for the weather and the card. Everybody
sweltered In both the stands and In tnc

the critical period. The others were beaten
off. Clifford declined thu Issue with Stone-

Vigilant und Vnlkyrlo Will Meet on the
Clyclo Connie on July 0.
GLASGOW , June 23. It has been defl-
Itely settled that the Vigilant nnd Valky
rie will , engage In their first contest on the
Clyde on July 5 , as neither yacht will be
ready In time to race 'at an earlier date.
The Vigilant , Valkyrie , Britannia and
Sutlnita have been entered for the Roynl
Ulster Yacht club regatta , which will be
sailed on Belfast lough July 1C and 17. The
schooner yacht Lascn , owned by John E.
Brooks of New York , has been entered for
the crnlaer race In this regatta.
The Vigilant. Vnlkyrlo and Britannia will
probably enter the Itoyal Cork Yacht club
regatta on July 21.
The match race between the Britannia
and the Vigilant , which , us already cabled ,
has been arranged to take place ut Cowes
during the race week In the early part
of AugtiHt anil will be sailed over thu Royal
Yacht squadron course.
In regard to the complaints made by
American newspapers at the alleged re
fusal of the Hoyal Victoria Yacht club
to allow the Vigilant to sail for the gold
cup , the Field today points out that neither
a challenge nor an Intlmntlon from the
Goulds bus been received by that chili , so
It Is not likely that the Vlgllant's entry
has been rejected. The Field adds that It
Is safe to Infer that the Victoria Yacht club
will not stand In the way of sport should
the Vigilant challenge for the gold cup.

This Is the tlmo of the universal Idyl , and
'esterday was ono of June's rarest days.
Every swain piped merrily to his flocks and
very nymph crowned with wild ilowe'rs
ancod and sang In harmony with the stun
ner breezes. All over the country lusty
outh were riding , rowing , bathing , swlm-
nfhg nnd jumping. Wherever there were
Ilia the young men and maidens were climb-
ng them. Wherever there were lawns they
were playing tennis and croquet. Wherever
hero was a fleld they were playing base ball
ir cricket. In a word , the world was holl-
lay-maklng , everywhere was thcro sunshine ,
illarlty nnd happiness , everywhere , save
Ight hero In Omaha.
The Rourkes were everlastingly flabber
gasted by Rock Island ,
It was a listless. Inert sort of a struggle
until the opening of the eighth Inning , when
Dame Fortune wreathed lior kindly face In
in 11 c-3 and beckoned to the Kourko family to
coino on and get In the game. It boots note
o tell how the rolling mill hands from tha
ar sldo of the majestic Mississippi had
: anncd eleven runs and the Rourkes just half
as many. It boots not a single rubber over-
boo to narrate how the big puddlors had
ammed their clubs up against Sammy Me-
ifackln's most Intricate curves , nor how the
Rotirkcs wasted their bone and slnow on the
mpty nlr.
Hans Schickor was an unfathomable con
undrum to them.
HE WAS NOT HORN TO DIB.
Hans Is a square-shouldered Italian , with
about as much expression In his face aa
hero Is In a C-cont loaf of bread. Harry
Sago discovered him peddling hot tomalcs
n Mollne , and this was his first appearance
n America. Mr. Sago wanted hlm-to change
ils name to Herbert Montgomery or Alger-
lon Hcathcote , but Hans stuck to Schlcker.
flo said ho came over here In the steerage aa
ilans Schlcker , and that was good enough
'or him.
And Hans waa right. He knew there was
a subtle something that makes the cheapest
welnerwurst vendor In the land not only
the peer but the superior of the best old-
tlmo ball player who over ate a fly or made
a muff , and ho set about to show Mr. Sago
that ho had that subtle- something Up his
sleeve. At no stage of the game could the
brawny Oniahans touch him , save occasion
ally with their finger tips ; not oven In the
eighth Inning , when he went off Into a
Dutch trance , could they careaa him with
anything like their wonted vim. Hereafter ,
whenever ono of them hears of any especial
wonders being perpetrated on the diamond
there will be photographed upon the lenses
of their mentality a name not born to die.
Hans Schlcker.
