On a muddy ftald and between showers, Cnmlekey's White Box took the scalps right off Fa's colta at Vinton street park Sun day afternoon and won by the score of U to 1 before bunch of abmit of the faithful who took chance on a drenching to see some of the material which P.i and Commie arc trying out thl spring. In the White Box they saw a bunch of the largest men who have ever been seen on a local diamond. They were active and seemed to take a special delight In trying, to put the ball over the right field fence. Pennell succeeded In the fifth Inning and drove two In front of him and Green pat It over the same spot In the seventh with two on bases. The rain of Saturday and Sunday had put the field In bad shape, except at tne home plate and pitchers' box, where a can vas had kept the ground fairly dry. Fast rork was out of the question, for If a man tried to speed up too much he was sure to fail la the mud. The field, however, dried out fairly well before the game was over : Pa. t'aea Three rttehers. McNeeley started to pitch for the locals and, while he dished out nothing but straight balls, he held the Windy City men to four hlta for his three Innings. Hejsser wns then sent In and they lambasted him for eight hlta In his three. Koukallk got away with eight hits against him. Omaha started well by putting the Sox down one, two three, and then Bassey larted with a double and reached third on Welch's out. The Omaha run was made In the second Inning. Runklo singled, was sacrificed to second by Howard, went to third on Perrlng's out and scored on Gon ding's double to right. The third Inning begun well, for Bassey doubled, stole third before any was out, but there he died. A glance at Chicago's nineteen hits will tell how they got their runs.

(Special Cablegram to The Bee.) One of the most knotty of subjects which confronts the present liberal ministry of Sir II. Campbell-Bannennan Is the education bill. It would appear as though there are almost as many different points of view upon this subject as there are people In the United Kingdom. The Bishop of Birmingham and Lord Hugh Cecil urge that parents should determine the kind of religious teaching which they wish their children to receive, and that the tate should make Its business Impartially to see that thla Is provided. This principle J said to have at least two grounds to recommend It. The first Is that the state alone can claim a primary right In the matter which would override the rights of the parents. The other contention Is that lnce the state makes education compul sory that compulsion Imposes a correlative duty on the atate of respecting the beliefs of Its cltliens. Bishop of Birmingham In 111 championship of denomlnatlonalism has even obtained warm support from an emi nent nonconformist In Dr. Guinness Rog ers. On the other hand, undenominational teaching has obtained the most pronounced support from Bishop of Carlisle. Canon Ilenson and others. Bishop Wilkinson, on the other hand. Is arguing against the de. plorable effects of purely secular teaching on national morality, basing his case, how ejvax, largely on continental experiences. . . HYMENEAL. Brsws.Wrliht.

