At the close of the seventh Inning tn yes
terday' * game when the score was every
way In Omaha's favor , Old Grandpa Traf-
fley gathered his llttlo flock about him on
the bench and Informed them that this
would have to stop He said that If the
Indians were allowed to make It three
straight he would never be able to hold up
his little head onions the prohibitionists
again , and with tears In his eyes told them
that ho would put a rope around the neck
of every mother's con of them and drop
them Into oblivion If the game was lost.
Then when the Inning began Grandpi
stood upon the side lines and cast a hypnotic
spell upon Eagan , Ulrlch and Schaffer. It
was enough In a short dozen minutes
cloven great big Juicy runs rolled across the
plate , each with a velocity that would put
the Kid Edghlll In the shade , and Grandpa
crewed the llttlo crow of his second child
hood.
For three Innings the game was as pretty
a one as ono over expects to see Then
Omaha began to tumble to the Intricacies
of Andrews' delivery , and at the end cf the
sixth he commenced to wonder whether life
was worth living. To spare his feelings
further Grandpa gently burled him and sent
Into the box a long , lanky , lean Cockroach
Eagan pitched a good game up to the
eighth inning when eight lilts were made
off him , but the miserable support ho re
ceived was enough to make a wooden Indian
grow weary. Look at the error column
Tuesday was pay day , see'
Old Joe Walsh appeared In the diamond
again , this time for DCS Moines and put up
a fine article. Trot says he Is going to
make him captain
Mr. Vorls did not do as well as yester
day. He made a couple of had base de
cisions and was sometimes rather at sea In
figuring out the differences between balls
and strikes.
Hero Is the score-
OMAHA.

