LINCOLN , May 9. ( Special Telegram. )
The War department han not yet sent defi
nite orders for the Nebraska troops to go
south , and It Is not known whether one or
both regiments go. This 10 leading to a
lively hustle between the regiments to see
which -will get ready first , and each com
pany Is recruiting as fast as possible.
The examinations of the companies was
completed today. The bands were the last
to be called before the board , and they went
Into the building shortly after 5 o'clock.
Yesterday and today the board made very
fast time , today's re-cord being ten compa
nies and the two bands. The fact that the
companies examined during the last two
day * lest a smaller per cent of men than
those first called In leads to the tcry nat
ural conclusion on the part of many mem
bers of the guard that the surgeons In their
haste to get through had become careless
ns to who passed. This will hardly apply
In one or two cases , however. Yesterday
the Norfolk company had twenty men re
jccted , and today the Tccumsch company
lost nineteen. The latter company Is the
youngest one In the guard , and Its members
were gathered up rather hastily when the
call came , which will explain the large
percentage ot rejected men. Many of them
were dropped out because they were too
light.
One IHuiHHT ItootlfliMl.
That the board In its baste did make some
mistakes there Is no question , but these mU-
takes were not all In the matter ot passing
men through hastily. For instance. Private
Wlttevcr of company I of the Second was a
once rejected by the board because he was
too light. The weigher said he tipped the
scales at only 121 pounds. Wlttever declined j |
to leave the room , and Insisted on being
weighed over. He was finally allowed to
get on the scales again nnd It was found that
his true weight was 131 pounds. His phy
sical qualifications being good , ho was ac
cepted. It Is possible that a number of er
rors were made In the matter of weight.
One man from York was marked down al
most twenty pounds below his real weight ,
but as this still left him within the limit he
made no objection at the time.
There was a good deal of talk over the
camp today by members of the guard who
had successfully passed the physical exami
nation , but declared that they would not
consent to be mustered In. In some cases
as many as twenty men In one company said
they would not take the oath and go Into
the United States army. It was noticed ,
however , that when the companies began to
be called up for muster , not a single man
backed out and they all appeared anxious to
take the oath.
The new canvas suits will be here to
morrow morning and requisitions are being
prepared so that the new clothing will be
drawn at once.
Captain Culver's troop of cavalry is mobil
izing at Mllford today and is expected In
camp here tomorrow , having been ordered
here for examination.
Cliff Walden , hospital steward , has been
appointed assistant surgeon for the exami
nation ot the troops.
The boys In camp are feeling good. Yes
terday there was only one man In the hos
pital. Today there are six , but none are
serious. There Is one man with measles
and one with mumps In the city hospital.
Taking the Flunl' Onth.
The mustering process began at 3:30 : this
afternoon , company K , Second regiment , of
Schuyler being the first to get through.
After taking the oath the boys stepped for
ward one at a time to sign their names.
Often as some > favorite member went for
ward the other boys broke forth Into cheers.
The companies to get mustered in early
were C ot the First from Beatrice , I of the
First from Bennett , O of the First from
Geneva and the company from David City.
There Is no particular significance In the
order In which the companies are being
mustered In , the ranking order remaining
the same as announced a few days ago.
Borne of the companies first on the list
desired to wait awhile before mustering , In
order that they might recruit up to their
full strength.
Brigadier General Bills returned this
afternoon from a visit to Falrbury. On his
arrival at headquarters he found awaiting
him a number of letters containing endorse
ments for his appointment as brigadier gen
eral and also some good letters from the
Nebraska congressmen.
Calvin Hopper , the member of the Tccum-
seh company who went away without leave '
and met with an accident on the railroad 1
near DeWltt. died last night.from his In
juries. He had been cared for at DeWltt
and the body will be sent to Burchard for

The Babes yesterdar lambasted the life
out of the cowboys. TEejr 4ld it In the very
first Inning , too , and then jollied along the
'rest of the time just to" see how the Blues
liked It , It was a 2 to 1 shot , the score being
There was a feeling In pur bones that we
were going to win , so that It was not so
much of a surprise , whatever the knocker
may utter. Young Mr. Pardee , whom Jimmy
Manning Is touting at something ot a second
Nichols , started out , but before the half
olUl the first Inning was over Manning stalked
Ulni to him , snatched the ball out of his hand
and told him to go and enlist. Mr. Meredith ,
another wonder , succeeded Mr. Pardec , but
11ai . Meredith also went up In a balloon
and between the haze and fog that enveloped
the plate and our batting eye , he , too , suc
cumbed. Between the two of them we gath
ered In ten fat runs and then we let Mr.
elV
Meredith come back to terra flrma.
Pardee started oat by giving Eustace a
press ticket to first and on his refusal to
give Grlffln the same the latter banged out
a single. Then Roat was passed to first and
Denny Lyons loomed up bigger than life
with a cracking two-bagger. That brought
in two runs. Mr. Pardec kindly filled up the
bases by giving Burnett another base on
balls , but Jimmy Manning would not stand
for any more and he bade Mr. Pardee crawl
under the bench. Meredith was sent In , but
he well , he was not much better.
He gave McCauley a base on balls and
that brought In a run. Then Holly made a
single and two came In. Fisher made a hit
'and Hagerraan made another , bringing in
McCauley and Holly and leaving two men j
on bases. Meredith was kind enough to
give Eustace his second passport to first
and once more the bases were filled. Griffin
forced Fisher out at home , but Roat found
safely and scored two men. Lyons got a
base on balls and Burnett another , bringing
In one more man.
That ought to count up ten. Anyway , Mc
Cauley put an end to the agony by flying
out to Slagle and Holly followed up with a
fly to Frlsbce.

