In the Hist place there is not a railroad train that can hold a candle to the slowest duck that lllcs. The eanvasbaek , however is tbo aeiial sprinter of them all. If ho is just out for a little ex orcise ho goes tinniigh the air at a rate of about eighty miles an hour , but if ho has a call and wants to got there b idly , ho can put two miles behind liiin cvciy minute , and do It easily. If jou want to bap a ennvasbaek when passing jou on ono of these tilps , pull about eight feet ahead of him , and jou nun have the ploasuio of dibtuiblng his tail fentheis The mulluid. that most pilzod of nil our wild fowl , not onlj on account of. his delicious table qualities , but for his iiloiitlfulness , Is much slower , but he caniceloJTa mile a minute if he wants to. His oullnarj gait is about forty-live miles an hour 'Iho black duck , llrst cousin of the in illaid , . Is also slow coiapaied Nvith the canvasbatk , nnd the pintail , widgeon , gudwall , billpato nnd wood duck are but little faster The lodheud is a dandy on the "whig , and can keep up a nh'otj ' an hour clip all day long The blue wing teal and his pretty relative , the giecu wingcan 11 v side bj side and nmlto 100 miles an hour without nulling fc a feather. And nmjho jou ihlnk the wild geese Isn't flj' , but hu Is If jou scou wedge of Cana da's so high up that they seem to bo scrap ing the sky with their backs , jou would hardly imagine that thov are cutting the ethereal at the late of 100 miles an hour , but they are. The Canada , Hutchlas , Snow and Speckled Fiout , uro not much on the pcdlstrlanlzo , but on the wing thoj'uio hum mers , ovcrj' one of them. The HomlsPaikgun club are talking of leasing an unlimited tcnitory out along the Finite and electing a tlrst-class shooting box. That this is tlnully to bo thn hope of the legitimate sportsmen , the sooner the JJcuils ilub sets the. example , the better Dr. Oalbralth has rutmncd fiom a trip through Toxus Uosajshe thought he had Been geese In the Holds and on the bais , along the Platte , but was mistaken In certain parts of Texas tie ) honkers take pos session of the plains as far as thonvo can reach , oveirun the streams and bajous , ami in Hlght obscure the thmamcnt. Tko doctor sajs ho can kill more birds with a Winches , torrlllo in Toxus in a day thnn he can with n shotgun in Nebraska in a week. Let's go down. Notwithstanding there Is no law protect ing labblts in this state , not an animal Bhould be shot or trapped after the .Mth o Fehrunry , when their rutting season begins Hnbblts are not so plentiful in Nebraska that there is a call for their speedy cxtci- minattoti. The wild fowl shooters have nil eady begui to talk over and lay their plans for the campaign. In another month the 'ftilstloof ' the pintail's wing , the quad : of ho mallaid and the sonorous ah-honk of ho Canada will be among the chorus of sounds to be heaid In maish and lagoon. Hilly Townscud of Our's gun store is naklng big picpaiatlnns for the accommoda tion of sportsmen this spi ing. Hols ono of the best jmsted of all our local sportsmen uul cheerfully famishes infoimation to all who apply. Theie are few shooters in Omaha who would not back Paiineluo In a 100-bhd race against Chailio Budd , K D. Tulfoid , J A. It. Klllott , Captain Brew er or any other w ing shot living. Omaha Gun club membcis are all Injing : hcir lopes for a big tiap shooting campaign the coming summer and fall. Ur W P.

