CHICAGO'S FREE GOLF.
Thousands of People Play There Each
Season , Without Charge.
Norfolk golllsts will bo Interested
In what Chicago IH doing In the matter -
tor of free golf for Its people.
The JackHon Park 18-hole courno In
Chicago has washrooms and showers
lUliiitl soap and towels , and lockers
which took care last year of the
clubs and belongings of li.Oltli persons.
About one-third were women.

1(591 ( yards Is also provided In the
same park. It covers thirty acres. A
motor mower and hand mowers keep
the grass down. Lockers here , as on
the long course , are assigned free of
charge. At Swopo park are lockers

These lookers cost $0 a year.
But this Is not all. At Gnrfleld park

yards. A golf clubhouse costing $20-
000 was built with nil the conven

The News : It was Pat Slovens In
stead of Pat Kelly who was jailed here
for the Gregory hold-up.
A BRAKEMAN'S RISE.
Leap of Railroad Employe From Pro
saic Job to Poetic Task.
Pittsburg , May 14. National atten
tion is today drawn to the meteoric
career of a former brakeman on the
Pennsylvania lines , by the unqualified
success of a great chain of parks ,
which ho "fathered. "
This spring and summer this man's I
work will be truly appreciated , for he
has converted into beauty spots a
great series of what were once eye
sores to the traveler and the few
minutes stop at stations along the
railway today has become a refresh
ing visit to a beautiful garden.
To day he is superintendent of hun
dreds of parks , constituting the largest
park system in the world , and located
at the stations along the Pennsylvania
lines.
This man Is R. W. Hutchison , and
his leap from a prosaic job as brake
man to the poetic task of making
beauty spots from ex-dumping grounds
had Us origin at the old Jack's Hun
station , Pa.
Promoted to the olllce of agent at
Jack's Hun and having full charge ot
the little tract of land surrounding the
tiny station house , he grasped the op
portunity for beautlilcation. The at
tention of managing officials was at
tracted to his then remarkable
achievement with the result that he
was given full leeway to develop his
Idea at every station , where the lay
of the land made it possible along the
Pennsylvania lines.
Millions of plants are grown each
season under his direction at the pro
pagating houses at Sewlckley , Pa.
Prom his volunteered small begin
nlng at Jack's Run ho has had the
pleasure of seeing his efforts develop
into what is now considered a very
important adjunct to the maintenance
of way department. Every station Is
considered worthy of recognition , and
the railroad is ono long avenue ot
nicoly-kept lawns , ornamental shrub
bery , trees and beautiful floral deco
rations. A corps of employes are con
tinually at work keeping the grass In
condition and nicely cropped , trim
ining shrubbery and arranging decora
live plants and flowers in the numerous
ous beds , which are elaborate In
tent and design. '
Wboro station grounds are extensive
all over Indiana , Ohio , and other states
traversed by the Pennsylvania lines ,
very elaborate designs arc used , all
of which are originated by Mr. Hutch01
IROII , and Include artlstlo beds of Howsi
era surrounded by oriental carpet do-
signs. In many places the names of
stations appear In variegated plants.
One design consists of the stars and
stripes planted In their true colors at
fort Wayne.
The Moral decorations for dining
cars coiuo from the hot houses , being
prepared uz/dor Mr. Hutchison's super
vision. > fo has recently secured new
jardinieres , which are dally filled with
palms , ornamental and blooming
plants and cut Mowers , which are bc-
lug placed In mirrored niches In the
dining cars above the tables.
Details of Interurban.
Hero's the train schedule for the proJected -
Jocted Interurban line between Norfolk -
folk and Newman Grove :
Leave Norfolk at 0 a. in. , 10 a. in. , 2
p. in. , G p. m. ; leave Newman Grove
for Norfolk at 8 a. m. , 12 a. m. , 4 p.
m. , 8 p. m. Tlo up the cars in Norfolk
for the night.
The cars would run at a rate of
twenty miles an hour to make this
two-hour service , according to Civil
Knglneer Schrolnor , and this would lie
what Is termed ( Irst class Interurban
service. I
Best Soil In State ; No Waste.
In his report to the Commercial club
Mr. Schrolnor says that ho found the
proposed route Intersected a territory
of the host soil to bo found In Nebras
ka. He commented particularly upon
the fact that there IH absolutely no J I '
waste land In the entire district to bo
' (
traversed , which Is very unusual. Ho'
says that even In the richest portions
of Iowa , where interurbans have been
built , there Is nearly always some
waste land. Ho was exceedingly
pleased over this favorable feature of
the Madison county project. I '
The grades for the road will average
less than 1 percent , he says.
Might Run to Battle Creek.
The road as projected would be thir
ty-live miles long. Mr. Schrelner's
plan would bo to run west to Battle '
Creek , along the Elkhorn , either on
the north or south side , or , In case
1
Battle Creek was not Interested , to
turn south at the Flannlgan bridge.
Region Thoroughly Cultivated. ,
Ills report comments upon the fact
that the territory affected is extensively - i
ly and thoroughly cultivated , and that
there Is not a farm in the entire sec
tion which does not show , by Its buildIngs -
Ings , that the country Is one of wealth.
Ho advises that the right-of-way
should bo purchased and that public
highways should ho avoided , because
of danger from accidents and result
ant damage suits.
Only ono steel truss bridge , across |
the Elkhorn river , would have to be
built.
The Motive Power.
The report recommends that Instead ' '
of electricity , which is considered too
expensive , McKeen gasoline motors bo
!
used for passenger service and a light
steam locomotive for freight. Little '
rolling stock would be needed for the
freight business , because competition
for the business developed on this line
,
would bo keen among the standard
railroads and they would eagerly fur
nish empty cars for big shipments. ' | !
i
This Is true , ho says , in all such cases. '
'hree gasoline motors he would advise
uylng for the Interurban passenger
rallic.
A Paying Proposition.
Comparing this country with others '
n Iowa and other states , similarly set-
led , the engineer says he Is confident
his would prove a llrst class business J' '
liroposition. | ' i
He does not favor water power from (
.ho Yellow Banks , because there would I
be no other market for the power. | i
The report is now In the hands of t
Secretary Pasowalk of the Commer1 1 ,
clal club and will be considered soon [
by the directors of the club and by the
parties Interested in the line. It may ,
bo said to seem very probable that [ '
mmediato steps will be taken looking
oward the building of this IIIIU. i
Is Mystery In Her Death.
Wayne. Nob. , May 14. Special to
The News : The stomach of Mrs.
lenry Ilografe of Altona , Wayne
county , who died suddenly yesterday ,
presumably from the effects of poison ,
tins been sent away by County Coroner |
William for analysis. A coroner's In-
: iuest was held today.
The woman had been ill Thursday
night and felt badly yesterday morn
ing. While her husband was at the
barn she took medicine , which she said
was salts. Fifteen minutes later she
was dead. It Is believed she took
jolson. A doctor was sent for at WIs-
nor but he arrived too late.
Pllger , Nob. , May 14. Special to
The News : Mrs. Hografe was paralyz I
ed on ono side. She was the mother I1
twin boys , 4 years old.
Nineteen Stitches In His Face.
Jesse Johnson , a colored porter , un
derwent painful treatment at the
hands of a physician late last night
when the doctor found it was neces
sary to take nineteen stitches In his
face and four in his arm to close up
two largo gashes which Johnson had
received at the hands of Gustavo Dun-
lap , another negro , who recently ar
rived from Omaha , and with whom
Johnson engaged In a quarrel in the
east part of the city.
Both men are said to have been
drinking heavily and some old trou
bles which had been brooding for sev
eral years are said to have boon re
newed with the result that Dunlap at
tacked Johnson with a jack knife , cut
ting his face downward from his fore
head over his nose , opening ono of
his nostrils and his lips. Another slash
of tlio knlfo opened a gash In his arm , |
which the physician says if cut a frac
tlon more would have severed an ar
tery that would no doubt have caused
Johnson to bleed to death.
Johnson , however , seemed to not
feel much pain from the cutting , and
I lay In an Intoxicated stupor while the
physician sowed away at his faco. Ho
only was aroused by an occasional In
sertion of the needle and thread.
In Justice Elsoloy'fl court Saturday
both men were charged with disorder
ly I conduct , Johnson being fined { 7.10 ,
which ho partly paid , and Dunlap re
ceived < a line of { 10. which ho will
probably serve out on the street com
missioner's gang , owing to the fact
that he IH financially embarrassed.
This Is not the J. Johnson who Is to
mpet Jeffries.

