It vti a bunch of bullyrag. ad finally Fo
lic Captain Her and two patrolmen wer
necessary in order lbat tb came might
proceed,
Colorado Sprlnca was platclr there to
win tbe conteat by any eld mean, and when
It became apparent in tb first two In
Bine that tb Rourke lUnger bad tbem
trapped to tb operating table, they quit
playing ball and begin beefing. Omaba

not turn out a foul. It flayed tru in the
track, however, and bit tb bag. bouncing
tip then and rolling over tb foot of Hickey,
who waa running from aecond. Latham
aid, "Let the game go on" and then Ever
Itt Jumped into tbe ring. He eald tbe man
waa out becauae he waa bit by a batted
ball, which waa entirely right, by tbe way.
Latham thought ao, too. and In tb fac
of tb entire Colorado team, which bad
warmed onto tbe field, be changed hi de
cision, calling Hickey out.
Peg. Battle Bit Latham.
Tbla atarted Omaha to going, and Cal
houn kept at it ao bard that be waa fined
ad then ordered out of tb gam. Geclnt
took tb place, and played perfectly. But
Omaba waa then riled at tb umpire, and
la tb fourth a pop bottle bounced up and
kit him. It came from tb weat bleacher,
and Arlie went clear crazy. He rushed
round ' and demanded pollc protection,
which be got.
Tilings went along quietly till tbe eighth.
Omaha constantly Increasing Its lead. Tbe
1.000 people present bad aettled back to
watch base ball again, but aa eoon as Bill
Everitt cam to bat and struck out for
tb third time stuff waa off again. Te Bill's
notion h bad won a baa en balls, and b
walked up to Latham and grabbed him by
th shirt. Latham knocked Bill's arms oS.
and then tbe first baaeman called him some
lovely semes. That was too much for Ar
ils, and be aald that If Bill wasn't thrown
from tbs grounds be weald give tbe game
to Colorado Springs. Bill waa thrown,
while bia team mates grabbed their bat
threateningly and yelled at Latham,
"You're going to get It plenty."
But Omaha won, and deserved all of It.
Tber waa some nice hitting, and neither
of the opposing pitchers were, aafe within
tbe bands of tbs Hangers. Graham was
CUty, aa usual, but kept tbe hits ufflcleatly
scattered Be and Stone were . both there
with a triple and a single. Honitkgsworth
did tbe great hitting for the visitors. Etons
tola bases lik a mud turtle taking bait.

BARTLEY AND RICHIE DRAW
Lrge (rewl Wltaessea a Clever aad
Fast Flabt at ota
Onsaha.
It wss no "spsv" that Fara Sumroeefleld
sent out from the WlrWy City to fight
Johnnie Richie st routh Omaha lat nlsht.
snd when the local laJ finally won s draw
from the gamev little Mike Hartley he had
earned it after twenty round a of the
fiercest and yet the cleverest righting his
ring experience had ever demanded.
From the start the men a ere evenly
matched. Though clean ana bloodlees
throughout, the fight was the occasion of
a constant exchange of vicious blows, snd
It was onlv the good condition cf both men
that bore 'them through to the end of th
journey. ....
An enormous crowd was parked into
Blum's hall to see the fray and enthusiasm
was on the rampage. Local sentiment put
the house Jargelv in Rlch e s favor at first,
but Bartlev came to the front with such
a whirlwind attack snd footwork that soon
fully half the crowd was bscktng him.
The mill was so clearly for biood and on
the square that excitement rose to the
VlicVlMt Tlltch.
From the very start Mike flew in like
a man intended, ana ne iea tne ngnting
nnt of the wav with all his strength, out-
footing and a little outhoxing Richie. The
latter s superior strength and endurance,
however, stood him in good stead, and as
Richie also had a little more steam behind
his punch matters were thus evened up.
Bartley is a six-round fighter, and had
never in his life gone more than eight, so
tne last half of the go wp a new experi
ence to him, snd he lasted remarkably well
considering. His wind was not equal to
Richie'. ,, , .
