DUUUQUK , la. , Aug. 30. Tommy Whlto
got the decision over Henry Lyons ( colored )
of Chicago at the end of a twenty-round
bout hero tonight. They fought for the 120-
] K > und championship. Lyons put up a good
light , but began to weaken In the lust
round , and Wililto landed almost at will.
Neither man appeared to possess much
power. They hugged continually from start
until llniBh. Hitting with ono arm ftee
was allowed and they pummelled each other
every time they clinched. The decision , did
not meet with the entire approval of tlio
audience , owing to the good showing Lyons
mmle In the first fifteen rounds. ,
In the preliminary bout between 'Lewis
and Kenny for thu lightweight champion
ship of the west Lewis was all but out
several times. In the seventh ho was going
and Kenney was given the decision and the
entire purse on Uoferee Siler's decision that
Lewis deliberately fouled to save himself
u knockout.

event of the grnnd circuit mooting at
Charter Ooak park today was the first two-
mlnuto pace ever scheduled. There were
five starters , John II. Gentry drawing out
after n contest In which there was a dispute
between the park management and the
owner of the horso. The trouble arose over
a misunderstanding as to the race being n
three In flvo or a two In three race. The
race was three In flvo and Gentry was drawn ,
the management protested , leaving the matter -
tor In the hands of the. judges. The start
ers were Joe Patchon , Anaconda , Chchalla ,
Prank llogash and Searchlight. Searchlight
was very unsteady , breaking badly and had
never any hope of winning a hoat.-
Anaconda. the favorite , 100 to C5 for
Patohen , 50 for Searchlight , led until the
stretch In the first heat , when Joe I'atchen
came In under the whip and with a hard
push took the mlle iu 2:04 : % . The second
heat was I'atchen's all the way and the
Unal heat , which took the race , In 2:03i :
equaled the track record made In 18D7 by
Star Pointer lu an exhibition race with
Gontry.
There was the greatest enthusiasm. After
the flrst heat Joe Patchen sold 3 to 1 , with
Bogosh 4 to 3 that ho would get Inside the
money. The unfinished race of Tuesday , tha
2:13 : trot , was won by Peter the Great. His
fastest mlle , 2:08 % , has been equaled only

Cornelia Dello took second money , Dainty
Daffo third and Escobar fourth. The flret
was the fastest of the three heats , 2:11 % , and
Ktngniond took all three heats , hands down.
In the first Cornelia Belle , the pole horse ,
gave Klngmond a rather stiff argument ,
! | coming up the stretch , but was uuablo to
' keep up the spurt and fell back to second
| place. In the second heat the Jones entry
acted badly and broke twlco before reaching
, the quarter , but after that she closed up
i a gap of twenty-fivo lengths on Cornelia
i Belle and won by a short head. The third
heat was easy for Klngmond from the quar
ter polo on. Dainty Daffo and Escobar had
a stiff brush in the stretch. Daffo held her
own , however , and finished second by a
short head.
The second event on the card , the 2:33' : '
pace , took six heats to decide. Dan Patchen ,
owned by C. T. Hancock of Dubuque ,
finally landed first money , winning fourth ,
fifth and sixth heats , while the favorite ,
Armada Prince , had to be content with second
end money after taking down the second
and third heats. Minnie Slmmcns , who
took the first heat , was out of the running
j after that , being distanced - n the second.
I The sixth heat had only' two starters ,
Patchen and Armada Prince , the other two
being ruled out for not having woo a heat
out of five. Patchen led all the way and
I won by twenty lengths.
The third event , a 2:07 : pace , saw the
fastest time of the meeting. Four heats
were run , Sally Toler taking two , Giles

heat was run In 2:05'/i. : The time of Giles
Noyes In this heat was :30 % , 1:01 : % , l:33'/i : ,

the start and kept a lead of less than half
a length from that on. Coming around the
last turn the field was bunched , heads apart ,
and they finished In that position.
Darkness caused the postponement of the
deciding heat.

Attempted Suicide.
Willie Martin , a young woman from Nel
son , Neb. , attempted to commit suicide at
her room In the Arlington hotel yesterday
afternoon , by swallowing carbolic add.
Shortly after she had taken the poisonous
lotion her roommate , Pearl Vance , an em
ployee at the Nebraska Music hall , entered
the room and found Miss Martin writhing
In agony. Doctors Porter and Connell wtro
Immediately summoned and succeeded In
having the girl throw from her system the
acid. They were Inclined to the belief that
she had not swallowed very much of the
drug. Written on a card found on the
dresser were the words , "All for the love
of Fred. Good-bye , " and from this the
reason of the attempt at tulchlo was be
lieved to bo despondency over the lack of

