisfaction of .boating ' Pennsylvania. In 1903 tho Indians boat everybody except . Princeton and Harvard, and fell only one point behind the latter. Pennsylvania, Swarthmore and North western were included among tho vic tims. Penn's great eleven v of 1904 succeeded in walloping the redskins, by eighteen points and Harvard also beat thorn, but no other team was equal to the task. Tho same teams again turned the trick in 1905. Since that time tho Indians have lost only two games. Harvard beat thorn 5 to 0 In 190G and Princeton de feated thorn 16 to 0 last year, but Syracuse, Michigan and Pennsylvania twice, and Harvard, Minnesota and Chicago once have fallen victims in that period to the skill of tho original owners of tho land. 8ad Times for Pennsy. Franklin field has Been nothing sad der in the last two yoars than tho way Carlisle romped over tho red and blue olovens, winning by scores of 24 to 6 and 2G to G. Numbered among the men who as sisted In winning these gridiron tri umphs for the redmen are names fa miliar wherever football is known, for It has been characteristic of the In dians that they have not hesitated to travel any distance over the country to "ect " opponent who offered, Therefore, the whole country knows lne wonderful drop kicker, Hudson; Metoxon, the Irresistible line bucker; Johnson, tho great quarter back; Betnls Pierce, Jhe giant guard; Houb- er, InBt year'B phenomenal line plunger and place kicker; Red Water, Lobo Wolf, Seneca, who was accorded a place as all-American, half back; Exendlne, a flawless end; Mount Pleasant, last year's wonderful quarter back; .McFarland, Cayou, Wheelock, Scott, Rogers and a score of others. Genius of Hard Work. Most persons have assumed that the Indians' wonderful performances re sulted solely from the natural skill of the red men, but such is not the case. The genius of hard work plays the greatest part In the success of teams wearing the big "C." No squad in the country is driven as hard as the Indians. The head coach, War ner, believes constant practice is tho price of football success, and there is being tackled, and to dodgo and catch punts. The mighty warriors who make Hip Warner's first team havo to 'take up this practice first, tho same ob tho humblest hunch of scrubs. There is no man on the team who becomes so skilled that he is allowed to lose sight of the foct that a never coaslng prac tice at the rudiments Is tho best way to develop a winning football team. And that is the explanation of the skill with which the Indians follow tho ball, and con be relied on in case of fumbloB to recover the ball four timos out of five. Team Loses Good Men. Carlisle has lost a number of its goo. I men, and or last year's line-up only five veterans are bock. A newly passed rule forbidding any player to represent the school more than four stores. years on the. gridiron cost a number of.jnen and injuries will keep out a couple more stars. The most serious loss Is Houser, whoso injured back makes it next to impossible for him ! to play Saturday. What Pennsylvania specially needs to watch is tho Indian use of tho for ward pass. This has been developed by the aborigines to a great degree of perfection. Thoro is nothing hap hazard about throwing or catching the ball, as was tho cose last year. Every thing this season seeniB to bo deadly accurate, the outcomo of careful plan ning und unceasing practice. Walter H. Eckersall, In Chicago Tribune. The Beta Thota PI fraternity house on University avenue 8.

Probably tho ono feature of Satur day's game with Nebraska, outside the playing, was the thoroughly sports manlike attitude of the Minnesota rooters towards their opponents. When the Nebraska team came on the field, when their band appeored and marched to their place, and when their Individual players were laid low, they were cheered repeatedly. It was the worthy treatment of a worthy foe. Too bod that such a record could not hnvo gone unblemished.. It must be the regret of every right-minded Minnesota man that the disgraceful incident which took place after the game In which the concerted attempt was made by a number of rowdies I blush to confess they were college men to sieal tne hat ot a Nobraska student, who was standing alone. Such (leplcable conduct con only de servo the universal condemnation of our entire student body. Only by decisively placing the stamp of dis approval on such actions can such' practices be stopped or can we hope to retain our present reputation or sport Minuillke, gentlemanly treatment or our opponents not only on, but off the field, a reputation that should bo Inseparably linked with true Minne sota spirit. A Spectator, in Minne sota Daily. DOGS ON THE MISSOURI CAMPUS. All the Dogs In Town Were Staked Out. "Dog-gone" wos tho expression used by many or Columbia's worthy citizens on Monday morning. And that state ment was very truthful, for on that morning dogs of all kinds were scarce except in one place; the campus around the modicul building of Mis souri university. Here were "staked out" dogs of varied descriptions. There were pointers, setters, bull dogs, collies, curs and a largo ma jority were Just ordinary dogs. Tired or being lectured to every day by their profs, on anatomy, physiology and pathology, the sapn-medlcs at tempted to still further folldw the ex amples of tholr seniors. So each pro cured a dog. Tho collars and chains W(rj not tho usual ologant kind, yet tho heavy twine held the dogs as well as engraved collars and nlckoted chains. Tho show was very "noisy" to Bay the least since mo dogs woro perfect strangers to each other and tho would-be practitioners added much to the din, each claiming tho super iority of his dog over the otnors.
