As I Intimated once before , Individuality Is a great factor In base hall , as well as In nil other pursuits of life. For Instance , on Saturday , when , meta phorically speaking , all Lincoln was stand- Ins on Its head , celebrating with wild hur rahs , stupendous yells , the waving of hats and Incendiary oratory , the defeat of the gallant Hourkcs , Papa was concocting a way for revenge when ho once got Thomas Jefferson Hlckcy's pumpkin huskers off tholr own cow jard promontory. And he hit upon a wise plan , and that was to commence right at the start and pound the eternal life out of them , then kick them out Into the dusty highway and tell them to hoof It homo and get the rest of their wheat In before a storm came. And Pa carried out his plan , and , there fore , I do not hesitate to- say that he has moro brain than any man tiat "you or I can mention. Then there Is Lily Langtry Langsford , with his Btrawbt-ry short cake face and trained feetlets ; Captain McVey and his voice , Kid Secry and his log , Pcdrocs and his Sandowo arm , and Wlnflold Scott Camp and his devious curves. I grant that each , of these men Is peculiar In his personality , In his physical appearance , but that Is not what I mean when I speak of individuality as a great factor In the great game of base ball. CONCERNING MR. EBRIGHT. Physically speaking , no true eye would pass Buck Ebrlght without observing him. Ho Is under ordinary slu , Inclined to mouth , and extremely unreserved In man ner , yet ho has a unique personality. His head Is covered with a growth of moss , fast growing gray with age. His Jaw Is full 'and rugged and always on the move. He has a rotten eye , a tin car , and a shelving forehead. ills face Is always dirty , and yet there. Is something In his general ap pearance that challenges attention. When Buck was a boy he had no moro idea that some day he would onn Lincoln than an egg has that It will some day be cock of the walk. So far as I know , Buck has always been self-reliant , self-helpful , and never faltering In his covotlon to Buck. From an humble country boy he developed Into the cliltf clerk In a livery stable , and although ono brief year ago he wasn't known outside of Thomas Jefferson Hlckey's thlrtecn-acre farm , today ho Is known wherever the English language Is spoken In Lincoln. Whan a mere lad Buck knew perfectly well that ho had to earn his own living. Ills father perished at sea on the sumo boat with Casablanca. Ho entered base ball , but under a cloud. All his rel ative wanted him to get into a brick jard. I know nothing and care less for the motive which Induced Buck to abjure the advlco of his friends and seek fa mo In the field of athletics. It Is stilHcicnt to know that ho saw fit to do as he did , and with the rest vvo have no concern whatever. But Pa made him sorry yesterday that ho did not heed his friends' advice. Pa's Individuality , thus you see , is very great. SERJFS 8. The Book of the Builders HISTORY OFTHE. . WORLD'S FAIR I ! ? I * VRY * ? ) Burn/jam MEN j , Chief of Construction , WHO J < ? AND F. D.