Fiaht Fans Watch Jack.
San Francisco , May 14. Jack John
son's followers are well pleased with
the showing made by the fighter in
his opening workout.
They saw him stripped , following his
twelve-mile road jog , and many pro
fessed to bo agreeably surprised ever
his condition. All were agreed that
the negro should have little difficulty ;
In removing surplus weight during the
long training Interval before the light
and Johnson's announced Intention of
taking things comparatively easy for
a while Is generally commended.
First Real Workout.
Johnson says that his road exercise
was the llrst real work he has done
In preparation for his meeting with
Jeffries. What ho did at Chicago , ho
declares , was more for the benefit of
photographorH than for himself.
A tentative program has been out
lined for Johnson's preliminary train
ing. For the llrst two weeks ho pro
poses to put on the gloves three days
n week , Wednesdays , Fridays and Sun
days. Later ho will increase this to
four days a week , appearing In the
gymnasium on Tuesdays , Thursdays ,
Saturdays and Sundays. No boxing
will bo done until next Sunday , It Is
said.
Shies Away from Wine.
After posing for pictures yesterday ,
wine was uncorked , but the pugilist
shied away from the bubbling hover-
ago and called for buttermilk.
"Btitlormllk is good for you , " ho
remarked. "It don't put on weight and
It keeps you In good condition. "
MACK SAYS BASEBALL .HAS $
NOT CHANGED. < ? '
' * '
Connie Mack , malinger of the *
Philadelphia Athletics , knows
as much about baseball an any
man living and has a speaking
acquaintance with every player
of note , and ho thinks the game
has not revolutionized In recent
years In any manner except In
point of attendance.
"Tho evolution of the game in
the lust twenty years is moro
remarkable in point of patronage -
age than In tlio way It Is
played , " says Mack.
"There wore marvelous play
ers in the old days , and there
are marvelous players now. It
was a guessing contest bet.wceu
the pitcher and batter In the
days of Hadbourne and Ansou.
It is no less a guessing contest
in these days of Mullln and La-
Jole. It was a battle between
the catcher and base ritoner In
the days of Ewlng and of Hum-
llton. It Is still a battle In the
days of Sullivan and Ty Cobb.
The fan who believes there are
no Clarksons or Kellys or Sto-
veys or Fergusons or Fogartys
today Is Just as ( Irmly set in ills
belief an is the fan who con-
aiders LnjXrJe , Mathewson , Joss ,
Klini ; , Cobb and Crawford
greater players than were In
the game back In the eighties. " '

