I About forty-five members of the Omaha Heal Estate Exchange, In the presence of a large number of friends and a still larger number of small boys from the north end of town, played a new game, or a combination of a number of games and sports on the Toung Men's Christian association grounds at Seventeenth and Flnkney streets yesterday afternoon. The port commenced at I o'clock and ended a few minutes before S o'clock, by which time all those taking part and also all the spectators were ready to quit and go home. ftora start to finish the sport waa In- and Dave told him to go ahead or he would tereating and at times exciting. It was I not give him any good marks. And he than before he waa hit. Everybody said it was mean for Eddie to hit Willie In the head, but Eddie said that waa the bnly place he could hit Willie, for when Willie was measured before the games started It was found that he was 8 feet and I Inches long but only 64 Inches wide, so his head was the biggest part of him. Before he was hit Willie stood with his feet far apart and let all the balls go through between his legs, but after he m hit he kept his feet together and topped them. Bome of the boys who only played with their voices wanted Eddie Btoltenberg to hit the other lean boys In the head and make them play better, but he would not do It because he wanted the fat boys to win. Johnnie Robblns didn't hit the ball at all, but about the eight round he did the best tumbling of all of them. He ran to catch a ball, and did catch it just as It was touching the ground. Then he turned a front somersault and then two side somersaults, and then after a while he quit rolling around and got up. But he held onto the ball so the boy that hit It could not play any more that round. Joe Piper stopped the game one time when It waa his turn to hit the ball and asked Dave Patterson if anybody was counting balls. There waa only one ball due to the excitement that no name. was given It but a special committee will be appointed at the next meeting of the ex change to llnd, if possible, a name suitable to It. More than half of the real estate men present elected to play simply with their feii in. and acted as Interrupters. Inter fere and Incompetents during the entire game. A gentleman who watched the l sports from a house about a block away declared that he thought they were act ' lug the part of Idiots, Imbeciles, and ln ' ebriates, but on being quet1oned closely admitted that he had dyspepsia. Captains Choose Sides. The fun wes started by Willie Bhriver and Willie Gutea, each selecting eight other boys for a "side." Willie Bhriver had first choice and said he liked the fat boys best so he took Willie lire, Eddie Btoltenberg. Johnnie Frenxer, By Hastings, Wllllo Thomas. Bertie Farmalae and Hen Dalley for his side. Willie Gates said he would take the lean boys so he picked out Frankle v Haskell, Blakey McKltrick. Btanny liostwlck. Freddy Wead. Eddie Blater, Nate Dodge, Johnny Robblns and Joe Piper for his side. Willie Shrtver slipped Bertie Parmalee Into his side when Willie Gates was not . looking, for Bertie Is not a real estate t man at all, but a newspaper man. Willie Gates was game all the way through and . did not roar at all, even when Bertie ran around all the stations four times, which waa once more than any of the real es . tate men. Dave Patterson was relucted to keep a record of the sports, and so that everything would be regular Assistant Sec '" retsry Jones of the Young Men's Christian ! association, was sejected as referee, and Lew Bholes was delegated to assist him and see that the runners stepped on all the bags at the stations when they were , running around. Eddie Btoltenberg and Willie Ure were elected to throw and catch the balls for the fat boys, and Blakey McKltrick and Frankle Haskell to throw and catch them for the lean boys. Eddie and Willi were a whole lot better than Blakey and Frankle. I-on Tukey, Ras Benson, Georgte Wallace, Willie Green, Georgle Holbrook and soma of the other boys who played with their voice said it was because they had the biggest bo to back them up and bad Bertie Parmelee on their side. Kat Hoy Hits Lean Boy. Druggist Kuhn. who has a contract to attend all the games played by the mud pie boys, and Dr. Fred. F. Teal were pres. nt. but only a little cold water and some witch hasel wre required. This was about the fourth