Am urerimlnarles Kid Jensen of Omaha
won from Charles Klussw with a clever
knockout tn the thlra rouna. at leainrr
weighia. Claude Grayson was surprised by
iiavinr novice. Ted Williams, fight him
to a draw at lightweights in four fierce
rounds, and Terry Mustain disposed of
Billv King OI Uticoin in jtn nan
minute. He outweighed his man nearly
twenty pounda.
u-a Pnti,i.n. rrfereed all events. Jack
Perrv wss official tlmekeeier. Halch Smith
challenged Richie and Bartley. and Frank
Collier challenged Billy Rhodes, straight
Queensberry rules. All propositions when
announced elicited great applaune. An ef
fort will be made to bring Richie and
Bartley together again tor a oeciuing

rurvt-T-r? vfv 53 William H. Rothwell
better known a 'Toung Corbett. gained
the decision over "Kid Broad of Cleve
land, in the tenth round of a fast and furious
fight. Broad put up a very gooa ugnu
and in the ninth had Corbett groggy, but
the Denver man came back strong and
finished the round fresh. At no time w-as
there a minute lost. Both men were will
ing to lead and force the fighting whenever
necessary.
The fight tonight Is the third time this pair
has met. The contest was for the gross
receipts, 75 per cent of which goes to the
winner snd 2E per cent to th loeer, and
the featherweight championship of the
world.
The first fight between these men was
on March 22, 1901. when" Broad scored a
riun knockout in the fourth round. On
Julv 2fi, lWl, Corbett trained the decision
over Broad in a ten-round fight, the lat
ter showing a decided superiority. On
both these occasions the princlpsls claimed
they had not been in first class shape. To
night, however, the boy ssld they were
in fine fettle. Both men fight in much the
same stvle and are always ready to "mix
up" at close range. They weighed In at
126 pounds at t o'clock this afternoon. Th
betting was z to l on Lnrwii.
The Colorado Athletic club arena seats
l.Ouo persons, and there were at least 4.000
people present, every inch of standing
loom being taken.
Corbett snowea superiority in me htfi,
second, third end fourth rounds. Broad
had a shsde the better In the fifth and
seventh, and had Corbett grogey in the
ninth. Broad seemed much stronger in the
tenth, but on points tne referee oeciaea
Corbett hsd won the bsttle. The crowd
was divided as to the Justice of the de
cision, many holding that Broad waa en
titled to a draw.

On Saturday, May 14. the national gov
ernmeot will unveil In the city of Wash
ington a monument to Count it Rocham
beau, erected a a tribute to bi noble
en-ice In aid of tb colonies during tbe
revolutionary war.
Tbe monument stand at th aouthwest
corner of Lafayette Square, and 1 txartly
tbe line sise a the monument to Lafay
ette which standi on tbc southeast corner
of th square. On tbe front of the base
of the monument is a figure of tbc god
dess of Liberty stepping out cf a bost. In
ber left band she bold a flagstaff, on which
the rtar and Stripe and the French flag
re intertwined. In ber right band 1
word, with which sbe 1 defending B
American eagle, wblcb stand above a
hleld, bearing thirteen stars, ymboliral
of tbe original colonies. The side ef tbe
base of tbe monument will bear the coat
of arms of France and of tbe Aorhambeeu
family. Tbe back of tb bee will bear
tbe name of Count d Rochambeau. A
bronx atatue of Rochambeau. standing with
hi right band upraised, surmounts the
ton base.
France will be represented by Count de
Rochambeau. great grandson of the French
marshal, and his wife, and a number of
official designated by tbe French govern
ment. Tbe date cf tbe unveiling 1 tb anniver
sary of Count de Rochambeau entrance
Into the French rmy, in 1742, when only
IT year old. He wa efhsrated for the
prleatbood, but the death of hi elder
brother made blm belr to tbe title and
estates of bis father, and be followed tbe
tradition of tbe family and entered tbe
army. In 1747 be wn made a colonel, and
In 17P1 he was made a field marshal. He
served with distinction a tbe commander,
in -chief of th French force In America
during the war of Independence and ws
called the father of tb French army by
Emperor Ntpoleon, wbo beld him In high
esteem.
