IIALMA'S ' nOLLOff VICTORY
Hanover's Son Wins the Twenty-Tirst Ken

LITTLE MORE THAN AN fXERCISE \LLOP \
July I'onr Startrri In HID Climlc Kvont

lo Wire.
LOUISVILLE , May C. Fair ladles waved
heir handkerchief. ' and sturdy men Joined
n the lusty cheer that greeted the son of a
great sire when Halma passed under the
vlre a winner of the twenty-first Kentucky
Derby this afternoon. Such rejuvenated ac-
Ivlty anJ enthusiasm was never before wit
nessed on a race course , for the historic
Churchill Downs presented a scene that Will
go down to posterity.
The Kentucky Derby Is an event to which all
Kentncklans look forward with a Just pride ,
and this afterroon the New Louisville Jockey
club established a new era In the history
of racing In Kentucky , the homo of the thor
oughbred. It was a grand victory , too , for
tryan McClelland's entry. That Ken-
ucklans have not lost their enthusiasm for
ho horse was evidenced by the crowd that
thronged the superb stand , betting ring and
every other available- place to sec the classic
event. It will never bo known Just how many
> alr of eyes centered upon Illtlo "Soup" Per-
clns when he gulled Halma under the wire
an easy winner , but the most conservative
place the number nt 23,000. Ilefore tha ar
rival of noon hour the Journey of the thou
sands to Churchill Downs began. The boule
vard leading to the course was crowded with
vehicles of every description from the anti
quated two-wheel conveyance to the more
modern English cart. All the city buildings
and many of the larger establishments gave
a half holiday to their clerks and all went to
sec the Kentucky Derby.
NOTABLE- PACK AT THE PARK.
At the Downs there was a scene never be
fore witnessed in the history of that grand
old course. The magnificent new stand , which
lias a seating capacity of ne-arly 10,000 , was
Inadequate to hold the vast throng. Every
place of vantage about the stands , the pad
dock and the stables waa occupleJ , while In
and about the betting stnnd It was one solid
miss of humanity. From the tlmo the first
odds were chalked on the board until the
Hag fell In the closing event men Jostled
against each other and essaye-l to elbow their
way through the throng In their effort to
place their money , but the fifteen bookies
who were there to accommodate the public
couU not handle more than one-half the
money.
Halma won the Derby as he pleased , and
not once did Perkins find It necessary to use
the rawhide , for the colt assumed the lead
from the very fall of the flag and set the
pace to the finish. Ho was not urged a foot
of the route , and when he passed the stand
for the last time there was four good lengths
of daylight between the son of Hanover and
the harJ ridde-n Basso , who was second.
There was enthusiasm when the first two
events were run , but when the winners were
frosted In the second race there was aug
mented activity , for the Kentucky Derby
would soon bo a thing of the past. The sound
of the saddling bell had hardly died away
before Curator , with Overton up , came out
of the paddock aud cantered around In front
of the stand. The llashford Manor colt was
applauded , but with the appearance o [ Lojure-
ate It Increased , anJ when Halma , with Per
kins up , and Basso , with Martin astride , pa
raded in front of the vas > t crowd It gave
vent to its approval with ono long , continued
cheer that lasted almost until the candidates
had reached the half mile pole , where Starter
Pettlnglll , flag in hand , awaited them.
OUDSON THE BEST OFFERED.
While thu thousands were vagerly- watching
the horses that were to contest for the grand
event all was activity In the betting ring. If
10,000 people endeavored to place a bet on
the first two races everybody wanted to
back their choice In the Kantucky Drby ,
and the bookmakers found It an arduous
task to handle half the bills that were
shoved at them. Halma , on the performanc ? ,
was entitled to ba favorite , and he was , In
the judgment of both the spectators and
bookies , for the first odds posted were 2 to
5. Even at these prohibitive odds there was
a rush to plac ? money on him , and when
the flag went down the beat obtainable was
1 to 3 , while several books had rubbed him
off the board. Hasso was not without friends ,
for early In the day the Information was
freely circulated that he was the winner ,
and loads cf money went on him at 4 to 1
to win and 3 to 5 for the place , but not once
did the cdds change after they had been
posted. Laureate , too , had a big following at
0 to 2 and 4 to 5 for place , while Curator at
15 to 1 wan not altogether friendless.
At 3:55 : all eyes were turned toward the
half mile pole , for there the four Derby
candidates awaited the order to start on
the Journey which was to make one famous.
They lined up and In the first attempt were
sent away will bunched , with Halma , the
favorite , showing In front by a neck , Ilasso
j
second , Laureate third and C'utator last.
There . was not a length's difference , however ,
between the four hcraes. Martin wanted to
save Uasso for the final struggle , and as
they rounded the first turn he drew the
Falsetto cot ! up and at the quarter was last ,
but he took good cafe that the distance
* -hlch separated him from the black colt ,
Halma , did not become too great. Halma had
the lead by a head from Curator , who had
moved up to second , while Laureate was third
and halt a length back.
GLAD TO SEE HALMA WIN.
A mighty shout went up In the stands as
Halma passed under the wire for the first
time with little Perkins tugging at the reins.
Laureate was second and Curator third , while
Basso was still last. Halma and Laureate
went neck and neck around the lower turn
and when they reached the three-quarters
Perkins' mount was leading by a head , with
Laureate still alter him and Curator a head
in front of Basso.
"Basso has quit" was the cry that pasasd
from Up to Up and the Falsetto colt was in
deed showing signs of fatigue , but when
they had passed the mile Martin began rid
ing , and when they showed In the stretch
for the final run Basx3 was second.
"Diaso wins" was shouted almost simul
taneously from a thousand or moro throats
as Martin , riding wuh might and nnin and
plying ths whip vigorously , went after
Halma , who apparently was running with the
same case as when he went by the stand for
the first time. The bay colt , however , had
run his racs and although Martin rode him
to the very finish the best he could do waste
to finish four lengths behind Halma , with
Laureate third , the same distance from
Basso , and Curator las ! by five- lengths from
Laureate. It was a hollow victory for
Hnlma nnd tDto 'great con of Hanover landed
the coveted tpUfcn without a itruKgle.
There werel > nbt'sensational ' flnlihes and but
three favorltw. t'otentale. Hnlma and Cat-

