' fitudylnt hard.
Papa Bill Rourke has hit troubles be
fore him now. With onlr a wmIc left
to decide on his team for the summer, he
finds he has soma problems left to solve.
It Is not that hs hasn't good material.
The trouble la he has so much 300 A ma
terial hs wants to keep It all and can not
make up his mind which of the coming;
tars he will set adrift. He knows about
the Infield and the outfield, and has almost
made up his mind as to the catchers.
The pitchers will give him more trouble.
That he Is In earnest In his Intention to
bring home the pennant for Omaha next
fall Is shown by his securing Podge from
Chicago. This young man will d If place
one of the aspiring pitchers, for hs Is
seasoned material In minor company, and
Is sent to Rourke for a post-graduate
course In the fine art of base ball. Fire
other pitchers will be carried, and the
choice between the material on hand Is
difficult. One thing Is sure, and that la
Omaha will go Into the race with a cork
ing good team.
The Infleld Is the fastest Omaha has
ever had, and that Is saying a good deal.
for Omaha has never had a slow fielding
team. The outfield Is In the same fix. and.
In fact. It looks better thsn ever, for Welch
, Is working as he never worked before, and
Bassey Is a' decided Improvement over
Thiol, lie has shown none of Buck's mani
fest disposition to shirk, and Is not likely
to put Omaha In the position occupied last
season, that of having an outfielder
studiously playing for his release. The
batting of the team Is not all that Parts
Bill would like, but Is a derided Improve
ment over last season. Perrlng Is the
weakest of the hitters, but Is stu
diously training to overcome his
weakness, and Is likely to be
heard from. Altogether the outlook Is
very encouraging. And, don't forget that
next Saturday meeting between the Rourke
family and the I.ee-Qlass-Andresen outfit
Is to be fof the benefit of the Ynnn
Women' Christian association building
fund.
All th amateur base ball teams In the
city have ben getting Into shape during
the last week for the season which Is
soon to open up. The Frank Crawford
team at South Omaha was the first In
the field, playing two weeks ago. The
Nonpareils have organised and will soon
have their team selected and be ready
for games. The Field club team has
elected a manager and hopes to have a
rame scheduled for the opening of the
Field club. May 8. The two Diets teams
have uniforms and managers who are
busy arranging schedules. The Hollys
are already In the field with a rood team
and anxious for games. The Union Pa
cific shops will have Its usual strong rep
resentation on the field, . playing the
Rourkes tomorrow. The Lee-Qlaas-An
dreesen team Is as usual claiming the title
of amateur champions which several of
the local teams will dispute this sum'
mer.
Committees hare been appointed to
make the opening of the Omaha Field
club May S a gala occasion. A base ball
game will be arranged with some of the
.strong amateur teams and Abbott, Craw
ford, Balrd, Malone, Murphy, Crelghton,
, Hoagland and the other stars will be In
their glory. The tennis committee Is
also making an effort to have the courts
ready for some matches on that day. The
golfers will also be given some special
Inducement to make a few extra holes
In as few strokes as possible and the
whole affair will be finished up by a
dance at the club house in the evening.
An effort It being made to induce Miss
May Sutton, the champion tonnls player
of America, to come to Omaha .to attend
the Middle West Tennis tournament which
will be held on the Field club courts in
August. A higher class of players has
been coming year after year to this meet,
which is recognised a of national Im
portance. Last year some most excellent
players competed for the honors, com
ing from all sections of the country, and
as the reputation of this meet spreads
abroad the class of the players Increases.
The prises are good as are offered any
where and the entertainment at the Field
club Is of as high an order as that ac
corded to the tennis men anywhere. Last
year the Racquet club threw open Its
doors to the tennis men and they also
had a standing invitation to the Country
club. The tennis committee is making
some wise improvements on the courts
which will be In the best possible condi
tion for the tournament
The Omaha Automobile club of Omaha
held an enthusiastic meeting last Tuesday
night at Ruser's park on West Center
street, at which the members pledged them,
selves to work together for the general
good of automoblllng. A committee was
appointed to confer with a similar commit
tee from Council Bluffs In reference to the
condition of Broadway In Council Bluffs.
This could be made a famous run between
the two cities with rery little expense. A
cedar block pavement was put down many
years ago, but this, year bock, has lost Its
usefulness. In fact It Is at present worse
than no pavement at all, for It Is so rough
as to be almost impassable for autos or
wagons. This road could be macadamised
with small expense and made an Ideal run
for automobiles, as It is level all the way,
anis is more to the Interest of Council
Bluffs than Omaha, for Omaha has more
good runs of Its own than Council Bluffs.
