A meeting of the sportsmen of Omaha
was recently callud at Athletic park ,
The hour named for the mooting was 4
o'clock in the afternoon , ami at that time
about fifty men hail assembled. They
were all younK men , and the way that
they illdn't ct to work showed that they
were wailing for more arrivals. "They're
like the owls , " finally remarked one of
the yonnp men , "and won't come out
until after sundown. " U ho wait was impatiently -
patiently prolonged until the last rays of
the setting sim cast the leiiHthuninK shall
ow * of the hills over the city of 73.000
population and a ball club with a mi.sfit
mascot. Then the prediction of the im
patient young sportsman was fulfilled
and the ' "owls , " the old-time sportsmen
of Omaha , filed into the park in single
order and seemed prepared for tiny busi
ness that might be on hand. These old-
timers form a distinct class , and their
idonlitv cannot bo smothered by mixing
them up with the helmet-liatted , tourist-
coated , "Knjjliali-yoti-know" sportsman
of the younger generation. Omulm has
ti large number of those venerable re
minders of the. time wtii'ti the location of
the Athletic park was a long way out to
go in search of game , and when the
greatest skill required of : i hunter was
his feat of strength in carrying homo the
result's of an afternoon's shoot. The
Omaha Sportsmen club embraces the
majority of these old-time sports in its
membership. This club was organized
m IfOO , and now has a nie-mberfhip of
about twenty , among whom the most
prominent oltl-timers are U. K. U. Ken
nedy , Dr. 1'eabodv , John \V. 1'etty , Byron
Reed. Judge Lake. H. B. Sacki-tt , Yank
Hathaway . J. Kennedy , Al. Patrick ,
Wm. Preston , J. J. L. U. Jewett , John-D.
Jones , T. L. Kimball , Henry Bushman ,
D. C. .Sutphen , George Mills , Will Krug
ami Fred iilakc. The labttwo gentlemen
nre tlicyoiinpc.it of the members and be
long to the Omaha SnorLiincn's club as a
matter of choice , ns they desire to be
identified with the sportsmen's fraternity
.of the city and still enjoy a life of dream
less inactivity as far as sporting move
ments are concerned. Tliere are a few
active sportsmen in the club , among them
U. E. B. Kennedy , \V. J. Kennedy , Mills ,
Petty. Saekctt , Patrick , Krug and Blake ,
and their activity cornea from an absocia-
tion with members of the other club.for the
fact that the meeting referred to above
was HID lirst that has been called in live
years is proof I'liotmh of the club's inac
tivity. There is reason for this. The fact
is a painful one , but it exists nevo.ithe-
less , that the most of the members of the
club have scon their bi-at days , and are
growing old. The eyes that were wont
to sparkle and draw the bead with un
erring aim , are dimmed with ago ; the
trained muscles and nerves that were
once so prompt to obey the eye's direc
tion are weakened ami unstrung. The
old men can't shoot like they did , but
they'll never admit it. Thev take no part
in shootiiiji at glass balls and clay
pigeons. They call this "boys' plav , "
and mourn for the time when the Ne
braska prairies teemed with game ot
every species ; when elk ' , deer antl ante
lope were as thick a.s'the real estate
agents now are upon the lands imme
diately adjoining the city. The game
fields have been removed west , and the
"owls" concealing their failing powers of
marksmanship tinder the cry of "no
game" meet semi-occasionally and grow
eloquent over resolutions crying for the
protection of game. Four of the vet
active members of this club. Petty , Pat
rick , Preston and Saekett , formed sv team
that won the championship of the Mis
souri valley and stood among the crack
shots ut the international contest in Chicago
cage over twenty years ago.
These old-timers , as they are forced to
rctin ; from the field , may feel satisfaction
in the knowledge that their places are
being worthily tilled. There are two
flourishing gun clubs that embrace in
B. their ntcrnucrship the leading sportsmen
. of the city and some of the bitst shots in
the west. The Omaha ( inn club was or-
gani/.ed in April , l&S ) , and has tlnrtv
Hportsinen on the list of active members.
