Tho following account of what an Omaha sport found in Lincoln is re printed from tho Omaha Boo: . "Ever been down in Lincoln?" asked a traveling man at tho Rome hotel. The speaker was a red-faced man In a brown suit with a checkered shirt. A diamond glistened from the riiiddle of his red tie. Ho had been reading the sporting supplement of the Sunday newspaper which he held in his hands as he asked tho question of a friend. The friend replied "he had nevorhad the pleasure of visiting Lincoln. "Sporty town all right," said the red-faced man with .tho reminiscent, smile. "I dropped in ,thero one day last week; walked up (ho main street, saw banner strung across between buildings. - Thought it must be ad of mehlg. snorting-. eyent, Gqt up to it what do you tnink it was' "Piilkham's porous plasters ad?" ventured the listener. "No, a debate;" Bald the red-faced man with infinite scorn. "A debate?" ejaculated the other. The red-faced man nodded his head sadly and continued: "I was disappointed. Went to bar ber shop. No Police Gazette, no sport ing sups. Just big poster advertising debate. Got in chair. Barber lath ered rhy face. 'Down to hear tho de bate?' he asked. I told him no. He said the teams Were well matched. Another- barber and the porter were discussing merits of- the teams. Darkey bet other barber $5 to $3 Ne braska would win. "I stopped' at shining parlor for a shine. Poater advertising debate Btuck in one end of the place. Pic tures of the teams. One of Greeks says: 'Closa da shop tonight. Goa dp debate.' I (led. "Thought I'd walk along the street. Did so. In every window posters about the debate. On the street cars more posters. Cards tacked on tele phone posts Sidewalks painted. Everything debate. Debate wherever you looked. Debate wherever- you stepped. I could smell debate, taste debate, feel debate. N "Dropped into a saloon. No debate here, I thought. Met a man I Used to know on the road. Used to bo a good sport and baseball crank. Hailed him like a long ,lost friend, almost embraced- him, and called him my pre server. Saw a pleasant evening be fore me talking about batting aver ages, fielding averages, great stars! an evening full of reminiscences of games past and visions of the coming season. Asked him up for preliminary drink. He looked at me. 'Fine to see you again, my dear sir,' he says. 'Going to the debate tonight?' "I wilted then. I never thought he'd do it. He was changed. 6h, so sad ly changed. He had become as batty about that cursed debate as he ever was about baseball, and then some. "Went alone to my room and tried to sleep. Evep then the dear college boys woke me 'up giving the yell of the debating team. I took an early train .out . of .. town."
