But they were , and Just how Father William managed to Inject BO much elixir of llfo Into his hired men during the brief Interval while Old Sol was washing his hands In the China seas Is a mystery that Will never bo solved In this world. But never mind how It was done. It Is enough to know that the team put up a Bill-edged article of ball all around , and the cranks enjoyed ono of the most gingery and Interesting contests that has been seen hero this year. True , the score mounted up Into the double figures , but It was by reason of good , clean hitting , and the few errors that wore made were mostly of the ex cusable variety. A noticeable exception to this was Munyun's wretched muff of an easily thrown ball , which cost a couple of runs and gave the fans a huge disgust. Langford , the new acquisition , made his Initial appearance and held down the third bag , whllo Papa took his favorite cushion on the bench. The new man played a mag nificent game , winning the good will of the crowd from the start. Ho psrpotratcd a beautiful double In the fourth Inning by cat- Ins up Traflley's hot ground hit , catching McVlcker at third , and then recovering In tltma to shut off the runner at first. In the ninth , too , ho made a running pick-up and throw of an apparently safe hit from Jones' bat that was good enough to paste In your Bcrap book. The history of the game constitutes the same story that has been repeated hero so many times this season. The ) homo team allowed the visitors to get just far enough ahead so that they had already added It to their list of victories , and then Just natur ally went In and lambasted the life out of Mr. Burrell and pulled the plum right out of the fire. The crowd liked It , too , and vented their appreciation In a prolonged chorus of congratulation , which was In de cided contrast to the lugubrious howls which went out when the pets were being trampled Into the mud the day before. We started the trouble by scoring once In the first Inning on Moran's safe hit , which tvaa followed by a base on balls , an out and Munyun's two-bagger. The Philistines went us ono better and counted twice , and after wo had drawn a goose egg they repeated the poformance. Three more bases on balls and hts | by Fear and Boyle tied the score In the fourth1 , but the Iowa aggregation came right back at us again with three more. Each team scored three times In the fifth and when the seventh arrived the score was ten to eight against us. But right hero the Omohogs unwrapped a bundle of hits that fairly made Mr. Burrell have epileptic fits. Seery opened up with a throe-bagger , Moran corked out a single and McVey and Fear followed with a couple of Backs apleco. Then Munyun smashed a nlco drop over the fence for four of them , nnd after McVlcker had garnered Pedrocs' fly Langford , Boyle and Whltehlll all hit safely. Soory drew a base on balls , but the next two men were fielded out and the side re tired with flvu runs ahead. The visitors scored once more when Mc Vlcker knocked Hhe ball over the barn for & homo run , but Whltehlll lot out a peg and mowed them down like so many blades of grass In the path of a Kansas cyclone.

The hills are full of rioting miners and the town Is paralyzed. Business Is suspended and the sheriff is organizing a posse to defend - fend the mines. At 1:30 : o'clock this mornIng - Ing a tremendous explosion shook the town. It was followed by a.chorus of derisive yells. When daylight came It was discovered that an attempt had been made to blow up the power house and electric light plant of the Buker Hill and Sullivan mines. Sticks of dynamite had been shoved under the buildIng - Ing and exploded. The explosion was suffi cient to wreck the plant completely , although a largq part of the building was left stand- Ing. The hills above the power house are full of rioters , who make no attempt to at tack the town , but have spent the whole morning rolling rocks down the steep moun tain sldo on the power house and mine buildings. Hugo boulders , heavy masses of slag and big logs have been bounding down the slope all day , crushing everything be fore them. The sheriff Is now swearing In citizens as deputies , and If a sufficient force Is secured ho will probably attempt to clear the hills. The governor has been notified and will probably order out the mllltla. Many people are leaving town. It Is feared attempts will be made tonight to burn or blow up other buildings.

