GOPHERS HAD TO FIGHT South Dakota Proves Stroxg Oppon- ent in Football Game Against Minnesota. ROBINSON ~ FAILS TO PASS Minneapolis, Oct. 9.—One of the largest crowds that ever wnnessed‘ an early season football game on Northrop field was on hand Satur- day to cheer the Minnesota boys on to victory in the game between the Gophers and Coyotes. It was the Gophers’ second game of the season. Minnesota won 5 to 0 from the South | Dakotans. The weather conditions were per- fect and the two teams took advant- age of it by playing hard, fast ball. | The game was exciting from start to| finish and on several occasions it looked as though South Dakota would | cross the goal line. At these times, | however, the Minnesota team bracéd | and held their opponents in their: tracks. Much anxiety was caused imme- diately before the game when it was | announced that “Biggy” Robinson would not play. It was thought that| Robinson had cleared himself in his| conditions, but Dr. Williams was told shortly after noon that the big guard had failed to pass in one subject with | a margin of 1 per cent. The faculty might possibly allow Robinson to play in the later games. . i This discouraging news, however, ‘was partly counteracted by the ap-| pearance of Morrell, last year’s cen- ter, on the field. Although he was not played in today’s game, it was announced that he has become elig-| ible and will- be used as soon as he can round into shape. Captain Pickering won the toss and chose to defend the east goal. It! was but a very short time before the only touchdown of the game was made. It looked all Minnesota for a while, but South Dakota braced and gave an exhibition worth seeing. Hanson kicked off to South Dakota | on their 35-yard line. Imlay re- ceived the ball and returned it 10 yards. Thackaberry punted to Cap- ron on Minnesota’s §0-yard line, who returned it to South Dakota’s 45-yard line. Immediately -after Capron made a pretty run of 15 yards around South Dakota’s right end. Stevens failed to gain off tackle. Capron came to the rescue again and made| eight more around right, placing the| ball on the Coyotes’ three-yard liné. Rosenwald in an attempt around right was downed one yard from the goal. Stevens, went through the left side of the South Dakota line for the first and only score. Minne- sota 5, South Dakota 0. Capron, Pickering and Stevens were the best ground-gainers, Cap- ron especially tearing off spectacular runs from five to ten yards time and time again. Powers, who appeared for the first time today, was a tower of strength in the line Rosenwald was seemingly out of condition on account of his short time in prac- tices. For South Dakota Thackaberry and Coffey were the stars. They are two of the fastest men ever seen on the Gopher field and they tore| off spectacular runs for long gains. Dr. Williams will now begin hard work in preparation for the Nebras- ka game. With the apprehension of the first showing of new material wearing off, the followers of the team have the highest hopes for the rest of the contests.

(By EDGAR WILLETT.) If I live to be as old as Sam Thomp- son there s one series of games I never will forget. And when I forget that series there will be one play still left in my mind. The series is the one that_the Tigers and Athletics played late in that season when we fought them out to the finish away from home and won by a nose the right to play Chicago for the world’s championship. For exciting situations and desper- ate playing, I belleve that series is the greatest ever played. The nine- teen-inning game in which we beat them is only a part of it. But the play that I never can forget was one | by which Charlie O'Leary and Her- mann Schaefer saved one of the games for us. Just how O’Leary ever managed to make that play I can’t guess. It was one of those impossible plays that a game player sometimes makes simply because he has to make it. The situation, as I recall lt, was this: Detroit was one run to the good late in the game, and it looked as if that one run was about enough to win on, until, with one out either In the seventh or eighth inning, two sharp hits put Athletic runners on first and third and made it look bad for the Tigers. The next batter up— I have forgotten who it was, but think it was Harry Davis—hit straight through the box and as clean across the top of second base as a i hit ever went. | Both men -on the bases were run- ning when the ball was hit and it looked bad. The ball got over second base, with Schaefer diving at it; but he couldn't reach, and then, ten feet or more back of the bag, O'Leary came from nowhere, and while going as fast as he could run scooped that the ground. It seemed as if he caught Pitcher Ed Willett. the ball and threw backward with the runner who was coming down from same motion, and the ball went to Schaefer at second base, forcing the first. Germany’s back was toward first base. He didn’t turn or try to turn, but threw backward across his body to Rossman, straight as a die, and doubled the fellow who had hit the ball. I think that was the greatest play 1 ever saw, and as It turned out it | saved the game for Detroit. (Copyright, by W. G. Chapman.) MILLERS TO HAVE NEW PARK If Negotiations Prove Successful Min- neapolis WIIl Have Modern Grand- stand In Two Years. Minneapolis followers of the nation- al pastime took notice the other day when the story leaked-out that the Cantillons have in mind the making of a new baseball park within easy walking distance of the center of the business district, to have a seating ca-.| | pacity double that of Nicollet park. The Cantillons, it is stated, are dick- ering for coveted property, and the | building of the new park hinges whol- 1y upon their ability to close the deal. Even if the negotiations are suc- cessful, it is stated, it is unlikely that the park will be ready for occupancy next season. In the event of purchase the building of a modern grandstand, the bleachers and the diamond will be timed so that the 1913 season will find the Minneapolis team of the American assoclation in a new and superb home. -y Winning Team for Washington. Manager James McAleer has con- cluded that the only way to produce a winning team to.represent Washing- ton is to weed out the oldsters and supplant them with young bloods. It looks now as if Elberfeld, Conroy, Schaefer and other vets will not wear Senatorial uniforms after this season. McAleer has picked up several pro: ising youngsters and is on the look- out for others.

