The first'night ' of the Columbian clubnt
Chicago wsis not exactly a howling success.
Instead of 113,000 or lf.,000 there wcro but
8,000 In attendance , nnd of the two ovcnti
that constituted the evening's card , ono was
a four-minuto ' 'lead plpo" and the other n
long-drawn , monotonous "no contest. "
In the "curtain raiser , " .Too Goddnrd , tlio
champion of the Australian silver Holds ,
punched the supreme wadding out of ICcn-
> nody , the man who wanted to fight Sullivan ,
1 nnd In the main event , Hilly Woods , the
Denver pedestrian , nnd Buffalo Costello , the
champion "drawer * of America , treated the
fanning , perspiring nnd disgusted crowd tea
a rattling peed running race , which old
George Silcr , tlio rt-fcreo , chopped oft in the
llfty-sovcnth heat nnd announced ' 'no con
test. "
There is no gainsaying that Major Slier
was eminently correct in the role cut out for
him. There is every Indication in thai square
1 Jawandsovero mouth which the major car
' rics around with him that ho is a man of the
most rcsoluto determination , nml when ho
once makes up his mind it will take some
thing llko n profound argument to change it.
i , Ho is not going to bo monkeyed with by any
; faking "stuff. " or sot of "stuffs , " nnd has
1 \ token the right course of convincing all sucl
that this is his inexorable Intention.
Of course the Columbian made a mlsstoi
when it oiKjncd up with any attraction but n
strictly first class one , considering , too , that
it would liavo been as easy as the Itch to
have started out with almost anybody tlioy
saw proper. Tlio woods is fairly overrun
with Impecunious pugs willing to go into the
ring and bo hit with a sledge hammer , oven
for the small end of n reasonable purse , and
out of the many the Columbian should have
at least selected a quartet for their inaug'
ural ceremonies commensurate in ability
nnd attractiveness to the Importance of the
occasion. Hut let that pass. The export
euro has been a salutary lesson to the Windy
City organization , nnd nmro circumspection
will cortalnlv mark their maneuvers In the
to como. The next time they hire Costello -
tollo and Woods It should ho by the day.
P. Jay Dojiohuo , the sporting editor of the
Now York llccorder , is an eminent author
ity on affairs pugilistic , nnd ono of the newsi
est , most etiteriaining writers In tlio coun
try , which ho could baldly hell ) but bo con
sidering the almost boundless Held ho lias to
glean nnd garner from. It looks to mo , however -
over , as if I' . Jay is Jolting his reputation
for fairness pretty hard in the animus lie
evinces toward all listic organizations that
nro not nurtured somewhere within tlio ox-
tchded inlluence of Gowanus. The Coney
Island club appears to bo Doiiohuo's micro
cosm , if the expression is permissible , and
it is only words of ridicule and censure ho
has for Now Orleans , Chicago or any other
nspiring points outside of Judge Newton's
jurisdiction. . Latterly P. Jay has boon fairly
licking Governor Muthows on Doininlok
O'Malloy and the now Columbian , but thus
far Dominick 1ms escaped with the funda
mental basis of liis pantaloons intact , and
the Columbian continues to stand in undis
turbed serenity out nt Uoby.
Hero is what P. Jay had to say a day or
two before the Chicago opening :
"There is an old story to the effect that a
locomotive engineer commended a bull for
having Die pluck to light the iron horse , but
condemned the bovine for exhibiting a lack
of .good sense , and , in the light of recent
events , the moral of the story seems to bo
applicable to ono Dominick O'Malloy , now of
Chicaco , but formerly of Now Orleans.
"O'Mslley is the head center of an aggrega
tion of sportsmen banded together under the
name of the Columbian Athletic club , with
headquarters in tlio Windy City and a clul )
house at Uoby , In the Hoosier state. They
prdposo to run glove contests between prom
inent professionals in the club house , anil ,
notwithstanding the fuct that Governor
Muthows of Indiana has siilil not with a L
great big N , Mr. O'AIalley and his associates i
have gene along on the lines laiu down and I
unnounce that the first soiics of contests i
will tuko place Monday nighr ; governor erne
no governor.
' It depends on circumstalices whether Mr.
