PriMnpeets for rscing about Omaha are
batltir than for several years. The re
habilitation of tha old fair greumia track
will e of great service to tha local horse
owners. If It no mora than revives Interest
ta the extent that It provides for matinee
rscing. Cos of the Inexplicable things has
been that Omaha, situated In the vsry en
ter of a great breeding section for harneea
horses, from which soma notable kings and
q-joens of the turf have been sent out. and
inhabited by people whose love and ad
miration for the horse Is testified by the
most successful of American borse shows
annually, should fcava no part in racing.
4Th. men now engaged In an effort ia re
vise the sport ought to feel encouraged
and should be supported In their efforts to
provide the entertainment for tha people
who like to see horse ractng.
The Nebraska athletic authorities are pro
roslng that a foot ball gam be brought to
Omaha if a field can be secured. Just at
present the proposition Is made In vaqrue
and general trms. If Manager Eager will
hr'ng forward some definite pmpoitltion
he will not find It hard to secure the en
roll. men t required. But he must bear

braelia and Ames will plsy font bail In
Omaha November 7. VP. If th commercial
club of that clfy will provide a place for
playing the gam."
Thl statement waa mada by Manager
Eager of tha athletic department of the
University of Nebraska yesterday upon
th receipt of a ht.ter from Prof Beyer
of Ames, statins; that th Iowa Agrfes had
decided to accept th Cnrnhaskers' prop
osition) for a game In Omaha, and that
they were ready to slam contract for th
contest.
"Now that th Ames athletic authorises
have agreed to play th Comhuakers In
Omaha next fall." said Manager JCsser,
"It Is op to th Omah Commercial club
and newspapers to show me that they
want th big gam by doing th rlrhf thing
In regard to getting field. If Amea and
Nebraska meet on tha gridiron nsxt fall
It muat ba in Omaha, for the Iowa Aggloa
will not come to Lincoln and we will not
go to Ames. Unless th Omaha Commer
cial club and foot ball enthuaiaasts will
agree to furnish a field ot which to plaj
the game, we will not gn there and will
not play Ames thla year. The expenses
of both teama in playing In Omaha will
be heavy, and we will not b able to pay
out a large share ot the gate reeclpts for
the us of a field. Omaha, people now
have a chance to ahow that they really
want to see th Comhoskers In a great
foot ball game. They will get th N
braska-Amea contest f they will provide
a field for our use on November X."
. Amea Casaar G4 Cowieat.
Tha Amea game Is regards aa th "big'
conteat of the Corahuaker season, and Is
expected to b tha greatest foot bail
struggle the Carlisle-StLotila gam
Thanksgiving day exceptedthat will be
played in the Missouri Valley in 190S. Ns
braska haa two- other formidable elevens
on Its schedule In Iowa and Wabash, but
ought to defeat both of them. Ames haa
alight schedule and ought to win all of tha
gamea next fall -tha Nebraska contest ex
cepted with ease. Other Important game
in the valley next fall will b the Iowa-
Kansas and Mlewmrl-Kansa contest.
These games, however, ar not looked
upon as being nearly aa important aa tha
Nebraska-Ames contest la which tha
championship of the valley will probably
sfatn be decided. Both teams, according
to present prospects, will be fully as
strong aa last fall, and ought ta so thronrh
the season to this gam with a clean
record. In case they do, a repetition ot the
great struggle of last fall for th chanv
pionehlp of th valley may be expected. Ia
the gum between th two schools last
Novemoer. tha elevens struggled through
seventy minutes of th greatest foot ball
ever seen on .Nebraska field with . th
score resulting, ID to S in favor of th
Comhuakers. Thla gam wVm Nebraska
the - title ef champions of th Missouri
valley.
Th' Nebraaka-Ames gam next fall will
b th first "big", foot baa cont that
baa been held In Omaha since 1!1. On
November ot that year th Corehuskcrs
met Missouri In a gam at th Toung
Men' Christian association park, which
had been looked, forward to as a hard
contest, fur Nebraska. It. however, proved
to he an easy on for tha Comhuakers,
ar.i they walked off with tha long end of
1 to a score. A crowd of over S.01W po-
pia witnessed the game.
Ess f Lmm Jfegetiatloaa.
The agreement between Nebraska and
Amea for a game tn Omaha next fall
marks the cloe of negotlationa that have
been carried on by tha athletio managers
of ih two schools sine last November.
At on tint It seemed as if th efforts of
tha managers to agree on the terms and
place for a gam would be futile and that
1S would not wltnea a eonteat between
th Comhuakers and Aggie. Ames haa
b.'?n to Lincoln annually for th last five
or six y?ars. and thought that Nebraska
ous'nt to go to Ames next fall. Th Corn
huakera. however, "would not accept tha
prrno!tion for a gam tn Iowa, and Ames
steadfastly refused to coma to Lincoln. A
proposition for holdings th gams In Omaha
waa mad, but th Aggie would not ao
cept It. Negotiaxlona then ccas&l for a
while, and It waa taken aa a certainty
that th two teams would not meet on
th gridiron this year. A, fuw weeks ago
It waa again proposed that the two teams
play the annua! game In Omaha. Amea,
by that time, aeulng ti'at Nebraska, would
not consent tu play In Iowa, decided to
accept tha proposition for ptayUig la
O'nsha. Te e'ecmfvt by Prof. Beyer
of Ames that ha was rea-ly to slan eon-,
tracts for tha gam waa a result of that
decision.
The Comhuaker bas bail mea returned
to practice Thursday and bttgan final work
in preparailoa for tha annual eastern trip.
3verai change have been mada in the
lineup of tha team sines tha first gams j

