The call is sinned by many prominent citizens and the pastors of the different churches , "WALK YE IN IT. " Demi ( Innlncr r lnt * Out thnWiiy nml. SlinttR Hoinn Dancer * tint iiicotnpns : It. Dean Gardner talked to the men at the 4 o'clock meeting nt the Young Men's Christian association hall yesterday after noon , Ono of the Interesting features was the orchestral prelude , aad the singing by the Trinity cathedral quartet. The attonjlanco was very good , the largo hall being moro than half filled. The dean's address was In the nature of a wanting to the men of the many pitfalls that line the opathway of this life , and that trust In self Is always sure to result in wrong doing. The scriptural quotation , "This is the way , walk yo In It , " is true in every sense , and its meaning that the pathway of the Almighty Is the ono' to bo followed , neither turning to the right nor this loft. Ho thought that what was needed was more an active sincere Christianity , ami : i strict compliance with the ten commandments. Ho knew that apologies were continually being made for sins committed. The trouble was that this Is an ago of speculation and new things and there Is a dcslro to got over the traces. For this reason many professed Christians Insisted upon a slight violation of t lie commandments. For Instance the lover of cards would play for a small stake , and apologize for the sin by saying that it was done only as n pastime and for the exeito- ment , and not for the purpose of gain. The person who drinks found an aix > logy by pos sessing some ailment of the body that re quires stimulants , and yet the word is that a drunkard shall no * Inherit the kingdom of heaven. The speculator of today is doing that which Is stealing , and the apology Is progression. The worst'of all is the apology for sensuality among young nen. In this case the young man's father or some other person docs the apologizing , aud says the wild oats must bu sown. To avoid the violations of the command ments 'a guldo is needed for each and every one , and the word of. God is the one that will prevent a person being lost , and the troad- lug of the narrow path will lead the way to eternal life and happiness. - * - ONE MAN FINISHED. Oiitcomn of tlio Urcitt Walking Match from Onialm to Fremont. That walking match was walked , all right , but none of the walkers are saying much about it. However , three or four of the fast men of the pedestrian club are keeping up .1 thinking that would paralyze the brain of the average individual lu less than one round. Only one man finished. About 7:30 : yesterday morning Henry Los tcr dragged his weary limbs into Fremont and scored a winner , having been a little moro than seven hours on the road , and ready to make oath ho htm boon walking seven days. But ho was the winner and the sweet .strains of the Fremont band sour.ded as dear to him as though ho hud Just arisen from a night of peaceful rest in stead of having Just completed what is irobnbly the most wearisome tramp ho over engaged In. There was a big crowd at the loint of finish to meet the visitor and to subsequent ! welcome the weaker ones who 'ell by the way and walked in on the wagon. Ono of the stipulations of the match was that thu route to be followed should bo the old Military road. Four or five of the fast est walkers of the club started out under the lillotago of a member of the Guiding Wheel club , the latter being suspected of faimliarltv with the route. For about three miles this side of Bcnnlngton the road runs almost duo : iortn. At Bt'iiulngtou it forks , one going west to Fremont , thu other toward 'Blair. By some moans the pilot took the wrong fork and kept on north , instead of going west. When daylight dawned there were four walkers and a bicycler In the purlieus of Blair , and almost as far from Fremont av when they loft Omaha. What subsequently occurred will never bo known , but the next tlmo that bicycler starts out to pilot iv pedes trian tour ho won't do it. ON AN ERRAND OF MERCY.

( 'olirort lit the I'll r It. rho'soeoiid of the Sunday open air concert s of the season of 181)3 ) was given at Hanscom park yesterday afternoon and enjoyed by several thousand people. H was only marred by the presence of a score or moro of small boys in the bund stand , whoso antics and nolso did not make the best setting In thu world to the Wagnerian and Handelian num bers on the program , The balmy ntmuaphcro was warmed to Just enough of a summery degree to Invltn to an outing on the green sward , where the rap- Idly spreading leaves .throw a shifting , but qulto accuptaulo shade. It was the first visit that many had made" to the park this year , and they found that delightful breathing spot In more attractive condition than over boforc , although the spring's work Is by no means as yet completed , The sward seemed moro velvety and the walks and drives hardnr and better cared for , although the llowors that are to grace the many odd- shaped beds are still In the green houses on the west side of the park. It was u.matter of regret that the ruins of the burned pavilion still remained , and that the park hoard had not moved moro promptly in the work of rebuilding , so that material bonotlt might have been derived from the now structure during the early part of the season. The concert was rendered with all the ex cellence of the full Musical Union band , under the painstaking and arvlstlo direction of Conductor Herman Schunko , and gave promlsuof the many delightful musical treats that are In store for the people of Omaha during the coming season.