O'Malloy or Governor Mathews will play the
part of the dismayed and disgruntled bull ,
but nt this writing it scorns to mo us if tlio
governor had more than an even chance of
repeating the exclamation of the locomotive
engineer : 'I llko your pluck , but your
sense. '
' Perhaps the town marshal of Koby is llko
Marshal Jones of North JuUson and will
stand for tlio g.wno. Perhaps , also , the
sheriff of f.ako county will go to Hammond
uftcr horse thieves , as did Sheriff Jones
when McAuliflo and Myers fought , but will
Governor Mat hews stand this Map in the
lacot I think not. Past experience with
tlio governor ot the llooslor state has shown
that when ho sots his loot down an a tiling
the number nine brogan generally crushes
ttie thing stepped upon. He Is a most posi
tive man , and if tlio Costollo-Woods battle
takes place Monday night at Hohy 1 will
miss my guess , "
Pull off now , P. Jay , and plvo us Indians
out hero a show for our white alloy. Wo
are just as fond of a scrap as yoji are.
Jack MoAuliffo Is upon the hounding At
lantic this morning , probably. Ho was to
1mvo sailed for Kngiand on the Majestic
yesterday. It Is not definitely stated just
what Jack is going over for , but it Is Hkolj'
for recreation and a light. These are hand'
In-hanU pleasures -with the gay nnd festive
WilllanlsburKcr , and with Charlie Mitchell
as a ehapurono. ho will make the wollcln
sing simti-hcs from nil the Into operas. II
Jack makes a light on the other side there Is
little question but what it will bo with Uicli
Hurgo. Old man Uarnpy is not spoiling foi
tight , but hu it rattier said ho is sputlod fein
n light. McAulllto 1ms regretted It ovei
since that ho allowed Ilurge when ho was
uvcr here to got away without measuring
strength with him. But the follow was
llguring on top much wolghtfor Jack , ami
so the thing fizzled.As to Carney , ho h
probuhi v still sore over his experience will
McAnlllTo and contingent at Hovcro Heart
in IbrfT , Ho got a Jlltlo of the true Drum
inagein mudicino there ; I hardlj
think any falr-mlmlud authority wll
deny that. It was n hghl
for the International lightweight champion
ship and $1,600 , nnd there were soventy-foui
rounds of it , lasting four hours , llfly-olgh
minutes and llftoon seconds. When the rini
was invaded by our Jack's cohorts there Ishu
little room for controversy but what Jem wai
Rotting thuf best of It. As It was , the referee
ereo resigned , the finish was postponed , am
the stakes drawn , Time may have oradl
catcd from the depths of Carney's thoraol
region all the disappointment nnd malovc
leuco against Jack engendered by this opl
sodo. He knows too well how that gam
goes , aud will probably extend the hand o
coed fellowship , instead of a knotted Ilbi , t
JMcAullffo when he lands. Ho this as i
inayvJiowoTcr , if tlio ( englishman Is averse
he'll And the American agreeable to an
kind ofan _ argument from a knock-down 1
a bar-room to a llnish mill inside the ropes.
Stanton Abbott , the alleged present light
weight rhamplon of filmland , It will bo ito
inombered , cumo over here a couple c
months since to whip , or get licked by Jacl
but did not catch ou for reasons innumoraoii
and as has bcon announced in those column
previously , will try Andy How on instead , u
Now Orleans tu August. Thcro was nether
other Alternative for Stanton : it was th
Creole or wnlU back to England , and as It I
uoh a lony way 'round. Abbott wisely too
on Mr , Dowon. If hfl defeats Andy thei
may bo o chance forego with Jack yot.
There is no certainty , though , that tli
Brltou can turn this trick. Bowoa li mad
out of pretty good stuff himself. He whlupe
Billy Meyer ouco and made a draw with hii
another time , or the mult was equivalent I
a dravr , and for the last twelve months he
won a nuiubor of fairly good tight * , Abbot
W courts , U iooioWhat of an calcina to U
fancy on this side. ITo ha * shown up toler
ably well , with an exception or two , In his
llmltort bouts nnd there may bo tnoro to him
than Is now generally supiwsod.
In talking about Ho wen some time ngo P.
Jay said : "When I call Andy 'Howln ?