NEW YORK. April X. The new system
of betting, which ba ba put into fore
at Aqueduct rut track may be all right
from tha viewpoint of tha steward of tha
Jockey cftib. but St never will he twrotilar
with th men who lay th odd. With
the little follows, thoe who- ar struggling
to gat a. Gold a real bo.kmukrs. It may
b alt right, but th old-timers, those who
have don a little gathering and who have
enough salted away to keen th wolf from
tn door, look upon It with disgust and
ar not alow ta declare that if It la con
tinued they will go out of Ui business.
Of course they don't mean this, but even
ir tney ao go the majority will sot ba
missed. Men Ilk Sol. Cowan. Loula Can.
Walters, Hughy Quinn, and In fact all the
big gune of th ring, who for year hav
been used to sitting down tn perfect com-
rort and having a Plnkerton in front of
their atsnda. or rather stool, to keep- off
th crowd, are now Pushed and ahnverf
around Just th aam aa th youngster
breaking into th gam.
But It Isn't going to do them any good.
Th Jockey club has at last taken a tight
hald of affair of the turf, betting as well
aa everything else connected with it, and
thoa who do not Hka prevailing conditions
hav the remedy in their own hands. They
can step down and out, and the on best bet
is that they never will find special mes
senger watting on their doorstep to ask
them to coma back.
TheHmblio seemed to really Ilka tha new
aystem. For years It ha galled them to
hand their money to a bookmaker Bitting
Int comfort on high stool, and half of
the tlrn to b insulted or pushed astd
by soma runner. Now they can se tha
bookmaker getting a little of his own medl-
cin .and they ar not sorry.

Two mora namoa will be added to this list
before the men go abroad in June.
The inclusion of G. S. Patterson In th

nature of an experiment, as he has not
been abla to dovota much tlm to th gam
In recent years. Ht waa for many years
th beat all-round cricketer in th United

probable that i. A. Lesrer will act a

Th tour provides for just two months'

NEW TOBK, April R. Ther via a new
record established In th Atlsntle City
Country club tournament last fall when
two of the home club, W. E. Bhackleford and
Fred ft. Sherman, cam In at the top ot tha
list for th first sixteen cup. 8hekelfnrd
had once before been runner bp fir thla
trophy, but it waa th Initial outright suc
cess of an Atlantic City golfer for th
moat Important prise ot th tournament,
and It waa the only tlm also that two
local men had been In th final. The
tournament ha been held sine 1399. It I
held semi-annually and th spring event
for this year la to be on Thursday, Friday
and Saturday, when th seaside resort will
be thronged with golfers.
At'antla City vu quick to follow the
lead of Newport, Southampton Aiken and
Florida In setting up a golf course, for hotel
resorts are a keen aa rival belle to in
crease their attractions. But the early
links were soon superseded by thw country
club and a full, course, a change due to the
desire ot the residents to play th gam
and not with tha daslre to tncrsas tha
visitor to the resort, although the latter
result has followed In the natural order of
events, especially during tha tournament.
The narrow atrip of aaud between the At
lantic and tha bay that I pre-empted by
the great pleasure ground haa no epac
for a golf course, but further down tha
beach and act as th Inlet th Ideal condi
tions were to be had in the fishing and