Among these Frank Parmalce is prouaoly
thcbiiri'bt shut. He holds the ftatc cham
pionship , both on clay pigeons and live
birds , and doesn't seem to be afraid of
losing his honors. H. U. Kennedy and
Ucorgc Kay are tied for second place ,
with Dr.Vorloy , Tom Cotter and J. h. .
Stout as da2)gerotiH contestants This
club takes a hand in every sportsman's
event of state or local interest.
The South Omaha ( inn club was organ
izrd in 1884. and has a mcmoorship of
twenty good shots. They have a quiet
way of getting off into the timber in
South Omaha and doing more shooting
than tiic other clubs combined. At the
state tournament in this city in June ,
John teller , president of this club ,
secured the individual state champion
ship on live birds. F. Harmon and J ,
Harmon arc /oiler's rivals as the best
shots of the club.
Kut nil of the good shots who live in
Omaha are not members of these gun
clubs There is Ocorgn A. Ilongland.for
instance , who is considered the best field
shot in the slate. P S. Knstis and G.V. .
Holdredge , of the B. & M. management ,
are game slaughterers of repute , though
they never appear in local teats of skill
in murk.smnnship. Ocnoral Crook is con
sidered u dead shot , though Im seldom
uses as a pastime the skill he acquired for
business purposes. E ra Millard , J.V. .
Way. J h. Market. John Knowles. Henry
Ilomaii , John S. Collins , B. F. Troxolf ,
E. Young and \V. W. Binghani are. also
crack field shots. The tact that a day of
good game shooting requires a day's
journey to the scene nf tho.shooting anil
the necessary preparations for such a
trip , thus practically shutting out from
the field of sport the average man of
business , whatever his inclinations may
bo. The valleys nf the Platte are the
groatpt gamu regions of the west , nnd
richlv reward the hunter's labors within
their borders , where geese , ducks and
kindred game are found mnra plentiful
than any placeelsein the United States.
The country along the brances of th
Union Pacihc north from Columbus and
( irand Island is tilled with chickens ,
grouso. etc , whHo btill further west a few
elk and antelope may still br found. As
a whole , the state has a good game sup
ply , a faetdulyappreciated by sportsmen.

China's Coming Ceremony ,
London Standard ; Nearly live months
ago wo wcro able to describe the prelim-
inuries of the delicate operation of choos
ing a wife for the young Kmperor of
China , and this morning wo are in po
sition to announce that the board ol
rites has been instructed in conjunction
with the court astrologers to select an
auspicious day in Urn first month of the
next Chinese year for the assumption of
government by the emperor in person ,
As the Chinese year does not commence
until some tlmo between the 21st of Jan
uary and 10th of February , being deci
ded by the first new moon alter tna sun
enters Aquarius , they neud not bo lair-
nod In their deliberations , and as they
liavc 50 recent a precedent for all the de
tails of the ceremonial as the accession
tinder jircci cly similar clrcum tanec.sof
Kwangstt's predecessor in 1873. the im
perial ministers and thr > wl e doctor * of
the Ilntihn should oxpt-ricnco little didi-
cully in executing the bchrstg of their
youthful sovereign. In the first place
the Emperor Kwangsn will order the
board of rites to ntiblL'h an edict
in his name stating that the Knipro.-s
Hi'gent has directed him to "a. sumc
the superintendence of business , " and at
the same time this department will pub
lish a full programme of the ceremony
and date on which it is to be held. This
precaution is the more necessary as the
proceedings arc exceedingly intricate ,
and all taking part in them , not exclud
ing the emperor , have to master their
roles by heart. The Inaugural proclama
tion is delivered before the whole court
and as many of the provincial officials as
can safely be summoned to the capital.