Wednesday was FHrst Nebraska day at the
exposition , and It attracted to the grounds
In the afternoon nnd evening n very large
attendance. Excursions on several of the
railroads brought large numbers of visitors ,
who came to take advantage of the double
opportunity to BCO the boys of the First
and to enjoy the exposition.
There never was n more popular figure on
the exposition grounds than that ot the re
turned First Nebrnskan. Ills blue uniform
was the open scsamo to everything from
the entrance gates to each and every show-
on the Midway , and ho was unwilling to in Is a
n sluglo thing. With the good-natured fa
miliarity among strangers that prevails more
or less all over the exposition and dccldely
moro on the Midway the civilians got ac
quainted with the soldiers and In kindly
greetings and a hundred other little ways
evinced the esteem In which they held them.
To the larger number of the boys the expo
sition was an entirely now thing and they
were Intensely curious In regard to what
sort of a public enterprise had been carried
on In their absence. Whllo n few hours Is
ns long a time as the ordinary Omahnn
car"s to spe-Hl nt tin. exposition at om vl3ii ,
the afternoon and evening combined wcro
entirely too brief to satisfy the average
soldier visitor.
In the evening the crowd was the greatest ,
attracted by the concert and the fireworks.
The aquatic sports were not given , as It
was feared that owing to the great crowd
the spectators might bo pushed into the
Ingoon.
WoJncsday was children's day also and
they came out In large numbers In the after
noon to enjoy the concert arranged espe
cially for them. The children are ( .cuing
to bo thb most regular nnd the most appre
ciative of the exposition frequenters.

And everything belonged to the soldier
boys yesterday. They went everywhere and.
were received with or en arms nnd where
they went the crowd went. That is why so
many of the Midway concessionaires are
wearing smiles today ; it was the flret big
day they have had. The battle of Missionary
Kldgc gathered in a big percentage of the
sightseers. These are war times and this
panorama is of particular Interest to the
now and the old soldiers. How the
ournng-outang nt the Hagenback wild nnl-
tnal show caught most everybody ; curiosity
to ECO Darwin's missing link kept the place
well filled all day and evening. Captain
Lous Sorcho and his unique deep sea diving
exhibit were the center of attraction to the
eoldler boys. They all seemed anxious to
see the man that recovered the bodies of the
boys from Havana harbor and to know how
ho did it.
Probably the best patronized attraction
on the Midway was the Scenic railway , not
for the view of the great naval battfe that
It giver but the tunnel. You see the boys
hadn't seen the girls for a year and it
was daylight all day long. It Is snfo to say
the car's were never so well loaded as they
were yesterday. All of tbe best attractions
were ' .well patronized npd1 big crowds were
at the Philippine Village , Cuban Village ,
Srhlltz Pavilion , Darkness and Dawn , The
Old Plantation , the Artist Studio , Pabst
Vaudeville , the Merry-go-round , Streets of
Cairo , Hawaiian Village , Moorish Palace ,
Waragraph , Cora Beckwltb and Hobson
Sinking the Merrlmac. It was wonderful
how everybody seemed to be able to pick
out the best attractions , but then exposi
tions are expositions and people have at
tended them before.

The management of the exposition has
decided to have a Douglas County Day ,
nnd Is making extensive preparations for It.
September 9 has been decided upon as the
date , at which time the exhibits of the
county will ho completed In every particu
lar and will make an excellent showing. A
program of some eort will bo arranged and
every effort will bo exerted to make it an
event of much importance to the county.
September 4 , I abor Day , promises to bo
a red letter day. The labor organizations
of the city are taking great Interest and
will start the ball rolling with a big parade
through the city , and then nil will go out
to the exposition grounds , where n program
of races and other amusements win be
carried out.
September 5 has been set apart ns a sort
of Editors' Day , or at least all the editors
who publish papers along the Elkhorn line
of railway have been Invited to .come to
the big show on that clay with their wives
and families and see the sights and enjoy
the hospitality of the exposition manage
ment. The editors will arrive In the even
ing , nnd the next forenoon a reception
will be tendered them in the auditorium ,
where Dr. Miller and J. U. Buchanan will
speak nnd the editors win have nn op
portunity to talk back , If they ao desire.
A luncheon will also be given them at the
Exposition Cafu.
Crowd WediifNilny
The crowds at the exposition Wednesday
night were of such proportions aa to throw
nil others of thla year In the shade. The j
band concert was listened to by a throng I
that filled every reserved , and a large num-
her of additional seats , and there were
thousands standing on the Plaza. The fire
works afterwards attracted largo numbers
of people and the Midway appeared as It
did on some of the big nights last year.
The soldiers were more In evidence In the
evening and wherever they went they at
tracted a great deal of attention. Sorao at
tempt was made ns guessing the number
of the people on the grounds by exposition
officiate nnd the
unanimous verdict was
that there wao In the neighborhood of 30.00C
Within the gates.

