commissioners , bovaa violently Hung into
Jail. Previously , however ) ho declined to
glvo up his pocket book when he was
searched , because hi ) had something In It
which ho wonted to keep private. Ho

of the Jail nnd the pocket book
was wrenched from him by the attendants.
Ho remained In the Jail moro than two hours
and no opportunity was given him to prove
bis Innocence. At length the representative
of the park commission who had hired him ,

Uncling the team at the station. Ho Bought
to toke possession of the team , but the o Ill-
Co rs refused to relinquish them , Finally nn
explanation was made by the parlc cammis-
misBion and House was discharged. Ho lost
much of his tlmo , suffered the disgrace of
arrest and was compelled to uubiutt to the
brutality of being bcutun on the floor. I told
him if he would ilvo the name or names of
these who throw him on the floor , I would
bring the matter to the attention of the coun

bcmg'lackcd ' up , nnd having hoard of cases
whora men had never got back money which
had boon taken from them I put my hand on
my pocket nnd refused to give up my purse.
The Jailer told mo to give it to him , and when
I refused to do so throw his arm around
mo , grasped mo by the throat and throw mo
heavily to the floor. He then hold mo nnd
took the pocket book nwny , In the fall my
left arm was badly bruised , ana is now black

bouse I live in , besides other property , and
that was the first tlmo a polioomaa had ever
laid u hand on mo. There were two pollco.
men present when I witt thrown down else I
should havaroslstod. In dumping tbo earth
whora I did I was acting under Instructions
from my superintendent , and thought I was
doing right. I referred them to him as to
who [ wa , but they refuted to communicate
with hint on my behalf. "

Committee Going to Work In a
Byntomatlo Manner.
Acting upon the old nnd tried idea that no
man can win without using a system , the
State Development association mot last
night and agreed upon tha outlines for n sys
tem. Tbo details will be supplied at the
meeting to bo held this morning at 10 o'clock.
The following gentlemen wore present !
GoorgoW. lilningcr , A. W. Nason , II. D.
Clarke , J , A. Francis , E. L. Lonmx , Omaha ;
E. 1C. Valentino and J. O. Crawford , West
Point ; Joel Hull , Mlndon : J. C. Allen ,
McCook ; C. H. Wlllard , Hebron ; M. A.
Hnrdlgan , Hastings. Mr. Llnlnger presided.
So far as finally settled , the features of the
plan are embodied In n resolution offered by
Mr. Francis and adopted by the committee ,
the main features of which nro that each
county in the stnto should bo asked to con
tribute f300 through Its board of commis
sioners to defray the legitimate ex
penses of generally advertising
the state throughout the country.
The request to each board of county commis
sioners Is to be accompanied by a detailed
statement of bow the nionoy Is to bo ex
pended ( and the way that It wl\l \ finally lind
Its way back to tbo donor's pocket is ex
pected to bo the strongest inducement to
glvo. ) The money to be collected through
the local vlco presidents , and all the money
to bo duo on or before October 1 , 183'J. First
counties to contribute to bo given flrst place
In the advertising.
In addition to this it was decided on the
motion of Mr. Allen to employ thrco men ,
ono In uach congressional district , to visit
nnd properly lay before the various boardsof
commissioners the request of the
association for aid , to sccuro
local vice presidents , nnd to
solicit subscriptions from bankers and real
estate men in all the towns and cities visited ,
A salary of $5 per day and traveling ex
penses Is to bo oaid those men. It. K. Hnn-
dall , of Lincoln , was selected as ono of them.
It was the almost unanimous sentiment of
the committee that the best way to adver
tise was through the newspapers special
editions of the city and country press in each
county. No plan of advertising
wns , however , definitely decided upon ,
and that Is ono of the questions to bo dis
cussed to-dny.
A ways and means committed composed of
Messrs. H. D. Clark , C. H. Millard and Joel
Hull was appointed and the mooting ad
journed to this morning.
The Snored Heart academy , for day
pupils , situated on St. Mury's avenue
and Twonty-auvonth atreotg , is nn insti
tution devoted to the moral and intel
lectual education of younff girls. The
courao includes everything from a pre
paratory department to a finished
classical education. Besides the ordi
nary academical courao , music , pnlnt-
ingr , drawing and the languages are
taught. French is included in the or
dinary course.
Difference of religion is no obstacle
to the receiving of pupils , provided
they conform to the general regulation
of the school. The scholastic term be
gins the flrst Tuesday of September.
Classes commence at 0 a. m. , and are
dismissed at 3:30 : p. m. , an hour for