round, when Eddie Btoltenberg of the fat boys threw a ball and hit Wl'lte Gates in the head. Wllllo f down, but m. u rlnt ,n nJ bSU- did not, for Joe could not hit even ths, one ball. When It got lost In the weeds they borrowed one from a little boy in the north end of town who had coma down to see the game. Willie Green Causes Trouble. Wllle Green also made some trouble, be cause he wanted them to throw the ball around to the different stations there were three stations a fter the boy that hit it, and said if they did not do that they could not make the boy quit playing. Lou Tukey said that was not the way they used to play down In the state of Maine, but Wil lie Green said he had three ribs broken the last time he played, so he ought to know. But Mr. Jones, the referee, said it waa all right to throw the ball any old way. and that It did not put a man out if the ball hit him when he waa running be tween the stations. At first all of the boys were trying to hit the byoya who were run ning, but Mr. Jones said they must try to throw the balls to the boys at the stations and let them touch the other boys with It. Willie Ure and Ernie 8weet. who took Hen Dalley's place, and some of the other boys would tall down In the dust when they were running and trying to get to the stations, So that they will have to get some new clothes. And some of the boys ob jected to quitting trying to hit the ball when Mr. Jonea told them to, because the boys who played only with their voices told, them to keep on. But Mr. Jones would make them quit Just the same. Tommy listen played for Btanney Botwlck the last few rounds because Btanny stepped on his hand when he was running around and could not play any mora Dave Patterson gave all of them these good and bad marks: FAT BOTS. 1 2 3 ..1 1 ..1 1 ..1 0 ::i .0 0 ..1 ..1 0 ...0 Ia Rita, which won the first race, was fourth; Pilot fifth.

FOR THE COMING OF CRESCEUS Trt-Clty Driving; CInb Will Make the Event an Important Occasion for Omaha. The Trl-Clty Driving club held a well attended meeting at the oflic.es of Floyd J. Campbell last night to arrange for the matinee at which Cresceus, the world s champion trotting stallion, 2:02Vi, is to ap pear, on Saturday, September 18. A com mittee, composed of F. A. Nash, T. C. Bvrne. C. C. Kendall, Charles Crelghton and Floyd J. Campbell, waa appointed to arrange for the ordering of the events of the matinee. As arranged for at present, the events will Include races In two classes of the matinee horses and competitive classes In children's saddle ponies, gentle men's runabouts, matched teams hitched to station wagons and, perhaps, ladles' saddle horses. The latter competitions are something entirely new to local horse-lovers and bor der somewhat upon the horse show, as the points In the contest are based entirely upon the appearance ofethe horses and the trappings. Ths classes have been kept down to a small number In order that the entry Itst may be aa large aa possible in the different classes. The results of the competition are expected to give an Indi cation aa to the spirit with which Omahaus take hold of the idea of a horse show next fall and everything will be done to stimu late interest In this part of the program. The report of the committee on the track showed that the work and the money spent by the association on the track so far has proven of great good to the track. It has been shortened so that It is exactly one-half mile In length and Its surface Is In better condition than ever beore and It will be bettered even more before Cres ceus makes his appearance. Aa Cresceus will probably be in Omaha for three or four days particular pains will be taken by the association In arranging for the caring of the stallion. Two of the box stalls In the stables at the track will be combined and relied overhead for his use. Special trainers travel with the fa mous trotter and one of them. Bleeps In the stall with him each night. According to the contract Cresceus will trot an exhibition mile on Saturday. This will be his only appearance In Nebraska wimout a nouDt. as nis owner nas prac tically decided not to send him to Lincoln, as was rumored for a long time. A membership committee was elected to examine the standing nf applicants for membership hereafter. The committee as eiectea is composed or v. A. Nash. J. W. Carr. C. C. Kendall, E. P. Peck and F. S.

