Qulncy won the third game from On.aha almost as she pleased , and In the presence of the largest crowd of the season , at that. There were In the neighborhood of 2.GOO people ple present , and among them was a flattering representation of the fair nex. Ilalnz did the bulk of the pitching for the local outfit , but his work was In lamentable contrast with that of the opening day. He was both wild and easy , and every man on the Illinois delegation lilt him for one or more eafcs. Kagan relieved him In the sev enth Inning after two runs had been scored oft him , but he was unable to stem the tide and took a little of the medicine with which Balsr. had almost foundered himself , Thu score shows three more errors for Qulncy than it docs for Omaha , but this only goes to demonstrate the fallacy of base ball scores , for the Omalias were overwhelmingly outplayed at all points In the gitiie. While they made but four errors , they made enough wooden-headed plays to lajt them the balance of the summer , and what the team most needs Just now Is another captain. Hutchln- .son Is unfit for the position , and It Is false doctrine to Interfere with his cffectlveneis by shouldering these duties upon him. Lehman or Ulrlch should be given the captaincy be fore another game Is played. A word with reference to the Qulncys , then good evening. They played superior ball all along the line. Dolami's remarkable batting bring the principal feature , although every man covered lilniRcIf with glory , despite the t-rrors made. Again It Is asserted Brackett's bind will bo there or thereabouts when the he < uon ends , and you can drive a nail here. The score : OMAHA. AB. U. IB. SH. SB. PO.

LONDON , May C , The Post , commenting upon the performances of the American horses at Newmarke , says : "The Ameri can boom was bound to die sooner or Inter. The cany symptoms thereof were supplied Thursday , when three of their vaunt'il representatives , Stonenell , Harry Uced and Montiuik went down like ordinary stock. As for the time trials and other eccen tricities in running , Montuuk Is not a llycr , and It Is a very open question If Harry Heed will have any English supporters for the Jubilee stakes , for no one Is Insane enough to bell.-vi' that English liorsef. t minors and jockeys hove been standing Mill for generations past to clear thu way for American advance. If Stotienell was senn nt his best In the nice for tlu March stakes' , when receiving fourte-n pounds from Best Man , his Incomparable Inferiority was cx- posed to u ridiculous extent.

The party left Berkeley , Cal. , on May 2 , and expect to arrive in Princeton , where their first contest takes place next Tuesday. A lumber of college and athletic club teams will meet during the trip , but the prlncl- pal , event In which they take part arc the Motthaven games , which occur on Mny 25. The trip will last two months , the team ex pecting to get back home July 1. The Idea of sending a team to compete In eastern Intercollegiate games originated with Arthur North , U. C. , ' 95. He began last year to work up an Interest In the scheme , but ast summer he was taken seriously 111 with yphold fever , which prevented his further efforts. Fred W. Koch was then elected track cap tain , and with the beginning of the year he at once commenced work. In a short time had convinced the athletes that the scheme was feasible , and started them training on the track and In the gymnasium. After this things went more easily , for as the pros pects for the trip grew brighter the enthusi asm at college Increased. Every man who thought he could run , jump or vault or throw the weights came out and tried for the team. New men came up , and records were bet tered , until at last a team was developed that Is far better than any of former years. Some time ago Captain Koch sent chal lenges to the universities of Princeton , Penn * sylvanla , Yale and Harvard. Princeton and Pennsylvania at once accepted , but Harvard declined. Yale replied that while she had a date open In which she cculd meet California , the contest would bo so hard as to probably ruin her chances In the big games nt Mott haven track. So Yale declined to contest. Princeton nnd Pennsylvania soon showed their friendly feeling by offering to do every thing In their power to aid the team In secur ing the best quarters , and promising the use of the college tracks , with all facilities for training. Chicago was challenged , but , being under very serious doubts of her ablllly to successfully compale with the lively Call fornla bays , she declined. The University ct Michigan signified Its eagerness to compete against the U. C. anil made an offer to the traveling team of a guarantee of all expenses connected with the team's trip to Ann Arbor and training 'quar ' tefin there , together with 35 per cent of the gate receipts. This offer was accepted and a date fixed. Either on June 15 or June 22 the team will meet the Denver Athletic club. The Multnn- mah Athletic club of Portland , Ore. , has also been negotiating for meets with the team on Its return trip. The date has not been decided upon as yet. STRONG IN RUNNERS. Fred W. Koch Is captain of the team , mid dle distance runner , high Jumper and Rhot putter. He has put the shot forty feet , two Inches , high jumped five feet , ten Inches run the 410 yards In 0:513-5 : , and the half In 2:01 : 1-5 , breaking the coast record In the latter anil the university record In the shot put , by one foot , two Inches.

