Despite the law whloh miys that no

who were in Norfolk all day yesterday ,
were carrying pretty good "packages"
when they boarded the Slonx City train

point that they refused to apeak upon.
It is not at all unlikely that the contents

ilia gave thorn ouongh of their longed-
for ( Ire water to send them into the
dreamland of their happy hunting
ground. When they nro unable to get

there him never boon n race of people

FROM HAIL STRICKEN TILDEN ,
Later Reports Show Even More Dam-

[ From Monday's Dally. ]
Reports from Tlldeu papers show
that last week's hall storm , whoso
first report appeared In The News ,
was fully as destructive as , or oven
worse than at firstsupposed. Much
of the territory contains desolated
and completely ruined Holds. Or
chards wore stripped. As far as can
ho scon , says the Citizen , crops are
entirely obliterated and fields have
the appearance of newly plowed

[ From Saturday's Dally. ]
While the lecture-recital of Charles
E .Watt , of the Chicago Piano college ,
at the Congregational church last
night was highly successful so far as

small attendance. As n pianist , Mr.
Watts was quite superior and the few
who did hear him wore very well
pleased. Of the many music lovers
In the city , however , but a comparat
ive handful of auditors listened to the

air down town at the merry-go-round
and at different places , which all
seemed to bo pretty popular , but the

During yesterday afternoon Mr.
Watts listened to a recital given by
music students of Mrs. George N.

Track Recovers Surprisingly
From Morning Rain.
SEVERALNEW , TEAMS ENTER.
Some Pretty Runs Were Made .by
the Contesting Teams Change In
Running Arrangements , Teams Go
ing It Individually.
[ From Wcdnesdtiy'B Dally. ]
Though the track was still a bit
soft from this morning's rnln , It was
nevertheless In surprisingly good
shape for the start at 2 o'clock. A
larger crowd than that of yesterday ,
enough to comfortably seat the
grand stand , had assembled before
the trap was sprung for the Initial
run.
run.The
The air Is much more comfortable
today for the racers than during the
first afternoon , and the athletes be
fore the program started thought
that they would make some good
marks. The outcome has not been
moved , according to yesterday's
plans.
Plorco Is a newcomer In the as
sociation today. A team has just
arrived for entrance In hook and lad
der races , class "B. " Albion also
has a now team In this field.
A change has boon made In the
running arrangement today. In
order to give more precise tlmlngand
to give each team the same chance ,
they are running Individually , against
tlmo. This makes only three timers
necessary. In order to avoid all
possible partiality , separate timers
will have charge of class "A" and
class "B. " They are : Class "A"
C. A. Illlsobeck , of Holdrego ; W. B.
Vail , Norfolk ; George Thomas , Ne
braska City.
The judges are the same as yes
terday , Shlck and Smith. Starters
are the same , Hull and Applehy.
At promptly 2 o'clock Harrison's
band began the program of today's
events with an Introductory number.
The first race was the regulation
hose race , class "A , " for 250 yards.
The teams running , and their order ,
wore : York , Fremont , Stanton ,
Seward and Kearney.
York made the run In good shape ,
hut failed In coupling and lost out.
Their time , ns caught from the out-
side , was about 3it i-5. ! This Is the
first time their coupler has over
failed. Ho has been at all tourneys ,
and Is considered sure. The hose
was not laid just right for him.
Fremont made a beautiful run and
a very pretty copnllng lu ill 1-5.
The Seward team Is ono of the
lightest on the grounds , but are pos
sessed with the proper spirit to win
and are hard workers , Individually
nnd collectively. They arc getting
their full share of the prize money
through their energetic work.
A great many Norfolk people wore
In the grand stand this afternoon.
There was considerable betting
over today's events. After York lost
the regulation , her backers wore
Hashing much currency In the track
and grand stand.
Kearney made a good enough run
but were slow In coupling , making
the tlmo for their race IS ! fiat.
Stanton made a run In about 35
but got no time because Al Marks ,
of whom much was expected , failed
to put the coupling for three threads.
Seward made a beautiful run and
tied the tlmo of Fremont , 34 1-5. The
coupling was very pretty.
This gives a tie on first money , and
the money will be divided between
Seward and Fremont.
Timer Ullsebeck had a coat and
pair of shoos stolen yesterday at the
grounds.
The Championship Tomorrow.
As to the championship race to
morrow , which promises to be the
big feature of the three days , nnd
for which many outsiders nro ex
pected on the noon trains , there Is
still much difference of opinion. York
on her very speedy team , which won
nearly everything yesterday 'and
from whom great things are ex
pected because of her record so far ,
Is wiling to place her all. Fremont
Is equally ready to back her team
and Stanton thinks that they have
a good show of taking the belt. Al
Marks Is usually very fast , and the
team certainly can run. Seward has
a swift aggregation , too , and the
Kearney boys think that if they can
get Into shape , they will show some
worth while speed.
"Unless wo fall on tlTo coupling , "
said a York man , "wo have the
race clinched. " The team did not
run last year.
"Wo have the belt clinched by all
odds , " said a Fremont supporter.
The prospects are excellent that
tomorrow will bo the largest nnd
best day of them all. With the cham
pionship races , and the street events ,
to conclude with the pageant of the
Royal Tiger club In the evening , it
is fully .expected that the crowds will
bo as much greater over those of to
day , as today has been over yester
day.
Late Events Yesterday.
The closing of the afternoon yes
terday brought the best features of
the day. The state record for the
coupling run was broken by 1-5 of a
second In the run of the York team ,
tlmo 33 3-5. The turn was simply
superb mid those who saw the state
record smashed cheered lustily.
This race gave a prize of ? 50 to the
winner. Fremont was second In
34 3-5 and Seward third In 34 4-5.
Stanton made a good run but was
slow In the coupling.
In the first heat of the firemen's
handicap foot race for 150 "yards ,
Haincr of York won , time 15 ; Bob
ble Burg took second , tlmo 1C 2-6
and .1 , E , Benlsh. or Norfolk , took
third , tlmo 10.
In the chief's race , Al Marks of
Stiinton ran the 100 yards the best ,
In 102-fi. There was but ono prize ,
a lantern valued at $25.

