Ho who has the piscatorial art at hli
fingers' ends will scon bo In glory to his
nc k , for the warm days with which 0. Sol
la supplying thla muntlano sphere at the
present tlmo will noon isrt these game old
fish bans and crapplc nibbling at the lures
that are cast out for them In fact , the
crapplo season may be said lo bo well along
already , for good misses of them are being
pulled out of the resorts all about this sec
tion of the country. The water Is still ft
bit too chill for the bass and. bcaldcs , the
latter are yet ft little too busy at their
spawning to loiter about the places where
the Iraak Walton throwH his minnow , or
worm , nr doughball
Reports from the lakes ami rivers In the
vicinity of this city are encouraging. At
Lake Qtllnncbaug Home great jams uro be
Ing Incubated I'rrd Uoodrlch last week ro
cclved word that a party pulled 150 pounds
of the fish out of the lake and hn straight
way departed for the sheet of water. At
Langdon the fishing ban been confined almost
entirely to crapplc , It being said that not a
fltrlko of bass has been made so far this
season The Iowa lakes are jot n somewhat
unknown fiunntlly , but they will .soon be un-
covcitd , .IB the closed season expires tomor
row. Some fe.ir Is c\prcs od regarding No
blo'a lake. The lake was chuck full of llsh
ft couple of months ago and they wore great
big ones at that. Ono fisherman tried an
experiment and captured n hilf n Uorcn
weighing twice tint many pounds at that
time , but thu river rise may have dam
aged the lake. The big Miroo forced an
entrance Into the 1 iKo and , as tfie bass will
fight against the current at this season of
the icar and will not drift with It , U Is
feared that more of the llsh escaped out
of the lake than wan carried Into It. Other
lakes and streams hi-rcnbouts. honcvo.r ,
have not been bothered HKo this In fact
the tlse In the artorlul streams scorns to
hive been Just aufllrlpnt to Hush the Inlets
and permit the bass and orapplo to got
to spawning places
Unless all Indications are a delusion and
C a disappointment , Cut Off Hko will bo a fine
fishing place this season Uass arc alrc.uly
striking and during the hst week some nlco
spoclmciits have bcon pulled out. Wnlton-
lans , however , will not find much sport
with them Just now with minnows and
OoiighballH , us their fastidious appetites
teem to crave nothing but woims. The llsli
nio now looking for spawning bids and feed
on this sort of food It Is said that at Borne
of the re-sorts both bass and crapplo are
taking small sunflsh better than any other
bait offered , a rather unusual caprko At
Lingdon bnskotfuls of crapplo are being
taken with minnow and the flbh do not seem
to care much for other bait.
riHhlng for babs and for crapplcs , too ,
for that matter Just now Is a dlffeient
pioposltlon than what It will be several
weeks from now. The llsh are not loafing
about the middle of the lake and the ( Hties- .
man who shoves out Into the wind and the
waves Is likely to catch nothing but dis
appointment and poffllbly a cold. The fish
are after food and possible spawning placci ,
both of which they find Insboro and but .1
few Inches Jicncath the suifaco of the water.
Crupplrs will bo found In the wilderness ot
the brush , but bns-s do not llko the tangle-
wood so well. 1'iieh In noiselessly and drop
n yaid or two ot line with a heavy sinker
and a cork but a dozen Indies or so above
It. That Is the trick that will result In nice
mci-scs of fish now ; In the weeks lo come
when the hot HUH will drive them to deeper
watet and to their resting place under
sunken logs a different plan of campaign
inuet bo employed. A boat oven Is not nee-
cssary at this season of the jcnr , for ont >
can wade Into the lake or stieam far enough ,
If ho Is quiet , to get many a strike before Ills
fishing hours are gone.
According to reports that are coming In a
Wiiltonlan can secure a nice mess of trout by
taking an excursion to tonic point along HID
iikhorn in the vicinity of Long Pine. Walt
nlngham , Iho sporty president of the city
council , confirms these reports. Ho was
up on the nikhorn In that part of the fltnte
n few wcoks ago and captured a string ot
beauties.
Judge Dickinson was at Lake Qulnnebaug
last week and returned with a banket ot
ulxty-ono bass.
Jim Weaver and Wiseman look nn excur
sion lo Irvlngton last week and managed to
bug a couple of dozen jellowlcgs and cast
eyes on n pair of Jacks. 1'lcld shooting ,
however , has reached a low ebb and Ihe
sportsman with n gun wilt receive but little
toward for a tramp over the prairies untlt
next fall.
The biggest shoot In the west and ono of
thu biggest of the country will take place
at St. Louis during the coming week under
the auspices of tha Missouri State Game and
Hsu Protective association. The program
calls for six da > s nt the traps , commencing
tomorrow. Monday will bo devoted to state
events and the remaining five diys will bo
turned over to open events , In which all the
wracks of Iho country are entered called
together by the cups and emblems and the
$ l.r ! > 00 added money that Is offered for the
winners. The t\\o big features of the shoot
will bo the struggles for tbo Dupont cham
pionship the bird trophy and the St. Louis
lepubllc cup. Doth these arc handicap races

