To be sure Comiakey's American league

camp at the Vinton street .(rounds yesier
day afternoon to the tune of 7 to J, bjt
had tha local team had the practice thla
aeaaon that has been taken by the White
Bos braves, from Chicago, the acore may
have been turned the other end to. .
Thla waa tha third yame Omaha haa
played thla year on I la own ground, and
the firat chance the Omaha rooters have
had to aee the team play up to Ita limit,
.thlle the visitor have lvi playing under
".oi..y southern skies every day fcr a
month. And aa It waa the Chicago men
."d to keep going all the while to bring
about the desired reault. It waa not an
errorless game on elthor aide, but it waa
nappy all he way along, and though tha
crowd didn't have a chance to get aa
hoarse aa It would could Omaha bav
rnanaged to tie or lead In the scoring. It
enjoyed the game to the extent of nearly
a.ooo people.
The winter weather of Saturday gave
place to an atmosphere that waa aunny and
warm, and a large percentage of the spec
tator ware women togg1 out In all their
pring finery.
Green, the heavy hitting rlghtflelder for
the Chicago team, waa the fleet man up
and Henderson promptly atruck him out,
which put a.'oooC taste, In the mouth of
the fan and made them long for more.
Callahan got hi eye on tha ball, however,
and sent a aoft one down to Jack Thomaa,
who waa cavoHlng around the first bag.
Callahan didn't, have to run elx tp.
Don ho gave It a booat over Into the left
garden for two base and tho dance waa on
In good eafneat. Duodort lined It out, too,
but waa caught at second by a pretty
throw by Carter,' and It waa all over for
that half. Plake ami Down made single
for th home team In tho flrit and fourth,
respectively. M.t ether thin this the men
wnt out In one, two, tliwe crd-T, and no
n were mud up t the s'lxlh. Mean
time Green had made a three bagger In the
a:rond that wa productive of throe run,
ao that at the beginning- of the alxth the
acore waa 1 t get some. Two costly error,
on by Henderaon and one by Plake. let In
two more run for Chicago In this Inning
and Omaha went to bat with five run to
overcome. .
Carter popped a llttl fly to Tannehlll
and sat down. Plake sent one too hot
to handle down to second and got his
base. Then Dusty Miller proceeded to
bang It down to tha center field fence for
three baaea and aa Plake trotted home
with hla run a wild ahout of Joy rent
the heavene. Miller scored on Welch'
hit. though the latter waa thrown out at
flrat. Down went tha am way. Comls
key" men, made two more In the eighth
by virtu of a thraa-baggor by Sullivan
and an error by Thomaa. Omaha acored
another rug In th' asventh on Dundoti'
fumble and an earnd run In the eighth
when Plake hit It up 'for two bag.
Neither team acored In tha laat Inning.
Henderaon, who pitched, the flrat three
Inning for Omaha,'' and Llebhardt, who
pitched tha lattar part, of the game, both
ahowed good point that practice will
sharpen up. Owen, who wa In the box for
the visitor, waa in aplendld form and
pitched rh atrttre-gam In -hurricane
fashion, , HI pd ,frlends In Omaha were
glad to aee htm. The atar play of the day
waa made by Callahan, who atopped -a
hot liner off Downs' bat In a manner that
won tha.pUlrtUa -ot to ,crowd. .

BELLEVUE, Neb.. April 10.-(8pecial
Telegram.) With the despairing cry, "My
Ood, boys, what ahall I do?" a strange
man floating down In the Missouri river.
near here, this afternoon, loosened his
hold upon a large branch to which he was
clinging and aank from the sight of the
twenty or more excited people watching
hla struggles from the shore. When the
man went down he was upon a sandbar,
about 200 yarda from' the nearest bank and
llttl more than up to his waist In water,
but so nearly exhausted had he become by
hi effort to maintain hi position on hi
lender support, whloh was continually
turning beneath hla weight, that It la
doubtful If he could have stood alone even
without the powerful current to drag him
under.
No boata were to be found In time to aid
In reacue. The height of the river and
tho strength of the current forbade any
effort being made to reach the drowning
man by swimming. Almost before tnose
watching had time to decide upon a sin
gle plan of action, the benumbed unfor
tunate lost his hold and disappeared be
neath the surface of the water.
When the stranger waa first sighted one
mile and a half up stream from here he
was apparently hunting. He waa rowing
a light skiff; seemed to be about 25 yeara
of age; wore blue Jumper and overalls, no
mustache or beard of any kind and had
good control of hla oars.
In trying to croaa from one side of the
current to another the boat came In con
tact with a tree trunk protruding out of
the. water aome distance. Around this
trunk the witeq waa rushing with con
Iderable fore. In soma manner engulf
ing the boat. The man grasped one of the
dead limb of the tree, which gave way
and man and limb floated rapidly down
stream.
Several men, attracted to the bank by
the cries, followed on the run, shouting
encouragement and advice, but to no
avail, although the atranger aeemed cool
enough under the circumstances. No at
tempt has yet been made to recover tho
body. The man had no one with him In
the boat and aa yet no information a to
who he waa ha been gathered. Some
claim that they have reaaon to believe
him to have been a resident of Omaha.