A fair assumption warrants the belief that
there are G5,000POO people In the United
States between Maine and Texas , Cape Cod
and the Paclflq tslopebutI ! am willing to
wager a lumber yard againsta wooden tooth
pick , that In all that number there ! isnt ; a
single , solitary ono half as happy this morn
ing aa Hans Schlcker. He la happy to know *
that he wasn't killed In that elghtlflnnlng
t havo'already ' alluded to.
Lot me tell you about It.
WHERE WE ALMOST WON IT.
When Hans took his position In the box
at the opening of this memorable Inning
there were large welts , llko links of bologna ,
noticed under his eyes , his oars were droopIng -
Ing and ho looked hopeless and careworn.
The secret was that Hana was tired , nnd
when he let go of the ball it wobbled through
the atmosphere big ns a watermelon. The
Hourkes rolled up their hands arid spit on
their sleeves and made vicious Jabs at it ,
but couldn't connect. Hans refused to put
It near enough. The result was he gave
Munyun , Rourke , Pedroes and Boyle their
base in succession , and the crowd swung
their lungs over their heads and filled the
neighborhood with wild acclaim !
To nit appearances the rolling mill handa
were about to be routed. It looked as If the
rout would bo disorderly and that the park
would bo spattered with gore. Amidst a
storming of cheers and yells Munyun shot hla
big toe deep Into the homo plate. The bags
were yet full , nil Christmas'presents from
Hans , and still ho continued to float 'em over
big as prlzo pumpkins.
Sammy McMackln is at the bat. He bonds
back. His face bears that awful look of
anxiety that comes to a man with a boll In
a crowded motor car. With a low , gurgling
cry ho lunges forward. Ho has swooped
upon one of Hans' watermelons and hurled
It safely Into the fleld. Papa and High Flvo
applied their feet rapidly to the surface of
the earth and pushed themselves hurriedly
around over the plate. Seory then stealthily
approached the plate , with a burning deslro
In his heart to slap the daylights out of Hans.
Hut It wasn't the old man's turn. CantHUon
tired him out at first. Hans here tied an
other base up In yellow paper and handed It
to Hilly Bill Moron. Then Captain McVcy
seized a log and ran savagely to the plato.
Ho whaled the hoghldc over the fence and
Sammy , getting a Immmerlock on himself ,
throw his lissom form across the pan , while
Hilly Hill lingered nt third. Had ho not
slipped on his collarbone he , too , would have
scored. But that waa nil , Kid Fear swelled
up like a man who had been eating dried
opploa. He struck , but not as emphatically
03 ho should. Hans got the ball und dragged
It across to first , and after nil that hulla
baloo wo sacked but four racasly runs , within
two of making It n tie.
The visitors were quickly smothered , nnd
Jack Munyun posed at the plato for the last
whack. Ho looked desperate. Everything
was so still you could have heard a pin ilror
a rolling pin. liana let the ball go and
Jack stepped up to meet It , Ho burled his
club In Its Intestines nnd then got away. Man
never run faster , nor ball either. It wenl
over Kennedy's mansion , but before It 111
Jack was homo. His bat was still flopping
around on the ground where ho had hurled It
and two boys were called In from the bleach
ers to hold It down. It was such a mighty
hit.
hit.Ono
Ono moro run and the score would bo tied.
But It never camo. Neither Papa nor Podroei
could get In the aamo rounty with Hans
Boylo. however , accepted his second gift
then Sammy tungoed a llttlo one over to Mr
Mountain , and the battle was over ,

iVfler two weeks ot dilly-dallying with tlio
\\oathcr , getting In perhaps two games on
OIIQ nlglit nnd tliroe on another , the city lawn
lentils tonrtiainont of the Oinnlm club la now
n an almost Inextricable tangle. Tlio singles
Is nrobalily the most Important event of the
throe , and It Is a matter of considerable
doubt whether the dim I round has already
lieon finished or whether Indcod both the
tics In the Bcml-fltml nro yet to come oft.
Yesterday was to have been the very finest
day of the whole meeting from the specta
tor's point of view. There were Just lots of
contests down for decision that promised to
bo not only exciting , but really first class
exhibitions of the game. So far among the
thirty odd matches that had been played
thcro was hardly a single ono that could bo
pointed to with pride as showing what Omaha
could put up In the way ot a lawn tennis
game. There had been evidence In abund
ance that there was plenty of talent In the
town ; but when the competitors got together
they did not seem to come up to expecta
tions. In the doubles the two partners were
running over each other's courts all the
time and neither ono would play n consistent
game for five minutes together ; In the
singles the balls wore hit loosely and without
out- any sign of forethought us to what waste
to bo done with them.