The club decided to assist in the prosecution
of all drivers of autos arrested for the vio
lation of the speed erdinances. A plan was
evolved whereby all club members shall
hare a card for Identification which shall
be taken by policemen as a guarantee tor
appearance in police court if arrested for
petit offenses, the club to guarantee th

this elan and the members seem to hare
rnne Into the work with the right spirit to
bring about good results. New officers hare
been elected and President Connor will see
that committees are appointed, consisting
of members who will work.
Th fence has been constructed around
the Diets Athletlo club park at Thirtieth
and Spauldlng street and work Is progress
ing nicely on the Inside. The grading of
the tennis courts has been completed and
these will be put In Brat-class condition a
fast as possible. Work on th grand stand
for the ball field will be begun this wek,
the diamond already having been laid out.
The shower and locker hare been com
pleted and are now ready for use. Two
base ball team will be pot In th field by
this association, one to be known a the
"C. N. Diets" team and th other a the
"Diets Athletics." The managers hare
been appointed and the teams will oon be
chosen. The latter I the new team, but
from the material on hand the managers
think this team will be lust as fast as th
old team, which recognised no superiors In
th amateur rank of Omaha. Th new
uniform hare arrived, consisting of a blue
Suit with white, trimmings. Each team will
have th same colored uniform, the differ
ence being in the name across the front
The management hopes to open the new
park In about two week and then play a
double-header each Sunday afternoon. No
ichedule ha yet been fixed, but th man
ager are working up one and would be
pleased to hear from the managers of any
amateur teams of the etty In reference to
games. Amateur base ball has been mak
ing a great hit In many of the large cities
of the east and the management will do all
in Its power to keep the games high class
that they may deserr th patronage of th
public
Th game yet to be played In the ex
hibition aeries before the opening of the
regular championship season are: Topekfi
this afternoon, when the Rourkes will take
th final fall out of Dick Cooley, Jay An
drews tt Co. 1 th Union Psclflo shops
team Monday (Arbor day); Fremont at
Fremont Wednesday and Thursday; Schuy
ler at Bchuyler Friday, and the Lee-Qlass-
Andreeaen Originals Saturday and Sunday,
The first game with the Originals Is th
tnuch-talked-about benefit game for the
Young Women's Christian association's
building fund. The young women are mak
Ing a large hustle to sell tickets, for all
the receipt of tickets sold on the outside
will go to the fund, as well as half the
receipts taken In at the gate.
Meetings have been held during the last
week and every Indication points to the
fact that Omaha will have a first-class
track and that a company will bo formed
for putting on some good trotting race.
A lease will be secured for the Spraguo
street driving park, the grand stand will
be moved and enlarged and the stables re
built, making the track first-class In every
particular.
"What Omaha wants Is to get the people
of the stat to com to this c!ty for their
amusements," said F. A. Nash at th
meeting of the promoter of th scheme
for giving Omaha some trotting races,
"We con go after them In a commercial
way until we are black In the face, but It
will not do any good. What we want Is to
put on something In this city which will
be attractive, something which will be a
sufficient Inducement to draw people In. It
la a well known fact that people will come
naturally to do their trading where thoy
are beat amused. Th Ak-Sar-Ben serves
well enough In its way, the horse shew la
good In its way, but mors people can b
brought to the city te see a first-class 11ns
of horse race than in any other way. W
are all Interested In building Omaha up,
and this Is on of the best ways we can
work, at the presept time. Detroit was
about to los Its annual race through th
coming Into the town of a set of book'
maker who were not In touch with the
harness horse men, but I understand this
difficulty has been settled and Dotrolt and
Cleveland will each have a big meeting
this fall."
At one meeting held last week twenty
names were signed by cltlsans who are
snxloua to give Omaha a good track.
Twenty more or needed, but the pro
moter think they will have llttl difficulty
In raising this amount when a hustle is
one mad for It. Th men are receiving
very encouragement from the State Speed
association and a date will be given Omaha
as soon a th local arrangement ax com'
plete.
Ernest Keeler, who will drive th big
six-cylinder Oldsmobll which I being
constructed at th Lansing factory under
th direction of Chief Engineer Howard
Coffin, for the Vanderbllt race, ha made
several trips ever what ha been suggested
for th rout of th new course on Long
Island, In th twenty-elf ht-thirty-horse
power palace touring cor. It the time
made over the course by this ear 1 any
Indication of what may b expected of
the racing car, there la every likelihood
that there will be some phenomenal Urn
mad In th elimination. J. K. Mills of
the Olds New York agency accompanied
Keeler on these trips, which were mad
before sunrise.