Cnban Parlies Lack lasnea.
Th elections In Cuba show a most In
teresting situation. Three partiea are fight
ing for aupremacy In that Island and yet
no party has been able to make a national
Issue. The national party and tha ao-callsd
moderate party are somewhat antagonistic
to President Palm end hla admintat ration.
They feel that President Palma clings too
closely to the Piatt amendment and has
too friendly a feeling for the United States.
Both thee parties would like to have Cuba
entirely Independent and without en
tangling alliance. Th republican party,
on the other hand,' recognising that th
United State mad thslr freedom ponslbl
and their erection into the sisterhood of
republics a certainty, baa puraued the
course of conservatism, Insisting always on
cleavage to th Piatt amendment and all
therein contained.
A gentleman recently returned from Cuba
aaya the political partiea In that country
have failed thua far to make any national
laue; that their laauea were purely In
ternal, largely criticising the government
for failure to do things, tether theu for
doing thing badly. "Like vry other
country," he said, "that hs Just estab
lished Ita position In th world of republics
or of monarchies, political parties are cast
ing about for Issues. In the early days of
our own republic this condition obtained.
In Cubs, however, a much different propo
sition exists in thst a number of people,
how many I cannot say. feel that the Piatt
amendment, whlcg really make America
responsible for the seta of the Cuban re
public, should be abrogated on the part
of the Cuban people. Th thinking classes
of Cuba, while they recognise that America
made It possible for them to become a na
tion, feel that they are overshadowed by
the wings of the eagle, and the political
parties now In their formative stages will
crystallae Into a definite purpose and that
will be In the determination of th republlo
to cancel all obligation between the Vnlted
States and Cuba. One cannot live in Cuba
long without realising that one of two
things must be done. Cuba must be a
republic In all particular, charged with It
own destiny, or else It must be an Integral
part of the United States. Th Piatt
amendment was a mistake. Cuba should be
a territory of the Vnlted States, If not a
state."
Porto Rleo Wante to Borrow.
A few daya ago a delegation arrived her

ago haa been used largely In the construc

Succeeds In Harnessing tbe Wind.
Inventor have recently turned their at
tention to cheap power for lifting water
Dcmosthenea Phronlmoa, a Greek elec
trical engineer, residing temporarily In San
Francisco, haa Just taken out an American
patent upon a system of wind motors,
which seem to olve the problem of ob
talnlng great power (say from 100 to 200
horse-power) from this ever present source
of supply.
Heretofore the power obtainable from
wind wheels haa not exceeded fifteen horse
power for the reason that even to obtain
this limited force It wa necessary to build
tall towers and to employ wheels of great
.ength and spread. There are obvloua 11m
ltatlons to such structures, both with r
spect to the original expense and especially
because of their liability to become wrecked
In event of a storm.
The Invention of the Greek engineer coiv
slats in locating his wind wheel In a horl
sontai plane, and immediately below a
structure whose side walls are provided
with Inwardly opening flat-doors so as to
admit the wind from any quarter. Movable
vanes govern the direction of Impact of
the wind aa It Issues from this structure
and passe through the wind wheel. If
these vane are adjusted o aa to be paral
lei to the wheel blades the wheel will rtahd
atlll for th reason that the wind will pass
through It without exercising any driving
force. Then, by altering the adjustment of
the vanes, the wind can be caused to strike
the wheel blade with greater fore and
greater directness of Impact, so as to bring
it up to any desired speed, or again bring
It to ret; no matter how trong th wind
may be, blowing,...
The protection which the wheel receives
by reason of It Independent Support with
respect to the wind-receiving structure.
ana also the fact that this latter struc
ture Is provided with safety valve flaps In
Its top. all contribute to practically ellmln
ate danger of wrecking the structure even
In severe storms. When to this are added
the exactness of regulation as to speed of
which the motor Is capable, and the high
norse-power attainable, it seema unques
tionable that the system haa a promising
zuiure.

