"BLEEDING KANSAS" WINS , the Topekaa Knock Out tlio Homo Team' in a Great Game Yesterday , A DISASTROUS EIGHTH INNING Emporln Jnkcs at. Joo's Place In the "Western Lcnijuo Donror "Downs Wichita lladly Other Bportlng Matter * . Sunday' * ) On inn. Healy's arm went off the hinges In the felghth Innlnir , and homo talent lost u game kvluch scorned already safe in hand. For nil that , however , It was a great game , fr'ho day Was line , and to say It. serene , save Vvlicn an occasional stalwart breerofrom some- ivhcroln the clomlless sky stirred swirls ot dust In the field and drifted high flloj from their prescribed courses. The attendance died thn grand stand and bleaching boards and strung In a dense hedgerow along the o , fences. Although there was little betting Iplrit , the crowd came prepared for a good prime , and thu Interest was pitched to a high Si Strain. SiT" Owing to the fact that tLo visitors do T" their slugging mostly lett handed t Olader was ihllted to the pos > t 0 pf honor In thu right Held and Krclinieyor Ws given a vacation In left This little act 0I ) of foresight looks ban throinth the hindsight I Ince it proved to bo one of the strongeit ele ments of disaster In the play. Handli- , who Was to substitute Fussulbacli , hurt him sell In .practice just before the game , and thy regu lar third baseman , although half sick , went to his station. V llcaly and Jantzon tilled the Dolnts for oi pmaha , while thu visitors presented Doums land Kenyon. 1'attlotfc pride centers In the first two In- folngB , when nil Iho homo work was done. Umpire Hock well gave the word at 4 o'clock fcharp and the visitors spread out over the In ) llold to stop Walsh's expected home run. The little man from short surprised his friends by fttriklnit out. Ardner's fumble of a Wiort grounder and blind miss of n . - thrown ball , the next Instant , gave ( Bill felessltt second and npassed hall immediately { tie following put the second baseman on third Iwi amid some applause. Fussulbacli reached I of , lirst on a phantom hit and sneaked second I bit ( when another passed ball helped him to third as Moss III ran In. Dwycr popped a ItBI afoono over first , brlnzlng in Fusselbach , hsl hnd immediately thereafter taking second on Ian a wild pitch and perishing there while loot oy ing with too long a lead. Badcr at once took fa ) jDwyer's place on a short fly and a steal , and P.r galloped liome on Krchineyer's two bagger , ( Hit uonlns then bunted out from pitcher to lirst , after Jjxntzcn was uiven his first by the um- fthm hlre. The crowd seemed satisfied with the | m Ihreo runs as a starter and forgave the fault lin . TheTopekas also improved the business thwi opportunity of the lirst Inning , llolllday wi Koi a start on balls after Stearns had fallen | nc bn Mcssitt's clever holding. Johnson JIB then drove the ball Into deep ccn- JIBt ( tm and took third while Holll- day .scored. Macullar's single to center ap tallied Johnson and the visitors' captain made a bold aud successful dash for homo on Wordcn'g long hit to loft. Snecd popped kip to Walsh and Ardner tlcw out to left , LEI ( closing the inning with n tic. Meanwhile LEIa Ilolliday had been doing some coaching , a I'hls worthy young mouth organ has evi fth dently been taking lessons In lunacy from Ittio crazy captain of the Browns. Ho took a itand as near hr.st base as the white-wash line would lot him and proceeded to such re marks ns : "Play off , Mac , steady there , who up ! yah , yah , that's light and no. look sut ! who up f steady there , now , who up. " The crowd lauirhed at hrst and then gave It back to him with , "Gee-haw , Buck ! Get along Jinny ! " llolllday went an , nevertheless , undismayed , nnd was a mark for guying the rest of the game. rwW Omaha's glory Hashed its proudest In the W lecond , and what was believed to be a safe Dl ead was put on the score card , llealy with SD ilg old Btnlle tlew out to second , but as til Walsh substituted him at the plate the vlslt- tilbi < , ng fielders backed elf to pull down a home bi mi. A single was all that came of it ; trot Uesslttcame to time with a hit Jor two i m. rusnlon.s , on which Walsh scored and re 0) ) solved an ovation. Another loud whoop I'MD went up as Mcssltt ran In on Fus- | D lulhoch's hot single. But when I'Mfc Mickey Dwyer .lifted the sphere over the fc 1'weniieih street fence for a homo run , the fco ( entry In