lacked a few essentials of the linianeive
Came, but. It la reported, he acu.j;:eU tneae
during the aummer mor.tha while playing
with the Lincoln bunday School league.
He was one of the loading batter of the
varsity and waa o "aura hitter."
Thomas, a southpaw, and Cllna, a for
mer vat-ally player, will be among the
other candidates for substitutes at flint.
Thomas played classy ball In tho frater
nity league last apting and aBplreo to win
hia base bail letter with the Corahuakers.
CUne won his numeral with the Corn
hunkers In the apring of 1907. He waa In
school last season, but, feeling that hia
professors needed him more than the base
ball nine, stuck close to nis books.
Second base Is without an occupant.
"Bobby" Carroll, who was' ttat'oned there
during the last weeks of the season, has
become coach of the varsity, and the
"To let" sign la posted over tho middle
sack. There will be candidates of ail
sizes for that poaltlon.
Wood, a Junior In the university, Is men
tioned as a strong contender for the second
pack place. He 1 said to be shifty
player and a fast traveler. H!a bat work
is reported to be of the highest order.
Watters, a Junior law student, and
Boyles, a sophomore, will be ther candi
dates for the second sack. Watters triad
out with the varsity laM season and'the
year before. He Is fast and with another
spring's training ought to be a varsity
player. Boylcs handles hlmsolf aklllfully
th the diamond, and will be a bidder for
second base. .
"Ole" Metealf for Short.
"Olw" Metcalf, last season's shortstop,
will be posted at his old position again.
Metcalf wai a sensational lnflelder last
spring and was rated as the best collegi
shortstop In the Missouri valley conference
league. He handled difficult drives In a
phenomenal mannpr, and, with Captain
Beltier, averted more than one defeat for
the Cornhilskers. His experience of last
year should make him the star of the nine
this spring. -
The lose of Captain Bcltxer of last year's
team has left a hole in the nine at third
base which will be hard to fill. Beltier
was the leading- lnflelder of the conference
league and played a brilliant game at third.
Pehllman, a sophomore of Lead. 8. P., la
now regarded as a successor of Beltmr.
Pehllman Is an erratic fielder, but Is a
reliable batter. He la aald to be one of
the best college batrmen that has oome to
Nebraska In several seasons. It Is freely
predicted that In ci se he gets a place on
the nine he will lead the crew with his
stick work. Good, reliable batters are the
assets the Cornhuskers will be In dire
need of this season, and Pehllman's pro
clivity to smash the ball will be a great
' aid In placing Mm on the team.
, Dudgeon and Cook are gone' from the
outfield. Sturtesnegger. a veteran, will be
on hand again and will probably occupy
his old position In right garden. Sleughter,
a player of two seasons ago, has come back
to the fold, and will take one of the out
field Jobs. He did some fast fielding dur
ing the spring he made his "N." and should
be able to put up en Improved article for
the Cornhusker fans this year. Sleughter
was among the three bent batters two
seasons ago, and la likely to be a valuable
swatter for this spring.
For the third fielding Job there will be
a vast number of candidates, and Coach
Carroll should have little trouble In getting
a good, all around man to fill the place.
Fordyce, a player who led the Lincoln city
league in batting last aummer, will be ontu
of the aspirants for this vacant garden
poaltlon. Many of laat year's freshmen
will alio try to get this Job.
Manhattan lira Monday Night.
Returning from their trip to Des Moines
and Ames tomorrow, the Cornhusker backet
ball five rest up a day for their game with
the Manhattan Agricultural five on Monday
night. The As ules defeated the Nebraska
qu ntet on the recent trip made by th
local basket ahootera Into Kansas. The
Nebraska players have faint hopea of win
ning from the southsm p'ayera Monday,
for they will be tlned cut from the effects
of tholr Journey to the Iowa cities, while
the Aggtea will be freah and In fine form.
Then, the Cornhuaktrs will be much
weaker on Monday than they were when
they went to Manhattan. Since that trip
they have loet three of their plavcra who
contested against the Aggies. Neat Friday
and Saturday tha Cornhuskers will meet
Minnesota at Minneapolis.
The annual fraternity "barb" athletic
meet will be held In the university gym
nasium Tueaday afternoon. The non-fraternity
athletes won the gamos Inst winter,
and are booked aa the favorites for thN
season, although the Greek letter men are
much stronger than they were last charter
day. Much Intertst has been crtMf-d In
the games for this day and practically ull
the S'-ats In the gymnasium have been sold.