As Kwangstt's father is still living the
usual ceremony of the emperor prostrat
ing himself as his father's alias , will of
course be omitted and the exceptional
position of the young prince ascending
the throne after a long minority will lead
to several other modifications ol the tra
ditional coronation , tint , at any rate
Kuangsu , before "ascending the sum
mit , " its the act of mounting the throne
is termed In China , will pay his respects
to his mother , the Hmpress Ucucnt , and
this will seem far from an
empty form whrn xve recollect how
wisely and through what critical
circumstances the Lmpress Tsi TltsI has
borne her share for twenty years in the
administration.Vhen Kwnngsu has ren
dered this agreeable tribute to his mother
she will take her scat before the court ,
nnd the golden chariot will be made
ready for him. Here , again , superstition
steps in , and not until the astrologer , or
ollicer of the board of astronomy , pro
claims thu auspicious moment to have
arrived may the emneror enter the golden
chariot which is to bear him to the palace
of peace and protection. In that build
ing the most interesting portion of the
ceremony is held , for there the official
world of China is arranged in the strict
est order of precedence for the purpose
of paying homage to the new ruler
That homage is signified by nine pros
trations. These are repeated after the
emperor has taken his scat on the "throne
of gems , " and many other observances
of minor importance are enforced to
show the solemnity of the occasion and
to inspire the mandarins anil people of
China with a feeling ot awe and re'spcct
for "the Son of Heaven. "
Amateur Hallway
Boston Herald : Every newspaper reader
no doubt remembers the gallant , though
unsuccessful , attempt to save Gen. Gor
don from death nt the hands of the Mahdt.
but few know ot the hardships borne and
the obstacles overcome by the British
army in the Soudan. However , I will
not attempt to picture these discomforts
and dilliculties here. I will simply re
late an incident of the expedition.
The advance tip the Nile was made in
eighty whale boats. Each boat was in
command of a Canadian yoyagcur , iind
carried a dozen soldiers , with provisions
for one hundred days. Sailing , rowing ,
towing and carrying or portaging boats
from daylight to dark , interspersed with
picnic meals of canned corn beef and
nurd tack , would be no more than a
novel experience for a week or two , but
believe me , it cets monotonous in less
than eight months.
Some of the portages were short , fifty
yards to a mile ; others long , from a mile
to fifty miles. Over the former the pro
visions were "packed" by men , and over
the latter by camels , the boats bcinc
taken through the cataracts by the Cana
dians' in the meantime.
One portage , from Wady- Haifa to Sar-
ras.'wns so long that the British govern
ment decided to build a railroad between
the two points. Fift.v miles , of truck
ready to uci laid , engines , oars , water-
tanks and stations ; in fact , a complete
railroad was sent out.
The members of the engineer corps had
not enjoyed a very large experience in
railroad'building , and were not furnished
with the necessary appliances for grad
ing , etc. So natives , men. women and
children , mostlv the latter , were hired at
a plaster ( live cents ; a day , to carry sand
in small baskets and dump it on the
grade. When an obstructive rock
loomed up in front , they never thouglitof
blowing it out , but went around it. Such
a thing as cutting through a hill was un
heard of. and the only way any large
hcaus of sand were removeil or leveled
was to bury n plaster in the heap and let
the natives know it was there.
Well , after months ot hard labor , the
track was all laid , but it did not reach ,
Surras , by any means. True , Sarras is
only fifty miles from Wady Haifa , and
fifty miles of track had been laid , but m
sending out the material numerous curves
had not been taken into consideration.
The only alternative was to move the
Sarras station down to the end of the
track. This was done , and the "last
spike" was driven to "Rule Urittanma"
by the band of the Forty-second High
landers.
Everything worked right for a week or
two. But then , for some unaccountable
reason , the track began to shrink. At
lirst the end was about a hundred yards
beyond the Sarras station , but daily the
truck got shorter and shorter till the end
came down in front of the station , nnd
before long the station itself had to be
moved nearer \Vady Haifa.
This continued for some time , and , of
course , the annoyance of having to move
the station every few days was very
gicat. At last , wlion it had been moved
over a mile , with no reason assigned for
the shrinkage , . an investigation was held.
