OMAHA , July 30. To the Sporting Editor
of Tin : Bii ; : Among the many people who
drive their own carriage in this city , how
easy It Is to pick out the heartless 01103 by
the wny they use that senseless contrivance
the overhead chock.
It U hard to determine for what purpose it
was ever Invented. Not for beauty , cer
tainly I For who can think that the natural
grace of u horao is enhanced by curving his
noclc upward instead of downward ? It can
not have boon for comfort-for , who has not
pitied the poor creature as ho stumbles along
with his nose high In the air , jerking his
head from side to shlo in u vain endeavor to
free himself from the hurtful obook that
gives htm so much pain. [ low long could
any man endure such torture even without a
loud to drawl
It Is observable that the men who own the
most valtmolo horses are the ones who do nnt
allow tholr animals to sufTorfrom thla abuse.
Tholr coachmen and hostlers nro chosen for
their Intelligence , and uu intelligent man is
usually a humane ono.
Hut in many cases where only ono horse Is
owned , the cure of it is given into the hands
of some ignorant boy , or its owner plvo It
slip-shod und indifferent euro that at once
marks him as being , to say the least , lacking
In humanity.
It Is Iho business of the humane society to
attend to such cn cs. Therefore , lei , onoh
ono report to that socloty the names of these
abusing their horses by the tight overhead
chock.
Can there not bo n particular law enacted
forbidding the use oftho overhead oheokI

With a team drawing one-third loss money
Patsy Toboau finished ono notch higher up
In the race than Plttsburg and won the ma
jority of cninos , and what's better , the team
is in harmony nil the time.
These bo troublous days for the whilom
gods of the diamond , and'there's no tolling
where and when it Is ull going to stou. And
the beauty of it is tbo magnate * haven't been
compelled to call In the Pinkortons.
Cincinnati in the first season led every
city in the longuo in attendance. The
old Queen City has never turned out such
crowds as these that have cheered Captain
Comlskoy's oats In tueir struggle for su-
promacv.
Much has boon said about Bouon's
pitchers , but , it is not remembered that the
pLenomliiul Holding of Long , Nash , Duffy ,
Tucitor and McCarthy made the pitchers
strong. The best pltchora show up weak
when poorly supported.
Pnrrntt. Alison's ' now third basomanwears
a broad grin that noverlosos any of Its longl-
tudinosity. Ho has the appearance of being
on good terms with himself. This is the
kind of ballplayers that receive encouragement -
mont from thu average crank.
Clausen , the pitcher Mr. Von dor Abe
hoped to cot , and who the Loulsvilles
secured , won seventeen straight games and
lost four for Columbus iu the first champion
ship season. Stephens did almost as well ,
winning llflocn and losing eight.
If then ) is ono thing moro than another
which ( luliahts thu soul of Danny Richardson
It is that Washington finished uho.id of Now
York. Of course Danny admits that It would
bo bettor for nil hands If Now York had a
loading team , but it Is balm to know that his
loam outpolntcu his old lovo.
Clarence Duval , Uuclo Anson's old mas-
cotto , was fata'ly ' hurt on the Chicago fc
Alton near IMoomiugtou. Ho was asleep on
the track , and a companion named John
Allen was instantly killed. The little colored
boy was ruined by the trip around thu world
and has been lazy ana worthless over slnco.
Unless Captain Pfoffor can get some idea
of biiHO running In the heads ot the Colonels
the Loulsvlllas will never ncatn occupy a
high place in the raco. Tom Brown is the
only Ilrst class base runner on the team. The
rnrunindcrof the players , with the oxcoptlon
of Jennings , do the tiod-to.tho-staKo act
every tlmo they roach n base.
Fielding can bo taught , but heavy hitting
butsmon , like poets , nro born , not mado. It
is impossible to teach an old horse new
tricks , nnd it is just as impossiblu to make a
good batsman out of a player unless ho Is a
natural born tuttor. This is easily proven
by the fact that the man who now lead the
league have always boeu hard hitters since
they lirst came Into thu business.
What under the sun the opponents of a
double championship season can 11 nil ttint ,
is dlstaUctul is past ull discovery. The most
prejudiced base ball crenk cauunt help but
view with a crent deal of satisfaction the
abanco every loam has to bettor Its standIng -
Ing and possibly win out with a good lead.
From now on , instead of being a pokey
old iiilair , running In a , rut , the race for the
championship will bo ttllod with renewed
interest.
One of the most peculiar plays over seen
was made in a rucei > t Baltimoro-Clovolnnd
game by Shook und McGraw in the oightn.
With McAleor on second O'Connor hit a lly
to short center. Shoch got under it and Me-
Gruw was not far uwuy. The shortstop
caught the ball uut It bounded out of his
hand. There was a yell of joy In the stand ,
but it came too early. McGraw made u dive
for thu ball and before It reached the gtnund
had naught It. U was a brilliant and at the
same tlmo lucky play.
Six of the plavori wno have worn the rod
and bnttlod for Cluclnimli in the days of old

