KI EN IMEHKST BIG GAMES I'Ornl Fans Are Wrought I'p Orer Three-Cornered Base Ball Fight. Interest in the three great base ball con tebis has b.en whetted to a fine point by the close righting of the various teams. Pittsburg and Detroit have a victory apiece, so huve New York Nttnni nrf ISoston Americans, while the Cuba have won two and the Sox one. This makes It about hm Interesting as could well be und the results this week will be watched with an eager eye. In the New York-Boston race there Is no such great interest out west as there is in the other contests, but fans are willing lo read the returns Just to see how tho Nationals and Americans are golog to complete this three-cornered fight for supremacy. Outside of the mere fact that tha Tigers and Pirates ura fighting for the world's championship, greatest Interest locally centers in the race between the two Chi cago teams and betting has been favor able to the Cubs. Now that the Sox have won a game this interest will be keener. The Sox. and especially the old Roman personally, have scores of friends and ad mirers In Omaha and vicinity who are boosting for them. The Cubs are popular locally, but their owner. Murphy, Is as unpopular here as he Is everywhere else in the country. But the fact that so many Omaha players huve gone to the Cubs give them the edge In public favor. Omaha fnna are hoping to see their old favorite. Jack Pfelster, put In for at least one game egnlnst the Sox. If Sam Crawford does not get Inspiration from tho "folks at home" in these Detrolt littsburg games It won't be because the folks are not boosting for lilm. Wahoo is as faithful as ever. At the end of every three Innings the detailed score Is bulletined by Dvorak, of that town and the fans gather around to see what Sara has done. When the returns of Saturday's Kama showed Sam hud driven the ball to the outfield for two bags there was great hilarity In Wahoo, where this same Sam lives when at home. Mate Base Ball Leaaae.

NEBRASKA'S HOPES ABE RISING Showing; Made Analnst Knox Ka ron raxes Rooters that Tennt Mar Snrprlae the Gophers la Omaha Saturday. Earl O. Eager, n.anager (it the Corn huskers, brought the reserved seat tickets for the Nebraska-Mlr.tiesota game to Omaha yesterday ard they will be put on sale this morning at the Myers-Dillon store, Sixteenth and FariVam streets. The de mLi.d for these scats seems to be un precedented. Judging from the mail orders which have been coming In since the an ncui. cement was made as to whero the tickets were to be sold. An enormous crowd will surely be on hand long before time Is called for the big Cornhusker-Gophcr battle Saturday. To handle this large number of people Mr. Eager has arranged to have fifty Omaha High school cadets In uniform as ushers and besides a large number of police. Seats will beprovlde'd for over ,000 people and the remainder will have to, stand along the side lines. Governor Shallenberger notified Mr. Eager Sunday that he would be on hand with a party and asked that aeata be reserved for him. This will be done. Mayor Love of Lincoln will also be present In another box with a large party of Lin coln officials. Ex-Mayor Brown of Lin coln, who Is also a strong rooter for the Cornhuskers. has already secured a box. Mayor Dahlman of Omaha will also wlt ntts the game and may make the first klckoff If he has time to practice up little this week. A block of seats was put on Bale Satur day afternoon at Lincoln and a long line of buyers stood in front of the chart all afternoon, indicating a large sale from that city. Not only will a couple of thou sand students be on hand, but also large numbers of citizens of Lincoln. Cornhnaker Camp Brighter. Nebraska's crushing defeat of Knox yes terday has thrown the Cornhtisker camp Into a Joyful mood and many of the stu dents are encouraged to believe their eleven stands a good chance of holding Minnesota to a low score In the annual clash at Omaha next Saturday. The easy time the Gophers had !n de feating Ames ; at Minneapolis yesterday, though, has again warned "King" Cole that Minnesota Is a powerful foot ball ag gregation this season and that it will take marvelous machine to prevent an over whelming defeat when the Gophers are met on a dry field. Conch Cole will not venture to say that his men will beat ,the Gophers, but he announced1 yesterday that he. would begin training his pupils this afternoon to break up the Minnesota offensive plays. Work will probably take place at the state farm all week, where secret practice will be the order. It la understood tho Nebraska coach has several new plays that he will uncork and these will be given to the team on the first day of practice. Nebraska's only hope of holding the Gophers to a Tow-score is to stop the won derful playing of the backfield. In which McGovern, Pickering and Johnson have starred in the games against Iowa and Ames. "King" Cole says these men will have to be checked or else the Cornhuskers will he beaten by a big score. It was McGovern and Johnson who plowed through the of fense of Ames yesterday and, during the first half, completely outclassed the men from Iowa. There was no stopping the two Gopher backs and had there been no rain In the second half It is very probable that Ames would have been crushed as badly as Iowa was on the .previous Saturday. Cole More Confident. "When It Is remembered,'! said "King1 Cole, In talking over the game, "that Ames made Its down but twice and then on end runs. It will be seen how powerful the Gophers are. Ames la heavy, yet It could not penetrate that Minnesota line. And its own line could not stand up under the charges of the Gopher backs. "It surely Is a hard task the Cornhuskers have before them in getting ready for Minnesota. We have some good plays, though, and my energies this week will be devoted to building up a defense that will stop the charges of the fast Gopher backs, I believe Nebraska can hold Minnesota, to two touchdowns." All the Cornhuskers came out of the game with Knox in fine condition. Not a man was Injured and the entire eleven will start with no men on the hospital list. The success of the forward pass and on side kick as used . by the Cornhuskers against Knox elated "King" Cole, who be lieves these two plays will be good ground gainers against Minnesota. Most of the practice this week will be devoted to perfecting the team in the use of these two plays. To get these plays down pat Is Nebraska's only hope for scor ing on tho Gophers and the Cornhuskers Intend to work like real fiends all during the week in order to have these plays so well learned that they will be able to exe cute them with accuracy and precision. DIETS TEAM BEATS ALL-STARS Monmonth Parka Take Measure of Tigers Both Games at Florence. The Diets club eleven opened the season at Florence yesterday, playing an "all-star" aggregation, and defeating them by the score uf 11 to 0. The game with the Su periors was called off until November 7. From present Indications It looks as though the Diets eleven will more than live up to its former reputation, as they have one of the fastest elevens Omaha has seen for many a moon. Coad, a former Notre Dame warrior, Bhowed up in fine form ooth on the offen sive and defensive. Maxwell, a recruit from Fort Omaha, played a stellar game, his line plunges being very effective. For the All-Stars, Williams, Hachten and Smith were continually in the limelight, their work on the defensive being particularly strong and on the offensive most of the gains were made by this trio. The Diets team scored In both halve., the first touchdown being made by Steck after Wulgley made a spectacular sixty-yard run, but was down on the five-yard line. Qulg ley missed a difficult goal. In the second half Coad slipped away for a slxty-ftve-yard run, bringing the ball to the twenty-yard, line and after a series of line plunges, Coad made the last touch down of the day. Quigley kicked a diffi cult goal. Score: 11 to . The second game was between the Mon mouth Parks and the Tigers, and It was tard fought from the beginning to the finish, resulting in favor of the Monmouth Parks by a score of & to 0. After playing the first game, Quigley also played with the Monmouth Parka. He made many spectacular runs, the last one for sixty yards and a touchdown.

