It waa strange to him, and was worried. That Fatal Teatk Diwn, Nina Innings had coma and gone; Dolan had died within a few feet of home; Messltt had broken Ms finger on a foul tip and Preston had acquired a aor spot In a falUng catch; tha mighty men from tha Kaw had reached second only to cling to It until all hope waa dead within their breasu. It was than the tenth dawned with a leer on lis face and east a cloud over the fortune of "Pa" Bill' cream colored brigade. Ulrlch sauntered to the bat, and, remembering the Kid' awful warning of that cut of $2 in hi wages If he didn't do something, spat on hi hand and swung at the balL But he fooiled and It failed to raise over the bunker, so he waa erased without further argument. Then Cable took hi goose neck putter from tha caddie bag and, crying "Fore." swung at the ball. It went flashing over tha diamond Into Joe Dolan' hand and he threw It low to 'Wright, who let it wander a little way through, so that tha base waa lost. Ketchum teed next and drove the ball fair over the bunker and the haeard and thereswera two on baaea Henderaoalaa Smile la Faint. Waldron did the same thing and Ben Henderson smiled unctlously, but faintly. His heart was sad and he had much to do. His foeman was a proud man and disdained the little shots, so he sent it high over the heads of the populace on the diamond and It fell Into Frank' handa out in the middle of the park. 8 till three on bases and wo men out! Every one began to breathe easier and a sigh of re lief went up when Ben got two strikes on the lusty fitrelb. But Btrelb waa game and let the ball come In and hit him on the funny bone. He fell like a forest giant with a might roar and then came In that one measly run. It was all, for Jacob flew out easy and quiet like. , There was still hope and the Rourkeltea .started out. Harry Welch was brought tip to bat for Henderson and, with the mem ory of that home run In the Knox game, he swung at the first ball that came out of the pitcher' bog and was on first wlth Out more ado. Then Carter sacrificed hinj to second and Oenfna tried to do his cap-Halh'e- part, (, but -feilM by flying -0t. Shugart was the sole dependence then and came . eagerly to the , fray. After many waitings- he flung himself upon on of Cable's, floaters and sent it out through .the clear, still air, but Mesaner watched It llngerlngly and declared that It was a foul, although there ars Rome that say he talked through his hat. So hack to the bat ccme Shugart and tried again,' but the fatea were In his way and the game waa lost in that fatal tenth. Today they will meet again and It may he that the rubber will fall to Omaha.

Naraet of Eighteen ThorongHreda. PREPARATIONS ARE GOING ON QUIETLY Last Season's Btar Horses Are Absent from the List, hot This Year'a Beat Will Ran In the Rvent. NEW TORK. Msy 2?.-Eighten thor oughbreds are named to start in the Brook lyn handicap tomorrow. The giants ot the American turf of last season are miss ing from the entries, but the best of those that have made this year remarkable al ready for great racing performances will slart. William C. Whitney's splendid nily Gunfire, will undoubtedly ht- the favorite, with oom Psul, Articulate, Yard Arm. Blues and Heno next to her In odds. Jockey Burns' flagrant disregard of orders In the race yeaterday In which Injunction ben Whitney's Girdle caused his suspen sion by his employer and little Fuller will probably have the mount on Gunfire. There have been ho phenomenal preparations fot the event so far aa the public Is Informed. Entrlea follow: Same of Horses. Blues. Hoar up, will carry 123 pounds, aix less than on Tuesday, when he was beaten two and a half lengths by Injunc tion at one and one-eighth miles In 1:54. Colonel BUI, with Rice up, 121 pounds on his back, has raced poorly and Is not considered a possibility. Francesco, 113 pounds, la making his first start of the Season. He has done well In preparation. Colonel Bill may be scratched, permitting Rice to ride Fran cesco. Old Herbert, 113 pounds, will undoubt edly be a factor at some point in the race. He seems to have lost, however. that Invincible rush at the end of a long race, which made him a popular favorite In other years. Bonnlbert, 116 pounds, McCue up, turned one and a quarter miles In 2:10V tn his trial yesterday. He has been repeatedly beaten this year by poorer horses than he meets tomorrow. Articulate, 114 pounds, might have been equal favorite with Gunfire but for his poor race with Oom Paul and Dorcaster. His defeat of Old England in the match raee raised great hopes for him In the big handicap. Larson will ride him and he may be the winner. Ills trial was In 2:00, the mile In 1:42. Heno, 113 pounds, wilt be guided by J. Martin. He waa worked privately in 2:08 on Tuesday. Igniter, 112 pounds, Haack tn the saddle. Is the hope of A. Featherstone, who won the Metropolitan and Brooklyn last year with Arsenal and Relna. Mr. Feather stone says Igniter's chances are second to none. He said that of Arsenal last year, but few paid attention to the prophecy. Igniter gave Oom Paul seven pounds and a sound beating last year when both wcrs at their best. Igniter's trial was one and one-half miles in 2:3S. ' Royal III. O'Neil up; is regarded as out classed at the distance. Gunfire III will be the queen of the day before the race at least, and many horse men regard her victory 'as assured. Her tremendous speed In the Metropolitan, the gameness with which she broke, the cour age of her challenges and her easy win at the end stamped her a natural favorite. Irish Lad, 103, showed an unsatisfactory performance In his trial, 3:14, for the dis tance, and may be an absentee. Oom Paul, 107, will have the services of Bultman, rider of many stake winners. He Is the horse Gunfire must beat, according to all ac counts. On Monday he turned the handicap tn 2:08 with such ease that the trainers said he could have done It In 2:06. In a recent race h merely played with Blues. at Blues' own game of killing off competi tors in sn early sprint, and at the end galloped home after his rigid test over Morris park's trying hill.

That Interview created a great stir at the time - and - was promptly cried down and repudiated by those from Wyoming hold ing high positions here, it would appear. however, that there la something In th wind after all, as Commissioner Richards has given Instructions that during hts ab sence all matters relative to forest re serve creations be held .n abeyance, as he has determined to look over the situation personally before taking further steps. He will also have a perianal consultation during the executive's Malt to Cheyenne and probably the entire queatlon of th creation of new forest reserves will b carefully gone over and th president have the advice of many who are thoroughly familiar with local wntlment In Wyoming and elsewhere regarding . these reserves. However, during th absence of Commis sioner Richards matters relating to forest reserves will b at a standstill In th department, here, Roatln Departments.