Engineers , brakeuu-n and track
walkers were examined , but
with no result. As a last
resort , a party took the morning
train to Wady Haifa to consult with tno
authorities there and find ont whether
thn track was moving at that point. The
train was composed of n passenger coaoh
of the English compartment style , III :
freight car , a tlat car , with water bunts
and engine No. 1. The engine was a
many years ago , and , a.s it had done or-
vice m Kngland , India , aud ut the c po ,
it was a good deal tho. worse for we r
fact , it was broken down on one side ,
and only pnlTcd odd numbers. It did not
puff 1 , a , 3 , 4. 5 , C. etc. , like our engines ,
but groaned out t It 5 8 , etc. , making
a. fearful noise. Two natives , with a
hand unnip" 'did duty ag injectors , and
were posted on the too of the water tank ,
where they pumped for dear life.
Well , all went on merrily for a few
miles , and no important discoveries
were made in relation to the object of
the trip until n largn cnrve was reached.
The engine did not run very straight.
The engineer was not at the helm , or
else Uic extra exertion on one side caused
the whole machine to forget to go around
thn curve , and the whole train kept on
straight ahead over the desert , till the
tiviul clogged the wheels and brought it
to a stand-still.
The investigation party weriJ naturally
annoyed at this delay , little thinking it
would solve the vexed problem. The
engineer and fireman came back and as
sured them that a derailment was a com
mon occurrence , and that they would
soon be on their way again.
Then came the discovery. The crew
of the train did not attempt to got It
back on tha track agaiu , Theysimply
put the jack screws under each portion
and raised it a few inches from the de
sert. This done , all hands laid hold of
the track and drew it over to and under
the train , let the cars down , picked up
their jack screws , blew the wftistlc , and
otr they steamed. Having ascertained
that tins was a custoruary proceeding ,
and reasoning that the operation in
creased the number of curves , the inves
tigators were not long in deciding tbat
they found the caiiic pf the shrinkage.

AGBIOTJLTUBAL NOTES.
The Importance of Good Breeds of
Stock.
It may be safely claimed that a good
animal requires no more room in the
stable than will one that is inferior , and
therefore a saving of labor is , cflected in
lessening the cost of care and attention ,
it being as easy to manage the superior
animal as it is to give the labor to the
other. Bui thu saving in shelter , room
and labor is not the only item. As only
the most approved machinery is used by
manufacturers in order to cnablo them
to produce goods at the lowest coat and
compete in markets with each oilier , to
should the farmer take advantage of his
opportunities with pure bred stock and
lessen the cost by increasing the amount
of product.
As the manufacturer can adopt the
kind ot machine most suitable , so may
the farmer select the kind of stock for
his special purpose.VhiIc on many
farms no regard is given the breeding or
characteristics of the animals used , jet
the farmer has it in his power to use
cattle that excel in butter , beef or milk ,
mid as some breeds combine several good
finalities , hia advantages arc not. limited.
There is no uecessjty for devoting a stall'
to a. cow that yields only ten quarts of
milk per day when , by judicious breed
ing , the product may be doubled.
\ \ e can point to special cows that have
yielded over forty quarts of milk , per day ,
and cows are numerous that produce
over twenty pounds of butter per wcelc.
Steers liavu been kno > vn to gain three
pounds weight daily , rams liavo sheared
over thirty pounds of wool , and , mutton
shppp have attained -100 pounds1 1 live
weight in two years , while the hog seems
to have an easy time gaining a pound
daily for twelve months.
It is not supposed that every farmer
will be o ? "rttmato as to possess animals
of extraordinary merit , out as long as
such excellence exists tlui farmer should
be oucouruged to strive always for some
thing better. There is no middlertrroiiml
in keeping stock. Tliere must either be
an improvement era retrogression , The
farmer who docs not have souiu object
in view will soonnr or later be. compelled
to dispose of Iih stock us uuiirojitablev as
the. difference between profit and loss is
in tlm animals and their raanagomenU
The cost of improvement is , fortu
nately , but a small sum compared with
thu benolits derived , as nature has endowed
dewed the males with the capacity of be
getting u large progeny , -Ami aS.oxperi-
incuts have demonstrated that the charac
teristics of n breed may be transmitted
through thu male line it becomes but a
matter of a few seasons when an entire
herd or Hock may be changed. If one
will but calculate the additional value
imparted to the stock by only a single
cross it will readily be perceived" that the
service "performed by the male more
than balanced bis cost the first season.
and as ho may be useful far .several
years it is not only costless and economi
cal to improve but very profitable , as
stock that formerly did not repay their
cost may , by a change to grades , add so
largely to milk , licel or butter as to make
it an object to still further improve. The
performances of celebrated animals show
what can bo done , and every farmer
should aim to improve his stock to what
ever point pthera have readied.