BIG CROWDS FOR do0D EVENTS ASSURED Lover * of Turf Sport * In ThU Vicinity Wnnt None tmftfio ItcU Rnclog and Wlj" . , IJnr Plow Homo Contents. The most Important event In racing cir cles during the past week has been the meeting between Morris Jones' Httlo mar Allx , nnd Ed Pylo's stallion , Hobble P. This meeting was arranged at the conclu sion of Clinton Brlggs' BIuo Hlbbon races In the latter part of June. Allx has a record of 2:07 : % and Robbie has a record of 2:13 : , but competent judges bellovo that ho can cover a regulation course In less than 2:10. : Dur ing the Blue Hlbbon meeting both of thole horses attracted considerable attention and Hobble P was showing some wonderful bursts of speed In his training heats. The merits of the horses were so thoroughly discussed by their- admirers tlmt the owners were prevailed upon to let them go for the goto receipts on July 4. The mere an nouncement of the match was sufficient to bring out a big crowd to Union park and they were repaid by seeing a good four-heat race. Owing to recent rains the track was In poor condition , and from flvo to seven seconds slow. However , the horses wore started and the track at the scratch was so soft that Allx was nearly thrown and broke badly just after receiving the word. She did not recover until Robbie P was seventy-five yards ahead of her nnd then the game Httlo marc set out to close up the gap. She was less than a half a length behind ag they passed under the wlrft , although Pylo hod driven Robbie P to the flnlsh. The tlmo was slow , 2:17 : , for cither horse , but was good considering the track. Although It was a race for gate receipts. It was evident that Robbhj P's owner was trying to land the big erid of It , and ho did have some ad vantage , as Robblo P Is an exceptionally strong horse , as game' as they make them and as ambitious as he Is game. In the second heat the beautiful Allx took the lead , and although Pyle drove his horse oft his feet he could not head her , and they finished In 2:15. : Allx took the next heat In 2:14 : , and then Jones claimed the race on the grounds that It was a three-heat event Instead of flvo. Pyle Insisted on five heats , and was sustained by the judges. Jones objected on the ground that Allx hail not been fitted for racing yet and because of the deplorable condition of the track. The mare Is the very apple of his eye , and ho would not Injure her for half of the state of Iowa. He finally agreed to start Allx again In answer to the demands ol the crowd. But he , was somewhat hot and told Pylo tlmt he would set the pace and not let htm get any closer than ho wanted him to. The start was'made , and Allx set out on that smooth , deceptive gait of iie 's which fools so many people , and although Hobble P made a gamcc fight and flnlsh he could not gain on , the ; marc , and hardly made a good pacemaker for her. But when It Is considered that there are five and one- fourth seconds difference between their records It must be , admitted that Robbie P made a good race , , and Is capable of making the best Ojf.'tho trotters hustle to show .him a clean pair of heels. The best time made in this race , was 2:14 : , but the half mlle was traveled " , Ir ) this heat in 1:05 : % * * * i v This race demonstrated that the lovers of turf sports In this vicinity want none but the best of racing , , end no contests be tween plow horses go ; In order to fill in the heats of the principal race , a field of 2:40 : trotters was started. Two heats were made In 2:47 : and 247Vi. ; and then the crowd began guying the drivers and every one else connected with the race , shouting derisively every time they scored. The rea son of this was that there was a good deal of false pretending In announcing this so- called meeting. The people had been led to believe that they were to witness a first-class card of racing , Instead of only the match between Allx and Robblo P. It Is admitted that these two alone would have drawn Just as big a crowd and then no ono would have been disappointed with the other races. And another thing the managers of Union park should see to , that Is the score card privilege. The card that is palmed off on the public Is an abomination and contains many Inexcusable mistakes. And the card Is not up to date at all , the names of the drivers being entirely omitted. As these cards cost about $7.50 to $8 per .thousand and are sold for $100 , which Is clear profit , the advertising paying for the first cost , It seems that the patrons should get better treatment from this source. * * * There Is some little talk of arranging a fall meeting of harness races at Union park. Such a meeting could undoubtedly be made a financial success and If held late enough all the crack trotters and pacers In the west , which are now campaigning on eastern tracks , could be Induced to stop over for the meeting on their way home for the winter season. But It Is just as well to warn the projectors now that they will make a failure and suffer a financial loss , besides Injuring the reputation of the track , unless they ar range a strictly first class meeting and do not attempt to palm off a lot of old skates and skins on the public as thoroughbreds. It has been demonstrated that good trotting and pacing races will bo liberally patronized hero , but track patrons draw the line on hippodromes. * Charley Williams , the man who gave Axtell and Allorton to the trotting world and who has enjoyed a meteoric career as a horseman , has about finished his new track at Galcsburg. III. Ho held a small meeting at the new course on July I , and had the satisfaction of drawing a big crowd. If Omaha had have "legged" a little harder Williams might have been Induced to come hero and recuperate his fortune. Whatever faults Williams may have , ho Is still the most remarkable turfman in the country , and when he guarantees a purse horsemen know that they will get their money. Al though ho made a fortune out of Axtell and Allcrton ho lost It , as many a wiser man has done , by trying to accomplish an Impossibility. William tried to build up a real city In Iowa. * * The Nebraska raw meetings scheduled for this season are as follows : Friend , August 7-U ; Edgar , August' 14-10 ; Superior , August 21-2.1 ; Nelson , August 28-30 ; Omaha , Sep tember 3-8 ; Geneva , September 4-C ; Lincoln , September 10-11 ; Sohuyler , September , 19- 22 ; Syracuse , September 25-23.

