SURPRISE FOR A LOT OF KNOWING ONES

livpnli.
There w s a Rreat assemblngo of "feet
runners" nt the fair Rroundsycstcrday after
noon to witness the 100-yard sprint between
Frank Sullivan , known to his many friends
ns the ICId , and Leon lazier. The match
wn for $50 a side , pistol shot start , Shefllcld
rules , nnd attracted n vast deal of specula
tion nmonu' the followers of the path
nil over the state. ltor.\cr \ is n
turf-tried old professional , well versed
in nil the tricks of the trade ,
nnd probably ns good n llfty-ynrd man ns
there Is in thn country , Sullivan Is a mere
boy , n handsome llttlo follow , who lenrneJ
his lessons In footoloy | In nn entirely different
school than that from widen lazier grad
uated. As n consequence the provnillnp
eciitlmonl was that Leon would win , if not
by nlmhleness ot foot , by his superior goner-
nlsldp after thu men had toed the mnrk.
There wns of course plenty of Lozlor
money on hand , nnu for n time It looked ns tf
the outside bets would bo both scarce nntl
small. Hut the Kid's father wns on hand
with a roll , and finally , nfter all the pre
liminaries had been arranged to his satis
faction , ho stated Hint ho was willing to
plnco n few hundred on his son. Llko
n blnek bass ROCS nfter a grass
Irog , Leon's hackers from over the
river went niter Mr. Sullivan's cash , and In
the twinklmif of nn eye they had succeeded
in covering $ ! " > < ) nf hlshnrd-earncdslmoloons ,
nnd then they fairly cried for more. The
old gent , however , said ho would go no fur
ther ho just wanted to Rot up his "chicken
feed , " nnd it didn't mnlcu much difference
whether ho won or lost.
At1 o'clock everything was In readiness.
.lohn Clark and Frank Grcnill wcro selected
ns JudRcs nnd W. H. Copple ns roforco ,
whiln A. Downs acted as starter nnd S. G.
V. Orlswold as stakeholder.
"Alreadysot , " bang !
And the llycrs were off on as pretty n
start ns honest man could cnro to see.
It wns ear to ear up to llfty ynrds , when
the Kid hivan to perceptibly draw nwny
from the old veteran , and nt seventy-five
yards ho had n couple of feet to the peed ,
with the lowan straining every nerve , fibre
nnd muscle to save the money of his plucky
backers.
Hut it wns no RO. At eighty yards the
colt turned and throw n kiss to the old
timer nnd bounded a second latcragainst the
ropn fully ono yard and a ijunrter ahead of
„
The old mnn , the hero of 100 thrilling
chases on the track , wns beaten fairly ,
squarely and beyond dispute , and this ho
manfully acknowledged , although it was llko
drnwine an eye-tooth to do it.
The time wns 10 1-5 seconds , which was
exceedingly good considering the hardness
nnd roughness of the track.

The team of ball players with the former
nnmo of what the people's party hold
here a year ago , were thu victims of Win
Camp's pitching nt Nonpareil park yesterday
afternoon hut not so easy , cither.
Hardly half a crowd wns out to watch n
stubbornly contested game. It wns a case
of hard hitting when hits were made , no less
than four triples nnd n homer out of n total
of nine safe ones being made. The South
Knders put up a fairly pretty game , just
peed enough to land them winners by a
couple.
Lawler was hit by n pitched ball In the
first iuninc , .stole second nnd got across nu
Lacoy's low throw to catch him nnd n half
passed. Bowman opened the fuurln with a
trlplo and scored on a wild pitch. Miller
pounded out n homo run in tlio sumo inning.
Dolnn ulso got around on his biso : on balls , a
steal of second , Lawler's saerillco nnd Gate-
wood's poor throw of Crclghton's llttlo push
to short. At their next whirl at the plate
Creighton's team scored their fi/th and last
run on Oatowood's high throw of Davis'
ensy one , the latter going all around on the
error.
Thu Nonpareils commenced cporations In
the second. Lacey placed a nice single ,
going to second on Aloriarty's out from Ken
nedy to liowman , and scoring on Hrndford's
beauty of a trlplo. The latter scored on the
next ball pitched , which was too wild for
Art Creighton to touch. Davis' yellow muff
off Mahonoy's drive to center wns mninly
responsible for the run to the credit of the
Nonpareils In the third , and Morlarty's
thrce-hagper and another wild pitch accounts
for their run in the fifth. Carrigan's error ,
that studied an otherwise sure double play
with one man out , gave the ' 1'aroils three In
the sixth.
Camp , Gatowood nnd MoAulIfTo divided
equally the errors for the Nonpareils , wlulo
the Crclghtons were pretty ovcnly uis-
tributcd. Dnlan'B hnndliiiK of n scorcher
from Mahonoy's ' nub , and .lollen't hard run
in nud catch of Howmnn's high 0110 were the
best features of n very good gaiuo.

