BUMMY BOOTH HAS A GREAT TEAM Omaha, Rportimtn Arc Prompt t Exerclee Their Rights a Heaters ad Maeh Game Therefor 8 offers. Nebraska, 4"; Orlnnell, 0. Mr. Bummy Booth tried to look as If ha had been attending a, funeral when the Cornhuskera soaked It 4nto the Orlnnell lot for the above acore, bat It was no go. Every time be pulled a long face hla thoughts would wander back to the game and the Showing made by his children, and a grim smile would peep from the corners of his lips. Forty-six to nothing! Not so bad when one considers that Grln rell, though not exactly a suitable candi date for the Big Nine, has a fairly good bunch of pig skin chasers, and Nebraska to wallop them at such a rate shows some thing of the stuff of which the boys are made. Forty-six to nothing! Mammal How good It feels to be a Ne braskan. It was magnificent and it was foot ball. The Lincoln lads Just had a walk away. These little practice games prior to the real struggles to come later ought to give the team confidence. And besides It gives various candidates a chance of dls tlngulshlng themselves. A happy feature about the games played Is that Mills seems to be quite competent In filling the place of center rush. This allows Borg a place on the line where he is of the most value. Glen Mason, who played fulj back In the team last year. Is back at his old place and Is doing better than ever. There is a chance of Ohio Nebraska Munn getting the parental consent to once more play the game, and if he does so he will make a decidedly Important addition to the team. Fenlon, one of last year's scrubs. Is trying hard to make the team this year, and with ordinary luck ought to succeed. In the practice games he played a good game at left half and this season Bees a great Improvement In his work. There is a general kick about Nebraska's right end, this being declared to be the weak spot "In the whole outfit. Robert son, Denslow and Redick all have been tried for the place, but critics say none Is satisfactory. As this is an Important posi tion Booth Is looking for one of those men who can outweigh an elephant, outrun an antelope and fear death no more than does a Jap. Q. C. Foote, R. 3. Btraetton and H. Han sen went up the river duck hunting last week and brought back thirteen birds and three bad colds. Of course they killed more birds than that; they said so themselves, but In a heedless moment the trio got Into an argument with the under currents of the Missouri and were spilled In the water. A lot of birds floated away. They, howover, managed to keep the tub afloat, saving their guns and the unlucky number of birds. II. A. Root went to Cody, Neb., Saturday for a try at the duck, and M. A. Hall and J. H. Dumont visited the Band Hills on the same quest. Joe Barker and Pean Duval bagged the limit of a hundred chicken last week near Gothenburg, Neb. Harry Townsend and Tom Blefkln got sixty-seven chicken at Hyannls last Mon day. The last matinee for the season by the Omaha Prlving club has been pulled off and the last race run, and now the ques tion arises whether the year has been ' successful. From the horseman's point of view, It certainly has, but those In au thority of the club declare it might have been better. The horses that entered and competed have been good enough, but the club expects more than BOO or 600 people to watch the races. The crowd would not attend. No blame Is attached to the com mittees, starters or judges. All ' have worked hard throughout the year and oft times under very discouraging circum stance. Programs that ought to have drwn 2,000 and 1,000 people hardly drew 100, and this without any charge for ad mission. But though the crowd did not attend, society certainly did, and what was better forgot conventionality and became enthusiastic. But to make racing successful there must be a wildly cheering crowd and this many horsemen declare will never be brought about In Omaha unless running races are Intermixed with the harness races. One man said that he has all the parapher nalia and can guarantee the horste if the scheme is backed up by the roadster club. At the Madison Square gardens tomorrow evening the entire atud of the late William C. Whitney will be offered for auction. The famous collection of horseflesh makes this sale the most important one of its kind ever held in America. Eight stallions and eighty brood mares comprise the stud, the stallions being Hamburg, Imp, Med dler, Yankee, Nasturtium, Ballyhoo Bey, Imp. Sandrlngham, Kilmarnock and Black stock. Of these there Is no doubt that Hamburg will bring the most money. He Is ths only stallion that produced two win ners of the Futurity, and this record Is all the more remarkable when It Is remem bered that In only two years he has had to produce In any number to race. Horse men say that $100,000 will not be too much for hlra. Imp. Meddler, sired Imp. St. Gatten and dam by Busybody, Is a fourteen-year-old tta anil ! nf rVitnntal flirt th winner i of the World's fair 150,000 stajcee. In, addi tion to this he has produced such ones as Tanya, Stalwart, Previous, Goldsmith, Cameron, Armenia and others. Tankee Is another son cf Hanover, dam the mare Correction, and It is said In time will