"I suppose that hardly any Inhabited Island of the West Indies Is less known to the world .han Montserrat. Two American and two Urltlsh steamers touch there every month , jut there ore rarely any passengers going or coming. If it were not for the labels we sometimes see on lime-juice bottles , 'Pure Montserrat Lime Juice , ' we should hardly ; ver hear of the place. It Is the great llme- lulce producer of tbo world : nnd as no Brit ish ship Is allowed to leave part without a supply of lime julco for the sailors , tne busl- tic4s Is a largo one. It Is pretty nearly In the heart of the tropics , being In latitude 1C degrees 42 minutes north. It Is a tiny place , only twelve miles long and eight broad In Its largest parts , and containing less than fifty square miles , with a population of 10,000. When I landed I made the 193d white person on the Island ; there were 192 before I arrived , all the others being col ored. "Small as It Is , Montscrrnt has had a checkered existence. Columbus himself dis covered It In 14D3 , but after that the Island lay undisturbed by the whites for nearly two centuries. The English colonized It and the French captured It ; then It was restored to ho English nnd again captured by the French , and In 1784 It was once more handed over to the English and they have held it ever since. Like our own country It has a president , but he la appointed by the crown and Is subordinate ? to the governor of neigh boring Antigua. Ills salary Is $2,000 a year. which Is a lot of money In Plymouth , the capital town. Over In Jamaica everything was in the past ; they show a stranger not so much what they have , as what they have ! iad ; oo It was a relief to llnd that Montserrat Is living in the present. The little Island Is doing as well now as it ever did. perhaps better , bc-causo it depends not upon sugar , but upon limes. I tell you these little things about the Island so that you will know what sort of n .place I was going tu. "I will Just add that the center of the island la a mountain rising several thousand feet high , and that Its reputed floral treasures were what attracted me to Montserrat. On the sea level In those latitudes you find only ' the flora of hot countries ; but on the nioun- 'alns " you nnd the flora of all climates. "When we'sppreached Plymouth ono of the first things I saw was a long stone wall half way up the Mil , Surmounted , as I thought , by a row ofcarinon , ; balls at Irregular" tervals. But as. 'wo drew nearer I found that my supposed''cannon ' ' balls were the heads of . colored gentlemen"who stood on the ground behind , watching , pur arrival. A dilapidated wooden pier"penciled out thirty or forty feet Into tha"water , , and soon the greater part of the 1.400 Inhabitants of the town were there to. see' s land. Our first effort to throw a line .ashore was a failure , and the sailor who threw.- made some uncompli mentary remarks.- This brought a reply from the man on the shore who was sup posed to t-i'a catcji - cpal-bhck negro of great size. . "Oh , phwah.are ye glvln' ns ! " the black man shouted. "Be Jasus , how can I calch the loino whthf J can't rache It ? " " ' "There wer'e shouts of derision from the crowd , and every word spoken was in as rich an Irish brogue as one could hear In New lork or Kilkenny. The brogue would have been a pleasant reminder of home If Us car.lng from a crowd of West India negroes had not given It an uncanny sound. \\liy , those fellows talk llko black Irish men , I said to the captain cf the schooner. " ' ' ' 'Irish'he ! replied. 'They're as Irish as DHIy-be-dam. Nine-tenths of the darkles on this Island are of Irish descent. They say they're ths only Irish darkies In the world. "It was not till I was settled In the Red Lion hotel In Plymouth t.st ! r sclvod the myotcry of these Irl.'h negroes. Many years ago a company of Irish Quakers bought a large tract of land In Montserrat , and went Into the llme-Juico business extensively. They Imported a great many Irish laborers , and a large proportion of those men were unable to resist the attractions of the native women , and married and settled down there. There children , .of course , were half Irish nnd half negro , but the Irish blood was the stronger , nnd the negro characteristics had to give way before It. The original Irishmen have been dead and gone for years , but their descendants have rcpeopled the Island , and the brogue and other Irish characteristics remain. "Tho physical results of this union of two races : are often startling. Some of the Irish negroes are almost as white as you or I , and others are coal black. There's no telling what may happen In a Montserrat family. One baby Is a typical African , and the next Is a fair little thing , with straight red hair. It Is not only In Montserrat , either , that such things happen. I know a white man on one of the other Islands , a man of wealth and refinement , without the slightest sign of any black blood In him , whose father also was perfectly white and well educated. This man married a beautiful American girl , nnd there was mourning In the family when In duo time there was born to them a child as black as the ace of spades. The man knew what It meant , and he had to explain that there had been a trace of black blood In his grandfather , which had lain dormant through two generations , but had thus made Itself plainly nnnlfcst In the third. The child was hurried off to America to be reared and educated , and Is here now , and four or five perfectly white children were born to the couple afterward. " NOT THE BIGHT KIND OP DAY Why JMr .