Carl Hrunor , another suspect thought to
bo the third party who wns i\t Courtland
bench on tlio night that Frank Iturdlck mot
his death , was taken in about 1 o'clock this
morning.
When occasion required , an Omaha
audience can bo ns patient ns any body of
people in the wide , wide world , and patience
wns certainly required last night at Uoyd's
theater. An audience , representative in
character , with the musical colony largely
in the lead , was present to welcome the
Mormon Tnbcrnaclo choir , but the cnolr
catno not , till 10 o'clock. On this occasion
It was not the slcknois of the prlmn
donna or the loud objection of
the tenor to some member of the company
takhif , ' the center of the stage oftcnor than
necessary that delayed the opening number
of the program , but It was the inability of a
railroad lo get the Salt Lnlni organization In
on lime. Although thu choir left Chicago
Saturday at midnight on a special train
over the Hock Island It did not arrive hero
until after ! ) o'clock last evening. A more
thoroughly disgusted lot of musicians rould
not have been found anywhere than the
members of the Taburnaolu oboir last night.
Without so much as breaking their fast for
fifteen hours , except as they might got a
sandwich along thu road , the ladles and
gentlemen went on last evening , rendnring
thu program in an exceptional manner , all
things considered ,
1'rovious to the appearance of the choir ,
F. 1C. ( iillcsplc , representing the Salt I/\ko
Tribune on the journey of thu vocal organiza
tion , told the story of what had attracted
the members out ofion and the success
that had hem mot In competition with east
ern organizations. Then , to kill time , he
described Prof. Stevens , thu director , and
how ho had ascended the ladder of success
from a section hand to the position of promi
nence lie now occupied in thu musical world
of Utah. Then catno a description of the
Tabernacle at Salt Oko in which the choir
sings and other features hardly consonant
with the occasion. And thuaudionco watted
l.n Mm nntl.
Hut the audience was amply repaid for the
long wait alter the choir had settled down
to the program of the evening. Thu opening
number , a stirring chorus by Stephens
( "Hosanna" ) , wassung with line effect , when
empty stomachs nnd milled tempers are
taken into consideration. There was a
tendency on the part of the sopranos and
basso * to flat , but Director Slovens pulled
them up before the finale was reached. A
duet , "Consolation , " by Musdames Nolllo
Uruce-Pugsley and Uessio Dean-Allison was
a line bit of work , the contralto particularly
appearing to advantage.
After hearing the male chorus of sixty
voices in "Cambria's Song of Freedom , " it
is easily understood why the chorus entered
the competition for the 1,000 prize at the
World's fair. It Is very much doubted if an
Omaha audience over hoard a male chorus to
liner advantage. Excellent In attach and
correct In tempo there was a swing and
dash about the rendition that called out well
deserved applause.
Mrs. Agnes Olsen-Thnmas , a petite bru
nette with a fine mezzo voice , pave a quaint
Norwegian ballad by Ole Hull. Mrs. Thomas
sang with rare feeling and showed a thor-
outrh musical training.
The ladies' chorus rondercd the "Mother's
Lullaby" by Stephens in a manner which
showed how thoroughly the director had
them in hand. Tlio composition is wonder
fully suggestive of Mendelssohn nnd bis
"Songs Without Words " but
, although sug
gestive thuru is no intimation of plagiarism.
Mr. H. D. Enston , thu solo tenor of the
company , sang ' 'Annie Laurie" no better
than a dozen Omaha tenors can sing it , who
nro not posing as soloists. Thu event of the
performance , however , was easily the big
chorus "Worthy is the Lamb , " bv Handel , a
composition exceedingly ditlleult , requiring
the finest measure of attach to properly
bring out the lofty beauty of the theme.
Tlio composition has never boon heard to
hotter advantage in Omaha , and thu con
sensus of opinion was that the choir de
servedly ranked among the choirs of the
world.
' Hungarian Airs , " by Krnst , was selected
by Mr..i Willard E Wciho to show his
ability as a violin soloist , but cither his se
lection was a bad onu or else Mr. Woiho
docs not possess the technique necessary to
reflect the thought of this tone pout. It was
expressionless in rendition , tlio opening bars
being played in a very amateurist manner.
And his accompanist was like unto him.
The company , after foraging upon the
hotels and restaurants of the city , loft at 1
o'clock for Denver.
"Old Olsou" nt ihn I'unmm.
"Olo Olson , " an oia time favorlto In
Omaha , is at the Faniam Street theater for
.inur nights. The engagement was opened
yesterday , crowded houses greeting both the
afternoon and evening performances. "Olu ,
Olson" is an interesting comedy with a
Swedisli dialect part as the central figure.
James T. Mi'Alpinu assumes thu role of Ole
Olson and ho does It creditably. Ho pjs-
sesscs a good voieo and his songs are well re
ceived. Hu Is assisted by a strong company
with one or two exceptions. Dully Foster as
Ooniu Dimple is all tlmt in required and in
stills a vast amount of life into the perform
ance , while Miss St. George Hussjy as Mrs.
Bridget O'Flannican assists in keeping up
the interest. Colonel Albert lluublcrappears
as Olo's big brother Olaf , when m fact ho is
a diminutive specimen of humanity , boincr
only twenty-nine inches in height.
The play itself Is a comedy of merit and
the thread of thu story is very romantic.
There are a number of oxclting climaxes
and the explosion of the powder house is u
realistic piece of stage mechanism.

