( Special. ) The at tendance of attorneys at the opening of su preme court this morning was not as large as usual , and no cases of general Interest were hcwrd during the forenoon. In the Omaha police commission cae Attorney Day , representing the Qregory-Hcrdman commis sion , waa glvca eight days In which to file tola brief , < tnd Judge Reese , representing Moores and the cHy of Omaha , was allowed tour days thereafter In which to get his briefs on flic , In the action brought to compel the gov ernor to proceed In proper order In the hear Ing of the charges against tbo Omaha Fire and Police Commission , tbe governor was al lowed twelve days In which to file brief , the other aide to have brief ready within twelve days thereafter. Ono case that will bo submitted tomorrow % morning Is of more than usual Interest , for tfie veason that It will bq a test case at- foctyig a largo number of school land holders all over the state. The caae Is brought by W. T. Pattterson of Pawnee county , hla attor ncys being Conley & Fujton , two gentlemen who are prominent In fusion politics In the southeast part ot the etate. The case was first brought Into prominence about six months ago , and at that time the State Board ot Educational Lands and Funds w.is o anxious to suppress the news about the case that lomo suspicions wcro naturally aroused. ThU led to the charge being made that the contention of Pallet-eat * waa brought at the Instance of the board , the object be ing to knock out an Important part of the now law affecting school lands. The pres ent action , or rather Inaction , ot tbe attor ney general would Indicate that the charge ia not entirely unfounded. PATTERSON'S PROPOSITION. Patterson held a quarter section of school land In Pawnee county by virtue of a leaae He Improved the land .and added substantla ! buildings. Ho Raid the Improvements cos $2,000 and that ho added them with the ful expectation of buying tbo land under the provisions of the law then In force. His con tcntlon now Is that the law prohibiting the further sale of school lands Is unconstltu tlonal Insofar as It applies to those who hcli leases previous to the passage of the law. The attorneys for Patterson filed thel brief some time ago and the time for th j j opposition to file brief expired a week ago There was an understanding between the Pawnee county attorney and the attorney general that the latter official would file the fcrlef. He failed to do so , however , giving as an excuse that ho was too busy , and now declines to aid In the submission of the case The county attorney from Pawnee came up today and found that not only Is there ni brief prepared , but that he will have to gi Into court tomorrow morning and defend th casa against the onslaughts of the attorney ! who want to knock out the law , without hav Ing a chance for due preparation. The ot torney general has made no explanation at to why ho.allows a case that may have such a far-reaching effect'to go before the cour In this manner.

By a rig orbus circulation of this report at too late a date to counteract Its Influence , Myers wa defeated by John Stout , the present demo oratlc clerk , now serving his third term , by Just ninety-nine votes.

The first "play ball , " which will open the Vesteru league season and start the race for ho pennant , la to be hea-d this afternoon at 'Indianapolis , where the latter and Detroit will open their first series. This will be the only league game to be played today. On Thursday the season opens In this city with St. Paul , at Columbus with Milwaukee and at Kansas iClty with Minneapolis. Preliminary to the opening game tomorrow , irrangemcnts have been male for a parade hrough the clt ) ' .

It Is expected that the grounds -will to reached at 2:30 : o'clock , and the 'band ' will rctiJer a concert tor an hour before tbo openlug ofthe game at 3:30. : The cranks at all the league cities are hot for the opening games , and everywhere they are already picking the winning upper divi sion. In Indianapolis they have it in this wise : Indianapolis , St. Paul , Detroit , Colum bus and Minneapolis. In Milwaukee they think a better guess goes : Milwaukee , Minne apolis , Indianapolis , Columbus. In Detroit they have It this way : Indianapoll > ' , De' troll , Milwaukee , Minneapolis. In Minneap olis they say It ought to read : Minneapolis , Indianapolis , St. Paul and Milwaukee. Down Kansas City way they arc not so san guine , but Jimmy Mann'.ng Is betting that tbo Blurs will end In the flrst division. tbbi In all thesa varied flgurlngs tbe Omaha bibea have no place whatever , but despite the delay In getting them together they may form a combination that may eurprlsa these fem men before the season is over.