Hlchard Carle Hnd company In "The Maor of Toklo.'' a farcical opera In two acts hv Richard Carle, music by W illiam Frederick Peters. under direction of Richard Carle. The principals: Kow Tow. tlie Mayor of Toklo.. Fred Frcar General Satake. a consplrntor Hylvian Inglrrls Ivan Orfulltch. a Russian spy Jo Smith Mnrba Tnnake, a court physician Jess Calne Nlkko. the royal messenger ... F.cl win Baker Awakl. a body guard William II. I'latt Betsey Lincoln, an American heiress Adele Rowland Ololn San, daughter of Kow Tow Ada Mitchell Julian Lincoln, the tenor Albert Wallerstedt Rusty, the sung Iniok Ixiv William Rock Madam Stitch, wardrobe mistress Emma Janvier Birdie Talcum, the soubrette Minerva Courtney Manns Orlando Kidder, impressarlo Richard Cnrle In preparing "The Mayer of Toklo" for exhibition. Mr. Richard Carle was actu ated by no motive higher than a laugh. He doesn't nim nt anything else, but he does get the laiiKhs. He didn't use up an awful lot of gray matter, either, In devising original songs and Jokes for the affair, but he did provide Just that sort of light and airy foolishness that goes straight home and loaves a good taste. After he had songs, music and Jokes ready, then he got busy with his real work, and the beauty of his plan is shown In the com pany. He Is supported by seven male and two female comedians, each of whom Is a hit In the part, and by a bevy of the pret tiest girls seen In one company In a long time. The young women who are travel ing with Mr. Carle this season are really young and fresh, both as to face and voice; all can sing, and nuiny of them can dance, and the whole lot keep busy all tho lime they are liefore the audience. MIhs Row land, who leads the chorus In the "Tokio" ftong and "Where the Ocean Breezes Blow." has no very remarkable voice, but her vivacious personality makes up for this In a great mensure. Miss Mitchell has one song in which her really good voice Is most effectively used. The tenor Is all but banished from the hill, being heard only In the ensemble numbers. The fun of the evening is furnished by Mr. Carle, Miss Janvier, Mr. Rock, Miss Courtney, Mr. Frear, Mr. Langlols, Mr. Marha, Mr. Calne, Mr. Baker nnd Mr. Piatt. To tell of It all would take as long as to see the piece. Miss Janvier's Madam Stitch Is one of the most Inter esting of the sort, and Mr. Rock as Rusty Is quite as funny as the star. And Mr. Cnrle gives each and every one n fair chance to make good. The Peanut, Ballet, In the "black and white" dance, Is quite a fetching feature. The audience at the Boyd theater last night was of the most enthusiastic sort, and If one performance of the piece Is worth the price of admission, those present got two or three times their money's Worth, for not a thing get away without an en core, and most of the features were de manded three and four times, and some of them oftener. Mr. Carle and his associ ates very generously kept It up till Ihe show was stretched out to an Interminable length by the repetitions, but they went home with the knowledge that they had pleased a large audience. '"The Mayor of Toklo" will be repeated this evening, and It Is worth your while to go, for It has good songs, plenty of oecnsion for lnughter and lots of genuinely handsome girls In pretty dresses arranged In really beautiful pic tures. The massing of the colors Is one of the most enjoyable features of the per formance. The engagement ends with to night. Vaudeville at the Crelarhton-Orpheam. Another fine variety bill is offered at the Crelghton-Orpheum this week; not a seri ous spot In the whole arrangement, but plenty that will amuse and divert. Foster and Foster, who are eligible to be listed aa old friends, have added to their musical act and .rounded It out until it has assumed the proportions of a genuine hit. They sing well, one with a dramatic and the other a lyric tenor, and one plays the piano re markably well. They mix In some very funny comedy, and "always leave ,thcm laughing when they say goodbye." The Avon Comedy Four do a little bit of every thing In the wny of farcical foolery and two of them jig with remarkable agility Ferguson and Passmoro contribute singing and dancing, Miss Passmore with a fair contralto voice, and Mr. Ferguson with his nimble feet, and win much applause. Roso and Ellis Contribute a novelty barrel jump ing act. In which some difficult feats. are accomplished and a little laughter Is aroused. The Piccolo Midgets are four dl mlnutlve German athletes, who achieve a variety of stunts In a way that shames a lot of the grownups who have appeared In the same line. These bits of humanity are strong and agile and do their work with grace and dash. The Salvaggls dance most gracefully. Madame Salvaggt Is a most ac complished danseuse, and. the two young women with her are lithe and. graceful, while the three men In the troupe are ex cellent asslstunta. The act was much rel ished yesterday. Rawson and June present one of the most entertaining and bewildering exhibi tions seen here since their last appearance. With the primitive weapona of the Aus tralian bushmen. they are experts, and cast javelins, shoot arrows and throw the boomerang with surprising accuracy. With that scientific mystery, the boomerang, Rawson does feats that all hut surpass belief. The accuracy with which he con trols the unexplained flight of the Instru ment Is marvelous. For example, he throws one boomerang out over the audience. It circles twice around the auditorium, de scribing a graceful sweep, and seemingly gathering speed as it files, until it returns to his very hand, moving swift er appar ently than when It left. He perforins the remarkable feat of casting one twice around on the etago and makes one fly around the stage and through a hoop held back of him by June, tnus demonstrating his perfect control of tho weapon. Alto gether It Is one of the most astontf hing ex hibitions ever witnessed. The pictures In the kinodrome give a condensed version of the well-known play of "Haxel Kirke" and are quite effective. "The Factory filrl" at the Km. Charles E. Blaney's company. In his own pluy. "The Factory Girl," opened Its sec ond Omaha engagement at the Krjg yes terday, pleasing two of the largest audi ences of the season. The piece deals with the love of the honest son of a manufac turer for a girl in the factory. His cousin seeks o discredit the son In the father's i yes and succeeds in part. The girl suf fers through Ihe niucli, nations of the evil young man and the equally evil young woman who assists him, and the clouds hi ver darkly around her f c r awhile. In the last act all Is cleared up, but not until a lot of thrilling sitjtttlons have been pre sented Borne of the settings are quite realistic, among them being thnt of the operating room of the big factory In which the girl Is employed. Miss Clara May la at the head of the company and la doing some good work. The engagement lasts till after Wednesday evening with a mat inee on Wednesday afternoon. 'Dr. BUI" at the Barwood. . The Woodward Slock company makes a thoroughly diverting evening out of "Dr. Bill,'1 which la a farce comedy without disguise, and Is the first offering at this house reminiscent ever so faintly of the conventional French method of treatment respecting the marital relations. The green eyed monster Is the worst evil genius In troduce, however, and the play Is Im peccable and caii harm no one. It Is done with a test and has no dull moments. Mr. Morrison Is thoroughly acceptable In the title role. Miss l-ang Is on the stage more than most of the other comedies have permitted and makes good use of oppor tunities to grace the occasion. She plays the part 'Of Mrs. Horton with a pleasing abandon. Mr. Simpson's work as George Webster Is among the cleverest things this young comedian has done on the Burwood staget Miss Davis Is chic as Miss Fauntel roy ami wears some striking gowns. Mr. Sohcfleld, Mr. Davies. Mr. Todd. Miss Hill. Miss Ward, Miss Martin and Miss Hudson are In the play and contribute Intelligently to a smooth and successful presentation. COMRADES TO BURY CHALLAND Company CS, ebraka ntlonn1 (insril. to Hare Charge of the Foneral. The body of Charles F. Challand. who died at Ixu Angeleu, Cal., a week ago yes terday, arrived at Omaha at 5:20 o'clock yesterday afternoon and was taken by Undertaker Swanson to the home of the mother and brother. 2220 Burt street. A military funeral will be held at 3 o'clock this afternoon from the Second Presby terian church. Twenty-fourth and Nicholas streets, and will be In charge of Company O. Second regiment, Nebraska National guard, of which organisation he was at one time a prominent member. The death of Challand was wholly unex pected by his friends and people. He went to California about ten weeks ago. and was found dead In bed from heart failure. Induced by atomich trouble. He wns born thirty years ago at Fairfield, la., and dur ing the Spanish-American war was a mem ber of the Second Nebraska regiment, with Company C, the Wreplng Water contingent of the regiment. He stayed with the com mand nt Chlcamauga park and the year following the war joined the Omaha guards (Company Gl. Challand acted as trumpeter and was considered one of the best In the slate. He was also a member of the Union Oat llng guards, and with this section of the Omaha guards toured the United Stales and Europe, returning to Omaha last spring. In view of his prominent military connec tion. It has been decided that the funeral would be most fittingly In the hands of the former comrades. As many of them, there fore, as can possibly do so, will gather at the armory In Crelghton hall' early In the afternoon and march to the church for the services and then accompany the re mains to ForcRt Uwn cemetery, where the Interment will take place. Challand was a single man and while In Omaha was employed at the Union Pacific headquarters and with the Standard OH company. Making; the Brat of It.