Hut the second Saturday was to be a
great day. Hath the singles and the dou
bles had been brought down to the finishing
round.s , nnd no ono was left In but those
who had by ttielr victories earned the right
to be considered na among the cracks. For
this reason It was confidently expected that
every game would give evidence ot Ilr t-
clos.H workmanship and thnt tennis would
really bo shown up In , Its true colors an u
fine nrt among sports. Both the semifinals
als nnd the llmil In the 'doublet ) and one
of the semi-finals and the final In the
singles were down for decision , und there
was every reason to believe that every
one of the matches would be at least as
good us the best c- those which had been
seen during the week.
Now It Is a matter of considerable
doubt even to aay what was played
yesterday and what wasn't. This
much can bo suld , however , that
the best tennis or the tournament , up
to date , was seen yesterday afternoon In
the double , In which Koye and Murray ,
the vanquishers of Culllnglmm nnd Cooksoti ,
went down to Haverstlck and Colpt-Uer. The
match was short , but while It lasted there
was some hoi playing. There were errors ,
plenty of them , but there were several
really excellent rallies , ending up just as
they should have done the first time there
was an opportunity to kill the ball. Not
only that , but on each side of the court
the partners kept well together thuy
played Into each other's bands , and backed
each other up well wherever the occasion
demanded. Occasionally the two would be
found on the top of each other , but It was
seldom that this happened without justifi
cation , and It was very seldom thnt the
justification was not proved by the win
ning of the rest. Colpetzer throughout
was remarkably cool , and It was perhaps
due more to him than to any of the other
three that the contest ended as It did.
Probably on paper the chances were even
between the two pairs , although , judging
from the manner In which Koye and Mur
ray had played against Culllngham and
Cooksoti , they would have been considered
the stronger by any handlcapper. Haver-
stick placed his net balls with more than
usual dexterity , but did not play so con
sistent a game as his partner. He prob
ably killed more balls , but he also lost
more by fooling them. On the other side.
Foye was also a little erratic at times , and
Murray tlld not seem to haveHO many
chances to- get In his work as In the first
round match.
TOUNa AND AUSTIN DEATEN.
The other semi-final of the doubles was
played in the early morning. It was begun
about G o'clock , and perhaps this may ac
count In some measure for what can , In
full justice to all concerned , be called an
unexpected result. C. H. Young and Austin
had been very generally picked out as the
winners of the event , even from the very
etart , In spite of the fact that they were
placed 15 behind scratch. Anyway. It was
thought that they would get Into the final ,
and the only other pair that was men
tioned as being1 able to overthrow them was
Culllngham und Cookson. who also owe
15. Culllnghum and Cookson having been
knocked out In the first round by Foye nnd
Murray was supposed therefore to give
Young and Austin a practical walkover.
True , they also had a very tough light
for It In the first round against the Gard
ner brothers , but then they had got through
and no ono had noticed how narrowly they
had. escaped. Yesterday morning , however ,
they met their fate at the hands of II.
Young and I'lerson. It was close through
out , and , as the score shows , there was
only one game between the two contesting
pairs when they had finished. The llr.st set
went to Young and Austin easily , and this
seemed to give them confidence , but if It
did It must have given them a little too
much of it , because after losing the second
they got a good lead In the deciding set
andi then let It slip away from them after
the score had been up to six-all.
In life evening Austin and \V. Gardner
started In to play what purported to be thu
final of the singles , but whether It was
or not remains to be seen. Anyway , they
had played three sets and were In the mid
dle of the fourth when the rain came up
and stopped them for the night. Austin
had captured two of the three , but was
a game behind In thp fourth net when the
adjournment -was taken. It had been a
well fought cussle as far as It had gone.
and there Is llttlu doubt that Outdoor. al
though he was losing and would probably
have left oft second best If the light had
concluded , gave ovldence , as he had done
all through the week , of a constderabl.-
mast."ry of the game. Ho hits every ball
asIf he meant It to do something , and
watches himself closely all the time to be
sure not to fool anything that he ought to
score off.
MAY ALL ni5 FOH NOTHING.
