There wan a warm time out at the Charles
Ctrcct park ycHtudny afternoon , despite the
froaty tcinptrnture ot the atmosphere.
It wns a double header , ami , morc's the
joy , Omaha won It all.
The crowd that was on hand to share In
the riotous tumult , too , was by far the larg
est Mild moi't ' enthusiastic that has yet ns-
fiemhle'l on tliosc fntnoita grounds. As a
coripiienc | your Uncle D.xve and Chrls-
toptcr Von der Ada McVIttle are wearing
milieu this morning gorgeous enough to
nhltnvasli a warehouse with.
Tlie grandstand wns n concrete mass ot
frcr.tlc humanity , and the nleachTR swayed
threateningly bcnn.itd the weight of a bois
terous , happy and Insatiable mob.
Indeed , It was a great day.
It you enjoy excitement , It you delight
In the music of n boiler factory , If you revel
In watcdlng a big , strong mnn bite great
moutlifiils out of a bright May afternoon , if
It makes you glad to see one man climb
upon the thoulders of another man and ram
a lot of hot , rc.'tlcss , passionate language
Into Ills car , you should have seen Parisian
Hobby Carriithcrs when Mr. Wardo called
Mm out twice In suction on strikes and the
nnttiropoldal Colonel Devlnncy when Petlc
Lehman belted the ball over the barn and
old Hutch swept tdc bases with another of
the same sort.
Od , yes , there was a good deal to sec out
there Just about this time , and much more
to hear.
If you de-cm It a nubile pleasure to see
Mister Shaffer In the coachcr's box , gnawing
horseshoes and old oyster cans , In the ell-
mate and exhorting his playmates In a voice
tdat sounds Mice emptying a barrel ot garbage -
bage Into a sewer , another golden oppor-
lunlty In your life has glided away Into tde
yawning abyss of tlio ages.
If you arc acquainted with Grasshopper
Ulrlch and have seen him lean his fragile
form up against a quick Inshoot and then
swarm to first , you know what high so-
clcty la.
MR. CAimimiKns WAS A SIGHT.
If you were ever Introduced to Parisian
Robert , whose people arc all so wealthy that
do 1ms to play hall to get feed for his face ,
you can form some vague Idea of how lie
cantered up to Mr. Wardo In the fourth
Inning after he hnd called White out on a
throw trom Old Hutch to first , on which
Willie O'Brien rolled all over and around
the bag like a porpoise tn tdo trough ot the
sea , and curled his lip up over his occiput In
the most withering scorn.
If you have ever watched a half grown
calf endeavor to vomit up a bale of hay It
hod swallowed In an unguarde 1 moment , you
can Imagine how the coy Mr. Zelz looked
when do Informed Mr. Warde that he didn't
know a stolen base from a dead dog.
If you have never heard Sousa's band
cough up a gob ot Wagnerlan classics and
the Salvation army and Tug Wilson lecturIng -
Ing on the Jgnornnt foreigner all at the
same time , tdo history of how the Hutchln-
son family forever and eternally flabbergasted
tin ; Headlicadcd Woodpeckers from Jackson-
vllle must forever remain a scaled book.
The Omadogs hammered In two In tdo
second , one In the tdlrd , one In the fifth.
four In the sixth , seven In the eighth and
tour In the ninth.
That left the score standing , or sitting
down , I forget which. 19 to S.
Wasn't that grand ?
Nineteen to eight !
Fix those greasy dlcrog 'pdlcs firmly In
your illuy mind , tden call tde hired man
to bring you an axe and see what you can dc
for the plnno while your wife dumps the
kerosene can Into tdc kitchen stove.
Everybody das a perfect right to enjoj
himself on an occasion lko | this , so seize
a sledge hammer , get Into tde cdlim closcl
and do your worst.
After the last lick dad been struck It wiu
a rare ecstacy to watcd Uncle David as ht
staggered toward tdc club house under tdc
welgdt of a finllo ns big as a freight car
wdlle Algernon Ferdinand Devlnncy , td (
man with a painful face , wrapped dlmsel
up In dls oun glnomy tdougdts and htrodt
out ot the park Into tdo cpilet Sabbat !
gloaming with murder In dls heart and c
hole In both socks.
Hut wait a minute. I'll tell you al
about It.
