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.

The wild fowl shooting for this region Is
Irtually over for the year 1894. 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

miner has found his only solace.
Some flno catches of bass have been made

OMAHA , Nov. 22. 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.

organization haa drawn a rigid dead lln

According to Harry Wcldon. Rug Holllday

rare Indeed that Bug ever comes down to the
finish with anything to his credit Usually

diamond stud and ring hung up with a kind

Western League players will be badly dis
appointed If Frank Genlns ot last year's Sioux

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. Mot
couldn't do anything In fdst company , but u
can play grand ball In the minors.