( Special. ) A number - ber of Important army retirements will occur during the month of May. The grades In which the olllccrs rank range from a major to n brigadier general. Chief of the retire ments Is that of Brigadier General Thomas Lincoln Casey , chief of engineers. General Casey will go Into private life on the 10th of May , and this Is the first retirement that will occur this month. There Is already much gossip being Indulged In aj to who will be his successor. The general opinion among army officers ts that Colonel William P. Cralghlll will bo appointed by President Cleveland. Colonel Cralghlll Is third In rank among the colonels of the engineer carps , but both Colonel Mcndcll and Colonel Abbott , who precede Colonel Cralghlll , will retire during the present year , and It Is said neither one of them Is likely to receive the appointment on account of the nearness of the date of their retirement. Both of thaie colonels who out- rrr.k Colonel Cralghlll are excellent officers , and it cannot bo said that they shall fall to secure the appointment on account of an un deserving record. Colonel Cralghlll , however , It Is under- stood. Is the choice of nearly all the army officers Interested In tha appointment , and es pecially nre the olllcers of the engineer corps anxious that he should receive the appoint"I meat. WILSON MIGHT HAVE IT. Colonel John M. Wilson U said to be such a favorite with President Cleveland that If ho should solicit the appointment ho might have no dllllculty In securing It. Colonel Wilson Is In charge of the public buildings and grounds of Die District of Columbia. Ho of course Is superintendent of the buildings and grounds around the executive mansion , anl while holding this position has been thrown In contact with President Cleveland , and owing to the fact that they are warm friends It Is the common belief that If he were anxious to secure the appointment as chief of engineers he might easily do so. The latest rumor , however , and It seems to be well grounded , Is that Colonel Wilson docs not covet the position , and Is , on the con trary , working In the Interest of Colonel Cralghlll , whom he would llko to see have the position. If such Is the case Colonel Cralghlll will probably bo appointed , since the opinion of Colonel Wilson will have much weight with President Cleveland. The president Is not restricted to the grade of colonel In making the appointment , but It Is believed that ho will confine his choice to that grade , as It is not probable that he would pass over the deserving colonels and glvo the appointment to any ofllcer In a lower grade. Should cither of the colonels bo ap pointed chief of engineers , with the rank of brigadier general. Lieutenant Colonel John W. Barlow would be pro mote ! to the rank of colonel. Major David P , Heap would become lieutenant colonel , Cap tain William L. Marshall would bo made major. First Lieutenant Henry E. Waterman captain , Second Lieutenant Edgar Jadwln first lieutenant and Additional Second Lieu tenant James P. Jcrvey second lieutenant. GENERAL CASEY'S SERVICES.

