They were totally disorganized Flanagan nnd Traflle/ have been trying t break up the Omaha team and they rodoubiei their efforts today. Flanagan has ulway been a duorcanlzcr and made much trout ) 1 in the DCS Molnos club. Yesterday ho wa foul-mouthed on the grounds to an extern which disgusted his associates and ho wa duly roasted In the pajers. This mornlni Hob Leadloy started to give him his release but later took him back ; but Flana gnn hud hardly took his stand 01 first bag when It became apparent tha ho had dcliboratolr resolved to mak trouble. Ho allowed ball after ball to KO b ; him when liecould obviously huvo stoppoi them easllv. Manager Lcadly fined him $100 before thi game was half played out. This scorned ti cool him down somewhat. Trafiley was In the plot with the obstrep irous tirst baseman aud co-operated will him. Both conspirator * will bo release- probably. Big Morrlssoy , who has playoi Jlrst base for Iho Corn Huskcrs , will supply Flanagan's place , at least temporarily. Under the circumstances It was uttorli Impossible for the visitors to play good ball The remainder of the team worked like Tro ] ans , and at times played well , but they wort thoroughly disorganized. In the second game Hasty Wright had U be put into the box , and his delivery was merely pudding for the Corn Huxkors. whc were never In better trim for triumphanl ball than today.

It possesses n magnifying power of IIXX ( ) dlnmctari. As might bo ex pected , electricity piny * nn Important part in tbu workings of this glgantlo Instrument , whlcli , nttor Inspection by American citizens , is expected to give an imuotus to the Munich mitri for scientific apparatus. The oloctrlclty furnishes nnd regulates the source of light , which placed in the focus of a parabolto ntuinlntnu rcllector reaches an Intensity of 11,000 candle power. The electricity also provides the moans of an lugonlous auto- miitic mechanism for the centering of the quadruple condensers and Illuminating the lenses. There Is nn arrangement for the oxuct control of the distance of the carbon point. The most important novel feature is the coolIng - Ing machine , which is Indispensable on ac count of the extreme heat , 1-43 calories par second , generated by the intense illuminating arrangement. A machine regulatoa by a Holmnotz electric cen trifugal regulator provides the several ml- croscopio and nolarlscoplc systems of the apparatus with a fine spray of fluid carbonic ncld , which Immediately after its release from the copper vessel , In which It Is Hold unior" a pressure of twenty-three atmos pheres , becomes converted. Into gaseous matter - tor , so Intensely cold that only .0000 * grammo of carbonic acid per second is required to give the result. The. magnifying power of the apparatus with ordinary objectives , as has boon stated , is about 11,000 diameters , but with the oil Immersionitcan beincreased to 10,000. Mrs. Potter Palmer has called upon women sculptors to send designs in the form of miniature models of the sculpture work for the womon's building. The designs must bo delivered to Mr. Palmer's olllco biiforo November lu next. One Is a group of figures in high rollol to nil the pediment over the main entrance , forty-live feet long at the base line and seven foot In the center. The second design of groups of statuary stands free above the attic cornice , resting on thn base , live feet long , throe foot deep ana two foot hlgn , sixty feet from the ground. Those groups consist of a oen- tral winged figure , standing about ton fuel high to the tip .pf , the wings , and supported by smaller slttiug.figures.

" An impostor , calling himself "W. Stiassny , Louls-lo-Grand Paris " has been of 19 Rue - - , , engaged in selling , in Europe , agencies tor the exposition. He sold the agencies for Nor way and Sweden to a Stockholm man for $ ' ) ,000. The exposition authorities have taken steps to put a stop to bis operations. No ono is authorized to sell ngoncles for the ox- position. Henry B. Worthiugton has offered to fur nish the exposition , free of charge , pumps with n capacity of-10,000,000 gallons of water a day. . It has boon decided to have the machinery annex an annex in.fact instead of being an isolated structure as at first planned. The annex will adjoin machinery ballon the west. Tno entire structure will thus measure 500 by 1,400 foot , and DO second in size only to the manufactures' building , tha dimensions of which arc 788 by 1BS ( foot. With Its gal leries the latter building will have forty acres of floor space. Among the exhibits from Southern Cali fornia will bo a modal constructed to lllus- trato irrigation. A committee has already been chosen to prepare it. A genius at Muhlenberg , Pa. , bas com pleted a marvelous clock for exhibition nt the fair. Around the dial is a railway track , on whlcli a miniature locomotive makes the round every live minutes. It requires a niagnifving glass to see the.delicate machin ery. 'l'he ' oil cups nt the journals nro so small that nothing larger than a hair can be Inserted. There is a hoadlli-'ht and bell , Jlag- holders on the pilot , whistle , nnd everything connected with a locotaotlra. It has a link motion under the engine to rovcrso it. The weight of the locomotive Is H * pounds , and it has been named "Tho Gem.

Will Adopt a New System. WASHINGTON- . C. , Sopt. 0. The internal revenue bureau has boon considering for some time the advisability nnd practicability of adopting what is known as the weighing system for the official determination of the quantity of spirits placed in casks and pack ages. The spirits absorbed into the wood would add to the weight of the packages , so the commissioner has requested distillers throughout the country to assist his olllco in arriving at some conclusion as to the overage amount of spirits thai will bo absorbed , nnd It is probable that n Deduction will bo made from the gross weight of packages on this account. It is necessary to know the strength of the spirits as well as their weight , so that it will bo Impracticable to ascertain the quantity of spirits In a package by this method where any considerable quantity of ' saccharine material him been ndded , for 'tho reason that the strength of the spirits cannot be determined after such addition , and the old method must then bo used. The present system Is regarded ns undesirable for the reason that it only approaches accuracy when the casks nro made in n regular form and the inslilosurfaces completely smooth. CUT HIS T HIM AT.
