in a well played game of bare ball at
Vinton Street park yesterday afternoon the
Crelghton university team held the Omaha
Hangers down to eleven hlta and seven
. run. The game should not be Judged so
much by what the 'varsity b.jys did to enlarge-
their own score, but rathsr what
they did to keep the Rangers down to
hardtack. The collegians were In the game
evtry minute of the time, and so were the
Rangers. Manager Callahan and Captain
C'relghtrm may well feel proud cf the string
ot players composing th Crelghton team
this season, and If they but keep up the
lick for the balance of the season there
will bo something stirring in collegia te base
ball this season hereabouts.
McCormlck pitched the entire game for
the Crelghtons and maintained a uniform
control of the ball up to the last. With a
little strengthening of the Crelghton Infield
the team will be In a position to look any
amateur club In the face.
The Crelghtons failed to acore until the
eighth, when Eddie Crelghton called the
Inning to order by sending out a hot cen
ter field drive good for pamsage to first.
Then Garvey made a three-base hit to the
right field fence, Crelghton scoring. Oarvey
started to run In on the play to third to
catch Crelghton and succeeded In scoring
on a passed ball by Freese. English walked
and stole second and third bases, but win
left at the water tank when McCormlck
struck out.
The Rangers commenced to score In the
fourth, Oondlng and Pflester getury to
bases on errors and scoring when Thlel
sent out a double. It was a roundrobln for
the Omaha team In the fifth, every man
having a' time at bat. Howard, with a
vicious center field drive good for three,
brought In Welch and Dolan, who had
walked. Howard scored on a hit by
gchlpke and Freese ran In on a hit by
Thlel.
For the last three Innings the Crelghtons
kept the "Champs" down to three hits and
Dne run. In the three innings McCloskey
pitched for the Rangers he struck out five
of the ten men up. The weather was any
thing but pleasant and the attendance
small. The score:

Last Bl Basket Ball Event.
Will the Omaha Young Women's Chris
tian association first basket ball team de
feat the University of Nebraska young
women's team at Oermania hall Friday
evenlngT That question is the living issue
at present in basket ball circles, both in
Omaha and Lincoln. The last big basket
ball event of the local season will be held
Friday evening at Qermanla hall. For the
preliminary event the Omaha association
second team will meet the young women's
team from Bellevue college. That contest,
it la believed, will get the fans In the right
frame of mind for the main bout of the
evening between the Omaha association
girls and the 'varsity girls.
The University of Nebraska young
women's team holds the proud record of
only having been defeated but once, and
on that occasion by the University of Min
nesota team, which the Omaha girls played
at Minneapolis last week, losing the game
by only one point.
With this record to juggle with it la evi
dent that there la not much disparity be
tween the Omaha and Lincoln teams. The
Information comes from Miss Mary Meeker,
director of athletics at the Omaha asso
ciation, that Friday evening's contest will
be closely contested by both teams, as
the result means much to either side. The
lineup will be:

NEW OMAHA DIRECTORY OUT
Volume Shows that Omaha Has Grown
During the Last Year.
POPULATION NEARING 1890 FIGURE
Cariosities of Patronymics Offered by
the Book Show the tsoal Record
of Queer and Common
Xante.
The new Omaha directory is a bird. It
may even be called a bird of paradise, for
Its plumage is a lovely green on the wings.
Its back la a thrilling red, picked out with
silver, and underneath It is ft pure white
mottlet with printers' Ink. The tall, which,
as Bill Nye said, ia Inside, Is a tale of
growth. Whereas the directory of 1904 con
tained 67,862 names, the new book hold
69.000. After deducting from these numbers
the names of churches, schools, business
houses and similar Impersonal registration
and multiplying the remainder by two and
one-fourth the population if found to be
12V,a, as agulnst 124,891 for lust year, a
gain of 2..159 souls, mostly wugeearners.
The new book, in addition to its beautiful
appearance and the new names included,
presents no real novelties for the student
of directories. The many persons with
whom the directory is so deservedly popu
lar as a book will be apt, after reading
through the latest addition to the series,
no put it aside with a sigh and say of the
author:
"Yes, its amusing and entertaining and
good stuff of Its sort, but really, you know.
he has nothing new to offer; his Jokes and
anecdotes are a reprinting of the old ones
we laughed at In 18S9. In his younger days,
when the city grew five or six thousand
in a year, there was a piquant novelty and
freshness In the characters and the situa
tions. But he's only repeating himself
now."
In spite of the marked similarity be
tween the 1905 volume and those which
have preceeded it recently, it Is probable
that "Mrs. Wlggs" and "Richard Carvell"
and the rest of the good sellers will never
be more prized In this city or found oti
more shelves than is the Omaha directory.