Uowen , ' I am moved to do so because of tno
little Creole's Actions in the ring. To thee
who sen Uowen for the first time hU actions
are most laughable. If ho knocks down an
opponent or scores n staggering blow ho
almost invariably refuses to follow up his
advantage. The glory of landing the punch
seems to satisfy him nnd he retires to the
center of the ring and bows to the'assem
bled multitude.1 His desire to show how ho
would bow if presented to the Princess
Eulalia almost caused him to lese his b i ckcrs
money in his second light with Myers , when ,
nftor knockinp Hilly to the ropes , Andy re
tired to make his bow , and , while courtesy-
Ing , got a right-handed smash that caused
him to make a grand salaam. "
The Coney Island club Is in somewhat of n
quandary over the meet they had scheduled
notweon Jack Dempsey and Hilly Smith , and
In discussing the situation Macon McCor-
mlcksaysamong many other excellent things
In the New York Advertiser of Sunday last :
"As I wrlto wo nro In the dark ai to
whether Jack Dempsey will box Billy Smith
nt Coney Island or will not. Tlio Coney
Island folks are reposing coiilldonco that ho
will In the fact that ho has never heretofore
broken his word. Jack has many friends
here who would hate to see him licked again ,
and for that reason they would sooner see
him tackle Billy McCarthy than Smith. I
would prefer to see him retire from the ring
altogether. "
The Sioux City cluD Is enterprising If
nothing else. Last Tuesday they sinned
Jack Davis , the ox-Omahog , and Jack Uows
for a llnish light for 31,01)0 ) , July a ,
the men to weigh In at 100
pounds. Dews , they say , U from
Philadelphia , but they are mlitakcn by
about 1,000 miles. Dews IB an Omahu mnn ,
aud nn unwise one , too , I'm thinking1. I saw
him light twice , and licked just so many
times , once by Davis himself , and again by
Prof. Jim Hightower. Dews is a pretty nice
sort of n chap , generally , but no sort of n
match for Davis. Jack knows more about
lighting in a minute than Dews can learn in
a month. Still ho told mo the other evening
that he was novcr In such condition as ho Is
now , Knd that ho was sure ho could "do"
Jack. Still I advised him to kcop'out of the
muss.
"Hut if I fool a whole lot ot people you'll
give mo duo credit , Won't you ? " persisted
Dows.
I told him that I wrote about pugilists
merely for the entertainment of the class
that enjoyed tlio game and not through the
fear or for the favor of any lighter. I al
ways try to bo fair and -nil continue to bo
so as long ns I wield a pencil. 1 have done a
good deal fora good many lighters and never
refused one a favor when called upon. 1 con
sidered It a kindness when I told Dowa that
I thought ho had no show whatever with
Davis. Hut ho is a game fellow ana thinks
differently. _ The 2d day of July" will tell
which was right. SANDV GIIHWOLU.
A Day nn l.nlui McKlr.tlmn.
It was with many misgivings that several
followers of Father Izauk , at tlio suggestion
of General J. It , Buchanan of the Klkhorn ,
went to West Point last week to try con
clusions with the black b.iss said
to Inhabit the lakes of Cuming county.
Mr. Buchanan , who is an ardent democrat ,
had been informed b a republican friend
that lareo creels of bass wcro being taken
out of the lakes in the immediate vicinity of
the pretty , restful county seat of Cumliur ,
West Point. Hut with a suspicion born of
the party of which ho is a distinguished repre
sentative , General Buchanan was not en
thusiastic in praise of the fishing resorts of
the county and intimated tnat should wo go
it would bo nt our own risk because "repub
licans , us a rule , were not to bo regarded as
truth repositories , " which , by the way , is
another story , and the general is of the
house of the bourbons.
Armed with letters of introduction to the
fathers of the city , Fred Sonncnschoin
( "Sunshine" in the vernacular of West
Point ) and Kimbnll K Valentine , wo found a
welcome that was royal in its nature and were
treated to a day's outing among the black
bass 'of Cuming county that quito disillu
sioned any thoughts that may have como
through General Buchanan's pessimistic
views regarding our likelihood of catching
anything "except colds. "
This brief chronicle of n day's outing
would bo gravely incompletewcro not some
reference made to the valley of tlio lillihorn
traversed between Omaha and West Point ,
that fertile valley which has done so much
toward maintaining the credit of the state
for the luxuriance of its cereal growths and
thu succulence of its grasses that carpet
with a tender preen every inch of tlio coun
try that stretches to the horl/ou's rim. Fit
pi elude to the sport which was to follo\vthu
ride through the beautiful upland country of
eastern Nebraska was in itself sweet recom
pense to those city surfeited souls on listi-
lug bent to this loch Loven of our fair com
mon wealth.
