STIDE3T9 TO TRV MEMORIAL DAY
Track Meet with Mlaarsota Be
Held That Day.
LINCOLN, April T. (Special Arrsnge
ments heve been made for hnldlne- the an
nual track meet between the universities of
Minnesota ana iNervraska In Lincoln Mem
orial day. The meets of 1907 and 1906 were
pulled off In Minneapolis.
The fsct thst the meet, falls on Memo
rial day has stirred tip cobalderable specu
lation among the Cornhusker studenis as
to what action the county authorities will
take t prevent the contest. Knxaslng In
ball playing, horae racing or any gam of
sport on Msy 30 la a criminal offense In
this stste snd Is punlshsble by a fine not
exceeding M0, or by Imprisonment for not
more than thirty days. The holding of a
track meet on May 30 may not be regarded
ss a violation of this law, but there is no
doubt in the minds of the students thst
It Is Juat ss great an offense aa playing
ball on that day. They would like to have
the meet here May 80, since It Is a legal
holiday, hut they do not believe the county
officials will allow the contest to be pulled
off.
Before scheduling the meet for thst dav.
Manager Eager went to some members of
the board of regents snd other officials and
the Information he secured from them in
regard to the advisability of holding the
meet on Decoration day encouraged him to
decide on that date. He wss told to sched
ule the contest for that dale and not worry
about the violation of the law. He was
given to understand that the track meet
would not be an offense under the Decora
tion day law. It now seems unlikely that
Sny complaint agslnst the university eon
test will be made. Manager Eager Bays he
cannot change the date of the meet now
without the Cornhuakers losing their only
chance of meeting Minnesota on the cinder
path this yesr. He declares thst every ef
fort will be made to pull off the meet on
Memorlel day.
The Cornhuskers played the fourth base
bail game of the series with the Uncoln
Western lesgue team Monday afternoon
and were badly walloped by the score of 21
to 6. They lost the' other three games by
wide margins, but the defeat of thia con
test was the worst of all. The team Is
exceedingly weak this spring, and so far
In the league series has done worse than
the nine of last year. The pitching staff
Is not showing up ss well ss wss expected,
and the Infield has two or three weak men
filling positions. Not much Interest Is man
ifested In the varsity since the exclusion
of freshmen and the miserable showing of
the older men against the lesgue. borne
shifts In the pi a vera and the dropping of a
few will probably occur this week and It
la expected the team will be able to play
better ball for the rest ot the season after
that change.
KIDNAPERS ARB AFTER DICKY
California Outlaws. Holmes Claims,
Arc Trying; to Bast Him.
Ducky Holmes, so a report from-Sloux
City says, has hesrd of a dark, deep
seated plot on the part of the California
outlaw league to disorganise his team. The
story goes that Fred Weed ond other play
era have been tempted by fabulous sums of
money to leave Stoux City and Join the
coast pirates, but, like men, they have
stood to their guns and refused to see the
old ship sink.
Fred Weed is from Whlttler, Cal., a
pretty little nook near Ixs Angeles, and
his home state is getting so lonesome with
him so far away that the conspiracy con
templated his employment first s a
nucleus and then a general Invasion of the
Holmes' ranks until they are completely
disrupted.
Roscoe Miller, he who used to do some
fiitchlng for Des Moines, Is with the out
awn and Is charged with being the con
spirator who made the enticing offer to
Weed and proposed through him to reach
others.
Like a sweet-voiced angel from the
cavern of despair, though, comes the cheer
ing word that Weed and his compatriots
who were thus sorely tempted and tried,
have assured Ducky that they will stsy
loyally by him, that they have turned the
deaf ear to the siren.
Must not hav offered enough.
Meanwhile Ducky has reported tha al
leged kidnaping to Secretary Farrell and
the Western league sesson probably will
open on toma. .

Imagine ths horrors of silent war. It is
a tar more shocking, appalling possibility
than ths present crash of arms, even with

Courage In warfare Is said to be a matter
of getting used to-the din and overcoming
tha tremendous sense of personality cre
ated by the first thought of physical
danger. The truly brave soldier puts asldo
all Idea of his Individual safety, save to
the extent that his safety Is an element of
strength to his own side. But he asks
to know where the enemy lies. He seeks
merely to face tha foe. There la nothing
more demoralising than the swift rush of
a hidden force from ambush, or the un
expected volley from a masked battery or
trench. It has alwaya been the aim of the
great strategists to throw their opponents
into confusion by such sudden, unlooked

Recollections of a Political Episode of
the Later '60s.
