realised. It stands the highest for tta
wonderful cures of the most distressing

"Excuse us for today."
This expressed on a banner in the parade
was about the idea of the Retail Grocers'
and Butchers' picnic at Misaourl Valley
park yesterday. They wanted to be free
from business and they wanted to be In a
position to celebrate a holiday. Hence the
"excuse us." The precious boon of a rain
less day was cuddled up in the good feel
ings of all the grocers and of all the butch
ers, not the lessVso from the-forecast rumor
that rain could be expected today. But
the unusual number of postponements had
In some wise frayed the picnic enthusiasm
of the crowd, so that there were not as
many In the train aa had been expected.
But L000 people left Omaha and 3tf or 4u0
more Joined from Missouri Valley.
Before the train started in tha morning
about forty early rising picnickers, lead by
Oleson's band of twenty-Feven pieces and by
Ed Evans and George F. Munro with ban
ners, marched from Sixteenth and Farnnm
streets to the Mat on, v.h re the band blared
martial music while the crowd assembled.
One train of twelve coaches waa found
sufficient and pulled out at h.li decorated
with waxing arms and the advertisements
or David Cole. At 10:15 land was sighted
and the ptrk reached. The concessionaires
got Immediately busy in placing In commis
sion shooting galleries, baby racks, refresh
ment stands and financial concerns, wherein
the venturesome might place money and
occasionally win out a nlckle.
Start on the Games.
After the train had deposited the crowd
and everybody had taken a general survey
of the grounds the band gathered In, the
grandstand and emitted a gladsome toot,
which let the people know that what was
doing was In that direction. The Commis
sion men and' the Grocera were rolling up
sleeves and taking off collars preparatory
to a ball game. It must be understood that
the players were not as a rule the graver
and more prominent men in these business
lines, but rather those who will in about
twenty-six years reach that class.
. The ball ground waa one of those freshly
harrowed and harrowing affairs where the
easy balls do not roll at all and the swifter
ones burrow. The home plate waa the sev
enth page of The Morning Bee held down
with four brick-bats. S. F. Knapp waa
selected for umpire, he having served a
local creamery for several years. The Com
mission men went first to bat, but you could
hardly notice It The Grocers livened things
up with three men on bases, but they were
unable to deliver the order In time for din
ner. The second round waa a bloody mix
up, and each side pulled out two runs.
Rarden at short for the Grocera did a spec
ialty act with a grounder that would have
secured him an engagement on any circuit
aa a tramp Juggler. The third round
brought the Grocera another tally but the
fourth brought no business to either aide.
The band meantime In the grandstand di
rectly back of homo plate waa furnishing
Incidental music It was during the third
that Rita of the Commission men poured a
foul tip Into the E flat tuba aa Prof. Cam
eron waa busy pushing a sustained lower F
In at tho other end. The back rush of air
hurt the musician and the band moved over
about one chain west on the grandstand.
One Bright Spot. V .
During; this Inning the Commission men
did a little rush order business and de
livered a double play. Dauben marked
the cloud of dust where Howell's grounder
lit nd digging the ball out from the earth
slammed It In to Shortstop Brown, who waa
covering second, who in turn handed It to
first queering the round. The Grocera In
their turn tied up a few packages and
put the Commissioners out of business on
diamond Jilts when tha bases were full,
and let In only one score.
The fourth opened up with a long fly to
Foral In right field for the Grocers. He
played it for a can of peaches to all ap
pearances, and things looked good, but
Marsh spoiled the Commission men's chance
of a score by planting a dead one In the
diamond near Pitcher Howell's counter,
who did It up In a brown paper parcel
and sent it to first for him. While the
retailers were at bat, Leney took the oc
casion to send a low one down to Daubens
on second. Daubena assumed the position
of a man who has Just fallen three Inches
from the roof of a ten-story building, and
did some beautiful things with the ball.
But time was called without any points.
The fifth round brought the Commission
men three. Doe chucked a two-bagger
Into middle and carried one while the gro
cers wero passing the ball around to sea
if It waa injured. Fenwick'a out ended the
Inning. He had atarted to run to ee?ond,
but changed his mind and gave a life-like
Imitation of a grading machine. He was
excavated. The Grocers made holiday busi
ness In their half and won the game with
three runs, making the score 6 to I In tholr
favor. After Buffet had got a Job, Rarden
lobbed one Into the west lot, but Keep
was figuring out the profit on a case of
peaches and did not aee the thing In time.
It waa here that the Commission men's
training was against them. For while the
band played something dramatic, the Gro
cers delivered two runs. Just because the
strong-armed Commissioners used to pitch
ing pumpkins and watermelons about,
could not throw the little ball anywhere
short of half a block. The line up:

During the afternoon, following the bas
ket dinners, a desultory program of sports
ensued. A roadsters' race for (10 and t&
drew out homes that do not usually trot
for such premiums. The first heat waa won
by Extenuate In 2:3, with Ottur.iwa, sec
ond, and Axphall, third. The second heat
went to Ottumwa in 2 30. with Extenuate
second and Axphall third. Extenuate won
the third heat and race in :.2S.
During thla race a second ball game waa
begun between the Retail Grocery Clerks'
association and the Missouri Valley teauui.
This ostensibly, but not quite In reality.
The Omaha team had exported to play
Ottumwa. and Johnnie Gondln-. known as
Jonea. and Haiv Welch and "Dtiaty" Mil
ler figured In ti "n up. But the low
league team did r. appear and only part
of a team could be raised In the Valley,

opposition. The game was not sensatiortLl.

was between Bob Smith, carried by Prince

doesn't run any better In the primaries,
ho will not come under the wire. A gold
watch-was rafT.ed off. but no one turned up
to claim the time-machine. The nearest ap
proach to trouble came from the baby con
tests and the prise waltx. Five all beauti
fulInfants were entered and when ArveJ
Julius Johnson, child of Mrs. Charles John
son of Missouri Valley, was awarded the
dosen photographs, a mother was heard to
begin with strong feeling "Talk about

waltser was awarded to Miss Marie Jen

Marsh won the vox of cigars and danced
with Miss Anderson, who was a close com
petitor of Miss Jensen. There was con
siderable bitterness on the part of some of
those failing of the prise.
Among the politicians who were on hand
trying to look like grocers were Fred Hoy,
U M. Gonden, W. G. Schrlver, Ed Evans,
W. V. Bingham and Robert Smith. The
train left the grounds on Ita return at 6:50

SUICIDE THEORY IS WRONG
Indication How Ar That Tonne; Kll
patrlelc Did Not Kill
Himself.
NEW YORK. Sept. a. Coroner Brown,
who Is Investigating the desth of John D.
Kllpatrick. the wealthy young Nebraskan
found dead, shot through the head in his
apartments yesterday, has abandoned the
theory of suicide and today called upon the
police to Investigate the shooting on the
possibility that it might have been murder.
The position of the revolver, the fact that
Kllpatrick s clothing was not burned and
the absence of any ascertainable cause for
suicide, led the coroner to say that he be
lieved the shooting to have been either ac
cident. 1! or murder.
Coroner Brown adds thl theories that
Kllpatrick had committed suicide because
suffering from kidney trouble, or because
he had lost his fortune In speculation, were
disproved, the autopsy showing that he
had no kidney trouble and Investigation
proving that hla speculations had been
profitable.

S:10 p. m., after agreeing on a verdict quiet

that no verdict would be reached, and a
verdict of death coming about two hours
after the Jury was out waa a surprise to
every one In the court room. The reading
of the verdict did not affect Jett. but his
brother was very much dlstrejsed.
Elijah McKlnney served as foreman of the

to the court the Jury was polled. .The
death sentence was then read to Jett by
Clerk T. J. Robinson, after which he was
given over to the custody of the deputy
sheriffs. Colonel Blanton, Jett's lawyer,

Jackson, Ky., Jett and Thomas White were
sentenced to life imprisonment.
Blanton says Jett has authorized him to
say that he has nothing to confess and he
will make no confession. Tha Jurors agreed
among themselves not to divulge the pro
ceedings in the Jury room. One Juror,
however, stated that for four ballots
