The redbresst's sweet little song- has re
mtrtded us all that spring- Is really here.
Old winter did his worst and has now fled
from the scene. He may play a momen
tary bluff at returning:, but there's nothing
to It. The first of the robins hns come, and
with him the bane ball poet has dug out
Ok' his lair, and here la our old friend Van
Arsdale, celebrating In song the gathering
of the clans, thusly:
Back from the Woods.
Thsy ore coming from the farms and from
the backwoods,
From a reunion which has been a grand
success.
Where they batted and they fielded
( round the cookstove),
At percentages you couldn't even guess;
Slugger Pete baa Just returned from Kll
leyuniDo. (In another year they'll show It on the
ir.api:
Scrappy Mike is In from Ruralvllle, Ken
tucky, Blmply dying for an umpire he can scrap.
Pitcher Jones has been a brakeman ali
the winter.
He has learned a lot of new curves, so
they say;
pitcher bmitti has wintered In a livery
staDie,
Where he learned th gentle art of
Ditching- hav:
Fielder lirowu lias had his meals at free
lunch counters.
Bo be sura he il eat up things upon the
run;
Catcher jack to keep his batting eye In
order.
lias tii-i'n shunting at glass spheroids
witn a gun.
Every man Is In the very best condition
That the coming of the spring has ever
seen;
AU who lust year were too fat and much
too heavy
For a wonder, now are Just a trifle
lean;
While tne ones who needed weight to
Have Just taken on the pounds they
vainly sought.
And there isn't one among the whole vast
number
Who doesn't feel exactly as he ought.
They are coming from tha farm and from
the backwoods.
From a season wnlch has been a grand
success.
And the way they're going to bat and
field this summer
la something tnat no mortal man can
guess;
But the line of talk they're handing out
at present
Causes every fan to raise a cheerful
shout.
And we know we'll tie that pennant to tha
flaKDole.
If they only keep their pipes from going
-out.
VAN ARSDALE.
If hustle on th part of some of th lovers
of horses In Omaha can accomplish it
Omaha will be given aome horse racea this
summer of the best type. When tha stale
speed association met In Omaha In January
th local owners wore given to understand
that Omaha could hav a data on that cir
cuit . for any time wished, and now F. A,
Nash and others are hustling to form an
association that can put on soma races
that will call forth th best horses of the
country. It la now proposed to form an
association to acquire by lease what Is
commonly known as Sprague street park
and to make necessary improvements with
a view of giving an annual race meet in
Omaha. Other Nebraska towns, notably
Blair, Tekamah, Friend, Tork, Fremont and
amaller towns, give these meetings, and not
only make them successful from th stand'
point of bringing many to the town from
tha outside, encouraging trade and business
intercourse, but also make them a success
financially. It la thought an organization
on similar lines with the horse show asso
ciation can carry out such a project, result
Ing In bringing to Omaha at least once a
year people from all sections of the state.
To do thla successfully would require th
association of responsible business men
whos names would add material weight to
th undertaking.
$
Arrangements can be mad to acquire by
leas for five years the possession of th
Bpragu street track at an annual rental
l-vj'to sxpend in the improvement of the proo-
crijr i ruin f,wv ivf nwvi i no v.u
stand would be torn away and a new on
and new stables built. Tha track could be
rented to the Omaha Driving club which
would materially reduce. th expense of th
association. The promoters think that,
judging from th results at other smaller
town In th state, at least 15,000 could be
& cleaned up on me iirsi season, wmcn wumu
1 . put th association on a splendid workln
. basis. Bom of tha Omaha men hav been
"w working on thla proposition for soma tim
; and it is no visionary project, but la being
? pushed by some of the most progressive
men In th city, men who recognise th
l drawing power of a good horse race In at
' tractlng people to the city. What Omah
needs Is mors attractions which will be
aa Inducement for the people of the state
to com to Omaha.
i "Considering all th advantages at hand,
aald an enthusiast, "tha local horsemen
hav a great opportunity to arrange for
meeting that would draw some of th best
horses this way. By th best I do not mean
th very fastest, perhaps, but a class of
horses that will race honestly and give th
satisfaction that cornea from real contesta.
W hav here a half mile track that Is
sbmlttedly on of th best In th who
western country, with accommodations for
a hundred horses, and good aeeommoria
tlona at that. The railroads all center here,
thus assuring quick transit for th atock
coming from other meetings, and there is
no reason on earth why w should not
hav race meetings her every summer
that would put us In line with other cities
of Omaha's class. All it needs is th actlva
participation of our horse owners and
hors lover. And, too, it must not be
overlooked that Nebraska men own some

In this connection It Is pointed out that
In Iowa aeveral fair and racing associations
ave been organized and have' proved so
successful that only the other day a new
one was launched at Cherokee, which will
take In Sloua City among other towns.