A WOMAN AS A WIRE-PULLER
Efforts of Kate Chase Spragae ta Se
es re the Presidency for Her
Father Disappointed In Her
Great Vadertaklag.
Eaxh recurt-ent presldentlsl campaign
brings to mind some prominent feature
of the ones which have gone before, for
every one has had Its phase of unusual
Interest, but In none has a woman played
such an active part toward trying to nom
inate a candidate as forty years turo, when
beautiful Kate Chase used every means
that her social and political power could
command to make her father. Chief Jus
tice Chase, the successor of Andrew John
son. She' wss a brilliant and wonderful wo
man, who, when only In her early teens,
began, to study politics and show a mas
terful spirit; and whose! great ambition
was to see her father In the presidential
chair. With this end In view when she
came to live In Washington, Jier father
having been called from Ohio to a place -in
Lincoln's cabinet, would she extend tha
hospitalities of her father's home only to
those who were likely to be useful or
potential in helping her to advance his In
terest. Even In the matter of marriage. Kate
Chase chose one whose wealth would pro
vide her with means to set up a saldn at
the national capital, and also further her
ambition of seeing her father In the execu
tive mansion. When Governor William
Sprague came to the United States senate
from Rhode Island, he was considered by
far the greatest "eligible" In the country,
but Kate Chase soon outdistanced her
rivals In commanding his devotion, and at
twenty-three years of age became Mrs.
Sprague. The ceremony was performed
at the Chase mansion at Sixth and E
streets, Washington, and was long remem
bered as the most brilliant affair of the
time, for It was attended by statesmen,
soldiers, and diplomats.
Early Plans.
Mr. Chase wss now more than ever stim
ulated by his daughter In his ambition for
the presidency. As early as 1856, and again
In I860, had he been proposed as a candi
date for this office, and the following letter
will show the trend of his thoughts when
another presidential election was at 'hand:
"If I were controlled simply by personal
sentiments I should prefer the re-election
of Mr. Lincoln to that of any other man.
But I doubt the expediency of re-electing
anybody. I think a man with very differ
ent qualities from those the president has
will bd needed for the next four years. I
am not anxious to be regarded as that man,
and I am quite willing to leave ths question
to the decision of those who agree that
some such man should be chosen."
With Mrs. Sprague, however, the desire
to see her father Lincoln's successor dom
Inated her existence and she dexterously
exercised her hospitality and her social
leadership in encouraging the movement
which was organized In his behalf, with the
result that he retired from Lincoln's cablnt'..
Tfia president shortly afterward, notwith
standing the political rupture with Chase,
offered him a place op the supreme bench,
a vacancy having occurred, owing to the
death of Chief Justice Taney, the first tor
a period of nearly thirty years. The office
Chase accepted, though It was a great blow
to his daughter, as she saw In It a scheme
to head orf his ambition for the presidency.
It almost caused a rupture between Mrs.
Sprague and Charles Sumner, who was a
great friend, and who had warmly urged
the appointment of Chase, ' thinking him
well fitted for the supreme bench. The
first time she saw him after the nomina
tion had been confirmed she exclaimed:
"And you, too. In this business of shelving
papa! Never mind. I will defeat you all."
Publicity Bareaai In Aetloa.
Early In the year 1868 attempts Were
made to start a movement by which the
chief Justice might become tha candidate
for president on tne republican ticket, but
it was Impossible to make any headway
along this line, owing to the great popular
ity of General Grant. Attention was then
turned to the democratlo party by Chase's
friends, and early In the campaign did
Mrs. Sprague begin her work. She ap
pealed to party managers, to delegates,
and to newspaper editors to enlist them. In
her father: cause. Indeed, there was a
current rumor 1n Washington that to each
of the correspondents In that city who en
teredinto the service 3100 a week was paid
for their usefulness in keeping the Chase
movement before the public. Some Journal
ists who could not be bought were flat
tered with the elegant hospitality of Mrs.
Spraguc's drawing rooms.
The democratic national convention met
In Tammany hall. New York City, on
July 4, with Horatio Seymour as chairman,
and for four days there was a battle over
the presidential nomination, twenty-two
ballots hiving been taken before Its close.