Dakota Great Wealth Producer Excels Neighbors on North and East in Amount Raised on Per ,' Capita Basis. PIERRE, S. D Oct. 10. (Speclal.)-Doane Robinson, of the state statistical depart ment has been making comparative figures on production of newt wealth In the north western states, and by the government figures, on which his calculations are based he finds that South Dakota continues to hold Its lead In production of new wealth cased on per capita of population. His figures show that the cereal production of the state of Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota, for tho period from 1900 to 1908, was. per capita, Iowa, biS.94: Minnesota, 1403.06; North Dakota, (1,107.50; South Dakota, $1,114,06. The live stock figures for the same period were, Iowa, $163.60; Minnesota, $62.60; North Dakota. $171.30; South Dakota, $223.40. t For 1909 the cereal production of these states was, Iowa, $67.50; Minnesota, $66.30 North Dakota, $190.90; South Dakota, H9j.!)0. These figures show that South Dakot continues to hold the lead for production of new wealth among the different states of the northwest, and with the increased area opened to production the last few years, will, no doubt, hold It for some time to come.

TICKETS AT DOUBLE PRICE In Addition to This They Are Com pelled to Par Interest on the Grenter Sam Hearing; De fore Commissioner. WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. "These poor people on the other side are made by the steamship agents to mortgage their prop erty to get their tickets to come here. The matter has gone to such a length that It has been taken up by the State department with the Greek government." This statement was made by Assistant Commissioner General of Immigration Lamed In the course of the recent hearing of representatives of foreign newspapers who urged the conserving of the Immi grant's right of appeal and the placing of men representing the various nationalities that supply the largest number of Immi grants on the special board of Injulry. There were ' some Interesting colloquies leading up to the final agreement that the department's practices were even more lib eral as a whole than tha reforms sug gested. Secretary McHarg asked questions to bring out suggestions and details. "Is it not well known," he asked among other things, "that this business Is stimulated by steamship companies and tickets are sold at exorbitant rates?" "The business does not exist among the Christian people. I have no knowledge of It," relied Louis N. Hammerllng of counsel for the complainants. "But It has been brought to your atten tion ?" "Yes." Bis; Interest to Pny. "The immigrant finds that he has to pay 6 per cent on twice the amount of money It should have cost for tickets," inter jected Mr. Lamed. "Is not the person with the prepaid ticket more or less likely to become a public charge?" continued Mr. McHarg. "He is confronted with the debt, which is usur ious and a great burden. He Is confronted with two or three times the normal cost of transportation, where If ne had paid his fare out of his own pocket he could buy his own ticket at a normal cost." "I never heard of such a thing," replied Mr. Hammerllng, "until I came to New York. Somebody told me there were a good many peddlers selling tickets on com mission." Charles Dushkind, appearing as counsel for the foreign newspapers, contended that even If the money comes to the Immigrant from a sixteenth cousin or only a friend, if It precludes him from becoming an ob ject of charity, if he Is ablebodled and not otherwise disqualified, he ought to be landed. "If he has $50 today," he added, "he Is entitled to land. If he comes with four or five sick children and has only, say $23. he Is likely to become a publlo charge."