! SOUTH OMAHA NEWS , j
Superintendent Wolfe of the publlo schools
stated yesterday that ho would announce
the assignment of teachers within the next
day or two. The Hat Is about completed ,
but ns a few changes from the original or-
nwigniont are contemplated the assignments
will not bo given out until these changes
nro settled upon.
The work of repairing the buildings Is
progressing slowly , but It la thought that
by hastening tb.o work provision can be
made for at least part of the Increased num
ber of pupils expected nt the opening of
the schools , on September 11.
Yesterday plumbers commenced the work
of connecting the Hawthorne nnd Missouri
Avenue schools with the eawors. Superin
tendent Wolfe Is iHvliledly nppowl , o any
but flushing closets In the schools and In
this ho Is being supported by a majority
of the members of the Board of Education.
The Lincoln school Is also to bo connected
with the eewer in the alloy between Twcnty-
fifth and Twenty-sixth streets. Parents who
send their children to Brown Park school
are also desirous of having that building
connected with n sewer lu order that the
dry closet system may bo abandoned. Su
perintendent Wolfe has advocated this over
since he hae had charge of the schools anil
It Is possible that steps toward this end
may bo taken. In order to connect this
school with a sewer It will bo necessary to
lay a pipe 2,500 feet to tup the main san
itary sewer nt Railroad nvcuuo , It is esti
mated that the cost ot this work will bo in
the neighborhood ot JSOO. Of this sum n
largo portion could bo repaid Into the school
fund by selling the right to make connec
tions. Sewers arc scarce In the vicinity of
the Brown Park school and It is quite likely
that many property owners would bo willing
to pay a reasonable sum for the privilege
of making eower connections. In this way
at least one-half of the cost could bo re
covered. Steam heat will bo used In the
Brown Park school after this , the Intention
being to do nwny entirely with the Smcad
dry closet system. Unless sewer connections
I I are made out-of-door closets will bo neces
sary and members of the board do not favor
| these. Superintendent Wolfe is nlso op
posed to out-of-door closets. Ho strongly
favors the building of a sewer and ns throe
other schools arc being connected with sew
ers It Is reasonable to suppose that the
Brown Park school house will be similarly
provided for.
It Is thought that at the next meeting of
the board , Monday night , nn advertisement
for bids for the erection of the now school
house at Twentieth and O streets will ba
ordered published. If the contract Is lot not
later than the middle of September It Is
thought that the building can be completed
nnd ready for occupancy by January 1.
The High school annex on Twenty-sixth
street has been painted Inside and seats for
little children have been Installed nnd nl
of the first primary children will bo sen
from the Central school to the annex.
Superintendent Wolfe says that three mor
rooms are needed nt once to relieve th
preojure at the High school building , bti
suitable rooms cannot bo found. It Is un
derstood that the members of the board
stand ready to rent such rooms nt any time
providing the locality Is considered suitable
Courts Illoclc IlimlncNK.
Two restraining orders Issued by the dis
trict court now tlo the hands of the cltj
council inretard to the passage of ordi
nances. The flrs ( order was issued some
tlmo ago and restrains the councllmen from
taking any action toward granting the re
quest of the Union Pacific Railroad com
pany for the vacation of n part of Com
mercial street In the northwest part of the
city. On account of the absence from the
city of attorneys Interested in this case the
hearing on the restraining order has never
been called. Interest in the matter seems to
have flagged , and it is possible that the
Union Pacific has given up the idea of build
ing additional tracks In this city until nr-
ransemen'ts ' cnn bo made for such improve
ments without being interfered with by
property owners. No ono seems to know
when this case will bo called , and until it Is
the council la prevented from itaklng any ac
tion whatever. Next in importance comes
the order from Judge Fawcett , restraining
the council from passing the ordinance re-
ipeallngr the franchise granted to the Magic
City Electric Light nnd Power company.
This case la set for hearing on Friday ,
September 1 , and the city will engage special
counsel to assist City Attorney Montgomery
in fighting the granting of a perpetual In
junction. It Is asserted by the members of
the council that the franchise now held by
the Magic City people Is not worth the paper
It la written on , for the reason that the arti
cles of Incorporation of the company were
not filed with the secretary of state until
after the granting of 'the ' franchise and the
filing of a bond. The state law distinctly
holds that articles of incorporation must
be fllod prior to the execution of any busi
ness other than the organization of n cor
poration. As far as known the passage ol
the ordinance was perfectly legal , there be
ing nothing wrong with the record , but when
the attention of the council was called to
the fact that the state law had not been
complied with nn ordinance was Immediately
Introduced repealing the franchise.