"I was a lover of coffee," says a New

been discussed In commit te room and
among senator and representative not
at all an Improbable date fof the termina
tion of the present session cf congress. Th
pension appropriation bill haa been re
ceived from th hiuse and reported from
the senate committee with au amendment.
Discussion of service pension legislation, it
la believed,, will be exhausted before th
bill la placed on Us passiige, and this meas
ure, therefoi-e, la n?t voualdsred a barrier
to early adjournment.
Tha army appropriation Is agreed upon
except to four amtndmenta, which are
In conference, and It I thought these
amendment will tut result In much fur
ther discussion In either body of congress.
The conference report of the agricultural
bill ha been agreed to In the senate, but
no action haa been taken by the house.
A second conference has been ordered on
th fortification bill on th nenato amend
ment for the purchase of a submarine
boat for Instruction In const defense and
making an appropriation for the eomple
Uon for a certain type of disappearing gun
carriage. Both the naval and the district
appropriation bills sre In conference.
The conference report on the Indian ap
propriation bill ha been made and la likely
to cause debate for one of two day. Four
additional Jays' Jtscusslon If looked fof on
the post office appropriation bill. The
amendments that have been adopted sre
not of a character that will tie the bill tip
In conference for more than two or three
days. It I expected that the surdry civil
bill will be veported from the senate 4om-
intttee on appropriation on Tueday and
the military acad.?my bill will be ready by
the time the sundry civil bill Is rassed.
It 1 expected that th genernl deficiency
bill will be reportd to the house not later
than Tuesday. No call ha yet been iasued,
but republican leader of tho senate antici
pate holding a meetlnir of the steering
committee early next week to agree on a
general program for the remaining daya of
the session.

Obataeles to Irrigation.
Th progress mad In the irrigation work
of ..he government Is reMewed In a publi
cation issued by the serological survey
which polnta out the .necessity of great
caution and conservatism In the extension
of reclamation work. It aaya that of tha
irrigation projects favorably reported In
1001, which Included those on th Truck
river In Nevada, on the Salt r'ver In Arl
sona, on Milk river In Montana, on Sweat
water river in Wyoming and on Gunnison
river in Colorado, th Nevada and-Arlsona
projects have been found tfalbt t ltd ton
st ruction on the engineer work along' th
Truckee and Halt rlvera haa ;.togrsd to
a resonabl extent Th Montana projtot,
however, ha presented unexpected . engi
neering difficulties aa wall aa compllcationa
regarding water righta, so that progress la
slow. It haa been found necessary to mod
ify the flrat place In order to achlev early
result. Th Wyoming project, aa first out
lined, has been found impracticable. A bet
ter reservoir alt than that on the Sweet
water river, however, has been discov
ered on the North Platte, so that a larger
scheme of development may be worked out
there In the future. Very great engineer
ing difficulties are encountered In th ac
complishment of tho Colorado project. The
amount of arid land thereby reclaimed Is
less, too, than was anticipated.
Coadnet Memorial Services.
Pursuant to a special order, the house
of repreaentatlvea today conducted mem
orial aervlce In memory of the late Repre
sentative Forederer and Burk of Pennsyl
vania. In addition to member of th fam
ine of th deceased, a large number of
Pennaylvanlan occupied seats In the gal
leries. Each of th long list of speaker
paid touching tribute to th two departed
member, som venturing Into the realm
of politics to demonstrate that Messrs.
Forederer and Burk had built up vast busi
nesses and acquired great wealth through
the protective tariff system.
Mr. Adam of Pennsylvania said that pre
viously to the election of Mr. Burk his
district, which was the old Samuel J. Ran
dall district, for ages had been misrepre
sented in congress and had been a blot
on the ctty of Philadelphia because it did
not represent the sentiment of th poopl
nor the doctrine on which Ita vaat manufac
turers were dependent for success. II de
clared, however, that the district had been
redeemed by Mr. Burk from democratic con
trol forever.
Those who spoke of th life and character
of Mr. Burk were Messrs. "Adams, Patter
son, Dalsell and Morrell of Pennsylvania.
