LONDON , Oct. 18. The London afternoon
papers Illustrate the sportsmanlike view
taken by all ( sections of the English press
of the Columbia's" victory yesterday. The
St. James Gazette says : .
"Our regret for Shamrock's defeat must bo
outweighed by our satisfaction nt ( ho fact
that the accident was provided against be
forehand and thnt , therefore , no opportunity
for a misunderstanding could exist on this
occasion.
"Shamrock's gear reached the cracking
point flrst , and the fact that Columbia out-
Balled It with the same breeze shows that
the American boat Is the hotter , which It Is
Just the object of these matches to settle
one way or the other. "
The Pall Mall Gazette says : "This Is n
competition between constructors , as well ns
sailors , nnd the American victory was per
fectly fair and decisive. "

There was n wedding Wednesday night at
550 South Twenty-sixth street , and there were
the concomitant Joy and brilliance befitting
such an occasion. When the merriment was
nt Its height nnd blushing bride and happy
groom were receiving the congratulations of
many guests n peculiar sound penetrated the
cars of all prcednt and It grew In volume
and rapidity until it was brought forcibly to
all present that they were being treated tea
a charivari by a lot of hoys. When the nolee
had become unbearable the bridegroom wont
out on the front porch and parleyed 'with the
enemy. He found bo could not patch up n
truce without treating , eo ho called tbo boys
about him and carfully scrutinized them ,
found ono whom ho thought looked honest
and ho gave him some money , saying at the
same time : "Now , my boy , take thla and dl-
vide It among your companions. " "
No Eooner had 1ho door closed behind the
bridegroom than the boy who got the money
took to his heels with the pack In full cry ,
hut ho was too llect and outdistanced them.
They then held a council of war and decided
to go back nnd try their luck again. They
succeeded in getting their man out once more
and again ho called the boys about htm and
this time was partcular In his search for a
boy who was the soul of honesty. Ho dis
cerned dimly through the moonlight a lad on
whoso physiognomy there was certainly as
ho thought written honesty in every linea
ment , and ho gave him a generous coin with
the admonition to treat the crowd. This boy ,
too , failed to perform his duty and ho dis
appeared In the darkness as though the earth
had swallowed htm up.
By thla time the party of lads were des
perate and they armed themselves with
fence rails , staves and clubs , like a mob in
the French revolution , nnd descended upon
the house once more , this tlmo attacking In
the rear , with the rceult that they pounded
off considerable plastering before their boru-
hardmeut was terminated. This was more
than the bridegroom would stand for , and ho
telephoned the pollco. Officer Bdgblll was
detailed-to Investigate nnd when ho arrived
ho found a frantic mob of hoys which it took
him some tlmo to disperse. After they were
'
flnall'y put to rout another oniccr was sta
tioned to guard the house and quiet soon
reigned over the scene.