LEWIS TALKS TO TEACHERS
Former Principal of Omaha High
School Contrasts Eastern and
Western Slethods.
Nearly every principal and teacher, in the
public schools listened to Superintendent H.
P. Lewis of the Worcester (Mass.) schools
make a short talk at the city hall yester
day afternoon. Mr. Lewis was for years
principal of the Omaha High school and is
here on a visit. He was warmly received
both by Superintendent Da.vldson in his in
troductory remarks nnd by his audience.
His humorous thrusts and stories made
what he had to say anything but uninter
esting. "Moral education is entering as a new
factor in the schools," said he. "We are
likely to have all sorts of discussions with
relation to religious Instruction. I think
you are fortunate here in having no re
ligious Instruction in the schools; also be
cause you do not have the Bible read in the
schools. I do not need to repeat the disad
vantages of having the Bible read. We are
compelled to do It In Massachusetts by law.
There Is a question as to what Impression
It makes, the irreverent way in which It Is
heard, and so on. I have an idea that we
can do a great deal of work In morals
without any reference to the religion we
believe in, except with relation to the effect
It has had upon civilization generally. I do
not believe we need to ask the aid of the
church In doing our share, and I do not
mean to speak disparagingly of the church
and its work or the aid of the home. Morals
can be taught without religion. We are
fighting it out now on that line in the east."
Superintendent Lewis contrasted eastern
educational methods with those of the west.
"In the east," said he, "the school sys
tem started at the top and worked down. It
began with Harvard and gradually got to
the lowest grades. In the west the develop
ment was the reverse and I think this has
been to the advantage of the west. The uni
versities are built upon the lower schools
and seek to round out and accomplish the
work. In New England we actually suffer
from slavery to Harvard college. In nearly
every meeting of educators the tyranny of
Harvard Is complained of. It causes all the
energies of the lower schools to be directed
to preparing for college. This sometimes
Imposes a strain on the high school that ts
near the breaking point. In the west you
make the schools what you think they
ought to be and let the colleges take care of
themselves. Most of the enlivening educa
tional movements that have afTected mod
ern methods have started in the west."
Superintendent Lewis gave it as his opin
ion that reforms are needed in the teaching
of arithmetic and geography, so as to have
less of the former and the latter taught in a
way so that the influence of things upon
affairs be impressed upon the pupil, to
gether with the enlargement of the study
to Include history, nature tudy and pos
sibly civil government. He said that Wor
cester was experimenting with manual
training from the third grade upward, the
same as Omaha, and remarked that the
work In this city seemed to be going for
ward with the greatest success. He con
gratulated the teachers upon having Su
perintendent Davidson at their head.

CURRENT LITERATURE.
At this time when so much of public at
tention is directed toward the Standard Oil
company and the contributions of Mr. John
D. Rockefeller, one of the founders and
magnates of that company, to benevolent
and educational work are being so widely
discussed pro and con, the publication In
two volumes of the "History of the Stand
ard Oil Company" by Ida M. Tarbell Is
very opportune. Several years ago the
editors of McClure'a Magazine decided to
publish the detailed history of the growth
of a particular trust In order to give their
readers a clear and concise Idea of the
processes through which a particular In
dustry passes from the control of the many
to that of the few. The Standard Oil com
pany was chosen for many reasons. It
was the first In the flrld, and It has fur
nished the methods, the charter and the
tradltiona for Its followers, and Is the most
perfectly developed' trust In existence. As
the history was not written to prove a
preconceived economic theory, but Is a his
tory of the thirty years' Industrial war,
based on trustworthy documents, which are
Interpreted In the light of an Intimate
knowledge of the oil industry and of the
men who figure most prominently In the
organization and conduct of the company,
the reader is allowed to form his own opin
ions from the facts presented. The name
of the author, alone, signifies exhaustive,
conscientious and reliable information.
Everyone Interested in the "trust" subject
will find this work a very valuable acquisi
tion. McClure, Phillips & Co. are the pub
lishers.

PETERSON WINS HIS SUIT
Jadse Sutton Holds He Cannot Be
Compelled to Pay Ju&B
1 ment Twice.
Judge Sutton has made an order setting
aside a Judgment secured by the Conti
nental Trust company as administrator for
Francis Rledersdorf against Soren T. I e
tereon. Rledersdorf had once secured a
Judgment against Peterson for false im
prisonment. ,
After securing the Judgment against Pet
erson Rledersdorf moved to Oklahoma,
where he died. But before his death David
Van Etten had sued Rledersdorf as attor
ney for the amount of the Judgment or
something over, for alleged attorney fees.
An answer soon appeared In the district
court files, signed by Rledersdorf, which
gave the local courts Jurisdiction. Van
Etten recovered a Judgment In his suit,
and Peterson having paid the J1.5C0 Into
court, the lawyer got it.
Now comes the Continental Trust com
pany of Omaha and gets Itself appointed
as administrator of the estate of Rleders
dorf for the purpose of having the case
revived and the Judgment set aside. Judge
Vlnsonhaler having acceded to this request,
suit Is filed by the trust company, for the
heirs of Rledersdorf, and so the case got to
Judge Sutton.
After hearing the evidence in the case
Judge Sutton made an order setting aside
the Judgment secured by the Trust com
pany, on the ground that Peterson having
once paid the money, could not be made
to pay It a second time. The court
also looked with some doubt on the
answer to the suit by Rledersdorf. While
the latter's name was signed to it, tne in
strument was not acknowledged, and It hs
the appearanee of having- hern written
after the signature was put on the paper.
The answer looks, In fjet. as If It had been
signed In blank.
Another question arises here, which Juilae
Sutton did not pass upon directly, hut
which undoubtedly will be raised and
strongly argued when the case reaches the
supreme court, which It Is expected to do
very shortly, as appoal will at once be
taken from the ruling of Judge Sutton set
ting aside the Judgment of Van Etten. This
point Is that trust companies cannot as
sume the office of administrator tinder the
laws of Nebraska. They do act In such
capacity In other states, but attorneys In
terested In this case hold that it Is a
mooted question In Nebraska and one thit
has never been definitely passed upon and
decided by the supreme court.
