Kansas and Nebraska will center In tlio cities of Omaha and Kansas City on Thanksgiving day. On that day In Omaha the gladiators of the grid Iron of the Universities of Nebraska and Ion a will face each other In their annual contest to do or die In their efforts to successfully uphold the colors of their rcspectlvo colleges. The Young Men's Christian Association park will bo the scene of the great outdoor society event of the year. There the students of the respective universities and their friends will vlolth each other In their efforts to make the welkin ring with their yells and shouts to encourage the doughty braves with the long flowing hair as they contest every Inch or surge forward with herculean efforts to force the plkakln behind the goal posts. At Kansas City the old rivals , Kansas university and Missouri , will meet. No game has over been played In Omaha In which there has been so much Interest taken as In the approaching cnc. The alumn of the two schools will bo on hand to live over their college days and give vent to their pent-up enthusiasm. College spirit will run rife. The tons of old Michigan will repair to the scene on a tally-ho gaily decked In yellow a"hd blue In honor of the day. The Michigan's yell goes ; "U. of M. , rah ! rah rah ! rah ! U. of M. , rah ! rah ! rah ! rah ! Hur rah ! hurrah I Michigan ! Michigan ! rah ! rah rah ! ' ' This will be heard to encourage both tlio teams , as It Is her especial prldo In having furnished the coaches , Mr. Frank Crawford Law ' 93 , now of Omaha , as coach of the Lin coins , and lloger Sherman , Lit ' 94 , as coacl of the State University of Iowa team. Scattered promiscuously throughout the crowd will be seen the colors of old Yale and her Inveterate rival , Princeton , each of whlcl has prominent alumni In Omaha and Councl Bluff a. Crimson and white , the colors of Ne braska , will predominate , but Iowa will alsi be well represented by a throng of admirer : wearing the- old gold ribbon. The Omaha Guards , who are always Infer eated In gentlemanly sports , wlll ( uccompanlei by their lady friends , witness the game from taliy-hoes. The people of Lincoln have made arrange menu for a special train on the I ) . & M. an > If the day IB at all pleasant the Nebrask team will not lack for heelers. The relative standing cf the teams adds mor than the usual amount of Interest to the con tests In both cities. Iowa won from Kansas but was beaten by Missouri'Nebraska ; lost t Missouri and won from Kansas. Thus I stands that Missouri has \\on two , Nebrask one , and Kansas no games. Uut Kansas ! pretty apt to beat Missouri and Nebrask stands a good chance to win from Iowa , an then Nebraska and Missouri would be tied The constitution of the association says tha In cue of a tie that the number of point ccored against , a team shall decide which I the winner of the pennant. Nebraska ha had twenty-four points scored against lie and Missouri twenty , and thus the pennan depends entirely on the outcome of th Thanksgiving day games at Omaha and Kan us City.