Ilreed for What Vim Want
Those who still retain the idea that ani-
mala can bo bred to excel in nil respects
do not succeed. Cattle , horses , sheep ,
anil fowl arc now bred to evcel uncertain
lines. The hog alone b bred for one
specific pur o to make fat and flesh.
In cattle , milkv irljnutinty , nnd nn
aptitude to lay on flesh do not go to-
cether , and never did , oxceiit one at the
expense of the othnr. The raemg-hor o
of to day has itMiJifcr weight nor steadl-
iH' enough for fieavy draft. The Jer
sey i ? not a l > oq } producer , but excel * at
the churn. Tiler ' Jlolstein and Ayrshire
are strictly dairy 'cattle , producing large
quantities of bWh butter and cheese. At
the same tinH1.tltcc cattle do make good
tx-ef , and pleniV rif It. when not in milk.
They como nearer to the general utility
cow for the farmer perhaps than any
other. Yet thjyivill not besought whore
beef is the nrim'lh.il object llerein the
Short-Horns , the llcrelord , and the Tolls
exi'el.
The point Ifcw for the farmer , inas
much a the common stock of the country
must npcossarily IK ? the foundation stock ,
is upon which to breed. Thus , the selec
tion of the bull is all-important. He
should be of such pure blood as comes
nearest to the condition for brooding
what is wanted. Shorthorns and Herefords -
fords cro s kindly on the common stook
of the country for boof. as do the Hoi-
stein anil Ayrshire for milk , and also
beef , where early maturity is not essen
tially desired. Where the making of but
ter is the essential qualification , the
Jersey or ( tuem ey bull will bo held in
esteem where si/.e is not particularly de
sirable. From the produce selections of
females that show peculiar excellence
will in a few years of careful brooding
and care give a herd leaving but little to
be desired.
Feeding Calves.
The average boy of the farm has had
plenty of disagreeable experience in the
feeding of calves. Fed from a pail in
the hands of a boy , the calf is never
properly fod. To feed one calf and atthc
same time keep oil' several others as
hungry and eager as only young animals
can be would be too much for a man to
successfully cope with , except thatho ,
can strike and kick harder than the boy.
Yet how large a proportion of the calves
raised are fed in this way ? Far more
than in any other. It is not difficult ,
howoyer. to make all this work com-
parativofr easy , whether there be only
three , or four , or twenty , or more calve.- .
Have a proper feeding place and erect
a line of stanchions similar to those for
larger cattle , but accommodated to the
size of the calves. It may be nccessaiy
to make the calves enter these to be fed
tor two or three times. They will soon
learn , that only here can they cet their
food. Then , upon the proper call being
given , they will eagerly take their places.
\Vhatevcr the vessels fed from , whether
of metal or wood , pails or troughs , they
must be lixod so they cannot bo pushed
about , and they must be Kept perfectly
clean anil fresh.
When the calves b 'gin to eat grass
they should within the next two weeks bo
taught to oat a few oats dailv. Thoncc-
forwar.lthe milk ration maybe dismissed
as the grassS and gram is increased , but
the decrease on the one hand and the in
crease on the other. mu < t be only as the
paunch of the calf grows. The rennet or
true dijre tive stoiuach of the calf is the
larger of the fouru In the lull grown ani
mal the paunehiik the largest , and this
increase in thuxme case correspond ? to
the relative ilfjprea J in the other as the
animal attaint ago.
Pure/Water for Gown.
