When Doano substituted Jeffrey, formerly contor at Michigan, their hired coach, Pace, made a long but unavailing protest. There upon he substituted Crawford for Shuo on Nebraska's right ond. Sauce for goose, in this instance, proved more than enough for gander. Jeffrey made no noticeable impres sion on Hopewell, while Houston, Fisher and Merman were forced to devote their whole attention to Crawford, and got very sick of it. The pathetic appeal of one of them, "Please, Mr. Crawford, don't run into mo so hard," caused no little merriment in the crowd. Of tho Nebraska team, Flippin and Yont gained most applause. Yont made four or fivo astonishing runs and was, perhaps, the hero of tho occasion. TUB TEAMS. NKB1.ASKA. TOS1TION. DOANE.

This was used by Doano invariably and with no little success, though the last half, when Larrabeo made them keep on side by not running past tho ball and making a Y in front of it before it was put in play, it did not work so nicely. Tho first time it gained about ton yards and Doane started with a rush. Mains hit the line three times in quick succession for good gains, and Fishor went through for a small gain. Ne braska soon got down to business now and held tho ball on her fifteen yard lino for four downs "without gain", Mains and Feeze being pulled down in their tracks. No sooner had Nebraska got possession of the ball tlian a steady march began for the oast goal. Yont, Flippin and Oury wont through Doano's lino for substantial gains. Thon after Flippin had tried one end, Yont circumnavigated tho Ancient Mariner ("ho stoppeth ono of three") on Doano's loft end for twonty-fivo yards. Flippin tried his ond again for ten yards, and. lie and Yont alternated through the lino till Yont made tho first touch down in something loss than fifteen minutes from tho time Doano started the ball. Pace, kicked an easy goal. " , Doano played her checker board opening again for ten yards. Mains got around tho ends for seventeen yards and tho handful of Cretans present set up a whoop; but four vain attempts to pierce Nebraska's line failed, and tho ball changed hands. Flip pin, Lowry and Yont went through the lino in order. Yont tried his end for twelve yards. Oury made two good gains in succession. But subsequent at tempts between guard and tackle failed and Doan took tho ball. Feozo made a good start but was pulled down by Flippin and it took ton minutes to recovor. Mains made twelve yards around the end, but in going through tho line on tho next down lost tho ball which turned up in Wilson's hands. After small gains through tho line, Flippin made twelvo yards around the ond, and was soon followed by Yont around tho other ond for thirty yards. Several Doano mon wore hurt and another wait took place. Doano soon after got the ball on downs but lost it at once on throe lino wedges which failed to advance a foot. Yont, Flippin and Whipple plunged through tho lino in order, and Flip pin followed with the second touch down. Pace kicked another goal. Doane started as before and made fifteen yards. Shue in some way got tho ball and ran half tho length of the field with a huge following, bu was brought back.