QUICK WOniC FOR A MINUTE.
The Grasshopper led off , of course , and o
course he got soaked with tdo ball. It caugh
him In the back and left a dole big cnougl
to stick your font In. Gcorglc , however
doesn't care for trllloa , and he gathered him
self together tn score the Initial run.
He didn't do It.
Slagle succumbed on a tap to Jack O'Con
nor , wdlle the fresh and rosy Mr. Meedai
slammed both Shafe and Old Hutch out a
first.
first.Then
Then Hobby Carriithcrs stepped up. I cai
remember the time just a few years ago-
when Dobby's head was so big that he lia
to get another man to scratch It. Hut what'
the use of raking up old bygones ? He potsei
gracefully a moment , then biff dc caugh
Darby for a neat single , and ho made secon
when Pace allowed tde hit to get by him.
Then Dcvlnney caino forward. Devlnne
Is a young man yet and all ho needs to mak
his fortune Is a string and a grind organ
Ho stepped up with all tde confidence ot
man using dls botton dook for a night key
Daru curled a couple around his neck an
the smile faded from his youthful mug an
ho seemed fidgety.
Everybody knows that the nervous systcn
Is enclosed In A sort ot a case composed o
the bones ot the head and the vertebra , th
cncephalos being contained In the crania
cavity and the spinal marrow In the sptna
canal. Hut this Is not so with Devlnncy
Drain and marrow do not fill these cavities
It Is lime juice and prunes.
He struck out and a passed ball move
Debby on to third.
Katz was the next man. Ho Is a bad ma
from Kansas City , but If ho goes to heave
Mtchaclangelo , wdo undoubtedly hangs ou
there , will see at a glance tdat tdo wdlrllgl
ol centuries has produced In the ball playe
nn extraordinary Imitation of dls most won
dcrful work.
Katz was graciously allowed to walk. Tde
on Xela' out to Slagle Robert loped horn
like a spavined street car dorse with td
first run.
White was an easy thing for Ulrlch.
WillieO llrlen was quickly returned I
tde bench In tde second , but Pace made a d
and so did Petlc Lehman , only Petlc'a wen
over tdo fence tor tdo round trip.
That was nice.
Hut that was all.
In the tdlrd they took one apiece.
After O'Connor dad fanned. Hobby an
Devlnncy both hit cafe , the Parisian gcttln
home on a long fly to Slagle ,
For tde Omahogs Ulrlch and Slagle sin

It was an egg for each In the fourth , bu

It will readily be seen the aggregation la
the strongest thnt has represented Omaha
on the diamond for several vcars , an Im
mense Improvement over last reason's tenm
n every respect. If Nattress shows up ns
well at short as he should there will be
ball playing nil the tlmo when Omaha loses.
Miles will make the outlleld complete. It Is
violating no conlldence to say the manage
ment Is In correspondence with n weH
known pitcher , with every probability of
securing him. He Is known In Omaha , nnd
Is deservedly popular here on account of his
ability In the box nnd his conduct on and
off the field. If he conies Omaha will have
the battery talent of the league , with Lehman -
man nnd Pace for catchers , nnd Darby ,
Engnn , BoUz , Donnelly , Carrlsh and the
prospective for pitchers. This Is an array
any management might be proud of. At
present the best ot spirit exists among the
players , which In Itself Is half the game.
Not n dlsorganlzer on the team , and all
anxious to win , there Is good reason to
think the Omahogs will give n good account
of themselves for the rest of the season.
Rockford plays here today , tomorrow and
Wednesday , nnd the team then leaves for
a three weeks' trip , opening nt Jackson
ville on Friday. No one can wish less than
that President Kent's pets make n better
stand against the Indians nt home than
they did In Omaha.

Several nights ago as Patrolman Charles
lornmel was patrolling his beat , says the
Louisville Courier-Journal , lie discovered r.n
Id darkynlklng down the street with a
lolln under his arm. When he had gotten
venllh him he stopped him and began
uestlonlng him. The policeman was not
satisfied with the negro's account ot where
le had gotten the Instrument , and he placed
ilm under arrest. The negro went on wlth-
ut a word , and at the station gave his name
s James McCloskey.
