1 THE OMAHA DAILY HEE: WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 1002. i WESTERN LEAGUE OPENING Tim Gams of Base Ball Beason Come I Thii Afternoon. 'MILWAUKEE COMMENCES AT OMAHA aftarleat Rival, will Meet for First Tim In Year and Try for Bapremarr la Day, of t'orr. This sfternoon the opening games of th Western league championship season will be played. Milwaukee will play in Omaha, reorla at Des Moines. Kansas City at Colorado Springs and St. Joseph at Den ver, incidentally, the American leaguo and American aasoclstlon alio begin their pliylng season today. Thla will make It a memorable dsy In base ball annali. It will be the frtt time In years that Omaha has atarted the aeaana at home, and the occasion la to be made festive. Manager Kourke has arranged for a great carriage parade, In which both teams, the city and county officials, distinguished patrons of the aport, the newspapers anl others will tske part. Play will begin at Vinton Btreet park at 3 45, Mayor Moores eierclsing his official prerogative by throwing the flrat ball. It la not known yet which one of the four umpires will be assigned to Omaha, but very likely Artlo Latham will give us tho benefit of his presence. All the tesms of the league are In fairly good shape for the opening of the season. Out of the turmoil of the winter, with its uncertainty as to circuit srrngem"nts. management, players, and In fact all the detail of the game, the clubs have emerged much stronger and better organised than could reasonably have been expected. How atrong they arc can only be told by actual experience. 60 far aa Omaha Is concern! the team looks better than any we bav. had since 18K1. It Is without a doubt the best In the field we ever had. The battery staff, too. Is remarkably strong. All of the pitchers are young and atrong, with plenty of diamond experience and lota of ambition. Oondlng la the peer of any backstop In the country today, and Thomas Is a lively lad, with all the marks of a ball player. No one who has watched the team In practice has any fesr but that It will land well up In the pennant race. Manager Rourke mod estly saya he has great faith In his players. Milwaukee will be welcomed here by the old guard, who remember the Intense ri valry thst formerly existed between the Indians and the Brewers. Probably the fiercest games ever played In Omaha were with the Milwaukee team. This spirit of rivalry Is sure to be revived, and Hughey Duffy and his Angels will find Bill Rourke and his Pels Just aa eager for their scalps as though there had been no hiatus In the contest. The Milwaukee team reached here yesterday afternoon. The line-up for the first game will be: Omaha.

Butte Gaiette: Th South Platte coun try appears to be prolific In csndidates for congress, but none come anywhere having the lead that Hon. M. P. Klnkald has. He is the logical candidate. Is entitled to the nomination and will get It. ! North Nebraska Eagle: The Eagle has j heard the nsme of ex-Senator H. P. Shuni 1 way of Wakefield repeatedly mentioned a j an available candidate for congressional I honors In this district. The republicans could look further and fare worse. already mads a name In bis profession and qualifications on genersl principles quite a success in the business world. - meet those presented by George A. Brook. O'Neill Frontier: W. TV. Young of Ptan ton Is brought out as one of Nebraska's congressional candidates for a republican nomination. While It is out of the Fron tier's district there Is no harm In saying that with a six-horse team of republicans from Nebraska like Young in the house there would be something doing. O'Neill Frontier: Rusbville presents Hon. W. TV. Wood to the consideration of the Plxth district republicans. Sidney speaks favorably of Hon. II. M. Orlmes for 1 the same. It'a a long time since men were around hunting for republican nominations In the Sixth like they are now. Ord Qulx: Mr. Beeman of Kearney Is In the city this morning. He Is one of the prominent candidates for congressional honors In the Sixth district. As he will have the undivided support of Buffalo county he will no doubt go into the con vention with a good deal of strength. Albion News: H. C. Vail, Boone county's candidate for congress, Is not Indulging In any pyrotechnics to keep himself before the people. He Is not trying to convey the Idea that he Is the only man In the district compe tent to represent It In congress. He stands j ready to help elect the nominee of the re- iiuumnn convention wnetner it oe nimseir or another.

