I
About forty-five members of the Omaha
Heal Estate Exchange, In the presence
of a large number of friends and a still
larger number of small boys from the
north end of town, played a new game,
or a combination of a number of games
and sports on the Toung Men's Christian
association grounds at Seventeenth and
Flnkney streets yesterday afternoon. The
port commenced at I o'clock and ended
a few minutes before S o'clock, by which
time all those taking part and also all
the spectators were ready to quit and
go home.
ftora start to finish the sport waa In- and Dave told him to go ahead or he would
tereating and at times exciting. It was I not give him any good marks. And he
than before he waa hit. Everybody said
it was mean for Eddie to hit Willie In
the head, but Eddie said that waa the
bnly place he could hit Willie, for when
Willie was measured before the games
started It was found that he was 8 feet
and I Inches long but only 64 Inches wide,
so his head was the biggest part of him.
Before he was hit Willie stood with his
feet far apart and let all the balls go
through between his legs, but after he
m hit he kept his feet together and
topped them. Bome of the boys who only
played with their voices wanted Eddie
Btoltenberg to hit the other lean boys In
the head and make them play better, but
he would not do It because he wanted the
fat boys to win.
Johnnie Robblns didn't hit the ball at
all, but about the eight round he did the
best tumbling of all of them. He ran to
catch a ball, and did catch it just as It
was touching the ground. Then he turned
a front somersault and then two side
somersaults, and then after a while he
quit rolling around and got up. But he
held onto the ball so the boy that hit It
could not play any more that round.
Joe Piper stopped the game one time
when It waa his turn to hit the ball and
asked Dave Patterson if anybody was
counting balls. There waa only one ball
due to the excitement that no name. was
given It but a special committee will be
appointed at the next meeting of the ex
change to llnd, if possible, a name suitable
to It.
More than half of the real estate men
present elected to play simply with their
feii in. and acted as Interrupters. Inter
fere and Incompetents during the entire
game. A gentleman who watched the
l sports from a house about a block away
declared that he thought they were act
' lug the part of Idiots, Imbeciles, and ln
' ebriates, but on being quet1oned closely
admitted that he had dyspepsia.
Captains Choose Sides.
The fun wes started by Willie Bhriver
and Willie Gutea, each selecting eight
other boys for a "side." Willie Bhriver
had first choice and said he liked the fat
boys best so he took Willie lire, Eddie
Btoltenberg. Johnnie Frenxer, By Hastings,
Wllllo Thomas. Bertie Farmalae and Hen
Dalley for his side. Willie Gates said he
would take the lean boys so he picked
out Frankle v Haskell, Blakey McKltrick.
Btanny liostwlck. Freddy Wead. Eddie
Blater, Nate Dodge, Johnny Robblns and
Joe Piper for his side.
Willie Shrtver slipped Bertie Parmalee
Into his side when Willie Gates was not
. looking, for Bertie Is not a real estate
t man at all, but a newspaper man. Willie
Gates was game all the way through and
. did not roar at all, even when Bertie ran
around all the stations four times, which
waa once more than any of the real es
. tate men. Dave Patterson was relucted
to keep a record of the sports, and so that
everything would be regular Assistant Sec
'" retsry Jones of the Young Men's Christian
! association, was sejected as referee, and
Lew Bholes was delegated to assist him
and see that the runners stepped on all
the bags at the stations when they were
, running around.
Eddie Btoltenberg and Willie Ure were
elected to throw and catch the balls for
the fat boys, and Blakey McKltrick and
Frankle Haskell to throw and catch them
for the lean boys. Eddie and Willi were
a whole lot better than Blakey and
Frankle. I-on Tukey, Ras Benson, Georgte
Wallace, Willie Green, Georgle Holbrook
and soma of the other boys who played
with their voice said it was because they
had the biggest bo to back them up and
bad Bertie Parmelee on their side.
Kat Hoy Hits Lean Boy.