TENNIS IN A HIGH WIND

SEMI-FINALS IN THE DOUBLES PLAYFD
Culllnchnm iind Hurto nnd llnikcll mill
AuMln Loft to Compete for the
Closing llonorx Il-trto and Cul-
IlngliHtn In the Singles.
The wind Interfered a great deal with the
play yesterday afternoon In the city tennis
tournament matches. Ths gusts that swept
over the courts from all points spoiled many
strokes that would otherwise have scored
points , and they also raised eo much dust
that the players were frequently unable to
gauge the balls correctly and made bad re
turns. This condition of weather alto kept
many people from attending , but with all the
discomfort of dust and wind those that were
present were fully repaid by the brilliant
work that was often done.
The matches that were scheduled were the
semi-finals In both the singles and doubles ,
and all the games were well contested , al
though , as was stated above , the wind lntr-
fcred considerably with the play. The fact
that the wind seemed to come from every
direction and also the usual changing of
the contestants from ono end of the court to
the other after overv set gave the advantage
to neither player. In one of the matches ,
however , a little unpleasantness arose be
tween two players over this matter , one of
them apparently believing that he was get
ting the worst of It , but , fortumtely , It
was not carried to extremes Differences of
such nature are bound to arise in tennis as
In every other sport whore the clement of
rivalry enters , but tennis players owe It
to their sport to see that they are settled
as soon as possible.
It took five sets for Culllngham and
Harte to beit Bannister and Percy Young
last evening The match abounded In pretty
rallies from the beginning to the finish ,
the honors of which were very evenly di
vided The sympathy of the spectators was
almost entirely with the losing team and
this probably had something to do In en-
couiaging them to put up the game they
did.
BOTH TEAMS DID WKLL
They frequently played tennis that was
superior to their opponents' but they were
not as steady as the latter Although they
had not played as much together as the other
two they showed more team work , both
Culllnghain and Harte a number of times
letting balls go by because each expected the
other to get them. Young and Uannlster
rarely did this.
The first set was won by Culllngham and
Hartc , and then Bannister and Young got the
following two In quick order , having several
love games to their credit Their play In
thcso two sets was brilliant. In the other
two sets they played badly In comparison ,
and lost them as quickly as they won the
other two
Individually the play of Bannister and
Young was also far more erratic than that
of their opponents They both play el ex
cellently , at times getting balls that seamed
to bo well out of their reach Young put up
a game that was even a surprise to his
friends , especially about the net II s playing
was very cool the balls being sent quite fre
quently into unprotected parts of the court
Bannister played a gimc fully as good
Culllngham played a steidy and good all
around game. He was particularly effective
at the net , from which his smashes Invari
ably scored a point He made many pretty
strokes , and he often placed bails effectively
Harte's game , while good , was sometimes n
little off color , especially In fae two sets that
he and his partner lost
HASKCLL AND AUSTIN WIN
The other match In ths se'nl finals In the
doubles was played by Haskell and Austin
against Findlay and Bancker In the after
noon the latter team won the final set In the
match between them and Tilden and Denlse
which was postponed from the preceding day ,
by the score of C-4. The match In the semi
finals was won by Austin and Haskell In
threa love sets , entirely on Its merits While
the losing team put up a good game. It was
not equal to that of their opponents , and
they lost. The team work of the winning
team was better than that of the other two
although at times both of the latter relied too
much on the other and let a ball go by them
Findlay and Bancker sent the majority of
their balls to Haskell , being evidently in fear
of Austin
Austin played his usual strong game and
Haskell's play was always gold and some
times brilliant The net play of both was
very good They both plac ° d balls excel
lently , sometimes finding their opponents
isleep. Neither , however , played their
strongest game , preferring to allow their
points to be made for them by their opponsnts
than to go after them A large number of
balls were sent out of the lines by both
Bancker and Flndlay , especially the former
Occasionally they made a pretty stroke or re
turn , but not frequently enough to put the
match In danger
RESULTS IN SINGLES.
In a pretty match In the afternoon Cul
llngham won from Wallace In the singles
The victory was not hard won , although Wal
lace played well. Culllngham was saving
himself for the doubles In the evening and
consequently did not exert himself as much
as he usually does.
Haite also won from Haskell In the singles
after three sets had been played Haskell
played a very good game , as also did Harte ,
and the rivalry between the two made the
match very Interesting.
The results yesterday were as follows-
Singles Harte beat Haskell , 1-G , G-2 , C-4 ;
Culllngham beat Wajlace , G-2. G-4
Doubles Culllngham and Harte beat Ban
nister and Young , G-2 , 3-G. 2-G , G-2 , G-2 ; Findlay -
lay and Bancker beat Tilden and Denlso ,
7-5 , 8-6 , 3-G , G-4 ; Haskell and Austin beat
Findlay and Bancker , G-0 , G-0 , G-0
Today the finals In both the doubles and
singles will be played In the latter Culllng
ham will meet Harte In the afternoon At
C 15 this evening Culllngham and Harte will
meet Haskell and Austin in the doubles The
matches will undoubtedly b ? hard fought , for
considerable rivalry exists between all of the
players.

6 The Cornell crew of oarsmen which Is
to compete at the Henley regatta In the
contest for the Qrard Visitors' Challenge
cup , nirived here fiom Southampton today
and were greatly pleased with the quarters
which Commodore Hantlngs of the Cornell
navy secured for thorn , on a hill ut Under
wood , a pretty little place ovet looking the
Thames and situated about n auirtcr of a
.mile from here. The two papei shells ar
rived hero with the ercvv , and nfter they
had been caiefully examined evrybody was
pleased to see that they had sustained no
damage during their trip ncioss the Atlan
tic , 'the weather thin nfternoon is beauti
ful , and the visitors catheied In for > .o tn
the banks of the Thames when the crows
took their first spin ovet the course The
young men created a favorable Impression
amo"B the onlookers , hut the expert Ilrlt-
Ishers uthore expressed the opinion that
they were too light.
A representative of the Associated press
had un Interview during the morning' with
a member of the Cornell crew , who said
"The boys me delighted with the course
It Is a direct contrast to our canal , which
afforded easy tow Ins. "
When asked about the alleged llshtness
of the crew , he remarked : 'They were
selected with that very thing in view If
wit win hero we must do so in a fpurt , and
the lightness will bo na advantaue The
boys are greatly pleated with nil of Has
tings' arrangements "
Commodore W T Hastln-fs of the Cor
nell navy said : " \Va have our own servants ,
do our own cateilng nnd cooking , nnd the
houae selected for the quaiters of the er > w
la in every way convenient und healthy. "
Mr C. U Francis , manager of the Coin ill
crow , expressed Flmllar views regarding
the prospects of the crow and their ac
commodation ?
LONDON. June 7. Sporting Life nays that
the comparative shortness of the 8trok" of
the Cornell crew was the first thing that
attracted the attention of the onkukem
when the Americans took their first spin
over the course. The methods of praoullun
are entirely different from that adoptul
hero. The sheila are very pretty crafts.