The most conspicuouus names considered '
were General Hancock, George 11. Pen
dleton of Ohlu and Thomas A. Hendricks
of Indiana. The plana 'of the chief Jus
tice's friends, which were conducted under
cover, were to bring forward his rams
when the convention had beepmo' weary
of the prolonged deadlock.
Stupidity Caases Failure.
Mrs. Sprague, who had gone lo New
Tork, was In hourly communication with
Tammany hall by messengers, snd
through them she directed the men whom
she trusted. Anxiously she waited for
the moment of the great hurrah when
It was believed her father would csrry
everything by storm. I'pon her arrival
In New York she had sent for the shrewd
party manager. Samuel J. TUden himself
eight years later his party's candidate
and August Belmont, the head of, ths
democratic national organization, and tliese
gentlemen she urged to take up her fath
er's cause. For a time she succeeded In
creating a widespread impression that thes
leaders would further her father's ambi
tion when the favorable moment came.
The Joyrul news was brought to her on
the fourth day of the convention thst
Chase's name had been voted for by a dale
gale from California, that Tammany hall
was wild with enthusiasm, that all busi
ness had been suspended and that the gal
lery was clamoring for his nomination.
The expected break among the candidates
did not come, however, and It aas later
observed thst the stupidity of the chief
Justice's agents was responsible for ths
failure to force a stampede. Had the
daughter been able to get upon the floor
and talk to the delegates she might have
been able to persuade the leaders at the
critical moment and have swung the con.
ventloa to the chief Justice.
Opposed hy Haas Delegation.
The strongest opposition, ho ever,
came from his own state Ohio and Ills
enemies from there wers the ones who
demanded ths nomination of Horatio Sey
mour.. Almost Instantly there wss one of
those strange Impulses which sometimes
spring forth In gatherings like these, and
all other candidates were abandoned, and
In a few minutes the work wss done, and
Kate Chase Sprague's efforts were
brought to naught, and her great ambi
tion aas thwarted, leaving her a moat un
happy woman. She later expressed her
feelings In a letter to her father. "Ton
have been cruelly deceived and shame
fully abused by tha men In whom you
trusted implicitly. Mr. Tllden and Mr.
Seymour have done this work, snd Mr.
John Van Buren has been their tool."
Thus ended the last hope of an almost
accomplished dream, and this woman pos
sessed of so much personal charm and
power was forced to abandon her great
desire and turn her arts away from politics
to a great extent, although eight years
Ister. when the struggle for the presidency
was again at its height. It was believed
by many thst so great was her power still
that It was at her Instance the electoral
commission bill was Introduced, by which
Mr. Hayes was successful over Mr. Tllilen.
This wss In order to punish the latter gen
tleman for his part In blocking her plsns
for tha nomination of her father.
fn" the social world her triumphs wero
still themes of gossip, and In speaking ot
her great success In, all fields, a friend of
hers snid: "It It because when ahe is talk
ing to you, you feel that you are the very
person she wanted to meet; that she has
forgotten your existence the next moment
is an afterthought."
From Affluence ta Poverty.
About the time of tne financial crash
of 1S7S, which brought about he dissipa
tion of the Sprague millions. It began to
be rumored that the domestic relations of
the fsmily were not aa they should be,
and that, though living In the same house,
the husband and wife were not on speak
ing terms, snd that the handsome senator
from New Tork, Roscoe Conkllng, wss the
cause. Whenever he entered the floor of
the senate with whst Blsine called his
turkey-gobbler stunt, to deliver a speech,
It was an unusual occurence If Mrs.
Sprague was not his most Intense listener
In the gallery. Complications followed, and
In 1879 there was a sensational report of
the sepsratton of the Sprsgues at Narra
gansett Pier, and the flight of the wife.
Later there was a divorce granted, snd
Mrs. Sprague wss henceforth known as
Miss Kate Chsse, for the next twenty
years her fortunes were verled. After a
stsy In Paris she returned to the scene of
her former splendor snd power, but, alas!
a new generation had token hold of public
affairs and she found herself with few
friend.
When Chief Justice Chase first came tr
Washington he purchased a tract of land,
Including about 250 acres, two miles from
the city, and on this was a large red brick
house, which commanded a view of the
capltol. To this home his daughter gave
the nsme of "Eflgewood," and here were
spent the happiest yeara of her life with
her father. It was here she lived upon her
return to WSshlngton, and though at first
she attempted to enter the social field. She
found her income was too limited snd she
Was obliged to sink Into obscurity. More
than once her home was advertised for

SOME INTELLIGENT ANIMALS
Stories Tending; ta Refute the Nat.