IN THE Q. M. G.'S DEPARTMENT. Another retirement which will occur this month Is that of Colonel Jtidson II. Blngham , assistant quartermaster general , on the ICth Instant , lly his retirement Lieutenant Col onel George H. Weeks will be promoted to the colonelcy. Major Gilbert C. Smith will become lieutenant colonel , and Captain John L. Clem to the majority , leaving a vacancy In the grade of captain. Up to a short time ago thEre were three vacancies in the grade of captain In the quartermaster's department , but the prerldent filled these vacancies at the same tlino that he made the appointments to fill the vacancies occurring on account of the retirement of Major General McCook. First Lieutenants John T. French , Jr. , Fourth ar tillery ; James B. Aleshlro , First cavalry , and Isaac W. Llttell , Tenth Infantry , were appointed to fill the vacancies. This vacancy therefore will bo the only vacancy which a will exist In the grade of captain. One of the candidates for appointment as captain Is Lieutenant J. J. Pershlng , Tenth cavalry , nr who Is professor of military science and tac tics at the Nebraska State university. In Lincoln. First Lieutenant Lewis M. Kcehler of the Ninth cavalry , statcloned at Fort Du- Chesne , Utah , Is also a candidate , as , is also In First Lieutenant Gonzalcs S. Ulngham , Ninth cavalry , who is a son of the retiring colonel. The appointments to the three vacancies which were Just filled had been delayed for a quite a long while , the first vacancy having occurrc.l In August last , so It Is likely that the appointment to fill the vacancy caused by Colonel BiiiKham's retirement will not made Immediately , but may be delayed for In some time. There Is a largo number of a In candidates , and It Is believed that others will announce themselves before the time arrives for making the appointment. IlKTIREMENTS IN THE LINE. to On May 12 Major Frederick M. Crandal , Twenty-fourth Infantry , will retire , promot ing Captain Thomas J. Lloyd , Eighteenth Infantry , to the grade cf major.

Salmon , chief of the bureau of nnlin.il Industry , being Interrogated as to Armour's statement of an avcrago constant loss of between 17 and 13 cents on each hiad of cattle slaughtered by his : house during a long period of time , said he had no criticisms to make as to the ver acity of the statement as far as It goes , but , " ho added , "Mr. Armour separate ! the dressed beef department from the trans- portatlon trade and from various depart ments of his business which are all closely related. It Is currently rumored and gen erally ; believed that the firm of Armour & Cc have about 3,000 refrigerator cars rolling over the various rallronds of the United States , carrying dressed beef to their cus tomers. And some wickedly curious peopl ? declare that they cannot tell when they buy dressed beef how much of the money goes for transportation and how much for meat. Possibly If Mr. Armour will state the losses Incurred by his firm In the transportation of beef during the sims period of time that he covered In stating Its loss upon beef Itself the further losses of that firm would so excite public sympathy that those who eat beef would cat the more , and those would eat It , too , who never ate It before. How ever , until It Is known what the losses of Armour & Co. oreon the business of their refrigerator . cars In carrying dressed meats the public may refrain from tears.

Wo went first to Glasgow , doing Scotland , England and Lon don'then ; we visited Holland and Belgium , followed the Rhine to Maycnce , and thence by Frankfort and Lelpslo to Ber lin. From Berlin we went Dresden , Munich , Innsbruck In the Tyrol into Italy , seeing Verona , Venice , Florence , Rome , Pisa , Genoa and Milan. Then wo went over the St. Gothard to Lucerne nnd Switzer land , thence to Paris , Windsor , Ox ford , Stratford , Chester and Liver pool. Wo tramped for several days In Scotland , for a week among the English lakes and for two weeks In the Alps. We stayed at native Inns and hotels , except In largo cities , where wo usually took lodgings. a We went second cabin In steamships and second end and third class on railroads. Our luggage consisted simply of a camera and two knap- racka. Our knowledge of foreign languages was confined to a llmltej command of Ger man , which stood us In good stead In Austria. Italy and Switzerland. Had we known Italian and French our expenses would " " * have bsen less. Our living expenses for the whole tlmo , not Including the days on the ocean , average , 75 cents to each of us. Railroad and steamer fares averaged 97 cents each. Thus J1.72 was the whole actual cost per diem. Careful and detailed accounts of the expenses on our trip were made and preserved. Tnese figures , showing railroad , steamer and living ex penses , are actual , ret estimates. The rail vo road and steamship expenses from New York through England and the continent and re turn were $144.32 each. The living expenses , Including all dally Incidental : ) , for the two Tewl of us per week were as follows ; wl Scotland and Edinburgh .