At the Ynle conference this evening the
only topic of conversation , nsldo from u few
remarks on tomorrow's examination , was
the Oxfotd-Cnmbrldge challenge. Officers of
the Athletic association have received no
otllclal communication us yet , but all ex
press themselves as favorably disposed to
accept should Harvard be willing and the
terms- satisfactory Lewis P Sheldon , the
newly elided cap-lain , said. "For some

mlttcee and graduates will be consulted be

CAMHRinai : Mass , June G The chal
lenge of Oxford nnd Cambridge universities
to Harvard and Ynle for an intercollegiate
meeting In this countiy next September
has not yet been received bv Harvard M
W Honham , captain of the Haivuid Tr.-uk
athletic , team , Is out of town Membcis of
the team who were seen Knew nothing *
about the challenge , except what w.is con
tained in the Associated press dispatches.
They thought it was rather doubtful If
Harvard would pirtlelpate In a meeting
next September The athletic * team went
out of training Immediately after the inter
collegiate games ! In New York on May
2r , niul In order to enter a meeting next
September would liavo to resume training
In August Some of the iithletes thought ,
however , that Harvard might decide that
the opportunity to meet the Englishmen
on this side of the water was too 'good
to be lost , nnd in order to take pait In the
contests , Hnrvaid's best men might train
specially In view of the fact that Yale
is now Intercollegl ite champion. Harvard
will undoubtedly wait for the New Haven
men to take the Initiative In the matter
of accepting or rejecting the challenge
Harvard men would like very much to
take part In a meeting Ftitli us that pro
posed , but the athletes generally con-cider
the time suggested as very Inconvenient.
As far as could be learned tonight , no one
nt Harvard haw received the challenge from
Oxford and Cambridge Although Captain
Ulngham has been absent all diy. It Is
thouBht more than piobable that had he
received the challenge he would have at
once fotvv aided It to Prof Ames , chairman
of the Hirvnrd athletic committee The
general verdict on the campus tonight was
tlmt the challenge will not be accepted by
Hiivnn ! when it arrives
NiW YORK , June C Charles Shenlll ,

"omewhnt siui priced today when shown n

PHILADELPHIA. June G. The University
of Pennsylvania , having been Instrumental
In the Issuing of the challenge to Oxford
and Cambridge , naturally feels chagrined at
the action of the athletic committees of the
two English colleges In refusing to meet
the winners of the Intercollegiate frames E
II Ellis , n leading member of the I'nlverslty
of Penniylvinla athletic committee nnd the
frnmer of the resolutions , said to a rep-
recentattve of the Associated pre ° s that the
resolutions expressly stated that the Eng
lishmen were at liberty to select their lep-
rosentatlves from nny co'lege In Croat
Britain He further stated that Secretary
Geyclln of the University of Pennsylvania
committee had rece'ved a letter from Secretary -
rotary Jackson of the Oxford athletic com
mittee In which the latter stated tint the
resolutions were perfectly satisfactory an 1
tint IIP uavv no leason why the meet should
not take place Mr Ellis -ald It looked to
him as If the Englishmen had waited until
they saw the records of the Intercollegiate
winners before replying to the challenge.

