PA GETS A THIRD BASEMAN Jack Farrell, a Speedy Chicago Voonitster, Is to Try for tbe 1'lnt-e. Jack Farrell. the Chicago amateur ball player who made auch a furore In that city last summer, will try out for third base with the Rourke's this spring. Farrell Is 22 yeara of age, of fairly good height and aatd to be one of the speediest young sters on the third sack that Chicago ever produced. If he makes good at Omaha, Farrell will take third base for a majority of the time, with Manager Bill Schipke to spell him now and then. George Hackenschmldt took two sirnlght falls Rt the Krug theater Mondsy from William Burn (.Mysterious Waffles" In iul-k order, the first coming to him In 11 minute' and ."!fl seconds and the second In 4 minutes. In spite of the shortness of the match It was undoubtedly the best In Omaha this year. It was real wrestling from the start to the finish. Hnckenschmldt wss obliged to catch a train shortly after 11 o'clock and It whs up to him to throw his man or miss the train. "Waffles'" on the other hand had It In n:lnd to slick as long as possible and the fight was great. The Russian Lion .with hi Immense strength went after his opponent In speedy style while Berne, who is one of the speediest of the 200-pound wrestler! and has Wonderful strength, took up the chal lenge and went after "Hack" In like manner. For eleven minutes the pair put lip the prettiest exhibition of wrestling seen In Omaha for a long time, Hackenschmldt several times almost having the lithe Berne down, only to have him wriggle out. The end of the first bout cHme when Hackenschmldt succeeded In making one of his attempts to throw Berne clear over by a head hold, and then finished It with the "double bridge." This wae done by Hack pivoting right around on his head and rest. lng his whole weight on Berne'a chest, breaking down the neck bridge made by "Waffles." The double bridge Is a hold used much on the continent, but seldom seen here. The second fall came In the next four minutes with a half-nelson and a body hold.. William Berne proved a surprise to the Omaha fans, who had not expected to find so good a man. He stands five feet eleven inches, and weighs slightly over 200 pounds. He is one of the best built men In the game, having Immense strength In the shoulders and arms. Although not as well versed In the points of the game aa his opponent he showed that with a man not Quite up to the standard of the Russian Lion he would have easily an even chance to be the winner.

Then, after four preliminary drafts, Mr. Fisher gave out' the following written statement, which Is, the only quotation he would allow: "1 have no statement to make except that I have accepted this position with a eep appreciation of Its obligations and of s opportunities to accomplish practical nd constructive work." Wednesday night or Thursday morning Mr. Fisher plans to go to Washington, where he will perfect his plans for taking fflce and then continue to, Chicago to ind up his personal affairs.

His friends expect to see him retain his committee membership, which pays no salary..

The association succeeded it as an or ganization of Individuals and President Taft. Its first announced member, gave out his acceptance in a letter to Mr. Fisher. No stress Is laid here on the fact that Glfofrd Plnchot Is now president of the association, of which Mr. Fisher Is a vice president, nor is it thought to give any hint as to what policy he wll pursue In his conduct of the department.
