TJTE OMAHA DAILY BEE : SUNDAY , JULY 28 , 1805. THE WHISTLE OF THE UPLAND line Sport for the Gunners on tlio Hillsides and Meadows. SIX-DAY nACEAT THE NEW BICYCLE PARK An OldThin.Sliciot Sporln of ( lip Hummer HolMlli'e Tin * ConiliiK llenc-Ii Slum The ( JrniikH1 l'ii- lut IT ( ( ucNlloiiM AIIXVV creil. IIH fluffy plume of the | golden rod now waves In Its fullest beauty In the summer breeze , while tin * V aster winks and blinks //like / / { a blue eye peeping ( without the tan of hay- afield or gresn of meadow. Thin la the time tor the upland plover In this 'favored latitude , and the * gportsmon are In high l/ff feather. The birds seem to be more plentiful than for several jears past , and many flno btgs have been made within an easy drive of the city. While the upland plover ranks well up with the best game birds , and while they are exceedingly plentiful on Ne braska's broad plains , local gunners do not know as much about the habits and charac teristics of the bird as Is warranted by their advantages. Of course there ore many sportsmen who are as well posted wllh ret- orcuco to this bird as they are with game of all Kinds , but there Is a big majority of shooters who do not even know the bird's name or anything about Its habits other than that It Is to be found on our pialrlea and Is good to cat. According to the very b"st ornithological authorities this bird Is not a plover at all , but a sandpiper , called after Uartram , whose classlllcatlon of the bird was first accepted However , according to my v uy of thinking , the Dirtramlan sandpiper Is ns much of n plover as any of the numerous species digni fied hy this generic name. I'lover , accord ing to Andiibon anil other old-time natu ralists , arc conllned strictly to the llmlcolac or shore birds , probably tiocuise the name is derived from the Latin pluvla , rain. While the upland plover Is closely allied to all this numerous family It Is distinctly different Ir many traits , ono of which Is Its abhorence for wet places In all others It Is slmllai In looks , action and almost everything else to the large family that Is authoritatively pro nounced plover The bird arrives In this region In Its great- cHt numbers during the last week of Jnl > nnd the first week of August , and In fact many of them breed here , as they do In at thci Intervening country between Kansas an < the llrltlsh Columbia line , but most numer ously In the latter region. The bird re mains hero but a comparatively brief tlmi after maturity , and long before tin last of August has winged lt < way to the sunny tablelands of Mexico where Its winters are spent Nebraska' ; broad flehls , however , are favorite feedlnf grounds for the Ilartramlan , and they take or fat here as they do In no other section o the- globe The nutritious nature of 0111 countless grass seoda Is something tint work : wonders In this line and Is the bird's prlnclpa fattening diet The plover Is exceedingly fem of these , and I have never jet been able to ad vance any theory for his eirly depurtun southward. I have acquired a consldorabli fund of gime bird Knowledge during tlilrtj jears experience ns a shooter nnd sportsman bur the short stny of the upland plover In : locality so capitally adapted for his vvelfan Is , and I presume always will be , a niyster ; to me. The only tenable theory I cm ad vance Is the bird's mortal dread of cold. A : 800H as the summer inorntng'n dew begin to take on a frosty nppeartnco It Is the per cmptory signal for him to pack his gray mottled valise , mount to the sky and speei away for Texas and Mexico's salnbrlou climes. During their stay here they are Invarlabl ; found in the grcitest numbers upon the wld nptanil meadows , on the sloping hillsides where the sunshine falls with greatest fervor and where thcro Is plenty of short , stniggllni bunch gracs and seed-bearing weeds ot different ont kinds. The big luyflelds , newly mown wheat stubble and recently plowed ground ar other roHorU much favored by this dalnt fellow. You need never look for them I rocky or wooded lands , or In low or swamp places. Our measureless pasture lands , wher the cattle browse , are n grand rendezvous fa this llttlo feathered king. Here he gorge himself with the farinaceous seeds nnd th Intect food to which ho Is voraciously par tlatho . tiny green grasshopper , worms small snails and coleopterous files which In fest wards nnd grasses The upland plover is both a wary and a unwary bird If jou attempt to stalk hit afoot ho always flushes at good , long range yet the gunner Is not placed at such a dlsad vantage as one might suppose.

AITnlrM of tin * Ciinlnt * Kingdom. There are to be lively times In the canine king-lorn here this fall , for there Is every In dication that the Omaha Kennel club's bench show In September will bo ono ot the finest exhibitions ever held In the country not excepting the famous shows ot Chicago , St. kouls , Cincinnati , St. Louts and New York. The exhibition a vear ago under the auspices of this organisation was a magnificent suc cess and was profusely noticed and com mented on In all the eportlng journals In the country. That It haJ a decidedly stimu lating effect upon the lovers of thoroughbred ogs In nnd about the Prairie City there 1s o denying , and there arc more fine dogs ere now of all fashionable breeds than ever efore. It Is estimated , upon a rcsonablc asls. too , that Omaha and vicinity alone : an show over 3Xi ( good dogs In the different "asies that will aggregate In value many lionsanJi of dollars. But U will not be cal dogs alone that will he on the Kennel ub's bench In September , but famous and Igh bred fellows from all over the United talcs.

