Moot the U. P.'a , ona nro

Thcro wore only about 500 specta
tors present on Saturday afternoon to
witness the gatno of ball , for it was
generally understood that the Glen-
woods wore no match lor our boys ,
and the game would bo all one-sided
in consequence.
This proved to bo the reault , as the
Glonwoods only succeeded in getting
in ono scorein the first inninga on n
bad throw by Mahoney , who played
third base , to Bundle- . With this ex-
contion , the U. P. nine played an
almost faultier game. The U. P.
nine are improving with each game ,
as will bo aeon when it is known
that they had but ono error
in the game with the Council Bluffs.
The nine has been very much
( strengthened by the addition of Dwyro ,
wlio will play hrst base and change ,

SPANKING SPAN.
Arrival of Two Beautiful nnd Lively
Roadsters In Town.
Omaha has always stood at the top
of the ladder of fame in the mattlor
of possessing superior horso-ilesh.
This fact has been acknowledged by
all visitors who have enjoyed an ovo-
ing's trip out Sherman avenue , and
iiiauv-j nastorn sporting papers have
doomed the .
suuj ,
WQrthy of noH
nnd have given the namiu , r , : . . . . „ „ „
records and owners of a number oT
the blooded horses possessed by private -
vato parties here ,
Lately Charles S. Higgins has
added to the meritorious list by the
introduction of ono of the finest teams
of roadsters that ever raised the dust
in Omaha or vicinity. They are bays
and could not bo moro perfectly mated
in color , gait , carriage , size and style.
Uoth are blooded stoppers and rejoice
in the names of "Kitty II. " and
"Hilly S. " Since Col. lliggms has
appeared on the road with bis nobby
team , his outfit has boon admired by
all horsemen , and of course anvied by
ninny. Ono of Snydor's fanous light
running and feather woiglt buggies
was made expressly for this team , nnd
its owner when seated baiind them
looks as happy as Homier , even if his
hair is not the same color. "Kitty II. "
and "Billy S. " are all nervf and speed ,
and there nro but few twins in this
part able to glvo thorn tl dust. They
inako the length of Sherman avenue
appear aa short as a block , and if you
aeo any young men who have suddenly -
ly lost their hair , you can bet a pea
againat a pagoda that they have been
riding againat the wind with Higgins
after those bays.
A SAVAGE 'SURPRISE ,
A Silver Souvenir for a Just
Judge.
Interesting Episode in the Dlstrlo
Co art Room *
Ono of the pleasantoat features o
the term of the district court jus
ended was the little surprises party
given its presiding officer , Judge Savage -
ago , on Saturday afternoon. It has
been generally known for some time
past that this was his last term as dis
trict Judge , his falling health com
pelling a reluctant retirement from a
place which ho has filled in such a
manner as to win the respect and
esteem of the bar and the public gcn <
orally. In view of his anticipated
move , his friends combined together
to present him with an appropriate
souvenir , which was found at Max
Moyor&Bro.'s in the shape of a
magnificent solid silver water pitcher
and goblet , ol antique 'Ionian design
and inscribed as follows : "Hon. Jas.
W. Savage. Upon his retiring from
the bench. By the bar and the offi
cers of his court. " The goblet is in
scribed "J. W. S. " Both pieces are
encased iu velvet cases. This mugni
ficent service was carried into court
by the bailiffs about 3 o'clock in the
afternoon during the argument in
sotnu civil case , which was temporarily
suspended upon the request of Col. E.
F. Smytho , who was tno prime mover
in the matter , that Judge Wakeloy bo
heard upon by the court upon an im
portant matter which ho desired to
present. Judge Wakoloy said :
My brethren of the bar here , without
warning , and without amoment _ for pre
paration , charged me with n duty which
they think should take precedence of the
business of suitors here.
Some yearn ago. air , it foil to my lot in n
little contention held within these walls ,
to present your name ns n candidate for
tha oflico of jud > .efor thi district. I took
occasion then t > depict , in my imperfect
way , some of the chief qualifications which
should ba posseted by n good and just
judge. And I then promised , that if the
nomination of that convention should oo
ratified by thn people , they should see no
caussj to regret their choice. They did
ralify it , and , four years later , they reaf
firmed their choice , nnd continued you in
your judgment seat by nn unprecedented
majority of their votes.
And now , sir , ns you mo about , no long
time hence , to relinquish the high trust
with which > on were invested , I take oc
casion lo say that you do so after years of
service perf01 uie'l with the universal con
