A, Tna Ha Soma Imporltil Hatches on Its Mat Already u4 Will ttet Horn Others. New Year's day narks the beginning of the basket ball season, and la college and erymrvaslum circles generally everything In the way of athletic contests Is now sub ordinated to tbat game. For some weeks past the construction of tha permanent personnel of the different tea'ma baa been la process by means of elimination, and bow tha picked lucky onea ara far along toward ths mastery if their own chosen Intricacies of team play. This sport seems to be growing steadily each winter stason and H baa now ba cons well known gains practically every where In this country. Tha colleges have doubtless been most prominent la bring ing It strikingly before the public notice, bat tha local gymnasium In the different eltlea have aleo played a big part. It waa only a few yeara ago that the word basket ball arouaed Inquiries aa to Ita na ture and prerogatives, but now every boy knows the rules by heart. Omaha la to have Ita good ahare of Im portant baaket ball games thia winter. The first team of tha Young Men'a Chris tian assoclstton haa Ave contests arranged for the home gymnasium, and will play bout as maay abroad. In addition to that Hat there are a good many minor games arranged between the different teams at the association, which will also 'offer keen sport, aa tha rivalry there Is .vary keen. Basket ball acbedulea are alow In mak ing, so tbat not all the datea for tha Omaha games are yet settled. The aport la not yet developed to that degree where. Ilka foot ball, datea can be nade a year or two In advance and then rigidly adhered to. Teama which plan trips do so always mora or less tentatively, aa It is never assured until after the aeaaon haa atarted whether or not the Journeya can be taken with financial aucceaa. It ia now almost certain that January 20 next will open the aeaaon of tha big games here with a eon test between the association team and the .Haskell Indians. Neat will be Kanssa university on February , than the Unl verslty of Nebraska and following that the fiioux City team, the Topeka, Kan., team, tha team of the Kanaaa City association and another game with the Lincoln asso ciation. Between these dates the local association Diana to clay return gamea with each one of these teams in turn, though It Is not positively settled that they will Tlalt all tha olacee. If carried out entire, tnie wm make a very full and atrong echedule. and even with a few gamea cut there wilt be much good sport left. The personnel of tha local first team la almost tha same aa It waa last year. With only one change In tha lineup, grand team work la promised. Hanson will be back at hi a old position of center. Tha Wlllard brothers will be playing tha two guarda with their old-time reliability and ateadl Bess, C. Wlllard on tha left aide and O. Wlllard oppoalte htm. Jardlne, laat year'a captain, will again be at left forward and It la aald that his game la fiercer and faater than over. Oppoalte him 'will be Ous Miller, tha new eapUln, and tha new member on tha team. Tbeae men make a very atrong- quartet and will doubtless defend the laurela of tha association for all there la In the game. The selection of this team waa not' at all arbitrary There were fifteen candldatea for tha honor and all . good man- This wealth of atar material gave the' beat aort of opportunity to chooae a really atrong team and the fact that ao many of laat year'a men were picked Is due solely to their superiority. Experience and team work told, but. each one waa given a run tor his place by at least two candldatea. The ten left- over, meanwhile, gava an opening for the formation of a aecond team of very high grade; ao good, in fact, that It la not to be called the aecond team, Soma other name will be chosen. It haa several gamea scheduled already with teama that would hardly ba atrong enough to go agalnat tha first team. On tha whole, the team that will rep re aent tha aasooiatlon this winter la a little ahead of anything tha organisation hat been able to boast - for soma yeara and great hopes ara entertained of Ita record to ba mada during tha aeaaon.

Tha first four teams In the Hat when the i aeaaon closes on March 19 will get money prises. To the leader goes tne trophy and $50. Second place drawa 125. The third team gets $15 and the fourth $10. Then the team that rolls the highest three game's total in a single night geta $10, and the team tbat makes the highest single game score a night geta $10. Tbat makes seven prises for the teama, and there are five Individual offerings as well.

