Striving Plea Saves Gopher From Death Squeals and cries of surprise attracted attention to a knot of persons who had congregated at the south entrance on the middle Administration building Tuesday afternoon. A small animal, brown in color, with head-like eyes, was responsible for the confusion in the vicinity of the hotel where guests were living in the near future will house the higher officials of K. U. The animal, said by those who were said to know to be a gopher, had been found in the hall of the Administration building by two women. The men were caught at night two gallant animals to the rescue who drove the invader outside. This only involved another problem, however, for the mopster to work digging among the plants recently set out on the grounds. A discussion at once as a to what to do to the troublesome stem. Some cruel death penalty, but a storm of protest arose from one tender hearted woman who happened to be passing at the time. She was evidently an enthusiastic member of the humane society, and she made a stirring appeal for the life of the fortunate beast. Her appeal finally won out, and two boys set out in quest of a box in which to put the animal. "Why, he's worth 25 cents," one business-like person replied. "We ought to get a reward for him." "Don't you dare kill him the ad Finally a box was found and after numerous efforts, the animal was imprisoned. Even then the tender-aged woman was not satisfied. "You'll kill him. I know you," she cried. "You let me have him and I made sure he didn't leave. So 'll the box was carefully placed in her hands, and she started on 'er way, after receiving full instructions from the doctor, so so the treatment would not escape." The boys who had chased the golfer from the building stood on the woman, sorrowfully gazing after the woman who was caring for the animal. "I'll bet she lets him loose as soon as she gets out of sight," one person remarked. "Some women are sure tender hearted," was the other's reply.