SEQUEL OF A SUNDAY SEARCH
Ghostly Discovery of Two Human Hands
Floating in Out-Off Lako.
EVIDENTLY THOSE OF A WOKKlNGMAN
Dr. llotmrit nnd Companion Do Mnnio In-

l.lc * In tlio Pool of lleutli.
Yesterday two human hands were found
floating In Cut Off lake within thirty or forty
feet of the place where Fr.iuk Hurdlek's
lx > dy was recently found.
The hands were these of a man nnd uro
ijulto largo. The ghastly discovery wns
made by Dr. Holmes of 420 South Twenty-
sixth street and K. Arthur Foulks of the
American Kxpross company of St. Paul ,
who Is visiting Dr. Holmes.
The bauds nro not these of Htmlluk , the
man who is thought to have been robbed
and murdered a-wcok ago ,
Several men have been mysteriously miss
ing of Into , and among thorn wcro Iltirdlck
and "Swede Charley , " n hack driver. Hutu
were recovered dead In the waters of this
vicinity. These things have created much
talk und many people now buliovu tint If
the Inko Is thoroughly dragged other bodies
will be found.
Many rows have taken plnco on the dis
puted territory of Cut Oft Island and a few
murders have followed. There nro a num
ber of saloons In that vicinity which nro
used as n rendezvous by some of the toughest
men iu Omaha and Council Hinds. Since
Coiirtlnnd beach has been established nud
beeomo such n popular resort for the people ,
the tough element has had to keep further
awny from the lake. Not long ngo
some of the rowdic * who Infest
that locality , became so bold that
they attacked and nearly killed two police
men , who attempted to arrest them , 'loughs
nro not permitted to cntur or loiter around
the beach , and it is thought that they lay
around tlio saloons and the outside of the
fence for the purpose ot robbing .somo un
fortunate , who strays away from the beach.
Must or these loafers are known to the
police , and the oflicers say that some of
thorn would commit murder , without hesita
tion , for the purpose of robbery.
This class of moil evidently believe that
"dead men tell no talcs , " as attested by
Burdlek's generally conceded murder.
Why Dr. Holmes U'ns Intcrostinl.
A week ngo yesterday Dr. Holmes nnd
Mr. Tzschuck , accompanied by their wives ,
were rowing on the lake in the evening.
Tney distinctly heard throe long-drawn-out
screams as If some one was in mortal agony.
They thought some ono was drowning and
answered the cries. Receiving no response ,
they rowed to the plaeo near whore Ilur-
dick's body was found. They heard someone
ono splashing through the water , going
toward thu shore. They could dimly dis
cern the outlines of a man in thu darkness.
They shouted to him but received no ans
wer.
Nothing particular was thought of the
matter until Uurdicd's body was found.
Dr. Holmes and A.r. Foulks wont out to
the lake yesterday to quietly investigate
things. They rowoit to the spot where the
body was found. W.iding from the boat , Dr.
Holmes soon found footprints deeply im
pressed in the mud. Ho followed them and
the tracks led him to thu bank northwest
from the terminal of the tramway. Near
this b.ink was seen a mound of mud , prob
ably a muskrat's home , where some one had
evidently sat down. This is about the place
where they first saw the man leaving
the lake a week ago. Dr. Holmes
now thinks thatUurdiek was slugged , robbed
and carried out in the lake by this man who
sat down on this mound in the weeds and
watched the party whilu they were search
ing for the person whosu screams attracted
thuir attention. Hu began searching the
lake for the weapon which ho thought might
have been thrown into thu lako. While ho
was doing this hu discovered a white linen
handkerchief.
Ilorrltlutl at Anotltor Discovery *
Ho was about to call the attention of Mrs.
Foulks to it , when ho suw a large hand stick-
inc i partially out of the water. After de
positing the handkerchief and bund in thu
boat hu investigated further and found thu
mate : to the hand.
It was about six feet further west from
where the first ono was discovered. Ho
took the dismembered hands to the boat
house at the beach and securing a bathing
suit returned to the place where ho found
thu hands and Instituted a thorough search
to see if hu could linu the body to which the
hands 1 belonged. lie worked at tlio L'ruu-
some task until fatiguu and heat compelled
him ' to stop and ho returned to Omaha. The
doctor locked the hands un in his oftjcoand
notified thocoronurof I'ottawattamiocounty.
Iowa 1 , who will go to the beach this morning
and take charge of the ghastly find.
The hands are evidently those of a good-
sized man and tlio linger and thumb nails
ire broad , being almost square. Thu doctor
is of thu opinion that they belonged to a
aborlng man , The back of the hands were
covered by a thick growth of long , black
lair. They were like a pair of gloves.
The skin was lacerated in the palms near
the wrists , but it ii thought this was the
effect of the water. The slouching on" of the
skin is regarded as being some what unusual.
Thuory of Murder or Suloldp.
Dr. Holmes and others who assisted in the
search lire of the firm bcllnf that the body of
the man to whom the hands belonged is ly
ing in the bottom of the lake and is hold
down by something. He and others will
continue the search today snd sco if they
can solve this mystery.
They regard it as strange that the hand
should bo found BO close to whom Hurdick's
liocly was found , and the circumstance has
caused all sorts of rumors.
The theory had been advanced that this
portion of the lake is known by a gang who
lind It a convenient place to dispose of their
victims , and that the man who vras seen by
Dr. Holmes and party a week ago last night
is one of this gang. This spot Is quite a dist -
t inco from CourUand bniieh and is not con
trolled by the management of that resort.
The oltizons who live in that vicinity and
this sidu of the bench say they will ask for
hotter police protection.