He who haa rolled the highest single score for one game receives $10 and the aame rum goea to the man rolling the highest total score for three gamea in one night. All this makes a nice little bunch of prises which add to the seat of tha aport. Boxers start their game Good Match Fixed for Month Omaha and Others la Pros pect. It Is now practically assured that about January 15 tha local sports are to be treated to as fierce a mill at fisticuffs aa haa been seen In these parte for many i day. Eddie Robinson, manager of Clar ence English, says that the go arranged between that boy and Kid Broad of Chi cago la now cinched, and that it will be pulled off In the old Red Light theater at South Omaha, tha arena In which many a fight, good, bad and indifferent, haa been fought In recent yeara. After ao long a stsgnant period at the boxing game this la welcome news Indeed to the devotee of the rope enclosed canvas, Almost any old kind of a fight would ba a Joy at this time, and the prospect of auch a stem winder aa tha coming affair prom ses to be Is putting the pug patrons on their toes with expectation. It will be man of undoubted prowess and estab lished reputation against a youngster of unusually good heart, great atrength and a fierce and constant attack. concerning Broad's fighting little need be aald. He haa been holding his own with the best of the featherweighte for long enough to gain name and fame. But English can atand a little touting, and ha deserves It. First, he la an Omaha boy and only a year ago or ao waa a local amateur of the mat and ring. Early in the wrestling game ba became a wonder at his weight, but at that he always boxed better than he wrestled. From the first Eddie Roblnaon. had him in charge, and aince English made hta first ring appear ance in a four-round "kid" preliminary last winter thirty-one fights have followed no a targe proportion or these were against good men, but ba It aaid to the credit of tha young featherweight that he has never known defeat nor a draw, has never been knocked down, baa never, aa far aa could ba teen, been dased, and has never been made to falter or waver for a moment. After having fougt-t and de feated auch men aa Dick Oreen, Eddie Bantry, Oscar Gardner and Billy Shannon, Engiisa cannot be said to be untried, yet in another aense all these victories came ao easily that It cannot be aald that hia mettle haa yet been thoroughly tested. Not even Robinson himself will assert that cleverness Is English's strong bold Ho is not clever, but he la a fighter, and la furthermore the most aggressive party in a ring that one can Imagine. His styl it to go after hia opponent from the first gong and never atop till he haa got him. He aeems to mind a punch not at all, and withal has some terrible blows of his own both while Inside and at longer range. All In all, the go to come should be one Interesting affair, and with the prellmln arlea planned the evening will be locally a memorable one. The men are to make 126 pounda and twenty rounds Is the limit set. It Is probable tbat both will try to cut that down all tbey possibly can. The referee for thia fight haa not yet been aelected, but an endeavor will be made to aecure Patsy Magner of Yankton, 8. D. Magner la familiar with the game, be cause he baa been actively mixed In It in hia time. Moreover, he haa demonstrated on other occasions that he knows hia business aa a referee, and also tbat he doea It. Two other Omaha fighters ara now lined up for matchea which ara to occur In the very near future. Billy Rhodes, tha popu lar welterweight, haa finally agreed in hia uaual reckless fashion to meet Tommy Ryan, tha middleweight, at St. Louis before Danny Daly'a new club. Thia looks like a long ahot for Rhodea, but ha haa decided to go In at catch weights, aa Ryan insisted, and take hia chancea. These would seem to ba about what a man stands with loaded dice. This mill Is set for January It. Spike Leroy, the boy who recently moved OF- JSdison Columbia A.lao JDso Miichlnoa. to St. Joseph from here, has arranged to glvo Kid Broad a warming-up there for hia fight with English here to follow. The date aa now understood Is January t. The men are signed for twenty rounds. There Is no conceivable dope that would dare to prophesy tbat Fplke will go more than two or three of these save for sufferance. This would seem to be a very unwise match for tbe budding and ambitious St. Joseph club to have made. On form Spike haa no show with Broad, and about one more momentary fight will end the game there. Tha local sports were none too well suited with the way In which Rhodes outclassed Marlon Mc Intyre there on December 15, arid they are crying for an even match now. BASE BALL IN THE WINTER TIME Peace Conference Falls Throngh Be came the National Falls to Make Good. It'a all off. Back to the woods for the gentle dove ot peace, and on with the merry war of the magnates. Ban Johnaon aaya there will be no conference at Cincinnati tomor row and no further negotiations for peace from hia end ot the fight Ha Insisted that the National conferees coma to the meeting clothed with full power to act. This was desired by President Herrmann of the Cincinnati team, who la chairman of the National committee, but the other magnatea couldn't aee It that way. So Mr. Johnson very naturally declines to go Into a conference which can result In nothing. This outcome will be learned with regret by every lover of the game. All had looked forward to Cincinnati with fond hopea of peace, and the prospect waa most encouraging. While the American league had named Mr. Johnson as a committee of one with full power to act, ha had asked to come with him Messrs. Comlskey