The first base ball gome of the season for
th Crelghton university was played against
the league team out at th Vinton Street
park on Thursday, and th most sanguine
predictions for an unusually successful
season for th collegians were entirely
Justified. Considering th fact that th
team ho bad only two weeks of actual
practice and were contending with Pa's
veterans, the university fans may Justly
be proud of the initial work of the squad.
The team showed Utile ef the stag fright
which often prove to b th undoing of
amateur player .when opposing th profes
sionals. Th outfield, composed of Fish
beck, Croft and McShane, played a fast
and faultless game, while Btaen and Mullen
at shortstop and third base have abso
lutely settled all doubts as te their suit
ableness for these positions. The "hodoo'
that has been following the university for
several seasons In the past regarding a
scarcity of twirlers seems to have been
broken. Whitehead and Btrattoa both
pitched good, steady ball, and Lanlgan,
who was In th gam last year, can be
relied upon to do even better work than
lost season. Dick Coad behind the bat
bids fair to fill Ed Crelghton's old position
with credit. On the whols, the team made
a remarkably good showing, and with a
little more proficiency at the bat, which
doubtless will b acquired as th season
advances, Omaha should be able to boast
on of the fastest amatsur teams In th
west.
Columbia's faculty has now stepped In
to disarrange the plans of the track ath
letes on Mornlngslds Heights by forbid
ding them to meet Brown university In a
dual contest at Providence, which was
scheduled to take place on May 1 The
reason given is thst the students would
have to be absent from their regular col
lege work, because the meet fall on a
mid-week date.
The Ladles' Kennel Association of Amer
ica will hare Us annual summer show on
May U and 56 at Mlneola, the dates being
changed, so it Is said. In order to get the
opportunity ef baring George Raper Judge,

Indications ar not
United States Naval acafemy Is to have
another season ef rowing succeaees. Leav
ing out the question of th recent exhibi
tion by the midshipmen on th Severn,
which in Itself was a splendid one. the
embryo admiral who are holding down
sliding scats In the academy shells this
year are the finest lot of watermen
that ha been at Annapolis in many years.
Dick Olennon, the professional coach, bos
had the best kind of material to pick over
this year, and the paid mentor Is a wonder
when it comes to whipping In men. It is
only within the last two year that th
Naval academy has taken a new leas of
rowing life. Three things have helped to
make th change more than ail others.
On is that the authorities at Annaooll
bare encouraged athletics, where years ago
the Idea of pastime was heartily condemned.
Another reason la that the midshipmen take
naturally to th water and learn rapidly
that which I required of every good
oarsman. The third reason, is that tne
academy has an excellent rowing coach.
and that he la not handicapped by general
orders and what not, as were some of his
predecessor. Last year Annapolis cleaned
th slate in a aerie of rowing victories.
There are many outside oarsmen who would
like to see the midshipmen enter at Pough-
keepsle next year, and there are not a few
experts who believe that with the Anna-
polls crew there Cornell would not have
everything Its own way. The difference In
the study period, which requires the mid
shipmen to be at sea cruising about the
time that the crews on the Hudson are
preparing for their Joint battle, makes It
doubtful that Annapolis will ever be rep
resented at Poughkeepsle.
President C. R. Van I Use of the Urll
verslty of Wisconsin has offered Harvery
Holmes of San Francisco $2,600 a year to
become athletlo director at Madison, but
the former foot ball and track star thinks
that $3,000 is the least that he can afford
to accept for the hard work laid out in the
reformed plan of athletics at Wisconsin.
Students are willing to raise the difference
of 160 by voluntary subscription, but it Is
said that this proposition would not be ac
ceptable to Mr. Holmes, and also that some
members of the faculty have declared that
athletics ought to be made so Inferior to
school matters that the director should re
ceive less than a regular full professor.
The ordinary salary of a professor here is
$3,000 a year, but a large number of fhem
receive more because they have been offered
more at other places and the regents choose
to retain their services here. When the
faculty was reforming the athletlo system
one o the considerations was that sports
should be financially of little Importance,
and that the salaries should be meager In
accordance with this view. It Is believed
that Holmes is worth the price that he
asks, but the "principle" Involved is
troublesome to the faculty.
