Cannot load LinCE dataset
Hi @finiteautomata, thanks for reporting.

Unfortunately, I'm not able to reproduce your issue:
```python

   ...: dataset = load_dataset("lince", "ner_spaeng")

    test: Dataset({

})
``` 

Please note that for this dataset, the original data files are not hosted on the Hugging Face Hub, but on https://ritual.uh.edu
And sometimes, the server might be temporarily unavailable, as your error message said (trying to connect to the server timed out):
```
ConnectionError: Couldn't reach https://ritual.uh.edu/lince/libaccess/eyJ1c2VybmFtZSI6ICJodWdnaW5nZmFjZSBubHAiLCAidXNlcl9pZCI6IDExMSwgImVtYWlsIjogImR1bW15QGVtYWlsLmNvbSJ9/ner_spaeng.zip (ConnectTimeout(MaxRetryError("HTTPSConnectionPool(host='ritual.uh.edu', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /lince/libaccess/eyJ1c2VybmFtZSI6ICJodWdnaW5nZmFjZSBubHAiLCAidXNlcl9pZCI6IDExMSwgImVtYWlsIjogImR1bW15QGVtYWlsLmNvbSJ9/ner_spaeng.zip (Caused by ConnectTimeoutError(<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x7feb1c45a690>, 'Connection to ritual.uh.edu timed out. (connect timeout=100)'))")))
```
In these cases you could:
- either contact the owners of the data server where the data is hosted to inform them about the issue in their server
- or re-try after waiting some time: usually these issues are just temporary Great, thanks for checking out!
## Describe the bug

Cannot load LinCE dataset due to a connection error

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```python

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("lince", "ner_spaeng")
```

A notebook with this code and corresponding error can be found at https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1pgX3bNB9amuUwAVfPFm-XuMV5fEg-cD2

## Expected results

It should load the dataset

## Actual results

```python