Druggist Kuhn. who has a contract to
attend all the games played by the mud
pie boys, and Dr. Fred. F. Teal were pres.
nt. but only a little cold water and some
witch hasel wre required. This was about
the fourth round, when Eddie Btoltenberg
of the fat boys threw a ball and hit Wl'lte
Gates in the head. Wllllo f down, but
m. u rlnt ,n nJ bSU-
did not, for Joe could not hit even ths,
one ball. When It got lost In the weeds
they borrowed one from a little boy in the
north end of town who had coma down to
see the game.
Willie Green Causes Trouble.
Wllle Green also made some trouble, be
cause he wanted them to throw the ball
around to the different stations there were
three stations a fter the boy that hit it,
and said if they did not do that they could
not make the boy quit playing. Lou Tukey
said that was not the way they used to
play down In the state of Maine, but Wil
lie Green said he had three ribs broken
the last time he played, so he ought to
know. But Mr. Jones, the referee, said it
waa all right to throw the ball any old
way. and that It did not put a man out if
the ball hit him when he waa running be
tween the stations. At first all of the boys
were trying to hit the byoya who were run
ning, but Mr. Jones said they must try to
throw the balls to the boys at the stations
and let them touch the other boys with It.
Willie Ure and Ernie 8weet. who took
Hen Dalley's place, and some of the other
boys would tall down In the dust when
they were running and trying to get to the
stations, So that they will have to get some
new clothes. And some of the boys ob
jected to quitting trying to hit the ball
when Mr. Jonea told them to, because the
boys who played only with their voices
told, them to keep on. But Mr. Jones would
make them quit Just the same. Tommy
listen played for Btanney Botwlck the last
few rounds because Btanny stepped on his
hand when he was running around and
could not play any mora
Dave Patterson gave all of them these
good and bad marks:

FOR THE COMING OF CRESCEUS
Trt-Clty Driving; CInb Will Make the
Event an Important Occasion
for Omaha.
The Trl-Clty Driving club held a well
attended meeting at the oflic.es of Floyd J.
Campbell last night to arrange for the
matinee at which Cresceus, the world s
champion trotting stallion, 2:02Vi, is to ap
pear, on Saturday, September 18. A com
mittee, composed of F. A. Nash, T. C.
Bvrne. C. C. Kendall, Charles Crelghton
and Floyd J. Campbell, waa appointed to
arrange for the ordering of the events of
the matinee. As arranged for at present,
the events will Include races In two classes
of the matinee horses and competitive
classes In children's saddle ponies, gentle
men's runabouts, matched teams hitched
to station wagons and, perhaps, ladles'
saddle horses.
The latter competitions are something
entirely new to local horse-lovers and bor
der somewhat upon the horse show, as the
points In the contest are based entirely
upon the appearance ofethe horses and the
trappings. Ths classes have been kept
down to a small number In order that the
entry Itst may be aa large aa possible in
the different classes. The results of the
competition are expected to give an Indi
cation aa to the spirit with which Omahaus
take hold of the idea of a horse show next
fall and everything will be done to stimu
late interest In this part of the program.
The report of the committee on the track
showed that the work and the money
spent by the association on the track so
far has proven of great good to the track.
It has been shortened so that It is exactly
one-half mile In length and Its surface Is
In better condition than ever beore and
It will be bettered even more before Cres
ceus makes his appearance.
Aa Cresceus will probably be in Omaha
for three or four days particular pains will
be taken by the association In arranging
for the caring of the stallion. Two of the
box stalls In the stables at the track will
be combined and relied overhead for his
use. Special trainers travel with the fa
mous trotter and one of them. Bleeps In
the stall with him each night.
According to the contract Cresceus will
trot an exhibition mile on Saturday. This
will be his only appearance In Nebraska
wimout a nouDt. as nis owner nas prac
tically decided not to send him to Lincoln,
as was rumored for a long time.
A membership committee was elected to
examine the standing nf applicants for
membership hereafter. The committee as
eiectea is composed or v. A. Nash. J. W.