The most valuable thine a city has Is its young men.

Ulchard Stahl.'d ' .tSald Pasha" opened the seven days RO S. < JII of light opera at loyd's New tnpatcr last evening and .ho work was well received by the largo audience that attended. Its score Is pleasinely tuneful throughout and ts action and dialogue nro entertaining. The 2alhoun O | cra company , which made ts debut in Omaha last ovonlng , Is qulto strong musically , much stronger than most companies presenting comic opera at "popu- ar" prices. Every member of it Is a vocal- at of merit , and Mr Bache , the tenor ; Miss Mlllanl. the prima donna soprano , and Miss arrio Godfrey are artists on the level of the .irlncipals of companies styled "loading. " I'ho chorus Is an admirable one , the parts well balanced , the voices strong , fresh and clear. The ladies , by the way , are prepos sessing of countenance and shapely of limb. I'ho orchestra fills its part adequately , and Welding the baton is the admirable Carl Merlenn hlmclf. Last evenings performance went smoothly from opening chorus to finale. The company las rearranged the opera In two acts , an .mprovement. Miss Laura Millard as Se rena looks charmingly and slugs particu larly well , her delivery being especially 3lcaranu telling ; her volco possesses , too , that rare sympathetic quality audiences can ipprcclato In an operatic soprano. Miss my l csllo , announced on the program to iing AHI , was prevented from appearing last evening through sickness and Alias Car- ; 'ie Godfrey , who -"created" the part , took icr place , captivating the audience by her rendition and evoking a hearty recall for her principal solo. Mr. Martin Bacho displays a line tenor organ in the part of Tcrranorhls rendering of "Two Ryes of Brown" being al most flawless. Mr. Henry Loom's baritone is very effective , shining lu ono of the notable numbers of the score , "My Love is Like u Lily Fair. " Mr. Thompson in the title part earns high praise. The comedy element of the opera is very capably sustained by Messrs. Flint and Calhoun. Mr. Flint is acomodian who can sing oven better than ho can clown and Mr. Calhoun presents a bit of humorous work that cannot bo too highly praised for Its moderation aud q lot offectiveness. At the prices charged tl.o Boyd should bo well lllled at every performance : the company and its work merit all the patronage it can receive , putting up an excellent presentation of light opera. _ _ Olomn CrHto" nt the l''urnain , "The Son of Moh to Cristo" opened a week's engagement at tbo Farnam Street theater yesterday and the excellence of the performance should insure good audiences during the remainuer of tlio week. .Tbo drama portrays the closing scenes of that adventurous and fascinating history which constltutsd the most noted contribution of Dumas to historic1 tlction. The company which is presenting the drama this week is headed by Fr.ink'Lliidon and his daughter , Edna Karlio Limlon ; who prove themselves hilly equal to thc-'cxTgeneies of their parts. The other characlcrt are assumed in a man ner which If not iuaked by the highest de gree of histrionic talent , is successful enough to bo exceptionally enjoyable. The prologue Is introduced to depict the death of Monte Christo and affords ftlr. Linden an opportu nity to win tho' faVor of the audiettco by his strong portrayal of the dying hours of the" : man of so many mysteries ani adv'dntures. The llrst act finds his son lighting in the French army in Algiers under thojiirme ot Captain Alberto , where he is Joincrt by Dangler , who has purchased the coltmdlc.v of his regiment for the express pur'pos'e of forcing the young captain into n quarrel and then having him shot for assaulting It'superior oniccr. ilo is partially successfnTnnd leaves for Franco , leaving Alberto wider sentenceof death. The latter la rcsuuod by his sweetheart , Dangler's daughtsr , Eugenie , who has sought her lover In the disguise ot a young dragoon. The remainder of tno performance tells the story of Alberto's re vengo on his father's ono.niesand his own. and two duel scenes furnish an ample clement of sensationalism. Miss Linden as Eugcnio Dangler deserves all tho.good things that may bo said of her and Mr. Lindon's representation of the char , acter of Alberto was equally satisfactory- La fo Woodson as an Irish corporal who was proud to bo a soldier , but always sought a safe retreat when powder was to bo burned , furnished tlio humor of the performance , and the remaining members of the cast con tribute adequate support.