New Alignment of
Clubs.
V
NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-A new lawn ten
Ms organisation of national scope, to be
known as the American Association of
Clay Court Players, has been formed, to
take control over that branch of the Eport,
It w ai announced today by t)r. P. ' B.
Hawk of tho University of Illinois, presi
dent of the new association. The vice pres
idency is to be. filled by a, southern player.
Harry Seymour of iPttsburg Is secretary
and Butler Lamb of Towner, N. . D., Is
treasurer. The executive committee will
be composed of apeolal representatives in
all the states and territories. A temporary
organization was effected in this city at
the time of the annual meeting of the
national association. Dr. Hawk then led
the forces that established the clay court
championship of the United States.' ' In
order to place the newly instituted cham
pionnhtp upon a firmer basis, the new as
sociation has since bee nset afoot. It was
stated that In no manner would the Amer
ican Association of Clay Court ' Players
be antagonistic to the United States Lawn
Tennis association, but shrewd observers
have pointed out that should a difference
of opinion arise in the future the machin
ery now exists for the formation of a new
alignment of clubs.

TREASURE "HUNTERS IN MAINE
How the Coaot Has Been Dngr Over
la Search for Captain Kldd'a '
Gold.
"There are more than a score of spots
along the coast of eastern Maine . where
Captain Kidd is said to have buried hie
treasure previous to his disastrous voyage
to the coast of East Africa," said F. B.
Johnson of Wlscasset, Me.
"Ona of the spot where Captain Kldd la
said to have buried treasure la in Mussel
rtdgo channel, at a point 600 rods toward
the South Thomaaton shore from Twobush
island, and in the center of a triangle
fnmMl hv dpn.wtn' a straight line from
White Head to Twobush, amUher from
Twobush to Owl's Head, and a third back
to the starting point at White Head.
"Hundreds of men In boats have dredged
and dragged the waters about this spot
for a century or longer,, and If any one
has found wealth from the labor the fact
Is not circulated widely, though the fisher
men and clam diggers continue to labor
and hope In spite of many discouragements.
"The second place fixed upon as the
burial spot of pirate wealth Is on Codlead
marsh, where Marsh creek Joins Penobscot
river, six miles Inland from Its Junction
with Penobscot bay. This place Is about
thirty feet above the surface of the salt
marsh In Its hlgest place and holds about
two acrea 'of land. Though It waa origin-'
ally clad In woods, the anxiety of the treas
ure seek era has been so great that not only
have the trees been cut away and used for
fuel by the hunters who have camped
on the spot, but the soli, thousands of tons
In weight, has been shovelled over many
times. It Is estimated that enough earth
has boen handled by the campers of Cod
leadload to build embankments and fill cuts
for the grading of a railroad twenty miles
In length. In other words. If the hunters
for Kldd wealth had hired out with rail
road contractors they could have earned
130,000 at regular rates Instead of the few
rusted and battered old coins which were
discovered In the ground at that spot In
179S. and which have led to the wasting of
so much human energy." Washington