There war hot times at tha inaugural
tournament of the club, even If In De
cember, 1899, and ih) blustry weather. Find
lay Douglas waa the favorite of the big
field to win the chief cup. but W. D. Davis,
who had ted th medal round with 178,
beat him In the final, and Fred P. Kimball
won tha second sixteen cup. Two "three
win and out" cups were put into play at
the aprirag tournament of both very
rich and artistic trophies. They wera the
Atlantis City cup for the first sixteen and
th president's cup for th second sixteen.
Ther was much good golf" before they
passed respectively into th permanent
posaeaaion of W. J. Travis and - C H.
Fownea, Jr.. yet th polity of th Country
club haa been sine changed to give only
"to b won outrtght" cup.
Travis beat Douglas by 4 and Z to secur
hla first bracket on the Atlantic City cup.
and he wca a nonstarter tn the fall of 19k
when Douglas gained the bracket. Ha beat
Davis by 4 and t tn the final and a time
makes alt things even ao wiped out th
winter trouncing of tha initial tournament.
Th next contest for th Atlantis City cup
was tn, tha fall . ot 19m, Travis baa ting
Douglas tn th final by 4 and L Th next
spring Travta achieved full poeawaaloa, th
pponent In th final being- EL A. Darby,

The president's ' cup waa In play until
tha fall of 190. W. E. Shackelford of th
horn guard and C B. Fownea. Jr.. of Pitts
burg had each two wins en it when that
tournament began. Both qualified for the
first sixteen and under the' rule had tha
right to challenge th winner of th second

An epen event of Importance to th feml-
ain wlelders ef the club held at Atiantl
City was th Woman s Eastern Oolf asso
elation tournament ef 19M. Harry Tardon
waa at th course In ISO and beat the best
ball of H. K. Harrimanv then amateur
champion, . and Flndley Douglas In thirty
six notes by 9 up and to play. Th course
was pronounced by Vardon to be mora
auggeattv of a British seashore link than
any ha had aaan bare. Bine hla visit th
ig-hteen holes hav been extended ta Dearly
(.OM yard and Improved by new hasarda
aa4 sand traps, with soma undulating
putting- greens.
Tha border to much of th fair green is
the reed-covered marsh extending ta the
bay, but beyond I th Atlantic, and there
ta generally a breeae from the aea to stim
ulate the players. Frederick Hamsley baa
be a a th president' since the beginning of
th Atlantic City Country club, J. Haines
Llppencott treasurer and Walter E. Edge
secretary. This spring's tournament com
mute ta Walter K. Edge, J. Haines Llp
peneott, I. S. Sherman aad 7. C. Rob
bins. For a couple of years th club tried th
team match plan, th scores to b the
best aggregate of the four or alz entered
mad tn th qualifying round, but with th
large entry It waa found ta bo more
trouble than It waa- worth. This tlm th
entire first day will b given up to a
thirty-alx hole qualification play, the lowest
scorer to receive a gold madal and six
sixteen to Qualify for eupe at mtt-H play.
Thar will be prise also for th runner up
in each sixteen. All match play rounds
will be of eighteen hole.
Tha Country club haa established th rule
ef something doing every minute for ail
who attend Its tournaments. Aa 'a ennsa
quence there will b a special consolation
-event on the second day for the defeated
eights f each sixteen. On Saturday, beside
the finale, there will b an eighteen-hole
medal play handicap for gross and net
score prises. Delays ar dangerous at thla
tournament, for players will forfeit their
matchea who do not step oa the ta at the
scheduled time. AH prises ere to be won
outright, but, except the qualifying round
medal, a contestant may win but one prtxa
during the tournament.
No greater mistake can be made than
to consider lightly the first symptoma
of any disease. Many a brlaht and prom
ising carer has been wrecked through
reglsct or Improper treatment at th com
mencement. When a man's health Is con
cerned he should not experiment with un
certain, dangerous or unreliable treatment,
or jeopardise his future health and happi
ness by nealect. Why take auch desperate
chances when you can secure th services
of the honeet skillful, experienced and