But these three and a half sets will very
likely have * to go for naught. It will bo re
membered that Gardner had never finished
his semi-final with Cullltiglmm. Several
days had boon fixed for the conclusion of
this contest , but every time rain had Interfered -
terfered On Friday night Cu llnglium win
on the ground ready to play , but his oppo
nent was not there , and on this ground.
It Is said , he Is liable to be scratched. It
Is also claimed that the committee had
scheduled this match for Saturday after
noon and that therefore Gardner wn not
expected to be there for plav on I1 rlday.
Culllngham. on the other hand , was suffer
ing from a sprained hand anil was unable
to piny yesterday. On Friday he had been
prepared to play and was ready to lose If
ho could not win. In spite of his hand.
Then , as a third horn to the dllmnmn. Aus
tin had been away all the week , nnd only
oamn back Friday , and can therefore
hardly claim that the other two or elthiT
nf them should bo compelled to retire In
his favor , that la , oven If he shot ; Id. wish
It to be so. Then- are other complications
that enter Into the cfise , and when the
committee moots to pass upon the matter
they will have a very complex question to
determine. It would almost neem that the
only thing that they can do that would lie
strfotlv fair to all three parties would b
to order both semi-finals and the final
played over. Yesterday's scores were :

Captain Marshall' * twelve good men nnd

results of thulr trip nnd moro than satisfied
with the magnitude ? of their Uotory ov r Ihe
local crlcki't eleven. It would seem thnt
n threshing by 320 runs to 81 wns a lltllo
moro severe than It wns necessary for the
visitors to Inflict upon a club Mint wns , to
say the least , of so much smaller reputation
and representing n city of so much smuller
H population. But they niiologlzu for this
by saying that they had been led to under
stand thnt the Kenrneylto * were going to
show up renl strong , and that In any cast-
It wns bad policy to "monkey with the buzz
The Omnhn boys were royally treated by
their hosts nnd had n right good time.
The favors will nil bo returned In Septem
ber , when. It has been arranged , n return
match will be played here In nmnha. Mean
time the Omaha club 1ms a bigger job on
Its hands. A challenge wns sent some
Unto ago to the Chicago Alblons , nnd n
match was arranged for the Fourth of July.
There Is little reason to expect that the
Omnh.is will return from the windy city
with the same'record thnt they did from
the Midway city of Nebraska , but they
nro expecting to be nblo to put up a good
gnme ngnlnst the World's fair cricketers.
There are H * > v ral other clubs In Chicago
besides the Alblons , but the Alblons stand
well among them , although It Is probable
that either the Pullmans or the St. aeurgri
could beat them , other things being fuuul.
It WHH the enthusiasm of the people * of
the Hub city , even more , perhaps , thun
the magnitude of their victory und the liberal -
oral manner In which they were entertained
that nttrneted the delight of the Omuha
men , ami this feeling was probably Inten.sl-
Hud by the recollection of the fuel thnt
hero In Omaha the matches of the local
club are seldom attended by more than one
or two representatives of the general public.
The mutch was watched by a huge con
course of spectntors , many of whom wit
nessed n game of cricket for the llrst time ,
and In mntiy Instances compared It with
our nutlomil game of base ball. Throughout
the mutch , und moro particularly In the sec-
oivl Innings of the Omaha team , they were
gUVni n sample of powerful nnd rapid hit
ting , strong defense nnd clean cut , all
'rouXd batting , such as probably bus not
been witnessed In recent years outside of
Philadelphia. So much were the spectators
onthmied with the beauty ami science o (
the fil'.mc that two hours after the finish
a junior club had been organized which
gives promise of developing Into u strong
team.
The Kearney team , winning the toss , sent
th"S Omuhus to the bat , icpresented by J.
S , Doylu nnd A. D. Robb , to the bowling of
r. O. F. Short and Rev. S. A. Potter ,
After Doyle had scored one run Robb wns
cleverly caught by Phillips off Shaft's bowl
ing. R. W. Taylor followed on nnd com
menced his usual froa hitting , until Lawrle ,
uftor scoring eleven , wus cnuKlit by Dendy
oft McPhcrson's bowling. O. H. Wilson fol
lowed , but failed to materially alter the
score , nnd nfter adding three runs to the
totul was caught by Scott off a brilliant
drive , much to the Joy of Kearney und the
sorrow ot Omaha. F. A. Kemp failed to
score. Ho held up his wicket until ho had
made u happy-go-lucky twenty-nine , and
then was caught by Dendy off Potter's
bowling. Altogether the visitors had put
up ninety-live runs by the tlmo they were
all dismissed. The lidding of the Kearney
team was on the whole very good , with
ono or two errors , The bowling of Rev.
