Well that was n remarkable gaino Omaha
and Kantns City played yesterday afternoon
anyway.
ID the first place it wns remarkable be
cause the Omahas were shut out for the first
tlmo this season. Iu the second place It. wai
romarknblo because only twenty-seven of
them wont to bat In tbo whole nine Innings.
In the third place It was romarknblo because
only tbroo little measly , putrid hits were
rando off of Mr. Hoach. In the fourth place
It was romarknblo because Hart never gave
a base on balls , and In the llfth place It was
remarkable because it only took ono hour
and nineteen minutes to ploy tbo panic.
Hut what's thu use )
It was a remarkable game , and that set
tles It.
In the opening inning the 11 rH flvo men
who fucod thu Duluth twirler hit him safe ,
and add two moro hits to these , and six runs
and you have the history of the Inning.
From thison out Hart pitched magnifi
cently , nnd but ono moro run wns scored off
of him , nnd that was made In tbo seventh on
King Elinor's threo-baggor and a passed
ball.
ball.Tho Omahas wcro Infants nt the bat and
they only got ono man ns far nround as third
during thu en tire game , and ho pot tbcro by
the grace of Danny Steam's error. Thrco
hits , two by D.iy nnd ono by Fhmncnn was
'
the extent'of their achievements nt the bat.
Barring the fatal first , the game was u
brilliant ono. Hero Is the score :

