Captain Stewart writes that ho can't get
hero until Friday or Saturday, The re
turn of "Mobile" Lauion and "Stub" Toman
will bo welcomed by their many friends In
Omaha. Thcso men were jirobably the
most popular of any who played with
Omaha last season nnd thcro Is n deal of
satisfaction that they have been signed
for another year
President Hourko was mightily pleased
yesterday when he received a letter from
Hill Krleg, manager of tho Tcrro Haute
team In tho Three I league. There had
been a dlsputo between Hourko and Krleg
relatlvo to priority of claim .on Aco Stew
art, who will play second base and cap
tain the Omaha team. "Well, I feel greatly
relieved," said President Hourko, after he
had finished reading Krlog'a letter. "Un
til now there hns been no cinch that wo
would get Stewart, although I was pretty
confident nil along that I would laud him.
Our claims on Stewart boro tho same date
and 1 had to make overtures to Krleg In
order to get him to surrender his claim
without making a fUBS. Ho has accepted
the terms I offered htm and for Stewart 1
wilt loan Harry Ncwmeycr and Balrtl.
Krleg will find both of thcso men satisfac
tory. -Thcro Is no doubt In my mind but
that Harry Ncwrneyer has tho making of a
rattling good southpaw pitcher In him nnd
Halrd la a crackerjack as a wan of general
utility. Ho camo to us last year toward the
cIchc of the season from Jacksonville, III.,
whore ho had been with tho Central league
before It disbanded. He played several
positions In the Held nnd proved himself
an alt-round man,
"I am certainly pleased at getting Stew
art without any trouble. Ho Is a crocking
good player and will bo a star In the West
ern league. As captain of tho team he will
be Invaluable to us. This Is what Hill
Krleg says of Stewart, and he knows what
he Ih talking about: 'You have my best
wishes for success this season and I am
cure you havo tho best second baseman
In tho business, besides the best field geu
oral In your league In Aco Stewart.' "
Speaking of tho men who comprise liH
'tenm President Hourko expects a great
deal from Kred Steele, ono of tho additions
to his pitching staff. "I bellevo I have
mado a great find In thla Steele," he Bald.
"Ho Is a fine, big fellow and has marvel
ous control of tho ball as well as a bunch
of curves that will set tho best of 'cm
guessing. Besides thlB ho fields his posi
tion elegantly. Last year ho was with
Tcrro Haute and made a great tear down
there. I candidly bellevo that Stcelo will
bo as good n man as was Tommy Hughes
and ho haa an advantage In his favor In
that bo has no bnd habits.
"I am very well satisfied with my pitch
ing staff. Frcelnnd wau put off watch last
season before ho had u chanco to show what
be could do, by Injuring his hand, but I
bellovo ho will prove a wizard. 'Dusty'
Coons, too, mado a fine showing last season
In spite of tho fact that ho had been sick
Just before coming hero. Ho writes that
he Is in flue shapo now and haa been spend
ing tho whole winter recuperating his
health, so that he couldn't feel much bet
ter than ho does. 'Dusty' will glvo them
nil a run for their money. Heust ought to
bo n wizard. Ho played with tho American
league at Clovoland last year and mado
a good showing, rrom his record, I am sat
islled that ho will glvo entlro satisfac
tion. "I enn't seo a weak place In my team un
less It bo behind tho plato. I want to got
an old-tlmo catcher, ono who Is long
headed and has had lots of experience. A
catcher Is of Inestimable nsslstnnco to a
pitcher, particularly if tho twlrler bo a
youngster. Eddlo Lauzon Is a good man,
all right, but I want to get another catcher
and havo my wires out for ono now. When
I get him landed I will bo content and
fcol satisfied that I havo as good a team as
there Is in tho league."
"Hip" Egan, who played with tho Omaha
team a short tlmo last season, la to bo
given a trial by Manager Donovan of the
St. Louis National lcaguo team this year.
Thcro was a time when Egan was a Orst
clasa twlrler, but ho has outlived tho days
of his usefulness, It his performances In
Omaha last year can bo taken as a criterion.
While In Omaha Kgan was troubled with
cold feet. For Instance, If ho wcro pitching
In a gamo whoro tho support was not of
tho beat "Hip"- Invariably cased up and
"The

seemed not to care a rap at permitting tho
opposing team to fatten up their batting
averages. Personally, "Hip" was a very
pleasant fellow and ho has many friends
In Omaha who hope that he will be suc
cesiful In his try-out with the St. Louis
team.
