LINCOLN , Sept. S. ( Special Telegram to
The IIce.-The last game ot the season
played on the home grounds with the St.
Joe team was witnessed by ono of the
largest crowds of the season. It was any-
Ixwly's- game until the. beginning of the ninth
Inning , when the locals by terrific slugging
secured seven runs , after a chance had
been given to retire the side. Sullivan
mneared himself all over with glory , making
flvo putouts unassisted , two of these being
on a double play , which he executed very
neatly. He is credited with twenty putouts -
outs out of the twenty-seven , resulting from
the Inability of the visitors to knock tht
Imll outside of the diamond. He also se
cured four hits , a single , two doubles and n
three-bagger. His hitting was very timely ,
bringing In two men nt one time and three
nt another , and afterwards scoring himself ,
Or.e rank error marred his otherwise per
fect record. Pedroes secured the same bat
ting honors ns Sullivan nnd brought-
three men by a timely three-bagger. Uarnes
put up a great game In the box. but he
weakened a little In the fifth Inning , when
four hits were made , netting three runs ,

The meeting of the Nebraska Pactnff and
Trotting Horse Breeders' association at th ;
fair grounds during the past week was a
financial failure , which will bo felt for some
time and will probably cut sotne figure In
the contest for the pjrmanent location of
the state fair. The horsemen arc Inclined
to feel sere over the Indifferent attitude of
tli" people of Omaha and the surrounding
towns toward their meeting , and are not
only keenly disappointed but will have to
make Rood , out of their own pockets , a con
siderable deficiency. They have grounds for
complaint , It Is true , but there arc some
things to he considered which they may not
have- thought of. The Breeders' association
Is composed of the most prominent owners
and breeders of harness horses In the state.
They hold annual meetings , at which the
speed ot the different grades and breeds Is
tested for remunerative purses and records.
Nebraska has some famous slres.more famous
Imrness racers , and consequently lots of colts
that may soon be challenging the kings and
queens of the turf. Her horsemen are
known on all the eastern racing circuits
and the Chandler , Gould , Puxton , Brlggs
nnd other strings have contested in the
fastest classes. Yet with nil this In their
favor , there are no good mile tracks of rep
utation In the state , while Iowa , the rival
of Ntbraska for fast harness horses , hns u
half dozen tracks of record reputation. The
Omaha meeting was ns goml as the average
state breeders' meeting- , but at no time
was there a larxe enough attendance to
pay the purses for that day. Among the
things that kept the crowds awny wns
that the racing was conducted on a half
mile truck , ami not a remarkably fast one
al that. Besides this , there were counter
attractions In the shape of base ball , and
so many evening amusements that people
of moderate means could not take them nil
In. This has also been a season of turf
sensations , records of nil kinds have beun
broken , and neither fast time nor good
records can be made' on half mile courses.
The breeders' meeting not n success In all
except finance ; " , and It seems as If their
meeting wns held under the most unfavor
able circumstances , which was the fault
of no particular person. Let the breeders'
association establish a. fast mile track In
this city and It Is a safe prediction that
financial stringencies In Its affairs will be
it rare exception. Omaha should not be
made to shoulder all the blame for their
ill success this time.

The stallion Conqueror , 2:15'4 : , by Egotist ,
owned by William A. Paxton , Jr. , of this
city , has been sent home to the Keystone
breeding and training farm , and he will
be driven In no moro races this season.
The admirersof Conqueror will learn with
regret that he la ; mirroring from a badly
sprained left hind \fK. \ which has laid him
otf the track , ' and ' ho may not enter tha
speed lists again. Air. Paxton does not
think the Injury a .permanent . one , and If
It Is it will only jnjure the horse as a racer.
Ab Fulloger hits Charge of Paxton's string
and has made fifteen starts In races nt the
meetings nt Joliet , Grand Ilaplds , Chicago ,
Independence nnd Indlnnnpolis , He has
won portions of fourteen of the purses , but
did not get anything In the odd race. The
string- showing up well and earning more
than feed money , something that lots of
them are not doing iln this season of record
smashing. Plippoirt , his 2-year-old pacer ,
made u race record of 2:2114 : In the third
heat In the mull at Indianapolis last week.
Coswlng , his yearling trotter , won a race
and record at Grand Ruplils by traveling
the mile In 2:4 : ? ' early In the season , and
Two Strikes has won I wo second nnd one
fourth moneyM In. the 2:13 : class pacing
events. At IndlanapoJIs Two Strikes drove
Fldol under the" Wire In a recent race In
2:10 : > i and lost the'heat by a neck's length.
Tills week Mr. Pnxtun made a valuable ad
dition to his string , purchasing MIna Me
dium , 2:11 : , by Rlloy Medium , of J , S. Rlcker
of Emporia , Kan. , for 13,000. This animal Is
7 years old and Is a tried and true cam
paigner. She recently won the second ,
fourth and llfth heats In the 2:13 : class trot
at Indianapolis , beating Senator A and
Alamlto. After the races there on Thurs
day Mr. Paxton traded Wootlnllah to Jo
seph Neagele for Lady Arlington , a good
3-year-old In the 2W class , Ho expects
Two Strikes to bring a. new record home
with him ut the close of this season.

Clinton Brlggs hns given his string : of
horses over to the care of Chandler , the
well known driver and trainer , who has
Barondale , one of Baron Wllkcs' best get ,
In his stringMr. . Brlggs has not had good
luck with his horses this season , and after
winning the Minneapolis two-mile derby nnd
a few minor events early In the season his
horses have not made the showing expected
of them. Alamlto , a fast animal , too , has
been beaten twice recently In races In
which he should have won. But such
things are among the misfortunes of turf
men , and better things may happen before
the closing of th ? racing season.
Turfmen were treated to a. grand sensa
tion on Thursday afternoon of the pasl
week , when Robert J nnd Joe Patchon
made their world-beating performance.
Ever since Mascot. Flvlng Jib and Nancy
Hanks made a mark of 2:04 : each , last yeat
horsemen have been aiming to beat It , and
now two of them have accomplished the
feat in a race , which will ga down In turf
history an one of the grandest of names ;
races. The record has been reduced on
and a half seconds , and the two-minute
mark Is now In sight. Even since the open
ing of the season there has been greaf
rivalry between Geers. driver of Robert J ,
and Curry , driver of Joe Patchcn , nnd twc
match races have occurred between tin
little world-beating eeUilng and the famous
stallion. The first "ono took place a fe\\
weeks ago , and-Joe Patchen performed Ir
such a manner that he was beaten to
standstill. He wau beaten In the last race ,
but he made such a gallant effort thai
horsemen express genuine regret tlat | jol
could not have won one ot the heats n :
order to get a stallion record. He traveled
the second mile In 2:02 % . pushing Robert .1
under the wire In 2:02V4 : , but this time can
not be made Into a "record , " although 11
Is the fastest ever made by any stallloi
In the world. It was u good race and biok <
all pacing records , for time , for fostenl
first , second nnd third heats and for tin
fastest average heats. Also for the liuitesi
quarter mile In a race. The time was
2OS % , 2:02V4 : , 2:01 : , averaging V.03 % for UK
three heats. This race has made boll
horses famous and will Increase Joe Patch
en's value us a sire , It scams too bai
that Robert J Is not n atnlllon. On tin
same date Allx went an exhibition mile It
2:01 : } ; , and In a short lime she will faci
the starter for a go agulnst the world'i
record of 2:04 : for trotters.
