enacted law legalizing glove fighting are al
ready known. On the ! kt day of last Febru
ary at Indianapolis Senator Mcllugh Intro

came n law. It remained for Domlnlck
O'Malloy of New Orleans to discover the
bill had been passed for several months be
fore the sheriff of Lake county became
nwaro of the fact. Three men besides
O'MallojC wcro taken Into the scheme and n

hour nnd O'Malley , taking Into his counsel
J.ouls M. Houseman , began operations.
Thrco acres of property wcro bought at a
point 100 yards south of the line which

Juncture where three railroads meet , Iho

Convention of the Intcrimlluiml Typo
graphical Union lit ClilciiKo.
CuiCAdo , Juno 12. The forty-first annual
convention of the International Typograph
ical union met today with 300 delegates
present , Mavor Harrison welcomed the
members. The convention then went Into
executive session on the report ot the coui-
mitteo on the Chllds Drexel printers * homo
at Colorado Springs.
The Childs-Drexel home has been a boiio
of contention over since its conception in the
convention held in Pittsburg in 1SSO. Tlio
home was established at Colorado Springs
and has been open one year. The Board of
Trustees , through whom the homo Is con
ducted , have reported imperfections in the
building and the expenses of operating the
homo have been greatly in excess of the
original estimates. It is also claimed that
the purposes for which the homo was estab
lished have hot been carried out , but that
instead of being a 'place for indigent union
ists , ! ! , has been tu.-nod into a hospital for
hopeless alllictlons.
Some time ago a complication very serious
in its nature is said to have arisen. The
claim was made that serious exposures
would bo made as to the letting of contracts
for the construction of a home. Naturally
the charges demanded looking into and Pres
ident Prcscott of the board ot trustees , was
instructed to investigate. His report today
was on the result of his work in this direc
tion. What ho had for communication was
of such a serious nature that it could only bo
considered in secret session. Afterconsidcr-
able discussion , the t-oport was referred to a
special committee for further consideration
and report.

Tomorrow afternoon nnd the first summer
trolling mooting of the Gentlemen's Koad-
stor club will bo inaugurated nt the Fair
Grounds Driving pane. The prospects could
t.ot possibly bo moro favorable , and with
auspicious weather n splendid success ia
Inevitable.
The scores of horsemen already on the
ground are congratulating themselves on the
Haltering outlook. They nro convinced to a
man that Omaha is nt last to have a trotting
meeting worthy of the name. There will bo
no chicanery In iho management of this
session. It will bo Up and up from the
moment the gates are thrown open until the
last hoof beat falls upon the turf. Thu
character of the gentlemen at
the head of the enterprise the
Omaha Gentlemen's Hoadstcr cluu is an
ample guaranty of this fact. President
Bartlctt and Secretary Martin , lu conjunc
tion with the executive hoard , have put In
three or four mouths of Industrious work ,
with the hope of achieving what now looks
Ike a certainty. Heretofore the local turf
natters have not taken a very high rank for
; oed management or attractiveness , and the
Ity has been donled the profit's that should
iccruo to her through this channel. It is
ho aim of the Hoadster club to bring about
in innovation in this respect and give
Omaha her full measure of credit as a elty ,
apablo of doing a thing and doing it well ,
ml the people should bo careful to see that
they are not disappointed.
Quito the Thine to Do.
Of this , however , there H little likelihood ,
'or Omaha never fails to attest , to her ap-
irceitilion of iho meritorious , let it bo in
vhntsoover line it may. Today horsp racing
s tlio fashionable fad and the meetings all
over the country , both running and trotting ,
wherever honestly and competently man-
iged are meeting with unprecedented suc
cess , and there is mcagro doubt but what
the Gate City will fall dutifully in line. In
the cast the race meetings are veritable so
ciety affairs , the people , ladles and gcntlo-
nen , turn out by thousands , and iiQwhcro
else are such gay and fashionable assemb-
ages to bo found as within the driving
. > arks. Magnificent equipages , noble horses ,
Beautifully attired ladies , bravo men and
superb music are the features. Omaha is
capable of all these and should not be found
.ranting . in tlio present instance.
The park never looked more entrancing
Lhan today. Within the quarter stretch the
sward is as of velvet ; the trees are In full
[ oliage , the track perfection itself aud the
stands cleanly and inviting.

It is easy now to account for the roslgnn- j
tion of Captain John Peters , collector of the- ,
roveuuo for the district of Nebraska and the <
two Dakota ? . His resignation was rb-
qiieslcd by the secretary of the treasury.
I ho request was similar to the one sent to
many oilier colhvlor.s all over the country ;
and it arrived on the 1st of June. It read 1J
something like this : "In order that yourli
successor may enter upon .his duties with f
the beginning of the fiscal year your rcslg-.l
nation would bo acceptable at as early a date'I
as possible. " ' |
Captain Peters forwarded his restg-1 '
nation to Washington one week ago.
Last Friday , before leaving Omaha for hi t
home at Albion , Mr. Peters directed that ail
of liis deputies should bo called In to await
further developments. ! The deputies am
naturally in a condition of considerable sus
pense and most of them expect to look elsewhere -
where for umploymciit nt any Hay.
The chief deputies and clerks will , of course ,
have to bo retained for several months , no
matter who secures the position , but thcyj
all expect to walk the plank eventually. '

Hon. James E. North , was barn In Hicli-
land county. Ohio , in ISIIS. Ho came to Ne
braska in I.\V , ami has been a resident of
Columbus since ISM. IIo has always been a
prominent , public-spirited citi/.en and has
always voted the democratic ticket
In 1SS7 Mr. North was a mi'inbcr of the
state senate. He has been surveyor of
Platte county for eight years , mayor of Co
lumbus llvo or six terms and ho has Illicit
many other oftici's of minor importance. Ho
wrs a candidate for congress in 1SSO ami for
governor In ISM ) , but his party was in a
hopeless minority. Since 1S70 ho has fol
lowed the real estalo business , having for
bis partner C. A. Spolco.
tWhen Dr. George L. Miller heard of Mr.
North's appointment yesterday ho expressed
satisfaction thereat and said that in his
Judgment no better selection could have
been made.
The prevailing opinion among democrats
is that a Nebraskan was entitled to thu
place and that a grave injustice would Have
been done Nebraska democrats had a Dakotan -
kotan been appointed. A local democrat
said last evening that North's appointment
would ho a shock to the democratic
state ciMitr.il committee and particularly
to Euclid Martin , "ft is known. " ho
continued , "that North's appointment was
strenuously opposed by Martin and others
of his faction until they fnund opposition
useless. Contrary to statements made in
the Lincoln Journal North owes his success
lo llio efforts of Governor James K Boyd
and Dr. ( leorge L. Miller , although the
hitler is mil of aclivo politics. For a long
time North lias been known an Ikyd's
friend and candidate. During the last ses
sion of tlio legislature ho voted for Boyd for
senator and continued lo do so until the ox.
governor asked him to vote for Allen At
any rate if the Martin crowd take any satis
faction over North's appointment , It must
certainly bo meager and cold.