The babes were given their flrst outing under the eye of Captain Fisher yesterday , They were taken out to the grounds early and were kept hard at work for sev eral hours. At noon they knocked off work tc take a little lunch and then put in some more time. The latter part o : Piol ol the afternoon was turned over to the olw workmen en the grounds. Owing to the rain the diamond Is not In tbe best condition , bu tt will be packed as hard as a roller can make It before the opening game. The stands are almost complete , and on Thursday afternoon St. Paul will open on the pretties' base ball grounds In the league , even If 1 will not bo quite complete. The following have been left out of the sifting that has been made by Captain Fisher and they were all on hand : Hagerman Fisher , Roat , McKlnney , McKlbben , Lawler BMuford , Burnett , Lyons , Schrall and Griffin EusMco arrived In the city yeoterday , bu ca ho was somewhat worn out with bis trip he went to bed. He will bo out In a uniform this morning. Fisher and Hagerman both loosened up their rms a little bit , but did not try to do much work on account of tbe coolness of the weather. The rest of the push came up In turn and showed what they could do with the etlck. Captain Fisher expressed himself ao satisfied with the work at the bat In view of the fact that the players hove bad so little practice. The diamond was too rough to give a very good line on the fielding , but It showed up pretty well The arms of the boys seemed to be all right It will bo seen from the list of those called out for practice that the only local man who appears to have any show Is Lawler. It he can keep up the work that he shows In practice , he will be taken on. Turner , whom O'Brien picked as a phenom , will not cut much Ice because Captain Fisher declaims that ho has no time to experiment with un developed material. Turner or no Turner , and without any phenomi , the > baibes will have a good pitchIng - Ing staff. Fisher and Hagerman should both do gooJ work , and Daub , the recently se cured Brooklyn twlrler , ought to more than hold up bis end. Fisher is now dickering for another , Monroe of Indianapolis , who Is said to be gocd enough to go with the above trio. There is still another man for whom the captain has a string , Houseman , now at Chicago. If the latter is secured , ant efforts to do so are now toeing made , he will prcfcably be put to preside over second bag McAuley has telegraphed that he Is now on tbe way to this city and ought to ar rive here some time today. Captain Comlskey of St. Paul has already sent his batting list and It look * mighty formidable. It reads as follows : Preston , middle ; Burke , left ; Miller'right ; Glssscock flrst ; Olenalvin , second ; Shugart , short ; Gll- len , third ; Splra , catch. The pitcher wll ) be either Denzer , Cross or Phyle. One would thlnU. looking at this list of men. that he was viewing a National league batting order , Inasmuch M every man there tas figured In the big league. 6OME NOTES OF THE GAME. Sandy Grlswold Is 'being ' considered as a candidate for the position of secretary and business manager ot the team and has He- cured good backing. . McBrlde , who was the crackerjack batter of the Western League last year , and was with St. Paul , to with Cincinnati this year and ao far has not lived up to bis reputation as a. stlcksman. In justice to him , how ever , it can be said that be has been handi capped by a "fat thumb , " which ho got from misjudging a fly ball while practicing down In Texas. Jimmy Manning has secured for the Blues now pitcher In one Charles Plttlnger , who played with Brockton ot the New England league during the fore part ot last sea son , but ended the year with Boston. He Is ono of Frank Selee's finds , who has senl him to Kansas City for development. Plt tlnger la to bo on band before the opening Ol the season. Fred Barnes , who made his debut with the team of the University of Nebraska , and is now with Milwaukee , may be put In the in field Instead of the box. He has tried both third and ehort and prefers this work to for one of these positions , It Is said that he may be permanently installed In one o : them. A portion of the Minneapolis team was the city Yesterday and will remain here until tonight , when they will leave for Kan sas City , where they will play their opening game.

Advice Is the cheapest thing we can offer ; it rarely cotta the giver anything and yet It la the very thing which meet women pay money for and still they worry. Writ ers on health subjects for women say , don't worry , cultivate a happy frame of mind , void fatigue , eat nutritious food end ( uke open air exercloe. What woman docs not do all thki ? And In addition she tries vari ous patent bottled remedUo , face lotions and physician's prescriptions and yet ehe does not get well. The Idea of spoonfuls of dope to euro diseases that affect the vagina la ab surd and thU fact Is clearly ehown when women suffer from ten to forty years with painful monthly elcknete , falling of the womb , Inflammation and other uterine dis eases and never obtain any permanent bene fit from the advice , prescriptions and bet tled remedies. The system la ull wrong. To cure any womb trouble the medicine must be applied direct to the parts. This Is so true that any other method must be and always ha * been a failure. There Is a rem edy called Hasollne that cures all forme of womb trouble and la applied direct to the parts. It U perfectly harmless and yet is remarkably effective in a surprisingly short time. It la sold by druggists tn Omaha at r 1513 Dodge street ; 134 South 16th street ; and 1523 Farnam street. The price Is one del lar a box or will be mailed prepaid by tbe Huzellno Co. , South Bend , Ind. , on receipt of price. U la stated en the highest au thority that this Is the only remedy that will cure female diseases and It will cer tainly be worth one dollar to try It since It promisee Absolute relief and cure from the pains of womb diseases. Write to the Hazel- Ino Co. for their book which tells why Hazelino cures. It U very instructive. DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHISKEY ALL DRUGGISTS.