Iho nucleus of a fund lo be spent on the
erecllon of a monument to the memory cf

during Iho Spanish and Philippine wars The
dale for the engagement has not yet been
set , but It has been decided to hold the shoot

was occupied by the Wild West show at
last sear's exposition. A considerable addi
tion will be made to Iho program , In the
Shape of a match shoot between the Dupont

challenged the latter to a ten-man team race
at fifty targets per man , which the other
club Is gelling ready to accepl.

King events arc not the only ones that arc
r.ttcndcd with fatal results occasionally , but ,
llko deploiablc cndlnga of glove battles , the
Ecrloim endings on base ball fields are gen
erally the result of accidents , pure ami
pimple. This year Iho first fntallly on n
ball fit Id was nol an accident , and It was
neir Illnnlngham , Ala , that It occurred.
Two teams of joung men WCTO playing-
when the umpire called ft home run lilt a
foul ball. A youngster named McCoy hit the
ball and he roundly abused Umpire Powell
until the latter knocked the plujer down.
McCoy promplly Jumped lo his feet , sclrcrt
a bat and crushed Powell's skull , death
bring Instantaneous. McCoy made his es
cape , and has the officials and tlio dead
boy's friends to dodge , as southern Justice
will bo meted out lo him if he Is caught.
The Now York pipers have resorted to
Uio unklndest method of roasting the New
York team by prnctlcilly Ignoring their
performances "When they roast jou , cull ,
they recogni/o jou , but when they pass you
up jou'ie woiso Ulan a deuce , " would bo
Dad Clark's axiom apropos the slluallon.
Last season the base ball chroniclers spent ,
columns ot space In damning Ihe Giants , but
this > car's scheme seems to bo the beller ,
Judging from Iho number of hands who lurn
out lo witness the game.
Local fans will bo Interested In learning
that Buffalo , which Is the Indirect successor
of Omaha on Iho Wcslern League circuit ,
has a cinch In winning the pennant this year
according to the dope book. The Buffalo
outfit up to date have n better team fielding
mark than any of the clubs In the league
and In batting rank also in the first class.
The fielding average Is .940 and tha batting
.252.
.252.Tho
The Fltz-Jeffrlos battleIs still occupying
a. position somewhat akin to that once upon
a time held by Mahomet's coffin , nllhough
Denver sports are going ahead as If the
Colorado city had a cinch on It. During
the past week the Colorado Athletic asso
ciation has signed articles of agreement and
sent them to Brady and Julian In expecta
tion of having these fighting nabobs attach
their autographs to the document , even
though the Lenox , Tom O'Rourko's club , Is
said to bo lajlng Its wires for the scrap.
Eastern papers seem to bo of the opinion
that the battle will take place In Denver ,
though , and the Denvcrltes have not the
slightest doubt about It. While no actual
work has jot been begun on an arena , the
club is already selecting the ground and
training quarters for the two big blffers.
Tor both the Boilermaker nnd the black
smith nro expected to Immediately move
their effects to the mounlalns It Denver Is
chosen , In order to Tjeccjme acclimated. How
well grounded opinion has become lhat the
battle will bo held In the Colorado metropo
lis Is indlcaled by the fact that Dan Stuart ,
the well known flRtit promoter nnd all around
sport , has set out from Dallas by the over
land route for Denver In company with a
half dozen sports. It Is a trip ot 1,200
miles , but with playing poker and riding
bronchos the bunch ot dead games expect
to have a good time.
Now that there Is a prospect that New
York will lose the battle between Uio boilermaker -
maker nnd the blacksmith , tbo fight promoters
meters of Gotham are figuring on a meeting
between Maher and Slwrkoy on the strenglh
of Ihe former's showing vvllh Iluhlln. Even
though the Akron Giant succumbed to the
sailor In a punch , It Is no cinch that Maher
will do likewise. In Juno , 1837 , the Irish
champion and the navy lad fought seven
rounds In Now York nnd were finally pried
apart by the copper's bludgeon , because the
minions of the law decided that the roughIng -
Ing had gone far enough. Hoth men have
slnco inslsled that they had the best of It ,
and whllo Maher has been accused of dodg
ing matches with some of the others , ho