Many people regard Buck M very much of n dub , but In Lincoln they think him to ha the only man who can put Omaha on the hog train. Ho told them ho could and they believed him. Hut the ghost of yes terday linngs over htm now , and with axes In their hands the whole town will bo at the depot at noon today to welcome him home. It atrlkra mo ho will bo led or forced Into an explanation of his conduct up here yesterday afternoon. They have not yet recovered from thcsr surprise at his audacity nnd sagacity In whaling I'npa I''r I ilny nnd Saturday. Now they think It was his sublimity of gall alone , and they will unanimously demand satisfaction when they get him back upon the farm today. It would ho a shame If the good people of Lincoln should burn Duck nt the stake. Hut even such an atrocity would not sur- prlso me they love not Omaha so much. Hut let us see how Pa's Individuality has lessened Buck's chances for a life lease on the stnto capital. SOMi : INSIGNIFICANT DBTAILS. There was a tremendous jam at the park , ono of the largest congregitlons ot the year. They all knew that Ilm-k was her nml they were anxious to witness him open ills face once moro and break loose on the velvety sward. Hut ho kept the big crowd Waiting until 4.30 o'clock before the gnmo could be cattail. Tour of hta hired hands hnd to walk here , as IJuck was short Jus BO many fnres , and the conductor refuser to start a tab. Not liking young Mr. Secry'a looks , Ileddy Dovcreaux presented htm with mllcago to first In the opening Inning. Then Langs < ford surrounded the plate. He lifted hh oft foot and swelled up until ho was nearly ns largo as Dave Uowe. Then he basted the Kphcro for a bag , nnd Seery loped to second. Hutch's neat sacrifice advanced both , and Captain Mao screwed his bat Into the ball and Seery escaped. Tint broke the Ice , but It wns the only break In that round. Fear flew out to Jim Corbett nnd I'a refused to carry him self to first without help. The farmers duplicated this work. Tommy McCarthy walked , went to third on Hughes' swat , and crossed the can on Speer'a expiration from Paddy Boyle to Captain Mac. John L. Sullivan toyed with-the summer zephyrs , Jim Corbett made a hit , but Buck wns switched off at first by a quick pickup and clean throw of the Lily's. From tnls on out It was Just as easy as the Itch for the Rourke family. They walked up and swatted this pitcher and that with a nonchalance and abandon that made Buck cavort ami caracole about the HeUf llko a monkey with the toothache. Score after score was piled up until they almost reached the eaves of the grand stand , and thu crowd began to disperse for fear they might topple over and hurt some one. In the Interim every scholar knows what an Interim Is aged and flecrcplt hen fruit was ladclcd out to Buck with a lavish hand , and In his mad passion he bit ort ono of his thumbs , ran a Knothole in his eye , and spit up a lung In his frenzied exertions to check the tidal wave thajt was engulfing him. 'Way long In the seventh inning , when the Uourkes' tongues were hanging out from running bases , the clodhoppers managed to con I'a out ot three sickly little tallies. WHEN BUCK MADH THC JOURNEY. In the start Wlnfield Scott , who pitched a game worthy ot an extra edition and a colored supplement , in disbursing the balls happened to stick one into Duck's ribs. Ho went to first. The Gallic rotator hit ono hard , but Latigy tore 1t out of the sky and fired It over to little WillieMcVey , but Buck plowed on down to second , biting huge fragments nt scrap iron out of the at mosphere as ho moved along. Woody's club got In the way ot one of Wlnllcld's straights , and with a sharp cry ot Joy Buck clambered homo like a rhinoceros with tubeicular consumption. On Piggy's drive to Boyle , Wood gave up his fair young life , then McCarthy and Hughes made scratch hits In succession , and three tallies were being stroked and cnressed by Thomas Jelterson Hlckey on the bench. Speer hit a high ono out Into the blue vault over Pedroos , and of course was wlth- diavvn from circulation. But when Pa came right back , with all the grace and beauty of golden sandaled Hermes , nnd mangled and lacerated Colonel Davoreaux until he resembled a big chunk of quaking liver , both Thomas Jefferson and Buckerlno passed Into a semi-conscious state , where everything seemed llko a float ing vision of bliss. The nerves of their bodies were numbed , and their excited , overwrought brains became quiet and peace ful. Papa had only made seven runs. When the battle was finally over and the score stood 20 to G In favor of Pa , Buck turned sadly to Thomas JelTorson HlcUey , and clasping his honest , toil-worn hand , cried In a voice choked with tears and corn husks : "After all , Tom , a man's best friend's his mother.

BUSY MEASURING THE JIEN I"r English People faking Great Interest in Iho Ojcford-Yn'd ' Athletic Contest.

