For the short ipaco of ttn minutes yes terday afternoon Omaha had within Its city limits a verltabls blue-blooded sprig of roy alty , Prlnco Joseph of Battenberg. He Is one of a party of ten who are making a trip around the world. They came In on the Overland flyer at 5:35 : In a special car and a few minutes later continued on their way cast. cast.Joe Is a straight six-footer and well built. A short beard covers the greater portion of his face. He talks good English , with a decidedly English accent , and Is very polite. When a reporter approached him the prince began a v ry effusive apology to the effect that he had entirely forgotten at what court lie had met the reporter , but when the latter explained his Ignoble birth and low station lu life Joe remained as polite as before. "I've never been In this country before and on this trip I have been In this country only for a few days , " remarked the prlncs over a glass of amber colored fluid , "but I have remarked one thing especially , and that Is the lager beer. It Is excellent and much better than that In the old country. It 1s excellent and becomes delicious when wo get a thirst on our trip. It is so light. This Is no doubt a great country. " He asked If Omaha was not a mighty city and after he had been briefly assured that It was one of the greatest In the country he said In answer to a question that he hnd not seen many cities In the country yet. "As I remarked before , " hn continued , "this Is my first trip to the United States nnd it will be a short one , for I must be back In my country In June. Ws disem barked In San Francisco on last Thursday nnd remained there only i short time. I think San Francisco Is tht > greatest city in the world for Its architecture. It Is grand. W stayed a day In Salt Lake and now wo are going through to Chicago , where we will stay a day. Then wo will go to Albany and down the Hudson to New York , where I will remain four days. Over what road ? Over the railroad. Then I will sail to my country I will say again that I am sorry that I can not stay to see more of this great country. but I must bo back In June. "We are on a trip around the world. I started" In October and since that time I have traveled 30,000 miles. It was very Interest ing. I put down In a diary everything I see. I do not know It I will write a book or not. Coodbye. the train Is going. I thank you much for your consolation. " Itnunil Oicr fur Umuezzloinrnt. DES MOINES. Mny 1C.

NEW YORK , May IE. The first real trial of the new racing law was had today at Jravesend , and as far as could be seen It Is Ikely to become popular , The morning hours were anything but pleasant , for a cold wind blow across the track. The nlr was raw and chilly , and the overcast sky made It seem as f rain might fall at any minute. The track was very muddy and there- were pools of water all over It. The clouds began to break away at about 10 o'clock , and there was ilenty of blue sky and sunlight by noon. The jookles had plenty of work to do , but they did not shout the odds , and the betting was done quietly. From 1 o'clock until the start of the handicap betting was In order , and Dr. Itlcc and Ramapo were about equal choice ! , though It finally settled down on the latter as favorite. The attendance was but moderate at 1 o'clock , although the weather wns greatly "mproved. The bookmakers were beginning .o offer odds on the hnnJIcap. JUmapo and 3r. Rico were In nearly even terms In the betting. Rey el Santa Anita was held at a short figure , nnd Sir Walter was next. The average of the quotations was as follows : ODDS ON THE STARTERS. Horco.