of Chicago, Somera of Cleveland and Killlea ot Boston, making a committee of four of the brainiest men In base ball today. For the National league the committee waa made up of Messrs. Herrmann of Cin cinnati, Hart of Chicago and Roblson of St. Louis, three men In whom the base ball world has confidence. It Is undoubt edly due to the influence of tha Brush-Bllllngs-Rogsrs faction that the meeting baa failed. Just what these men can hope to gain by a continuation of the fight it not easily seen. In Boston and Philadel phia the American haa the National skinned forty ways, and Just aa aura aa the American starta in at New York the Brush-Freedman combination will ba put to the bad. From a business standpoint It looks aa if the National had made an other of the blundera that haa marked Ita every etep In dealing with the American league. Ordinarily, when people can not be reached In any other way, they can ba reached through tha pocketbook, but la thia case It la different. The National league puree haa become flatter and flatter each year alnce the war started, and atlll tha magnatea refuse to make any move that will check the drain. In the mean time, public sympathy is with the Ameri can. Mr. W. T. Van Brunt, who "strides a puny world like a colossus," made a little ex cursion from St. Joseph to Chicago the other day, and at once the pipe wreathe began to lake the form ot a Western league team on Comlskey's White Stocking park. Probably the next time Mr. Van Brunt goea to New York we will hear of the Western league invading Gotham. But right here The Bee wants to enter a pro test against the statement that cornea out every time Van Brunt'a name la mentioned, that be "financed" the Weatern league last summer and mads it possible to fight tbe American association. Aa a matter of fact, the Western league needed no financing. Mr., Van Brunt and Mr. Burns of Colorado Springs promised that they Weald foot the bills If the league failed to pay out. Aa every team In the league except Kansas City paid out, no bille were left over to foot. And aa the expenses of tbe league were met by the teams, there was no need ot financial assistance from any aource. Omaha and Denver paid the expenses of tbe Western league last season by their mag nlflcent support. More people paid their way into one Sunday game at Omaha than went through the pay gatea In any one month at St. Joseph. This talk about W. T. an Brunt "financing" the Western league makea the real supporters of the game tired. And then It doesn't give Tom Burns show, either, and that'a wrong. Tom is certainly entitled to something for the talk he put up last summer. Meantime, tt'a up to Omaha and Denver to turn out the crowds sgain. Suddenly the talk about the raids that Joe Cantllllon waa making on the Cali fornia league haa ceased. Here'a a tip on those lada: An offer from an eaatern magnate la a good thing to flaunt in the faoe of a coast manager once In a while. Some ot these times the coast managers will get "wised up proper" and then some alleged atara of the game In California will have to work or walk. Byron McKlbben will manage Tacoma next summer. He will have Russ Hall with him. There'a a mighty good pair gone from the Weatern. McKlbben waa a good manager and Hall waa the only real ball player on the St. Joe team last aummer. Big Bill. Wilson haa trapped Dave Calhoun and Buck Thell for hia Peoria push, and gtvea It out cold that he will be In the money all tha way around the courae. CURLERS MAY BUILD A RINK Omahn Followers of the Roarln' Game to Have Permanent Tee. A curling rink is planned for Omaha. The Omaha Curling club contemplates building such a place and will hold a meet Ing Monday night at 1608 Howard atreet to take Immediate atepa In the matter If Ita feasibility becomes apparent at tbat time. The rink wtll be built on aome location close In down town, so that It will be within easy reach ot the business men. The dimensions ot the rinks will require a hous Ing fully 166 feet long and forty feet wide. Accommodations tor equipment and playing toola and clothes would be arranged within. The Curling club haa at present thirty members, all actively interested in the sport. The weather condition here have alwaya made the matter of good lea very uncertain, even with the coldest tempera ture prevailing. The rink would obviate all tbia, offering a perfect aheet of ice aa long as the cold laated. It would also bring tbe game within easy dlatsnce, ao that curl- era could Indulge every day Instead of once a week or fortnight. They would, further more, be protected from the weather, which la no amall Item. Not much difficulty ia anticipated in mak Ing the necessary arrangementa to defray the expenses of constructing the rink house. It Is planned to have two rlnka, each ot which must ba five yarda by fifty. Tbe place would be much on the aame plan aa a bowling alley, with ice In place of polished Boors. Tha Curling club anticlpatea taking in many new members If tha rink la coo atructed, aa athletically Inclined men are certain to become Interested In tbe game when Indulgence Is mada ao easy and pleas urable. At Minneapolia and fit. Paul curl Ing rinks are suoceasf ully .conducted. Thus far thia winter the curler a have la THE WILSON DISTILLING Baltimore. Md dulged but four tlmea In their favorite pas time. Thanksgiving day was the first, then early In December the second, while the third and fourth occasions were Christmas and New Year'a daya. It had been planned to make tbe New Year'a event a big affair, with tha Troup Point medal and Forgan'a atlver cup as trophies. The ice was too bad to allow of any auch championship con tests, however, and the only curling