acncrixl Nelson A. Miles will be nt the

ident of the Exposition , had a telegram from
the general Wednesday In which he nc-
ceptcd the Invitation of the mnnnRemcnt to
tie present on that day , which will bo known
ns Miles day and every effort will be matlo
to Rive the famous warrior a proper wel
come to the exposition , the city and the
etatc.
The appointment of committees on re
ception and other matters of detail will betaken
taken up as soou ns possible and thcro will
bo Interesting ceremonies connected with
the event , both civil nnd military. The ex-
ocutlvo committee of the- exposition la
busily engaged upon plans that will mature
In n day or so and they promise to present
a program of unusual Interest.
A member of the committee said In rc-
sard to the matter that there was no doubt
that the coming of HO famous n warrior
would bring a crcat many people to the city.
The Into war had aroused much Interest In
military matters and the presence In the
city of a man of euch great reputation would
certainly be n matter of widespread Interest.
Another day for which the committee IK
making extensive preparations Is Thursday ,
October 26 , to be known ns Scandinavian
day. It Is the desire of the committed to
get Governor Llnd of Minnesota hero to
speak. Governor Poynter has already been
secured. Olio of the features will bo the
Ringing of a Scandinavian choir , composed
of 150 voices , In connection with Dellstedfs
band. The program will be a sort of a
musical festival something out of the or
dinary. A good many societies of the city
and etato have taken an Interest In the day
nnd a largo attendance Is expected. Several
other epeclnl days are being planned , which
will soon be announced. Thei resolution of
the board of directors to keep the exposition
open has quieted the uneasiness about the
grounds nnd ovcry ono has taken hold with
vigor nnd with the Intention of pushing
things through successfully.
German Munlc Exemplified.
The consort Wednesday night was de
voted to the rendition of mus'c by German
composers and was gvcetcd with the same
enthusiasm that has characterized the two
former concerts In the scries. While some
of the composers represented on the pro
gram were not of the best , there were
others whoso names nre known the world
over and In consequence there was no lack
of appreciation and Interest. A new selec
tion Introduced waa the grand march from
'Tho Queen of Sheba" by Goldsmith , which
proved to be a pleasing number. The over
turn "Tho Fugitive" by Kretschmar , has
been heard before , but It met with a warm
reception. The two Schubert numbers the
ballot music from "Rosamund" and the
serenade wore among the best of the pro
gram. Mr. Bellstedt took the , Polo of the
la'tter selection and' gave It a fine Interpreta
tion. Ae a cornetlst he Is a master , 'pro
ducing a tone as soft as velvet and 'yet full ,
rich and round.
The Mcndlossohn "Songs Without
Words" were given a clean presentation ,
although they are heard to much better ad
vantage on the piano or given by an or
chestra. "Trnumerel , " nn old favorite ,
received with the applause It deserved and
that was generous. The ono Wagnerlan
number from ' 'Lohengrin" ' gave a little
touch of brilliance to the program. The
last number was the beautiful selection
"The Invitation to the Dance" by Weber.
It Is not a great composition by any means
and yet there are some flue passages In It
nnd It Is a. piece that demands fine technique.
It begins with a dialogue between a man nnd
a woman , the different Instruments simulat
ing the bass and treble voices. Following
the Introduction the waltz starts up and
away the couple seems to glide over the
waxen lloor to ono of the most entrancing
waltzes over written. Tonight the concert
la a gem , for three of the greatest music
masters of the world will have their music
presented. Handel , Haydn and Mozart are
the composers and the selections are repre
sentative of their works.

Plans are now being drawn by Architect L.
A. Davis and when completed will show a
creditable looking structure. The building
Is to have a frontage of sixty feet on Twen
ty-fourth street and run hack on M street
for a distance c 1 100 feet. Stores are planned
for the ground lloor , with cither odlcoJ or
flats aboove. Mr. Fahs has not made up
his mind about the construction tf the second
end lloor , hut expects to do so before the
plans have progressed much further. If the
second floor is to bo devoted to offices the
building will bo heated with steam through
out , but If it is to bo cut up into Hats it Is
thought that the heating plant will ho
omitted. The corner on which this block is
to be erected Is ono of the most prominent
in the city and tht > investment will no doubt
be a good oue.

Hon. Joseph Scott , ex-president of the
Montana Stock Growers' association , la cred
ited In the Journal-Stockman with the fol
lowing Interview : "The rise In the price
of beef is not due to any particular shortage
In the available supply , but because more
beef Is being oaten. Consumption of beef
has Increased and that has raised the price.
The smoke coming out of nil the factories
in the land simply shows that the laboring
classes are employed and that they are able
to buy beef. There arc just as many cat
tle In the country as thcro ever were , but
the demand Is much greater. Montana will
not ship half as many cattle east this winter
as In previous years simply because there
have not been so many range yearlings
bought from the southern ranges. The
price has been too high. "