The next day he wns presented before
tttlge Smith. The policeman told the Judge
io\v he had seen the negro on the street
\lth the Instrument , and he fald that It did
ot believe It belonged to him. It was a fine
lolln , he said , and a negro that had no
nore money than this negro seemed to have
ould not afford to buy. such a One Instru-
nent. The patrolman finally asked the judge
o glva him two days to look for the owner
f the violin , saying that he believed In thnt
line he would be able to locate Its owner.
The tlmo was granted him , nnd the negro
vas held over.
He was again presented before the
court , ThOD ? against him tried to male ?
out a felony case , as they said that the
violin was worth considerably over $20. The
violin was worth $40 , or perhaps $30. Dur-
ng the course of the trial the policeman
old the judge that the negro had admitted
o him that he could not play on the Instru-
nent , and that was one reason why he made
he arrest , as he knew that a man would
not pay a large sum for a thing ho could not
use.
use.Up to this time the prisoner had re-
nnlned silent. Ho had sat with downcast
eyes nnd did not seem to hear what was
rolng on. When he heard this ho suddn"y
ooked up nnd said :
"He's mistaken , yo' honor. I didn't say
hat I couldn't play on the violin , "
Ths judge remained silent for a moment
and then asked that the Instrument b ? handed
he negro. A light cam ? In the darky's
ace as he took the Instrument Into his
lands. He looked It over carefully and thsn
ondled It under his arm. He then took It
'rom ' under his arm and began to tune It.
le had scarcely struck the first note
vhen the crowd In the court room began
to stir and move up closer to the prlson-
r's dock. In a few moments the Instrument
vas tuned , and In the sweetest strains the
'Arkansas Traveler" echoed and re-echoed
hrouga the court room. The crowd began
o pat their feet In time with the music , and
he judge had to order the negro to stop
ilaylng. While the prisoner was playing his
mnd trembled and his eyes shone with an
unusual brightness. It was with reluctance
hat he stopped playing , and the crowd looked
llsappolntcd.
The negro sat still a imoment , but he could
stand It no longer. Again He placed the
violin to his shoulder , and began playing

officer. '
"Do you say that this man cannot play ? "

and the negro was dismissed.

Mr. Parke God.wln , " ( heft "one of the editors
of the New York Evening-'Post , had been very
outspoken In his newspaper writings and also
In public speech In denunciation of the polit
ical methods In common practice , says a
writer In McClure's. Thereby Mr. Godwin
and aroused the hatred of Isaiah Hyiulers
and his associates.
One afternoon , having left his office for his
home , Mr. Godwin stopped , as was his cus
tom , In Florence's restaurant for some oys
ters. As ho stood at the oyster stand he
saw In the remote part ot the room Hynders
and some of his men. He suspected
that they proposed to assault him before he
could leave the building. He realized that
It would not do for him to run , however ; so
he began to eat his oysters , while deliberat
ing upon his course. Suddenly ho noticed
that a man stood beside him , and looking up
he saw "Mlko" Walsh , who said to him : "Go
on eating your oysters , Mr. Godwin , but do
It as quickly as you can , and then go away.
Rynders and his men have been waiting here
for you and intend to kill you , but they won't
attack you as long as I am by your side. "
The advice was followed. After Mr. God
win , having finished his oysters , had gone
out , Ilynders stepped up to Walsh and said :
"What do you mean by Interfering In this
matter ? It Is none of your affair. "
"Well , Godwin did mo a good turn once ,
and I don't propose to eee him stabbed In the
back. You were going to do a sneaking
thing ; you were going to assassinate him ,
and any man who will do that Is a coward. "
"No man ever called me a coward , Mike
Walsh , and you can't. "
"But I do , and I will prove that you are a
coward. If you are not one , come upstairs
with me now. Wo will lock ourselves Into a
room ; I will take a knlfo and you take one ,
and the man who Is alive after we have got
throug'n will unlock the door and go out. "
Rynders accepted the challenge. They went
to an upper room. Walsh locked the doer ,
gave Rynders a largo bowleknlfe , took ono
himself and said : "You stand In that corner
and I'll stand In this. Then we will walk
toward the center of the room , and we won'l
stop until one or the other of us Is finished. "
Each took his corner. Then WalsJi turned
and approached the center of the room. But
Rynders did not stir. "Why don't you come
out ? " said Walsh. Rynders , turning In his
corner , faced his antagonist and said : "Mike ,
you and I have always been friends ; what Is
the use cf our fighting now ? If we get at It
we shall both be killed , and there Is no good
In that. " Walsh for a moment said not a
word , but his lip curled and he looked upon
Rynders with an expression of utter con
tempt. Then ho said : "I told you you were
a coward , and now I prove It. Never speak
to me again. "

AN INTERNATIONAL ROW
Grand Trial of Strength and Skill Between
Oollego Oarsmen.