Carr. C. C. Kendall, E. P. Peck and F. S.
Cowalll. A committee comnosed of C. C.

NEW YORK, Aug. 29. For the first time
In the history of America's cup contest a
race has been postponed on account of too
much wind.
Today the third of the present series of
races was to have been sailed. Following
the futile attempt of Thursday, when there
waa not enough wind to complete the race
within the time limit, it waa earnestly
hoped by yachtsmen that today's contest
would be decisive and the series com
pleted. Ten hours after Thursday's drifting fail
ure a storm broke over the course and
raged about Bandy Hook. The water was
tumbled into waves that troubled even an
ocean liner. ,
The wind blew with a velocity estimated
between forty and fifty miles and the rain
driven before it obscured the vision beyond
a mile or two.
Within the sheltering bend of Bandy
Hook, where the two racing yachts rode
at their mootrnga, the water was compara
tively quiet this morning, while across the
sandy peninsula on the ocean side the surf
boomed as It broke upon the beach. At
7 o'clock the regatta committee met at the
New York Yacht club house and decided
to postpone the race for the day.
The meeting was then adjourned until
1 p. m., when a derision as to a race was
reached. In the meantime a tug was
sent to Sandy Hook to secure the feeling
of Mr. Iselln and Sir Thomas Llpton In the
matter and upon the return of the tug
definite action was taken.
A prominent member of the Yacht club
aid this morning that he waa in favor of
a race Monday, and now that Sir Thomas
has openly expressed himself on the abili
ties of both boats and acknowledged him
self defeated, It was thought advisable by
many of the members of the Yacht club
that the race be started Monday and the
races be completed as soon as poaslble.
The committee named Monday as the day
for the next race. It was also decided to
hold the races every day thereafter until
the international contest Is decided.
Want the Crewe Chnnged.
LONDON, Aug. 29. A cable dispatch was
sent to Blr Thomas Llpton today offering
to guarantee the expenses if he will agree
to a series of five races between
Reliance and Bhamrock with their crews
exchanged.
In approving of Bir Thomas' reported de
termination not to challenge again for the
America cup. the Globe this afternoon
voices the despair which marks all the
comment on the cup racing, by saying:
There comes a time when constant and
Inevitable defeat wearies even the most
enthusiastic, and Bir Thomas Is well ad
vised to relinquish the struggle, while his
Fluck is so generally recognised and be
ore his failures have become a Jest. While
the American yacht builders are so su
perior to their English rivals, we are not
likely to regain the cup.

POWERS SENTENCED TO DIE
Jury Ey$ He is Guilty of the Murder 2,
GoebeL
third trial and extreme penalty
Fonnd Gallty Twice Before, bat In
Each Case Ho is Allowed to
Escape with Imprison
ment for Life.
GEORGETOWN, Ky.. Aug. 29.-The Jury
In the case of ex-Secretary of Btate Caleb
Powers, charged with complicity In the con
spiracy to murder Governor Goebel, today
found the defendant guilty and imposed the
death sentence.
Powers was sentenced to Imprisonment
for life in his former trials for complicity
In the conspiracy. It was on his motion
that be secured the new trials each time.
The verdict today caused great excitement
among the friends of the other defendants
In these cases.
Aaxtoaa Crowd' Fills Room.
The third trial of the defendant closed
shortly before noon. Several hundred peo
ple crowded the court room when the ver
dict waa read and Intense silence prevailed.
The Jury was polled and each man declared
the verdict of guilty to be his finding. Pow
ers sat unmoved while his attorneys asked
for time to make a motion for a new trial.
Arthur Goebel broke down from the strain
on hearing the verdict of guilty. The Jurora
decline to state what occurred in the Jury
room.
Arthur Goebel, ths brother of the victim,
Is a prominent merchant at Cincinnati and
he haa spent his time and fortune for over
three years In the prosecution of those
accused of. being Id a conspiracy to kill
his brother. '
Fonnd Gallty Three Times.