Charles F. Klrschner, the new mayor of
Allegheny, under whose administration it
was supposed everything would run "wide
open," has caused consternation among
the fans by his announcement that there
shall be no wagers on ball games at Ex
position park. Heretofore betting has
been one of the features of the National
league games at Pittsburg, and although
the club management tried to stamp it
out the efforts were practically useless.
I have determined to commence my ad
ministration with wiping out gambling at
th boil park," declared Mayor Klrsch
ner. "For the gamblers have annoyed the
patron of the game by betting, and If
there are enough police In Allegheny It
will be stopped. If there are not enough,
then we will get more. I Intend to have
a big bunch of officer at every game, and
every person who places a bet on the
game or on a play will be arrested. Ar
rests will be made every day, If neces
sary, until w stamp out th evil."

America International lawn tennis
team, which will be composed of Beals
C. Wright, Holcombe Ward. Krelch Col
11ns, and Raymond D. Little, will meet
the players of France on June 1, at Liver
pool. In the event of winning they will
then Journey to Newport, Monmouth,
where they will meet the winners of the
Australian-Austrian preliminary matches,
the dates being June 7, 8 and 1. 'ibis
will be the hardest competition for the
Americans, and upon, the result will hang
the privilege of challenging th Britons
for the cup. Practically the same team
as a year ago will represent Australasia
the men being Brooks and Wilding in the
singles, and Dunlop paired with Brooks
In the doubles. The finals for the cup
have been scheduled for the courts of
the all-English club at Wimbledon, Lon
don, June 15, 1 and IS. Both Wright
and Ward were on lost year's American
team and had previous experience abroad.
Together they hold the American doubles
championship, while Wright, the Bos
tonlan. Is the present holder of the single
title. In the playing of the Internationals
a year ago, Wright, unfortunately, was
overlooked, and, as he afterward demon
strated, he was easily the top man of the
string In the singles a match which
might have changed the final result of the
cup matches against H. L. Dotierty and
Frank L. Rlsley had he bean put In, for
tne competitions were very close.
Wisconsin has been challenged to an
elght-oared race on Mlnnetonka some time
In July by the Minnesota Boat club of St.
Paul. In view of Coach O'Dea's reels-nation
and the faculty stand against athletics of
all sorts, It Is by no mean certain that the
Badgers wilt b able to accept. Th race.
If arranged, will be for the Schllts cup. The
Schllts cup was offered several years ago
to be competed for by elght-oared crews
representing the University of Wisconsin
and the Minnesota Boat club, the one win
ning it four time to retain permanent
possession of the cup. The Minnesota crews
won the cup in suocesslon, but In 18S8 the
Wisconsin eight captured the trophy for
the first time and took It away with them.
Since that time there has been no races
between the two organisations and the cup
has remained In Wisconsin. The Minne
sota club has to win the cup but once
more to retain it, while Wisconsin must
win it three times.
College golfer ar getting busy and
schedules of matches during the spring
season hare been arranged for the teams
of several of the universities holding mem
bership in the Intercollegiate Golf associa
tion. Harvard has lost the Egans and
several other prominent players by gradu
atlon. but will put a strong team In the
field, nevertheless. A. L. White, who has
been elected captain, will be graduated
this year, but will return to the law school.
He did not play In the intercollegiate
championship last year, but won the title in
IBM by defeating Amateur Champion H.
Chandler Egan. The Harvard team will
play the Full River Golf club on the links
at Somerset Junction on Msy 23. and on
Memorial day will engage In Its third an
nual contest with a team from the Massa
chusetts Golf association on the Myopia
Hunt club's course. Each association has
won a match, the state organisation gain
ing the victory lost year. Other matches are
In process of arrangement. The Harvard
Interolass and university championships
will be played during the week of May
14 en a course In the Boston district.

N. J- Oolf club, June . Matches will
also be played with the Wee Burn (Nor

teams. Th Princeton team ha been
weakened by the loss of Its captain, F.
O. Relnhart, former Intercollegiate cham
pion, and Murray OUphant, but still In
cludes D. Clark; Jr., Douglas Laird, B.
