Tomorrow is the magic day for which
the base hall fans and the players of
Omaha have Impatiently awaited all win
ter. The training season of the Rourkes
has arrived and Ta will 'have them busily
engaged In working out at'the new grounds
Monday morning;.
All of the Omalias will not be on hand
for the first day's practice,, but before the
week has advanced very far they will all
be In uniform and working hard to per
fect an organisation that will grab that
pennant rag for Omaha. Only two of the
players owned by Omaha will not report:
Ptowera, the bltcher, and ' 'Lefty" Davis,
outfielder.
The advance guard arrived in Omaha the
latter part of last week. Clay Schoonover
achieved Immortal fame by being the first
to report, but he was followed Saturday
by Ollle Pickering, who came from Minne
apolis, and Art Hall, the pitcher, whom
Pa received from St. Ioula. Ollle Picker
ing was accompanied by his son, Joe, who
has been playing amateur hall In Minne
apolis, snd If he finds himself able to hit
any of Pa's pitchers will try for'the pro
fession al ranks.
The complete lineup or the Rourkes, as
they will report here this week, Is
follows:
Pitchers Durbln, Hall. Keeley, Fentress,
Rhodes, Lots, Patton, Riley, Roves, Slnde-

Catchers Gondlng, S. A gnaw, T. Agnew,

In winning a game. Hall Is no poor stick
or he wouldn't have been nlckked up for
big league company, and when the sum

greatly. Lots, Patton, Bovee, Hlndelar and
Riley are to be alien the chance of their
lives to pitch winning base ball.
Jimmy Kane at first base promises to be
the sctntallating star of the Rourke lineup.
That big tall form of Jimmy's -will stop
any ball coming for first and his hitting
is getting to be the pride of the league.
when it comes to bringing in runs. Kneavea
will burn up things at abort and Pa will
be lucky it he can persuade himself to

Jack Johnson Talks
of-Going Abroad to
Remain Some Years
Puff Changes His Plan and Expects to
Go to England and France to
Do Some Fighting.
CHICAGO, March 18. Speclal Telegram.)
Jack Johnson Is on the point of saying
goodbye to America for several years. In
stead of . passing his time ' on the coast
with his automobile and other pleasures,
to the exclusion of his "life work," it
api ears that the champion has been slyly
preparing himself for battle.
A letter rocelved from San Francisco
today brings out the fact, that Jack is
ready to stop Into the ring at a week's
notice. He baa slipped away from his
friends every day and taken long hikes
on the road. He also has been sparring
in a private gymnasium, unknown except,
to a chosen few. He Is , said to be In
every way as good as ' when he fought
Jim Jeffries on that fatal day . at' Reno.
This change of action on Jack's part
was brought about by several communi
cations received from Rngland. Jack
learned that Mcintosh was mapping out
a long schedule for him In his London
and Paris rings. Included In the list
are battles with several of the best heavy
weights left In the division, starting with
lesser known lights and culminating in
a world's championship event.. This last
go will be probably to bring AI Kaufmann
up as his opponent.
The amount of money which Mcintosh
suggests Is so large It baa caused Jack
to forget there la such a place as the
United States. Moreover, Johnson realises
he stands more chance for enthusiastic
backing abroad than he does in this coun
try, as the race feeling does not exist
there.
This report from the coast, following so
closely on the news that Hugh Mcintosh
is on the point of sailing for America to
try and induce Johnson to go abroad
with him, shows Johnson has taken the
affair seriously, because he Is nut the
man to work for weeks and weeka unless
there Is somrthlng tangible In sight From
all Indications Jack will not fight in the
United States again for some time, and
fans here will not see him in his battles
for the title unless they go abroad.

