B n befitting flnalo
to Omaha's hiuo hall
experience for the
year 1891 , n brief
rovlow of the sltun-
tlon , tOROthor with
ttio story of the
achievements of the
players of the old
team since their tie-
sortlon of the West
ern nssociat Ion
standard , the following -
lowing Is given. In
the first place , the cowardly wreck
ing of the club , and the ilz/lo
of the now oreanlzatlon , dealt the snort
such u blnw as will require many long months
to recover from. 'L'ho proipocti for profoj-
stonal tmto ball , not only In Omaha , out Kan
sas City , Sioux City , Minneapolis nnil St.
Paul liltowlso , ire dim Indeed. One
city has about as good u show
us the other , but there Is no
tolling what the November meetings may
"jring forth.
As to the players who made up the old team.
Vet us "co what became of thorn and how
they faired alnco they jumped this city. In
the first plnco Dan Shannon , the head and
front of all ofYcndlnj , ' , and the man who dis
rupted the Western association , was bought
by one Kcanlou of the Washington associa
tion team , body , boots and soul. Ho was secured -
cured for the purpose he so thoroughly car
ried out-tho ruination of the Omatia club ,
and the wrecking of the whole Western as
sociation. Ito took with him to
the Washington club , old Cy Sut-
clilTo , 1'npa McC.xuloy , Sandy Orinin ,
.loclco HalllRan and Kddlo Kltellorg ; Hiilll-
Bim , however , soon got on to Shannon's
"bought and sold" deal and Jumped him and
went to Cincinnati. Places for Iarry
Twltchcll , .llmmy Donnelly and Clarlco wore
secured wltn the Columbus club , which loft
Uinnha only Trafiloy mid Hakor , the two mou
who stoutly nnd openly refused to bo n p.irty
to Shannon's dishonest deal. Well , what be
came of thoio monI Shannon wont to Wash
ington with a head swelled out of all
Bomblanco to nature , heralded by hlmsolf as
n second Ansoti or Comlsky In man
agerial force , and second
baseman who rould glvo Danny
Klchardson , Fred PfolTor or Bid Mel'Yo ,
cards , spades and Httlo cassino , and beat'em '
silly. Ilo noVcr once reineinbored n lenient
Omaha press , who systematically covered up
his dolleionoies both as manager and captain ,
sirnplv for the need of ttio team and the good
of the sport. Well , Mr. Summon played just
four games for Washington. That was plenty
of the kind , and ho retired to Ijio manage
ment exclusively , and managed to hoodwink
thostoc'kholder'until wituin a month of the
close of the season , when ho was fired bodily.
Orinin did tolerably well , but Itcljorg
lusted ono month , winning ono gr.ino out of
eleven. Sutclilfo and McUauloy both played
the season out tor the simple reason that no
ono could bo secured for tnoir places. Old
Cy hit like a major , but his Holding was
simply Dos Molnes. 1'apa only wabbled
through , and on ttio day before the season
closed , ho anil Old Cy botn were "given the
run. " Donnelly lasted three weeks with
Columbus , which was ono uotter than fell to
Clarke's lot. Twitchcll , who did fairly well ,
remained throughout the season , and of nil
the old team who went over to tno American
association , Is the only ono who is on their
reserve list lodtiyand It must bo remembered
I hat the American is the only base ball
organisation they can play with , ns thov are
DUO and all , with the exception of 'i'rallloy ,
tlakor and Halllgau , on the National ureo- (
mcnt blacklist ,

About all the arrangements have boon
made for a finish contest between Jack
Wllkos of St. Louis and Tom Hyan of Chi
cago. All that romulns to bo done is the fixIng -
Ing of n date. The contest will bo under the
auspices of the Crlob club , whloh has
hung up a pnr.so of $1,000 , each man being al
lowed f 100 for expenses. It will bo the club's
Novombur attraction , but just ! when it will
come olT IH yet to bo decided , but it will prob-
nbly bo November 2.1.
Wllkos , who Is a , stiuaro , manly pugilist ,
nlways ready to mauo an engagement , nnd to
1111 It after ho has made It , without any un
necessary advertisement. Uo writes the
bportlhK editor :
ST. LoutMo. . , Oct. 21. To the Sporting
Kdttorof Tin : Hun : I Have soon several ue-
0 ounts of myself In your paper recently with
r ofori'iico to my meeting Tnmllyan or Harry
McCoy , and I have never yet lifted my volco
In my own defense. You know , Sandy , that
1 am not tnlkor , and this is actually my first
letter to a newspaper man. Yon will plonso
state for mo , however , for the benefit
of the club , that 1 have no choice be
tween either Uynn or McCoy. I think I am

