Wlas First Contest from tha Lincoln Five. Omaha Voung Men's Christian associa tion, 3: Lincoln Toung Men's Christian as socletion, 22. Omaha high school, IS; Crescents, 15. Two lively games of basket ball were played Saturday night In the form of a double-header In the Toung Men's Chris tian association gymnasium, the curtain raiser being bet ween the Omaha High school team and the Crescents, a second five from the Toung Men's Christian asso ciation and the big game being the first In the state championship aeries and was be tween teams from the Toung Men's Chris tian associations of Omaha and Lincoln and It waa won by Omaha. Considering that they were the first games of the season they were remarkably well played, although a glance at the foul column will show that all the 'players were overeager and made continued fouls which will be avoided to a large extent as the season progresses. Omaha was playing Carl Wilson at center and had moved the veteran Al Hansen to forward, which posrtnm he played with all! the skill and accuracy which characterized his work when he was the best center In the west. Lincoln had splendid team work, but the players had a great fault of try ing to use this Team work when they should have been shooting the ball at the basket. Each side had made two points In less than a minute of play and this put the large' gallery on the qui vlve, for It was early apparent that soma lively times were In snore. Burrusa, formerly of the University of Nebraska team, was a most aggTesslve player, but was more used to playing under tha old rough and ready rules and It tu with difficulty be held himself down to tho new and more stringent ones. Tha opening game waa a lively affair, but tha high school team excelled at team work and thus they won. The big game was the first of the series for the Young Men's Christian association championship of Nebraska, which U being played for tLe pennant, which will be given by the state committee. The towns In the league are Omaha. Lincoln. Beatrice, Crete, York and Octral City. Each team will play two games with esch ether tesm. five games on Its own floor and five away from home. This move on the part of the stste of fices Is to boost amateur athletics In the west, tmiaha has always been a leader along that line, but the other towns of the state have riot ben strong enough heretofore to fall Into line. The east has always been a leader for pure athletics and has cast many aspersions on the west, and to change this the league was formed. The east has suriassed pimply because athletics were better organised than in the west. The Young Men's Christian association took charge of the athletic meet at the state fair with the same IdeA In view. Following Is the lineup of the b'.g game: LINCOLN. 1 OMAHA Mitchell If LF A.

EXILE TO FOLLOW PRISON of Senate, elther . Aconaed 'ar Their Attorneys Itelnai . rrrsent. ST. prrrr.RSBl'RG. Dec 15. Senlenca was pronounced this afternoon upon the social democratic members of lh" lower house whose arrest waa the Indirect cause cf the dissolution of the second Dum. The punishment Inflicted was unexpectedly heavy. Eight deputies. Including Anni kln. Annlsmoff. IxhprllEe and Prince Taarell, are condemned lo five years' labor in the mines and subsequent deportation to Liberia; nine others. Including BxitA shefT. Rielousoff and Klrtenko, aro sent to the mines for four years and then will be deported. Ten deputies are sent Into perpetual exile In Siberia. The leader of the military nrganliatlon, Zapadnike, and two women. Mine, Morosva and Mme. Subbotlna, shared the Iiesvlest sentence, five years In the mines and de portation, while six soldiers who were accused of agltattng among their com rades are given four years In the mines and deportation. Ten deputies' who suc ceeded In proving that they were not con nected with trte socialist organisation were acqulttod. Among the men con demned are three noblemen. Their sen tences must be approved by the emperor. The deputies were accused of forming en organisation, the aims of which wera the overthrow of the existing government and the Institution of a republic. The specifications declared they had Incllod the soldiers to mutiny and the populace to Insurrection. They wer tried by the Judicial section of the senate, the highest tribunal la Russia, the gist of the formal trial chargn being high treason. The counsel for tha defense concentrated his argument to prove that the social democracy la a legitimate political party, openly professing ita tenets throughout the civilised world and expect ing to see them realised through the ballot and not by means of conspiracy. The pro curator, however, successfully maintained the original accusation. A committee of the second Duma composed of leading law yers, which investigated the charges, was given no opportunity to submit its report, aa the Duma abruptly dispersed Its mem bers. This committee vouched, however, that the charges were unsubstantial In character. The present trial proceeded In secret, neither the accused social demo crats nor their attorneys being present, and the public was refused admittance. No reports wera Issued and Ingenious Action was resorted to In order to comply with the requirements of the law that sentenca be pronounced with open doors, the doors were opened, but the police kept every body out of the room, with the exception of the trial board and the prosecutors. Deputies Alexlnshi and Ozcl and a num ber of others, who were Included In tha original Indictment, fled frnm the country, so that they are not among those who have been sentenced.