Johnson, Walsh, Gregg, Cicotte, Ford. That’s the renking order of the American league boxmen outside off the Athletic pitchers, according to Danny Murphy, the heavy sticker of the_Athletics. He says that Walter Johnson, right, is the best pitcher he ever faced in Waliter Johnson. his life, and he doesn’t bar the impec- cable Mathewson when the latter de- feated the Mackmen in the 1905 world’s series. Walsh, he says, is the funniest pitcher to face, as you know what is coming. The miner of Meri- den, Danny says, only hés a fast one and a spitter, but the flelding behind him makes him invincible. This is due to the fact that you cannot whale the spitball upward, but must keep it on the ground and it rolls along indolent- ly at that. Gregg is a corker, according to Mur- phy, who states that the Portland plas- terer knows how to mix his stuff up better than any youngster he has seen break into the league for some time. Cicotte and Ford are both danger- pus men, Danny asserts, and he claims that when they are right they have as much on the ball as anybody in the business. of ‘Walsh’s 1o hit no run game of re Murphy couldn’t have seen or heard | DUMAS’ FATEIN HANDS OF JURY; BURNING WORDS MARK CLOSE (Continued from first page). Mr. Janes ridiculed the idea that 18 was intimate with per- sons of the DaylstLeClare crowd in order to rid the town of Cass Lake of men who are criminals. “Now, why did Dr. Dumas cultivate the associations of such persons?” continued Mr. Janes. “Is it part of the duties of the mayor of a town to mix in moments of pleasure ‘with such men as tnis?” Mr. Janes then took up the work to be done at Cass Lake. “To blow the Peter—more properly the safe— and-to do the job so that-it would be known as a good job,” he said. As to the nitroglycerine, Mr. Janes declared Dayis went to Cass Lake and that “it stands undisputed that he was to get them from this defend- ant.”” “The evidence shows Dr. Dumas got 10 sticks’of dynamite from the O’Neil Lumber Co. and six sticks were found in Dr. Dumas’ safe. Four sticks were used-for some purpose. The DuPont expert says four sticks would make 11 ounces of nitroglyc- erine, and Behan testified Davis had Jjust about. that amount.” Mr. Janes told.of Smyth’s telephone message from Duluth. when the doc- tor was said to say, “J had trouble getting the dynamite and the boys are now out in the wocds threshing it out.” Ole Ferguson next came in for a scoring. “The' kindest thing I can .| say of him is to- pronounce his name and then stop,” said Mr. Janes. The assistant attorney riddles the idea that Ferguson “took dynamite, slept with it, left it by’ the cigar counter and then took it home and blew a stump.” Mr. Janes then held up the leng stems of timothy supposed to have been- taken from the stump, spot, and told the jury such a pro- duct from seed sown in June whs im- possible in this or any other country and that timothy planted from seed does not head out as had the timothy taken from the Fergurson place. Mr. Jarres flatly accused Ferguson of lying about the time he purchased the dynamite and that it was Fergu- son who was out in thc woods with Mike Davis threshing out the dyna- mite. “That nitroglycerine that Mike Da- vis brought from Cass Lake was from 4 of the sticks which Dumas bought in Cass Lake,” declared Mr. Janes. After’ the noon recess, Mr. Janes took up the LeClare letter incident in which Mr. Janes said the mayor got a letter from Ed. LeClare in Montana asking him to send his clothes which he had left in Cass Lake, and: that 3--Vaudeville Acts--3 OPENING AT Brinkman Theatr Toni Dr. Dumas pay thé hafges ad he (Dumas) had more morey thar bLe- Clare. Taking up the saloon conferénce in Bemidji in June, attended by Du- mas, Behan, Davis and Smyth, Mr. Janes said: “It is fortunate for the people of Beltrami county that nothing went wrong in John Larson’s saloon.” “Now, from Larson’s saloon Smyth and