"No; we d n't keep them." "Well, I guess I'll have to take It, hut It Isn't what I want, nt all."

It has only two toes and no sense at all, but Is endowed by nature with a kick which resembles that of a foot ball player.

CATTLE There were about aa many cattle here as usual on a Saturday, that Is, not enough ot any kind to make a mar ket. The receipts for the week show a falling off of right around 2,000 head, as compared with last year, but, on the other hand, there was a slight gain over a year ago. A very large proportion of all the cattle coming forward this week has consisted of beet steers, all other kinds ot cattle being In moderate supply. While choice cattle have not been par ticularly plentiful this week, there have been a good many loads of fair to good kinds, so that the market has been well supplied all the week up until Friday, when there waa the usual falling off In the run. The market during the early part of the week showed very little change. It being quoted about steady, aa compared to those prevailing at other market points. On Thursday there' was an casing off, so that at -the close of the week values are close to 10c lower than at the close of the previous week. There haa been very much sameness to the cow market, good cows and heifers have been free sellers all the week at good steady prices, and at the present time are In practically the same notches as one week ago. Common, rough, thin and old cows on the canner and cutter order have been poor sellers every day. Prlcea on such cattle are not only low, but packers appear to have very little use for canning Stock at the present time and It is a difficult matter for receivers to find a buyer. There Is nothing new to offer regarding the stocker and feeder trade; good feeders have been in demand all the week and have sold at steady prices. Toward ths latter part of the week there waa some tendency toward accumulation In the handa of speculators, the country demand being rather light, but fortunately fresh supplies fell off in time to prevent any material change In the market. HOGS Today's hog trade was practically a duplication of yesterday. The market opened a little bit stronger than yesterday's close, or about like yesterday morning. The early sales were largely on the basis of 66.22V A little later on, after the more urgent orders were filled, the market eased off somewhat the same as It did yesterday, the later sales being largely at 86.20. The bulk of all the hoga sold at 86.3tVa6.22V. the aame aa yesterday, making the general market today fully steady with yesterday. While the trade was not very active at the current prices, there were so few hogs here that a reasonably early clearance wa effected. - SHEEP The market waa especially bar this morning, there being neither stale nor fresh receipts to make a test of values. Thu market this week has been In very fair con dition and such changes as have taken place have been on the side of a better range of values. The demand has been especially active for heavy sheep and ewes, which are 15tfl2.r.a higher than a week ago. As a matter of course shippers will under stand that this means those having quality as well as weight. Lambs have been just about steady all the week, there being hardly any quotable change In either dtroa Hon- . With the Improvement on heavy sheep and ewes has come a better feeling all around and the trade this week has been in a rood, healthy condition throughout. On moat days the market has opened In good season, with the movement reasonably active, so that the arrivals have generally aold quite freely. There have been a good many buyers looking tor sheep and lambs that would OO 10 soear anu 1 ne.i uui unii they have kept such kinds as packers rould not use well cleaned up. Taking everything Into consideration, sellers have been very well satisfied with the week's operations. Shorn sheep and lambs are commencing to come forward, a few shipments having been received this week.
