LINCOLN. ' .May 13. ( Special. ) This table
announces In short motor that the sturdy
athletic prowess of the Lincoln High school
carried off the first championship of the
Nebraska Intcrecholnstlc Athletic associa
tion and the 'banner ' that la emblematic of
It at the Initial Held meat of the associa
tion held on the university campus today.
It also tells that the Omaha High school
lads gave these Lincoln boys the hardest
kind of a run for the coveted flag ,
Au Idcnl 1'luht.
U was an Ideal fight. The representa
tives of the seven high schools that took
part In It were on hand for business , and
especially those of Omaha and Lincoln. It
was nip and tuck .between . the two latter
teams , with Crcto coming close behind from
the first crack of the pistol until the tape
was broken by the mile relay runners In the
last event on the card. In fact , It may be
said that thcchamplonshtp was fought out
on the last few Tcct of this last event , for
If Omaha had won the relay race , , with
Lincoln second , 'the ' Omaha team would Imvo
won the championship by a margin of one
point. But the goddess of fortuuo and the
sturdy nether limbs and stout hearts of the
Lincoln boys willed otherwise , and that la
why the pennant Is proudly floating over the
capital city tonight.
A hundred or more of girls and boys who
wear Iho purple nnd whlto of the Omaha
Institution watched the gallant defeat of j 1
their team. They swooped down upon the
city this morning , plentifully decorated with .
their colors and bubbling over with pa- I
trlotlsm that found vent through yells and
cheers and megaphones. They floated about '
the town In the morning or were gathered j |
within the sheltering walls of the Phi Delta | I
society , the Omaha members of which held | '
open house for them all day ; In the afternoon - i .
noon they pre-empted a section of the I
bleachers and Indulged In the usual good-
natured crossfire with a bis Lincoln High
school crowd that was as noisy and aggres
sive ns they were.
The meet lasted from early in the morn
ing until late at night , and interspersed
among Its numbers were also the events
that made up the annual field meet of the
university track men. A very plentiful and
a very interesting program .was offered dur
ing the day , nnd , ns in the case of the
small boy at the three-ring circus , the
spectator fortunate enough to be on hand
wished that ho had been born with a pair
of wings , or , ns long as ho was wishing , a
set'of triplets.
Clone Content.
It was only after the tightest sort of a
struggle that the championship was decided.
It was plain to bo seen at any moment from
the hour that 'the ' first preliminary was
called until the final event was run. off that
deep red gore occupied more than its usual
portion of space in the opticsof the deep-
chested nnd strong limbed representatives
of the Lincoln and Omaha High schools nnd
that neither would be able to call the pen
nant theirs until they knew they had been
In a fight. But the youngsters and this may
also bo said for the university lads never
forgot to be gentlemen and the games were
consequently run off without the slightest
friction or bickering.
The scores made by the High school boys
In nil the events especially when It is con
sidered that thlswas _ the first time 'they '
have over engaged in so extensive a compe
tition were exceptionally good. The 115-
foot throw of the twelve-pound hammer In
the preliminaries by Tobln o Lincoln , the
mile In 5:11 : 3-5 by lame Lehmer , the 220
hurdles In :30 : 1-5 by DePutren of Lincoln ,
the nine-foot polo vault by Painter of Omaah
all of these wore performances that the
lads could be proud of under all the circum
stances. A raw wind that sets one's knees
to chattering in rag time nnd makes one's
chest and lungs inclined to nfllllato with
pneumonia germs is not usually calculated
to result in good marks on the cinder path ,
but the boys made them in all the events
even though they stood around a good part
of tlmo in this sort of atmosphere attired
In the usual track costume abbreviated at
both ends.
I'iilntt > r'H ( iooil AVork.
Captain Earl Painter of the Omaha team
did giant's work for his band by winning a
first and dividing two others , thereby gainIng -
Ing ten points for Omaha , ilo attempted to
throw the championship lu Omaha's direc
tion by winning the polo vault. This was
next to the last event on the program and
when the finals In it wcro called the score
was n point or BO in Lincoln's favor. The
struggle was the most Intensely exciting of
the day. Johnson of Lincoln , who is built
on burly plans and specifications , was a
stubborn contestant that hung on with bull
dog persistency. Ho failed In two trials to
clear the bar at S feet 3 Inches and passed ,
but after that ho loomed up with unpleasant
prominence. When , after a final desperate
effort , he failed 'to ' clear 8 feet 9 nnd Painter
Immediately after floated over the 9-foot ,
pandemonium broke loose from the Omaha
bleachers.
One of the other features of the meet was
the good throw of the twelve-pound hammer
by Toblu , the Lincoln 'boj ' , lanky nnd big-
boned , who would not bo taken ns capable
of doing It , but ho did It with ease and left
the circle with OB mush nonchalance as It
ho had plenty more up his sleeve if It was
needed , Lehmer made a very pretty run In
the mile , although ho was handicapped by a
sprained tendon , sustained in the high
jumps. All the runs and sprints were pretty
and one of the prettiest of all was the tlo
.between Painter and IroUnd , the lalter of
Lincoln , In the 100 yards. It was nip and
tuck between them from the scratch nnd
their breasts seemed to strike the tape at
the same time.