Thursday night next will bo "club night" at the Omaha Athletic club , nnd ns has been thu case on like occasions of this kind in the past a lively nnd entertaining card of healthy athletics awaits the lovers of sport Preceding the premier event of the evening w ill bo a six-round go , for a purse of j6o , between - tween joung Sandcis of this city nnd Absalom O'Nell of Denver They w 111 con test at the featherweight limit , Impounds , aud nro shaping themselves for an extra hustle. O'Neills the joungstcr that bested Brown of Salt Lake nt the last club soli < \ and Sanders is the lad w ho mixed up in such a lively fashion with Kid Igan on a similar Divaslon SON oral wcyks ago They are. both exponents of the manly art of moro than ordinary ability , partlculaily O'Nell , who Ins faced such craekerjacks ns the Belfast Spider and I'atsoy O'Ixary. Sanders Is a novice , Ibut uproiuulai ; uuu. Both men uio training hard for the go and will put forth their best foot when the gong sounds. Following this comes Joe McHlroy of Newark , N J. , aud the conqueror of Jack Gorman , and George Mlddlcton , n young Knglish tourist , who has won several medals in competitive trials in the Picadillv club , London. These men nro lightweights and w ill f ui nisb a rare exhibition ; they ai o both down to the rcquhcd "heft" and restive for the momentous occasion to roll 'round Once moio It is announced that the club is scrupulous about overstepping the limits of the law In these affairs. The men wear the largest gloves , and while the events are to a flnish , aio ulwajs determined from n scien tific standpoint. There me no feais of any gore How ing , of brutality or anjr of the offensive features of the piizo ring. In quantity , and it mfght be added quality ns well , the spring ilstio carnivals to bo held in Now Oilcans in March will excel the famous gladlatoilal jubilee of last Septem ber. Forntimo it was thought by leading sporting authorities and wiitcrs that the Coney Island club was going to piovo a most disastrous ilval of the Crescent Citj' organi zations , and in time would force them to take to tall grass. All likelihood of this un- wished-for icsult , however , has passed most offectunllj' , and today Now Orleans enjoys an uniivnlcd suprcmacj in this line of busi ness. The tame and questionable character of the events , with a single exception prob ably , that htfvo been pulled off by the Coney Island , their grand faux-pas in the McAuliffc- Uuigo matter , nnd their general lack of getthcieativcncss , bus cooled the ardor of a gcncious sporting vvoild , and once moro it has tinned its e cs toward the state whoso shoies are laved by the wateis of the gulf. The only drawback to the superb manage ment and cntcipiiso of the Now Orleans pcoplo is the fact that thc.v are picparlng to ovcido the thing They have two big nnd powerful clubs down there , the old Olympic and the new descent , nnd each have pie- paied for n venial carnival This would notpiovo so bad if sullldent time was al lowed to elapse between the two , to irivo the loveis of the game an opportunltj to iccover Ono follows so close upon the other that the icsult is bound to piovo inimical to the success of Ixith It will bo n hard matter for the sporting public , who must needs economize oven in the cmjojment of the game , to determine on which will be the most Intelcstlng sot of events , those under thu nuspkts of the old 01 those within the walls of the now club As far as I am con- ceined , 1 shall go caily nnd staj late. On the ono hand , the Oljmpio will open up on the evening of March 1 with a tight for the piemieiship In the welterweight class between the champion , Tommy Iljan , nnd Austialia's wonder , Geoigo Dawson This is fora purse of tO,0X ! ) , and , ON crj thing taken into consideration , is worth as much moic Both men are rated oout of siirht so far us lighting qualities go , nnd nro dcsciv- Ing of thu most liberal pitronugo of the class who follow this sort of amusement for either pleasure or emolument Tommy lljnnlsn phenomenon , If there ever was ono In the ling Hois an numlrablj built joung fellow , gracious nnd gentlcinanlv to ward all men , and has never mot with a single lovcrsu Cieoigo Dawson Is another of the same sou , onlj ho cannot show nn un broken iccord Ho lights for the money there is in it. nnd since coming to this coun- tiv his exploits have earned for him what might be considered a fair competency Monej seems to cut but little ilgure with Kjuu He Is u born pugilist , despite looks and carriage Ho would rather get Into the ring nnd w in his light w ithout com | > cns.v tlon , than to lose and get a big consolation puiso. Tommy may know Just how many cents there are in n dollar , but 1 doubt it. All the same , 1 expect to sco him collar more stuff of the realm on the night of March I than ho over ] > ossessed before That is , 1 mean ho should whip his antipodean adversary. On the night of March 2 the Oljmpio re sumes its series with a double bill fora single price PiecccdIng the great Interna tional wrestling match between Uvnn 1-euls' , America's champion , nnd III nest Hochcr , the Get man Hercules , Billy McMillan of Chicago , nnd Jack Hinesof Btimlugiium , Knglnnd , voltcrweights , will strive for supremacy with the mils. Thu nurse is W.Ooo , while Low is nnd Koobtr will struggle for fl,000 , more than this. On the following night , the 3rd , the Olj in- lie's ginnd finale comes in the shape of a jattlo between big Joe Goddaidof Australia , and "Denver" Kd Smith of Wlcliita , Kan. While the poolest number on thepiogiam , they will get the most moncjan injustice. I should think , Kjan