CORNELL CREW BOOKtD FCR 'ENGLAND
Detail * of the Coming HegiUU at Henlej-
oii-tlio-Tlminei Keunr.l ot the Amar-
Icnn Croir Uimirpasied Kag-
Itind' * Champion Klght.
Great Interest has been aroused among
college athletes by the announcement thut
: ornell university Intends to send a crew to
England this summer to contest for Inter
national laurels. The crews of England's
colleges comprise the best amateur oarsmen
that country can produce , and their achieve
ments In the past challenge the admiration
of the world. Cornell holds nn enviable
record , In fact two world's records , In this
great sport , and has not lost n race In ten
years. The contest will be a magnificent
trial of strength and skill between the chain-
plons of America and Great Britain.
The event In which Cornell will take part
s the principal race In the Henley royal ro-
; atta , the great amateur rowing event of
the year In England. The regatta Is held
at Henley-on-thc-Thanies , and Is , as an old
Dxford man said recently , the prldo of Eng
lish oarsmen. Besides being the most Im
portant athletic event of the year , It has be
come n conspicuous society function , as fash
ionable folk from all England congregate
there to see the races.
Henley Is but forty-flvo miles from Lon
don. During the racing season excursions
are run from there every day. Society people
ple take thc'r own boats to the races , and
what are called "boat stands" are sold nt
such enormous prices that the money de
rived from this source pays the expenses of
the races and provides the fund for the
prizes.
The most Important races arc viewed by
not less than 100,000 persons , and the scene
on the river at Henley during the last day
of the races Is something entirely different
from those presented by rowing events else
where.
The regatta Includes a number of races
for fours , a few for pairs , and the famous
diamond challenge sculls for singles.
The principal race , however , Is that In
eights for the * grand challenge cup , and It
Is this for which Cornell Is entered. The
course over which the race Is rowed Is ono
mile and C50 yards In length , or not quite a
mile and a half. Owing to the short distance
rowed , It Is probably the fastest race In the
world , and It Is certainly the most exciting ,
because the leading crews are hardly more
than a boat's length apart. The entire mile
and a half Is a spun , sucli as nonb but thor
oughly trained oarsmen can stand.
For several years past this race has been
won by the Leander club , Its principal com
petitors being Trinity Hall , Cambridge , the
Thames Rowing club and the London RowIng -
Ing club. The Leander club Is made up al
most exclusively * of Oxford and Cambridge
oars , and Its crew Is chosen annually from
the best available men of the two varsity
boats. Last year Its eight contained six
Oxford and two Cambridge men.
Cornell will , therefore , meet the strongest
amateur eight In nil England , nnd a victory
over the Leander club would be much more
of an honor than over either Oxford or Cam
bridge.

CORNELL'S ROWING RECORD.
The question of sending a crew to England
has been discussed by the Cornell Athletic
council for some years , but , owing to the
expense Involved , the trip has not , before this
year , been thought advisable. This year ,
however , Cornell Is practically forced to
cross the water If she wishes to keep up any
Interest In rowing among her students.
This statement may require explanation.
Cornell began rowing In the Intercollegiate
regattas , which Included Harvard and Yale , In
1S73. In 1S7G , and again In 187G , she secured
first place In this regatta. Since that time
she has met neither Harvard nor Yale In a
varsity race , although year after year the
Ccrnell authorities have tried to secure one.
The freshman crews ot the three universities
have sometimes met , the result being always
a victory for Cornell , as the Cornell freshman
crews have never lost a race. During the
last ten years Cornell's principal competitors
have been Columbia In the freshman races
and the University of Pennsylvania In the
varsity races. Over both of these Cornell
has always won easily , but she has the most
kindly feeling toward them , as , had It not
been for their thoroughly sportsmanlike atti
tude , leading them year after year to train
crews only to meet defeat , Cornell's crews
would have had to dlsbnnd without a rac3.