The Omaha and Council MlulTs rltlo clubs
have been unable to mnko n ultch In their
proposed friendly match , the Onmtms claim
ing that the HlutTs have boon guilty of a
veritable backdown , to whloh the latter will
probably take exceptions. In their reply to
the Omnhn'ti ohallcngo the HlutTs were bold
enough to promulgate the opinion that they
wore superior shots but they did not propose
to ue handicapped in the matter of trigger-
pull and weight of gun , They dosircd to
snoot under some regularly recognized mica
nnd Insisted thai , none but ton-pound guns

The Columbus club was foolish enough to
transfer its closing gamns to Milwaukee with
the tiopo of pulling n few extra dollars. As
it was , they lost iponoy , as it was so cold up
there that they were enabled to play but ono
game , and that to amply benches.

No matter whether the association and
league patch up a truce or not there will bo
no excuse tor the Innanguration of another
era of contract breaking. Clubs in both
those bodies offended grievously this year.
Cleveland and Pittsburg were the league
clubs that did so and Louisville nnd St. Louls
offset thorn in the association. In a straight
opon-nnd-nbovo-board light no ono save the
magnates will be badlv hurt. In a disreput
able scramble the game will suffer. League
and association can well afford estranged
thouch they bo to stand shoulder to shoul-
cieron the proposition that players who uro

under contract should not bo" tempted to
break thuir word und pawn their honor.
That should bo tlio damaml nil along the

It was a merry party. There was plenty

Nonpareils have had twenty-seven battles
and pulled out winners In twenty-one.

In these days when there U such a demand
for naturalness nnd realism on the staga , the
palm for superiority must bi nwardod to
"Tho Still Alarm. " Mr. Joseph Arthur ,
who Is also thu author of the wonderfully
successful "Bluo Jocns , " must IJ given
credit for originality and novelty In Ills wall
written drama. On the role of heroes tlio
gallant fireman has been neglected by the
realistic dramatist , and it linn remained for
Mr. Arthur to discover the dramatic capa
bility of the courageous fireman , and Install
him as tha hero of a pulsating nnd exciting
drama. "Tho Still Alarm , " outside of Its
sensational elements , is a cleverly written
Play ; there is a vnrioty of incident anil ac
tion , nnd the strain of melodrama is relieved
by the Introduction of bright , clean comedy.
The story has n charming nnd natural love
clement running through it. Virtue
triumphs over vice ; the v'lhln moels his