One of tlio grandest crowds over assembled
In Omahi to witness a sporting event \\aii
that at the Coliseum last night , the fourtli
night of the great six-day amateur bicycle
race.
race.At
At the opening' hour the big building was
neil filled , and an hilf hour later good scats
were at a premium. Cven ths reserve seats
were all occupied and hundreds of people
lined the walls all 'round the building
The lnt rest that Is being manifested In
this race exceeds anything of the kind ever
known here , with the exception of the first
professional race In 1887 and the first ladles'
race In 18SS.
At 9 30 last night there wasn't a vacant
scat In the house , but up to this time there
had been nothing of a surprising or sensa
tional nature. Morgan dropped quietly out
of the chase on his 174th mile , loa\lng only
Hollow ay , Frcdrlckson , Oadkc and Hclnzman
to dlppute the triumphal onward whirl of the
Wonderful Kid Uoth Fredrlckson and Hol

from the messenger boy. but It availed them
nothing Ho was watchful as a fox and
would not be caught napping The two big
fellows would make a spurt , but no matter
how desperately the ) worked the Wonderful
Klil clung to them with the tenacity of the
Old Man of the Sea to hapless Slnbad's neck ,
and when he felt HKo it ho shot past them
like an arrow from the bow They finally
got tired of the fruitless undertaking and
for a full hour were content to " .jpar for
wind " Chasing the kid was too much like
chasing a phantom The result was that
the crowd was treated to a rather monotonous
exhibition Still it seemed to enjoy it Im
mensely , and at the slightest provocation
made the big building fairly quaver and quake
with cheers of approval and encouragement
Several available special prizes will be of
fered tonight for the encouragement of the
riders.
The finish last evening was another hair
raiser , and Fredrlckson won The Kid be
gan the spurt fully five minutes before the
closing hour and Kredrlckson was consequently
quently enabled to beat him out en the final
lap and thus gets the special prize , a hand

TWO SUPPOSED SAFE ROBBEKS
Police ( 'upturn n 1'nlr of Mrn Thought to
Iln the Itrctvnry Iturglurn.
Yesterday morning John Howard , alias Mahoney -
honey , and Fritz Frank were arrested at
Vie McCarthy's place ncir Uellevuo and
charged with the robbery of the safe In the
office of the Anheuser-UURcli Brewing com
pany In this city on Tuesday morning Ths
arrest was made by Chief Detective Haze
and Detectives Dunn , Donahue and Davis
As soon as the men were placed safely bs-
hlnd the bars Louis Jackson , the driver and
watchman who was bound and gagged by the
safeblowers while they did their work , was
summoned to see the prisoners. He positively
Identified Howard as being one of the men
who did the job , but was not sure that Frank
was the other , although he said that lie
thought he was Both of the men refused to
talk , but It Is the opinion of the police that
they are the two men who cracked the safe
Detectives Savage and Dcmpsey are entitled
to the cradlt of discovering the men and their
whereabouts. If the prisoners are the right
men They rec ° lved Information on Thursday
night from a resident of Hellsvue that four
suspicions characters were hanging about Mc-
Cirthy's place From the d ° scrlptlons given
the detectives Immediately jumped to the con
clusion that two of the men were the safe-
blowers. Consequently yesterday morning
Haze and his assistants were sent to arrest
the men
When the officers left the train at nelle-
vuo one of them noticed Vic McCarthy-
standing by They kept out of sight , and
as the train was pulling out two men sprang
from behind a string of freight cars that
were standing near by and ran toward the
train. The officers ran out to meet them ,
and as soon as the men saw them they
drew weapons , but before they could shoot
they were overpowered While the fight
was going on Vic McCarthy took to hla
heels and escaped in the woods The two
men who were captured were Frank and
Howard.
Howard Is a well known western crook
who has gone under a number of aliases
among them Moore and Drown Ills right
name is Mahoney. Tl'o ; lrs > t thno ho became -
came known was when he was sent five
years ago to the Canon City , Colo. , peniten
tiary for committing a robbery. After he
served his sentence he came to Omaha. He
was arrested by Detectives Savage and
Dempsey as a suspicions character and was
sent to the county Jail for thirty days After
ho came out ho robbed the residence of
Illclmrd Fleming at Twenty-second and
Poppleton avenue Ho was seen and ran
away , but was captured In the neighborhood
of Sheeley after ho had thrown away the
stolen property For this ho served two
years In the Lincoln penitentiary When
he came out , he , together with a member
of the Collins family and another of
the McDonald family , both well known
In criminal circles of this city , he robbed
the Jewish synagogue , but was not captured
Later he removed to Council Bluffs , where
he did a daylight job and was arrested
He was sentenced to serve a year and a
half at Anamosa , but on the way to prison
ho succeeded in slipping off his Irons and
escaped He was recaptured In Omaha by
Detectives Hayes and Hudson on South
Thirteenth street Ho was taken to Ana
mesa and served his time there
He has been out for some six months , and
It Is thought that It was during this time
that he became acquainted with Frank , the
other prisoner , who gave his right name
Frank was bred In Kanbas City and became
an Iron moulder. Later he became a thief
and was ono of the famous "Dirty Do/en '
of Kansas City Ho has served several sen
tences In the workhouse of Kansas City , and
It Is thought that while there he became
acquainted with Howard , who Is known to
have been In the workhouse of the same
city not more than a month ago.