the grand stand and the unmti//led - ob loodluins on the housetops In tlio nelghbor- oa jood sent up a yell that lightened all tlio a ionics In the track stables a mile away. It mdfd , however , with these lour runs , as ilmlorand Krehmeyer went out in succession n 'rom short to lirst The Kansas "Had legs" who , by the way , r are white legs full on the perch in one two three order during the second and third , J'onr boys" doing the same In the latter Inning. Thn fourth was productive of ono nm for Iho visitors. Captain Macullar took a no- lion , probably at llolllday'.s wild suggestion , that a "cold" ball hail IMJUH run In on him for h hoo-doo and while the slim and swarthy Kenyon was nt b.it. hu stopped the gamu to phango balls. It was thu pitcher with the pmlnnus name ot Dooms who made tbo run ton "Mouthy" llollldny'B lone hit to center. Walsh's wild throw to liist , and Uentns' tautf of Snced's lone fly lot Werden ncor In She fifth , while iiothlne was done for homo. In the sixth , Omaha earned a run of which he was robhed by the umpire , llealy made § beautiful slide under Kenyon's hand on SMnssltt'fl bunt along thu runs but wan ruled out. Meanwhile Messltt , who took up a mad career , was caught within twelve feet of second end and was declared safe. The umpire tailed to see the plays anil rendered a com promise imunicnt like the jury's verdict In Die boodle trial. The crowd groaned dls- Nelther side disturbed the score until the glghth. Up to this Inning the tally stood T to 5 In favor of home , sweet home , and the fame was a sure tiling against the visitors. It was hero that Healy's arm failed ; It was pern that the "Jayhawkora" got Into their patting clothes : It was here tlmt "our cake ras doughed. " Dooms opened with a high fly halt way between middle and right Genius and finder tore away for it and met jiut nicely under the descending ( where , but | o nicely that they hail to occupy themselves "breaking away" from oar-h other as the tlv dropped. The ball rolled gently about their feet while tbo colliding Hold ers worn busy swearing at each pther , Dooms was racing away tor third. When this gentleman with Via judgment day name came homo , followed a moment later by Stearns to tie the score , an enthusiastic cheer went up but as llolllday drove a trlpplo Into lot t the cheer had the varnished side ot Its enthusiasm rubbed off nnd was heard no more. Thu re mainder nt this fateful InniiiKis abrluf story of terrible bluggini : In which Johnson , Jlnculbir , Snecd and Kenyon took leading parts.

Pierce , nn old resi dent of the Hawaiian Islands , who is vis- ting in this city , says the Now Bedford Mercury , expresses unbounded ule.isuro at tliu result of the revolution which has loposed the old and corrupt ministry and ilticud in power men animated by n pat * riotic desire to servo the country. Ho Iocs not express n Very high opinion of Kalakntia , but says ho will do ns well as myono for a figurehead. In the captain's anguago.tho king will huuccfortli "romn , ml not rule. " "All the trouble , " said captain Pierce , 'has come from that scamp Gibson , the > rmio minister under the old regime. " Gibson IB n nutive of South Carolina. le has had a checkered career In many amis , among his earlier experiences bo ng a two years' imprisonment by the ) iitch for selling arms or melting rubul- lon In Java. When freed from prison 10 returned to the United States and in duced the government to make a demand on the Dutch for damages. Hut after nn nvcstigation of the case it was dropped. L'hcn he drifted to the Hawaiian Island is an agent of the Mormons , when it was hought they might be forced to luavo Jtah. Ho was intrusted with funds to Jiiy lands for them , and did make a pur chase on the island of Sana ! , but had the Ice'ls ' made out in his own name , and vhen the saints wanted their property in had forgotten all about them. Ho still ick'.s ' the lands. Later he established a newspaper in the Hawaiian language , irofcssing the warmest love for Tils 'browu-sklnnod brethren , " and won his ray into their regard so effectually that vhen ho became u candidate for the leg- slaturc ho ran fur ahead of his ticket. Ic raised a cry of "Hawaii for the lawalian ? , " and making himself solid vitli the king , was Hnally elevated by lim to the head of the ministry. AN AMBITIOUS SCHEME. One of his schemes was to make Kala- caua emperor of