At 4:30 : the bugle called the horses to the post for the big event , nnd everybody hur ried to toke his place to watch the contest. As the horses cantered slowly to the post each was heartily cheered. Thtn but a few minutes elapsed before all were at the start ing point , and all got away ; but the start was too straggling , and they had to go back. There was a little more maneuvering , and nt exactly 4:45 : Starter Rowe caught them In good line , the red flag fell and It was followed by the well known yell , "They're off , " and the great opening race of tbe year was on. There was a general struggle to the stand for position , and the first quarter was passed In twenty-five seconds , with Assignee making the pace , a noje In front of Ed Kearney , who was three parts of a length In front of Ram ape , he a length ahead of Sir Walter and Dr. Rice , with Counter Tenor , Rubicon , Da- clare , Rey el Santa Anita , Hornpipe and Laz- zarone following , und Bassetlaw a bad last , completely otit of the race. At the three furlong pole Assignee had a good lead of two lengths and was doing well , while GrilTln was urging Ramapo to keep him up in front , a fatal error , as he could only keep a head In front of Ed Kearney , who was In turn a head In front of Sir Walter , followed by Dr. Rice , whom Taral was. holding In lila- favorite fifth place. Rubicon was In sixth place , but wns not doing well , while Counter Tenor was sev enth. Then came Hornpipe , who had moved up a peg , followed by Rey el Santa Anita , Declare , Lazzarone , on whom that master ] udge of pace , .Isaac Murphy , was watching the. others llko a cat , .and Uassetlaw was hope lessly last. POSITIONS AT THE HALF. At { he half-mile pole , . .whichfzt reached In fifty seconds , Grlflln had sent his mount within a half a length of the flying leader , Assignee , nnd was a length in advance of Sir Walter , who was a length ahead of Ed Kearney , tired out with the effort. Then came Dr. Rice , Taral sitting quietly waiting lor the last struggle , and Counter Tenor next. Murphy urged Lazzarone Into seventh place , a little ahead of Hornpipe , while Rubicon v.as next and beginning to quit. Rel el Santa Anita was going ; well In tenth plactf and De clare had joined Bassetlaw In tbe struggle for li t place. On the way to the five-furlong pola there was a quick shifting cf positions , and Ram ape tumbled back to sixth place , out of the contest apparently , as he had shot his bolt trying to keep up with the leaders. Sir Walter took first place by a head from As signee , with Ed Kearney In third place. Dr. Rlcj fourth , Taral still holding hlxi well in. Counter Tenor fifth , and Hornpipe next. Rubicon , Rey el Santa Anita and the others followed. Then Ed Kearney stumbled and WHS out of the race altogsther , Penn pulling Jilm up and cantering home slowly. The three-quarters was reached In 1:17 , and the great Ramapo had Joined D.'clare , Basset- law and Rubicon , all having hod enough of It. Sir Walter was still In the lead and had half a length the best of Lazzarone. whom Murphy had cent through the field like a flash , sud denly becoming a dangerous competitor. The pair were three lengths ahead of Hornpipe , on whom Hamilton bad moved up as he saw bo hed something beside Dr. Rice and Sir Walter to beat. Counter Tenor had moved into fourth place , but still Taral mnde > no sign on Dr. Rice , who was going well In fifth place. Rey < l Santa Anita was close behind him , with Assignee In seventh place. HERE IT WAS A HORSE RACE. The turn was In sight and the ssven-fur- long pole at hand. Doggitt was working hard to hold his lead with Sir Walter. Taral was now trying to get Dr. Rice to the- front , but It was of no avail , for he lacked the speed and could only keep his head in front of Rey el Santa Anita , a very dangerous bora ; . The -mile post at the he-ad of the stretch was reached In the slow time of 1:45. : A the horses were straightened out for the'final effort there were only six horses in the race. Sir Walter had the lead still by half a length , but Doggett had to go to whip and spur to keep him there. Lazzarone hail a bead the better of Hornpipe , as Murphy had stolen up on Hamilton and was riding like a master of his art ; Counter Tenor , with Lamlcy urging hard , was fourth , wall * Taral could not get Dr. Rico any higher In the line , with Rey 1 Santa Anita gaining on him under Dergen's urging , while the others wera hopelessly out of It. Down through the stretch the racers rushed , every Jockey working his hardest to win what only on could. Dogg tt felt Sir Walter falter under him and only worked the harder to make the game llttlo horse do his utmost , but U was no use. Murphy got within a neck of him at the last furlong post , while Hornpipe was only a short had behind. The others had not changed places , but they were beaten , nevertheless , nnd only three were left to do battle for the 110,000 prlz ; . Inch by inch Lazzarone crept past Sir Walter and as ho did so Hamilton came up with Hornpipe and to Murphy's surprise began to pass him. Both jockeys were working as hard as they knew how , but Murphy taw Hamilton had the bettor horse under him and had to rest con tent with second place by half a length , while he was three lengths In front of Counter Tenor , followed closely by Rey El Santa Anita , Declare , Dr. Rlc , Rubicon , Assignee , Hassetlevv and Ramapo , with Kd Kearney a quarter of a mile behind. The time was 2:11 : % . OTHER RACES WORTH WATCHING. Four out of the seven originally entered started in the first race and when the flag fell Wernberg had a length the bst of It. Taral quickly took Domino alongside and held him there to the stretch , when he gave the black his head and won In the hollowest pos sible Etyle , two lengths from Wernberg. I'a- trlclan nipped Factotum on the post for third place and Taral had won the first race of the season In this state. After a half hour's de lay the six 3-year-olds In the second race were sent away to a good start. Hailstone jumped to the lead at the first turn and had four lengths the best of It In a few jumps. Owlet was second and Hermanlta third. At ths turn Into the stretch Owlet took the lead and lisld it easily to the end. Kennet came out of the bunch and , with Lamley riding like a demon , got second place from Her manlta. The Expectation stakes was the third race on the program and brought out a field of seven starters , with Bolmont'a filly , "JortUn , as a strong favorite. Tuo flag tell quickly to a good itnrt and Floretta jumped nt once Into the lead. In a. few yards she was four lengths to the good , with Axiom and Montezuma following.

But In the sixth Inning the home team rallied and with some good stick work , most noticeable of which was Darby's second home run In the game , succeeded In piling up six runs , which gave a lead of four runs. The Rockfords were not to be outdone and saw the raise and added six to their score , making a lead of two. This put a damper on the ladles , but when the Omahogs came In for the seventh and last inning it was with a determination to win the game right there. Three doubles and three singles added six more scores to the Omaha slde.and It proved more than the Rocktords could overcome. Doth teams played strong. The game put up by the Rockford out and inflelders was the best sesn In Omaha this year. Vlsner made a running one-hand catch and Krelg made two dllflcult catches of balls which looked safe. The Infield made three light ning doubles and shut off several runs by excellent work at Critical times. The game was called at the end of the seventh inning to allow the Rockfords to catch a train in time to get home to open with the Lincoln * tomorrow. Yesterday's game is the last thai will be seen at Charles Street park this month. Omaha left last night for Jacksonville and will be "gone until June 4.
