HARTIMAS WINS FUTURITY
& .t Long Odds of Portj to One Ha Beats Out
the Publics' Favorites.
AUTUMN AND SIR HUBERT LEFT BEHIND
Iprnt an Hour and u Half
Away anil Jooltryu Are Fined
and Suspended for a
Week.
NHW YORK. Aug. 23. Fifteen thousand
people aw Martlmas at the Ions odds of
40 to 1 , win the Great Futurity stakia at
Shceprhead Bay today. High Degree coming
in second , while the public choices were
nowhere. The delay at the pout was the
longest on record in thin country , even beatIng -
Ing Pettingell's Chicago Derby , which waa
n hour and thirty minutes. The horses ,
the starter said today , were well behaved ,
and so he proceeded to administer fines ad
libitum and aet do\\n for a week four of the
jockeys , Including Sloan.
At the opening of the betting Autumn
* as a fa\orlto over the Flel chmann stable's
Dr. Eelchberg aad Sir Hubert , and at the
end waa really the favorite , although his
price waa a tittle .higher , but then it was
one horse against two. The Madden string.
Glenhelm. Rhlnelander and Scannell , were
next 111 favoritism , and down In the ring ,
where It wni like a furnace , the men tum
bled over each other In their eagerness to
put up their money on their choice.
High UfKrrc In the Lend.
The parade to the post began at 4 05
o'clock and the twenty-three youngsters'
cantered up the track. Then began the da-
lay. Several times the starter descended to
the track and gave the boys a talking to ,
but to no use. It was 5 37 when the twen
tieth and last break came , exactly one hour i I
and tnlrty-two minutes after they reached !
the post , and for so many youngsters It'
was really a good start. They were prac- '
tlcnlly in Une , the only one , really out of
It being Duke of Mlddleburg , who was to all
Intent * and purposed left at the post.
High Degree was the Brst away , with a .
little the better of Prestldigltatrlce. Ruaher , j I
Sir Hubert , His Lordship. Seannell and Mar- j
timaj , the others being close enough up to '
have a chance. Maner. the quick-witted
lightweight , dug his heels into High De
gree and set sail for the pole. In a few j
strides the filly had her nose in front of
Rusher Inch by inch at first , then foot by
foot and the short lint furlong had been
covered , with High Degree half a length In
front of Rusher , he a couple of lengths In
front of Autumn , on whom Taral was strug
gling hard in the deep , going on the out
side of the chute. Presttdl itatrice was only
a neck behind , with Scannell , Martlmas ,
His Lordship and Sir Hubert following and
11 the others well up. It waa anybody's
race then
The tl.ute was narro.cing now and all
were decking a good place In which to round
the bend into the main track. Maher wanted
the hard going at the rail , but Rusher clung
to High Degree like a leech and would not
be shaken oit. Two furlongs had been cov
ered and High Degree waa still half a length
In front of Rusher , who was then ouly a
neck In front of the favorite Autumn who !
was a nose in front of Sir Hubert , be In I
turu being a neck in front of the Canadian. I
Martlmas. PrestldlBltatrice was falling out | 1
of It and Armament was getting prominent |
Mulirr'a Hide fur Victory.
Now came a hustle , far the turn was at
band. All the boys were working like de
mons to get to the front. Rusher stopped
H U be cad been shot , and then bow '
Maher did ride. Crouching low on the
filly's , neck he drove her with hands and
heels i , and when there was hut a quarter
of a mile to go he was a good length and
a half In front , but he did not dare to
swing over against the rail now , as he was
far out on the track. Lewis , however , had
gradually worked to the rail and as they
turned Into the homestretch he was In the
coveted hard ground. Martimas was flying
He was already in second place at the
quarter , two lengths in front of Rusher ,
who was a length In front of Mr Clay , who
was in a bunch with Dr. Eichberg , Sir
Hubert and His Lordship Now the last
furlong pole was reached and little Maher
saw Martlmas rush by on the firm , hard
footlns against the rail , while the tired
filly under him was stopping in the deep
dust , an < } Autumn , Mr Clay and Dr. Eich
berg , with Sloan on the latter , finishing In
his best syle , were trying to wrest the second
end place away from him. For an Instant
Autumn bad his nose in front of the filly
and then stopped as if be had been shot
and finished away back. Then Maher
worked harder than ever and , although he
could not catch the Canadian in front , who
won easily by a couple of lengths , he could
and did get second money by half a length.