NEW YORK, Aug. 29. For the first time In the history of America's cup contest a race has been postponed on account of too much wind. Today the third of the present series of races was to have been sailed. Following the futile attempt of Thursday, when there waa not enough wind to complete the race within the time limit, it waa earnestly hoped by yachtsmen that today's contest would be decisive and the series com pleted. Ten hours after Thursday's drifting fail ure a storm broke over the course and raged about Bandy Hook. The water was tumbled into waves that troubled even an ocean liner. , The wind blew with a velocity estimated between forty and fifty miles and the rain driven before it obscured the vision beyond a mile or two. Within the sheltering bend of Bandy Hook, where the two racing yachts rode at their mootrnga, the water was compara tively quiet this morning, while across the sandy peninsula on the ocean side the surf boomed as It broke upon the beach. At 7 o'clock the regatta committee met at the New York Yacht club house and decided to postpone the race for the day. The meeting was then adjourned until 1 p. m., when a derision as to a race was reached. In the meantime a tug was sent to Sandy Hook to secure the feeling of Mr. Iselln and Sir Thomas Llpton In the matter and upon the return of the tug definite action was taken. A prominent member of the Yacht club aid this morning that he waa in favor of a race Monday, and now that Sir Thomas has openly expressed himself on the abili ties of both boats and acknowledged him self defeated, It was thought advisable by many of the members of the Yacht club that the race be started Monday and the races be completed as soon as poaslble. The committee named Monday as the day for the next race. It was also decided to hold the races every day thereafter until the international contest Is decided. Want the Crewe Chnnged. LONDON, Aug. 29. A cable dispatch was sent to Blr Thomas Llpton today offering to guarantee the expenses if he will agree to a series of five races between Reliance and Bhamrock with their crews exchanged. In approving of Bir Thomas' reported de termination not to challenge again for the America cup. the Globe this afternoon voices the despair which marks all the comment on the cup racing, by saying: There comes a time when constant and Inevitable defeat wearies even the most enthusiastic, and Bir Thomas Is well ad vised to relinquish the struggle, while his Fluck is so generally recognised and be ore his failures have become a Jest. While the American yacht builders are so su perior to their English rivals, we are not likely to regain the cup. Braver Crossing; 1, Geneva O. GENEVA. Neb., Aug. 29 (Special.)

POWERS SENTENCED TO DIE Jury Ey$ He is Guilty of the Murder 2, GoebeL third trial and extreme penalty Fonnd Gallty Twice Before, bat In Each Case Ho is Allowed to Escape with Imprison ment for Life. GEORGETOWN, Ky.. Aug. 29.-The Jury In the case of ex-Secretary of Btate Caleb Powers, charged with complicity In the con spiracy to murder Governor Goebel, today found the defendant guilty and imposed the death sentence. Powers was sentenced to Imprisonment for life in his former trials for complicity In the conspiracy. It was on his motion that be secured the new trials each time. The verdict today caused great excitement among the friends of the other defendants In these cases. Aaxtoaa Crowd' Fills Room. The third trial of the defendant closed shortly before noon. Several hundred peo ple crowded the court room when the ver dict waa read and Intense silence prevailed. The Jury was polled and each man declared the verdict of guilty to be his finding. Pow ers sat unmoved while his attorneys asked for time to make a motion for a new trial. Arthur Goebel broke down from the strain on hearing the verdict of guilty. The Jurora decline to state what occurred in the Jury room. Arthur Goebel, ths brother of the victim, Is a prominent merchant at Cincinnati and he haa spent his time and fortune for over three years In the prosecution of those accused of. being Id a conspiracy to kill his brother. ' Fonnd Gallty Three Times. Powers haa been convicted twice before, this being the third trial in which the Jury brought In a verdict of guilty against him. On his previous trials he escaped with a sontence of life Imprisonment. All three of the trials were held at Georgetown and in each of them he had the assistance of the moat able lawyers who could be procured. Subscription lists were circulated in his Interest by friends and a sum of money was secured to defray the cost of his repeated trials and the investigating of the clrcumtancea which preceded the killing of Governor Goebel, in the Interest of the defense. The last trial was distinguished by the fsct, that Power addressed the Jury in his own behalf, and In a long review of the case showed himself to be a very competent attorney, while his eloquence In pleading for his life astounded those who had watched hlra carefully in the past trials of the case. Powers has already been three years In prison - on the sentence of the previous court. Powers had nothing to say regarding the verdict except to express his surprise thst such a result could be reached and to an nounce that he would take an appeal and continue the case to the last resort. When Powers secured his former new trials a majority of those on the appellate eourt were republicans, but ft is now com posed of democratic Judges. As Commonwealth Attorney Franklin hook hands with each Juror after they were dismissed. Powers watched the greet ings closely but at no time did he show any sign, of breaking down. Powers Is regarded aa a atrong man. He was elected secretary of state on the re publican ticket, headed by W. 8. Taylor for governor in 1899, but served only a few months as all the state offices were con tested by those on the democratic, ticket, headed by William Goebel.