DOGS WILL REIGN THIS WEEK
aasaaaaaaaasa
Nearly Three Hundred Entered for
the Show at Auditorium. '
CATS WELL BE ON THE STAGE
Katrle Have Poared ta from
All Over tha Cesitry aad Sac
cess of the Show Is
Assared.
The first big bench show ever held In
Omaha will open Wednesday at the Audi
torium with 2X5 ' dogs on exhibition and
more than fifty cats. Omaha's Initial at
tempt at showing dogs resulted in having:
a two-point show,- bringing it up to the
class of bench exhibitions held in Kansas
City every year and other larger cities of
the country.
Omaha fanciers have the largest list of
dogs in the show, but the Omaha canines
will be outnumbered considerably by the
visiting dogs. The Omaha entries fall
short of a hundred in number, so the out-
of-town dogs will number nearly twice as
many as the local.
Chicago, Kansas City, St Louis, Sioux
City and Des Moines all have dogs In the
Omaha show, many of them reputed prize
winners. From Sioux City will come
"Champion Faust," declared to bs the
champion cat of the country. Tha Chicago
Kennel club has corns to the front and Is
sending fifteen fine dogs of various breeds.
Ths list of prizes set up by tha Omaha
Kennel club consists of a sum of STEM to
be distributed to ths winners of first places,
S100 worth of medals, and cups valued at
more than IX. Besides the more valuable
prizes there ar the ribbon prizes, which
bring a dog honor as champion.
In tha cat department of the ahow there
will be no money prizes nor medals, but
ribbons for each elaas. However, a num
ber of special prises have been offered for
the various classes. Mrs. M. W. Baldwin
of Sioux City. Is., will act as Judge of tha
cat show. Mrs. Baldwin is considered one
of tho best Judges of cats in America and
is ths owner of "Champion Faust" Mrs.
W. A. Challfs, president of ths Otnaha Cat
club, Is managing the cat department of
the Omaha ahow.

The Omaha Dog show Is going to prove

bitions. The sturdy Boston terriers are

Omaha fans and the Omaha-Base Fall
club may well be proud of their new bays
ball park, completed last week. There
Isn't a better planned nor a. better built
grandstand In the Western league nor in
ny other minor league, and though tha
big costly parks of the major leagues will
scat more people It won't be possible to see
base ball In greater comfort In any of
them.
Everything about the park Is brand new
this season, except the club house, and
Pa Rourke has Improvements already
planned for that and will rebuild It next
winter. -The grounds themselves have been
regraded and placed In perfect condition.
a new grandstand, and new bleachers have
been erected and a new and higher fenco
constructed.
The seating capacity Is S.600 people, but
with a little crowding it Is possible to seat
more than S.0OO and there is standing room
for 2.000 people. The plans of both the
grandstand and the bleachers provide for
the quick and able handling of the crowds
that Pa expects out to see his crack squad
perform.
The grandstand is the pride of Rourke s
heart. The main portion will seat 1,000
people, the reserved section 1,300,' and the
boxes KU. The fan does a new stunt to
get to his seat now. He buys his ticket
at the grandstand ticket office and cornea
through the gate. Instead of . coming
through tho stand to the front and climb
ing up to a seat he climbs a stairway at
the back and comes to a runway at the
top. From here he can go to the grand
stand,' the reserved section and the bnncs.
All aisles are three feet or more in width,
the runway at the top Is from ten to four
teen feet wide. Every seat In the grand
stand has a back to It.
New Ticket Oflfcea. -To
get to the bleachers or to enter with
your automobile or buggy you buy your
ticket at a separate ticket office, all tha
offices and all the gates being located at
Fifteenth end Vinton. The auto yard is
lflO feet long by seventy feet wide, and
allows the. occupants of the machines to
see the game plainly.
For. a short time It will be a. skinned
diamond on which the Omaha, players will
play, but sod will be laid tbis spring while
the team Is away. The home plate Is out
farther than formerly, due to the fact
that the grandstand extends farther Into
tho field. From home to the light fence
Is 310 feet, along the foul line and to the
left fence 340 feet. And that fence is
twelve feet high. , so It will take quite
small bump to send the ball over. Ths
player's benches are sunk Into the ground
so as not to Interfere with the spectators'
view, urain pipes have been set in all
around the diamond to provide for tha
water running off quickly after rain.
A new flag -Is now on the way to tho
Smoke house, 12x18 feet In else to b.
placed on the flag pole. Next season Pa
hopes to float a certain small pennant
aiso.
Pa Rourke has decided to allow the con
test for tha name of the new park continue
lor another week, and end next Saturday.
The players of the Omaha team ara to be
the committee to chose tha name of tha
field. nd as they will not all be In
Omaha until this week, the choosing of
the monicker was held until they could
arrive.
