nnd the match affairs the Grand circuit per
formers were kept busy until close to 8
o'clock.
The shower sprang up ns the horses were
called for the third heat of the Queen City
trotting stake , nnd It made the track heavy
nnd sticky. This stake was a hotly con
tested affair. At the start It looked like a
battle conllned to Surpol , the Electrlclly
horse , and the Village fawn's The Queen.
However , 'both Surpol and The. Queen fell
by the. wayside nnd the winner appeared
In Lord Vincent , who won n hard race very

VINEYARD HAVHN , Mase. , Aug. 10. Old
Denfender practically won a race agalnsl
Columbia today , If tlmo allowance were
given , In the dirtiest sort of weather for t
yacht club cruise , but the victory , it must
ibe admitted , was more than .well-earned and
the yadhtsmcn ot the Now York club and
their guests never saw before and may not
see again for years ouch a sailing event
The margin -between the famous sloops wac
14 seconds over a minute In the thirty-seven
mile run from Brentou'a reef lightship , ofl
Newport , to the West Chop buoy in Vine
yard sound , with a change In course nl
Vineyard sound lightship , seventeen and a
quarter miles from the start.
The race between Defender and Columbia
was fairly soul-stirring. After both getaway
away from the starting line It was nip and
tuck for almost an hour , Defender Just a
hairs-breadth , comparatively speaking , IB
the lead , "with Columbia abeam. Even aftci
Columbia made a gain , eo that Dcfendei
could cross under ( her stern , Columbia did
not walk away , as the heavy breeze hove
her doTrn. The fleet got away from Newport
with miserable weather prospects and rale
fell throughout the entire day and the south
erly'fifteenknotwind brought In a wring
ing wet mist from seaward.
Hulling Slilc by Side.
Defender crossed the line at 11:20:10 : : and
Columbia at 11:20:40. : : Columbia at once bore
down on Defender's -weather quarter , but
could not get by her and for fifteen miles
the 'boats called sldo 'by ' side. Just before
reaching the lightship both -boats set No. 1
Jlbtopsatls and three strong puffs knocked
both teats well down and Columbia waa
forced to luff each tlmo. From the lightship
to the finish , nearly 20 miles , the .boats ran
somewhat more oft the wind and Columbia
drew away .from . Defender , finishing one
m leu to and { our seconds ahead. Today's race
and the performance ot the Columbia was
satisfactory on the score of heavy weather.
It took all that came , and while it cased
up several times , that was no evidence that
It'would have too much of a good thing it a
stake were pending.
All the boats found the - weatherwas bois
terous enough for the tlmobeing and some
ot the schooners fairly flew through the
water. The sloop Vigilant , -which headed
the fleet , finished first , with Navahoo second
end , and then came the two 'big ' racers. All
the craft finished In a nasty squall which
made the turn at the West Chop buoy par
ticularly exhilarating for all hands.
Tomorrow'most of the boats will sail over
to Now Bedford , but the Columbia and De
fender will probably pass by Buzzard's Bay
nnd continue to Newport.

Everybody la their friend and nothing seems
to be too good for them. The body ot Col
onel Hawkins , who < was the gallant com
mander of the Tenth Pennsylvania , was
.escorted , to the wharf. A battalion ot the
Nebraska regiment , composed of twefro en
listed men of each , company , arranged into
four companies , commanded by Captains
Wilson , Ough , Gegncr and Moore , led by
Major J. N. Klllan , acted as en escort next
to the Ponncylvanlans. Colonel Mulford and
Lloutenant Colonel Eager were honorary pall
bearers. The funeral procession was ono of
the most Impressive ever witnessed on the
Pacific coast , everyone doing honor to the
dead hero who refused to leave his regiment
In the face of death. He was mourned by all
and -will bo remembered by many entire
strangers.
Many Nebraskans have been visiting sol

A good many others who formerly re
sided in Nebraska come dally to ace the boys.
The mustering-out process is a slow and
tedious ono , . yet the boys are quietly enjoy
ing themselves and begin to look more like
their former selves. They are riving in a
model camp and General Shatter is praised
very highly by the officers and men. He
Booms not only to do his best , but better
than any other commander ever has done ,
for it seems that the men are living on the
fat of the land and highly appreciate It. The
men have parade every evening , at which
ceremony many visitors are always present
to get a glimpse at the First Nebraska.