Cutting , ns with .1 raprer , farms on cither
side , the Klkhorn Valley road traverses a
country that rivals anv in the west. Lim
pid streams wander lllco veins of silver
through the bosom of this fruitful land , en
riching the earth and making it bloom like a
gaidcn of Eden of those latter century days ;
sometimes winding through highly culti
vated Holds with wheat and rye well up and
the j oung corn Just turning its face skyward
to bo kissed by the summer sun ; sometimes
brimming along rich pasturage , whore the
fresh green mingle * with sweet smelling
( lowers ; sometimes venturing into villages
and hamlets and then running away into
shady retirements. This is a modest picture
of the Elkhorn valley as seen from a swiftly
moving train , a train that bore three fol
lowers of the Gentle Izuak into n new-world
of sport , just coming into recognition through
the patience of some ? ealous Nimrod casting
auout for now waters for rod ana reel.
It was early morning , Jiftor a refreshing
night's rest , with odorous breezes fanning
OMO'S cheeks , when wo drove to the Inkothat
was to give us a genuine taste ol
the real glories of a sportsman's
' life. Not much for name , but
notort for the game fish that inhabit ita
pellucid waters , MclCIratwii lake is hereby
commended to all true Nlmrods who will bo
content with a moderate creel aud enough
sport to drive out of his head in a single day
all tlio carking cares of business , making him
a hey again , recalling the well worn lines elI
I think Oliver Wendell Holmes :
Ahvliut aro" thu truasuies wo porlsh to win
Compared to tlio trout wu llrst caught with n
pin ?
It Is a long stretch of water , probably three
and a half miles In extent , quite narrow , bul
fringed with willows and low lives touching
the water's cdiro as if loathe to leave sc
: lovely a s | > ot. Hero and there lily pads nod
: to the wind ns It whispers to the trees and
the stalks of wild rlco bond gracefully witli
the rise and fall of the tiny waves as the
wind careens over the smoth surface.
Onu cannot reproduce the charm of this
early morning scene as wo made ready foi
ir our Initial cast in thu cool shadows of the
itK lake with the rare hope of having a strike
K at the first throw.
It The fleet gray couriers of morning art
is cliasing away the night's deep shadows. Ii
the east the first upshootlng of the dawi
proclaims another day's advent. Across the
iilo mirroring surface of the lake the dawn li
lee silunco falls , painting In lighter tones tin
o- deep hues of the blue-green water. The
ll10 deepening lights and fading shadows brim
10 to sight thu muny hidden beauties of tin
at scone and make one reverent in tlio nmjcstii
to presence of this manifestation of nature.
ite Down there wider the byutllng brow of ai
, old tree , behold a sight that sends the sport
y ing blooa coursing through onu's veins I Tin
in deepening , glowing blue of the eastern sk' '
now slants into the depths , bringing th'
finny tribes responsive from their haunts ti
it- seek food where nature casts It from tin
o- winds. There is a sudden commotion in ttv
oOf
Of water and a largo bass , aged , with largi
OfS knowledge of man's predatory ways , keen
eyed , dominant , resentful of trespass , dart
IIS with lightning rapidity toward 11 'shiner1
atT that had wandered too far out Into the lake
ao There is a sudden swerve and a circling swcoi
lie of tall , then silence again settles over tin
la water , broken only by the sparrow uud tli

ro .The presence of that one bass change' '
the whole current of our thoughts and sen
hearts palpitating wlthdellght , pulses dam
he ing and the whole world forgot in the at
deed ticlpatloDs 6f a day auoug the noblemen c
ed the finny nobility ,
Im And so wo "spooned" the stream with n
teas suits that wcro far beyond our wlUes
as dreams on the morning of our first visit t
, McKlrahan's take , the day's catch with ilv
rod * being upwttiU of a hundred pouudi c
the solldoU bass , big , bravo follows , everyone
ono , which had given us sport enough for a
whole peck Of days , In their landing and the
fight they made to remain In their native ,
element.
With appetites not othcrcnllrod by the
beauties and glories of the scolio wo became
the guests of a Jolly crowd of young men ,
Elwood Grover , fxionnrd Moluhow , H , H.