The Toniils Tournament.
There was a larger attendance of society
pcoplo than over at tbo tennis grounds last
evening to witness tbo tourney , and. the mos-
qultos turned out In corresponding largo
numbers. The high collared and low cuffed
English swell and Anglomanlaos were saf o
from the onslaught , but the representatives
of the fair sex present bad to submit to being
bled and then stung by tha peats. The
ladies took it good naturedly , however , and'
applauded each favorite as ho made a telling
strike. But lawn tennis is a quieter game
than base ball and lacks all the boisterous
elements of the national sports. As a consequence
quence the applause is given m a very qulut
way , and a crowd of spectators watching a
game of tennis are generally as solom vis-
aged and silent as though they wcro in
church.
Last evening Koombs and Doano faced
each other on the whitewashed area for the
third time to do battle for their respective
clubs. Koombs showed his usual failing of
knocking the ball to bis opponent , instead of
from him , and lost the sot with a score of
3-0 in favor of the Chicago street club.
Nicholas and Reed next" crossed racquets ,
Nicholas winning the flrst sot with a score
of 8-0 , and Heed the second with a score of
0-3. The third sot was interrupted by ap
preaching darkness.
The doubles commenced playing last even
ing for the flrst time. Lawrence and Mur
ray faced Ball and Phillips , both doubles
being from tha Y. M. C. A. club. TWO sots
were played , the flrst resulting 6 0 , in favor
of Lawrence and Murray , and too second ( n
favor of Pull and Phillips with a score of 0-4.

It Is not to bo expected that as good scores

15 per cent for GOO yards , But still , allow

Omaha and Mllwaukoo played the first
game of their last series on tha local grounds
yeatorday afternoon in the presence of prob
ably QUO thousand spectators. Tno d.atnp ,
threatening weather kept many peope | mvuy
from the carle , but those who did bravq the
chances of a ducking were amply gompen-
aated'by ' witnessing as olever a Kftma at the
hands of the Whlto Sox us they have put up
this year.
They actually Chlcagood the Prower&noat
and clean , nnd minus a high throw by Joe
Walsh , played a perfect gatno.
Nagla wu in his old position behind tha
plate , and maybe ho didn't ' do some brilliant
work. Nothing could get by him. and his.
ihnnviiiB was as true and unerring an tbo
work of'n sharpshooter. Ho did not allow
the visitors to steal a single base , and tbo
double play ho assisted in in the fifth WBS
pne of tbo extraordinary order.
It was accomplished in this way :
Silch got his base on balls , after Morrlssy
had wnf ted ; then Alberts popped up a hib (
foul , which Tommy captured 'way ' back by
the playcrs's bench , and then py a remark
able throw to Crooka ut npcond caught Hloh. (
Who trind to reach that base after the ball
hail been , caught ,
This dna work was greeted by an old-tiuja
outburst of applauao ,
Then , In addition to NagbVs fioo Holding.
hn batted superbly ano ; made 9 9uplo pf
runs.
Altogether It was. a great day for Tom.
"Kid" Nichols was in the box for the
home team and the score eloquently toils of
his tnagulllcont work , Ho never pitched a
bettor gaino , and nt the clpso of every Inning
lie wns tumultuousqheered. ! .
Howoyer , the tmtjro to am ncqulttod them
selves most royally , and each man Is entitled
to the ( ulc | t mood pf pralio ,
The visitors , by way pf contrast , made a
rocky exhibition of theuiitolves , mulling ,
fuinulliw nd Juppllng the erratic sphere in
u manner that was painful to witness. It
must bo confessed , however , they had a vast
deal to oofltcqd with In Herman Dooaclior ,
the now uinniro , who , in the early part of tbo
gomo. made several decisions that were wall
calculated to break up any team. Ho evi
dently meant to do what was rignt , however ,
and his mistakes were all on close decisions ,
but aKKravatitiK ns It was , they were always
in dead favor of the Omahas.
Uut the gamo.
Omaha opened up up in the same old way ;
that is , by making i run , After Coonoy had
been retired , Clpveluud trot hi * bat ? on balls ;
ho went to third on Strauss' corker for u
baif. and homo on Crooks' pretty sacrlflco.
Walsh's ' out retired the sulo.
It was one , two three for Sutton , Iowo
and Shock.
In the second , Andrews roacned flrst by
thegracoof Button's fumble ; Naglemndoa
slngla and Canavaa got to flrst on an error
by Morriisey , and the bases were full.
"Now fora liitl" cried a fan from tbo
grand stand.
It was there , and Kid Nichols made It ,
popping up a nlco llttla ono just back of
flrst , on which Andrews and Nagle ran
homo.
That's what's called timely hitting.
A wild Ditch lot Canavan in , then Cooney
and Cleveland went out.
Again it was ono , two , three for the visi
tors.
In the fourth Omaha scored two more
runs.
Andrews mada a hit and stele second ,
Naglo and Cannvhn were retired. Then
Nichols dropped in with his second hit , and
Wally crossed the rubber. Coonoy'a long
fly wns muffed by Lowe , and the Kid ran
homo. Cleveland's out ended the Inning ,
As yet Milwaukee had failed to score ; In
fact they never spared.
What do you think pf that for.porfect
flowing ?
In the sixth and seventh the White Sox
scored four more runs , two In each inning.
These in the sixth wore the result of An
drews' darling throo-sackor , Waffle's second
single , Canavan's out and Nichols' sacrifice ;
in the seventh a base on balls , two rocky
errors nnd a sacrifice did the work.
Thq last run was made in the eighth.
Griffith muffed Coonoy's lonR fly , and an error
ror by Sutton let him round t ° second , apd
on Cleveland's hit ho tallied.
Tha , score :