Hoise raisers as well as horse owners In
Iowa have found that their interests ar
advanced all along tha Una by these associa
tions, and an Impetus Is given to tha rais
ing of good stock that la of great benefit to
the stats at large. Local rivalry over the
merits of their borsea has keyed th Iowa
tock raisers and farmers up to a high
pitch of enthusiasm, according to the
papers, and tha state la getting a great
deal of free advertising among the promi
nent magHilnes devoted to the horse and
outdoor sports generally.
$
All of tha other cities which ar members
of the Nebraska Speed association ar anx
ious to hav Omaha organise an association
which would ba strong enough to pull oft
uccessful meets. With two strong cities
as Omaha and Lincoln offering larg purses
the clans of horses which would be at
tracted to the stat circuit would be raised
and all th stat would benefit. Uncoln is
to hav a splendid meet In connection with
the state fair and with Omaha following
suit with a good meet th best would come.
All automoblledom Is agog over the com
ing automobile show which will be held at
th Auditorium April 4, B, and 7, and the
dealers have been bestirring themselves
nd hustling the factories until nearly all
th show machines ar on hand. All the
space In the big Auditorium has been taken
by tha manufacturers and th exhibition
promises to be much more Interesting than
waa at first anticipated. The manufac
turers gav the doalera to understand at
first that little help could be expected from
them, but this has been changed and all
were finally anxloua to get In tha swim.
Many of the smaller manufacturers wanted
space and some were accommodated, but
the space was limited and only given to
those machines having agencies In Omaha
Hordes of dealers from the towns of the
stat are expected to be on hand aa well
many prospective purchasers.
With characteristic promptness th Union
Paclflo Shop Base Ball association is al
ready In the field. The boys gave their
second annual ball last week and swelled
th treasury to an extent to make them
self-supporting for the coming season.
Practice has already begun on the shop
diamond. The lineup of th team will In
clude Eddie Clair, Jo Scully, Fred Brad
ford. Tommy Horan, Chick Morton, tha
Caseys and other well known amateurs of
last year's team. In addition there Is a
lot of new material to be tried out anS
the Indications are that the shop team thla
year will be much stronger than last sea
son, when they ranked high among the
amateur nines of the city and gave a good
account of themselves against some of the
strong teams out In the state. J. A. Buck
Is manager of th team this season.
Several needed Improvements hava been
made at th Omaha Field club and aome
which were not needed, but wer made
rather to suit the tastes of some of th
members. The east porch near th kitchen
has been enlarged and enclosed so It may
be used as a sort Qf a summer kitchen to
help out on room for th kitchen. The bar
has been don away with and a buffet
built In th corner of the room to take Its
place. Tha bar boys will be anolosed, but
members will not be permitted to drink
from the bar, but will hav to sit at a
tabla and ba served by a waiter.'" Bom of
the members did not like the bar feature,
did not like the Idea of lining up before
th bar, so this feature has been done away
with. .
The bowling league will have finished
Its season thla week and then the prin
cipal Interest In bowling will center around
the two-man contesta for th olty oham-
plonshlps. The first half of th two-man
tournament was bowled last year and now
the finish will be taken up. Besselln and
O'Brien won the first half and will make
a try for th second half, although the
councilman is a little out of practice. In
tha same contest a prise is offered for tha
highest Individual record for th two
years. Frush .now leads with Dad. Hunt
ington aecond. Tha boys are atlll fan
ning over th games at Louisville and
all sorts of excuses ar offered, the prin
cipal one being the style of alleys, as they
wer highly polished and th boys tried
all kinds of new schemes to make the
balls roll right, with the result they did
not roll their gamea at all, although mak-'
Ing a better record than tha Gunthera of
Chicago,
Charley Comjskey, "Old Cbmmanche,"
owner of the Chicago Whit Sox, who is
personally In charge of th division of his
foroes which will play in Omaha on April
T and I, tells thla story of how" Frank
Isbell cam to be transferred from first
base to tha field. "Isbell waa raised up In
th Jack pine oountry of Minnesota, along
side J. Adam Bede," aald "Commy." "All
they raise up t lis re Is children and pota
toes. Isbell was manager of a starch fac
tory ou winter and in the keen rivalry
to contract th next season's supply of
potatoes he engaged to pay a good price
for all tubers delivered at th factory at
a certain tim. Later on, when a big
crop developed, tha price of potatoes fell
away down. When thla happened Isbell
was on th road with us, and his stock
holders had started a suit which would
bring him back to Minnesota If he was
served with papers. It finally got to th
requisition stage, and tha governor of
Pennsylvania waa th recipient of a hurry
up note from tha governor of Minnesota.