the Pacific ocean. Ho > ersuadcd Kalakaua that it would bo a great thing to annex : all the islands vithln reach , or , as ho put it , "place horn under the tutelage" of Hawaii. Kalakaua was pleased with the notion , md a "navy" was titled up. The navy consists of one vessel , placed under the command of an English lieutenant , who uul been dismissed in disgrace from the iritish navy , but who was dubbed "ad- niral. " The crow was a rotten lot of ragmutlins. Cadets were improvised rom reform school boys , Before the vessel got out of thfl Jfarbor there was a grand drunk , resulting in the ignomin- ous dismissal from the service 01 several of his majesty's ofllccrs. At last accounts tlUs.procjous crow had gone to annex to the Hawaiian dominions ho islands of Simoa. They are 2,000 niles from Hnwaii.'and ' nobody knows low the expedition has succeeded. Another royal absurdity was the cs- ablishmcnt of sever l "orders. " There ire several of theso-plto "Order of Kala- caua , " the "Order of ) Occanica" and the 'Order of Kapiola'nii" with perhaps others. Attached to , them is all the solemn - omn nonsense of ribbons and decora- .ions , many of vrhibli are. proudly worn by such a ? can afl'oDltho luxury. For vhilo Kulakauiv graciously bestowed hose orders on thoag who have earned ho royal favorit cost/tic , recipient about MOO for the various certificates which go vith them. There word even smokier ransactions than these such a < 5 an at- erupt to divert to the crown certain pub ic lands , the revenues of which should > o applied to public use. the squander- n K or misappropriation of money raised or internal improvements , and the af 'airs of the opium license bribery. Then the legislature was composed of notori ously unlit men "elected by gin , " said the captain and controlled by Gibson and the king. All these thiniis had novod the decent people of the islands .0 prepare to bring about a change. Captain I'ierco said the revolution had iiecn'talked of in a quiet way among men who could be trusted for some time pre vious to his leaving homo. It was feared Jiat it would bo necessary to ttso more [ orco than proved to bo needed. The king was apparently uncasv and sus picious , and ho had arranged the approaches preaches to his palace so that the streets liould bo swept with Galling guns. The "army , " which a few years ago consisted ot sixty ollicers and nine men , had been Increased , but this force was not much feared , as it consisted largely of natives , who were not well ilrilled and not par ticularly ferocious. Still the revolution ists had prepared themselves to do some lighting. They wore well supplied with arms and ammunition , and probably it was the knowledge that they meant busi ness that caused the king to cave so easily. A WASTE OF MONEY. In speaking of Iho pay of Kalakaua , Captain Pierce sav.s that with his salary and the income from the crown lands and sonio other revenues his income is larger than that of the president of the UjlTtcd States. Kaptolani la also allowed 16,000 a year from the public treasury nnd so'mo other membcis of Iho royal family receive liberal Bums. As th'ero arc only 80,000 in the king's do minions , this is a woeful waste of money. It would bo easy to find 10,000 smart Yankees who would run the whole busi ness for $2,500 a year , with a boy to swoop out Iho oflico and go orrands. The king appears to be ' 'on the mako" wherever and whenever it is possible , and it is hinted that some of the subor dinate oQloi.ils have had to divide their incomes with him. But the people are disposed to allnbulo many of ihcso Ihings to the evil inllnenco of Gibson , and are content that the kinjr shall reign under Iho now coiisjUution and with anew now legislature , both of which will ell'oct- ually tlo his hands. " ' ' The American rcside'rits of the Hawa iian "islands favor annexation lo Iho Unilod Slates. They jbotfevo this would bo advantageous to this country. "Who ever has tlio SaudvvKh islands , " said Captain Pierce , "cm0 ! command the North Pacilio ocean. > There is no porl to compete with thorn ns a naval station. Wilh a foreign war jid the Sandwich islands in the hands of another power our commerce on the Paeihc ocean would have no show at all.5" There is some reason to suppose that England appreciates this , and it is not diillcult to conceive of a contingency in which she would act for her own benefit.