This horse was Imported from New Zealand six years ago at a , price of $21,000 and ho 1ms sired many promising youngsters , , who may bo heard from In a few seasons. The lovers of harness racing hear very lit tle about klto-shaped tracks and phenom enal records nowadays. Like any other fad It has died a natural death , and horsemen are turning their attention to the best meth ods for Improving regular oval courses. Among the new Innovations adopted this sea son Is the electric distance and wlro flags for timers , which are operated by the ofllclal starter ; and tha elevated watch towers at the time posts , In which the flagmen are locked until the races are over.

" "Harry , your excellency ; Harry Parker , may It please you. " "Yes , and ho has been convicted of grand larceny , and I am going to sentence him this morning , " said Judge Mooro. The stranger was heaving with sobs. "Spare him , your excellency ! Spare my only son ! He was such a nlco b-b-b-boy bao-hoo-hoo ! I haven't seen my unhappy boy for two whole years. Ho has been wayward when ho has been out of my care. Do have mercy on him , and I will bless you all my days. Harry will be grateful , too. Ho has never been In trouble before , your majcst your honor. "I understand that he has been In prison before , " said Judge Moore , who was a bit auspicious. "You hurt mo when you sny that , " raid the stranger with dignity. "If he has been In trouble before may your honor send him ta prison for life. " While this was going on Detective Mason , who had arrested Parker , entered the room. Ho remembered to have scon the ruddy stranger talking to Parker during the trial. "Aro you married ?

"Where are you employed ? " asked Judge Moore. "For business reasons I would prefer not to answer , " said the man. "I have been a respectable citizen since I came to this country. " A close cross-examination developed the name of ono man who lived In I'urlem who had employed Harry Parker's 'ather. "Mason , " said the judge to the detective , "go to Harlem and see what this man knows about Mr. Parker. " The heartbroken parent's sobs ceased sud denly. "Your honor , I I I will call again , " ho said , and out he went In n hurry. When Parker was arraigned for sentence Judge Moore asked him , "Is your father alive ? " "No ; ho died eight years ago. " Parker chuckled \vhcn the story of the broken-hearted parent was told to him. "If that man says he Is your father ho didn't tell the truth , eh ? " said Judge Mooro. "Of course he didn't , and lie's nothing but an old bungler anyway , " said Parker with disgust.