down the curtain , Tlio compuiy which will
present tbo play nt Boyd's Now Theatre this
evening and continuing till Wednesday , Is
said to bo superior to any that has ever ap-
penroil in it hero.
The announcement that Mr. George
Konnnn will lecture nt the Grand Oporn
house on Tuesday evening next , his subject
being "An Last Siberian Convict mine , " will
glvo pleasure to Ihoso Interested In a subject
upon which ho Is so eminently well qualified
lo discourse. No ono possessing Iho Instincts
of Immunity can fall to bo Interested In Mr.
Kcnnan's efforts to ameliorate the condition
of iho unhappy vlcllms of the barbarous
Hussliin stale policy , and few will doily that
to Mr. iv'annau , more than to any ether man.
Is duo the sympathy which has boon nrousod
for thorn throughout the civilized world
a well deserved tlllo lo Immor
tality. The achievements of Mr. Ken-
nnn , whoso Hlisslan experiences have made
his name familiar to n great portion of the
reading world , furnish a good Illustration of
thu fact that to the educated , cultured man of
the nineteenth century there Is no such tiling
as an Insurmountable dlfilcully. Wlion wo
reflect that n largo number of these exiles ,
these disinherited children ol tbo czar , nro
not of the class which wo favored Inheritors
of tbo rights grnnlcd us bv Magnn Charta
considered as criminal , but nro rep
resentatives of the highest Kinsiun cul
ture , hard Indeed must bo the heart that
does not sympathize with their distress.
Mr. Kcnnan's scholarly nttaininonts , his fac-
ully for close observation , and his unrivnlod
powers of expression enable him lo present
to the minds of his hearers so vivid n picture
of the state of nffnlis in Kussln that ono can
almost hoar the crackling of the snow under
Iho marching foot of the utifortunate Siberian
exiles nnd can almost catch tha sound of the
mounful sighs which swell from broken
hearts. In this lecture Mr. Konnun will wear
the convict dross , tlio chains nnd fetters that
Hussian cruelty Imposes upon prisoners. The
audience will doubtless bo a representative
ono for Omaha. The reserved sent sale will
open tomorrow morning.
A nowora of good , wholesome , clean comedy -
dy will dawn nt Boyd's now theater Ibo hist
three nights of this wcok , when Sol Smith
Hussell appears in that successful now play ,
"Peaceful Valley , " by Edward E. Kiddor.
This now play in distinctly an original pro
duction , and yet so true lo Ufa that ono can
almost imagine It is all real. Hero is a man
who is natural and the audience marvels nt
his art ; n man who nets with his whole beIng -
Ing , his head , his limbs , and oven lo his lin
ger tips. "Peaceful Valley" is n play of the
higher order , and in it M'r. Sol Smith Hus-
sell is making the greatest success of his ca
reer. So much has already boon said of Mr.
Russell's new play In the local papers that It
Is a dllllcult task to write anyihing "newsy"
about It. There Is little or no doubt Unit Mr.
Husscll , as Ilosca Howe , will repeal his bril
liant success as Noah Vnlo In "A Poor Rela
tion. " Hosea Is a now character , yet ho is
filled with Iho same spirit of qualntnoss nnd
honest simplicity that made Noah Vnlo such
an admirable figure on the stugo. Mr. Rus
sell's ' peculiar style is exactly fitted to the
part , and ho will appear in "Peaceful Valley"
iu a manner that Is moro true lo Hfo than lo
licllon. '
The Omaha favoriios , W. T. Bryant and
Miss Li/zio Ulohmond , and ono of the very
best companies of singing and dancing come
dians that have ever supported these clever
fun-mnkors , will appoafat the Farnuni Street
theater for four nights and Saturday mallnco
commencing Wednesday evening , OcloborliS ,
preaenliug Hoo.v's groalost farce , "Keep it
Dark , " which Is noiv on its sixth successful
tour. "Keep it Dark" has been plaved In
Omaha to largo and delighted audiences and
this will bo the first tlmo that this funny play
has ever been produced nt popular prices.
The plav has boon rowrliton and improved
and is oven funnier than ever , if such n thing
is possible. Among the many specialties in
troduced between loughs will bo : W. T.
Bryant's funny burlesque dance ; Miss Liz/Io
Hlohmond's famous "Telephone Duot" ( a
posltivo novelty ) . Little Alice Hanson ,
America's youngest soubrette , will bo soon in
her own ideas of dancing. U. E. Harron , Iho
German swell , in funny acrobatic songs nnd
dances. John . ) . Black Iu export wing danc
ing , etc. The singing will bij of a high order
and , taken as a whole , ono of the very ocst ,
and enjoyable onterlainmonls lo ho sean at
the Faniam Street theater this season maybe
bo looked for.
From our exchanges it would seem that
Nat Goodwin's career of triumph in the new
"Tho Nominee " has boon
play , , unprece
dented , and after all Iho glowing accounls
brought to us It will ben surprise if tlio
theater is not packed to overflowing during
his engagement hero. In all the capitals of
the country the business has boon immense
throughout the country ; the poptilarily of
Goodwin ovorvwhoro has long boon estab
lished. In "A Gold Mine" and "Tbo
Nominee , " which will bo presented , ho Is
seen lo unusual advantage. The characters
of Iho parts which' ho assumes nro evorv-
Ihlng Umt could bo wished , and tja hns-nii
ndmtrablo company in his support. Ho will
upponrat Boyd's now ihoalor on November