Miller and H. It , Iladler. who were In camp
along the lake , which thev had felicitously
named "Camp Idlowlld , " and hero
wo nto n dinner fit for a
king of sportsmen , s Not indeed ft
formal affair with courses of dainties de
signed to tempt a cloyed appotlto but n
toothsome collection of substantials , fresh
bass caught by our own hand , served hot
nnd sweetened by that most effo'etlvo of
sauces a healthy appotlto , born of outdoor
exercise , freedom from care and the uplift
ing Influence of nature. Then there was
snapper soup with corn and carrots , tomatoes
and potatoes , everything that the most ex
acting gourmet might deslro. This , Indeed ,
was living ! This was getting out of one's
self out of the ruts of monotonous routine
and restoring tone to body and mind.
And then the evening fishing , which was
a repetition of the morning's catch , filled
our baskets to the brim and rounded out a
memorable day In at least throe lives.

Trout Kighlug in Ncbrnftkn.
BIIOKBN How , Nob. I do not think It is
generally known that there Is a little a very
little good trout fishing In Nebraska , writes
C. P. Hubbard of Broken Bow , In the Forest
nnd Stream. At least , I was not nwaro of
the fact until a month ago. A business matter
called me Into the northern part of the stato.
At Alusworth , the county seat of Brown
county , on the Fremont , Elkhorn & Missouri
Valley railroad , I found myself under the
necessity of driving to Hassott , the county
scat of the adjoining county. In conversa
tion with the driver the subject of fish came
up nnd ho informed mo that at Long
Pine some very fine trout fishing
could bo had. On my expressing incredulity
that there wore any brook trout In Ne
braska , ho ndmlttcd that they might bo pike
or pickerel , ho wasn't sure , and I dismissed
the subject from my mind. However , when
wo crossed Long Pine creek the appearance
of the water and r.urroundings revived my
Interest , and when a line half-pound trout ,
nicely Hanked , was placed before my plato
at the dinner table at Long Pine , , my doubts
nil vanished , aud nothing short of a dire dis
aster could have kept mo from going back to
Long Pine that evening. At the railroad
eating house a large tank crowded with
eastern and rainbow trout confirmed both
cars and appetite , and I made hasty
preparations for a half-day's ' fishing the fol
lowing morning. I borrowed the landlord's
heavy bamboo rod , the only ono In town , but
no Hies or leaders could bo obtained. "Theso
trout , " said the landlord , "won't ' take Hies.
I've tried 'em. There are no worms hero
and wo have to use minnows' " As I was
after trout , for the sake of trout I did not
object to the rather unsportsmanlike way of
procuring them , so secured my minnows ,
drove up the stream tihout four miles and
came in after three or four hours with six
teen trout weighing six and one-half pounds.
This stream was stocked by the govern
ment some ton years ago with both rainbow
and eastern brook trout , since which time
thqfish have been thriving and multiplying.
The stream can bo waded its entire length of
twenty-five miles. Fishing goes on hero the
year around , nnd if this continues the fish
will sooner or later bo exterminated ,
especially as pike are beginning to find their
way into the stream. In spite of the land
lord's story I saw fish rising to the cedar
files and am satisfied that good sport could
bo had and fair success with the brown
hackle. Trout have beta caught hero
weighing live pounds , and it is nothing un
common to take a two or three-pounder.
Another Nebraska Criiclcnnck. |
Here is what the Chicago Inter Oceaa haste
to say about a , Nebraska trotter : Dick Til-
den , who sits behind the good horses owned
by John W. Page of Beatrice , Nob. , has kept
very quiet about a phenomenal trotter that
he has been handling , but now the pockets
of the Nebraska people are full of
good Colorado money and the
best crcen ono of the year has
been uncovered. This Is no other than
the hay gelding , Gnnzalos McGregor , nnd ho
got away from his field Wednesday iu great
shape. . The only one that could glvo him a
race was the Iowa Chief mare Li7io S , that
last week trottea in a :24J : , and as she was
known to bo able to boat 2:20 : three times it
was not surprising that the talent picked
her as a good thing. She could and did do
all that her friends claimedbut she struck a
suag in the Nebraska gelding and the best
she could do was to drive him out three re
markably fast heats. The second heat in
2:18 : > is the fastest record for a newcomer
in the list this year. That is what
Gonzales McGregor is , for ho never
started in but ono race boforc. at Colorado
rado Springs last summer , anil then ho beat
a good field in an easy kind of a way and
wont the third heat in 2:20V : . But that was
not accepted as a record , and only served to
bar him from starting iu any of the slower
classes. Tlio handicuo does not hurt him
much , under the circumstances , but men
cannot help remarking what a great picco of
goods this fellow would have been If ho
could have started In the slow classes this
year in the big circuits. Ho has recently
been purchased by his present owner , and
the breeding of his dam is not known.