LONDON , July 1C. There Is without doubt greater Interest being shown In toJay's contest - test between tlio Oxford ami Yiilo Athletic teams than was over shown In any previous gatherings of athletes In Qrc.it Britain. When the contest was first proposed hero , little Interest was taken In It by the public , but snlco the arrival of the Yale team , curi osity has grown until everybody who tal.es note ot coilego contest ) ! Is on the qullvo of expectation. The Interest In this contest overshadows for the tlmo being that taken In other sports , not oven excepting the Brlt- annla-Vlgllant race. It Is thought the mis haps that have befallen the contestants dur ing their practice Is likely to modify what would have been a very high standard of re sults. Nevertheless a grand exhibition Is anticipated. All the details of the contest have now been settled and the order of th program fixed , but as ytt It Is kept secret. 'Ilio newspapers have devoted much spue , to articles on the condition and perform anees of the athletes , and this morning the ; publish long preliminary notices of the con test. The Times , giving Its final conclusions says Fryo of Oxford has Jumped twenty three feet In practice , and this may reduci the length of his Jump today. Sheldon o Yale should , the Times thinks , Jump twenty three feet In spite of his wrenched ankle Swanwlck of Oxford also Injured his heel and this may handicap him the high jump Still ho 1ms cleared ilvo feet , ten and 0110 quarter Inches , and ho Is certainly superlo ; In form to Cady. Fry of Oxford did 101 yards In ten and one-fifth seconds In 1S93 and the practice of the Yale men affoids ni ground for supposing either of the Yale mcr In this event will run the distance in les ; time. If Sanford of Yale Is really unsound , tin. result of the quarter mile- dash will probably be between Jordan of Oxford and Pond o Yale. On paper the mile run seems a cer talnty for Oxford , as Greenhow's best tlmi Is 4:223-5. : It Is difficult to come to a con elusion about the half mile event. Shouk this bo decided before the mile race , ani Pond stands , Woodhull will alone represent America. If Greenhow can take part In botli races so as to do himself full Justice , that ol them lie race should be the most exciting contest of the day. In the hurdles boll : teams claim almost equal time. The bes tlmo of Oakley of Oxford Is 0:103-5. : Tin conditions will differ from the America : system , as Instead of a cinder track and loose hurdles there will be a grass course and fixed obstacles. Judging from the prac tlce of both teams the Yale men seem to be quicker and morBraiithe than the English men , especially dn tlio first of the course. On the other hand -tho Oxfords are better between the hurdles nnd arc practiced more In running the hvhole number of hurdles Instead of a few as < lld the Americans. Most people predict tnib 'Yftlo men will be easy victors , but many good judges would not be surprised to see Oxford win. Ilegardlng the ohammer and weight , Yale Is represented by such giants that Oxford appears to have 'no real chance , the Ameri cans doing forty-two feet In puttln the shot Mallng's best performance is thirty-sever , feet last week. Robertson's biggest throw of the hammer is 113 feet , the hammer having a handle tllree'and a half feet long. The stewards for Oxford will be Messrs. Jackson and SheSfmah , and for Yale Slier- rill and VanlngenI * The Sporting L'lfe .predicts Jordan ot Ox ford will win tho"100 yards dash and quarter mlle events ; SwanrnicK the high jump ; Wood- hull the half mile ; Grcenhowo the mile Fry the long jump , and Carey the hurdles. HIcKok and Brown , it sajs , are both easily ahead of the Englishmen on weight throwing. They will both beat Robinson In tin owing the hammer. Lord Londesboro , president of the club on the grounds of which the contest will be held , has Invited Hon. T. F. Dayard , Mrs. Bayard , the duke and ducheaa of Abcrcorn , the duke and ducJiess of Uuccleuch , Rt. lion , A. J.