fj If there is onoTnan In America lo whom iho
native playwrights ewe a debt of gratitude ,
it is \V . I' . Crane , the genial coinedian ,
whoso niinio Is familiar from one end of tha
land to Iho other. Mr. Crane believes in tlio
American drama , and when ho began Ills
career ns alone star , after the partnership
between himself und Mr. Robson had been
dissolved , it was with "Tho Senator , " a play
writlen by two bright young Americans , nav-
hip an American story for Its oasis , und deal
ing exclusively wilh typos of character to bo
found In this country. Some idea of iho na-
lure of that popularity can bo gained by the
fact that for the greater part of tlio run of "Tho
Senator" the receipts nt the box ofilco of Iho
Star theater have averaged $10,500 weekly ,
an enormous sum of money for oven n metro
politan Uicater to take in. 'iho comedy Is
bright und sparkling , full of brilliant dia
logue nnd crispy lines , bristling with humor ,
which gives Mr. Crane an opportunity to do
the host work of his Itfo ns a comodlan , and
yet possessed of nn element of horions inter
est \\tilch holds the attention of Iho audience
from tno rise of Iho curtain to iho final full.
It Is finely noted by Mr. Crime and his nd-
mlrablo company , and has won popular
favor strictly on IU merits. "Tho Senator"
will bo presented In this city , with the orig
inal Now York cast , in Boyd's now theater ,
Wednesday and Thursday ovoulngs , Novem
berI and 5. Sale of scats begins Tuesday ,
November 3.
At the Farnim Street theater , commenc
ing with n nmtlnno totlnv , the well known
fiirco-comody , "Skipped by iho Light of the
Moon , " will ro-nppoar after nn nbsonco of
several seasons nnd constitute the nttracllon
for the first half of the present week.
"Snipped , " us everybody knows , Is an ah-
simiHy , but at tun same tlmo it Is one of the
raciest nnd liveliest of farcical skits. Tha fun
begins with the rising of the curtain , roaches
the zenith of hilarity In the oyster bay and
garden wall scene , becomes almost painfully
laughable with the adventures of the Dlnulo
baby , terminating pleasantly with iho
restoration of iho precious infant and
the mollification of nil of the dis
cordant elements , and. iu tbo language
of "Dlnglo" and "Crackle , " "It Is run. ny
very , very funny. " The company this season
Is said to bo composed of clover people ,
nmong whom nro Charluy Huguu , for the
past two seasons with Itlco'i "Corialr" com
pany , In'whlch piece ho was the Irish slave
dealer , who got so awfully seasick when ho
turned plrato ; Thomas Martin , formerly
lending comedian tvllh Iho Maria Greenwood
Opera company , nnd John C. Leach , wall
known for his Impersonations of Iho "hcnthon
Chinee' . ' nnd ether eccentric dialect charac
ters. Among the UuHos of the company nro
Miss Llda Wells , n young nnd pratty soubrette -
brotto , and Misses Dolly Thornton nnd Alfiv
Perry , who , in iho two wlvos , make things
lively for their scapegrace husbands. Sev
eral changes in the way ot music , songs ,
d nnccs nnd other specialties have boeu made
In the play since It was last soon hero.
Gllmoro's band glvo two concerts at the
Coliseum Monday next , afternoon nnd oven -
Ing. This is n most famous musical organiza
tion. These concerts will atTord nn oppor
tunity to enjoy ono of the greatest atinuv
lions In Iho musical lino. When Gllmoro's
band appeared In St. Louis It was Impossible
to keep the iieoplo away from his magnetic
infliienco Gllmoro has solved a mystery
which many bandmasters have labored ever
in vain ho Knows , ns if by intuition , what
will please Ills audiences , though ho rarely
looks nt his audiences. When nn encore Is
called for ha seems to bo In such complete
sympathy with the masses that each selec
tion only raises to a higher pitch the popular
enthusiasm. People from all walks of life go
to hoar Gllmore , and In order to please nil a
great deal of discrimination must bo shown
In the arrangement of the programme. Mr.
Ullmoro brings with him tivo vocalists. The
MUses Schnoclock , who nro .somclhlng of a
wonder in Iho vocal art ; Monsieur Clcdio ,
the great French tenor ; Mr. Ed O'Muhony ' ,