Aa the youngster approached the princi

PIONEER TRAINER HONORED
Jack Best is to Be Sent to Old Home
in England on Vacation. 1
TWENTY-TWO YEARS' SERVICE
Friend of All .Athletes Who Have
Played on Any Team at the
University of Nebraska
DarlntT that Time.
LINCOLN, Feb. 12. (Special.) "Old
Jack" Best Is going on a vacation trip
back to his home in England, and tho
alumni . and undergraduates of the Uni
versity of Nebraska are going to send him.
This is the news that was wafted around
the campus at the university this morning,
thrilling the patriotic cords of all students
and tingling their blood with an ineffable
feeling of pride for the gray-haired trainer
whese services for Cornhusker athletes
during the last twenty-two years have
made him a Nebraska character, Inspiring
rerpect and honor as the embodiment of
the true Nebraska spirit of tradition and
custom.
The Dally Nebraskan, the student pub
lication of the university, started the
movement to give "Jack" a trip to his
old home, and annotmced In Its editorial
columns 'this morning that Its subscrip
tion list, which will be opened Monday,
will be headed by a donation of 110 from
C. E. Holmes of this city. Tho Nebraskan
will . conduct its Best subscription cam
paign for one week, receiving contributions
from all alumni of the university and
friends of the old trainer during that
period.
"Jack" Best was born In Somerset, Eng
land, sixty-four years ago this spring. In
the summer of 1887 he came to this country
and drifted west to Nebraska, locating at
Crete. After a year's residence In that
town he journeyed to Lincoln, and a few
weeks after his arrival In this city he waa
engaged to look after the Nebraska gym
nasium ' and the handful of Cornhusker
athletes. ,
Lousj Service Rewarded.
For twenty-two years faithful "Jack"
has been the American lord of tho Ne
braska gymnasium. There has been his
manor; there hia word has been law; there
he haa had hundreda of tenanta. From his
stool near a window on the south side of
the locker room he has seen many a green
athlete make his first entrance Into the
gymnasium and from that same seat he
has watched that same athlete leave the
gymnasium for the laat time, after serving
the Scarlet and Cream for four years.
Every Important athlete that ever came
to Nebraska has been given personal at
tention by "Jack" Best. Every athlete and
every student have been "Jack's" friend.
He Is the one character and the one tra
dition that all alumni recall In connection
with their four years at Nebraska. No
athlete ever returns to visit his alma mater
that he does hot "drop around" to see the
Cornhuaker trainer.
The station Nebraska men attain In at-
rafrs axter graduation, even
if it be a
very high one, does not dim their memory
to faithful "Jack." This was demonstrated
at the Cornhusker banquet of 1008. Gov
ernor Sheldon was toantmaater and his
first words upon arising to call the guests
to order were put Into a short sentence
asking for a toast to the health of "Jack"
Best.
Pioneer at the School.
When Trainer Best came to Nebraska In
18S8 the Cornhuaker students did not know
much about toot ball. Their athletic ac
tivities were devoted to base ball. Boon
after his arrival here, though, foot ball
attracted so much attention that a hired
coach was secured and Cornhusker foot
ball was started on Its way.
Since that time there have been seven
coaches for Nebraska foot ball and
"Jack" remembers all of them and the
elevens they turned out
According to Best, Frank Crawford was
the pioneer coach. Crawford coached for
two years, but In the laat year was beaten
by Doane, coached by Charlea L. Thomaa
of the Unlveralty of Michigan and now on
the editorial department of The Bee. Thla
created a demand for Thomas to coach Ne
braska and hia services were secured.
Thomas was followed by Fielding II. Yoat,
now famous coach of the University of
Michigan team.
Yoat remained only a year and then came
Coach Itoblnaon. In 1900 "Dummy" Booth,
the mau uu made Nebraska famous In
Huntington.
Hartley.
western ahtletlc circles, was brought here
from Princeton. He remained until 1906,
and was suceeded by Coach Foster of
Dartmouth, who lasted a single season.
Then "King" Cole came from Michigan,
and is still the head mentor of the foot
ball candidates.
WEST NEBRASKA FARMS BOOM'
New York Paper Shows Arid lle

Forma. I
The "arid" land of western Nebraska j
no longer exists. What Is more to tho
Doint. It never did exist except in the d-
oeptlve stories of cattlemen whose Immense (
herds grazed on the open ranges tncre
and who "had no use" for farmers, with
their fenoeB and crops and little bunches
of horses, oattle, sheep and hogs.
There Is an Inexhaustible supply of good,
wet water forty to a hundred feet or more
beneath the three to Fix feet of fertile
top soil In western Nebraska, and there
Is an average of twenty-five Inches of
Just os good and Juot as wet water which
drops gently from the olouds that pass
overhead there during each spring and
summer.
Has the east anything more or better to