Service nil QJilM C'tifttoni OMIccr.
Now that Collector Alexander's days of
ofllcial labor for Undo Sam arc drawing to
an end , it may not bo amiss to bring to light
an occasional reminiscence of his four years
of experience ) as uhiof custom ofllcer at the
Oinahn port.
It Is said , by ono who knows , that the
monotony which Is generally suppo.iod to bo
connected with federal positions Is largely
Imaginative.
About throe years ago nu Incident occurred
In connection with the work of the customs
ofllcu that resulted m some epistolary humor
that was pretty peed in its way , botweeu
Suvoyor Alexander Of Omaha air ! Major
McArthur , thu customs olllrial at Lincoln.
Mr. Alexander had been some timu in ofllco
when Mnjor McArthur was appointed , utid
as u good deal of business was being tran
sacted at the Omaha custom hnusu tlio
former was supposed to bo good authority
on those matters. Surveyor McArthur was
not only now to the business , but the ofllco
itself hnd just been created. Omaha being
nearest at hand and of an obliging disposi
tion as regards its customs ofllcials , it was
but natural that when any llttlo matter
came up through which the light was not
clearly visible Surveyor McArthur should
appeal to his Omaha eo-oniclal for Informa
tion.
It came to light In Lincoln that eggs were
being shippo.l from that burg to Canada and
McArthur conceived the men that they
should p.iss through the customs olllcur's
hands before being hauled nwny.so hu wrote
to Surveyor Aloxairler as follows :
KiKi iiro being shipped from hero to Can
ada hy the carload. Ought thuv not to co
throiiith meV Is them anything In ItVVhul
process would he ruijiilroil ?
An opportunity scumud to bo ut hand for a
little levity , and hero is Mr. Alexander's
reply :

for tlio retention of thu duty on dressed llax.
Mrs. Krncst Hart followed. She Is the
laily who , on the occasion of the. great dis-
treis In Ireland in IHS't , organized what was
known as the Donegal fund in Kngland for
thn purpmo of employing a rorp' of instruc

certain clashes of hand linen and knit work
of a lilirh duality. Shu arirucd for the removal -
moval uf the duty on these goods , with a
view to opening a markut for them In this
country.
At the conclusion of her address n repot t
of the interesting event that had just oc
curred nt the white noiiso buzzed through
the room mid served to detract somewhat
from the attention given Mr. Joseph Stewart
from Philadelphia , claiming to represent
WMHX ) workers , who nsltud that no changes
would bo ma < ti < in the duty on textile manu

