an Impossibility, twenty-five or thirty
memhera of the Omnht. eluh atnnd hit.
fore the traps at the Omaha Gun club
yesterday afternoon and pegged at tha
blue rocks as they whirled In the air.
The shooting was more or less incon
sistent aa the trappers would rush out,
shoot five or ten rocks, then break back
for the warmth of a big fire.
But one man turned In a good score.
Alex Chambers broke eighty-nine out of
100 rocks. Ha was almost the only man
who shot that many and his work was
remarkable. He broke the birds at times
when it would seem aa If they were com
pletely hidden In the flying anow. Even
such cracks aa Sam Huntley and Ray
Klngaiey had to take their hats off to
Chamber. ,
Aa a turkey shoot the, day was hardly
a auceess as the big aggregation expected
did not show up, thinking that the enow
would cause the postponement of the
event. But everybody had a good time
and enjoyed themselves Immensely when
their fellow-shooters wasted nhti .hat
ing at rocks and hitting nothing- but
snownaaes. At that about fifteen tur
keys were given.
The shooters were out both in tha nn,..
Ing and afternoon. The attendance In
trie morning was fairly respectable, but
only a few of the more ardent tnnn.
stayed through Into the afternoon.

Bankers Outplay
High School Seconds
The Omaha NaUonal bank Quintet de
feated the Omaha Hujh school second
team Saturday afternoon In a Commer
cial league gam at tha Young Men's
Christian association, U to J. Too game
waa characterised by rough playing on
tha part of each aide. Toward the latter
part of the second half Wlllard and Schu
hart were taken out of the game because
of rough work.
The students wera able to shoot but
two baskets against the close guarding
of tha paying tellers. McFarland and
Logan starred for the undergraduates,
while Bussing and Sen u hart did the bright
worn ror ma bankers. Lineup:
Oble Meyers excellent basket Shooting
enabled the Walter G. Clark to defeat
tho Omaha High school last evening at
the ' Young Men' Chrlrtlan association.
20 to H. In all the heavy forward got
away with elglxt baskets, scoring over
half of the points for hi side.' Tho con
test waa cleanly, played and waa exceed
ingly exciting throughout the forty mln
utefl of Its duration.
The undergraduates started scoring at
the start, making their first point on a
free throw by Flothow. Paynter next
shot a basket, and was followed by Lar

to tha game and though they could not
overtake their opponent" they followed
closely at their heels. The half ended.
12 to, 10 for Coach Mills' protege.
At the close of the second half the
Clarks pulled away from the cadets with
a rapid regularity and wera soon out of
danger.
Though Coach Mills' disciples took the
smaller end of the score, they more than
held their own with the gunmen. In team
work they were greatly superior to their
opponents, while In passing and guard
ing they more than held their own. The
student wera greatly outweighed by the
Clarks. .
Paynter, a member of the second team,
was used in the contest and waa tba one
bright star on the undergraduate quin
tet. He shot four field goal and made
himself conspicuous :n tho other phase
of the game.

fused to state definitely whether or not

however, that tha war chest had been
opened. He also asserted that his family

YANKEE NEGOTIATION'S OFF
Kupptrt Refutes to Pay More Than
$420,000 for Club.
ALSO WANTS CERTAIN MANAGER
Deal Will Probably Be Taken Vp at
Chlcaaro This Week and aa At
tempt Made to Reark an
Agreement.
FRENCH LICK, Ind., Io. JO.-Nego-
tlatlops hero between Ban Johnson, presi
dent of tho American league, and Colonel
Jacob Ruppert and Captain T. I Huston
for the sale of the New York American
league club, were broken off tonight with
out an agreement, but probably will b
taken up In Chicago this last week.
According to announcement. Colonel
Ruppert fixed t20,000 as the highest price
he would pay for the club and that only
after tho services of a certain manager,
whose name was withheld, had been ob
tained ,for the team. Johnson aajd to
night that he not only would not meet
the price offered by Colonel Ruppert. but
he could not guarantee that the man
would be obtained.
flrhrvdnle Completed.
Th achedulo committee completed tha
playing arrangements for 1916 today, but
said' that they would not be made public
until at a meeting to be held In New York
in February.
Johnson left tonight for Chicago. Col
onel Ruppert said he and Captain Huston
would leave for Indianapolis tomorrow
and probably would go to Chicago on
Monday. While none of the principal
said anything about continuing the ne
gotiations for the sale of tha New York
American In Chicago, the fact that
Colonel Ruppert and Captain Huston ex
pected to go there Monday wa known to
Indicate that the deal had not been defi
nitely declared off.
No Reason Given. 1
No reason why Colonel Ruppert should
limit hi prico to 3420,000, when earlier In
tho week he said he would pay aa
high a 3450,000 for the club, could be
learned. Johnson said that the player
demanded by Ruppert could possibly be
Igned, but he wa not sure about the
manager.
Base ball ' men her ' laughed at the
Story that Joe Kelley, form f Baltimore
tar and leader last year of the Toronto
team, would be manager of the New York
American next year.