Coppla Heats tlio Champion. LOS ANGELES , Cal. , Nov. 15. To the Sporting Editor of The Ileo : Tor the benefit of W. II , Copplo's Nebraska friends , for I understand he comes from Bancroft , your state , I want to tell you about his great victory over Tom Morris , champion sprinter of the world , hero yesterday. They met at Agricultural park In a 100-yard "feet" race for $1,000 a side. Morris , as you Know comes from Santa Ana , and has been recog nized as the best man on the cinder path ot either hemisphere * for the past two years Copplo is entirely "now" on the slope , and If really from. Nebraska , you can lay claim to a bo n a tide wonder. For a wonder , the race was evidently on the level. Copplo Eccmcd well supplied with the long greet and covered everything In sight. Who his backers were has not yet developed , but ba that as U may they arc rated as "cafe' people out tills way now , John C. Cllno ofllclated as starter , am Thomas Uarmody and Ed Ityan as Judges A beautiful start was secured and the met broke away simultaneously. Neck and necl they ( lew down the path , Morris an Inch or two In the lead. Just at the tape line Copplo made a tremendous spurt and his chest breasted the tape Just as Morris * dies came up on the line. Not three Inches o space separated the men. The referei claimed a dead heat , but the judges awarde < the race and money to Copple. The time 9 4.5 second ! ) , equals the world's record Morris claimed his defeat was owing lo a lack of condition and has backed himself to run Copp'o another rac , same , conditions next Saturday. Instead of running for $1,000 however , they will put up but $250 each Will let you hear about It. Yours truly , TOM O. MEIUIELL. Mho ( let * St. Paul ? The Western association and Western league ot base ball clubs have both held thel annual fall meetings and both have admltttc St. Paul within their ranks. The Westert association , however , was the first to act It this matter and by the rights of priority , I there are any such rights. Is entitled to th disputed city as a member of Its clrcull The Western association will cut bu little Ice with the Western league and wll lw brushed avldo like a gnat In the way ot a elephant's tall. John T , Ilrush owns th Cincinnati National league club , holds stoc In the New York Nation * ! league c'.ub , own the Indianapolis Western league and doubt less will own the St. Paul Western leagu club , and , ot course , whatever he says I regard to the rights of establishing a mlno league club In St. Paul or any other city oes , and the Western association might as veil begin to figure now on supplying St. 'aul's place as later on. Ilnish has Jomlskey to take care of and this he Intends o do by putting : htm In charge of the. St. 'aul club , the franchise- for which has al- ecdy been granted In his name. Cincinnati s sour on Commy , and , as his playing days re over , the maragemcnt of a minor league lub Is his dernier resort. As to the protection minor organizations arc supposed to receive at the hands ot the xjwerful National league , at so much a pro- ect , the least said the better. When It suits ho ends ot the older body to protect the nlnors , they are protected , and that Is all here Is In It. Appeals to President Nick Young will amount to nothing. He has grown Ich and arrogant by reason of his lifelong xnltlon with the National league , and will ake no steps In the Interests of any minor association that does not conform strictly with ho welfare of the older body. Therefore the Western association may as well surrender all tope of putting a club In at St. Paul this or any other season. The maltreatment of Sioux City , a pirty to the so-called national ngree- nent , by the Western and National leagues should be amply sufficient to convince the nagnates of the struggling Western assocla Ion that they are not even a secondary con sideration In the affairs of the great national game , and the quicker they reach this con vlctlon the better It will be for them. The loss of St. Paul , however , should not be allowed to materially affect .lie prospects of the Western association. The advisability of a ten club circuit Is questionable. Eight cities make a better circuit in Innumerable ways , and considering .lie financial backing of the Western , and the very Inferior ability of a portion of the gen eral management , It behooves them to bo cautious about enlarging their responsibilities [ f a place can bo made for Sioux City with out seriously disturbing the harmonious re lations existing between the clubs of the original circuit , It should be done without dela > The Corn Palace town would cer tainly be an accession 'on ' the economical basis which governed the Western associa tion last season. If St. Joe Is In arrears , drop her , and give Sioux City the franchise , and all will be plain sailing for at leasl another jear , that Is , It the condition ot thlnc-j In the other cities Is what the publlo has been led to believe they are. Hie llattlo of MID I'nprrf. The battle of the paste boards still waxes meirlly along In the cosy apartments of the Omaha Whist club. As the end draws near the situation grows more Interesting and ex citing , and It will be quite a difficult feat to numo the four lucky Individuals who will go to Sioux City In January to compete In the national tournament. As the contest stands now there Is a likelihood that several ties wH have to bo decided by a series of extra games. The standing : Played. Won.

There may osslbly bo some little sport obtainable yet Ithln the next fortnight with straggling eeso and belated mallards , but so far as nythlng like a regular fight Is concerned ho gunner might as well shelve his. 1mm- merl > 8 until the stormy days of March roll onnd. A hasty levlew of the fall shooting s sufficient to t.liow that It has been about as wor and unsatisfactory with regard to this oyal gam ? as It has been for a long number f years. The torrid summer , with Its long routh , did the work more effectually than he most experienced hunter anticipated. On lone of the famous feeding grounds was there ufficlent water left by October to answer the purpose of the birds for cither refreshment or 'cst. and as a consequence but a modicum if the usual flight came this way , and the ew that did lingered but briefly before vvlng- ng their way on to more favorable haunts arther south. The teal shooting In Septem- icr was moderately good In some localities , > ut that \\as about all. When It came to xinvasback , mallard , redhead and the larger > lrds , the sport was meager everywhere. Snlpo and yellowleg , too , were extraordl- larlly scarce , and the hunter that met with single day's good shooting this fall was a ucky Individual Indeed. Chicken shooting , also , was a scare quantity , notwithstanding he breeding season was extremely favorable. The continued hot weather kilted off all In sect feed , and the birds loft this country by ho wholesale , many In the midst of the resting time. Within the past month , how- ver. In many localities the birds have re urned in largo numbers , demonstrating that hey were- not all destroyed by a long vvajs. The quail shooting has been and continues to )8 cxcsllent , and In th a line tport the local miner has found his only solace. Some flno catches of bass have been made within the past ten days at both Manawa ind Cut-Off lakes. The fish have evinced a most voracious appetite , despite the cold , and one or two days last week bit with all the avidity of the Juno run The live bird championship of America did not end as the great combination of cham pions had figured. They counted that It was sure thing that either Carver , Brewer or Elliott would win , but they were fooled In George Klcinmann. Ho sliotUliem out In the easiest kind of a race , and should bo ac credited with the honors of the championship until defeated by one o them. Lately Mr. Klelnmann has been devoting his attention to duck shooting In the flats , and has been scoring birds In the woiat kind ot blizzards , and when he went after he.plgeons at Wat son's park ho knew how to brace hlmseli against the wind. E. S. Dundy , Jr. , nnd M. L.