".Vow that the smoke ha cleared away a
bit," declared President Hart the other day,
"I fall to seo whero 'the American league
has damaged tho National half as much as
It expected to. There has been a great
deal of talk, for Instance, about the crush
ing blows dealt the New York and St. Louis
clubs, it strikes me the Now York club Is
better than It has ever been. Frcedmau
has his last season's catchers, as good a
pitching ttaff, with halfway decent sup
port, and a great young Infield, made up
of hard hitters oud ambitious players. Thu
New York outfield Is superb, especially In
stlckwork. St. Louis, with Wallace and
Heldrlck retained and I am positive that
Hoblson will keep them, In spite of all tho
talk of their going to Comlskcy has a
rattling good team. McGann, Padden,
Kruger, Wallace and Chllds for extras, will
mako a nice Infield, and what better out
fielders can be had than Donovan, Ilurkett
nnd Heldrkk? Philadelphia haa lost only
ono man that was really needed Lajolo
and ho has been off with Injurlca half the
time slnco ho played ball. Tho Philadelphia
club had to get along without him most of
last senson, and can probably survive with
out him this year.
"I seo that tho American leaguers say
they will not adopt tho rules of tho Na
tional. That Is only natural. If they
adopted our playing rides bodily tho fans
would say they simply copied us. I will
admit that thcro nro faults even In our
new set of rules for Instance, I think tho
number of called balls should have been ro
duccd to three but they will bo gicn n
fair trial In tho future."

W. D. Townscnd of this city, C. D. Llnd
rrmann of Lincoln and J. F. Heard of Her
man left Friday afternoon for Now York
to attend tho Grand American handicap
Bhoot, which will bo held at Queens, L.
1., all of this week. Frank Parmelco pro
ceeded them to New York, and upon their
nrrlval Nebraska will bo represented In
tho big shoot by a quartet of as able shoot
ers as could bo found anywhere.
The Grand American handicap Is the bin
event In shooting clrclc3 of this country
nnd none but thu crack shots presume to
participate In tho various events. In tho
past western shooters havo given good ac
count of themselves and It Ih by no means
Improbable that tho coveted cup will como
to a western man this year, and tho houor
might bo won by ono of tho Ncbrasknns.
The shoot opens tomorrow with a bcvou
blrd race, $3 entrance, and various other
events will occupy tho tlmo until Wednes
day morning, when tho big handicap shoot
begins. 'Iho mnln event Is for twenty-live
birds, cntranco feu of J2.', with a handicap
of twcnty-alx to thlrty-ono yards. The
prospects aro that tho attendanco this
year will bo a record-breaker. Last year
231 shooters entered tho lists In tho big
handicap Bhoot and tho indications aro that
this number will be largely increased.
"I am confident that tho Nebraska shoot
ers will bo well toward the head of tho
list," said Mr. Townsend before his de
parture Friday. "Kach of us la In splendid
shapo and thoro is no reason why we
shouldn't mako n splondld showing." All
of tho shooters who will represent Ne
braska this year havo participated In tho
Grand American handicap before, with tho
exception of Heard. Last year Llndermann
mado a flno showing. In the various con
tests preceding tho big handicap ho was
the, only man that mado a straight kill. In
all the events up to the handicap ho killed
every bird. In tho handicap Llndermann
killed twenty-two birds. The westornera
havo always been well In tho lead In the
big raco and Nebraska has frequently fur
nished shooters to defeat whom tho most
oxpert skill had to bo employed. Three
years ago Georgo Iiomls was tied for tho
cup In tho Grand American handicap with
a straight kill. In the shootoff ho was In
tho last team nnd killed thirty-four
straight, but lost tho cup at that.

Quite as much Interest Is being manifested
by locnl bowline enthusiasts in the scries
of games now being plnyed by tho Clark
sonn nud the Omahas us there was during
thu progress of the league race. This Is not
strange. The men who compose these two
teams rank among tho fastest bowlers In
Oni'itia and their exhibition!) of skill aro
well worth witnessing. Tho Clarksons and
tho Omahas ended In first and tocond
places, respectively, at the finish of tho
tournament. There had been a keen rivalry
between the two teams throughout the en
tlro raco and thu dispute as to thn su
periority of tho one over the other llnally
brought ubout an agreement for n race of
nine games for flf.O a side.
