TIP O'NEILL STILL

Western League Prexie Declare! No
Yelps Are Heard Ecanating
from This Circuit.
SEES .BEIGHT FUTTOE AHEAD
Saya Wext Year Will Be Both
Profitable, Financially and that
Federals Will Hit No Effect
with Their Raiding.
Tip O'Neill, the genial optimist and
president of the Western league, has
come forth with an Interview In which
he declare the Western league ia on a J
sound, solid basis, fears not the terrible I
Federals, was a swell financial Invest-1
ment last year and will be again this
year.
"Toil hare heard the blasts from the
American association and from the In
ternational league," says Fighting Tip,
"about the injuries Inflicted by the eFd
ral league last season? Well, you
haven't heard the Western league emit
ting a yelp, have you? I should say not,"
he added, "and let me say, for one, that
we finished the season In good shape.
EJvery club, with possibly two excep
tions, made money, and we will con
tinue to do so."
Hope for Patronage.
It is to be hoped that O'Neill's pleas
ant prophecies may bear out when the
1915 season rolls around. It is to be hoped

that a good class A article of ball Is
played and that the fans patronise the
games. And In view of the fact that
flocks of pessimistically inclined gen
tlemen around the circuit have already
begun to froth at the mouth with vocif
erous declarations that the Western is
doomed, thstt the pre"cn eight cities
must be changed and that the league Is
likely to go broke before July 4, Just like
tho Feds last year, O'Neill's optimism
comes like a ray of sunshine on a dismal
and rainy day. ,
If O'Neill's optlmInt la true, and It
probably is, as Tip seldom says anything
for publication which he doesn't mean,
the magnates of the circuit should become
Imbued with that spirit and also the fans.
There is no reason why the ltli season
In the Western shouldn't be a good one
under the new conditions, which will be
a wonderful help to such cities as
Wichita, Topeka and Lincoln.
Johnson to Senators.
O'Neill has ulso expressed himself on
the matter of the famous Norwegian ski
Jumper, Walterl "Johnson. Bays Tip, "I
think the Washington club haa Johnson
bound tighter than the head of a drum.
He will either pitch for Griffith or else
he will not be in base ball next year.
The Feds haven't a chance to gethlm."

Dodd's Ice Sharps
G. 8. Dodd's rink 'of curlers took Bob
Gait's quintet of Ice sharps to a trimming
yesterday afternoon at Miller park, ?0 to
8. Dodd's men put up a neat exhibition
of the ice game, working hard and fast
all the time and . making good use ot
team work In scoring their points.
Christmas afternoon John McTaggert's
team Just as decisively defeated W. J.
Hlslop's squad, 19 to 9. A large crowd
was out to witness the Christmas battle

most." 'While a game unfamiliar' to many,
the curling game Is very popular and is
rapidly becoming more so in Omaha.
A big fray between Dodd's team and
Gait's men Is scheduled for New Tear's
day, providing the Ice la In condition.
A stiver loving cup will be given the

Because of the cool weather and the
large amount of snowfall the Omaha and
District Soccer league haa decided to call
things off for tho season. Three more
scheduled games remained to be played,
but their results would have made little
difference for the lea run rhamnlnnahln
The Omaha City eleven had the champlon-
snip cincnea several weeks ago, ,
Throughout the season tho Omaha City
team had things its own way. Only
one defeat and that when a number of
their regular players failed to show up
marred their record. Tho remainder of
the teams were more evenly matched as
shown by their standings. A number
of their contests resulted In draws while
nearly all their games ended with close
scores.
Interest In British Game.
Considerable Interest was shown In tha
sport this season. Even though It waa a
foregone conclusion as to who would win
the cup, large crowds were always on
hand. It was a common nocurranrvt n
aee from l.oou to 1.500 spectators at a
game. All the contests were staged at
Miller and Elmwood parks where grounds
were especially marked out for the teams.
The winning ot the championship this
season marks the second time In aa many
years that, the Omaha City Tleven has
held the large silver trophy offered by T.
It. Combs. . ,
With tho soccer season at sn end many
of tho soccer players have started play
ing the popular Scotch sport known as
"Curling," on the pond' at Miller park.
A league la to be formed la tha near
future.

With Farrell to
Talk Over Yanks
NEW TORK. Dec. ST.-For tha first
time since negotiations started for tha
sale of the New Tork Americana, Colonel
Jacob Ruppert and Captain T. L Huston
had a conference today with Frank Far
rell, the president and part owner of the

of the American league, had conducted
all negotiations for the New York club.
Huston said after the conference that
a great deal ef progress was made and
that Farrell had submitted some state
ments. These, It Is said, consisted of a
list of tha club's liabilities and assets,) as
well as a list showing the gate receipts
for games, both at home and abroad
during the last four years.
The three negotiators decided to meet
Monday morning, when Ruppert and
Huston, It is said, will either take over
tha club or decide to drop the negotiations.
NEW COACH IN VIEW
FOR CREIGHTON TEAM
Harry Miller, for the last four years
bead of the Crelghton foot ball teams,
will probably not be coach at Crelghton
next year, according to a statement made
by a member of the athletic board Sat
urday. Miller left for his home In Defi
ance, O., to spend the holidays, without
entering an application for the job next
year.
Tommy Milla, for the last few years
coach of Omaha High school, haa been
offered the job by the Crelghton ath
letic board. At first Mills understood
that tha position only called for the work
of coaching a foot ball team alone, but
tha board haa decided that whoever takea
tha Job will be employed all year. It la
not yet known whether Mills will accept
these terms, and he la considering the
matter at Belolt, Wis., where ha Is spend
ing the holidays.
Miller la popular with the Crelghton
students, and at the recent foot ball
banquet tha team unanimously expressed
a desire that he remain.
Should Mills refute, the Crelghton
board haa Mark Hyland ot Iowa under
consideration for the job.

The most acute . sufferers are ' the

Sheriff McShane eald yesterday that ha
waa going to cut his force down by two

rroepects for deputy sheriffs In South
Omaha, the sheriff laughed and said he
"didn't know." Those who are close say
that South Omaha will not be represented
in the sheriffs force this term.
In city politic the. wise ones are cant