In these years Cornell has steadily main
tained a high standard of training for her
crews , establishing two world's records. One
eight , In 18S9 , rowed one and one-half miles
at Philadelphia In 7:03 : , and another , In 1891 ,
established the record of 14:27'- : ; , for three
miles over the New London course.
In the whole course of her aquatic career
Cornell has won thirty-one victories and suf
fered eight defeats. When , therefore , Dean
White visited England last summer and ex
amined Into the conditions of the Henley
race he decided to recommend to the athletic
council that Cornell should enter for the
grand challenge cup. After a thorough discus
sion the council decided last November to at
tempt to raise money enough to send the
crew. In March the greater part of the neces
sary $9,000 was promised and the crew was
entered.
The man to whom Cornell's splendid record
Is In large part due In Charles E. Courtney ,
who Is now coaching the Cornell crews for his
twelfth season. Courtney Is hlmse ( an ixpcrt
oarsman , having won the single scull race at
Saratoga In 1873. The "Courtney stroke" has
become a well known term among oarsmen
everywhere. Its essential characteristics are
that It compels the oarsman to make use of
his legs , to keep a straight back and to put
most of his force on the first part of the
stroke. Mr. Courtney also lays gieat stress
on the rigging of the boat , each man having
a seat carefully adjusted to his measure. He
compels every candidate for the crews to
keep well up In his studies and Is strict In
his discipline. This spring , for Instance , one
of the mobt prominent men In the freshman
boat has been dropped for not properly ob
serving the rules of training.
THIS YEAR'S CREWS.
The crews this year have been In training
since January. During the winter months
they rowed nn the machines In the gymna
sium , but as soon as the weather permitted
In the early part of April they were put Into
the boats on the' Inlet and are now rowing
there and on the lake. Training goes on ev
ery day except Sunday from 4 until 7 o'clock.
Courtney Is kept busy , as there are two
varsity crews , with a number ot substitutes ,
and two freshmen crews In training. Of
these , twelve men and a coxswain will be
sent to England , but no one , not even Court
ney himself , knows who these men will be.
Twenty-three names were entered at Hen
ley before March 31 , the last date for en
tries , and from the e twenty-three those
twelve men will be selected who , at the
time of sailing , are the best oarsmen for the
distance to be rowed at Henley , Probably
not more than two men ore sure of places
at present. From the men who are left at
Ithaca another varsity crew will be chosen
to row In a triangular race against Columbia
and the University of Pennsylvania.
The Henley crew will call for England
May 29 on the Paris. This will give them
one month to become acclimated , the time
found neccsiary by the Yale athletic team
last year. Their headquarters during the
training season will ba about ten miles from
Henley , the cost of living at Henley In the
summer season being enormous.
As two shells are to be taken alone , the
crew will train at Its headquarters In the
morning , and then , leaving for Henley by
rail , will train there In the afternoon.
The shell In which the race will be rowed
ls ono from the famoui shop of Waters , ol
Troy , and U probably the best of Its kind
ever made In America. It will bo paid for
by the senior class at Cornell , who leave It as
the class memorial. The railroads Intend to
run excursions from Ithaca to New York
May 29 , and , as the uext day Is a holiday ,
It Is altogether likely that hundreds of the
ttudenti will take advantage of the oppor
tunity to give- the crews a rousing tarewel
from a iteamer down on lower New York
Hay.
EFF Or OF THE NEW RIFLES.
A Burgeon In Clilim S r They Wound Mnro
Mm , but Not So Rprcrolr.
The evolution of the modern mlllt.uy small
lore rllle has keen ot so recent date that ,
until the nar In the cast , no opportunity has
occurred to enable comparltans to be nmJe
ot the dcstructlvencss In actual warfare ot
the long , tliln bullet of the new \\fnion :
with the l.irger and lioaUer ball of the older
style gun. Up to the present time the
ctiowledge ot the surgical results of the
narked reduction In caliber has been based
upon the experiments made upon bodies ot
uen nnd animals by numerous Invc tlgatots
n this country and abroad. Tlio deductions
nnde from these te tx have naturally been
argrly of u theoretical nnlurinnd as tucli
lave not bci-ii entlirly sallEfactory to "he "
nllltnry surgeons nnd cithers Interested In
the development of the tmall bore rlilo.
