Nebraska Defeats
South Dakota in
Basket Ball Game
Clote Match, but the Cornhuskers
Pull Under the Wire with a
Score of 30 to 25.
T-fNCOI-N. Feb. J-Ppecal Telegram.) -By
a a'ire of 30 to 2b the I'nlversitv of
Nebraska defeated the t'nlverslty of South
Dakota here last night In one of the best
played games of basket ball ever seen on
the local floor. The contest was a Scrap
from start to finis i. with the Cornhuekcr
having slightly the better of the argument
through their team work, which the visitors
were unable to break up.
At times the Nebraska quintet showed
sign of slownef. when the Coyote would
attempt to place themselves on record with
the big end of the score. However. Ne
braaka would come bark with a flash of
team work, which would rapidly overcome
the advantage which the visitor had
gained and again take the lead.
The game waa exciting throughout, the
acore being ( lose enough to keep the crowd
on the aniioua seat all the time, and the
enthusiasm was an great that It waa neces
sary for the referee to call a foul on the
home team because of the noise of the
crowd, which prevented the
from hearing the whistle.

For the visitor Paulson waa easily the i

Royhl, the rival centers, attracted the
attention of the crowd time and again, a
the two men were almost evenly matched,
and their efforta to gain possession of the
ball gave fighting plrl enough to tha
'other members of the team to make It
I a rough a game as haa been seen on the
home floor this season.
Captain Hutchinson starred for the Corn
htiskers, scoring three point with a field
goal and a free throw before the Coyotes
got started. The visitors, nowever. soort
made up these point and before the Coin- ;
buskers could score again South Dakota ,

WNCOT.N. Feb. B.-(Speclal Telegram. 1
The Omaha High school, basket ball team
defeated a similar aggregation from the
Lincoln High achool at . the local Young
Men's Christian association last night by a
score of 30 to 19. The game was fast and
exciting throughout, but Omaha had the
ability to locate tho basket and break, up j
the team work of the I.lncoinitea to stich
and the visitors were, able to
core. In the closing minutes of the first I
half which totaled 15 to 9 when the time
keeper's whistle blew.
The second half started off slower, due
to the numeroua short passes of the local
team, but after about five minutes ot play
the speed waa Increased and, Omaha again
took the lead in the acorlng and after
hat. were never stopped. , .
The treatment of Miller, t,he referee, by
the apectators supporting the local five,
waa the moat dlacourteoua of any sin l on
official at a local game this winter. . hree
times when he called fouls on a Lincoln
player he was hlaaed until he was fairly
compelled to announce that the game would
be awarded the visitors unless quiet was
maintained. This statement followed the
penalising of a Lincoln min ami' the
hisses and hoots of the crowd, and wltii
the reault that the Omaha' player was
given a aecond try at the baaket. The
atand taken by the referee was cheered
by tha Omaha delegation and a part of the
Lincoln supporters.
The gam was clean throughout, and the
team work displayed by the Omaha quintet
as well aa the excellent ability of the
visitors to shoot field goals kept Lincoln
from having a chance to win except in
the early part of the second half. Crocker,
the left guard for the visitor, was the star
of the game, covering ground with the
ability of a veteran, and registering two
long -distance goal for his team, which
brought the crowd to Its feet. The game
ended with the acore standing 90 to 19
in favor of Omaha. The lineup:

MACON USES BITTER WORDS
Arkansas Man Attacks Stanley and
a Newspaper Writer.
KENTUCKIAN REPLIES TARTLY
Macon Nearly tomes to rllews valth
Reporter Fipreloas re Kx
panaed from Herorda h
Ills Ona Conaeat.
WASHINGTON. Feb. t -The first read
ing of the agricultural appropriation bill In
the house of representative yesterday pre I
pltated a bitter exchange of words between
Mr. Macon of Arkanaas and Mr. Stanley
of Kentucky and this later was followed
by a denunciation of a Washington news
paper man by Mr. Macon, which nearly
ended in an exchange of blows between the
two. Nearby congressmen, newspaper men
and the sergeant-at-arms prevented actual
hostilities.
In the linguistic exchange .between the
congressmen terms were employed which
called for their being expunged from the
record. The trouble between Mr. Macon
and the reporter came to a head Immedi
ately after adjournment waa taken for the
day.
Mr. Macon had bitterly assailed the re
porter, whom he denounced from the floor
because of an article printed this afternoon.
The demand of the reporter after adjourn
ment that the language directed against
him be expunged from the record caused
the storm to break.
Object to Ralaea.
With the flrt reading of the bill Mr.
Macon began to make points of order
against proposed increase of salary to
chief clerks and other employe. Several
members objected to this method of "per
sonal" legislation and appealed to Mr.
Macon In desist. This he declined to do.
Mr. Mucon had charged that nearly every
member of a committee had some "pet"
whom he was anxious to promote. And
to this end he said the members were
willing that other "pets" should go up in
the salary scale.
Mr. Stanley declared an assertion like
that Impeached the whole house. He
challenged Mr. Macon to show that any
member of the agricultural committee had
been guilty of "this Infamous conduct this
petty pilfering from the treasury of the
Cnited States."
Mr. Macon replied that he did not claim
to be the only honest man In the house,
but aaid he tried to do his duty - by his
rnnit It nner wn4 Inttmal thai -
, others not g congclentlou,i
Arising an hour later Mr. Stanley said
he would like to Insert In the record some
facts concerning his own "illustrious
record." the latter with a profound bow
toward Mr. Macon. . .
For instance, he said, he had Introduced
a resolution calling for an Investigation
of the "steel trust ' which would save the
people $25,000,000 a year on steel rails alone.
"But. of course." concluded Mr. Stanley,
"that peltry aum does not compare .with
the amount which has been saved through
the efforts of the gentleman from Arkansas
In cutting down the salaries of . char
women." ,
Macon Retorts.
Mr. Macon was on his feet in a moment.
"I don't know what ha called forth this
comment from the gentleman from Ken
tucky," he said, "unless It Is the case of a
hit animal, howling." ,
He then asserted that Mr. Stanley's seat
In the house had been vacant oftener than
it had been occupied. ,
Representative Burleson of Texas and
others Intervened, and brought about peace,
causing their remarks . made during the
colloquy to be expunged from the record.
When the afternoon paper .was shown to
Mr. Macon he waved, it aloft and said he
desired to call . the -attention of members
to a "thing that I hold In my hands and
that presumes to dlK-'fy Itself by claiming
to be a newspaper.".
"It says," continued Mr. Macon, "in big
black type that 'Macon Is denounced by
clerks' friends on the floor ot the house.'
Of course, I want to apologise to tne house
for noticing this -Insignificant sheet or any
utterance that may appear In it.
"But I want to know who Is denouncing
me. If he Is on the floor I want to see
him stand up, I want to see the color of
his hair and his eyes.
"In the absence of any member arising. I
propose to do a little denouncing myself.
The little atom that wrote this Item Is a
wilful, deliberate liar, a dirty little pilferer
of words, a contemptible little ass and a
falsifier of facts. I believe this little atom
should not have a Beat In the press gal
lery." laea Stroaar Ungnaga.
Mr. Stanley then said he wanted "to bear
cheerful testimony to the Incorruptible in
tegrity of the gentleman from Arkansaa, to
hia tireless vigilance and to say that he Is
an ornament to this house."
Mr. Macon, amid laughter, said he re
turned the compliment
Immediately upon adjournment the re
porter sought Representative Norrls of Ne
braska to enlist his aid In having the bitter
denunciation awept from the record. On
the floor he found Mi. Macon and made the!
demand of that gentleman.
Mr. Macon replied that he would stand

until such time a the anger of all had
