at least one. It hae proved beond

una It warrunta tne hope that when the
team begins Us long home series this week
11 will also start on the upturn and will
get out of the hole. All along the 11m; the
team has been well spoken of, and Kansas
City waa especially generous in paying
tribute to the ability 01 the team. Lown
there It waa the generally expressed
opinion that Omaha ought to be noning
the leaders Instead trailing the buncn.
Uut that will come later. In explanation
of the affair at Uenver It need only be
cited that Daffy said Mesmer is a robber.
Omaha outuatted and outflelded the
Orlxzlea and lost by a more than double
Score. Wall till wo get home.
General Improvement la noticeable In the
play of the Individuals on the team during
the last week, and when the team gets
back to the standard It's going to t.ke
something better than the Western league
contains to keep Omaha back. All the
boys are hlttln better and the fielding li
nearly up to par again. Xt Is only in the
matter of working together that the team
Is weak, and thla cannot long continue, for
the boya are too well drilled to work at
cross purposes. Everything points to a
revival of the ancient glory of the team
and the downfall of some of those who
have been gloating over Its drooping for
tunes. Thla isn't a Jolly; it la simply
based on the record of the play of the
several games.
Harry Welsn la certainly making good
with the bat. Hia long drlvea have been
the feature of the gamea recently. With
a little more experience he la going to be
the malnatay of the team la aUckwork.
All the boya have advanced In thla
direction, though, aa the percentage table
will ahow. Carter la eUll a little behind
hia early aeaaon's promise, but Is getting
hi. v nn the ball satin: Wright has
picked up quite appreciably, and Dolan,
Hlckey, Qenlna and Oondlng are all doing
better. Hlckey played three gamea during
the week without an error, and made a
lilt In each one of them. Thla la a cauae
for rejoicing in itaelf. All signs are
favorable, and the fana are hopeful. It'a
up to the team now, and the team ought
to make good.
According to the wlaa onea there's
nothing to It but Milwaukee. One Denver
paper actually demanda that the Duffy
aggregation be split up and divided between
Omaha and Denver, in order that these
towns can have a better place In the atand
ing table. Such a proceeding would not
only be unjust to Milwaukee and the reat
of the league, but would be ridiculous in
the extreme. Suppose Milwaukee isn't
turning out the big crowds we would all
like to aee there; suppose the people there
do not appreciate the fact that they are
getting the beat kind ot base ball from the
Duffy aggregation; what kind of encourage.
ment would It be to better attendance there
to take the team .away? And, if the team
were divided up between Denver and
Omaha, what reason la there to suppose
that such proceeding would improve the
quality of ball being played at either of
those towns T On the other hand, Isn't It
more reasonable to think that the dlsrup
tlon of the splendid machine Duffy has
organised would result In poorer ballT The
players who are doing such excellent work
now wot Id lack the Incentive they have and
would fall Into lax and careleaa waye, and
Instead of the brilliant record they are male
Ing, would descend to the common plana
again. It la more reasonable to make an
effort to get the Omaha and Denver players
waked up and working together like Duffy's
men. That la the correct way to Improve
the alt jatlon. At any rate, don't be guilty
of the injustice to Duffy that la Involved
In the Denver proposition.
In the National league It'a hats off to
Pittsburg, and the wise guys insist that
the Plratee will not be headed again this
season. They put New Tork and Chicago
second and third, with a scrap for the
fourth place. It seem a little early to
name the winner of the pennant, and It
Isn't outside the range of possibility that
Pittsburg may be headed yet. McOraw la
putting hia team through a fierce pace just
now, and Is determined to make the leaders
hustle, and while Frank Selee la not using
the whip yet, he Is driving fsst and doesn't
propose to be entirely ahaken off. The
presence of George Davis with the New
Tork team, and without public protest from
Corr.lskey, Indicates that others are inter
sted In the outcome of the raoe besides
Pittsburg. In the American league the end
la still afar off. and there Is apparently
only one thing established, and that Is that
Comlakey's team Isn't fast enough to cut
SOCIAL
DISSIPATION
A young woman from a nearby town, who
waa recently visiting friends In Cleveland,
was taken sick at the theater. It became
necessary to call a doctor from the audi
ence, and one promptly appeared at the
manager'a office to render her assistance.
After learning her symptoms he ordered
her to taka a Red Raven Split. She waa
Bent home In her carriage. When the ex
citement waa all over the manager aaid to
the doctor: "I would serve Red Raven
Spllta to every ludy In my audience If I
thought it would keep them well." "That
Is not exactly the Idea," aaid the physician.