Winch Bring: Salt to He roves Estate. The two daughters and a grandchild of Beth F. Winch, who died at the age of 77 In St. Bernard's Hospital for Insane, Coun cil Bluffs, on February 11, 1899, have filed In district court a petition asking to bava annulled the transactions of Winch's widow, who is now Mrs. John J. Steen, in the Winch estate. The specific request Is to have declared void the deeds she gave to purchasers, and It Is the plaintiff's alle gation that she first gained title to the property by unduly influencing Winch In bis dotage. The petitioners are the daughters, Elvira Aldrlch and Emma 8. Oatman of Massa chusetts, and Irene F. Sweet, a minor heir of she who was Helena Winch. The $50,000 property Involved la said to Include the old home property at $204 North Twenty-fourth, the house next to it, now occupied by the widow and her present husband, John J. Steen, who la about 70 years old; twenty city lota in north Omaha, two in South Omaha, a flve-arrs tract near Miller park, 160 acres In Minnesota sixty miles from St. Paul, two lots Id Chicago, one on Washing ton boulevard, and six lota In Council Bluffs. The allegations In the petition are in the broadest language possible. In substance It la charged that she who was then Mrs. Miranda J. Mitchell went to the home of Mr. Winch to Msv, 1K8. presenting her self as a dressmaker; that ahe was ex tremely prepossessing and won the confi dence and demonstrative affection of Mr. Winch; that In April, 1892. his wife Surah had divorce proceedings well under way In district court and was suing for alimony; that Mra. Mitchell persuaded Winch 00 April 13 to transfer bia property to her by couvlnclng him that It his wife won her suit she and the "legal thieve" would get practically all that was In bis name; that Wausa Eagle-Herald: Jule Jenal of Hartlngton will be a candidate for con gress from this district, providing the con gressional convention tenders him the nomi nation. Mr. Jenal is one of three candi dates so far for these honors, the othr two being George Brooks of Baillle Mills and H. Clay Balrd of Santee. Any one of these three gentlemen would honor the position. Central City Nonpareil: Dr. Homer A. Hanson of Columbus was In the city Tues day looking the field over with a view to ascertaining his standing among Merrick county republicans as a congressional can didate. In meeting Dr. Hanaon one la fa vorably impressed with his pleasing per sonality, bia energy and evident ability. He Is perhaps the youngest aspirant for congressional honors In the state, being less than SO, but, although a young man, has Columbus Times: While new candidates for the nomination for congressman for this district are being announced every week it la Impossible to name a man that more completely combines all the prerequisites for that position than our own candidate from Platte, Dr. Homer A. Hanson. And not a single candidate thus far suggested will go Into the convention with the same flattering number of votes. While It Is a laudable ambition to aspire to the leader ship of this congressional district In this fall's campaign, we must have a candidate that can poll the solid vote of the party on the 11th day of November. Webster County Argus: Prominent among those who are making a strong fight to secure the nomination for congreBsmsn from the Fifth district on the republican ticket la Elliott Lowe, representative from Harlan county. Mr. Lowe s work In the last legislature was eapeclally character ised by bis strong committee work and he mada a good record for himself. He Is a man who has been engsged in business pursuits for many years among the people of this district, composed largely of agri culturists, and his years of experience have evidenced to him the needs of the district and qualified him In a large measure to fill the responsible position of congressman with ability and satisfaction to his people. Niobrara Pioneer: George A. Brooks has formally announced his candidacy for the republican nomination for congressman. Should Mr. Brooks receive the nomination It would be a recognition not only of the business world, but of the people with whom he comes In dally contact. His hss been a life of energy, full of that business enterprise and push that make the wheels .turn, yet softened with a benevolence that has bridged over many a struggling neigh bor or friend. And this has, It is strange to relate, been even passed along to some struggling foe If worthy as a man and citi xen. These attentions make the most fa miliar and striking local friendship that any citizen could wish to possets. A con gressman from the west must needs be a hustler, much more so when this great district Is considered. There Is not a candi date mentioned for this honor whose Tilden Citisen: State Senator TV. TV. Young of Stanton la an avowed candidate for the congress In this district snd the Citisen takes pleasure la making the an nouncement to its readers. There may be as good men available for the position, but certainly none better qualified. During the campaign of 1900, Mr. Young made the only political speech In TUden thst at tracted any attention and thia speech left with our community a very favorable Im pression of him as an orator. His term in the state senate, to which he was elected lsst fall, stamped him as an In defatigable worker and the bills he Intro duced and the speeches he made are con vincing proofs of his being In touch with the "common people" of the state. He Is a pronounced republican, highly honored In his own county (a democratic county, which gave him a good majority In 1900), an able lawyer of twenty-two years practice, a manly man capable of doing his own think ing, and with moral stsmina enough to ex press his honest convictions at all times, In all places and upon all political Issues. With him as the congressional candidate, the Third district republicans need never fear the humiliation of making a defensive campaign nor of being represented at Washington by a nonentity. Osmond Republican: Senator W. TV. Young of Stenton Is a candidate for the re publican nomination for congress in this district. Mr. Young is one of the most rep resentative and able men of the sta:e, whn, by hla Industry and close attention to busi ness in farming as well ns In law, has ac cumulated considerable of the worlds goods, owing to his strength of purpose and integrity. He has been grand chancellor of the atate grand lodge. Knights of Pythl.is. a position that he ably filled to the credit of the order, which made rapid advance ment under his supervision. Two f ears ago he was elected senator from the district comprisng the counties of Wayne, Madison, Pierce and Stanton, which district he repre sented with honor to his constituency. In the senate he became a recognized lesder. ever looking closely after the Interests of his district and that of the state. As a speaker and debater he had no superior In the senate and In whatever gland he took to be right he stood firmly to the end without flinching, showing the courage of his con victions. No man In the district Is better qualified to represent It In the halls of con gress thsn Mr. Young, and should he re ceive the nomination he will make a can VMS of the district such as very few men are able to make. He should at least re ceive the hearty support of his senatorial district In the coming contest. on April 30 the divorce was granted; that on the sixteenth day of the following month Winch, under ths influence of Mrs. Mitchell, took out a license and married her; that In thus violating the six months clause he wsa guilty of bigamy; that she used undue In fluence upon him at these different tlmea and Imposed upon his falling mental and physical condition; that he waa confined In St. Bernard's hospital In 1898, having been adjudged Insane, and that since January 1, 1897, Miranda baa been collecting and re ceiving the benefit of rentals and profits to aa amount alleged to be $10,000. , Attorneys Thomas and Nolaa. who repre sent the plaintiffs, had Deputy Clerk Gross man of the district court make a apeclal trip to the court house late Monday even ing to receive and file the petition on April II, to avoid any possible contention that might have arisen a day later aa to the application of the statute of ten-year limitation. Amusements. Llqald Air Demonstration. The lecture and demonstration of the subject of liquid air. given aa an extra num ber at the teachers' lecture course filled Boyd's theater last night. The demonstra tor. Mr. Rugg, who is the eecond person to give demonstratiooa of thla subject la the city, was fully alive to the possibilities of the rw force, which he said only awaits cheaper means of production to take its place, as one of the powerful mechanical agents of civilization. The usual experi ments hardening mercury, converting rub ber Into a brittle substance and boiling the air on a cake of Ice were given. The liquid air in a kettle boiling over an alcohol flame, coated the kettle with Ice completely. The experiments given were followed with great interest by the audience who followed the work for two hours. At the conclusion of the lecture Mr. Rugg met members of the alumni of the Univer sity of Illinois, of which institution he ts a graduate. Worthy of Consideration.

