the new track. Among the old-time cracks
who are expected to be heard from are
George Meleratein. "Faithful" Gadte and
W. A. rixley.
Promoters of the new track assert that
there will be no faster bicycle track la the
world than right here In Omaha, as it is to
be banked to a speed of 1 S to the ml
l'p to two years ago it was thought impos
sible to make records on anything shorter
than a third mile track, and even thea it
was oentldered that a mile fiat trsk with
a good surface was faster than the so-called
short" blcyele tracks. In the sprlag of
Manager Gleeren of the Stearns blcyele
team found the third mile track at Santa
raona, Cal.. much too slow for the then ex
isting records, and was farced to more to
Coronado. Cal.. to the mile track. In order to
break, existing record. In the last two
years, however, short tracks, even down to
eight lap to the mile, have been constructed
on sttrb improved lines that there Is now no
question that speed equal almost to a
straightaway course can te o-falacd from an
eight-lap track, such aa the one being bunt
tn Omaha.

GORDON'S GREAT MAGNANIMITY
Lord It lc h l'lTat loner of the I'ollrr

llecrnt lleerr.
It was a wretched roomful of varrants and
plaia druaks who awaited Juttlre la the de
taints; peuad. adjoin. at police court. Mon
day asoralae. Thugh most of thee had
been la Jail liaec Saturday, yet by hook or
crook the news had reached them that Jadge
Gordon had met with a serious reverse in
the district court aad ty the time the ton
clock struck every hobo of them knew that
by a ruling of the hicher tribunal his honor
as out Just II 609 back salary. Would he
vect his spleen upon them' It was natcral
to suppose he would be a little severe In bis ,
arbitraments but the greasy transgressors
reasoned from & wrong premise. Their
psychological research was based upon an er
roneous thecry As a matter of fact, since
Saturday noon Judge Gordon has discharged
M per cent of the defendant arraigned be
fore him. hera during the month preced
ing his aggregate fines exceeded those of any
other month tn the last year. Here is the
record, begslnlng July 7
Saturday Eighteen prisoners arraigned,
fifteen ducharred. three punished.
Monday Seventeen prisoners arraigned,
thirteen discharged, four punished.
T-jeslaj Five prisoners arraigned, three
discharged, two punished.
Yesterday complaints were filed against
two plaia drunks. Luke Hazeltun and Thomas
Mulloney. They tad been arrested by offi
cers of the nlgbt shift, who sleep forenoons
and can't appear a witnesses in court until
: p m.. but tne judge ordered tae cases ais
mlssed "for want of prosecution.'' Monday
morning a plain drunk charge against F E
Hill was dismissed by the Judge "because
the prosecuting attorney was not present to
prosecute It." though at that very moment
the latter was In an adjoining room filing a
complaint In another case. The case acalna:
Albert Miller, vagrant, was disposed of tn
the same way Monday a hack driver named
Fred Field, charged with falling to post his
license in hu vehicle, pleaded guilty as
charged, but the Judge took his case under
adviseatnt.
In view ef these facts the petty criminal
element is disposed to regard the district
court decision as
a distinct toon to their
das.

about the success of the party, there ha?
been apparent a lark of united effort that
hat militated against the efficiency ot much
that has been attempted. Speakers whose
standing entitled them to be heard in some
central locatioa have been obliged to go into
the suburbs where It was possible to assem
ble but comparatively few to hear them
Meetings have been held tn various parts of
the city on the tame alght wtea lt would
have beea better to have had but one at
some central pc'at All of this working a?
cross purpose will be doae away with under
the plan proposed. Committees win be ap
pointed to arranse dates for meetings, re
ceive speakers, secure hall and attend to
the decorating and to perform such other
work as is found to be necessary- , Besides,
through its membership, every club in the
city can be notified of whatever of mo
ment i in prospect In less thaa twenty-four
hours.
All shades of republicanism will be rep-
ented in the new club and tt Is the la-

A Jury In Judge Vinsonhaler s court Tues
day afternoon decided that a shopkeeper is
Justified ia keeping open his place of busi
ness on Sunday. The proceedings were
brought by the Retail Clerks' -usocUtlun
ag-amst Jacob Sehlank of South Omaha as
a test ot the right of an employe to his one
day of rest In seven. H. A. Davis of the
retail clerks testified that he had entered
Schlank's place of business on N street on
Sunday and cad s-eea Sehlank disposing ot
goode to customers.
The defense pointed out that the county
attorney had refused to have anything to
do with the prosecution and that the blue
law under which the action was hrougat
did not cover the present case. The Jury
of four talesmen returned a verdict of not
guilty after a few minutes' dtl.teratioa

little way out of Omaha who pot his work

the plea that he was poverty. strltkea The
