When trying to download the CoNLL dataset a file not found error is raised.

```auto
from datasets import load_dataset

raw_datasets = load_dataset("conll2003")

```

```auto
FileNotFoundError: Couldn't find file at https://github.com/davidsbatista/NER-datasets/raw/master/CONLL2003/train.txt

```

I saw that David Batista removed the dataset from its original location on January 14 2022 and that may be causing the error (?).

[Here](https://github.com/davidsbatista/NER-datasets/commit/9d8f45cc7331569af8eb3422bbe1c97cbebd5690) is the link to his commit.

I think you need to upgrade to the latest version of `datasets` (cc @lhoestq )

Indeed, I just upgraded to version 1.18.1 and the problem was solved.

Thank you very much!