has been apparently sincere In his deulro
to get another crack at Sharkey. The vic
tory accrodlted to Sharlcey over Rublln
proves nothing , and it's n cinch that Maher
would give the Jack tar a run for his money
If he succeeds In displaying as much game-
nets with him as he did with Hublln ,
For judging from the comment * made on
the IluMlniMaher scrap by all the promi
nent fighter writers of the east , the go was
the best between n pair ot heavies that
has been pulled off for n long whllo. It
was a biff-bang affair , besprinkled wlt'i '
gameness , that delighted the spectators nnd
set them wildt Old Pete 'Mahor ' , who waa
t
popularly ouppcWd to possess a streak of
yellow eufllclcnt to stock n tralnload cf or
anges , surprised the talcnl vvllh the avidity
with which he gcbblcd Iho punishment that
was doled out to him by the Swiss fighter.
The New York Journal man comments as
follows upon the battle
Malier took more punishment than any
heavyweight ever did since men have fought
with five-ounce gloves He wo simply
beaten lo one blue bruise from chin lo
balr. But ho never for an Instant weakened
Ho fought In spile of tl nnd proved himself
as game a man as ever lived Huhlln look
his punishment wllh ( lie same disregard
that has marked his previous fights. He Is
n better man than It waa Ihoughl , , and cer
tainly has n right to consideration There
are two or three thlngn ho should learn ,
however , nnd the first Is to hit with the
right hand Another Is that n moving object
cannot bo hit fair from nn angle unless ono
alms a trlllo In front of It Further ho
hns a habit of alwavs standing straight when
ho Intends using the right , n trick that
thoroughly bctioyed his Intenllon Taken
nil In all , however , Huhlln Is n pretty good
heavyweight. Ho Is Interesting and from
this fight on will certainly bo a drawing
card. "
Just at the eeason of the 5ear when the
enthusiast on sporting matters U turning
his attention tn the ball players and the
horses the lighting game Is taking a decided
brace nnd there Is fully ns much nctlvlly ,
wllh much more promised In the near future ,
lhan there AVHS In the winter months , The
late iMahcr-Huhlln battle , the coming meet
ing between ritzslmmons nnd Jeffries , a
bout between Dlxon nnd White on the first
of next month , form n most excellent card.
To this siring of notable bailies another
topnolcher Is added. Tommy Hyan nnd
Mjstcrlous Hilly Smith , who have clashed
before , nro both looking for moro trouble
ns a result of their fight of four years ago ,
when ft most unsatisfactory ending occurrol.
But for police Intcrfeience Smith had a
good chnnco for Iho decision , and , nttcr
giving Ilynn llmo to recuperalo , the bout
was resumed nnd In the olghteonlh round It
was stopped and declared a draw , Smith beIng -
Ing In distress. Smith Is better than ever
at the present tlmo and at the weight named
147 poundw will make it Interesting for
the clever ono from Syracuse on Juno 9 , for
they nro to meet before the Broadway Ath
letic club of New York on lhat date for a
$3r > 00 purse.
George McPaddcn , the clever newcomer to
Iho lightweight division , again gave proof
the other night of being of the timber that
will place him In the front rank ot the class.
Following up his defeat of Joe Gans , ho lost
Tuesday night took on Prank Erne , and
while he gave up tbo decision to the Buffalo
lad on points , ho stajcd loathe end of the
twonty-fivo rounds of the Journey nnd was
strong at the wlndup.
Bobby Dobbs , the colored welterweight ,
writes from England lhat ho Is Instructing
the aspiring English joulh in the art of
eclf-defensc , although he will iclurn to
America In the event that some club would
make U an object for him to meet Mysterl us
Billy Smith. The mysterious ono Is equally
partial to n "go" with Dobbs , and If
O'Hourko will make the proper Inducements
Bobby and Smith may be seen In a fight at
the Lenox club within the next two months.
"My pet ambition Is to get on a match
with this much-advertised Ben Jordan ,
whip him , then wallop Pcddlar Palmer , re
turn to America and rotlro from the ring , "
writes Oscar , alias Kid , Gardner to a friend.
"I am sick ot the bluffs that these so-called
English champions are making. I know
can beat Palmer , and am enough stuck on
myself to bcllovo tbat I can beat Joidan. "