and Dnwson would find linrd to appreciate Goddard w ill inako hash of Smith in less time thnn it takes to tell it. Ho has been whipped bj'old Georpo God- frej' , and bested so many times in limited contests , that it seems strange that any clique of club manageis could bo Induced to hang up such a sum of money for him to light nnybodjGoddard is aeaid all light enough , but in a contest with a man of Smith's calibre , is entitled to no unusual considera tion , other than that which belongs ton man with n nut on him I think a prize lighter is a fool who doesn't take on all the snaps ho can get. Four dnj-s later , March" , the Crescent City club w ill throw open its doois and start the fun. With the picstigo of the old concent enveloping them , tbo ofllcers of this club have not been so fortunate in completing their program , and if they do not get a wiggle on them soon , their much talked of carnival will resolve itself Into a single night's performance , with Jim Hall ns Hailo- quin and Bob Fitzsimmons as Pantaloon to got the bun , a10,000 puiso , the biggest lump of monoj'evcr put up for a sporting event. Of couiso there is no discounting this attrac tion , but on the whole 'tan ' it offset the rare card presented by the Olympic ? Just now the descent people nro doing everything in their power to secuio two moio attractions , and in their cxtrcmltj' may bo forced to match Mike Daly of Bungor , Mo , nnd a brother of Danny Dalj' , by the way , and Andy Bow en , the octoioou. If made , this fight w 111 open up the fun on Mnich 7. For a final event , the club seems to bo nonplussed. Dick Burgo has gone home , and theio is no fit opponent for McAullrto. Billy Mjer , the Illinois chestnut , who , nllow me to mention parenthetically , seems to have a lien on the moguls of the descent club , has Judiciously announced his retirement , which retirement will continue , howoNcr , onlj' until the Xophjr luus ticross some sucker whom ho thinks ho can lick But they aio raie With these men out of it , ami the little fellows nil provided for , the Crescent City is in a bad way indeed Still they aio mon of indomitable resolution , and in their lexi con can be found no such woid ns fail. About the best lending I have stumbled on lately Is Pat Sheedy's stialght tips Ho savs Of the big pugilists nowaetivelj' bcfoio thr public , Joe Goddaidof Australia is per haps the only one w no is honest and slnceio injhis pugilistic aspirations Ho Is diffcicat In every vvaj from his count ! N men Ho is honest and manly. Ho is nmbliious of win ning the woi Id's championship nnd is ready nnd willing to uioet Coibett , Jackson , Mitch ell , Slavin or any lighter bicathing Not onlj ( she willing to do this , but announces that ho will baolc himself to anj icasonublo amount in u sidi- bet , independent of a club muse. Contrast his .conduct with that of the other great gladiators Cute Charlie Mitchell , the slynnd devilish sly Joey Bag- stock of the i mg ; declines to meet him Ho nveisthat ho is after hl/her game la the person of Champion James J Coibott Maybe ho is He Is now pinctleully without home , or country , nnd ho must do something to rehubilltuto JJmself in popular esteem Mitchell 1 bcllevoto bo a bravo fellow and a great lighter , but once I piaetieallj drove him out of Chicago by plTcilug to back Jack Dempsey for f ! > ,000 a side against him , I am satlsllcd now , and was then , for that matter , that ho could whip Dcmpsoy right off the reel , but promised Jack that I would back him , although I told the Noapaiell that It was like burning up the money to do so The bluff worked nnd Mitchell weakened Ho would not meet the bravo lirookljn lad Again , contrast Corbett's and Jackson's tactics with these of Goddiird Jackson fought nn eight-round diaw with the Austialian at home , but ho declines to meet him now He , too , avers that ho Is looking high and wants a go at Corbett , with whom ho also fought a draw The Callfornlan keeps up the couiedj bj smiling In lofty dis dain at Goddard Ho wants Mitchell or oven John L. bulllvan , whom ho defeated two sura marks For them ho will break theatrical contracts and meet either In Sep tember , but the moment Jackson or Goctdard is Haunted before his vision up again goes the "thcatiical contiact" bariicr. it is a' safe lofuge. Now , the truth of the matter is that all these men fear Goddard. They sneer at his ungainlj stjlo and declare th it ho is not up to championship form , but they know in their souls tint ho is a very dangerous cus tomer to take on They know that ho has the hcait of a lion and the strength as well ; that his frame is like adamant ami almost impossible to punctuio ; that bo can give us well as receive teiilllo punishment with Spaitun stoicism , nnd last of all that ho has never j ct met w ith defeat The man w ho , when almost a novice at lighting , could stand off Peter Jackson and Paddy Sln\an , aud easily vanquish such stiff punchers ns Joe Chojnski of Califointa , Mick Dooley of Australia , and Peter Mnlicr of Iicland isn foemun worthy of any warrior's steel. Thoiemedy for existing pugilistic abuses Is Noiy simple JTiist , let icpiescntativo athletic clubs icflain from giving gigantic puises and Insist unon each principal put ting up a fair si/cd wager on the outside ; $10,000 , all told , puise and wager , is plenty to battle for , and the chances for a coirupt deal between the piinclpals miniinircd Second , lot the public fiovvn upon nil at tempts of llghtcis to star as actors , either In horoio comedy or vaudeville roles ; then wo will have a genuine lovival of honest , manly ait , and Diced u race of pugilists and not poscuis.