"This is a particular case. This young
weman haa been Buffering from too much
social dissipation. She haa been going
somewhere every night for the last two or
throe weeks, no doubt. A theater with
refreshments afterward, a party, a lata
dinner and decidedly too many luncheons.
Her system has become overtaxed. Had
aha occasionally taken a Red Raven Split
ah would readily have stood thla strain.
Aa It waa, aha allowed herself to break
down. There la nothing Ilka Red Raven
for people In her condition. But the trouble
la they do not know It."

the mustard. In the Hlckey league, Can
tllllnn Is still running easy In the lead, and
may stay there for a long time. It Isn't
a cinch for Josephus, for aome of the others
are fixing to give him a merry Jolt.
Lennon won a decldod victory when he
got a decision from the court that base
ball Is not a nuisance, and with It per
mission to build an uptown park. This
puts the game In St. Paul on a solid
foundation. Many earnest supporters of
th. game In Omaha still regret that the
Oate City Is not In that circuit, because
they feel that that la where we belong.
And thla makes us think. Of all the fool
ishness that has ben sent out over the
wires recently, the story about Kanaaa City
selling out to Sioux City is about the limit,
rI frlally when the i.ame of A. B. Beall
Is mentioned in connection with the deal.
The magnatea of the Western remember
the deal Beall gave them In the light with
the Hlckey cohorta last year. Beall held
the Minneapolis grounds, and when he was
left out of the Western circuit he sgreed
to hold the grounds, if the league would
pay the rent. With this understanding, and
the further agreement that he would not
have any dealings with the Hlckeyltes. the
Beall matter was supposed to be settled
Ooorge Tebeau bobbed up with a claim
thst he had not transferred the Broadway
grounds at Denver to Packard, and held
that he still owned a franchise In the
Western lesgue, after he had been for
mally expelled at the St. Joseph meeting.
What does Mr. Beall do but turn and trade
his Minneapolis lease to Tebeau for his
Denver lease, and try to hold up Packard
for the franchise. In view of this It Is
quite likely not that the Western magnates
will consent to give Beall a franchise at
Sioux City or anywhere else in the league.
A elmllar piece of misinformation was the
story that the Duffy team was to be trans
ferred from Milwaukee to Pueblo. And
while these stories are going the rounds, the
Louisville team, which waa such a money
maker laat year, la drawing crowds of 300
and 440 at home.
The statistics concerning the Omaha team
look a little better this week. Here they
are:

CHANGES IN FOOT BALL RULES
No More Mass Plays by L4
la the Center of the
Field.
The two most Important changes which
are to be made In the foot ball playing
rulea In the universities next fall elim
inates end ptaya with line men carrying
the ball In the center of the field and
gives the quarter-back the privilege of
carrying the ball In the fame territory.
No change la to be made In the rulea of
play governing the twenty-five yards near
est to the goal lines. In that territory the
same playing rulea that are now In force
will be operative. It Is to be noted, how
ever, that a lineman is permitted to drop
back If a back goes Into the line to take
hia place.
In general the two new rules are aimed
at the elimination of the tendency to
makr scientific mass and heavy forma
tions take the place of the old-time "open"
play. There has been a decided and in
creasing movement toward this end for
several years, not only among school and
college facultlea, who have telleved that
the present mass play la dangeroua to the
foot ball players, but also among graduate
players, who have believed that a return
In some measure at leaat to the old atyle
of open play would not detract from the
Intereat of the game, but would be Instead
greatly to the advantage of the spectator,
who Is hardly ever Interested In the
machinery of heavy formations, but who
Is anxioua to aee a running game.
To effect a cor.promlse the new rule
eliminating mass plays is not made to
cover tn twenty-five yards nearest the
goal lines, where. If a team chooses. It
can return to the now accepted atyle of
close formation In order to make the dis
tance In the last few yards.
The rule regarding the elimination of
mass playa In the middle of the field calls
for the constant presence In all playa of
all of the aeven linemen, ends, tackles,
guards and centera In their proper places
between the two twenty live yard lines,
with the exception, however, noted above.
There will be no guards-back tackles-back
or ends-back playa allowed between the
twenty-five yard line and the center of the
Held on either aide of the Held. The only
playa to be allowed in that territory will
be the usual back Held runs and line
plungea, and also runs by the quarter-back.