HE Nonpareils aud the Second Infantry te.un from Fort Omaha played the Jlr.it of a scries of three games for the championship of tlio city at Nonpa reil p.irk , on Vln- ton street , yester day afternoon. The Nonpareils como out victorious ny the rather Ion-sided score of f > to i , It was n delightful flay for n game of ball , with an unclouded sky and Just enough of n brcozo to render the condition of things Just right for perfect physical comfort. The consequence - sequence was that something like a thou sand cranks ami crankesscs turned out to witness the snort. And they enjoyed themselves Immensely. for dcsplto the fact that the hitting was light on both sides It was a rattling gamu from start to finish , characterized by such brilliant Holding that the r.ithcr numerous errors canm and wont without apparent notice. Jellun was on the slab for the Nonpareils , and It was this fact that materially helped them on to victory , .lust when Undo Sam needed a hit , a nice llttlo liner say out over short or past Flynn Jell would don that stop-a-horse-car smile of his , give the ball a tantalizing twist and Io ! a soldier tumbled every tlmo. It must not bo Inferred , however , that there wasn't any pitching on the other side , for there was. An elongated specimen of the genus mllitalrc , known to his Immediate friends as General David Foutz McElvain. did the convolutlng for the Infantry boys , and so well did ho do It that ho would have won the game had ho been supported a little bit. As it was ho struck out four men and WIIB touched safely but for five hits , ono of which was a lucky homer. The bright particular star of th after noon's performance was the second base play of Sam McAuliffo. Ho played profes sional ball , as did Harry Stonoy for the Gov ernment. About the CHIMP. The soldiers were the llrst to lee the plate. and .IiilIiMi opened up by allowing Colonel Trapper.the old Texas leaguer.to wallc down on four wide ones. This cut no ligure , however - over , for ti'ieoy nailed him to ttio cross a moment later as ho attempted to nip second. Shea then reached station No. I on an ex cusable miscue by McAulUTo. After Private -itoncy had ponpcd tip a blub nno to Croft , Shanahau made an error big enough to eat buy , on which Corporal Shea trotted over the saddle rock. That was the only tlmo the blue coats had a chance to holler , for the next moment Bradlord slammed thu nontenant out at lirst. lirst.The The Nonpareils quickly tied the score. Croft was sidetracked at llrst by a quick throw from I.icutonant Wright , then Gen eral McElvain plugged .Icllen in the ribs and successive blunders by Major Duberry and Adjutant E. Cody boosted him homo. But that was all they did , for Gencrj.1 McElvain settled down to business and otnick out both Bradford and Shanahan. Both sides drew horse collars in the next two innings , both pitchers striking the side out in the second , .lolleu turning tl.o trick consecutively , while General McElvain mar red his work by allowing a man to reach base on balls. But it was clever twirling , wasn't It. Again in the fourth the Administration drew a prize in the Louisiana lottery a blruk. and in fact kept on drawing them in each inning until the game , was over , so In fantile was their fondling of the stick. Not so , however , with the doughty South Side bovs. So Tliof Won. They saw General Frederick sitting in a priviito box with : i smile wreathing his handsoina face as broad as TUB Bnu build ing , and they determined that ho should have his money's worth. So in their half of the fourth t'.iey began to dish U up in largo ladles full. Bradford slashed three gaping Assures In the bland May atmosphere ami went nml cast his manly form in the shade of an ad jacent maple. Shanahan then pasted a safe ono out Into right , and not to bo outdone Champion Lightweight McAulUTo gave his sable knickerbockers an extra hitch , and biff ! Everybody thought that Spud Parish had touched oil a giant llrecracker , but thov wcro mistaken , It was simply McAulllTe's club caressing ono of General McElvaln's choicest slants , and before any ono could fairly roallzo what had happened the spher ical plgsKin was cutting its way through the odorous cytisus alpinu * bushes way out over the promontory in middle Held. It was just lUo ono of Papa McCauloy's old-tlmo smashes , and when the ball got back home Sammy was there also. "Hey ! hey ! hey ! " yelled the delighted- crowd the same old slogon thst used to qua ver on tlio air so often out nt Sitortmmtn's p.irk , The next two men wcro quickly switched off anil the .score stood : i to 1. After Colonel McGiniss and Major Trap per had been sent to the