It Is to bo noticed that the cheapest weak was In London , the cost of living there being less than GO cents each day. As a rule , the living expenses In the largo cities were con siderably less than else whore. Wo spent more than half the time In the great capi tals six weeks In London , three In Paris , two In Berlin and one In Rome. It was our n. plan to secure lodgings where wo remained week or more. ' In London wo had a pleas of ant room In Russell Square , only a few It minutes from the British museum , Holborn and the city. Our rent was 8 shillings a for week , or 1C cents each a day. On Holborn wo found a restaurant where a substantial roast beef dinner could bo had for from 6 pence up. Very often wo took our breakfast our room , It consisted of coffee , rolls and butter , cold Aicat , jam , otc. This was made possible by a small alcohol stove and supply of provisions. In Berlin wo iiad a Co. largo and very comfortable front room , con an taining two beds , a lounge , arm chairs , grate , piano , etc. , which cost us 1G murkd $ for the two weeks , or 13 cents a day each. not Paris wo paid even less for a room at hotel. Wo were nearly always fortunate having a definite place In mind before arriving In a city. Tbts came to us by dili gence and perseverence In conversing with fellow travelers. AVe always mndo it a rule arrive early In a town , so that wo could secure rooms to advantage. We asked ques tions without dtlnt , and prevented -ourselves from being swindled by making definite bar gains at the beginning. " vi Iliis Not IJult. PEoniA. 111. . May C.-J. B.

It Is not known what time will be given to Uio rearKunient of tlic Income tax cases , whtcti is to be begun In the United States supreme court tomorrow. The onlcr of the court granting the rehear ing did not specify as to time , and the chief justice Is quoted as having said since tint order was made that the argument would b at length. On the Ilrst arguments about twelve hours' time , equivalent to three supreme premo court days , were given to the subject. Then three attorneys were heard on each side. The chief justice's order In the pres ent Instance provides for the hearing at only two counsel on each side. It Is , there fore , probable th ? argument will be extended over at least two days , and It Is poaslbla counsel will seek to have It cover even mora time. The motion for the rehearing was for q second hearing on the points on which tha court was divided , but Attorney Oener.il Olney stated In his brief on the subject for a rehearing - hearing that In case the petition should ba granted he would ask to have the cnttr * question reopened , saying the government had never been heard as to whether a tax on rentals or dividends on bonds was constitu tional , as an original proposition , and Intl- mating that h ? should like to have an oppor tunity to go Into the question at length. JUSTICE JACKSON'S POSITION. As the entire question Is new to Justlct Jackson , In the sense that ho has heard none of the oral argument * , It Is considered not Improbable that more or less argument on all sides will be permitted. Whatever the conclusion of Justice Jackson , after hear ing the arguments , no reversal of the opin ion of the court In regard to Incomes from rents and public bonds Is posslbl % mile's at least two members of the court who partic ipated In the former decision change theli votes. The court stood six to two In pro nouncing that part of the law unconstitu tional. On the remaining features of tha hw the court divided , and If all the members of the court vote this tlm ? as they did be fore , Mr. Jackson's voice will decide tha matter. It Is understood that Attorney General Olney will appear In person In th ? presenta tion of the government's side of the question , and It Is probable he will be supported by Assistant Attorney General Whitney. Mr. Clioato will also again be th ? principal speaker for the appellants. Associate Justice HoweU E. Jackson of the United States supreme court arrived here to day from Nashville , Tenn.