Owing to the thunder shower last Thurs
day aitornoon the Uoinls Pane Gun club did

will shoot next Thursday , a grand all-round
shoot besides the club run , in which live
birds will bo used.
A Sunday or two ago I made mention of
the scarcity of woodcock in this state , to
which an anonymous correspondent takes
exception. In a orlef note he says : "I remember -
member the time , not moro than ton years
ago , when good cock shooting uoula bo ob
tained not six imloj from Omaha. I have
shot them 'myself , us I hey have always been
my favorite game. I never learned to under
stand the bird , however , although 1 have
studied them hard. As you havu probably
had some expurionce with them , can't ' you
give us a little information through THIS
BIK : | " I will add this much : 1 have talked
with tiovusal old gunners about the city and
they say the day never existed when any
thing like u good bag of woodcock could bo
made bore. Billy Nuson , who has' been huntIng -
Ing und shooting olT nnd on lor lifteen or six
teen years in this vicinity nnd who Is a close
observer and a well posted sportsman , lias
only bagged four woodcock In nil that time
mm scon probably us many moro. Ho knows ,
now , the haunts ot ono old bird , which ho
nnd ether gunneiM have futilely endcavorsd
to bring to bag lor several year * , hut says ho
wouldn't ' know where to look for another.
The woodcock , on account of its solitary
life during most of the year , Is u hard bird to
study. Some of Its most peculiar and Inter
esting habits scorn to have escaped the ob
servation of the naturalists , who have hud
little opportunity to watch them hi their na
tive haunts. In tnu western slates tliolr
feeding grounds are , as n rule , In low , wet
luniU that are covered with u thioK growth
of bushei and swamp grasses , rendering It
almost impossible to see them whan they are
on thu grouud. In the east , however , es
pecially In the hilly parts , Ihave
found them feeding in the .comparatively
ouon woods , where I , hud little trouble lu
seeing thorn and making nbto of thuir move
ments. Early In April the woo'dcocks arrive
In the sheltered valloys'of soutlioni Ohio and
scatter themselves wldeiy lu pair * to spend
thu nesting season' . The mate bird has the
habit of rising spirally In the early morning
light , sometimes higher than t/ha tree tops ,
and balancing himself In the air , mttorliig n
low , droning sound , whirh mn'ybo heard tea
a considerable distance. This Is his call to
his mate , und when ho falls the fomala Is
sure tu bo near iho spoi. The b.lrdsph'iy' in
a very droll fashjon , running rpuud and
round each other lu n small circle on iho
ground , tholr feathers ruffled , tholr wings
delicately lifted , and their long "bills pointing
directly upward , their heads routing .upon
their back * . Koinotlmas they hop on onu foot ,
holding the ether ut tin odd. angle as If It
wcro broken , which elves n very comical &u-
pearancp , the male In thu meanwhile uttering
n low murmuring sound. The fo-nule bird
often carries her youug between her foot
when flying , nna I have seen the [ nalQ.ljIrd
do this. One Miiuulur habit of woodoouKd ,
which I huvo never seen noted by ornitholo
gists , u that both male und female sit upon
the tiost ut tbo same time while Incubating ,
If the weather Is cold and wet. In doing this
they uraw very close together , lopklng In op
posite directions , their beadi thrown back
nnd their bills elevated at an angle of forty-
live degrees. Tiff
The woodcooll'V Iblll 14 covered with n
membranous sheath that has a line not won <
of nerves. This enables the bird to find It *
food by boring In * sofr earth , Its feeding
tfmo Is at nlKhtDr..pn dark days , when It
mav bo seen mtfvWg about Hi a qulc.f , nerv
ous manner touchki'mlho ground with the tip
of Its bill nnd using Us wings nnd tall ns If
there wore dnngofTJf tumbling over. The
nervous covoritiir qfytho bill Is so sensitive
that the bird uair'dUtlngulsh ' with It thn
slightest mavnmojitDf : i slug or n worm sov-
cial Inches below the surface by simply
touching the , grinrmu Some times In boggv
places where thcuHiiid will .shako the wood
cock drums the surface llghtlv with the fore
ti irt of its wing * to make the worms stir so
that It can doietfil-whero they nro nnd probe
for them.
Another curious fiablt of this bird Is that
ot moving its eggs loan extemporized nest
when It Is disturbed while Incubating. I
was told of this habit by nn old time sports-
mmi , and afterward verified It by cxperlt
mont. Finding n nest near n snotwherol
was camping I disturbed the sitting bird two
or throe times each ilny , ifiid on the third day
! t moved Its eggs to anew hostaboutllfty foot
nwny from the original otui. The second nest
appeared to bo vorj' rudely and hastily con
structed , and was In a plAon tnuuh moro diffi
cult to roach than the tint.