Prairie I'armer : Professor Law , of
Cornell university , recently examined the
milk from cows/ which had access to
water from stagnant pools , and found in
every case the milk full of living organ
isms. He : ilaofonmi , , the animals them
selves to be ii/'a" ft-vorish condition owing
to their blood Behfg charged with the liv
ing animalciHie. The Prairie Farmer
has always keftt before its readers the
importance of 'firovidinc pure water for
stock , but especially for the cows : and
tlm te Hmonyiii'fffli1'SO distinguished an

sis to the opinion's * wo have already ex
pressed.
Seasonable Hints and Si
An application of lye will restore to
rough trunks ami branches of orchard
trees their original smoothness *
Tar ought not to be used in marking
sheep. It dries into : i hard lump , which
must be cut off by hand before the wool
is manufactured.
Honey of different grades should be
kept separate. An inferior article put in
with the best set a low price on the whole.
At the close of each season of bloom
grade the whole product.
Deep tillage of heavy lands is one of
the surest safeguards against drought ,
for it constitutes provisions for storing
moisture in the place where it is most
readily available for the support of
plants.
Bees do not work as well in a hive expo -
po cd to the heat of the sun. In midday ,
when very hot , all work on the inside ,
such as comb-building and storing honey
has to bo suspended. Sometimes
combs melt down , and the brood dies in
the heat of the sun.
A good animal should be n heavy
feeder. It has often been considered an
advantage that an animal eat but little ,
but just the , opposite should be desired.
It takes a liberal supply of food and a
good appetite to derive the greatest
amount of product.
Although Hat turnips arc most water ,
there is nutriment enough to make them
an important addition to food for cattle
and sheep , and it is therefore desirable
that in a season of scarcity they be raised
to the full extent of opportunity.
Don't kill your hens that molt now , as
they will make your early layers , and
also bo the most serviceable in winter , as
they will molt , before the cold wcalber
comes on. Hens that do not finish molt-
in pr until late in the season seldom begin
to lay until spring comes on.
A strong-constitutioned sow. which is
a good milker and will drop eight or ten
pigs at a litter , is as profitable stock nn i
farmer can keep. One such will bring
in more money than an ordinary brood
ing mare with colts worth but $ ii ! or f-'iO
when woaned. The pigs will cost less to
keep to bring that money , and there will
bo loss chance for loss by disease or ac
cident. Thrifty farmers will , however ,

THE OLD SOLDIERS GOING ,
Rapid Increase of Betirementj in the Regu
lar Army.
The Great Army of the Itoliolllou
In9 lnc Axvny Iilst of Ketlro-
incuts for lKMr utd
"Ye"said ttonoral Urfcbon , "tho old
soldiers are rapidly passing away. A
company a ilaj * , a recimunt a week , a
brigade1 a month , and an army corps . \
year. They will soon all bo gone ovcopt
a few old butlers who in every war
linger around long after ever body else
is dead.Yo have hardly got done yet
with the e who served under Washington ,
and Napoleon , and no doubt some of
( irant'4 old soldier * will live as long.
But the great army will ? eon be dead ,
and those who linger behind bo so few in
numbers they will hardly bo worth count
ing. "Perhaps , " taul the general , "tho
best way to find out how the volunteers
are going is to take the rogitlni army of
which we have the mo < st complete
records. There wore over two hundred
ofiiccrs of the regular army taken to
servo in volunteers as gcncial ollicers ,
and of these only twenty seven are loft
alive on the active li'-'t. The retirement
list shoves out the older olUcers nnd of
course death soon cleans them up except
the few tough follows referred to before.
Now last year 18ST , we had the followiim
rntiroments in thu tegular army from ago
( .01 years , ) and tin * joar wo double it.

It will bo seen from the aoove list that
the retirements in JSiiti exactly double
those of 1885. So it goes on varying
somewhat with the years , hut always in
creasing until we find all the old "vetcr-
ons have disappeared from the active
rolls of the army. A few of them will
linger a biton the retired list , but "taps"
comes thick and fast now for our veter
ans , and almost before we know it the
last of thorn will be mustered out on
earth.