A THRUST 'FROM BEHIND , Okatlos E , Redfield is Fatally Stabbed by an Unknown Man , FUNERAL OF JOSEPH NEWMAN , Tlio Omaha Victim of the Alanqwa Disaster Interred Shooting UurKlnm Loonl Mis- cellnity. A Murderous Assault. ilascall's arl also known ' r : , as Sperrol's : > ark , was the scouo of a murderous stabbing a flair yesterday afternoon , which promises to cud in the icath of Charles Ktmcr llodtleld , x bright nnd inoffensive deaf nuito , wiioso parents live at 1310 South Seventeenth street. Charley was at the > ark in the afternoon in company with Sd Lacy ( who resides on tlio corner of > cavonworth and Sixteenth ) , and one or wo other friends. While the boys were scuttling in a good naturcd manner - nor , three Germans happened to pass , ono of whom had his hat accidentally cnockcd from his hand by the boys in sport , when the Gorman m towering rage turned and struck young lied Hold on lie back of tlio head. Kcdfiold turned , and in the pantomino language ot the leaf and and dumb began to cposttilato with his assailant. The German not un derstanding that Redfield was deaf , and evidently thinking ho was making sport of him , hit young Hedlield again. This angered the mute and ho drew back his list o retaliate , but quick as a flash ono of the other Germans whipped out a murderous looking dirk over a foot long ind plunged it into Hedficld's back. Ho dropped on his face and the blood spurted copiously from the wound. Sco- ng the mischief they had done the Ger mans took to their heels. Iledliold'.s com panions wore all more boys , and instead of sending for n physician and convey ance to take Kodlicld home , they In their * 'right ' determined to carry him to n iliysician. The nearest physician was 'ully a mile away , and to his office they half dragged , half carried the wounded youth. Kodfiold's parents are well-to-do people , but Charley was n his rough working clothes and the doctor noticing that the patient was shabbily dressed refused to attend to lim. The expostulations of Iho boys and their assurances that the bill should bo paid were met with a deaf oar. At least this Is the story that the boys indignantly relate. The young follows decided next , o take him homo , but found themselves oo exhausted to proceed further with dm. Happily at this juncture Seth jrower ( a UKE compositor ) and Hud liar- kor appeared on the scene and lent their [ rosh energies to the aid of the boys and young Kcdtield was taken to his hemet \t lyiG South Seventeenth street. Jr. Hyde was immediately sum- noncd. Ho probed the wound and found it was under the left scapula , and extended four inches into the lung. HIP patient was weak to exhaustion , liaving bled copiously both internally as well as externally. The wound is a dan gerous ono , but Charlie's robust constitu- , ion is the single hair of hope by which lis life hangs. The slightest excitement or exertion will produce a fatal hemorrhage. The dirk was double edged affair and , he wound made is long as well as deep , laving severed the mtorcastal muscles nnd lung over two incites. His assailants wore all Germans , ono tall and the other two rather short and thick nut. The assassin who did the stabbing is described as a chunkv short necked , llond , mnootli-faccd fellow about twculy years old. His eyes are a dull blue , and his whole face is characterized by a stolid and brutish look. Young lledficld is twenty-three years old , and is a printer by trade , being at present employed in tlio job department of the Herald olllce. Ho is a favorite with those who know him well , and is in every way inoffensive. Ho has be.on deaf since ho was three years old , but despite this great calamity ho is well educated , and has excelled in his exacting work as n compositor. HHSTING AX 1'IjfcjASANT HILU The Funeral of Yoiinir Joseph Now- 111 an Yesterday Mornitifc. The remains of Joseph Newman , who perished in the Manawa disaster last Thursday night , wore interred at Pleas ant Hill cemetery yesterday. The funeral services were hold at the homo of the bereaved parents , Mr. aud Mrs. B. Newman , No. 2321 Dodge street , at 10 o'clock in Iho morning. Rov. Dr. Uenson , of Iho synagogue , conducted the riles wilh all the solemnity and sentiment which the sad occa sion demanded. The attendance from both this city and Council lilnlTs of the friends of Iho deceased was very largo , the expressions of sorrow and sympathy unusually deep and heartfelt and the tribute of flowers without many parallels in quantity and magnificence. The pall bearers selected from the young men of the dead youth's acquaintance , were : Max Rail , Fred Seligdohn , Will Fisher , Arthur Rinskopf , Hugo IJrandcis , Will Holler , Joe D.uibaum and Mr. Hlanchford. A delegation of fifty from the Young Men's Hebrew association at- tnndcd the services in a body nnd placed upon the bier a largo pillow of vases with the name "Joseph New- man" wrought In pansies upon it. An other pillow of similar design bore the word "Brother. " In addition to these there were two largo Gates Ajar , ono harp , three lyres , stars , boquets and tlowors in clusters and garlands beyond number. Tlio procession to the grave which comprised 300 carriages was ono of the largest ever soon in the city. The grave itself was banked and mounded with flowers as further tributes to this much lamented young man. Seldom has the death of one so young evoked such general regret m a community and the sym pathy felt for the stricken parents is as broad as the limits of the two cities which jointly shared the griefs * of that night of storm. Tlio deceased was an intellectual , prac tical and refined young man who gave every promise of a life of profit to him self and his follow mon.