Most rimntional lOver Hun.
The most sensational Futurity that has
over been run was the ono decided nt thu
course today.
It was sensational because Ed Corrigan ,
owner of the colt Huron , refused to abide by
the decision of the executive committee of
the club that his horse wai not eligible to
start , and Invoked the aid of tlio courts. Also
It was sensational because the colt that
llnally won carried the crushing impost of
130 pounds , and It was sensational uncauso of
the brilliant manner in which the contending
horses were ridden.
When Ed Corngan wns victorious in his
lognlskirmish with the club and secured a
mandatory injunction it was thought that
there would not bo any further trouble , but
the club ofllclals were determined not to rec
ognize the horse in any wav whatever.
When his jockey , Overtoil , wont to weigh in ,
he was not allowca to pass the scales , nnd
then Mr. Corrignn was lichtini ; inatl. In
company with his lawyer ho demanded that
his boy bo weighed , which was tin ally none.
He was not given a number , however , and
there was no batting against him. The colt
ran , finished second , nnd now Mr. Corrigan
will have to sue the club for the $5jGti ( tnat
belongs to the second horse.
ItYnn n i'erlbut Day.
The dny was one of the most magnificent
that has been enjoyed this year. The cool
breeze came direct from the ocean , swept
through the grand stand , and , instead of
fans , light overcoats were in demand. The
crounds never looked prettier , and there was
only one drawback , and that was not n seri
ous ono. The track was not fast. It was
lumpy all over , wet in spots , and such a
thing ns fast tlmo was out of the question.
It was without doubt the largest crowd
that has ever witnessed u derby at Shuops-
head bay. It was a thorough metropolitan
crowd , good nntured while hats were
smashed and whole suits ruined in the mad
struggle in the betting ring. There was not
a disturbance during the entire day , and
this , too , when men's hearts were sore over
the loss of hard-earned dollars.
There was considerable Interest manifested
in the preliminary races , but it was not to
see ordinary horses , eonlendini ; for thousands
of dollar pur.ses , that tho.Journuv to the track
had been made , nnd when the Futurity wns
called a wild rush was nt once made for the
betting ring , and the scene that followed was
inde. < cribabio.
How the IlottiiiR Went.
For the moment men seemed to lose all
control of themselves and nothing was
thought of but betting. Some wanted to
back ono horse , some another , and they ull
wanted the best of the odds. The Gideon
pnlr , His Highness nnd Merry Monarch were
thn favorites , at U to 1 at fltNt , but the m onoy
did not como in fast enough to suit the Im
patient bookies , and they raised the price to
5 to 2 and from that to il , and llnally they
quoted 4 to 1.
In the meantime Dagonotto money had
been rolling into the bookies' hands in regu
lar streams. First there was ! l to 1 , and at
that price tens of thousands of dollars wern
wagered. The books .stood the onslaught
manfully , hut at last they wcro compelled to
rub and 5 to 2 was the closing price.
Thou there was YorkviUo Belle. She
opened at U to 1 and In n few minutes it was
evident that she was nicclvltig support.
Brewer Kbret nnd his friends were confident
that sue would win , mid bet so much money
ou her that at the close the best thut could
bo obtained was U to 1.
Of the others nushford. Lamplighter ,
Tammany , Silver Fox nud Newton were all
nibbled at.
Itcudy TOP tlici ( itnrt.
Finally tbo clear Wast of the bugle was
hoard and the cry went up "They're at tbo
post , " u wild rush was mndo for the open
and then overyouo waited , eagerly clutching
bits' of pasteboard that would either enrich
them or break them. In a few minutes liash-
ford , wearing the peacock blue nud yellow
sash of the liiuhford minor farm and ridden
by I. Lewis , appeared on the track , followed ,
in order Uy thn Maid of Athol , One , Lamp
lighter , Lester , Clmrado , Low Wlor , Anna
H , Huron , Newton , Tammany. Silver Fox
Coo Jav Jay , kavlsb , Triangle , Yorkvlllo
Hello und King Cadmus. It was a trrand
slirht to see the sleek , prancing thorough
breds parading with their heads erect , and
chuor after cheer rent the air.Vhon the
upper end of the stand was readied the line
was broken nud they all cuutored to tha post.
Then commenced tba real strain. Powerful
glasses were levelled at the horses , three-
quarters of a mlle away nnd every movement
was carefully wntchod. Up at the post ttio
tha tension was almost as great , ai every boy
was anxious to gut tbo host of the start , if
possible , and Starter Caldwell was bound
that there should bo no best.
And there was not , for Mr , Caldwell
caught them all well In a motion at thn sou.
end attempt and secured a magnificent start.
"Now They're Off ! "
Yorkvlllo Hello was the first to show , but
her a J vantage was slight and Marj , Anna 13 ,
Lavish , Tringlo and Ills Highness were
lapped un her , with tbo rest not a loncth
away. Murphy at onoo took a restraining
pull on the Hello , but she wa full of racing
and for u Quarter she was In front , followed
bv Merry Monarch , who was , capped by
lluron. with Anna B and Dagoneltu next.
Then Daconotto , with a wonderful burst of
speed , took the lead and His lllghncii and
Huron both moved up.
As they swung Into the stretch there was
little to uhoso between Huron , Ills Highness ,
Yorkvllla Belle , Dagonctto. Mars and Bash-
ford. The excitement wus lutcnso. Any ono
of a half dozcu bones appeared to have a
chance.
Suddenly Overton shot Huron to the front ,
ana although tbcro was not a man on tbo
ground who bgj a boton hlm.they nil cheered
nnd yelled , lUo | the women frnnticallv
clutched the 4t7f1 ° f their male escorts nnd
screamed "Ilu i , " But Huron had not won
yot.

In a faw stndgi Huron nnd His Highness

The oxcltomtfict was now painful In Its In *
tensity. FranUoibettora yelled'und nhniltcd ,
nnd tints , timbfeUas , canes nnd handkerchiefs
were thrown fnto the air.
Hit-lit Opposite1 the stand the struggle com *

Mr. Morrison was lu favor of purchasing
the slto offered by Mr. Barker , consisting of
an ncrn tract.
Dr. Glbbs thought the Barker slto was too
far south. Mr. Wehror throw bin Inlluenco
in favor of the Barker site. Ho declared that
Mr. Jnyiics could not furnish u clear title.
Mr. Martin favored the Jnynos proposition.
Following la the substance of the Jnynui

