The six-day professional bicycle race was
Marted at the Cttarles Street park last evening -
ing under the most unfavorable atispices.
The croistI was there oil right enough , a
couple 'of thousand enthusiastic people being
crowded on the bleachers and in the stand ,
but an ominous pall of b'ack clouds overhung -
hung the enclosure antI made everybody 'ip-
itrehensivo that tie evening's sport could not
be long continued. And they were right ,
too , for' at twenty-five minutes after fi o'clock
a cold , drizzling mitt began to fail nut !
iloferee PcttCr was obliged to call the chase
oft for the ovenitig. It was a sore dltap-
pointment td the big crowd , as tue race rae
just getting good ; the riders , having thor-
ougiliy warmed , up , were just beginning to
allOW the stuff they are made of. The parade
of the various bicycle clubs in the evening
Was a showy One and by half past 7 c'ciock
au the best seats in the park were eccuplod.
The Seventh Ward band enlivened the occa-
sian with a spirIted program , anti hati it
not been for tIle utiwolcotno rain the oven-
ing's excitetitent Would have reached a grand
climax at the finish , As It was , the tlirflhlng
enthusiasm and the nerve and determination
of the doughtty contestants augur ' .voll for
great sport during the balance of the week.
At fire minutes of 8 the bugle summoned
the riders t the port , and as they .incti up
in fours it Was seen that the field was a
strong one anti a great race was on. Lester
Holton , one of the locai riders , had tito Polo

The Omaha foot ball players returned yesterday -
terday afternoon frOm Butte in no wise dls-
courageti over their defeat. They had not
eapecteti to win , being totally -without practice -
tico and every one of them out of condition.
Titoy played against a strong wind in both
halves and were further htandicapped by the
disabling of two of their best men early in
the game , and the substitutes vcre too light
to stand up against the big miners.
Tim boys speak in glowing terms of the
treatment the ) ' received at the hands of the
POOliO of Butte. Nothing ae too good for
them , anti every effort possible wtts made to
tender their short stay as peasant ! as possi-
bla. The town han gone daft on toot ball anti
is willing to back its eleven against anything -
thing that wears canvas. There is talk of
sending them east to play against the big eel-
heges , and this vill untloubtedly be done if
games can be secured.

For twelve rounds Lavigne bent a terrible
tattoo on ] Iurge's body and rib. He then
altered hi tactics and trietl for the face of
his opponent. This gave Ilurgo a chance anti
he tilti better than at any other : erloti of
time tight. One of his loft hatmtiers laniled
straight on the "Kid's" nose , spurting the
blood. The Englishmen then began to hope
that Burge might yet pull through , bmtt
Lavigne quickly flispelleti tile Illusion. Tie
rushed Ilurgo around the ring with redoubled
fury. His blows seemed to double up anti
almost kill llurge. anti now Lavigne was
able easily to reach his opponent's heati antI
face , Every blow left its mat-Ic and made
Durge wenker on hi feet. Ole struggled
along , however , to time sixteenth rounti , whmen
Lavigne landed two swinging knock-down
blows on the side of Burge's bead. He was
only just able to get on his feet for the next
rouutil , Lavigne gave him a tnrriile Ieft-hnntl
ititmch in the stomach anti as his head came
forward ito swung his right on time itho of
the head. Burgo fell flat upon his face. . It
wait not a knockout blow , bmit Burgo was
practically beaten. and in ortler to preveqt
any serious accident , the referee stopped
time fight. Burge was awfully punisimeui about
the stomach , chest and ribs , while Lavigne
was scarcely marked.