THEY QUARRELED ABOUI IT
I'ollco Oonnl nnd Wntor Comptny Dlftor
on the KnielrncT of U'iitt < r Hydnititn.
The Fire and Police commissioners wran
gled with the representatives of the Amer
ican Water Works company last night. It
lasted over two hours , and was caused by the
dispute over the condition ot the fire hydrant
at Twenty-second and Davenport streets at
the time of the recent fire , when It Is claimed
four men were unable to turn the water on
after the connections had been made. The
only result obtained at that time was the
breaking of the wrench. .
The superintendent of the American Water
Works company , Mr. Hunt , had men at the
meeting to prove that tha hydrant was In
good working order the next day after the
lire , and that one man was able lo open the
hydrant without much difficulty. The hy
drant was afterward taken up and found to
be In good working order , and In the opinion
of the men employed by the company It was
the , fault of the firemen who , In trying to
turn ' on the water , had turned the wrong
way. This was disputed very emphatically
by Chief Hedell , who stated that he. In com
pany with ono of the firemen , had 'rled the
hydrant after the fire had been extinguished ,
and found It Impossible to open It. lie had
also tried It the next day with the same re
sult. Superintendent Hunt claimed that
Hedell was not fair with the company and
had given It the worst of It In nuny of his
reports , which had given rise to the opinion
that the entire plant was worthless to the
citizens and much of It should bo condemned.
This the chief denied , but took the oppor
tunity to express himself on the subject nnd
stated that much of the property should be
condemned and the superintendent along
with It.
Mayor Bemls then took a turn at the water
works company and said that In his opinion
the plant was not being run In the manner In
which It should be , and directly against the
Interests of the people who were Its patrons.
"There arc 1.000 hydrants In this city , " said
the mayor , "which the city is paying rent for
unjustly , and which , perhaps , are not In good
condition as the contract calls for , yet the
company gets nearly $30.000 rental from the
city. I have had three years of It , and I am
of the opinion It Is an outrage. The city has
had to Incur an additional expense of be
tween $30,000 and $40.000 per year In supply
ing fire protection , all en account of the poor
pressure furnished by the water works com
pany. "
In answer to a question put to him by the
mayor , Mr. Hunt stated that the company
had already laid about two miles of twelve-
Inch water mains this year , and had contem
plated laying five miles of twenty-four Inch
plpo and between two and three miles of
twelve-Inch pipe , but owing to the manner In
which the company had been treated by the
city the contract for the pipe had been can
celed and the company had laid all the ma'ns '
that It intended to this year and would not
lay any moro until the city paid the company
what It owned and what Justly belonged to It.
The members of the board expressed them
selves as being In favor of arranging for the
Inspecllon of the water hydrants at least once
a month so that they could be depended
upon In case of a lire. Mr. Hunt , on behalf
of the company he represented , offered to fur
nish one man to make the Inspection and
also a horse and buggy In case the board ar
ranged lo have a man accompany the em
ploye of the company and see that the In
spection waa prcperly made and that the
hydrants were all In good condition. The
board empowered the chief to appoint one of
his men to make the tour of Inspection as
proposed by Mr. Hunt and suggested that
ths work be begun as soon as possible.
Tell your friends to try Dr. Price's Baking
Powder. Its purity and strength will "do
the rest. "
AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Secretary .Morton' * Hi-ply to I.lvn Stock
I'xi-li'ilicii Will 1 ! " Ainwpwf.
About ten days ago the South Omaha Lho
Stock excahuge became tired nl the work
of the recently appointed luspsctirs , and In
special session adopzM unanimously a set
of resolutions censuring Secretary Morton and
the Inspectors appointed. At the regular
meeting of the exchange yesterday after-ior-n
the following reply was read from Secretary
Morton :
WASHINGTON , D. C. . Aorll 27 , 18T.-A.
L. Ixtt. I2sq. , Secretary South Omaha Live
Stock Exchange , South Omaha , Nob. : Sir
I am In receipt of your note jf the 22d lust. ,
enclosing resolution adopted by the South
Omaha Live Stock exchange of that diy ,
concerning Inspection ut the sUc * yards In
your city. It Is alleged In the preamble to
these resolutions that there lie dally con
troversies arising In the yards benvtn the
Inspectors appointed by the Agricultural de
partment and the various dealers ensnpcd
In handling live stock , and that It Is be
lieved much of the trouble Is occ.is'oned by
the Incompetency of the Inspectors ap
pointed throuih ; political Influence and not
on account of their Illness for th ? po.-dtlon.
It Is not a correct statement that Inspectors
specters or others engaged In Ins-pK-tlnc at
South Omaha have been appointed through
political Inllucnce , nnd not on account of
their Illness for the position. All of these
men have been appointed for their suppo od
competency nnd they were either known l > s-
mo to be experienced cr they have bcn
recommended to me by men upon whose
judgment I rely.
The Inspectors are now In a classified serv
ice , und no one can be appointed to these
positions unless he has passed the civil
service examination and | jen certified to
this department by the Civd Service com
mission as competent.
I have the power , however. to
remove Inspectors for Inc-ompetency ,
and If the exchange will present
evidence proving that any Inspector
on the force at South Omaha Is Incompe
tent I will remove him ami appoint some
one certified by the Civil Service commis
sion to 1111 his ulaco. Very respectfully ,
J. STERLING MOUTON. Secretary.
The communication was discussed at length
and finally a commltlcs of three , consisting
of A. B. Waggoner , J. Fltz Itobsrts and
Mike Murphy , was appointed to draft a re
ply to the secretary of agriculture. The ex
change denied that Mr. Morton told the ex
act truth In his reply , and the answer of the
committee Is expected to be a twister. Mem-
hers of the exchange claim lhat not one
of the present Inspectors knows a cow from
a barn , and someof the commission men
make worse statements than that.

