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.

FOOT BALL SEATS ON SALE

NEBRASKA'S HOPES ABE RISING

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. Golden and Calla
han also played great foot ball. For the
Tigers Singleton and Priesman were the
stars that shone brightest. Time of halves

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.

STEAMER LINES ON SPIT
Accused of Charging Excessive Rates
to Assist Immigrants.
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."