To the Sporting Editor f The. Bee : Nebraska homes many a sports- nan who delights In the pages of the various curnals devoted to field sports and the re- rlews of field trials always receive extra , at- entlon. Many expressions have been made relative o the possibility of holding trials In this ectlon , but no one seems to have the energy o start the ball rolling. That the trials an bo held In Nebraska successfully , at east from a local standpoint , Is a csrtalnty , nd the opinion Is endorsed by some of our nest level-headed sportsmen of this vicinity. Vhy not start a Field Trial club and have " " December for local ho Initial "go" early In ompstltlon only ? Suppose you publish this ommunlcatlon In next Sunday's Issue , with he request that every sportsman Interested vrlte you his willingness to co-operato and help the formation of a Field Trial lub ? Feel certain the Commercial club will permit he use of one of their rooms for a , mooting. The dues need not bo heavy and the trials \lll develop a rivalry among our sports men that cannot but be of advantage to our our-footed friends. Let every sportsmen Interested reply to ou Immediately , stating his willingness to attend a meeting for purpose aforesaid , so hat notices may bo sent accordingly. Those portsmen out of the city who cannot nt- end might write their views with the Idea of having letters read at first meeting , rhoro are several sportsmen who will sub scribe liberally for privilege of attending the trials , even though thsy have not dogs of heir own to run. Gentlemen , owners and lovers of the sct- er and pointer In Nebraska , will you co operate with this effort to establish a Thld Trial club In Nebraska ? If you will , drop a card to the sporting editor of The Uee with your name and address for notice of neetlng to bo held Imtn'dlatcly. Overlooked this. Believe It too late to hold trials In 1S9 , but think It time to act for ' 95 ; would be glad , If not too late , o co-opcrato In any reasonable enterprise. W. P.

President D. E. Rowe of the Western asso elation has made application for membership In national agreement society , and has re celved word from President Nick Young tha his application haa been placed on file. Tom Glttlnger. a Western league graduate has been signed by Manager Jack McClosky o the Louisville National league team. Th question who threw McCloskoy will conue quently be a secret but a short while longer. The Western association Is In the "turn Ing down" business Itself. That enug llttl organization haa drawn a rigid dead lln against ball players ot the lushing variety and the action taken at the meeting In black listing a couple ot dozen ot last season's play era Is Indicative of that policy. Clnclnnat Times-Star. Jack Crooks devotes his time to playln the races over In St. Louis under th ; uldance of his friend and patron , Fred Fos- cr.

Five more Loulsvllllans are booked to go [ anager McCloskey Ins decided to trade Lake , Gilbert , Cote , Lutenburg and NIcol. He does ot consider them swift enough for his team's ompany. If no exchange can be perfected hey will be released In ample time to obtain ngagements for next season. Cincinnati 'Imes-Star. I met Jim E. Manning , manager of the Cansas Cltys , In Chicago the ottfer day and 10 expressed much regret that there was no hanco to Inveigle Omaha Into the Western eague. He further remarked that lie was orced to take a stand against Sioux City and would cast his vote for St. Paul's admission , vhlch ho did. St. Louis seems to bo a winter haven for ho ball players. Among these wintering here , says Ren Mulford , are Arthur Clark- on , Henry Pcltz and Theodore Breltenstcln of the Browns ; Manager and Cuptnln Oliver Tcbeau and Catcher Jack O'Connor of the Clevelands ; Captain Billy Joyce and Out fielder Billy Haisamacr of the Washlngtons , and First Baseman Perry Werden and Second end Biscman Jack Crooks of the Minneapolis Western League club. Omaha was never a mrbor for the boys of the diamond , and his winter George McVey seems to be about he only well Known man In sight. According to Harry Wcldon. Rug Holllday s one of the spenders of the business. It Is rare Indeed that Bug ever comes down to the finish with anything to his credit Usually 10 Is drawn ahead of the club , with his fine diamond stud and ring hung up with a kind uncle In an accommodating pawnshop. This Imo N. Ashley Lloyd stele a march on the spendthrift , and made him save whether ho would or not. N Ashley "held out" $300 of Us salary , and Bug has that little nest egg lo bridge him over the off season. Ho U glad of It , but all the same ho U yearning 'or ' that trip to Cuba. Bug will go If his massage Is only paid one way , even if ho has 0 take a chance of swimming back from that 'ar off Island. Western League players will be badly dis appointed If Frank Genlns ot last year's Sioux City team don't create a tremendous sensa tion In the league next ) ear , writes Harry Weldan of the Cincinnati Inquirer. Genlns has been signed by the Plttsburgs , and every Western league p'ayer you meet fairly slops over In his praise of his ability , Genlna U no spring chicken. Ho Is not a joung blood In any sense of the word. Ho has been playIng - Ing professional ball seven or eight years , He has been a long time getting to his speed 1 confess that I am a little skeptical about these late comers. I have yet to ? < ! one who has been trailing along In a slow class foi years without making much of an Impres slon suddenly catch his "second wind" am set the base ball world ablaze with his phe nomcnal playing. I get a line on Genlns from the fact that I saw him play three months In fast company without even holding up his end. It has since been urged In hi behalf that he was sick during his engage ment with the Reds. Perhaps he was. will give him the benefit of a doubt. I hop for Pittsburgh cake the old saw about "a stake horse among selling platers , but a celling plater among stake horses" w 111 not b verified In this Instance , There Is a class In base ball juet aa there Is In racing.