The new quarter-back rule permits the
player In that position to take the ball
for a run within the two twenty-five yard
lines, with the restriction that ha cannot
make hia distance within five yard of the
place where the ball la put In play.
Instead of the great variety of line-back
plays which the game haa seen developed
In the last five years, especially at Yale.
Pennsylvania and Harvard, there wlU now
be demanded a development of the back
field plays, with the result that "open" play
and much running with the ball will now
be the chief characteristic of the game.
In regard to the quarter-back, that player,
If he takes the ball, will, by the new rule!
be forced to make his try for distance out
aide or Just Inside the end positions, as
he cannot, by the new regulation, try for
a plunge through any holes that may be
made by the center guard or tackle men.
There la nothing in the new rules, how
ever, that will cut out the possibility of an
Infinite variety of "fake" plays, in which
the quarter-back and half-backs can figure,
and it la In thla feature that aome interest
ing developments may be expected.
While changing the character of the game
of foot ball aa It haa been played In the last
few years by the leading colleges. It Is
believed that the new rulea will be to the
great advantage of the spectators, and that
they will also operate to the advantage of
the weaker teams from the smaller col
leges, who have not until now had an equal
chance with a strong team from a large
college under the heavy formation rules.
Under the new rules the team with the
fastest back-field, supported by a good line,
wUl have much more chance to score
against a heavier team than formerly,
something that win be greeted by the
smaller eollegee with ratl flea tlon. In one
sense Tale and the other large eollegee
that have led the tendency toward heavy
formation tactics will lose by the new
rules, aa much more stress will now be laid
on generalship In the running game than
in heavy battering play, but it la believed
thst the great majority of colleges In the
country were in favor of eliminating the
close formation game, both on account of
the lark of Interest In it by the average
spectator and of the danger to players.
A change which will be greatly applauded
Is that of shifting some of the duties of
the umpire onto the shoulders of the lines
men, notably aa regards off-side play. In
recent matches it has been found to be
absolutely impossible for the umpire to note
and punish all off-side plays, and a great
many offenses that have not escaped the
attention of the spectators have been passed
over. In the future the linesmen will look
out for eff-Hlde play.
The compromise evident In the new rules
wss agreed upon by the committee after
many sessions. It Is desired that a suitable
comparison of open and mass plays may be
made, and to that end the two styles are
retained In the gume, where there will be
the bent possible chance for the spectators
to Judge between them. The rules are some
what, therefore. In the way of experiment,
each side expecting that the style of play
it favors will be demonstrated as superior,
and hoping that a new change may be
made next year which will make the game
either open or close, as the case may result.
Coach Stagg of Chicago saya of the foot
ball rule changes: "I believe the new rules
are not a move In the right direction. A
punting game will surely be developed, and
I think that neither the spectators nor the
players themselves will like the game.
Punting Is all right for awhile, but it gets
monotonous with too much of It. It will
be too hard on the players with merely four
men to do all the work of advancing the
ball."
FISHING ATTRACTS CITY MEN
Sport Is flood at the Lakes aed Many
There Be Who Enjoy
It Hugely.
The fisherman Is still somewhat of a
local sportsman as there have been more
of the tribe of fishers along the shores
of Manawa and Cut-Off than In Minne
sota, Wisconsin and Iowa the last week.
It has been so cool here nights that it
hardly seemed that the weather to the
northward could be really pleasureable for
fishing, so the fishers of a scientific turn
of mind have stayed home and waited.
And while they waited they have been
trolling and casting along the sandy shores
of Cut-Off and fishing from the piers at
Manawa with marked success. Bass end
crapple have fallen ready prey to their
wiles and the days spent near these quiet
waters so close to home have been filled
with pleasure and the strings were heavy
with the frulta of the rod.
A few of the local men who have wan
dered away to the clear, still waters of our
northern lakes have come home with stories
of many fish and easy catches. The fish
are not only plentiful, but they are large
and heavy. Lake OkoboJI and Spirit lake
in Iowa and Lakes Washington and Balsam
have been the favorites of the Omaha peo
ple who have gone away from home on
fishing trips. The latter place, so far hls
year, has been the most popular probably.