Second Day Ushered in Amid
Gloomy Clouds.
HOW THEY PASS THE MORNING.
Hotel Corridors Were Thronged With
the Firemen 1Raln Sent the Mid
way Display Curtains Under Cover
People Slept In the Street.
[ From Wednesday's Dally. ]
The second day of the tournament
of Nebraska's fire fighters was ush
ered In amid dark , discouraging
clouds In the heavens , which con
tained any amount of rain water and
dropped a goodly portion of it upon
the city. For three hours this morn
ing the moisture beat down upon the
tourney and kept the laddies indoors ,
with no chance for carrying out the
forenoon program. At 9 the storm
began to break and fair weather re
turned.
In the hotels , where hundreds of
the runners lounged about during the
rain , the racing was the principal
topic of gossip among the visitors.
The dampness hardly affected their
spirits. The firemen are good fel
lows , and "It's always fair weather
when good fellows are together. "
The midwayshows had to haul down
their gorgeous curtains to keep the
beautiful ladles from getting faded
and discolored ; the lemonade man had
to lock up the joint and get within ;
the merry-go-rounds were still and
gloomy and at the shooting galleries
there was nothing doing. ,
Many of the firemen got out upon
the streets as soon as the skies
cleared a bit , and they entertained
themselves. Some of them bought
tiny umbrellas of red and white , oth
ers joshed the "beautiful ladles" and
the rest of them killed time generally.
On account of the rain , there will
be In all probability a portion of the
program to be carried out after to
morrow. The afternoon races can bo
managed all right , but those that
ought to have come during the fore
noon will likely go over.
The outcome of the track nas been
moved until it Is squarely In front of
the judges' stand. There will not
be the delay hereafter that was ex
perienced yesterday. Fines will be
imposed after this. The receipts
yesterday were $225.
As a sign of the number of people
who are in Norfolk , the lack of beds
may bo noted. Every hotel Is
chucked full and overflowing , hun
dreds of extra cots were taken and
some even slept out upon the streets ,
rolled In blankets.
A large number of persons arrived
this morning for today's events , sev
eral hundred coming from the west.
Tomorrow's crowd will bo the big
gest yet , on account of the champion
ship race. York seems to have a
good chance at the winning , although
Fremont claims to bo able to carry
away the prize. Other teams , too ,
from Kearney , Grand Island and
Seward think they can put up a
good proposition.