JO cash and the board to asstimo

nnd the bo.trd to assume the niortgvgu of
The owner also ngrocd lo donate to the city
n strip of ground ton foot wide across , tuo
property to bo used as an alloy.
Mr. Harkor proposed to sell the board
ono aero for $2,000. The Barker property
Is about three blocks south of the
depot of the Minneapolis ft , St. Paul roads ou
the bottoms of North Omaha , while the
Jnynos lots are about ono block north of the
dcpor.
The board flunllv decided to purchase lots
21 , 22 , 211 and 24 In block 1 Sat 1,000 , with the
priviloeo of buying lota 1 , ' . ' , 3nd 4lu tha
same block if they were desired.
The mutter of purchasing furi.nccs for the
Pacific iiua the Pleasant schools was taken
up. The committee recommended that the
contract bo awarded to Lyle Dickey & Co. ,
but after debating the matter for twenty
minutes the report was rejected. if
A wrangle ensued over tbe renting of siniUp *
buildings near the Pacific school. Mr , Mar
tin said that Mr. Stubt had offered to throw
off $10 per month on the rooms he had been
renting to the board.
Mr. Wehror said the Stuht rooms wore not
supplied with the conveniences uccossary
for school purposes.
Dr. Glbbs favored the routine of rooms
owned by Mr. Zimmerman on South
Uluvenlh street. Ho said thut the three
Zimmerman rooms could bo had for $90 PJJSL
month. Stuht had been getting ! 5 for oaehN.
room. The Stuht rooms were a block nearer >
than the Zimmerman rooms , but ho thought
tbo latter wore the moro dcsirablo.
The matter was linally laid over until
Monday night.
Superintendent Hamilton submitted a few
suggestions with reference to minor matters.
Ho said the frame annex at the Center school
could bo moved If the board ucsircd to have
it on the ground owned by the school district.
The building at present stands on land
owned by Mr. Kountzo and the boi > rd pays
him S7.T u year for the use , of. Ills tfiound.
Air. Wnhror declared jnt the building pro
jected over the bank fully ton feet and
pcoplo had mndo a stable under lu
Ho believed that , PIO would move
the building upon the ground owned
by the school district and for ? 20 moro the
b'ulldinc could bo put in coed repair. Super
intendent Hamilton thought the building
could be made safe and in good repair for loss
money wnoro it stood than to move it to the
grounds owned by the school district.
Mr. Babcock held that the building was
absolutely unsafe in its present location. Ho
believed'that a severe windstorm would
blow thu building down the bank.
Mr. Kclley arose lo speaK for the third
time upon tbo proposition to move thu build
ing.
ing."You have apokon several times on _ ,
question , Mr. Kelley , " said President Goo4- ' '
mail , -and you must sit down unless you put ,
the consent of all the members to speak
again. "
"I will not sit down , " retorted Mr. Kelley ,
growing red in the fnco ,
"Sit down , Mr. Kelley , " demanded Mr.
Goodman , pounding the dusk vigorously.
"I will not. " roared Kelloy. "I will speak
as often as I please. Other members have
spouted all they wished to on this qucsltftt
and I will have to sit down. " Mr. Kellay
growled as he looked savagely at the presi
dent and sank iuto his scut , "out if I had you
outside I would set you down d d uuick. "
The siiDcrintohdent of buildings was
llnally instructed to repair the Center school
annex.
Mr. Hamilton submitted an estimate la
favor of Smead & Co. for material for the
Knllom school lurnnces , amounting to $1,800.
Tbo committee on clnl'ns recommended tnut
tlio estimate bo allowed , The report wai
adopted.
Mr. Coburn , from the special coir.mlttcu" " *
appointed to confer with tlio council committee -
tee with reference to uniting In the expense
of tlio coming election , asked thu board
whether the committee should comnloto
the iirniugumontb for joint boards of election
clerks and judges. Hu said that the com
mittee had not been fully instructed
ns to whether the board wished to
have clerks und judges separata
from thu boards appointed by the city nnd
cotintv , or wbotbor c Joint board would bo
satisfactory. Ho said the expense of build.
In IT booths would bo about $2.0,000 , and it
would require over fiOO men lo conduct the
election us members of the boards of Judges
nnd clerks. The city council coiumiUeo und
the county committee thought that the school
board should boar about one-fourth pf thu
ontlro expense.
On motion of Mr. Martin the special com-
mlttco wns authorised to complete the arrangement -
rangomont with the cnminlttous from the