Powers haa been convicted twice before,
this being the third trial in which the Jury
brought In a verdict of guilty against him.
On his previous trials he escaped with a
sontence of life Imprisonment. All three of
the trials were held at Georgetown and in
each of them he had the assistance of the
moat able lawyers who could be procured.
Subscription lists were circulated in his
Interest by friends and a sum of money
was secured to defray the cost of his
repeated trials and the investigating of the
clrcumtancea which preceded the killing
of Governor Goebel, in the Interest of the
defense.
The last trial was distinguished by the
fsct, that Power addressed the Jury in
his own behalf, and In a long review of
the case showed himself to be a very
competent attorney, while his eloquence In
pleading for his life astounded those who
had watched hlra carefully in the past
trials of the case.
Powers has already been three years In
prison - on the sentence of the previous
court.
Powers had nothing to say regarding the
verdict except to express his surprise thst
such a result could be reached and to an
nounce that he would take an appeal and
continue the case to the last resort.
When Powers secured his former new
trials a majority of those on the appellate
eourt were republicans, but ft is now com
posed of democratic Judges.
As Commonwealth Attorney Franklin
hook hands with each Juror after they
were dismissed. Powers watched the greet
ings closely but at no time did he show
any sign, of breaking down.
Powers Is regarded aa a atrong man. He
was elected secretary of state on the re
publican ticket, headed by W. 8. Taylor
for governor in 1899, but served only a few
months as all the state offices were con
tested by those on the democratic, ticket,
headed by William Goebel.
The former trials of Powers were before
Judge James A Cantrtll of this city, but
he was barred from sitting and Governor
Beckham appointed John Robblns.
Was Xot in Frankfort.
The prosecution claimed the shot which
killed Goebel Just after he entered the
tatehouse grounds at Frankfort was fired
from the window of Powers' office. Powers
himself waa on a train enroute to Louis
ville at the time, and claimed that he was
going to help arrange for an excursion of
western Kentucky cltliens to the state cap
ital, to protest against the legislature set
tling the contest then pending by seating
Goebel. Powers never denied that he aided
In organising the mountain armies which
came to Frankfort at the time the election
returns were first canvassed and again Just
before the assassination. Ha claimed, how
ever, that the men, though armed, were
merely exercising the right of petitioning
the legislature guaranteed to them in the
bill of rights.
Sentenced to Death.
LEXINGTON, Ky., Aug. 29.-Judge Rob
blns this afternoon formally overruled a
motion for the granting of a new trial to
Caleb Powers, convicted for the third time
of complicity In the Goebel conspiracy, and
sentenced him to be hanged. After a dec
laration of the prisoner: "I am not guilty,
Judge," the court fixed November 25 next
as the day for the execution. The attorneys
for the defendant secured the granting of
an appeal and If unsuccessful they may try
to get the United States supreme court to
take It under consideration. Powers was
the coolest man In the court room wken the
verdict was read and the sentence pronounced.
He was immediately removed to the Bcntt
county Jail, to be held there pending the
appeal of his case to the higher courts.
Powera refused to say anything after the
rendition of sentence, except that he snlrt
all that he cared to say In his speech to the
Jury-
A telegram from Indianapolis states that
ex-Governor W. 8. Taylor aald: 'This ver
dict affects me very much. I cannot say a
word."

one. The entry list was larger than that
of the tournament here the previous week,
but did not rank as high In character of
play probably. Art Scrlbner went out In
his second match before Fred 10lierh:ird.
Conrad Young was unfortunate in being
called home after he had played down to
the third round and was practically as
sured of a place In the semi-finals, where
he would have met Fred Kberhardt. Be
cause of Young's withdrawal Scrlbner waa
unable to continue In the doubles and so
returned home also.
The entertainment of the players wss
carried on with a lavish hand and there
were dances, receptions, teas, dinner and
smokers all the week with ths whole town