The first match camo orf at Clark's alleys
lust Wednesday night. It was witnessed by
n big crowd of spectators. Tho teams were
composed of virtually thoenmc mon who bo-
longed whllo tho tournament was on. Furny
was n new man with the Omahas and KolU
succeeded young Courad with the Clark
sous. Otherwise tho teams wcro the same.
Tho Omahas had, besides Kuray, Flanagan,
Head, Kmcry and Zarp, and the old guard
of tho Clarksons Dcumun, Urunkc, Lan
caster nnd Captain Clarkson were ou deck.
Ilecauso of tho undisputed skill of the
Clarksons they were the favorites In tho
betting for there was quite a bit of money
wugcrcd on the contest, but tho Omahas
bowled a magnificent same and defeated tho
mighty Clarksons two games out of thrco
and also won out on tho total number of
points by 171. Head, for tho Omahas, did
exceptionally good work. His scores In tho
throe games were as follows! 1S2, 233, 200,
an average of 203.
Six moro games remain to bo played be
tween these teams. Three will bo played
Tuesday night nt Clurk's nnd tho remain
ing Ibreo on tho Tuekday night following.
Tho outcome of tho contest is altogether
problematical. Tho splendid showing made
by tho Omahas Wednesday night Justifies
the opinion that tho Clarksons havo at last
encountered n foomau worthy of tholr steel.
Heretofore, they havo had full Bway In
bowling affairs, nearly overy club that pre
sumed to oppose them fulling down In tho
attempt. Kven the Omahas wcro unablo to
mako u really creditable showing against
them while tho lcaguo raco was ou, but
slnco theii the members of tho Omaha team
havo been practicing diligently and lmvo
now reached a point of excellence which en
titles them to equal consideration with tho
Clarksons.
In ono respect thn Clarksons have their
opponents outpointed. This is in the In
variable equanimity which characterizes
tho work of all of the members of Captain
Clarkson's team. No mutter what happens
Denman, DrUnke, Kolls, Lancaster and tho
captain bowl steadily und It Is ucldom, In
deed, that any ono of tho quintette loses his
head and tiles to pieces. With other teams
some vory minor thing often rattles tho
bowlers so that they aro unablo to accom
plish their best performance. This is true
with tho Omahas. In tho past tho Omahas
havo gone all to pieces over como minor ac
cident, such as tho failure of somo member
to bowl us well as tho other members
think ho should. The Omahas havo con
quered this weakness to a noticeable extent
lately und it Is possible that thoy will not
permit anything to perturb thom In tho
future. If bo, they will havo acquired one
of tho things which has promoted the suc
cess of tho Clarksons perhaps to a greater
extent than aught else.
It seems unlikely now that a spring
league will be organized. Tho several teams
which participated In tho winter tourna
ment aro not ovlnclng any decided interest
in tho formation of another lcaguo right
away, so that tho organization will prob
ably go by default. This docs not In any
measure, however, Indicate a falling off In
bowling Interest. On tho other hand, the
managers of tho different alleys assert that
thero Is as lively an Interest taken In tho
gamo now os at any tlmo during tho win
ter. It Is expected that tho opening ot tho
baso ball season will have a tendency to
divert tho minds of the bowlers Into other
channels, however, and thcro Is likely to to
a temporary letup in bowling enthusiasm.
Last summsr ou Saturday and Sunday after
noons when thero were ball games In tho
city tho bowling alleys wcro nearly always
deserted nnd tho proprlotors look for a
repetition of this during the coming sum
mer.
Tho Nationals, tho team which ended last
In the raco for league honors, ha3 ills
banded, Captain IJort Murphy, Jim Hoed,
R. A. Kolls and H. C. Davy havo deserted
tbo team and the only members of tho
original organization left aro "Billy"
Inches and J. C. KauTmanu. Inches and
Knufruann aro both playing with othor
teams now and the National team has been
shorn of Its entlro membership. Captain
Murphy has left the city and Kolls Is now
playing with the Clarksons, It is pos
sible, that tho Natiouals will be repre
sented in tho next leaguo tournament, but
tho membership will bo almost entirely
new. Inches nnd Kaufmann may reorganlzo
tho town beforo tho formation of another
leaguo, Tho career of tho Nationals was
rather a stormy one and tho fact that tho
team ended in last place was rather due
to a series of mishaps than becauso of lack
of skill on tho part of tho members, Early
In tho season tho team was practically dis
banded becauso of lack of Interest of some
of tho members, and when It was later re
vived It was too lato to mako any head
way in the pcrcontago column. If the
league season had continued a few weeks
longer tho gait the Nationals woro traveling
would probably havo landed Uiem up In
fourth or fifth place,
C. It. Drldenbecker's score of 279 at ten
pins continues Ui bo tho high score of thn
city. All of tho experts are trying their
level best to overtop Ilrldonbecker's score,
but their efforts so far havo been futile.