done that day was a match between rinka aklpped by R. 8. Melvln and Jamas C. Lindsay. After a very cloae game Melvln won by 4 points. Most of tbe devotees of the game aeem very enthusiastic about the covered rink proposition. One of tha biggest advantages next to that of good tee all tha time la that It will make poaaible curling at night. With good lighting the game la easily handled after dark, and la as plaaaant aport aa akatlng by moonlight. Thia will give men more time for the game, aa In thia busy country people do not have time enough In daylight. In discussing thia point Mr. Lindsay said: "Of course, one would never expect to aee any great proficiency at curling here. People do not have time enough. Here men work until 5 o'clock every day and till 6 on Saturdays. In Scotland aa soon aa curl ing begins no man will work after 1 o'clock. know an old cobbler whom I have aeen leave hia ahop while in the midst of cob bling a pair of ahoes for which a customer waa waiting barefooted. Nor would he re turn and complete the Job till darkness stopped bis game with the "stanea." In Canada, too, more time ia devoted to curl ing, and In aome eaatern citiea in thia coun try, but not out here." SQUASH CLUB IS STILL ACTIVE Towns; Men Who Began tha Apart Keep It I'p with Great Tint. Laat winter a score or mora of tbe young men of the upper ten organised a Squash club in Omaha, aecured quarters, equip ment, conveniences and then played the game with persistence all during the cold season. Thia winter finds the club experi encing even more ot a revival than the most, aanguine expected. A few short months at thia fascinating Indoor game was sufficient to. win permanent devoteea among those Inclined to athletics of the more strenuous sort, and aa a consequence tha lite of tbe sport here aeems noW aa- aured. Tbe same quarters have been retained, on the second floor ot the building at 10$ South Fourteenth atreet, but they have been further Improved. The building of a new back wall, or face, la an important feature, giving a mora solid playing front. The vlsitora' gallery haa also been altered and enlarged, ao that considerable gatherings can now be accommodated at contests perched up high above the arena out of harm'a way. Ia membership there haa been aome change, which on tha limited roll makea quite a difference. Some of the charter members have dropped out. The purpose of the club Is not to let Its mem bership exceed twenty-five men, ao there ia no difficulty In keeping the lists full. Two rising players ara found among tha new recruits. They are W. T. Burna and "Spike" Kennedy. Each haa caught the tiang ot the play remarkably well In the short time since the season began, and either bids fair to give the older cracks a run for honors before the winter closes. The usual monthly tournamenta are being adhered to again thia season. One i held in November and another In December. Sam Burna won both ot them, N. P. Dodge, jr., being hia opponent In the final round of the aecond affair. It waa discovered, In both these contests, that the aame players who led the game last wlntsr were again tbe ones to stick up to tbs late rounda. It grew to be a aafa bet aa to what four would ba la the aemi-flnals. To avoid this and to make competition keener It has been decided to make the tournamenta handicap affairs hereafter, for a time at least. This will give the weaker playera an even chance with the otbera. providing the handicapping ia Judicious. It will enhance tha Interest and make competition more arduous. In the first tournament thia winter there were twelve entries. Tha aecond drew sixteen namea. It la expected that fully twenty will participate In tha January affair, which will begin aa soon aa the bonders ara well over with. Established 1823 WD.L WC0Q CO. WORK ON MISSOURI RIVER Coxmfcsion Makes Beport to Congress on It Final Effort. PERMANENT CHANNEL FOR THE BIG MUDDY Morn Good Haa Been Accomplished Already Tkrosfh the Policy , ot Protection of Banks Adopted by Engineers. The annual report of the Missouri River commission for the fiscal year ending last June baa Just come from the goverment printing office and ia of mora than passing Interest from the fact that the commission saya that by reason ot the repeal of the law creating tbe commission this Is tha last annual report, and for thia reason, probably, tbe commissioners give a short resume ot the history of tbe commission from its organisation, July 5, 1884, and a brief outline of the policy ot the commis sion since that time. On the latter point It says: The policy may be stated, in a few words, to be a continuous, progressive control ot the river, contracting It where necessary, giving the channel proper direction and se curely holding It In place. On that part of the river in tne nrsi reacn, wnere continuous work was done, under what la called aystematlc Improvement, the results reached were remaraauie. A continuous channel of not less than elx feet depth at low water was obtained In a stretcn or about forty-five miles of river on what was originally one of the worst parte of the river, in tne vicinity oi tne moutn oi in. Osage. In addition to thia forming of a channel, much new land waa formed and murh land protected from destruction by the river. To Illustrate this, it may be stated that In the distance ot only eighteen miles in the vicinity of Jefferson City the area of new land formed by the rectifica tion works amounted to 5.BW acres, ana fh arc nf lund nrnterted wan 12. acres Computing this at a fair price of $60 per acre, the sum of $l.0O0. or over 160,000 per mile of river, was added to the wealth of the country aa Incidental to the im provement of navigation.