Tlio Coining Itiiiniliij ; Meet.
That Omaha is at last to have a running
mooting is settled , beyond cavil or dispute.
It will bo hold at the driving park July ] , 5
and 0. The newly organized jockey club has
put in some energetic licks during the past
ten days and accomplished wonders , inas
much ns they feel Justified in guaranteeing
the public as good a running mooting as has
over been given west of Chicago. John A.
Tuthill , the hustling1 secretary of the now
club , is now in St. Louis , securing the hang
tails that nro to help fill up the splondia field
already assured. Ho will also go to Louisville
and on his return stop a day or two in Kan
sas City and St. Joe.
That the city of Omaha and surrounding
country will appreciate the work of the
thoroughbreds Is attested to amply by
the enthusiasm awakened by tlio dashes
that intorsiwrod last week's trotting
program. Nothing excites n crowd so in
tensely , or generates such a keen Interest , as
the flight of the fiery , high strung gallopers.
It doesn't require ono to the manor born to
become interested and enthusiastic over n
rattling running racu. The fever h some
thing that the coldest man on earth cannot
ward off ; everybody catches It and a tre
mendous success is predicted for tno now
organization. _

handsome llttlo volume of 100 pages , em
bodying the full card of the mooting , with
nil the nominations for the great American
Derby , Just 12.1 , and which great event
comes off on the opening elay. There is
every promise that this splendid gallop will
bo witnessed by 75,000 people , If such an
enormous crowd can obtain points of vantage
from which to view the same. Besides this
it contains All the racing and betting rules ,

other interesting and instructive , matters.

load of refreshments accompanied the cy
clists.
H. , T. McCrcdy , known to the cycling
world as the "Flying Irishman. " and the
first man to bring the pneumatic tire into
prominence as a medium of speed on the
bicycle , will soon land on American shores to
takn'nn active part In the great International
championships at Chicago.
Willie Wlndlo , tlio record maker , has
been asked to resign from the Worcester
club on account of his recent action at the
Ausonia meet , lie refused to go against
Johnson in two different races. Tlio club
felt that their colors had been lowered , and
the request for the resignation was the out
come.
Fred J. Osmond , the English champion
cyclist , prominent as the first man to go the
milo in 2:18 : , is training at the new Chicago
track , preparatory to entering the world's
championship races. The track on which
the races are to be hold has only been fin
ished" very recently and is said to equal the
famous Herno Hill track in England.
Zimmerman , the American champion , who
was so seriously hurt at Dublin. Ireland , on
the 7th inst. , is recovering rapidly from his
fearful shaking up , and will ride again
before the leaves turn. A short time before
the collision occurred which nearly cost
"Ximmy" a broken head , ho lowered the
Irish quarter-mile record ono second , riding
the distance fn 30 4-5 seconds.
The Tourists will spend the day at Ben-
nington , Nob. , today , starting from their
club house on California street about 8
o'clock. The distance is only eighteen miles
ono way and thoroads are in excellent shape.
Next Sunday occurs their first joint run
with the Ganymedo Wheel club of Council
Blurts to Blair , very likely , returning by
way of Missouri Valley and the Bluffs.
The Omaha Wheel club and invited guests
from the Turner's Wheel club nnd Gansf-
inedo Wheel club spent last Sunday at the
United States rifle range at Bellcvuo. Profs.
Sutorius and Wuhbor furnished the refresh
ments for the day , which wore very highly
appreciated. Bellevue is one of the prettiest
short runs which the wheelmen of Omaha
enjoy during the riding season , it being sit
uated about eleven miles from the metropo
lis just off the Plattsmouth road , among the
beautifully wooded lulls nnd vales along the
banks of the Missouri ; Just an ideal spot for
a day's outing. i
The Tourist Wheelmen faced the head
wind from the south for several hours last
Sunday morning and after considerable hard
pedal pushing found , themselves In
the confines of Springfield , some twenty-
six miles from their club house.