be a greater stallion than Hamburg. He was foaled In 1899 and his produce are still sucklings. The mares of the stud are no less famous than the stallions and among them arc such ones as Admiration, Endurance by Right, Blue Girl, Tulla Blackburn and Urania. The yearlings and sucklings of this collection of famous winners are also animals that show good promise and they are sure to command high prices. The general prediction la that the stud will net over $500,000. LOCATED IN THE OF WYOMING 'Western Bankers, Brokers Lawyers, and Women, Too, Form Part of the Membership BIsT Hants Projected. With everything in his favor Prince Alert failed to beat the pacing record of 1:694 at Cincinnati last Saturday. Jack Curry, who was driving, was unable to keep him down, and the Prince broke three times shortly after crossing the wire, and had to be brought back again. He finally got away In grand style and w,as at the quarter In Z9 seconds. He went the half In E9Vi seconds and amid tho cheers of the crowd struggled to the three-quarter post In 1:26. But as he got away for the home stretch his stride shortened, and despite the masterly handling of Curry, Prince Alert could not keep the pace, finishing almost In a walk and in 2:03U- His owner said he was speed crasy and winded himself In getting away, but speed crazy or not the Prince will have to act in a moro rational manner at Memphis if he wants to win any money. . Last week being Ak-Bar-Ben week the games In the bowling league were not played, so as to allow the visitors a chance at the game. The big crowd that always was seen around the alleys showed the people out in the state are as eager about knocking over a pin as any "city dude,' Automobile News Items. Mrs. Be t Gallagher and son and Mrs. MacCormuo and son of Salt Lake City enjoyed an automobile spin Monday after' noon. Mr. Fredrickson took the party out to Bennington and return. The weather was fine and the roads good. J.

Automoblllsta of Chicago have taken of fense at a remark made by Corporation Counsel Tolman, who, It is said, Is au thority for the statement that "automobile owners are a law breaking bunch." The Indignation does not seem to be over the law breaking part of the sentence so much as over the word "bunch." The auto- moblilsts hotly declare that bunch refers to cattle, and that they are not to be classed with the bovine family. "It Is ridiculous to speak of us In such a manner," one brilliant young man retorted!, "for whoever heard of a cow riding in an automobile." V ,'-- "' I," ,jT Automobiles Come and Oldsmobiles Go.

The Rocky Mountain Country club, which 1 jus Just been organized by a number of Boston and western barkers, brokers and lawyers, Is unique in many ways. To reach It the members living la Boston and New Tork will have to travel 2,300 miles two-thirds of the way across the continent. They will go in special parlor car trains. requiring three dnys to make the trip. The site of the club, at Centennial, Wyo. is thirty-five miles from Laramie. It Is i four hours' stngo ride from there to the club grounds at the base of the Rocky mountains. But a newly built railroad from Laramie now carries the members to the club house doors in the Earns cars that they stepped aboard at tidewater on the Atlantic co&at. The expense ef belonging te this newest ef country dubs la something that puts It q.uUe beyond the reach ef men of modest mean. The entrance fee ef tLQO ta not large, nor are the annual dues, L0O; but these are the least of a member's expenses. Ordtrary railroad fare from Boston, In cluding sleeping ear and meals, will amount to about $200 for the round trip. If the lux- uxlee of a special train are indulged In by a small sized party of members the coat may be Increased to $500 or 11,000 each. Then there, are the expenses while at the club, which will amount to t-5 a week at the least, for board ani room. But out In that country horses are a necessity at every move. Saddle horses, carriages or a four-in-hand for a trip Into the mountains, with gold fa, drivers, camp servants and tent outfit, will easily run the cost up into the hundreds or thousands fur even a few weeks' stay. Clarions Sport. But the class of men who are members of the Rocky Mountain Country club bankers, brokers and wealthy professional men will not miad thefe expenses in view of the glorious times which they will enoy. The chluf sports will be stalking big game, hunting with the hounds, polo and golf. The site for the club's buildings Is just at the base of the Rocky mountains. In the near background loom up the rugged foothills and beyond, In surprising grand eur, towers the Snowy range, 13.5U0 feet high, the great continental divide. The Little Laramie river wlnda out rom the hills and takes an easterly course through the rolling pialna, These are the Greit plains that stretch, treeless and unbroken, for 700 miles to the Missouri river. You can see 1M miles In any direction. The location of ths club Is 8,000 feet above sea, level. The atmosphere at this elevation Is so charged with ozone that a person coming from the east Is thrilled and electri fied with every breath. These are some of the charms that ap pealed to Mr. Isaac Van