FIELD DAY AT THU UXIVUIISITY.
AViillncc Thrown the DlHuun Three
Feet Further Thnu Stale Ileciiril.
The games of ttio unlverslly boys formed
Iho usual spring funcllon for Iho track team
and while they occupied a secondary position
In comparison with the competitions of the
High school lads , they wore very interesting
nnd a decided Improvement upon the events
of last Snturday's dual meet with the ath-
lellc rcpresenlattvcs of Kansas university.
No world's records were broken , but some
of the stale marks came within an ace or
being shivered in the course of the after
noon and a couple were smashed.
The closest approach to the breaking of
n world's record and the actual establish
ment of a new state record was made in the
discus throwing by Wallace. Ho hurtled
the Grecian disk n distance of 100 feet nine
Inches , which is nearly Ihreo feet more
than any Nebraskan has ever been able to
do before. The throw also surpassed th'e
record made by Garretl , the Prlncctonian ,
when ho won the event in the Olympic games
In Athens several years ago. The mark la
under what it has been done In competition
since , but it Elands dead and shoulders
above anything that has ever been done in
Iho west before.
Second to this performance was the run
ning of R. D. Andresen. He made the 100-
yards in :102-5 : and , better slill , covered
the 220 In :23 : 2-5. This Is flitting It at a
remarkably fast clip in view of the unfavor
able weather conditions that prevailed and
; Iho Icy rawness of the atmosphere. In the
former event Andresen wns not pUElied ns
hard'as ho might have been by the other
entries In the race and In the latter ho went
' against the record , being paced Ihroughout
| the s'lretch. Andresen also did a quarler In
Iho very nice tlmo of :52 : 2-5 ,
With one or two exceptions the rest of
the marks made were creditable , especially
as the athleles hardly exerted themselves as
much as they would have done had they
been pitied against some collegiate oppon
ents. All the first and seconds In tne
games will bo sent to the Nebraska Intercollegiate -
collegiate meet which takes place in Crete.
The big majority of them will in all prob-
ablllly also represent the university at the
dual meet with Iowa unlverslly , which Is
scheduled lo take place at Iowa City next
Friday.

