FIRST GAME GOES TO PA
Opening at Vinton Park Victory for
Liifnan Over Ong nail.
NEW TEAM SHOWS UP IN GOOD FORM
mall Crowd latentlr Watches the)
Van. In thlllf Atigtogphere
Same T rani a Meet Again
Today.
With the mercury hovering ground 45
degrees above sero a goodly clump of
faithful fans saw the first tangible evi
dence of base ball for the season of 1904
at Vinton street park yesterday afternoon,
when Fa Kourlte new aggregation took
a game from the Originals, the local a.na
teur champions by a score of 6 to 3. Con
sidering the stiff Joints that had to be
loosened up and the unfavorable weather
for accomplishing the process, the game
was a good one and held everyone of the
attendants snugly wrapped In his overcoat
until the last man was out. The same
teams meet again this afternoon, when
even a better demonstration may reason
ably be expected. The Originals, who
opened with the Western leaguers last sea-
eon, took the first game and they went
in for the one yesterday, falling to get
which they are determined to make things
lively today.
Rourke's team presents mostly new
faces. Carter, Miller, Welch, Qondlng and
Henderson, of last year's bunch, were in
yesterday's game, and the rest of the team
were new on the Omaha diamond. Flake,
at short, was familiar to many as the
man who covered that garden fast sea
son for St. Joe, but Downs at second,
McCarthy In the boi, Cheatwood In center
and Schlpke at third were entirely new.
Thomas failed to get there In time to be
in the game, so Harry Welch was placed
on first and Cheatwood, one of the new
alabmen, put out to hoe middle garden.
Ca.rter la Good Form.
Bobby Carter's old friends were glad to
see that the plucky little southerner had
not lost the art of base running, but
rather had Increased his proficiency in It.
for he slipped three b.aes away lrum his
friends while they were not looking. And
Bobby still has that mean little faculty of
bunting " 'cm" and "oeatln' .m" to first.
Moreover, he has not lorgot how to Held
nor hit a ball when It's time. Bobby was
ono of the crowd who on this wintry day
played without an error. But U was no
fair to count errors yesterday. Carter
never made a much better play than when
he threw from deep right yesterday Just in
time to cut oft a runner at the plate who
was about to score and open the way for
two more runs, but Carter's throw retired
the side.
Qondlng, Captain Gonding, If you please.
Is the same old man. He's playing ball
every minute and then some. He managed
to plug out a hit when It was very much
needed, when In fact things looked so
squally that the Originals threatened to
take the game. It appeared to bo theirs
up to the eighth, when singles by Qond
lng, Welch, Carter and a double by Schlpke
turned the tables. Schlpke appears to be
"It" with the bat. He drove out two two
baggrrs and a triple, promising to sustain
the reputation under which he was signed.
Others Shovr Ip Well.
Flake at short and Downs at second
made some excellent promises. They have
It In them. Cheatwood was out of his
place, but while he rtuffed one fly he man
aged to hurdle after the rest hat came
his way in center. Old Man Dusty Miller
looked like he could still play the game
and Welch was all right In Thomas' place
on first. Henderson seems to have Im
proved some by his winter at Lake Man
awa and Dennis McCarthy, a new
friend, did nothing real censurable. In faot,
for the five Innings that Dennis pitched
he put them in with good effect, albeit
Henderson surpassed hlra In his four.
The Originals showed up in their old
time form and with most of iheir old men.
Harry JLawlor was up from ihe south to
cover short. The amateurs kept the
leaguers playing every minute and had
the game S to 2 up to the eighth Inning.

TRACE OF MISSING"" WOMAN
After Itpse of Two Years Jewelry
of Mrs, Boras Is Discovered.
CHICAGO, April t-The first trace of
Mrs. John C. Burns since her disappear
snce from a Chicago hotel two years sgo
was found today when James Taylor, a
negro, was arrested at Cincinnati. He had
In his possession Mrs. Burns' Daughter of
the American Revolution pin, engraved
with her name, as well as several articles
of Jewelry which bore her Initials. The
prisoner Is said to have disclosed the
hiding place of other Jewels which are al
leged to have been the property of Mrs.
Burnt The total value of the property
recovered is nearly 85,000.
About two years ago Mrs., Burns an
nounced that she was going away on a
short visit. Her husband was believed
to be In Europe. Taking several trunks,
but leaving many of her belongings in her
rooms, Mrs. Burns left the hotel, giving
Instructions to hold mall until she sent
her forwarding address. From that day
to this no word has been received from
her or her husband. Mrs. Burns was
prominent as a member of the Daughters of
the American Revolution, and also was
oonnected with the women's clubs, most
of the organisations to which she belonged
blng located In the east, where she re
sided before coming to Chicago.
CINCINNATI, O., April f.-It Is believed
that In the arrest of James Taylor here
the police may solve the big theft of
Jewels from the Palm Beach inn, at Palm
Beach, Fin., several weeks ago, in which
New York society people lost diamonds
and other valuables worth thousands Of
dollars. Taylor attracted attention by tils
lavlHh use of money here and detectives
arrested him. He had 893 In cash, two I
carat diamond rings valued at 8500,' a num
ber of pawn tickets and other Jewelry.
The New York police were asked to In
vestigate and today Chief of Police Milll
kln received a telegram from Inspector
McCluskey of New York asking that Tay
lor and the Jewels be held for Identifica
tion. PROBE MYSTERY OF MURDER

sex County Woman.
WESTON. Mass., April 2 The authori
ties of Middlesex county are investigating
the death of Miss Mabel Page, aged 4C,
whose body was found by her father, Ed
ward Page, a retired iron master, in her

her death. A note written by her ex
plaining that she was going to her broth
er's aid was found on a table. The brother,
however, was found to be in good health.
Miss Page was alone at her home for
several hours Thursday. During that time
her death occurred. Thus far, absolutely
no trace of the mu.-derer has been found,

the house undetected. He escaped In the
same manner.