On last Thursday the Jvarslty base ball
team left Lincoln for the longest bprlng
trip in the history of the university. The
lour will cover a period of tlmo of sixteen
days and In the neighborhood of a dozen
games will bo played. The team will go as
far east ns Indiana and Wisconsin. The
schedule Includes the following games :
Manhattan , Kan. , St. Mary's , Washburn col
lege nt Topcka , Kansas university , Missouri
unlverslly , Noire Dame , Bloomlnglon , Ind. ,
Greencastlo , Ind. , Madison , Wls. , Iowa uni
versity at Iowa City and possibly n game
with some local team In Omaha on the way
home. Captain Hceder has n bunch ot base
balllsts who should return to the unlveislty
with a goodly string of victories , although
the team has not yet had much opportunity
to display Its mettle. Very few games
have as yet been played , but of thcso all
have bcon victories except that with Kan
sas university. Bliss' wlldncss In Iho box
was In good measure responsible for the
defeat. Both the out and the Infield seem
to bo well balanced.
The track team of the college Is also to go
abroad In search of glory and honor , as It
will engage In a dual meet with Iowa State
university at Iowa City on next Friday.
It , too , has excellent chances of success
It was not called upon to do Its best work

The revival ot Tom Daly was one of the
greatest feats In base ball reproductions
ever accomplished nnd the story of the base
ball life of this veteran Is one of the ro
mances of the national game. Ten years
ago , or the spring after tlio return from
Europe of the Spaldlng globe-lrollers , Daly
was given a llcket ot leave from the Chicago
cage club nnd was on n hunt for a Job un
til Ibe season of 'S1) ) was halt over , when
ho was signed by Arthur Iiwln for thu
Washington team. Dalv's calching Ihnt
season surpassed the work of any of the
major league pad artists , barring , perhapi ,
Buck Ewlng Tom was signed for the fol
lowing vear by the Brooklyn league club
nnd nttn ( ( ed his aulograph lo n $4,000 coi
tiact _ tils arm weakened and Brooklyn
finally released him to Milwaukee. This
downfall of Tom's was regarded as his final
passing , but ho has taken unto himself .t
now Icaso of base ball life and ns seconc
bagman for Hanlon's Brooklyn team this
year ho la ono ot the filellar altractlons of
lhat company. Tom scurries around his ler-
rllory with hand , head and feet nnd has
played faster , steadier bill than any other
second baseman In the big league.
"The dry , rarefied atmosphere of Denver
helped us to win eighteen straight games of
ball when I played on Dave Howe's Denver
team In the Western association Ihree years
ago , " oald Billy Single lo the Washington
Post man. "Our team started the season nt
Omaha and wo were transferred to Denver.
The atmosphere had a peculiar , stifling ef
fect on our wind when first wo struck the
lown , but after a week or so we got accus
tomed to the dry zephyrs and won a largo
string of games from the \lsltois. The at-
mcpphere handicapped the other teams , es
pecially in base running , I have seen play
ers fall breathless on ft base after running
to second on a steal or a two-bagger. Fly
balls were harder to judge In the high moun
tain air of Denver and during our flrut few
games I managed to stop a number of flies
with my face. That Denverralr seems to
lend wings to the brfl. I know the ball ho *
moro carrying power in the Colorado air. I
misjudged so many fly balls that I vva
ashamed of myself till Dave Howe explained
that I would get accustomed to the climate
after awhile. The outfielders on the other
teams made n record of muffing fly balld.
Wo were given credit for winning many a
game by the newspapers In the Western as
sociation and wore looked upon throughout
the circuit as the fastest team In Iho organi
zation. The Denver climate did It. "