Potter was especially strong and hard to
hit , while that of Shoff , McPherson and
Phillips was good.
When the Kearney team went to bat ,
represented llrst by Dr. Bhoff nnd F. Phil
lips , several wickets fell before any scoring
was done. It waa not until Rev. 8. A. Pot
ter wielded the willow thnt the score com
menced to rise. Mr. Potter played a very
careful game of twenty-one , showing free
lilttlng and powerful defense , before he was
Ilnally caught by Wilson. The three runs
each by McPherson and Buchanan nnd
eight not out by J. Scott were the only
other scorers. Scott's game wua carefully
played und deserves special mention. The
bowling of Doyle throughout was good ,
while thnt of Robb after the llrst two overs
went to pieces nnd he waa replaced by
Marshall , who trundled the ball to the
tune of four wickets for four-runs.
The second Innings of Omaha wus a dis
play of remarkable butting , every member
of the team scoring substantially. Wilson's
llfty , which Included one Jive , two fours
and seven threes , was an exhibition of freo.
all 'round cricket and hard driving. He has
the credit of scoring the llrst half century
In the annals of the Omaha Cricket club ,
sustaining his reputation ns the demon
slugger of the west. H. Lawrle's ten
showed careful batting and helped materi
ally to take the edge oft the strong bowlIng -
Ing of Potter and Phillips. Taylor's forty-
three Included one four and four threes , nnd
Doyle's forty-seven one live , ono four and
three threes. Both of these men showed
line form and powerful hitting. F. A.
Kemp's twenty-six Included one four tuid
one three , nnd the way ho handled the wil
low reminded one of Hornby In his
palmiest days. His InnlncH only closed
\\hcn It dirt through a piece of extraordinary
luck in throwing up the ball. A. Gavin's
fifteen not out included two fours , nnd was
put up in his UBiial rnpld style nnd old
form. The Innings ultimately closed will :
225 runs , the highest score on record In thi >
western country. Mr. Phillips' bowling de
serves npeclnl mention , while the fielding of
McPherson nt the wickets nnd Rev. Potter
nnd J. Scott were the features of the Kear
ney team.
Against a deficiency of 271 runs the Kear
ney team sturted Its second Innings. Onlv
Dr. Cameron nnd W. F. Dondy succeeded
In nccompllshlng much of anything ngulnst
the strong bowling of Mnrshnll. Doyle nnd
Lawrle. Marshall's seven wickets for IWPII-
ty-one runs nnd Luwrle's two wickets tut
two runs showed the remarkable strength
ot the Omnhn battery. The fielding of the
Omuhns In the second Innings WUK u sur
prise to the spectators nnd the Kearney
team , Inasmuch ns no error was made und
every chunco taken advantage of
It Is but fair to say of the Kearney team
that , although the players were good nil
nround cricketers , they were largely handi
capped In the showing they made Saturday
from the fact that they huve hud very
little opportunity to get together for prac
tice , and have thus been unnble to become
siifllclently ncriunlnted with euch other's
play. The Omaha club , on the other hand ,
lind got together a strongly representative

" Disfigured
For Life"
Is the despairing cry of thousands
afflicted with
Unsightly skin diseases.
Do you realize what this disfigura
tion means to sensitive4 souls ? '
It means isolation , seclusion.
It is a bar to social and business success.
Do you wonder that despair seizes
upon these sufferers when
Doctors fail ,
Standard remedies fail ,
And nostrums prove worse than use
less ?
Skin diseases are most obstinate to
cure or even relieve.
It is an easy matter to claim tp cure
( hem , but quite another thing to
do so.
CUTICURA REMEDIES
Have earned the right to be called
SKin Specifics ,
Because for years they have met
with most remarkable success.
There are cases that they cannot cure ,
but they are fsw indeed.
It is expensive
no long-drawn-out ,
experiment.
25c. invested in a cake of
CUTICURA SOAP
Will prove more convincing than
a page of advertisement.
In short
CUTICURA works wonders ,
And its cures are simply marvellous.