The cases against S. C. Hurlinglm of
Seward nnd John Johns of Mlltord were
brought up In police court Friday nnd were
continued until yesterday when the hear
ing was completed. Judge Uabcock held
that there was probable guilt established
nt ( ho preliminary hearing and ho bound
the defendants 'over to the district court
for further examination. The bonds In each
caao being fixed nt Jl.OOO. These men are
held on the charges of aiding nnd nhclllng
n forgery , uttering forged Inplruincnts and
being nccessorlcs to the fame.
This IB ( ho case wherein Hurllnglm nnd
Johns were Implicated In a deal lo "do"
certain South Omnhn real estate men on
the representation that Johns was Peter
Duller of lown. Johns worked his game to
perfection nnd managed to confidence n
number of real estate men out of small
sums of money. Judge Lowley of Seward
expects to secure bands by ( he end of the
week nnd to pass Iho tlmo In Iho Interim
Mr. Hurlinglm has ordered Thu Boo sent
to the counly Jail.
After the examination Chief Carroll took
both Johns and Burllnglin to the county
jail for safe keeping. Johns Is Inclined to
feel despondent to think that his friends
have deserted him nnd will not make an at
tempt to sccuro bonds for his release. Ho
Is Iho principal witness , and with
out his evidence Burllngim cannot bo
convicted. In spilo of this fact , Burllngim
and his attorney , Judge Ixjwley , have not
made nny ntlempt to secure bonds for Iho
old man. It Is thought that the trial of
Iho case will bo delayed for some lime , and
If this Is Iho case some months will elapse
before the final hearing will be called in
the district court.

Otto Muurer proposes keeping his res
taurant open today whether the police au
thorities llko It or not. If Maurcr is ar
rested a dozen men stand willing to go on
his bond. If the nctlng mnyor lakes It
upon himself lo order Maurer's or nny olher
restaurant closed thcro will bo the hottest
legal fight put up in the history of the
city. These men who propose lo keep eat
ing houses open assert that certain favored
saloons are permitted to run nnd they pro
pose making a test case of the law in the
district court. A man named Johnson , who
pretends to bo on the police force , is ex
pected to make n report to his boss every
now nnd then , .but . when the tlmo comes
Johnson's pay will bo slopped nnd .tho city
clerk will not 'bo ' allowed to Issue a war
rant for the pay Johnson Is entitled to. If
ho follows certain orders and writes the war
rants ho will be compelled by an order
of the court to mark the warrant void , ns
certain taxpayers who have watched the
course of Johnson do not approve of the
same and propose to sccuro an Injunction
in order to protect the city. Captain Allle
nnd Officer 'Morrison ' , who nro repuled lo bo
Iho solo supporters of Johnson , nssertcd
last night that if the city docs nol pay
Johnson Ihoy will. It was also stated by a
police ofilcer that Johnson has already sold
his pay ut a discount and can therefore
lose nothing.

In connection with Iho paving of M , from
Twenly-fourlh to Twenty-fifth street , it has
been stated that some councllmen are in
favor of the city assuming the indebtedness
which would naturally fall to the govern
ment. AB was stated In The Bee a few days
ago , Congressman Mercer wrote to friends
hero that the government never purchased
pavement and that it felt that It had done
Its duty when it creeled a fine building and
surrounded it with a permanent sidewalk.
It is roughly estimated that the government's
proportion of the cost of the pavement would
amount to $800. This amount the city will
bo asked to assume and it is thought that
there will bo no dlfllculty In securing Iho
majorlly of Iho councllmen lo vole for Iho
proposlllon. In case the mayor or acting
mayor vetoed n resolution of this kind it
would probably be made ono of the Issues
at the next election. Residents on the street
insist that it must bt > paved regardless of
the government's refusal to sign the peti
tion.

Have you ever tried Mcoll ?
Do you know how fair our prices are ?
Think of the advantage of having your gar
ments cut to your order.
There was a time when price was the
obstructing barrier between ready-made and
madc-to-ordcr garments ; but not so now !
There's no need paying 840 to 860 for a
Suit ! There's no need of paying 812 to 818
for Trousers !
We want you to know that we cater to
the careful and economical dressers. We want you to know that
Nicoll's business is conducted on a strictly cash basis a large trade
and a small profit.
We make garments to order for as little as 815 , 818 and 820 for
Suits and H and * 5 for Trousers , and the assortment at those prices
isn't stingy or mean.
At $25 , § 30 and * 35 we oftcr you choice of the best foreign fab
rics , and the tailoring and workmanship is in keeping witli the
material.
Sec the goods and prices in our window. They are an index
of what you'll find in the store.