About that tim we were to play an ex
hibition gam on an eff day at East
Liverpool, O. I waa put wis to th pre
snc of th man with th requisition,' and
also to a way to beat it until we could
get away. East Liverpool baa th only
base ball diamond where it la possible to
play In three states nt once. It Is located
on what they call 'state Una corner.' First
base, Isbell's position, waa in Pennsylvania,
but left field is in West Virginia and right
held In Ohio. So we smuggled 'laxy' onto
the nt!it and placed him in right field,
letting tanner man bat for him. He
kicked ot vo sun field, so w shifted him
to let',. viA had the ground keeper draw
ms v. Mtewactb brush along the slat line
so that Viank wouldn't overrun Into
Pennsylvania. And If you think w dldn
glv that process server a merry after
noon you can nave another guess. The
crowd soon got next to what waa going
on, and they laughed the man off the
grounds. I believe they would hav car
ried him off If he hadn't gone of his ow
accord. H told me afterward he enjoyed
It, too. Th best of It all waa Isbell
mad good In th field, so good. In fact
that w hav played him there with sue
cess ever since; and stranger still, since
that experience of not batting during
gam he haa been -bluing the ball at
great clip."
Frank Qotch has Mgned a contract to
wrestle any man th Missouri Athletic
club may select on a date not later tha
April S. Tom Jenkins, whom th club Is
trying to land for hla opponent, had agreed
to accept provided he is guaranteed W Sou
and expenses and a side bet. Tha club Is
willing to accept th first part of th prop
osition, but whether the bat la to b mad
depends upon Gutch, Jeuxln has been
wrestling Instructor at West Point for the
last six months and only recently decided
to return to the mnt.
It Is considered a certainty that Miss May
utton of California, who surcedrd In
capturing the women's tennis champion
ship In England last year, will be seen on
several eastern courts before sh departs
for the other side in July to defend her
title. Miss Button will go esst In the latter
part of May and will probably play In soma
of the tournaments taking place af Phila
delphia about that time. Miss Sutton may
be accompanied by two, or possibly three.
of her sisters, all of whom are said tq. b
expert handlers of the racket. They will
also take part In several contests while In
tha east.
The announcement that th Intercollegiate
regetta will be held this year on Saturday,
June 23, is welcome new to many rowing
enthusiasts who cannot afford to take a full
day from business to witness the races. The
program for the regatta as at present ar
ranged provldea for the following events:
First race. 4 D. m.: University four-oared
shells, by Columbia, Cornell, Pennsylvania,
Syracuse and Wisconsin lf It enters); dls-
mniv iwu nines, itr um rv ru i it-.j y Liianiin"
trophy presented In l- by David Kennedy,
Pennsylvania, to be held by the winner for
one year, now held by Syracuse.
Second race, 4:46 p. m. : Freshman elirht
oared shells, Columbia, Cornell, Pennsyl
vania and Syracuse to compete; distance
two miles, for the Stewards' cup. presented
In 1900 by Francis 8. lianas, Columbia, to be
held by the winner for one year, now held
by Cornell.
Third race, a p. m.t university eignt-oanea
shells. Columbia, Cornell, Oeornetown,
Pennsylvania, Syracuse and Wisconsin to
compete; distance four miles, for the
varsity challona-e cup, presented in iv ny
Dr. Louis L. Seaman. Cornell, to be held by
the winner for ono year, now held by Cor
nell. 5 '
There Is a possibility that Wisconsin may
not compete In the four-oared race this
year, preferring to enter a freshman eight,
and Georgetown is also expected to send a
freshman crew this year. The Moa of hold
ing a fourth race of the centipede type or
of single sculls, has been abandoned owing
to the lack of enthusiasm over such a pro
posal, except on the part of Syracuse. The
four-oared race among crews made up of
substitutes, however, proved so popular
last year that It will undoubtedly find
place on the program again this season.
The regatta will not differ materially from
those held In former years, but college
crew races ar always attractive, and this
spring there will be the same merry crowds
of excursionists lining tha banks of the
Hudson as have made the Catskllla echo
with their cheering In past years.
Wild Bill Donovan says: "A fooler, for
fair. Is the outcurve used by all th
pitchers with good, bad and Indifferent
effects. In my experience I find that the
outcurve Is the hardest curve to control,
and success with it depends entirely on
th delivery. A good twist of the wrist
is needed for this one. There are a num
ber of ways to deliver this curve to fool
the batsman. For some batsmen the ba)l
Is shot directly to them, making It break
Just across the plate. For others it Is
aimed directly at the plate and goes wide
when It passes' the batsman. The best
of hitters get fooled."
The New Tork state division of the Cen
tury Road Club of America has made up
a schedule of events for the season or
1906 which gives promise of good sport.