Bet wen Sioux City and Ita mouth, a dis tance of 8U0 miles, It borders forty-six counties. In theae forty-six counties the population aggregates 1.473.670, and on Its banks there are over mi ciuea ana towns. Including one city of over leo.OOO, two of over 100,(ioo, one of over BO.ono, four of over niooo. 2tif.it). 110.000 and lft.OoO. respectively three of more than 7,000 ana less man 10,000. five of more than 2.600 and less than (.000. and twenty of more than 600 and leaa man x.bui. it naa a volume oi now ar all tlmea sufficient for channela of not leas than five feet depth at bloua City, and elht in ten feet at the mouth, If the amount of Its exisUng commerce is to be irsed aa the measure of its worthi ness for Improvement, It might ao well, as has been factloualy proposed, be wiped off the map of internal Improvements. If Ita capacity for Improvement and tha pos lblllt ies of Ita use aa a nignway lor cneap transportation for a very laree section of country and a numerous population be considered, its worthiness takes high rank. Pretest Against Policy. Running through the entire report there la a protest against tha policy pursued by congress In ths matter of tha Improvement of the river. In tbe opening paragraph the commission saya: "Unfortunately for the Improvement, the commission for the greater part of tha time of Ita existence bss not been permitted to carry out Ita policy, except with auch limited amounta of the yearly appropriations aa to render progress exceedingly alow." And mora than once it speaka In tha aame vein, particularly when It -refers to congressional action which re quired the commission to extend specific sums from tbe annual appropriation for work at certain polnta, far removed and en tirely disconnected from the ayatematle work of the oommlsalon referred to above. Theae apeclflo expenditures, It admits, were sometimes necessary, but ahould have been provided for outside ot tha regular appro prlatloo of the commission, becauaa the scattering of tha work required an addl tlonal expense In tha employment of super intendents, clerks and operation ot dla tlnct plants, which extra expense haa been paid from the funda otherwlaa available for systematic work. It cloaea Ita proteat against the action of congress by aaytng: Congress created the commission with tha supposed purpose of making an extensive and effective Improvement of the river. The commission has carried out this pur pose with seal and with fidelity to tha ex- SK1Y. That's All ! tent that was possible under congressional restrictions, and a much greater develop ment of the general Improvement of the river would have been attained If the money appropriated for the river could have been expended for the purpose. As congress has not deemed It advisable to continue the work upon a scale and In a manner to make an effective general Im provement, there Is, of course, no longer necessity for the existence of the commis sion. Monte Final Recommendations. Tbe commission recommends that a pro vision be made for the operation of a snag boat on the river, similar to the provisions made for other . rivers, not to exceed the sum of $85,000 per year, and In addition aaya: And the commission desires to state that it makes no recommendation for any ap propriation whatever other than for the operation of snagboat, unless It can bs made In a manner to permit or us applica tion to a thorough systematic Improve ment of the river. While If the syxtematlc work referred to can be taken up it would recommend the spproprlatlon of $1.000,ouo a year for the work between Jefferson City and the mouth ot tne river until tnat is complete, at a coat estimated from $8,000,000 to $3,600,000, leaving the question or tne de velopment of the river above Jefferson City to future consideration. Expenditures on All Work. Accompanying tha report ia a statsment ot the disbursements of the commission from the time of ita organization, showing that It haa expended on the Missouri river since 1884, the sum of $7,168,248.68; on tha Osage river, $361,032.31, and on tbe Gas conade river, $26,138.11, making a grand total of expendlturea for all purposes of $7,689,687.81, and a balance on hand at the cloae of tha year of $6,782.14. In the description of works carried on at the various polnta of tha river it shows that ot tha aggregate aum mentioned 1404, 794.19 waa expended at Omaha and Council Bluffs, $80,496.12 at Sioux City, $67,747.10 at Nebraaka City, $104,998.06 at Rulo, $38. 669.98 at St. Joseph, while tha remainder was expended at varloua polnta In tha atata of Missouri, $2,609,700 having been ex pended ' on the systematic development of the "first reach," that part of the river from the mouth to Jefferson City. During the yesr 1901 669,669 tons of mer chandise of all ktnda were carried on the Missouri river, 72,839 tons on the Osage river and 19.460 tona on tha Gasconade river. .