To the President of the Hoard of Educn-

to offer my resignation on April 1. From

to allow me to endure much strain upon
my nervous system until my condition
should bo established by n longer rest.
In view , also , of the demand upon the
members of the board for service at the
end of the school yar , I am moved to
make the offer of my resignation and to
urge It upon the board for acceptance. It
Is with sincere and deep regtct that t con

LOWER ELECTED FOR VACANCY.
George I' . Lower of the Fifth ward waa
elected to fill the vacancy on the board
caused by the resignation of Dr. Duryea.
This was not accomplished without a strug
gle , and It was net until the twenty-sixth
ballot that Mr. Lower secured the eight votes
necessary to elect.
The task of filling the vacancy was at
once begun , the first ballot resulting as fol
lows : Charles Huntlngton , 3 ; J. U. Melltl ? ,
3 ; Lower. 4 ; Mrs. Ella W. Peattle , 2 ; C. 0.
Lobeclc , 1 ; blank , I. A dozen ballots showed
no material cbange , and It became evident
that It was a fight to a finish between Lower ,
Huntlngton and Melkle. On the thir
teenth ballot Lower secured his fifth vote
and on the next Melkle followed suit. On
the twenty-third Lower only needed ono vote
to elect , and on the twenty-sixth It came
Into line , and he was declared elected. His
oath of olllco was at once Illed and the board
took a recess of five minutes In which to
proffer congratulations.
Huntlngton only showed four votes , but
these stayed by him to too end. Mrs. Peat-
tlo received one vote until the .twenty-second
ballot , when It went to Iluntlngton. Prof.
Glllesplc received a vote or two during the
balloting , as did also Dr. S. K. Spalding.
HIGH SCHOOL REORGANIZATION.
The board went Into committee of the
whole , with Vica President Thomas In the
chair , to consider the committee report relative
to the reorganization of the High school. This
had been presented at the previous meeting ,
but last night the committee added a sup
plementary report , which contemplated a ma
terial departure from the plan previously
submitted. The new Idea provided for a second
end assistant principal and for a scale of
salaries ranging- from $1.100 to $1GOO for the
heads cf departments , and from $700 to $1,100
for subordinate teachers.
Prof. Lewis was called on to explain what
would bo accomplished by the reorganization.
Ho said that under the present system the
entire curriculum was under the supervision
of the prlnlcpal. The courses of study were
so varied that it was practically Impossible
for ono man to keep In touch with such a
wide range of subjects. The new plan would
divide the \\ork of supervision and allow the
head of each department to become a spe
cialist and do more efficient work. He and
Superintendent Marble united In recommend
ing the adoption of the entire report of the
committee , and after some further i3lncusslon
such action was taken.
The following census enumerators were ap
pointed to take the school census for the cur
rent year. First ward , J. C. Kenworthy , J.
H. Jlcinsky ; Second ward , II. A. Wheeless ,
John Yerak ; Third ward , O. 11. Hlcketts , C.

begun May 20.
It was decided that the schools should close
for the year Friday , May 31.