electrified and dumbfounded by a strange
and most wonderful occurrence. Two young
men , known throughout the world as the
Human Magnets , have dally been accom
plishing cures of the most chronic and ag
gravated cases that have for years defied
the skill and ability of the most eminent
and learned practitioners In fact , so truly
marvelous and phenomenal have , been many
of the cures effected that doubt and skep
ticism no longer exist , especially In the
minds of those who attended any of their
public demonstrations at the opera house , f.l
or who have taken the trouble to Investi
gate for themselves The Incredulous of
whom there wore hundreds prior to the
public exhibitions have been forced to ad
mit that Animal Magnetism In the hands
of these Human Magnets possesses the
most unlimited curative properties of any
treatment now known to the medical world.
Words fall to do justice to the many
touching and pathejlc scenes which dally
and hourly transpire In the private parlors
of the Magnetic Healers at the Paxton
hotel , as the blind , lame , sick and crippled
emerge from the treating rooms to join
their anxious friends In the parlors , their
step more firm and clastic and their facca
beaming with smiles and satisfaction , as
they reall/o for the first time In years that
finally there Is hope of their sure and per
manent restoration to a life of health and
happiness , and that greatest of all bless
ings health to bo accomplished without
the use of medicines
There has never been a medical practi
tioner in ihls part of the country who has
caused the excitement and comment that
have been occasioned since the advent of
these Magnetic Healers In this city some
two weeks ago , ami It Is no wonder that
such has been the case , for the cures per
formed , not only upon the public stage , be
fore thousands of the best citizens ol
Omaha , but nt the Paxton hotel in private ,
have never been equaled by any other mode
of treatment While many of the grateful
patlonts look upon their recovery as mir
acles , It Is not so claimed by these Magnets ,
and Is easily accounted for on strictly sclen
tlfic principles It is well known that these
two Human Magnets dally generate eight
times more Magnetism than the average
man , and the wonderful cures accomplished
are all produced by the transfusion of this
Magnetic force from one of these Magnets
to the patient
While it has been extensively advertiseJ
that patients would only be taken for treat
ment the first week , or from Juno 3d to
Juno 8th , there still exlstu the Idea among
many that because the Human Magnets
will remain In Omaha at the Paxton hotel
ono month , or to Juno 30th , that patients
will be taken during that time Therefore ,
to correct such Impressions , it Is now stated
that NO NGW cabes will 1)3 taken for
treatment AFTKIl SATURDAY , JUN13 STII
Tho&o who desire private treatment and
are able and willing to pay for same may
call at the Paxton hotel THIS WKEK
ONLY to Saturday , Juno 8th , where con
sultation , ah Ire and examination will bo
given entirely free