Quite a sensation was created here today In the First Presbyterian church when Marvin Hugliltt , president of the Chicago & Northwestern Knllway com pany , nroso nnd made n vigorous reply tea a statement nyido by Prof , llcmls In his ad dress on the strllio and Us lesson. Prof. llcmls had said In part If the railroads cx pec their men to be law -abiding , they must sot the example. "I do not attempt to Justify the strikers , " said he , "In their boycott of railroads , bu railroads themselves not long ago placed an offending railroad under the ban nnd refused to honor tickets or trans port freight ot that road. Such boycotts nro no moro to bo justlllcd than those of the strikers. Let here bo some equality In these things. " At this point , much to the surprise of the congregation. Mr. Hughltt left his seat and took a stand Immediately lu front of Prof Bemls. As soon as the last words of the benediction had been uttered , he made a vigorous reply to the professor's statement and demanded an Instance of a bojcott In stituted by the railroads. Mr. Bern Is replied Instances were only too numerous , whcro railroads had asso ciated to rcfuso to honor tickets or trans port freight over some offending line. "Hut that Is not a boycott , " said Mr. Hughltt. Prof. Bcmls replied that If It waa not a boycott , ho was willing to let the matter rest. After a few remarks by Mr. Hughltt the matter was dropped.

Military authorities appear to be oxliaut- Ing every resource that will add to the rapidity of communication between the field of battle and the commanding officer. For a long time the telegraph was mainly re lied on for the Instant transmission of In telligence , and then the telephone was brought Into active use. It has been re cently seriously proposed that nlds-de-camp and other canlers of Information In tlmo of war should bo taught ( shorthand. In order to write down Important communications with all possible speed , and the latest move In this direction is the Introduction of the typewriter oni the scene of military opera tions. One of the novel features of a recent military tournament In England was the use of a typewriter on the battlefield for the purpose of recording messages from sig nalers. It Is stated that the typewriter operator was also an expert cyclist , who had his Hemlnston mounted on the handles of his machine. Hiding In and out among ( he horses and gun carriages , which he did with out the slightest mishap , whenever ho came to a standstill ho instantly braced up the cycle by a handy contrivance and pounded away at the typewriter while In the sadddle.

Numer ous other bruises wcro made on his head and ho nearly bled to death before the potlco suigoou could reach tlio station. Both men wore locked up , and Qromclln charged with dcndly assault. The trouble was occasioned by Oromellu's Jealousy. According to the stories of all the Interested parties It was learned that ho had been payhig attention to illss Kramer for the past icven months. During thin tlmo they became engaged to bo mcrrled. On July 4 iiho went to Ida Grove , In. , to visit her patents. By strange colncldonco llruner went to the same town to visit his brother , who Is a merchant. Wlillo Miss Kramer was at home she told her mother of her engagement to Qromoiln nnd showed her a picture of the man. Thnt settled his fate. As soon ns Miss Kramer's mother saw the picture she offered strong objections to the approaching nuptials , mid , llko a dutiful daughter , Johanna promised to break off her relations with the clerk In the liquor store. Up to this time she and Brunor had never met , but they happened to return on the same train , nnd as she had n largo number of bundles to carry he kindly offered his assistance , which was accepted and the two became acquainted. On her icturn to Omaha Miss Kramer told Giomclln that she would not marry him , a It wns against her mother's wishes. Thla made him very angry and ho has threatened to choke her , so she says. Last night as Bruner was passing Miss Kr.uncr'b homo she saw him and liivltod him In. Shortly afterward , in company with her joimger sister , they began playing cards. About that time Gromelln came , and looking In from the street ho saw the party sitting at the table. Ho went to the door nnd wns In vited In. On beholding the rather good lookIng - Ing stranger he thought ho had dlsonerod the cause of the breaking of the cngngo- ment. In on Instant his Jealous anger boiled over and stepping to the fence ho toro off a heavy picket nnd before any ono wis aware of his Intentions ho hnd attacked Bruner. Bruner managed to grapple with Gromelln and threw him to the floor , holding him until OHicers Curry and Uollard , who were a short distance away , could rome to his assistance. At the station neither of the men would talk much about the affair , but Gromelln said : "I like dot girl , but I dond llko dot feller placing cards mil her. " Miss Kiamer talked freely about the trouble and snld thnt she was done with Gromelln forever , and had told him so , but he persisted in callnlg and was so savage that she was getting afraid that ho might assault her. She said that she nnd Brunor were only chance ncqualntanccs , having rel atives In the same town. MiiHliiy at Coiirtlind An Immense crowd waa nt Courtland beach jesterday.