' uralist'a Denial of Their
Reasoning Power.
Julian Burroughs, of whose eminence I
am profoundly Ignorant, says In a sport
ing periodical that he never encountered
a dog, wild animal, or bird story In which
any of these animals displayed any les
soning power, nor had he observed reason
In any animal.
What does he think of this story, from
the great Darwin: "Mr. C. winged two
ducks, which fell on the fsrther sldo of
the stream. His retriever tried to bring
over both at once, but could not succeed;
she then, though never before known to
ruffle a feather, deliberately killed cne
bird, brought over the other, and returned
for the dead one.
In this case the retriever, after de
liberating, broke through a habit which Is
Inherited thst of not killing gamo re
trievedthus showing how strong the rea
soning faculty must , have been to over
come a fixed habit."
This Mr. Burroughs,, after telling a story
of a student who stbpped a flow of
molssses from a hole In a barrel with his
hands until a plug could be found, said
that no animal would have reasoning power
enough to ssve Its food supply by simply
holding. Its paw on a hole through which It
wss escaping.
Darwin says that he has noticed when
small object Is thrown on the ground,
beyond the reach of the . elephaat in the
soologtcat garden, be blows through his
trunk on the ground beyond the object,
so that the current of sir reflecting on all
sides msy drive the object within resch.
A noted ethnologist observed In Vienna
a bsar deliberately making with his paw
a ourrent In some water which was close
to the bars of his cage so as to drsw a
piece of floating bread within Its resch.
These actions of the elephant and bear
could hardly be attributed to Instinct or
Inherited habit, as they would be of little
use to an animal In a state of nature.

CLUB HABITJN! NEW YORK
onaethlu About Their amber. Their
luurr Life and Member,
ship.
a"
The total club membership ot New York
probsbly amounts to very nearly half a
million. Of this total fully a third are
members of purely social clubs. New York
snd the other American cities as well, bor
rowed the Idea of permanent soclnl clubs
from IOndon. In London the club was n
evolution from the old-time tsvern or rof.
fee house on the one hand and the gamb
ling house on the other.
Nearly all of the' clubs are located In tha
best residential district of the city, the
upper Fifth avenue quarter, and on the
buildings and decorations great sums have
been expended. The Metropolitan club, fer
Instance, popularly known as the "Mil
lionaires," occupies half a block in Fifth
avenue snd Sixtieth street, facing Central
park; the cost of land, buildings and dec
orations Is conservatively estimated at
nearly 82,000,000.
Despite the amounts Invested In land and
buildings, however, despite the luxurioua
ness of furnishings, and, the excellent sera
vice. New York clubs arc nn economy to
the single man and a minor expense to the
married one. In the matter. of initiating
fees snd annual dues New York clubs
are perhaps the most Kxpenslve In . the
world; on the other hand, Ithe general cost
of living In Now York la greater than else,
where, and taking thia. Into- consideration,
tne viuiib riiunira me not excessive.
The most exclusive club, membership In
which Is a social asset, the Knickerbocker,
has an Initiation fee of 8.TO0 and annual
dues of $100; at the' Metropolitan the ini
tiation Is also 33t) snd annual dues 3125;
the Union, the University, the Union
League, the' Itos, the' New York Athletic,
the Brook, the player,, tho Lambs, the
'rollers, the Century and' others rang In
Initiation tecs from 3100 to 3.W, and In an
nual dues from 850 to 3100.' These charges
are not excessive? In view of the eonvenl.
ences afforded the members; the annual
expenses for maintenance vary from tlOOO
In a small club, with a membership ot
400 and under," to about $35,000 for the larger
clubs.
When a member liss pald'hls dues, his,
further expenses are, a matter of Individual
choice. There are many men of compara
tively small Income who' make their club
their home, because, the cost of living 'Is
more moderate than it would be at a hotel
which offered tho, soma service and ac
commodations. Of course, a man may
spenu as mucn as tie can afford at his
club; the member who spends 310,000 a year
Is no more rare or Infrequent, than tha
member who spends $2,000. Ttestaurant
charges are moderate;, clgara and liquor
cost somewhat less than they do at a hotel.
To some club membership a kind of
fad. J. Plerpont Morgan, for Instance, la
a victim of this mania; he belongs to
thirty-five clubs, and hla membership dues