During the progrcs.i of the eastern uur a
icrtlon ot tdc Japanese army was armed
with tliu Mtirntti rllle , u small bore weapon
carrying a copper and nickel-plated bullet
of n diameter of .tllCi Inch , \\clRhlng 23S
; ralns , and projected with a muzzle vc-
oclty of 1,810 feet per second. This weapon
approximates the Lec-Mctford innclilnc
rifle of the fJnglLsh army , but Is ot slightly
urger onllbcr tlun the Krag-Jorgcnscn gun
adopted for the United States sen Ice. The
character of the wounds made by the
Murata ride , as known by the Chinese In
ured In the military operations In Man
churia , Is given In detail by Dr. Dugnld
Christie , of the Moukdcn Medical Mist-Ion , In
n letter tn the British Medical Journal.
Since part of the Japanese forces were
irovlded with a modlllcntlon of the old
Martini-Henry rifle , with Us comparatively
urge , soft bullets , molng at a relatively
moderate velocity , the effects ot the two
'ormn of bullets were the more marked and
striking. The contused , lacerated wounds
of the softer largo bore bullets , with tlielr
characteristic ragged point of entrance , the
extensively rpllntcrcd bone , and the gaping
exit so well known to the older army sur
geons , contrasted forcibly with the small ,
: lcan-cut wounds made by the small-call-
liered bullet , the absence of bruising of the
surrounding tlrcues , the slight tendency to
comminution of the bones and the rapidity
with which the wounds h alcd. While the
increased explosive action which Is given
the small-caliber bullet by the high muzzle
velocity would apparently point to greater
destruction of the tissues , It was shown
that the harder shell ot the ball , and Its
lesser liability to become deformed , resulted
on the whole In an explosive effect not so
marked.
From an experience with a largo number
of the wounded from the battles of Ping-
Yang , Chin-Chow and other engagements In
: he region of Manchuria , Dr. Christie Is ltd
to conclude that , while the new bullet cf
small caliber and great velocity may wound
a larger number of men. It Is less destructive
In Its effects on the tissues of the body , and
therefore less fatal than the older missile.
DEVOID OF SENTIMENT.
A Story Illustrate ! the Clmructcrlsllcn ol A.
T. htownrt.
A story Is told by the Chicago Record Illus
trating the determination of the late A. T.
Stewart not to allow any tender consideration
or any tympathetlc Influence to Interfere with
the accomplishment of his ambition , which
was to build up the greatest business house
n America. Stewart was for many years the
merchant prince of New York ; he exerted an
Influence that was felt In every part of this
country and wns recognized abroad. What
he achieved was not more by means ot the
jcnlus of shrewdness than by means of the
; enlus of pertinacity. Stewart cultivated the
; erm of selfishness thnt was In him ; culti
vated It calculatlngly and determinedly , as we
see by this little story that Is told ot him :
Upon entering his store one morning he
sought out the man. having the hiring and dis
charging ol the cash boys.
"Mr. Llbby , " said he , "who Is that hand
some , brltfht-eyed little boy standing by the
counter yonder ? "
"His name Is Mason , Charley Mason , sir , "
answered Mr. Llbby. "He Is Indeed a hand
some little fellow , and he Is as bright and as
well-mannered as ho Is handsome. He Is the
most attentive nnd "most promising boy we
lave In our employ. "
"Yes , I thought as much , " said Stewart
gruffly. "Discharge him at once. "
"Why , Mr. Stewart ! " exclaimed Llbby , nl
most paralyzed with astonishment , "you
surely cannot mean It ! "
"Discharge him at once , I say , " repeated
Stewart , sternly. "I'm getting too much
Interested In that buy. I find myself stop
ping nnd talking with him as I come In or
KO out of the store. His personality Inter
ests me his candor , his Intelligence , his en
thusiasm , his beauty. I find myself thinking
of him after I reach my desk nnd when I
should be busy at work. I have no time and
no right to become Interested In anybody I
must not suffer any liking to distract me
from business. Discharge that boy at once ! "
Well , the Uttle fellow had to go. Presum