The bill that wa > presented to the legislature during the lasl crm was largely drawn In favor ot this greal gimc bird , and It would have been a grani hing for Nebraska sportsmen had It passed Jut It failed for a lack of "s-igar" to Insure its passage , and the prairie chicken In Ne- iraska can be considered doomed.

He had three birds , two cocktf'and a hen. The hen laid nineteen eggi In one nest and one of the cocks set on them. Then she bid tw enty one eggs In another nest , which the other cock took charge of. She then made a third nest and set herself when she had nlno eggs. A fair proportion hatched from all three nests , and thirty-one birds grew up to maturity. An old shooting host writes me from the sitidhlll lake country that more wild ducks are breeding In that region this ) car than In any year during his residence there , a period of fifteen years.

The weather was slightly ton Id , but the croud was there , the en thusiasm at fever heat , and the different events of exceptional Interest. The nttciul * unco was umiucstlonnbly the best , both as to quantity and quality , that has ever marked an open air meet In this cltv. There wcro fully 1,500 people ftathorel within the park , one-half ot whom were ladles. The grand stand and bleachers wcro both packed , while many carriages lined the western rim of the track. In justice to the club It must bo said that they were In no wlso responsible for the nonrppearnnco of a number of the entries. The night previous , during practice , 0. 0 Hayman of Grind Island , one-mile state champion , Will Plxley , the half and two- mlle champion : Kim ; Denmnn nnd H. K KreJrlcksoi , were piled up In a promiscuous heap , owing to a mishap to llnyman. Prcd- rlckson was the enl > ono of tno quartet who oscjped considerable Injurv , and was the only one to ride veslcrday. Hayman BUS- tallied an ugly Kash In his sldo , and re quired medical attendance , whllo 1'lxley nnJ Denman were both bruised and contused sufllclently to warrant their withdrawal from yesterdaj's contest. Why Ilolton nnd Mack did not participate has not been ex plained. Notwithstanding these scratches , however , all the events were fairly well IllleJ , and went oft with eclat. I10VS MADE TI1D lliST HACK. Ill point of time the missenger boys' ono mile was undeniably the best event of the afternoon's card. Hrown's performance , 2 40 Hat , was aery meritorious one , In fact e\- celli'iit rollottiiiK tills c\cnt , In merit , was the half-mile open , Frcdrlckson winning In 1 10 , Jnst four seconls behind I'lxlcy's state record. While those two races were ex traordinarily good , considering the track , the whole card was most Interesting and enjoy able ' 1 he military race. In which event the contestants carried all of the accoutrements ar a long march , knapsack , blanket , can- ccn , 100 rounds of ammunition and musket , clghlng In alt seventy-five pounds , Sha won n the. fair time of 10 1GV4 , Deree being dls- anced. The ten-mile race created much nthuslasm. t'redrlckson was again the Inner , although joung Carraher from Cass ounty give him a close call There was but ODD occurrenc to mar thn fternoon's sport and that came nearly being Herlous one On the last lap of the ono- illo open Tom Patterson and Har\ey IIol- ouay , the Plattsmouth entries , had a hard all. In which both were more or less In- ired. Kredrlckson was In the lead , closely ollowed by Patterson nnd Holloway. On the outheast urn , a dangerous one at best , 'atterson's wheel either got the best of him r bltated from undci him Ho wobblel hreatenlngly for twenty jarda or more , then vent Into the fence with a tremendous mash. Holloway strove valiantly to escape , ut was going at such ttrrlble speed that his was Impossible , and Into the fence uml n top of Patterson he dashed , wltli a crash hat was heard all over the park A thrill of error \\ent through the excited crowd as ota men lay In a heap , with their wheels t the side of the track Assistance was ulckly nt hand anJ Patterson was speedily Isentanglcd from the wreck , but Holloway \as unconscious. Restoratives were applied , lid on reviving ho was assisted to the Club louse , where examination revealed he had nlTered an ugly gash In the back of his bead , n addition to a very general and painful halting up Patterson , too , was more or ess hurt , and of course both gentlemen were ut of the hunt for the balance of the day. An amusing sldo Issue to the program vas an exhibition quarter of a mile by Ilahy Hiss , a 503-puund cherub from Chicago. This vns much enjoyed , especially by Young America , who gave the mountain of ilcs.li an inmorclful guying as he wheeled like a tills- le-down around the course , "llaby" rode a it-pound wheel.