CORBETT GOING WEST.
Will Leave New York for California ,
to Take Charge of Jeffries.
New York , May 14. Jim Corbett t , I
unless he changes his plan , will leave |
New York the first of next week for ;
Jeffries' training camp , where he will
assume charge of the task of preparing - '
ing the big fellow for the Johnson
light.
Corbett is in pretty fair condition
himself and says that after ho has
been at Jeffries' camp for ton days or |
two weeks , ho will be able to make
things hum in the ring.
If Corbett Is allowed to have undis
puted authority at the camp , it is be
lieved ho will make several Important
suggestions , among them being the
engagement of ono or two rugged
heavyweights "who can mix it up
with Jeffries in earnest. "
Corbett's friends say he favors the
engagement of a man like Kaufman ,
Barry , Plynn or Ross , who can hit
hard and is also big and strong
enough to receive heavy blows with -
out flinching.
That kind of work In Corbott's opln -
Ion , would do Jeffries moro good than
light sparring , but it remains to bo
scon whether Jeffries accepts this advice -
vice with favor or not.
Joe Cans Has Tuberculosis.
Baltimore , May 14. Joe Dana , the
"old master , " the most popular colored
fighter that over donned a mitt , Is out'
for good out of the ring counted out
by the dreaded white plague.
The former champion of the light
weight division has been Informed
that tuberculosis has taken hold of
him and was ordered to leave at once
for the west.
Guns plans to start at once and
will take up residence at some out-
of-the-way resort In Arizona , with the
hope of eventually gaining the upper
hand .ovor the disease.
When told that a permanent stay In
the dry western country was the
only hope to win out , the greatest
colored lighter of them all did not
appear at all depressed. In fact , ho
expected nothing less , for the symp
! toms t < have begun to show , and It Is
expected that the disease has reach
ed an advanced stage , due to the
former < lighter's desire to keep It quiet
with the hope of lighting It off.
Today's developments put to rest
the clamor of a fight with Wolgast for
the lightweight crown , for .Gaus Is
through as a boxer , and It Is doubt
ful if lie will ever take part In any ac
tive sport.
When In his prime Gans was a won
der and ono of the few men who stood
up before Battling Nelson and made
the Terrible Dane fool the punishment
being indicted. After his last light
with Nelson , In which ho was beaten ,
Gans never showed the same form ,
and It is said that the beating -broke
his lighting spirit for all time.
TWO FAITHFUL PITCHERS.
Pittsburg Has Valuable Pair In Phil-
lippe and Leever.
Sam Leever and "Deacon" Phllllppe
have won 350 out of 522 games for
the Plttsburgs during their careers
with that club. During tlio time they
have been with Fred Clarke their work
has been faithfully performed. Only
recently they demonstrated their loyal
ty to Captain Fred. At St. Louis the
Pirates were forced to play the Cardi
nals while rain and snow fell in In
clement combinations.
Clarke didn't want to take a chance
on ruining either Adams or Camnltz
for life , so he asked for volunteers to
pitch the game. Leever and Phllllppe
were the ones to answer the call.
Leever was chosen , and ha went In and
won.

Three In a Street Fight.
Constable John Flynn arrested W.
Williams , his son Clifford Williams ,
and Joe Gridith on charges of disturb
ing the peace Friday afternoon. Some
dllllculty over a sewer ditch resulted
in a battle royal In which Grldlth came
out the victor. All three men are In
the employ of E. S. South and were
having a heated discussion In a rear
room of the plumbing shop when W.
Williams and his son turned loose on

prevenled by the timely arrival of W.
II. Klngsley , proprietor o'f the Pacific
hotel , who gave Mr. Griffith assistance.
Later Mr. Kingsley summoned Con
stable Plynn , who placed all three of
the combatants under arrest and took
them before Justice Eiseley.
When the case came up before Jus
tlce Eiseley , Joe Gridlth was relalned

ford Williams , was fined $10.