I'orch.
The right brcczo stirring over Cut Ofl
lake Thursday morning drove a email skin
to the bank near where a solitary fisher
man sat perched on the blufl with a lint
dangling In the water. The angler wfta M
Watts , a colored man employed as a watch
man at the Ico-packlng establishment o !
John Doc. From his place on the bank he
could keep an eye on the Ice house and fist
too , and eo Intently did Watts watch the
bright-colored bobber ot the fish line thai
, for a tow mlnutce ho did not observe the
skiff.
skiff.When
When finally 'tho old man caught eight ol
the boat the thought flashed across him thai
the crnft was ono In which ho had neen a
fellow fisherman nrnr the tr.ldJIo of the lake
a tow mlnuU-e before. Ho looked over the
Uko to nee If tha fisherman was ctfll there ,
but no ono wes In slg'at.
In the skiff thoio xvaa a coat throwu over
the sent , aonui fishing tackle , the renoauls
of a lunch and a frying pan , 71 WAS ovldeni
that the boat had recently had an occupant
and 'that some of the things left by him
were of value. Watta Immediately Jumped
at the conclusion that the man he had seen
In the boat a few mlnutce bcforo had fallen
overboard. To make euro that ho was not
around the lake , the colored man lot out sev
eral loud ycIU. The onry answer was the
echo and Watts ran to the Ice house telephone -
phone to notify the police.
The bluecoats detailed by Captain Her to
Investigate Watts' story found In the pockets
of the coat In the skiff some Important let
ters , in them was given the name of the
man who had ( been out In the boat. Some
of the policemen were left to drag the lake
with grappling hooks. The rest returned to
the station with the garment and letters.
Mlflnlnir CUnii Is Wanted.
When the police captains examined the
mlsalng man's effects and learned his name
It was discovered that ho was the very per
son for whom detectives had been seeking
for several days. About a week ago the
Chicago chief of police , telegraphed the
authorities hero to find a man named Edward
Lawrence , wanted In Chicago as -witness
In an important law eult. Detectives
searched , but were unable to find their man.
The letters taken from the pockets of the
coat In the skirt were directed to Edward
Lawrence and the postmarks indicated the
mailing place to be Chicago. In one of the
communications , signed by the missing man's
sister , reference was made to a law suit and
this bit ot ovldenco made It conclusive that
the owner of the coat was Edward Lawrence
wanted by the Chicago police.
The theory of the police was that Law
rence had learned of the hunt for him , and
for some reason being unwilling to return to
Chicago and appear in court , he had tried to
make it seem 'that he had either been acci
dentally drowned or had committed suicide.
The pollco thought It was a carefully pranned
ruse ; that Lawrence swam from the boat
to the bank opposite the place where the
colored man sat , purposely leaving 'behind '
just enough to reveal his identity.
Lawyers in the city had been commis
sioned "by " Chicago attorneys to find Law
rence. The pollco knew of this circumstance
and detectives -wore detailed to learn what
results their..efforts' secured. At the law
offlcea of Q.'Nelll & Girbert' It wasclearned
that Lawrence bad. 'been employed * by the
Nelson Morris Packing company of St.
Joseph and by Swift and Company of South
Omaha , but he left the latter place last week.
Policemen Draff the Lake.
The colored fisherman , Watts , was positive
that Lawrence could not have reached the
bank by swimming , because of the distance
and the weeds. Acting on this assurance
the pollco put an extra force of men at work
dragging the lake. In the meantime re
porters canvassing South Omaha to find Law
rence's dwelling place learned that ho bad
lived at the Clifton house , near Twenty-
seventh and Q streets.
When the hotel was visited a man was
found sitting on the front veranda with his
chair tilted back against the wall , In
quiries about Lawrence were made ot him
and the mysterious disappearance was ex
plained. The man's reply threw considera
ble light on the subject. Ho said : "I was
fishing at Cut Off lake yesterday and some
body store my skirt containing my coat and
fishing tackle. I had to come homo'wlthout
them. My name is Lawrence and 'I ' guess I
must bo the man the Chicago people want.
That darky must have been drinking , be
cause ho never saw me there today , and If
I can get my coat and letters at the pollco
station I'll go up there after them. "

"Never mind your watch , " ho continued.
"We < haven't time for that , and it Isn't worth

.AMUSEMENTS.
Commenting this week the Woodward
Slock company Is Ihauguratlng the plan of A
changing Us bill twice Instead of onca
each week. I/iat evening Alexander Dumas'
"Camlllo" displaced "Captain llackctt , "
with which the week was opened. Of the
great number of old plays that have been
and nro 'being Revived by stock companle.1
there arc , perhaps , none other so popular
as this romantic tale ot love and sacrifice *
eo 'well put together that , like the works
of Shakespeare , It can hardly help going
down to posterity AS ono of the standard
plays , ranking alongside the very best that
have been written during the last few cen
turies. Its dramatic situations arc so strong ,
Us very llnee eo Interesting that , like "Un
cle Tom's Cabin , " no matter how old It
grows there are always people who are yet
anxious to sco it. While the effect ot Imv-
Ing to put on a play with a matter ot only
three days' preparation was plainly notice
able in last evening's performance , yet
when ono considers this fact the perform
ance can truthfully bo said to have been a ,
remarkably good one. Mr. Granger nnd
( Miss Konnnrk were the ones to carry oft
the honors of the evening , the former In
the part ot Armand Duval and the latter
ns Camlllc. Mr. Granger was certainly at
his best last evening and gave an excel
lent interpretation of this particularly dif
ficult role. In fact his work In this part
Is far and away above anything ho him dona
hero during his engagement , and this Is saying -
ing considerable , as ho has filled somu
strong parts. There was none of that stiff
ness of bearing that has been so notlceabla
In others of his .Interpretations. Miss Ken-
nark Is deserving of qulto as much pralso
ns Mr , Granger. Camlllo. Is ono of hca
best characters nnd she always portray
It with A convincing force that brings It out
most brilliantly. In her strong emotional
scones with Armand she had last evening's
audience completely at her mercy and played ,
upon their feelings with an oftectlvenessl
that made everyone forget the hot weather ,
drop their fans and devote their time to
keeping their eyes dry. Mr. Enos as M. D.uval I
handled his part In his usual praiseworthy
manner. Miss Berkeley aa Madame Prudence -
donco gives a character Impersonation that
la made noticeable in many ways , which , .
however , Is characteristic with her in whatever - I
over she has t'o do. Walter Greene niakcsj