Informal century run will be held on
every Sunday In the month of April. In
conjunction with the one on April 16 there
will be a handicap race here from Valley
Stream for prizes. The rest of the pro
gram is as follows: Bpring cetnury, Sun
day, May 18; fifty-mile road, race, Sunday,
June 17; midsummer century, Sunday, July
8; ten-mile road race, Sunday, July 15;
fifty-mile pleasure Jaunt, Sunday,. July 22;

son th dates will be announced for at
tempts to break unpaced records at th
following distances: One mile, five miles,
ten miles and twenty-flv miles, also tha
100-mlla unpaced record.
With only 131 pounds to shoulder In the
Metropolitan handicap, tha $10,000 feature of
the first meeting at Belmont park this
spring, James K. Keene's Sysonby la in
much more reasonably than racegoers had
expected, and it is not considered a prob
ability that Trainer James Howe will point
th big Melton 4-year-old for this event.
Bysonby mad his first appearance In 1906
In the Metropolitan, running a dead heat
with Race King, and he went through th
aeason unbeaten afterward. He la an early
horse, according to those who have watched
him, and could easily bo prepared for a
race to be run on May 10. The weights for

Th Minnesota basket ball team by de
featlng Wisconsin won th title ' to th
championship of th western colleges. Th
Gophers ended the season with only one
defeat, and that was in ths first game with
Wisconsin. Wisconsin was a close second,
having lost only two games, the one with
Minnesota by tha close score of 16 to 10.
Tha management of the United States
Military academy foot ball team has pre
pared a tentative schedule for the coming
season and unless soma of the opposing
college elevens fall to materialize the ma
jority of dates will stand. The list In
cludes contests with Tale, Harvard, Prince
ton and Annapolis, and will prov as exact
ing as any schedule that th cadet team
has faced In recent years. Dstes for ths
con teats with Princeton and Harvard
have been alloted subject to Changs by
these elevens In case they are not satisfac
tory. Spring practice will continue until
the candidates havs thoroughly mastered
the game, aa it will be placed under the
new rules. Lieutenant Charles Daly, . a
member of th rules committee and former
Harvard and West Point quarterback, will
assist In th coaching. Th schedule as
arranged at present calls for ten games,
nine of which hav b n assigned as fol
lows: September it Tufts at JVest Point.
Octubrr Trinity at Vest Point.
October 13 Colgate at West Point.
Ortohor vT?nrvrd at West Point.

Th American team which Is to contest In
the Olympic games at Athena from April 23
to May I will not b the equal of tha one
which went to Parts In IPX). This Is, not
because athletics are at a low ebb In this
country now, but because of the length of
time. which the trip will Involve few college
men will be allowed to go, and the team
will not anywher represent the athletic
strength of the country. There Is but a
single event In which the 190. team Is bet
ter than the 1900 team and In only a few
are the records equal. In all of the others
the 1900 athletes were far superior to tho
members of the 1906 team. The team which
went to Paris consisted of such sprinters as
Duffey of Georgetown, Jarvls of Princeton
and Tewkesbury of Pennsylvania; hurdlers
like Kranezleln. Pennsylvania's world
champion, 'and McLean, the Michigan flyer;
an Invincible high Jumper In Baxter of
Pennsylvania; a quartet of distance run
ners In Orton and Grant of Pennsylvania,
and Gregun of Princeton and Bray of Wil
liams, all of which could more than hold
their own with Sujllvan and Llghtbody of
the present team. Then in the polo vault
there was Dvorak of Michigan, with a rec
ord of 1 feet, and Bascom Johnson of
Tale. The quarter mile contained Maxey
Long of Columbia, the present world cham
pion, and Maloney of Chicago, the western
champion. Just to show how the records
of the best men who composed the 1900
team compare with the best of the pres
ent team th following table Is given. The
records given of the 1900 men are those
which existed at that time, not those which
were made, by them later:

He saw the ridiculous in everything. His
vein of humor waa natural and so deep It
was ever bubbling to tne surface. His
humor led him at times Into saying and
doing what might have been considered out
of place. But those who knew Frank E.
Moores excused him for any excess of
action or expression.
"His heart was in th right place. H
had hla faulta and he would have been
lonely without them; and without them he
would not have been the loyal, genial
Frank, who to have known him waa to
hav loved him.
"Aa Illustrating that the ruling passion Is
strong even In death, his humor was con
stantly cropping out even after he knew
he had but a short time to live. A day
or two before his death, when It waa sug
gested that his conditions wer unfavorable
and that he might not hold out very long,
he Jokingly responded: 'Well, I cannot die
before May 1 anyhow; my term of office
does not expire before that time.'
"Another nobla quality which waa ever
present with Frank E. Moores was kind
ness snd generosity. No man ever lived
in Omaha wha waa more generous or who
helped more people In times of distress
and need."
