PRESIDENT 0'HII. OX orTLOOK'
Head of Western l.eaaae Predict
Prosperous Reason.
President Norrls O'Nell of the Western
league gave Omaha a few minutes of bis
valuable time last night, stopping off here
between trains on his. way from Sioux City
to Chicago. He is making his annual visit
to the cities that make up the league, and
Is handing out great quantities of glad
conversation.
, Ho says he has a schedule all ready for
presentation to the magnates at the meet
ing, which must be held soon. It is likely
the meeting will be called for tho present
week. Des Moines la very apt to get ft,
although Uncoln is entitled to It. When
the constitution of the league was violated,
by holding the annual meeting and elec
tion of the league In Chicago, it wan the
understanding, says the executive, that the
schedule meeting should be held In Des
Moines, that being the home of the pen
nant winning team. This Is what is likely
to pull. the. meeting away from Lincoln.
Mike Cantlllou is still a power, no mutter
what the other magnates may think.
Mr. O'Nell says the feeling In Denver'nnd
Pueblo is good. He predicts a renewal of
interest In base ball In the Colorado capital
and says that Frank Selee's name hna
aroused much enthusiasm In Pueblo. A now
park has been put In there and Selee i
preparing to get tho best team Pueblo ever
had on the diamond. This combination Is
going to help the game In the "Pittsburg
of the west. ' He Is much pleased with
conditions at Lincoln as Holmes' arrange
ments there are first-class and the interest
shown by the public being of a nature thnt
bodes only good for tho game. Duncan, In
Sioux City, has matters well advanced for
the season, although Manager Carney has
had troubla with some of his piny era.
O'Nell says the Sioux will have a fine team
In the field, nnd will Ik found hustling from
the very first. He will not visit Des Moines
on this trip.
As to the date for opening the sason.
he would not say positively, but admitted
that the first games will he plaved about
M.Hry ttI"a llk,,ly tmU teams
will he paired uliout as they were last
season, with Lincoln taking the place of
St. Joseph. Omaha and Des Moines will
open In the west, as usual, and Lincoln
will start at Sioux Citv.
O'Nell declined to talk base ball politics
and would say nothing of the Interviews
that have come through from the coas
credited to him. He says the situation at
Han Francisco Is very delicate, but that
the team will pull through unless some m-'
forseen contingency a rites.
President O'Nell came In from Sioux City
on an evening train and left for Chlcugo
at lo o clock.

Candidates for Track Events at Iowa
tatr 4ilre Good Promise.
AMES, la.. March 24. (Special.) Track
work under the supervlnkm of Trainer Jack
Vaison at the lown State college is pro

different events nro showing up in exceed
ingly good form. Watson sixes up the
situation In this manner: "Tim spirit Is

Is doing more consistent training than at
any time last year. Ijist year we started
late and the older men took their time in
getting to work to learn my system
'onseitueni'y they did not accomplish much'
This year It Is different. Practlcallv
of the older men are out working hard "
In the halyard dash Cnpelxml. McElhln
ney Heisey and Iiherger. all ld veterans

some new men that will make n credltahle
showing In this event. In the two-twenty
there is no lack of good material. Packer
Ltiberger. Hubbard. Rush. CorWand. Cnrr
and Heisey all being fast. In the four
forty event there is somewhat of a scarcity
of material. Hubbard, Carr. McElhlnnev.
Sleben and Woods are the most pmmlslnrf
candidates. Beard, who won the half mile
st the state meet last year Is buck again
this year and will be a strong bidder for
that .vent. Thee are at least five oth
men who will 1 out for the ha!'. There
s much g.swl material on hands for the
long distance races this year. The most
prominent are Curtis, Beard. Mutch. Tack,

Watson has confidence that Ames will

IOWA CITY, la., March 24. Iowa won
the dual meet from the State Normal school
tonight by a score of 66 to 22. It was Iowa's
meet all the way.
Sporting; Brevities.
Unexpected interest Is being shown by
the automobile manufacturers in Omaha's
coming automobile show. Several inqulric.4
have been made by the makers asking for
space. .
The weather has been Inauspicious for
spring training In Texas. The Millers will
llnd the. same condition existing here If the
weather does not warm considerably over
Sunday.
The disastrously long training trips taken
by many of the base ball teams will have
the effect of converting many of the man
agers to Hanlon's and Comiskey's way of
thinking, that Is. that shorter trips, occupy
ing lesa time, are better.
Connie Mack has two pitchers on his
championship team who are nearly as
strong cards as the great Mathewson him
self. These are Bender, tho Indian, nnd
Rube Wadded. The press agents have been
at work for Rube, but he Is reported as
rounding Into condition In spite of all bear
stories which have been sent out.
COWING AUTOMOBILE SHOW
Omaha Stels Pace for Western Cities
and Show Will Be a
Hammer.
Omaha Is to be the first among cit'es of
the middle west to give an euter.ioi.ile
show. The show will be held In. the Audi
torium on April 4, 5, G and 7, and every
foot of space in the large arena lias been
engaged by . representative automobile
manufacturers and dealers.
The exhibition will be the greatest of
the kind ever given west of Chicago, and
will be of intense Interest, not only to
owners and prospective purchasers of auto
mobiles, but-to the general public as well.
This will be the place to learn all about
the different makes of machines, how to
run and take care of them und the ex
pense of operating them. In fact, an auto
mobile show la not only a big exhibition of
such machines, but it is a regular school
for those who own or expect to own ma
chines. It gives peoplo who Intend to buy
an excellent opportunity of comparing the
good points of the different styles and
makes right on the spot, without traveling
about from one establishment to another
and forgetting what has lien learned at
one place while gaining Information nt an
other. At this great show will be seen the steam
car and electric machine, the gasoline pro
peller and the compressed air driver, the
runabout and racer, the touring car and
the dray car, the car' "that's built for
two." snd the one that Is hullt for four
thousand (dollars i.
Most of the exhibitors will have one or
more cars stripped, so that the people can
see'Just how they are made and how th-v
run.
The little "Baby Reo" will lie there. This
Is a perfect little automobile, made for
children, and at Chicago It was one of
the -most Interesting exhibits In the entire
show.
The Auditorium will be appropriately
decorated nnd entertaining music will be
furnished by a fine orchestra. The show
will-' continue four days and will be open
both afternoon and evening.
A very lsrge attendance is practically as
sured from surrounding towns.
Numerous letters of Inquiry have already
been received from Lincoln. Fremont,
Grand Island. Hastings and many other
towns In Nebraska and Iowa, indicating
that hundreds of people, outside of Omaha,
are Interested and are coming to the
show.

DKS MOINES. March 24.-(Speclnl.)-The
most Importsnt action In the legislature
today was perhaps the passage In the house
of the bill by Freeman of Pottawattamie
county, fixing the weights and measures.
The bill makes no changes In existing taws
as to weights, with thei exception of broom
corn seed nnd sorghum seed, which are
made heavier than formerly, but the bill
adds about thirty or forty articles, the
weight per bushel of which was never be
fore fixed by Iowa statute, and.' further,
more, the laws fixing tho weights have been