fidence and approval of the people , not of
this judicial district only , hut of the whole
state an approval not qualified by dit
Unction of party , of creed or condition. I
speak the general voice when I ony , that ,
during your incumbency , this Beat baa been
'I < 1 with uncommon ability , courtesy and
nrmnessj wii , in integrity ami purity
never even qucstio > , u. ;
I know that when you shall jay nsie |
your high and rolemn judicial < itiuc -
whether you chall be in public or private
life , you will have the people'x confidence ,
their respect and their wishes for yourauc-
cess nnd good fortune.
As n slight token of llio regard of lliis
1i bar 1 , I now present ro yu and auk you lo
accept i their gift of this silver pitcher nnd
cup. "
Judge Savage was deeply moved by the
unexpected wift and the expressions which
accompanied it , but ho responded ns fol
lows ;
Judijc Wakeley and brcthim of the tor :
"It is with inexpressible pain that I ap
preach the close of my duties n plan
which your kinda words mul this exquisite
gift can hardly alleviate.
I remember well your words seven years
ngo , nntl the reception given mo and the
letting judge , and the kind words spoken ,
and remember the promise I made to the
bar thai howe\er inellicieut I might prove ,
irul how far short I might fall of the ideal
vould eInae ? < VW thai iu all cases 1 tl :
I may say , without V8 ? * a"d fair. J
tion , that I have bad no coiis'cimiaM.y'ta- '
being unfair. I hoped at that time that' "
whllo I could not promise lo make a wise
and learned judge , I thould fall into it
or , as the saying is , "make aomelhlng oul
of a second rate lawyer. " I admit that I
have not fu filled that hope , but I've tried
to. The position has been BO pleasant ,
nnd I've been so aided by the kindnesa of
the bar , that I lea\e it with regret. If I
could consistently- what I believe to
be my duty to myself nnd to you gentle
men of the bar , I should like to hold T.
through my tern , nnd aa long ns my con-
stituenls pleased ; bul Ihe state of my
health which is the sole reason compels
me to resign.
This testimonial should coir.e from mate B
to you , not from you to me. It will re
mind me of ono of the happiest periods of
my life , When 1 look back I tee the t
errors and mistakes and overnights 1 have
committed and which you have been kind
enough to overlook , I hope for your asuv-
ciatlon in Ihe future. One of the most un [
pleasant experiences in the life of n judge c
Is that the intimacleH gradually drop off ,
the reason being , no doubt , that a great
part of the life of a lawyer is taken up
with convcr'ations about cases , which
would be improper for the JUJRO to listen
to or for the counsel to have with him.
I can only add , gentlemen , once more
my Mucere thanks for this cordial oxpres-
Mon of your good wishes and esteem , and
look forward to my future life among you
with a pleasure which goes far toward
mitigating the retjrets I feel ot rcaicninir
my position. "
The resignation of the judge will
not bo made until the 00th of Sept.
and hia successor will bo appointed
by the governor in time to hold the
regular October term of court , which
will bo the only ono , as the oflico will
bo filled at the November election. It
is probable that there will bo a meet
ing previous to the appointment , in
which the counties composing the dis
trict , will all bo represented at which
a choice will bo named and recom
mended to the governor for appoint
ment.

A Misrepresentation-
The following appeared in Fri
day morning's ' Republican :
"A couple of pen peddlers are in
town , and being slick talkers , they
made at least ono sale among our busi
ness men that the purchaser had
reason afterward to regret. They sold
pens for two dollars and fifty cents per
gross , and the identical article can bo
purchased in The Republican station
ery department for fifty cents per
gross , just one-fifth of the price asked
by the traveling pen peddlers. There
is a little moral attached to this item
which each business man will quietly
reason out to himself , after which the
itinerant pen peddlers' occupation will
bo gone , so far as Omaha is concerned. "
'J'hu nbovo picco of spite work on
the part of thn stauoner at The Re
publican oflico refers to AVobstor's
Amalgin steel pens , the solo agency
of which for Omaha , Fremont and
Council Blull's , Gilman R. Davis &
Co. , opposite the postoflico have re
ceived. Theao goods were not sold at
§ 2 00 by the "peddlers" but § 2.00 and
not kept at The Republican ofiico for
" 50 cents" or any other jirice.
Theao superior goods are ueod by
the postoilico , banks and railroad
headquarters of this city , and inquiry
at any ono of the above places will
satisfy anyone of their suporiorquality.