W. Cockra, H. J. Oee, R. Russell and

team late last fall. Six spring matches
have been arranged, beginning with the
Philadelphia Country club at Bala this
week, and It la hoped that a meeting with
Yale will be brought about at Englewood
early next month. These are the dates:
April IS, with Montclalr (N. J.) Oolf
club; May I or I, with Williams' college
at Princeton. The championship ot the
Intercollegiate Oolf association will b
held at Garden City this year. Th date
has not yet been fixed, but th under
standing Is that th meeting will take
place in October. Thl will be the second
successive time that the tournament has
been held at Garden City, and the third
time in four years. Myopia having had It
in 1904. Yale holds both the team and the
individual championship, th winner of
the latter last year having been Robert
E. Abbott While th present trophy for
the team championship of the Intercolle
giate association will remain in play
until won outright, the perpetual trophy
offered by the United States Golf asso
ciation has been formerly accepted. A
complete list of the winning teams from
the start will be engraved upon the new
trophy.

Jealons of the Americas.
The Canadians of th west ar more In
sympathy with the Americans than those
of the east Indeed, I understand there is
an old tory element here that lie awake
night trying to find excuses for rubbing
the International hair the wrong way. Thl
element Is opposed to all things Amert
can. It wants a tariff wall, higher than
the tower of Babel, between the countries
and would like to keep out Uncle Sam'
nephew and nieces. It has been recently
worried , because most of the nrngaslnes
read In Canada are made In the United
States and it has been asking the govern
ment to charge an extra postage rate on
such periodicals and thereby make the na
tion go to bed early by falling to sleep
over the dull English periodicals and so
called funny papers. It Is largely this ele
ment that made a fuss not long ago about
our Associated Press furnishing most of
the news matter for the Canadian papers,
and it so agitated that subject that the
Canadian government has subsidised a epe
clal news service for Canada between th
dominion and England. I am told that
this service 1 regularly scooped by our
Associated Press.
In luetics to these neonle srenerallr. how
ever, I want to . say that such things ar
merely pimples on the body politic The
average Canadian 1 a good fellow, fair.
honest and full of common sens. He likes
the American far better than the English
man, and especially In the west does ho
realise that the American Is helping most
to build up th country. There Is no man
more welcome and none who Is having; a
larger share In all the opportunities and a
squarer deal in all other respeota.
America Women in Canada.
Speaking of Jealousy between the two
countries reminds me ot a little discontent
which I discovered among our American
women in Winnipeg. They claim, so I am
told, that they hav not been received
quite as well as they should be. Indeed,
it Is said that th fair Wlnnlpegger, bank
lng upon the blue blood of th British
empire, think herself somewhat better
than our American princesses, even though
the latter be the daughter - of money
kings. Indeed, there is what' might be
called an American colony In Winnipeg
whose member flock by themselves and
who, In many cases, feel that they are
unwelcome among the fashionable 400 of
th pur Canadians. This American col
ony Is rapidly growing and the mal mem
ber of it ar among th chief men of the
city. They hav already a high financial
standing, and In the coming development
will probably hold their place among th
richest men of th west Their wives are
well educated and are fully th equals of
th Canadlennea.
In th other cities of western Canada
th women of th two nations ar mora
closely associated and th . Americans are
even more popular than the English. Th
fashion her come from th United States
and the home life of the people is about
the satns. Nearly every town has Its
women's clubs of a literary and social
nature and many have club for golf and
other sports.

Indeed, about th only aristocracy In
Canada Is th aristocracy of th dollar.
The Canucks worship It quite as much as
the Yankees, and they bend their knees
even more humbly before It This la espe
cially so In the case of the managers and
officials of the chartered banks, who are
In Canada, more than anything else, the
visible emblem of the golden coif. These
people have a position of their own and are
quite on the top of the social heap. In the
smaller cities th bank manager and his
wife lead th (octal circle, and th $60 a
month bank clerk thinks himself above the
dry goods salesman over the way or the
commercial traveler who msy have twice
his brains and three times his salary. For
why, the latter are In trad.
In addition to th bank clerks and cap!
tall st s Is th small society of nobility mad
o by the favor of Great Britain. At the
head of this Is th governor general. Earl
Grey, a simon-pure nobleman appointed by
th king. Next to him are a few sirs who
have earned their titles by service to the
country. These are chiefly railroad offi
cials, or such men as Lord Strathcona, who
was so long at th head of th Hudson's
Bay company and who had much to do
with building th Canadian Pacific
,
French Canadians.
Indeed, as far as blue blood Is concerned,
about the purest In Cansda flows through
the reins of the French Canadians. Many
of ths old families of this claas oan trace
their ancestry back beyond the days of the
Mayflower. They are descended from the
feudal nobility created hers by the French
kings during colonial days. They are proud
of their ancestry, but on the whole are not
as clannish or as exclusive as the English,
who hare risen through money making
to social prominence.