LARGE AMOUNT OF MINOR BUSINESS
Mr. Maddos of Georgia Insists I'pon
the Polat af No Quo-ruin Veins;
Present and the Session Is
Adonrned.
WASHINGTON, April . Three hundred
and nineteen pension bills were passed by
the house today In two hours. Another
hour was devoted to rapid-fire legislation by
unanimous consent. In which a large num
ber of bridge bills and other matters of
minor Importance were disposed of. At the
expiration of this time Mr. Maddox of
Georgia, who had threatened to stop the
proceedings by a point of "no quorum"
when the pension legislation was nnlslieu
insisted on the point, and as there were
few members present the house adjourned.
The resolution for the appointment of the
members of the board of munugcrs for the
National Home for Disabled Volunteer Sol
diers was sent to conference.
The house then began consideration of
pension bills. The pension calendar was
cleared at I o'clock.
A resolution was agreed to authorizing
the commttteo on accounts to Inquire Into
the feasibility of conducting the restaurant
In the basement of the house "by other

IGKATU DISCVHSES LAND LAWS.
Mr. Warren Wants Public Domain
Absorbed by Settlers.
WASHINGTON, April 2. Mr. Warren
occupied the greater part of the senate's
time today with a speech attacking the
Gibson bill. He contended that the land
laws were beneficent and In the main
honestly administered, and urged that
there was no demand for repeal.
A conspicuous feature in the senate
chamber today was a large easel bearing
upon it a series of pictures showing the
effect of irrigation and the Wyoming tract
of irrigated land, which lias been the sub
ject of controversy in connection with the
debate upon Mr. Gibson's bill for the re
peal of the land lawa. The easel was
placed In the chamber at the request of
Mr. Warren, who had given notice of his
Intention to address the senate on the bill.
Mr. Warren did not, however, find op
portunity to speak at the beginning of the
day's session, Mr. Mallory continuing his
speech on the Cannack resolution looking
to an Inquiry into the legality of the old
sgs pension order of Secretary Hitchcock.
When Mallory concluded a bill establishing
a fish hatchery In Utah was passed.
The land law repeal bill was then taken
up and Mr. Warren proceeded with his
speech. He took a position In opposition
to the wholesale repeal of the land Laws,
and said that the demand for a change
already had been met by the senate In
Its action upon the timber and stone act.
He also called the attention to the fact
that the president had endorsed the rec
ommendations of the Richards committee,
which were in the interest of modification,
but not of the repeal of the law. Mr.
Warren expressed the opinion that we are
In no danger from the absorption of the

He added that he would be plensed to
have It taken twice an rapidly, provldod
it be taken by settlers. He said that mors
than one-third of the total area of tha
United States, Including Alaska, Is still
public, snd concluded that the government
should offer liberal encouragement to set
tlement. With a vnst area of 1,000.000,000 or more
acres awaiting settlement, Mr. Warren said
there was no need to have hysteria. Mr.
Warren asked how much of this area was
Inhabitable with or without Irrigation and
Mr. Warren quoted from the speech of
Mr. Gibson to show that there were about
60.000,000 acres of the aria regions fit for
Irrigation.
Mr. Warren said that in twenty-five
years about B.OOO.OtX) acres had been dis
posed by. homsteadlng and at this rate it
would take 600 years to dlnpose of what
was left. He said he could not agree with
all Mr. Gibson had said on the subject, and
he read from the government statistics
to show the publle domain snd the classes
of land Into which it was divided.
Mr. Patterson asked how the cattlemen
of Wyoming obtained their titles to 60.000
snd 60,000 acres of land. Mr. Warren said
the greater part of It was bought from
railroad companies to whom the land wss
given by the United Btates government
as a bonus for railroad building. He de
clared that the cattle would be better off
to have the land laws repealed so that
they could roam over the entire lands of
the states.
Mr. Gibson said he knew cattlemen and
that in his state there was not ons who
wanted the land laws repealed, and that
therefore his bitterest enemies were the
land laws. He denied emphatically the
correctness of Mr. Warren's statement so
far as Montana was concerned.
"I am Inclined to let the senator speak
for his own state," said Mr. Warren.
"When he made his speech the other day
he tried to speak for my state."
Mr. Warren declared that the movement
for repeal was due to the large land
holders of the west who hoped thereby
to enhance the value of their own hold
Ings. He admitted that there had been
abuses under the timber and stone act,
but said the senate already had taken
steps to correct that evil. As to the
charges of fraud It was easy to make and
not easy to prove them.