Dumas went to the Rex hotel when a.check for $200 marked ‘land deal’ was made, and-there can be no doubt in your mind but that this was the check which Was to pay Dr. Du- mas for burning the Puposky store.” Mr. Janes told of the officers going to Puposky. He told of the testimony of Mr. Herbert of Brainerd, who said he had seen Dr. Dumas in the Rex hotel with a man with a dark com- plexion and black moustache, “and it did not develop who this man was but it certainly could not have been Bert Smyth, but the description very much resembles Mike Davis.” Mr. Janes took up the telephone message from Smyth in Duluth, list- ened to by Clarence Stone, a bellboy, to Dr. Dumas when he asked him, “what caused the delay?” meaning said Mr. Janes, the job at Puposky: “Now, how about the affair at Pu- posky,” continued Mr. Janes. There were the officers in hiding—three de- tectives. And I know the animosity of counsel for Pinkerton detectives, but when Mr. Fielding went on the stand, counsel did not ask him one question. “Now then, Friday afternoon Davis and Behan went to Puposky. Friday night or Saturday morning Davis and Behan entered the store, taking with them nitroglycerine, tools, dynamite caps; wicking, etc., and they go in noise and they run out, go to the rear and see a rifle, but still unalarmed they go back to the front of the store when the firing began. “It is true there were five armed men against them but it was no child’s play. These officers knew at least one was armed. “And when Norman Helmer step- | ped out at the signal he did not know but that he would face two heavily armed men, and that took some nerve. There was not an officer there that night who did not stand his ground. “True, Davis got away, Behan was caught and told his story to you here. “Now, who comes along. The may- or of Cass Lake, educated by the schools of the state, this man, hon- ored by his people—he is the man Wwho nearly got Behan. sits that man. “The same man, who on the way to Hibbing, the night of the Puposky Here today crime, said to the man sitting next Vaudeville & Motion Pictures 1.

The defendant was arrested in Hibbing, and is here today in court. Behan, badly wounded, tells his story in the county jail to Norm Helmer, apd then to Sherm Bafley. And there were men honest enough and courageoly: enough to go through with it. “In the jail came word to Behan that Dumas had said, when advised that Behan needed an attorney, ‘Oh, he’s a yap—Iet him go to hell, or the pen,” and that was, I believe what first caused Martin Behan to tell his story. “Now, it is up to you gentlemen, to say whether there was an attempt at crime. “Now, I have not mentioned two men until now—one is John Benner. You saw him on the stand and his condition. But he said something. He told you he had gone to Oshkosh to get Behan out of the way and that he was sent $50 by Pat Kennedy, on behalf of Dr. Dumas. “The evidence in this case shows that the Cass Lake bank sent $50 to Jack Black at Oshkosh, and Benner said he was Jack Black. “Why was Benner sent to Osh- kosh? I will tell you why. He was sent for the same reason Al Ha- zen was taken to Funkley’s office, for an improper purpose. Benner went to Oshkosh for a sole purpose, on un- | disputed evidence, to get Martin Be- han out of the country. He comes back and reports to his principals at Cass Lake. “Now, one other bit of evidence, the evidence of George Stein. Stein has known Dr. Dumas and is a friend. Reluctantly he went on the blame him for there is no more sacred bond—but that of friendship, be it said to the credit of Stein, parted. Stein on the stand said Dr. Dumas had told him he did know of the Puposky affair and that he had been ‘turned’ by a | friend. “Now, I know what an unpleasant duty it is to pass sentence upon any man, much less a young man, but it requires stern measures .to rid so- ciety of vampires which prey upon innocent victims.