A Glaaaor of Renaaare.
There 1 a glamor of romance surround
ing tbe very same of the Rochambeau of
the American revolution and mo long a
tbe story of that revolution continue te
bold interest and charm, Just so long will
the Btory of Rochambeau hold it color
bright and fadelee In tbe woof of Ameri
can history. From out tbe multiplied
memoirs of hi private and public life a
writer In tbe Washington Post prenent
these salient features:
One hundred and seventy-six years ago
be was born at Vendome. France, July 1,
172S. He entered tbe army In 1741 as a
cornet In tbe regiment of St. Simon. Tbe
record show that be distinguished blm
aelf in tbe campaigns of 144-46 and in 1746
was ald-de-camp to the duke of Orleans
In 1747, at tb age of 22, be wa commis
sioned colonel of tbe infantry regiment
In the battle of LanSeld, the same year, he
received a wound In the bead, and a be
wa being carried insensible from tbe field
a second wound In the thigh restored blm
to consciousness.
Near tbe end of 1749 he married the
notably beautiful and cultured Mile. Telle
d'Aeoata. A son and A daughter were born
to them. The daughter lived but a abort
time. Tbe son. Donation Marl Joseph de
Vlmeure, Vioomte de Rochambeau, was hli
father's companion in arms In America.
After the peace of Alx-la-Chapelle,
Colonel Rochambeau became governor ot
Vendome, but on tbe breaking out of tbs
even year' war he resumed active mill
tary service. In 1766 be was commissioned
brigadier general. He served In Germany
Is 1760 and at tbe battle of Cloister Camp,
while resisting a charge of English grena
diers, be received a ball In tbe thigh, but
by the aid of two chasseurs, who assisted
blm to walk, be bad strength to give or
ders during the day.
AaslB-aeal Americas Coxaaaaa.
In 1700, after years ot faithful eervice
and while ill of inflammatory rheumatism.
be wa appointed lieutenant general to
take cbarg ot tbe expeditionary force
destined to aid tbe Americana. As eoon
as be waa able to travel be went to Ver
sailles to receive the order of tbe king.
Tbe choice of thl distinguished mil tary
genius as commander of tb Auxiliary
Army corps was due te Ibe suggestion of
Lafayette. General Rochambeau waa pre
ceded to America by Count dEtalng, who
bad been baffled by the English at Sa
vannah. Tbe unexpected resylt of thl ex
pedition, tbe ill success of" th attack la
South Carolina and tbe depreciation ot
paper currency this combination ot af
fair precipitated dire extremity and dark
despair.
Washington stands out a beacon of rea
son, philosophy and valor In this era of
discouragement. In one of bia remark
able letters urging tbe provision for the
half-pay of the American officer, when
tb war abould end ss an inducement to
retain tbe officer at tbe bead of their
regiment, be My: "Men may speculate
aa tbey will; they may talk of patriot lam;
tbey may draw a few example! from
ancient atone of great achievements per
formed by It Influence, but whoever builds
upon them a a sufficient baai for conduct
ing a long and bloody war, will find himself
deceived In tbe end. I know patriotism ex-
iats and I know it baa dona much In tb
present crisl. but I will venture to assert
that a great and lasting war can never
be supported on this principle alone. It
must be sided by a prospect of interest or
some reward."
This critical situation Induced congress
to solicit gain from ber ally land and
naval forces and moat urgent ot all
money. France agreed te send out a
squadron of ssven ship to cruise off tbe
coast of America. At first it Wa proposed
to aend 12,000 men. to be augmented te
20,000, but tboae figures wore greatly re
duced aubcequently. A corps ot 4,000 abl
troop and a considerable supply ot specie
were voted.
General Rochambeau . observed that the
body of men under hi command was toe
mall to act efficiently and at hie sugges
tion it was doubled, with secret instruc
tions from the king that tbe troops wer
te embark without definite knowledge
whither tbey were bound, and that the
troop should not be dispersed, but re
main tinder French generals and tb
French generals should b under the com
mand of Washington.