C. and a note requesting the landlady to see that the let ters were mailed. In both Pylea stated that he was almost blind and was sick and helpless. "I know that you would divide your last cent with me," he wrote, "but I cannot be a burden to you when I know that you need every cent that you can make." He requested hla son snd daughter to pray for htm and bade tbem goodby. Iahalea Gas All Night. Pyles went to the hotel about 7 o'clock Monday evening and registered aa Joseph Miles, giving no address. About 9 o'clock ha retired, snd that wsa the last seen of him by the people at the hotel.

FRENCH BARK LANDS SAFELY Vessel One Hasdrrd Days I.ate Inez pertedly Arrives at the Golden Gate. SAN FRANCISCO. April 22. Hhe French bark, Oliver de Clisson, long ago given up for lost,' arrived here today, 100 days from Cardiff, Wales, with a cargo of coal. The bark had not been beard from since It waa obliged to put la Cayenne with a mutinoua crew laat August. Sra-farlng men were greatly surprised when It ap peared oft the Oolden Gate. The vessel was delayed by head winds and adverse ocean currents. The stores ran low, three men died of scurvy and three others are now afflicted with the same disease. The troublesome sailers were subdued snd otherwise the long trip waa uneventful. Don't Aeeept Coaaterfelta.

Te iinobors in fiiahi I ' AND VICINITY yHare doing everything possible to post you about the re markable tobacco-quality in the TOM KEENE. It is now for the first time in the history of tobacco cul ture that a cigar of such character is sold for five cents. These cigars nrr mndf nf n rrfnninr dnlirinns , ... - sarrvf(ttra American grown Vuelta tobacco, and conveys many of the bast points heretofore given only in the highest grade goods, The transplanting of the Vuelta sprouts to this country is the sensation of the to bacco trade. It Is the first and only time it has ever been pushed to a successful issue. Thr.ujh this the manufacturers of the TOM KEENE escape the heavy importa tion duty and are enabled to offer the American smoker that peculiar rich, velvety flavor for the first time in nickel goads. Smokers who can appreciate a good cigar are the strongest missionaries for the Tom Keenc. All who try them are almost invariably found by dealers to return for more. We have never in our long experience witnessed such popularity for a cigar. If you have never tried a Tom Keene just do eo. You will wonder at its distinctly surpassing excellence over anything you ever smoked before at the 5 ceut price. S?o cr P IT--Tc" vour 1 r,end9' and !en IUBHBm H V them to tell their friends.