Horn, the well known State street banker and broker, on his visits to Wyoming, where he has large business interests. He told these things to his friends in Boston. Wishing to enjoy some of the aceneo, they banded together to form the Rocky Mountain Country club. Mr. Van Horn Is the club's treasurer. Marquis Fayette Dickinson, one of Bos ton's greatest corporation lawyers, la presi dent, and Henry M. Whitney Is one of the trustees. Senator Francis E. Warren of Wyoming la an honorary member. Irving F. Baxter, United States district attorney for Nebraska, and Otto Cvramm, banker and ex-treasurer of Wyoming, are on the board of , trustees. The vice president of the club Is Fenimore Chatterton, governor of Wyoming. Limit of Membership. The club's membership of 250 will ba made up about equally of eastern and western men, and women, too. Women, In fact, are expected to be a very Important factor In the life of the club. Mfs. Van Horn of Brookiine. wife of the club's treas urer, is counting upon spending a long sea son there next year. She Is a fine horse back rider and a good whip. Her skillful handling of a tandem, pairs and singles on the Brookiine boulevard Is often commented upon. On one of Mrs. Van Horn's western trips with her husband she tried broncho riding, and declares It to be the best sport she ever had. Mrs. B. Frank Benett of Brookiine, whose husband Is a charter member of the club, will also be among the first women to fol low the hounds after antelopes and Jack rabbits on the Rocky Mountain Country olub hunts next year. 1 There will be no prettier sight than dainty, graceful Jean Dickinson, daughter of the president of the club, as she mounts her broncho hunter and Joins In the chase. Miss Dickinson carried oft the highest honors this spring at the Brookiine riding school exhibition, not only for riding, but for skill In handling a horse. She Is only 18. "Just a restful, quiet spot In the Rockies. where commercialism Is forgotten and the gentlemen of the east, with the gentlemen or the west. In congenial companionship, may nna rest, sport and pleasure," Is the way Mr. Van Horn expresses the objects of the club. Mr. Van Horn picked out the location for the Rocky Mountain club after a great deal of painstaking search. He had trav. eled over the whole west, from the British to the Mexican Una. He became Impressed that the Medicine Bow forest reservation of Wyoming was the most beautiful and fascinating spot In the whole west for the sportsmen a club. Last Bit of Vtrarla. Country. It is on the edge of the last bit of virgin country In our fast passing wild west. Railroads have not yet penetrated there. The cowboy still flourishes In his barbaric freedom. The hunter of big game und the hardy pioneer trapper are lords of the woods and mountains. Deer, elk and that rarest of all game animals, the big horn or mountain sheep, roam through the moun tain valleys and hide among the crags. The Medicine Bow forest reservation forma a great publlo park twenty ly twenty-five miles In extent, with snow- ipped mountains and primeval f tresis Hiftt can never be Invaded and spoiled by the settler and lumberman. On the nlghborlng plains are antelope and jack rabbits, the gamiest of all crea ture for a chase with the hounds. Then there are the coyotes the little yellow wolves of the plains, as good as foxes for starting a trail. Tou can scire up one of these or perhaps a whole pack at ary time acd have the wllde.it kind of i-hasu with the dogs. What more could a f)(.-,im.in wish forf Work Is now beginning on the prounds and buildings of the .;lu .it CentmnlnL There will be six b,ulldlns the club houte, the dormitory and dining hall, lha yolf bouse, the bowling alleys and the at Aide. These are to be molrn .bulliltnirs of a simple but picturesque tlU of architecture. The club season will be from June 16 to October 18. During tl.U time tie 1 1 mate Is perfect Aside from sports and a complete change of climate, the wlldneea nf the surrounding country jwlll appeal to eaetern men.

At a distance their lowing la like the murmur of the ocean on a shelving beach, heard far Inland. When they stam pede the earth trembles. The club members, by a half hour's can ter across country, may see the exciting soenes of a round-up, onttlng out. lnssolng. throwing and branding a wild str.er. This is quite Interesting to tbe onlooker. Then there 19 the exhilarating spectacle ox dust ing a 'woncho, which the cowboys of the neighboring ranges are only too glad tb go through with to astonish the "tendorfeet" from the east. These are the wild scenes of the plains. just as primitive today as they were before the Union Pacific opened up a connection to civilization thirty-five years ago. If a man has a taste for exploring a wild country, he can gratify that whim to the full. Taking a southerly course he can cross the Colorado line and travel 150 miles through North park and middle park, with out seeing a railroad and perhaps but one human habitation In a whole day's travel. All the while he will be viewing the grand est scenery In the Rockies. Boston Herald. As good in fhef alias it isiniliesiimraer II 0 ni-M Many men are working every dar who are, not sick, f,va.