Mr. 1'ltzgorald , n woolen worker , tostillcd
to the depressed condition of the woolen in

James Kdcrar , one of tlio delegation em-
tiloyed In a lace curtain manufactory , drew
a graphic and pathetic picture of distress
among llio textile workers in IMiiladelphia.
"In what you nro ahout to do , give us , thu

WASHINGTON , Sept. 10. Congratulatory
messages still arrive at tho'vhito house ex
pressing tlio felicity of the country from one
end to the other over the hanpiness which
has been brought to tlio chief executive of
the nation and his wife by the birth of an
other child. Both Airs. Cleveland and her
babe are as well as the conditions will allow
and every one at the executive mansion
wears a happy smile of contentment. Dr.
Bryant is living at the white house tor the
present , but there is no reason other than
tiis intimacy with the family , which would
make it necessary for him to do so. The day
at the white house was spent very quietly ,
thu dri//.lmg cold rain which lias poured
down all day keeping those living there in
doors , and probably detaining those who
would from curiosity have walked through-
tlio white house grounds today from doing
so.

TRAINING THIi MOTOBMEN.
IIM Kdiirntlnn Conrrnn tlio llrnkr , tlio
C'.iiitrollrr and tlio l-'inr.
1'rosidont Daniel P. Lewis of the
Hrooklyn rily railroad says In the
Brooklyn Kaglo that while there was
not a regular school for moUirmon em
ployed by the company In the sense
that they sat down to desks or studied
out the scientific principles governing
the working of the trolley railroad
*
tlu-ro was n regular system of training
through which evurynmii was put be-
fore being pormlttod to run a oar.
"The Hrst thing that a man must
kiu > wMcmtiiiuod Mr. Lewis , "is how to
handle- brake. There
could Ixno but
ter material , so far us that ipmlltv is
concerned , than a man who Is familiar
with ii horse ear and UMM ! lo handling
the brake on one of them. Those men
who are with this tvunpuny as horse car
drivers furnish us with almost the en
tire ytipply of motormen. Heing so
familiar with braking a Imrse ear , it is
only a matter of a few minutes for tlii-iii
to leurn how to bring thu heavier trol
ley cars to a standstill at the right spot.
Tim next thing about which they are
instructed is the controller. That
is the handle which they have to
turn to regulate tint electric cur
rent. They do not have to know any
more abuut tlio working of U than to
turn it one wnv turns on the current and
that turning it the other way shuts it
ell. A little practice and they know how
much power Is necessary to .send the car
at a certain pccd and how to regulate it
so us to keep from starting or stopping
the ears too suddenly. Then there is
one more thing about which they must
hi ! informed , mill l.hiiL i * tlm fnmi liny.
The fuse is a small piece of load about
three inches long , and not so thick as a
lead pencil. It has copper ends. If by
turning the controller too suddenly more
power is purmiitud to pass through the
wired than there should , this piece of
lead melts , and with the Hash which it
causes the ear will cnnm to a standstill ,
for there is no more power. The motor-
initn then has to put , in a new fuse , and
as they always carry extra ones in their
pocket and the work of adjusting it con
sists simply in dropping the copper ends
into little slots , it does not take any
great amount of ability. The use ol
the fiiho is to keep the strong current
from reaching the armature and
burning it out. As the armatures
are expensive , it is principally a
matter of economy. When an armature
burns out it also stops the running of the
car. In such a case , or when for any
ether reason the ear is disabled , all the
motormitn has to do is to get it back to
the de-pot. A motormait has to kn nv
nothing about this mechanism of the ear
and , aside from the fuse box , is not
called upon or expected tvi try and make
any repairs. If we should taky men
thoroughly familiar with thu trolley sys
tem ami its principle , men who could
take apart a motor and put it together
again , they would not make a bit liottor
inotormoii than the majority of the horse
car drivers. Wo take the drivers and
pay them while they are learning to run
the trolley cars. Wo give them two or
three lessons , of two days each , and by
that time they should be able to take a
car out alone. When learnimr an ex
perienced man gros oiu with them and
watches every movement and tells them
just what to do. There is nothing to
improve thu ability ol the motormun ,
excepting practice , and everything they
have to learn iihinart man should bo able
to do in a lesson.

of it made by Mr. Labouehoru on the