We rested for a little while then and did
not try for more until the fifth. Then
Eustace singled nnd was brought home by
Griffin's second two-bagger , the first being
made In the second Inning. Rou : singled and
made second on Vlox's wild throw , Grlf get
ting around to third. Before three men
could be put out Griffin succeeded In passing
the plate.
The Babes picked up another In the eighth.
Burnett's first hit , MfcCa'Uley's second and
Holly's second and a wild throw by Slagle
did the work. The flnlal'Sfcore was captured
In the ninth on a two-bagger by Eustace ,
who was forced out by Griffin , and a triple
by Denny Lyons , Grit coming In.
The Cowboys did thetr Worst In the sec
ond. Williams went out,1 but Frlsbee landed
safely , even though itwas a bunt. He
scored on Holly's wild 'throw after Vlox's
single. Meredith fouled 'out , but Slagle
made a hit and Burnett dropped successively
Connaughton's"and MiVlcker's files. Those
errors brought in three rtihs , making a total
of four for Mannlng's-Indlans.
They came near getting another in the
fourth on two bases on balls donated by
Hagerman. Roat , hc wr-gobbled , Mc-
Vlcker's hot liner an'dVbefore Slagle knew
what happened fie was'- doubled up with
Grlf s assistance. 'Wilson filed.
They did get one , "however , in the sixth.
Meredith and Slagle each lined out a single
and before the next three menfwere put out
Meredith crossed the rubber. The act was
repeated in the seventh. O'Hagan singled
and while the Babes were killing the next
three men he slipped home.Again in the
eighth Meredith got a trl-socker and while
the next trio were being given it In the
neck he ambled In.
For a minute In the ninth things looked
bad. As usual the first man up , Wilson ,
lined one out. O'Hagan was nailed by
Fisher and Wilson was forced out at second
by Williams. Then Frlsbee made a hit
and Vlox got a base on balls. The bases
were'filled , but Meredith dashed the Cow
boys' hopes by sending an easy one to Lyons.

ance of the offer of J. J. Corbctt of $23,000
for an opportunity to regain the heavy

ized club offering the largest purse , but ho
will Insist on a side bet of $10,000 In each
case , and both matches must take place
before the last of September , this year. This
announcement Is accompanied by an offer
of Julian , Fltzslnimons' manager , and him
self , to bet $5.000 that neither McCoy nor
Corbett will make good his offer.
DENVER. May 9. After reading the As
sociated Press dispatch from Boston this
afternoon , announcing that Bob Fltzslmmons
had accepted his offer of $25,000 for an op
portunity to regain the heavyweight cham
pionship , J. J. Corbett sent the following
dispatch to W. A. Brady , his manager , who
Is in New York City :
Go after that man ( Fltzslmmons ) and
make my offer to him again $25,000 that I
will stop him in ten rounds and put up
some money. Show him up.
ROCHESTER , N. Y. , May 9. William A.
Brady gave out this signed statement today :
James J. Corbett stands by the offer ho
made Robert Fitzslmmons to make a match
for a $10,000 side bet and will guarantee
the champion of the world $25,000 If he ,
Corbett. falls to stop Fltzslmmons In ten
rounds ; and he further agrees that the
match shall take place before the last ol
Seoteraber. this year , and If no club offers
as large a purse as $25,000 Corbett will de
posit the balance , the whole amount to be
paid to Fltzslmmons In case Corbett falls
to knock him out in the stipulated number
of rounds.
As Fltzslmmons has now announced thai
he will fight again. It remains to be seen
whether he will take on the man be has
all along claimed to be able to whip so
easily. He is positively assured of $25,000
In case he stands ten rounds in front ol
Corbett , and $45,000 In case be wins.
This Is the offer Corbett made to Fltz-
elmmons last February and he now stands

day named.
I will be In New York Wednesday and
will meet Fltzslmmons and his manager to
deposit money to make the match.

BABY COVERED
WITH
SORES & SCALES
Could Not Tell What She Looked
Like. Got Worse with Doctor's
Medicine. Could Not Sleep
From Intense Itching.
CURED IN ONE MONTH BY CUTICURA
When my baby was four months old her
( kin broke out , and I thought it was ring
worm. I took her to a doctor and he said It
was Eczema. Ho gave mo medicine to glv
ber , but she kept getting worse all the time ,
and you could not tell what she looked like ,
her llttlo face and hands were so covered with
sores and large scales. It got under her little
' anger nails. She was the wont looking sight
I over saw. I heard of CuncuitA REMEDIES ,
so I thought I would try them. Before I tried
them wo got no rest at night. She could not
sleep it itched so. After I gave her CUTICOHA
Itr.ioLVE.VT , / mw a change in a trtit. It
commenced to dry all up and she would sleep
all ulglit , and when It was drying up the skin
all cracked open , so then I got CITTICURA ( oint
ment ) and CUTICUIUL SOAP , and in one month
the had not ant lore on her fact , and I don't
think it U anymore than Justice to let you
know what it has done for my baby. 8bo now
Is fifteen months old and lias got beautiful
skin. She doesn't even have a pimple of any
klnil , and iba is as fat as pudding.