hospital In the llfth , Captain Shea fairly scared himself to death by cracking out a three bagger , which , in his fright , he endeavored to stretch Into u homo run , but Mahoney and Bradford wcro too alert for him , and when ho reached the plato It was only to have the ball poked Into his abdomen by Governor La coy. the throng broke out In an uproar. In their half the Nonpareils made an other pair. Timothy Flynn pushed ono out over Major Trapper , and General McElvam's very marigold fumble allowed Mr. Fox to reach llrst ; then Croft made a hit and the bases were full of black-robbed athletes , and the Soldiers full of pain and prunes. Jellcn followed with another buto , on which Flynn scored , but In some way or other Foxoy got tangled up In the shuDlo that followed the return of the lull and Cor poral Cody and General McElvain killed him. Private Stonoy supplemented all this work by a pardonable error , on srhich Croft ran In and Jollon reached third , only to bo doubled , however , n second later on Bradford's llttlo para bo ! U : lly to Major Trapper , which ho tossed wings , logs and all to Private Stonoy , By this tlmo all the vim had been knocked out of the battle , and the remaining innings were us gentle us Mary's little his torlo lamb. Not another run was scored , But say , it was quite a gaum , wasn't HI The details : NO.M'AIIKII.S. AH. ii. In. xii. mi. ro. A , K.

If the wo.tther Is * at all favorable the Brooklyn handicap will bo seen tomorrow by the largest ciowd that has ever b en seen in the Brooklyn .lockoy club's enclosure. The race never looked moro open. An opinion was universal tonight that Lamplighter would go to the post the favor ite. Ho will probably open at 8 to r , , but if Pierre Ixirlllard does not send up a big com mission irom Johnstown , or If M. F. Dwyer does not decide to plunge on him , Lamp lighter ought to bo 8 to 1 , or II to 1. Banquet oticlit to bo the second choice , but If Mr. Dwycr decides to play his horse. Ban quet will go to the post the favorite. Of the others Clnrado and Judge Morrow will un- qunstlouably find most support. Judge Morrow Is as uncertain as an Indus trial stock. Ho Invariably does what ho Is not expected to do. In tomorrow's raeo ho has all the advantage of a skillful iand com petent 1 trainer and of being perfectly lit. If the track is heavy there will boa plunge on Mars. This gallant horse was for a long 0t tlmo an object of abuse and ridicule. Ho is of i an extremely nervous temperament , and , as --year-old , was never quite able to do himself justice. Lust summer and fall Mars showed Ills best form , and he was then a really good class handicap horse , -veil up in the second division. Ho has unlimited cour age and ability to go twice as far as he will bo asked to travel tomorrow. Pickpocket was well nanuul. Ho has run worst when ho should have run best and his career has been ono long disappointment to his stable and Its followers. Ho Is a great horse In his trials and usu.illy a very poor horse In his races. Ho will not lack prenar- atlon , however , for his trainer , J. W. Hojrers , Is ono of the most foremost men in his busi ness. llnnitt | t In (5rout I'orm. Banquet has never won a lomr race in the spring and it will surprise every good Judge if Banquet wins. That ho will bo well ridden with Garrison in the saddle , ( rocs without saying , and ho has been carefully trained for the race. Itussell docs not care to go a mile and a quarter , and In addition Uusscll Is an over rated horso. Besides , he has been raced lee much , and it will bo a matter of great aston ishment If this erratic and uncertain horse should win. ( Jharada looks dangerous. Charade has speed and couragn. If ho gets to tlio leader's head in the last sixteenth of a mile Charade's backers can go down and cash their tickets. It is a great misfortune that his owner could not got. Bergen to rldo this horse for Sloan cannot do him Justice. Nomad will hardly llgtiro in the race , nor will Uaeelaml in all probability. Diablo Is unclasscdand ouglit to bo at the business end of one of his owner's sulkies. Alonzo has not shown class enough to win such a race. After everything has been said the best horse in tlio race is Lamplighter , and It is thought ho will win and win easily. But ho will have to bo free to win. The Indications are that the handicap will be run over a track slightly deep and slow , but as soft as anybody could desire , there bein ; ; two or three Inches of loose dirt on tlio top of the hard ground. If no rain falls the time should bo between 8:08 : and 2:0' : ) . The time of Dry Monopole , 8:07.1 : , is the record for the distance at Giuvcsend.