Several parties of local fishers have already
been there this year and much luck has
been theirs. The fish are there In great
abundance and they run around two pounds
In weight on an average. There are bits,
pike, pickerel and crapples In countless
abundance and they are easily Jured by
the wleldera of the rod. To one lucky man
at Balsam lake there has come the honor
of catching a seven-pound bass this year
and three and four-pounders are counted
In the day's run. If the annals of the re
turned fishers are to be believed. One of
the beauties of Balsam lake Is the accom
modations' which are exceedingly good and
more than reasonable. All of the wants of
the fishers are looked after and everything
la of the best and, withal, plain and home
like. The boats, the boatmen. In fact,
everything cutside of the fish that goes to
make up the Joy and comfort of the fish
erman, ia of the best.
TENNIS MAKESA FIRM STAND
Local Players Have Taken I'p the
Game with Enthusiasm that
la Encouraging;.
Two solid weeks of tennis end tennis
tournaments and another week of It still
ahead of us is a good sign of the way the
finger of popularity is pointing when It
comes to a summer game for every one.
And the tournaments that have been have
not failed to be all that had been expected
of them. In fact they were Just a little
better, had a few more men entered In
them and were watched by a few more
spectators than the most ardent of tennis
enthusiasts had hoped there might be. So
rapid has been the growth of tennis In
Omaha and ao strongly haa it taken Its held
on the people that It will take more than a
per clng flurry to even check Its growth,
much less stop It In Its forward career
Thla has been shown during the spring by
the growth in number of courts and also by
the betterment of many of the older courts
and now again by the enthusiasm In the
minor tournaments.
The Field club tournament of week before
laat waa the first tournament of the sea
son and proved a great atimulua to the
game there. The courts had scarcely been
put In shape- for play when the tournament
began and the men played with but little
practice, but they displayed a very fast
play for ao early in the season and there
la great promise of much faster play on
these courts thla year than last. There
were few matches that were not closely
played and the finals between Young and
Bctibner drew a large gathering of specta
tors on the club veranda, who were fas
cinated by the clever work of the con
testants. Scrlbner had the spectators with
him, because of his youth and inexperience
in the game. But Young's play waa too
faat and too clever for the university boy,
who lost his head occasionally. The deuce
gamea went to Ycung Invariably and there
were many of them. Young Is an older
player and plays a beautiful game, grace
ful and heady, and haa only one fault, hia
nervousness In match play.
Then followed the playing of the singles
In the City handicap tournament on the St.
Croix courte. Again the entries swelled
far beyond the expectations of the club and
the week only saw the playing out of the
singles, while the doubles, with the excep
tion of a few games, were held over until
thla week. These courts were In superb
shape and promise fair to rival the Field
club courts, which are as fine aa any west
of Chicago. With thirty-five entries it wss
necessary to play the earlier mntrku
on all five of the courts, and for two hours
every night the courts were filled with
tournament players.
It was hardly expected that the players
could be so well handlcanneri
them were practically unknown and It was
nara ror the committee to know how good
their play was and so some suffered
slightly from being given less than they
were deserving of. while others were fa
vored beyond their deserts. One thing
showed up psrtlcularly with reference to
handicapping, and that la that no man
should be given a handicap of thirty. It
Is felt that It would be wiser to make the
standard of play a little less high and make
the scratch men owe rather thsn dole out
a thirty handicap to the players who re
ceived this In the tournament. A thirty
handicap ties the opponent down to a
ure game which gives hint no opportunity
to try any strokes that are not absolutely
certain, aa the first point against him Is al
most certain of b.lng fatal. The handicaps
proved to be fairly well placed and there
waa little dissatisfaction with them. The
play throughout wss exceedingly close and
left a goodly collection of the beat players
In the tournament in the rinsing matches.
A few of them were counted out early as
the drawings came out ao that several of
the best playera were matched against men
of their own class In the first round. This
made the first round especially Interesting,
but detracted somewhat from the Interest
of some of the later matches.
It waa no little surprise to see Vernon
Chase lose to Scrlbner, aa the St Croix
men had felt certain that he would win
handily from Scrlbner. Then Packard
turned around and beat Scrlbner readily
enough. That was another surprise, ss It
was confidently expected that Scrlbner
could defeat Packard, as he Is a much
younger man and plays a very clean game
with lota of life In It.
The organisation of the Omaha I .awn
Tennla association haa moved slowly, but
there Is little doubt but that another week
will find It taking Its place In city tennis
affairs. With such of the older men as
Con Young, Sam Caldwell, Frank Haskell
and Dr. Van Camp back of the movement,
along with all of the younger element,
there can be no doubt of lta auccess. On
Wednesday evening of this week they will
meet to further complete their organiza
tion and to take up the matter of a city
tournament, which will be held early In
July. It la expected that the singles In
this will be held at the Field club and the
doubles on the St. Croix courts or vice
versa. By this srrangement It Is believed
that even grenter Interest can be aroused
than by having the entire tournament
played on one set of courts.