This expedition was te be followed later
in the year by a aecond division.
Tb French navy being unable to furotah
a sufficient number of transports, parti of
regiments were left behind. Oa May Z,
17B0, tbe first division left Brest with tb
regiment ef Bourbonnai. Solesetinsls
fiaintonge. Royal Deux Ponta. about (00
artillerists and 000 men of Lauxun's legion
00 ot whom were Intended te form a troop
of horses. Their troops, their effects, the
artillery and ether army necessaries wr
embarked on transport or aioreahtpa and
escorted by tbe seven ships of war and twe
frigates.

Importance aa tb vqtiadron under tbe com
mand cf Admiral Tereiy. Tber is a

heavy artillery and many passenger were
embarked on Fantasque, an old vessel, a
tore ship, intended a borpiul ship.
Tbe English fleet unOer Graves was
witching for the convoy, but their rout
through the pamage bet seen tb island
of Saint and the Beak of Ratt led from
the entrance of th channel and resulted
In disappointment to the expectant Eng.
lish. Two week previous to the starting
of tbe squadron Lafayette, who was re
turning to join tbe American army, sailed
on frigate from th island of Alt in
company with commissary of war
charged to announce the coming of the
squadron and provide for tbe landttg and
supplies of the French corps at Rhode
Island.
Oa tbe seventieth day from Brest. July
12. 1TP0, General Rochambeau and staff em
barked on Amason and sailed Into Newport.
Th arrival of tbe French troopa, while
Inferior In number to v. bat bad been an
ticipated, was hailed with grateful senti
ments by Washington and congress.
Lafayette was Impetuous and urged Wash
ington to begin aggressive measures st
once, even If the Engtsh did have tbe ad
vantage In numbers snd a stronger naval
force. But Count de Rochambeau' domi
nating trait discretion was admirably dis
closed tn a quiet, restraining letter to
Lafayette:
"It Is always well, my dear marquia, to
believe the French Invincible, but I am
going to tell you a secret. In sn experi
ence of forty year I bsve found none
easier to conquer than those wbo have lost
confidence In their leader, and they lose
that Immediately when tbey find them
selves sacrificed to one own particular
alms and personal ambitions. If I have
been ao fortunate to retain the confi
dence of my soldiers, it is only because
I am able to say. after a most scrupulous
examination of my conscience, that of the
15. 000 who bare been killed when under my
rommsnd I cannot reproach myself with
tbe death of a enngle soldier."
Reowest for Mere Mew.
As a result of a conference General Ro
chambeau sent his son back to France to
convey and explain to tbe minister tbe
want of hi own men and those of Wash
ington. General Rochambeau, in bis own
account of tbe independence ot tbe United
States, given a graphic statement of affair
at that time and a detailed tory ot the
part hi eon took In the history of tbe
wr.
"It bad been settled at tb conference In
Hartford that be should proceed thither
with tbe particulars and tbe result of an
interview, together with a memoir contain
ing the full account of the additional
troop, vessels and specie which were
needed. Tbe letter Item wss the more es
sentlal, as by heavy loans which bad been
contracted the pay of tbe troopa was pro
vided tor only until January L My son bad
commltteed to memory tbe whole of my
dispatches, eo as to be able to render full
verbal accounts to the ministers, lest be
should have the misfortune to fall into tbe
bands of tbe enemy, tbe dispatches be
taken from him and he be set at liberty on
parole.'
General Rocttambeau's on put to Bra Oc
fober 28, wltb M. de la Peyrouse. Tbey
passed through tbe midst of tbs English
ships during a gale of wind which pre
vented the English from following.
General Roc ham be a a continues: "M. de
la Peyrouse returned In February. We
learned that my son and be bad found on
tbelr arrival at Versailles, among other
things, that tho English, having declared
war on tbe Dutch, were taking them by
surprise in all their possession In which
tbey were unprotected; that France wa
making actlv preparation! to send out
both military and naval forces to tbelr as