Take Cheyenne county In western Ner
braska, for Instance, because land there
Is still cheap and may be bought in small
allotments for from 115 to $40 an acre.
There Is not a richer soil, a milder or
more salubrious climate, or a more copious
and useful rainfall elsewhere in the state
or In the adjoining states.
In 1906-7-8-9, on Cheyenne county land
coating never more and often less than i
$26 an acre, there was an average yield
per acre of 41 bushels of oats, 21 bushels
of rye, 36 bushels of barley, 19 bushels of
spring and 28 bushels of winter wheat, 28
bushels of corn, 101 bushels of potatoes, 3
tons of alfalfa, 2 tons of timothy, over 1
ton of wild hay, 19 tonaf sugar beets,
eta
Has tha east anything more or better to
offer?
You do not have to take the word of
one man or one set of men for the fine
farming conditions that prevail In Chey
enne county. You do not have to take
the word even of the Union Pacific or the
Denver-Bllllngs branch of the Burlington
& Missouri River railroads, which run
east and west, and north and south
through Cheyenne and many other coun
ties of the state, and which can, there
fore, hardly afford to boost Cheyenne un
duly. You can have the figures of the
state's own authentic statistics of Chey
enne and the adjoining counties In the
commonwealth; and If you make your
comparisons Tairly, little old Cheyenne '
will profit and not suffer thereby.
But to make this sketch practical we '
must add that the full truth about west- ,
era Nebraska, and about Cheyenne county
particularly, is being told here in Omaha
by a new real estate office, opened by the
W. S Rodman Realty Co. at 406 Bee build
ing. The company was organized Decem
ber 1, 1S09, and succeeds the Rodman-
LooMchen Land company, which for the j
paat three yeara fiaa had Its headquarters i
at Sidney, the county seat of Cheyenne I
county. W. 8. Rodman, a specialist in
western Nebraska farm lands, Is president
of the new corporation; H. H. Loosehen,
with twenty years' experience In -eal es- !
tate, Is vice president, and O. A. Torjfer- !
son, who has practiced law fr the past I
six or seven years. Is attorney, and George
T. and 8. H. Wilson, old real estate
operators, are associates. The Sidney
office Is now a branch of the Omaha es
tablishment and la under the management
of R. W. Devoe.
Desire for a larger field and the re
olve to make wextern Nebraska farm
land more prominent In the national mar
ket have brought these gentlemen to
Omaha.
There Is approximately 30,000 acres of ;
Cheyenne county land ready to be dis
posed of now at the prices mentioned,
and after this is all taken there may be
more. But because no new land like this
is being made and because the demand
for what there la Is constantly growing,
the price will certainly advance very soon,
very rapidly and very decidedly; ao It be
hooves the man who wanta a really good
and profitable slice of It as a home, a
workshop or an investment to got into

company, here In Omaha, Just aa soon aa

Don't ank m to "back" with blinds on;
I'm afraid to.
Don't let some bloclthfad drive ma tha'
haa less sense than I have.
Don't run me down a storp hill, for IT
anything should give way 1 might break
your neck.
Don't whip me when I get frlithtentd or
I will expect It next time and may mako
you trouble.
Don't trot me uphill, for I have you, the
buggy and myself to carry. Try running
uphill with a load yourself.
Don't drive me with an "overelieck" on;
the sun hurts my eyes and I can't Bee
where to step. It's Inhuman and cruel.
Teach me to stop when you say whoa."
and this you can do without Jerking my
head off or tearing my rnouiu. It mav
check me If the lines should drop or break
and save a runaway and smasnup. Cali

Mualaare of a Cynic.
Wise Is the man who Is too sharp to be
a bore.
All things are more apt to come to those
who don't watt for them.
Faith will move mountains, and some
times it even puts up a bluff.
It makes a fellow ht to think what a
cold, cruel world this is.
Opportunity pcld1' !''' hfl w are
all dresaed and waiting for It.
The best thing about b ing alfallure is
that you have plenty of company.
Many a man who wants the earth merely
aucceeda in having mud thrown at him.
Love may be heaven born, but platonlc
affection was the Invention of the devil.