As the mudloft by the "recent terrible floods ,
was too deep they reluctantly wheeled about
and impelled by the same1 wind which had
browned their checks anjiour before bowled
merrily along back to Pnpilhou , where din
iior was ordered. Whiip waiting in the note ,
for the welcome clang of the "grub bell" the
second section arrived from the clubhouse ,
but at the sight of tho'first section's appear1
anco the members of the second section decided
cided to make Papillion their destination in
stead of Springfield. The club spent the
greater part of the afternoon in the woods
around the Papio and atparpy mills , return
ing to the city la to In the afternoon sun
burned , tanned , but well satisfied with their
their fifty-mile spin. Several now riders
wore out.
Howdo'htho llttlo racing man improve
each shining hour , in order to r educe his
weight and record. Every evening the
speedy ones maV bo seen spinning around
the Young Men's Christian association
track preparatory to the grand efforts which
they will make at Lincoln on the 4th of next
month. By the way , this year's meet
promises to bo ono of the best moots over
held in Nebraska. The Capital City Cycling
club of Lincoln , who have the affair in
charge , have secured three high grade
wheels for prizes , besides many articles of
less value which will bo hung up , Trto race
track committee is working like beavers to
complete the tracir on Which the races will
bo run by thn last of this month. The
division will have charge of the champion
ship races only nnd will hang up three
beautiful solid gold medals for pri/es. Chief
Consul Perrlgo , who has acted in the official
capacity of referee for several years , refuses
to act this year and Harry Dunning or
Charllo NIcodemus of Fremont will very
likely officiate. AsBlraio Mungor1' ICnst-
man is training tills season his smiling face
will bo seen in the pack at the scratch In
stead of among the staff of track officers.
Fremont , Omaha , Hastings , Kearney. Lex
ington , Lincoln , Plattsmouth and Grand
Island will all bo ropresedted by filers of
different speed capacitybosidcs the horde of
Jolly fellows ono always mcots on suali

SOMEBODY'S CHII/D.
Marking n Grnvo 1 > y tlio Slilo of tlio Klppllng
IMiitto.
On the north fork of the Phitto river ,
with the blue mountains of Colorado in
sight to the west , wo mudo camp ono
iiftornoon at an earlier hour than usual ,
Bays tlio Detroit Free Press. By and
by , in our knockinp around for tire
wood , one of the mon brought in a piece
of board which was rotted at ono end , as
if it had boon in the ground.
"Whar'd yo git it ? " queried Old Bill ,
who was by all odds the roughcsttough-
est and most uncouth man in the party ,
and whom no man had over heard speak
a kind word to any living thing.
"Over there , " was tlio reply , as the
man addressed pointed over his shoulder.
Some of us followed Old Bill to the
spot. There was a praviythero the
grave of a child.Vo found it only after
the dead grass and weeds of a dozen win
ters , perhaps , had boon cleared away.
The board had btood at its head once
how long ago it was placed there no ono
could say. Some emigrant train had
halted just hero , and hero some emi
grant's child had breathed its last.
They had dug a grave for it in this deso
late spot , heaped stones over the fresh
earth that the wolves might not uncover
the little form , and the grief-stricken
father had marked tlio spot as host ho
could.
No knife had touched the board. The
emigrant train would not wait for that.
\Vo looked it over and over and brushed
away the stains and the mildew , but
thcro was neither date nor name. 'Of '
what ube ? For every mile of the old
trails to the far west there is a nameless
and forgotten grave , remembered only
by God. "
"What are you going to do ? "
So we asked of the 'rough old man as
ho returned to the wagon for a shovel.
Ho made no reply , but used the shovel
to heap up the biinken grave and put
down the earth. There wore vines and
llowors growjng near. Ho transplanted
until the fresh earth was almost hidden
from sight , nnd ho carried water from
the river to give them root. After supper -
per , as wo smoked and talked , ho
brought from his tvagon a thick board
and spent his hours in cutting the epi
taph :
HEUB L.IXB BEIWIED

And before ho slept ho had the headboard -
board iu place , and as wo drove away
next morning ho lingered for half an
hour to bring more water and perhaps
to utter a prayer for the repose of the
dead. ,
In"England 130.000 velocipedes are turned
out annually. In Coventry 15,000 workmen
nro employed in the business. In Franco ,
whore tbo machine first appeared , its use
was limited through prejudice ; people
laughed at it. Now there is an army of
800,000 proprietary wheelmen in that coun

of amateurs who hire machines. In 1W3 the
Paris police , authorities issued , 3,00(1 ( licenses