SCOOT WAGON RACES TODAY
Local ChnotTenrs Will Try Driving
Tlielr Machines for Speed
This Afternoon.
The first automobile races ever held In
Omaha will be run off this afternoon on the
half mllo track of the Omaha Driving as
sociation nt Twentieth end Taylor streets.
Not only will there he automobiles, but
motorcycles and bicycle races us well. The
list of entries for the race this afternoon
Is very good, considering the short time In
which the arrangements have been made
and the fact of Its being the first attempt
of Its kind In the state. The drivers of the j
machines are entirely Inexperienced In rac
ing and many of those entered have never
driven their machines at their highest rate
of speed. Again, there Is little accurate
knowledge among the owners of the ma
chines as to the power of their machines
and no way to compare them ao that the 1
element of uncertainty In the race will be
a feature of Itself.
The automobile races have been divided
up In three classes snd will be raced ac
cording to classes. For the electric auto
moblles there will be a one-mile race with
about six entries. The gasoline and steam
machines, ranging from four to eight
horse-power, make another class and will
compete in a five-mile race, while all of
the machines will be In a five-mile handi
cap. Besides these races state records will
be made with the automobiles and motor
cycles. At present there are no state rec
ords and the making of these records will
be of gTeat Interest. In the record-making
the large road machlnea will come to the
front as there are several of them in
Omaha and Council Bluffs that are capable
of thirty-five and forty mllea an hour.
The five-mile motorcycle race will be of
even more uncertain qualities than the aut
omobile races ns the few machines In
Omaha and Council Bluffa are of varying
gears and none have ever been forced to
their ultimate speed power. It Is wonder
ful to watch a race between riders of these
machines as they are built to go nt a
speed scarcely ever realised by the man
who rides a bicycle. The bicycle races
have a number of men entered In them and
Include a one-mile boys' race for boys un
der 16, a one-mile race open to all entries
and a three-mile handicap. For all of the
bicycle races there are three prtxea In
each race, and a cup will be glyen in the
different automobile and motorcycle races.
The races are aet to begin at 3 p. m. and
a small admission fee will be charged spec
tators. It Is understood that Colonel Pope, the
bicycle manufacturer, will begin a crusade
of advertising next splrng to bring the
bicycle back to the front after several
years of retrogression. Advertising may
bring It back somewhat Into popularity,
but those who take It up now will be the
younger generation, as the older generation
dropped it some years ngo because they
tired of It and the wheel clubs, century
runs, moollght rides and all of the other
social and sporting paraphernalia of the
wheel died out with the enthusiasm of the
riders, so that today it is used only us
a means of traveling where It Is better
or cheaper than street cars or a horse. It
Is doubtful If any amount of advertising
can bring a new generation to believe as
implicitly In its desirability aa the old ones
did six or eight years ago, but advertising
will probably bring It back Into use some
what. How long a revival In wheeling will
last 1st hard to determine, but hardly aa
long aa coaster brakes, acetylene lamps and
greatly reduced prices kept It In the fore
front scarce six years before.
What the bicycle waa alx years ago In
popularity the automobile and the motor
cycle promise to be within another alx
years. As many of them will never be In
use aa there were of bicycles, ss the cost
precludes that possibility, but they are cer
tainly becoming exceedingly popular with
those who can afford them. The prejudice
against and the fear of automobiles and
motor-cycles is instinctive rather than real
and persons who are against them change
their views almost aa soon as they ride
a few miles In them. Such haa been the
case In Omaha and many of the machines
on the streets today are driven and owned
by persona who aaid six months ago that
they could never be brought to use one,
much less own It. Peculiarly, too, the very
persons who have taken the greatest dis
like to them are the persons who drive
horses and could well afford to use them if
they so desired.
Chicago's Army ef Lawyers.
According to the Chicago law Directory
for 190, Just Issued, there are 4,702 attor
neys In the city. In the last year 1-0 at
torneys left the city, twenty ceased the
practice of law and thirty-two died. The
Increttse In the number of lawyers wss 830.
There were more office chsnges among the
lawyers this year than usual, about 30 per
rent of the profession having located In new
quarters. The number of offices have not
Increased to any extent, as most of the
newly admitted attorneys associated them
selves with established lawyers. There are
about 1.300 law offices In Chicago, an aver