As a matter of fact there ore only three
posslblo scores higher than Drldenbecker's
and ono is 300, tho highest posslblo score
In ten pins. Brldcnbcckor mado strikes
In his first two frames and spared In the
third, making nlno pins with bin first bail,
Then followed eight straight strikes. If
somo fortunate player makes a strike lu
tho first framo and follows in the second
with a spare nine pins with his first ball
concluding with teu straight strikes, ho
will beat Drldenbecker's scoro by ono point.
Or if somo lucky Individual spares on cither
end In tho first frame or with the two
balls that a strike Ju tho tenth entitles him
to and makes a straight record of striken,
he will chalk up a scoro of 290, Ilottor
still it fortune smiles upon somo ambitious
player und permits twelve straight strikes
a score of 300 will bo tho result. Urlden
becker Is resting on easy street, however.
For mauy weeks Frank Flanagan's bcore
of 267 over at Clark's alleys was tho high
city score, and it appears Improbable that
anyone will soon capture the honor Ilrlden
beckcr now holds. One of the fascinations
of bowling, however, Is tho big element of
chance that enters Into all of tho games,
and with the large number of good bowlers
In tho city, It Is pretty nearly a certainty

Considerable interest has been manifested
in the match contests which Herman Ilcac
Hn and V. H. Kmery nnd C. Conrad and F.
S. Knnpp have started for the stato cham
pionship In all bowling games In which
small balls aro used. Jieselln and Kmcry
sonici time ago Issued n challcngo to meet
uny 'team for n championship raco and a
purso of $2,r a side. Conrad and Knnpp
woro given tho preference nnd they accepted
tho challenge. Tho first gamo was played
nt Clark's alloys Monday night. It was
at nlno plus nnd Heselln nnd IJmory won
by 7 points. Next Tuesday evening the
teams will meet at four-back, a week later
at live-back and then cocked hat, soven
Up and all of tho small ball games until
tho list Is exhausted. Theso men nro the
crack small ball players In Omaha and
their exhibitions aro decidedly Interest
ing. One of the promising young bowlers In
the city 1b Mllt D. McDowell, a popular
student at a local medical college. Up
until a few months ugo McDowell was never
Insldo a bowling alley, but ono gamo cust
tho die for him. Ho has over slnco been
an enthusiast of tho first water and Is de
veloping Into a splendid bowler, McDowell
holds tho high scoro for the monthly prize
at ten pins at tho Gato City alleys, with
2C6 chalked up to his credit. MoDowell Is
a couslstcnt player and his .average is woll
up near 00. In case a spring league Is or
ganized ho will probably bo pressed Into
service by ono of tho teams.
At the Gate City alleys Earl Sterrlckor
Is high for tho weekly prlzo at seven up,
with a scoro of 85. Over at Clark's Ster
rlckcr also has a record ot 80 nt four-back,
which von him tho weekly prize.
I. S. Hunter, John Kolloy, Charles Hosen
berry, A. Kortlang and G, H. Nelson are
tied for tho weekly prize at ninepins at the
Gato City alleys. Each has a score of S.
I. S. Hunter and W. J. I.lttlo aro tied at
ninepins at Clark's alleys with n scoro of 10
and will either dlvldo or roll off the tlo for
tho weekly prize. Slnco they can't dlvldo
tho hat offered by a local hat dealer for tho
best nlnepln scoro thoy will likely decide
both tics by a match game together.

lit you for married life and shorten your existence. Why not bo cured before it la
too lato? WK CAN CUHK YOU TO STAY CI'HKD. Wo hac yet to seo tho casn of
Varicocele wo cannot cure. Medicines, Kloctrlc Hells, etc., will neer cure. You

(nun! Studlm,
Tho Berlin defense to the Ruy Lopez,
probably the soundest of nil, takes on a few
now kinks each year. A few years back,
and after taking tho pawn, Black was con
tent to play 5 B-K2, preparing tho way
for castling, und only retreating his Kt-Q3
nfter White attacked It by 6-Q-K2. But
tho fashions change. Now, tho "correct
thing" Is to play 5 Kt-Q3, expecting an
early "swap" of queens. Tho games fol
lowing show two methods of continuing tho
attack.