ILLINOIS CENTRAL ACTIVITY
E&fciiHloit from Fort Uoilgc to Oniiiliu
in I'roKremiinK Quite
Hiiii I illy.
J. P. Wallace , assistant second vice presi
dent of tbo Illinois Central railroad , with
headquarters at Chicago , arrived In the city
yesterday. Ho came from St. Louis via
the Burlington In special Illinois Central
car No. 1 , which was Immediately trans
ferred to the Union Pacific tracks cud lakcu
over to Council Bluffs. Mr. Wallace was ac
companied by his secretary. C. H. Allison ; T.
M. Moore , right of way agent of the Illinois
Central , and Lieutenant Charles S. Wallace
and wife of the United States signal corps.
Lieutenant Wallace is n brother of Vice
President Wallace and Is now on his way
from. Cuba to the Philippines. A trip from
Chicago via Louisville and St. Louis to
Omaha was arranged for the pleasure of the
lieutenant and his wife.
Mr. Wallace , who with Second Vice Presi
dent J. T. Hanrahan has supervision of the
traWo and operating.departments , has had
under his entire direction the extension of
the Illinois Central from Fort Dodge , la. ,
to Council Bluffs and Omaha. After stop
ping In Council Bluffs In the afternoon long
enough to note that all operations In track
construction aud preparations for the erec
tion of depots and round house were pro
gressing without interruption , Mr. Wallace
left to Inspect the work on the Illinois Cen
tral extension.
"How soon -Kill the Illinois Central he
running trains into Omaha ? Well , that
question is a little hard to answer , " said
Vice President Wallace In response to an
Inquiry. "Wo originally expected to have
everything completed and ready to operate
trains by January 1 , 1900 , and we have at
present no reason to doubt our ability to do
so. The construction of a line of railroad
131 miles In length In a year's time , how
ever , Is n mighty big undertaking , and 0110
which usually consumes two or three years.
There are certain conditions which must
needs enter into calculations of this kind ,
especially weather nnd labor. Wo might bo
caused considerable delay if cither thu
weather or labor conditions are unfavorable ,
but you can depend upon it that we are
going to do everything In our power to have
this extension completed by the flrst of
the year.
"At present wo have 103 miles of track
completed. The extension Is 131 miles In
length , coneequentlythere are yet twenty-
eight miles of track to be laid. The com
pleted track Is In three divisions , as wo have
had our men at work at different points
along the line. From Council Bluffs we
have eighteen miles ; then there are fifty
miles completed from near Logan to a point
opposite the town of Boyer , which is twelve
miles north of Denlson. At the ether end
of the line our track is finished from Tara ,
a Junction point on the main line six miles
this side of Fort Dodge to Coon
river , a distance of tKrty-flve
miles. After the entire track Is com
pleted and all connections are made It will
be about a month 'before ' the regular opera
tion of passenger and freight trains can
commence. The track must bo surfaced up
and otherwise prepared for service.
"In the twenty-eight miles yet to he
completed the grading has not all been done.
In two places the track has been laid up to
the graders and It will be continued as teen
j ns the grade is prepared , Wo have- five
! steam shovels at work loading ballnet for
I use on the grade. At this time there are
i thirty engines and train crews at work on
' the extension. Wo have forces of men ,
aside from the graders and track layers , at
work putting up water tnnlu , bulldlug nl.i-
lions , stock yards nnd preparing for side
tracks. In all these departments we have ,
perhaps , 5,000 men employed In this work.
Since the Ifith of last April we have had nn
average of 1,000 tennw at work and in our
grading have removed the enormous quan
tity of G.OOO.OOO yards of dirt.
"The different executive heads of the Illi
nois Centrnl nro carefully considering tha
many things nrlsltiK In connection with the
Inauguration of our line In n new territory
In Omnhn we will have a city parsengcr and
ticket office In the heart of the business
part of the city , and will have representa
tives of our freight department located
there. It Is not probable that our city offices
will be opened up before the line Is coin *
plcted nnd trains In operation , although , of
course , some preparation In opening up the
office will bo ueeof nry nnd will consume n
short time. You can depend upon It thnt
when the Illinois Central opens Its line to
Omaha Its service will equal thnt of nny
other road , nnd will bo excelled by none.
In fact , 1 will venture the statement that
the Central , as eoon as its new homes in
Council Bluffs and Omaha are established ,
will onjey ns great popularity ns nny other
road , because of Its superior physical con
dition , Us excellent equipment , aud the frc-
qucncy nnd ppccd of Its trains.
"In Council Hluffa where wo own the en
tire property between Twelfth and Thir
teenth Htrceta and extending from Broadway
to the river wo arc putting In our side
tracks. Our round house , la now In course
of construction and we will early let the
contract for the erection of a magnificent
depot , which will have Its entrance on
Twelfth street near Broadway. "