HUNTER'S QUAY ( Firth of Clyde ) , Jutr 7. In the race for the Queen's cup At tha regatta of the Royal Clyde Yacht club today the Britannia was again the winner. Sli went over the line almost Immediately after the gun was fired at 10:30 : a. m. , and at Cloch Point she had n slight lead , which she Increased ever the Vigilant , The course today was that of the Royal v Clydo Yacht club , the one sailed over nt the Mudhook Yacht club conteit on Thursday , In today's race , according to the official rat ing , the Vigilant having been measured yes terday , the American yacht nt 175 tons to the Britannia's 150 tons , allowed the prlnca of Wales' cutter three minutes. The Vigi lant allowed the Majorlo eighteen minutes. The starters were as follows : Vneht , Illir. ItntlnK. Onncr. Itnndlcnp , llrlliimiln..Cutter 152 I'rlnco ofVnlcs 3 mln , YlKltant..Sloop 175 Mi-Jars Gould Bcrnlch Sliirjorlo outer li mln. The Interest , of course , centered In tha Vigilant and the Britannia. The harbor presented a line spectacle , as the dull , cloudy early hours of the morning were suc ceeded by a glorious sunburst which en livened everything and everybody. During the morning a * light southerly breeze waa flowing and this benefited the Britannia. The breeze Increased as the tlmo approached , and when the start was made was blowing freshly down the channel. The smart and powerful looking Vigilant lay In Qourock bay until 9:15 : a. m , , when she loft her moorings and began crulslnrt about the firth until the tlmo for the start. The maneuvering for the start was a pretty sight. The Vigilant was luffing along in front of the line , whllo the Marjorlo and Britannia cruised about In the mouth of the loch. When they stayed to starboard In order to como down on the line , the Britan nia was pushing into the weather of the Marjorle and was a bowsprit ahead as the gun was fired. VIGILANT STARTED POORLY. The Britannia was over the line almost Immediately after the gun fired , closely fol lowed by the Marjorle. The Vigilant made a , bad start , being fully three-quarters of A minute behind the Britannia. This was ac counted for by the fact that the American yacht had less way on when she came about , . Amid rousing cheers and much steam whistling the three yachts bore away shorten on the starboard tack , and It was soon seen that the Vigilant was closing In on the lead ers and lying high up in the wind. The Britannia hod a short hitch about 200 yards out , and had to stand up on tha weather of the Vigilant as she drew on , and still had the weather gauge , the American yacht being two lengths behind. Captain Carter of the Britannia was today assisted by Captain O'Neill of the Ivprna , and the prince of Wales' cutter had on board sixteen picked men from the Ivorna , making a total of forty-six men to handla the yacht. The Vigilant carried a crow of forty-Dint men. The Vigilant and Britannia hold on to the starboard tack to the Cloch short with * out making a tack , the Britannia falling away to looward. When the racers cleared the Cloch lighthouse - house they met a slightly rnoro favorabl , wind , and the Britannia was not only polnfi Ing as high as the Vigilant , but she waft drawing ahead. When Hie yaghts ran Into more open water , the breeze wag breaking the sea Into whltecaps , and both the Britan nia and the Vigilant were hoollng over. The Vigilant , to everybody's sqrprlso ashore , np peared to bo falling behind. Experts said that she fore-reached very fast and that her centcrboard gripped her to windward In n very effective manner. On staying to fetch the SUelmorllo mark , the Britannia slightly Improved her lead. The heat down was n marvelous exhibition of seamanship upon the part of the captains of both tha American and English ynchttj. Both yachts came on the run toward Cloch , with spinnakers to starboard and jib-top sails and balloon foresails pulling splendidly , coming past the Weymss sldo In a true but softening wind. The Marjorlo was following 17 minutes astern. The Vigilant began closing up on th Britannia's stern on noarlng the Oloch light house , but after passing the lighthouse the Britannia again widened the gap between them , and the Vigilant was unable to cloM the breach. , MADE AN EXCITING FINISH. At Hunter quay there was a scene of In tense excitement at the flnlsh. Though the Vigilant was leading , the Britannia seemed to be gaining and Ib was thought she would pass the Vigilant. But wnen she could not pass and It could bo seen she had won od her allowance , the greatest enthusiasm pre vailed. Captain Hoff handled the Vigilant grandly In the run to Skolmorlle , but 10 | did not succeed In the severe task of enabling her to get a sufficient advantage to allow the yacht to pass the Britannia , as the latter kept the Vigilant safely weatherbowed. There was great excitement when th vessels wore abreast. The great question then was whether the Vigilant could sol home far enough In advance to ovorcomj the tlma allowance. The ( Vigilant drew away grandly , but the distance was lob short and the Britannia got the vordlols The time of the two yachts was as follows at the finish : Vigilant , 4 hours , 10 minute * , 37 seconds ; Britannia hours , 17 minutes , 42 seconds. The Britannia with her tlmi allowance of three minutes won by 1 mlnuto , 55 seconds.