There was a pretty struggle for third place
between Williams on Mr. Clay and Sloan
on Dr. Elchberc and the former cot it by
a hpad. The remainder of the bunch were
so close together at the end that it was
Impossible to separate the horses.
The boys who caused the delay at the
start were fined J20 apiece and Sloan , Claw-

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.
Concerted action la to be taken by the
packlns houses and stock yards with a
view to having the boulevard from Hanscom
park to the entrance to the stock yards
properly repaired and placed In a passable
condition. During dry weather the road
I Is all right for driving , with the exception
that It gets very lusty , but during and fol
lowing rains thioad Is almost Impassable.
Dozens of men who have business Interests
here drive to and from Omaha over thla
. rood. It belns the moat direct and In fact
[ the only practicable route.
The intention of the packers aad others
Interested la to present a petition to the
county commissioners urging that the
boulevard from Hanscom park south to the
stock yards be graded and macadamized.
This petition Is to be presented by men of
Influence with the Idea , of doing everything
possible to have the prayer sranted. The
desire of the packers and the stock yards
company was made known to Mayor Ensor
yesterday and he promised to do what he
could , but he stated that at the present
time the city waa In no condition to stand
any portion of the expense.
This boulevard , the mayor says , Is not
used to any great extent by South Omaha
citizens , unless it be for pleasure driving ,
and for that reason he does not feel like
advocating the expenditure of any of the
city's money for this grading and paving
when the majority to be benefited reside
in Omaha. With this road In good shape
the drive from Omaha can be made In
much less time than at present and In wet
weather itfe benefit will be especially no-
Ijjtlceable. Nearly every hea\7 rain washes
out a portion of the road and as repairs
are seldom made the roadbed is a aeries
of miniature hills and valleys from one
end to the other. Should the county com
missioners see Dt to order the Improve
ments made it will be necessary to take
steps to enforce the council resolution
passed some time ago directing the placing
of a watchman at the grade- crossing near
D street. When this matter was up sev
eral months ago the railroads objected to
locating a watchman at the crossing , but
ijreed to put In an automatic crossing

alarm. The council consented to this ar
rangement , with the understanding that
should the appliance prove unsatisfactory
it should be removed and a watchman sta
tioned there. A short time after thla agree
ment several serious accidents were nar
rowly averted and the attention of the cfly
lawmakers was again called to the dan-
geroua crossing. It then developed that
neither a watchman nor an automatic ap
pliance had been provided. The railroads
were jacked up and then orders were Is
sued for all trains to stop at this crossing
and be TTagged across by a brakeman.
Thla scheme worked for perhaps a week
and then the brakemen concluded It was
too much work and neglected this part of
their duties. Other complaints followed
and the railroads Issued additional orders
covering the crossing , but scarcely a day
passes without some one reporting that he
barely escaped being run down by a passing
engine.
Those who are behind the scheme appear
to think that the county commissioners can
be induced to do something In the matter.
Six Tonuhrm Short.
It Is estimated that seventy teachers will
be needed when the public schools open
next month. Of this number sixty-four have
already been en-ployed and the balance of
the list will be made up at the flrst regular
meeting of the board in September. Super
intendent Munro has recommended that
three or four substitute teachers be em
ployed and this will most likely be done.
Provision will thus be made for any resigna
tions which might occur and also In cases
of sickness among the regular corps.
The new buildings are progressing rapidly
and Architect Davis is confident that these
structures will be ready for occupancy
when the schools open. The repair work at
the Hawthorne school la progressing nicely
and It3 is thought now that the trouble with
the beating and ventilating apparatus in
this building is over.
