The former premier declared, according to the dispatches, that Spain could not mam, tain- its neutrality, but that the condi tions of the war made its . isolation henceforth iiripotsible. He is quoted as saying that it was moreover essen tial that France and England should not be hostile, towards Spain. The Madrid dispatches predict that Senor Maura's . speech will cause a strong impression throughout the country as his prestige was never so high as at present.

Mil I Amateurs Line Up , With Semi-Pros Nifty double-header that should ap peal strongly to amateur base ball fans in Omaha will be played at Rourke park Sunday af .pr noon. The amateur champions of Omaha will play the amateur champions of Min neapolis in one-half of the double bill, while the crack Brandeis stores semi pro nine will play the All-Nations in the other half of this feature at: traction. , . The deal for this banner bargain bill was consummated yesterday between officers of the Omaha Amateur as sociation and the management of the two semi-pro aggregations. The com bination event, it was decided, would be more advantageous to all parties conerned than staging two rival at tractions. i Desdune's band will be on hand to enliven the matinee with some of the latest syncopations and altogether it is planned to have one eventful day. ' Just who the Omaha amateur champs- who will play Minneapolis will be it as yet undetermined as the Luxus and Armours still have the deciding game to play. This game will be played either Wednesday of Thursday. It is hoped to stage the fray Wednesday, but there is still some doubt as to whether some of the competing athletes ccn be excused from their daily toil that afternoon. i . School Bonds Voted. Nebraska City,. Neb., Sept. 13, (Special Telegram.) School bonds to the amount of $3Q,000 for tha erec tion of a new Fourteen, street district building and $5,000 for repair of the Sixth street building, passed by a vote of S to 1 at a special election to day. 'Call Bond Election. ; Beatrice, Neb: Sept. 12. (Special Telegram.) The city commissioners this evening called a special election for Tuesday. October i 17 to vote bonds in the sum of $25,000 to enlarge and improve the present municipal iigmmg piaui . Central and South high schools will meet in the biggest local inter scholastic foot ball game of the year October 7. Coach Mulligan made known yesterday that he intended to offer this date to South High author ities, and Coach Patten said last evening' that the arrangement Would be O. K. The official announcement will be made some time today. It will be the first time Omaha and South Omaha have met since the memorable battle of 1913, when the Packers threw a cold chill into Cen tral by holding the then powerful eleven to a 3 to 0 score. John Nixon, quarterback for the South team, ob tained pilot position on the. all-state team of that year because of his ex cellent generalship. The two schools have not met since in any . athletic competition except basket ball. They played in the semi-finals of the state basket ball tournament of 1915, Cen tral winning by a score of 8 to 5. The game October 7 will be one of the hardest fought in years, if ad vance dope can be taken as an indi cation. tVoacp ratton found forty, eight men at his doors when he is. sued, a call for foot ball material the first day of school Never in the his tory of the high school hat the in itial turnout tallied more than twenty-five. Last evening suits were handed out to twenty-five and prac tice win begin in earnest this after noon. Coach Mulligan hat not met with his squad yet but has a large part of his last year's men to work on. "a Mass Meeting for Grid Candidates at Commercial High A mass meeting for candidates for the High School of Commerce foot ball team has been called by Coach James Drummond to be held after school today. . Coach Drummond is expecting to have a large squad of material out for places on the eleven, at the first day of practice, which will probably be tomorrow, at the 'Murray field at Thirty-second street and Dewey ave nue. With seven letter men back and plenty of new material in the school, the prospects seem to be satisfying to the coach and Captain Wade Reeves. Paul Stoetzel and Charles Conhiser, last year's halfback 1 and quarterback, respectively, will be out for their old positions, while Paul Carlisle, last year's captain, is being counted on for fullback. Carl Harscn and Robert Blackmore will be on hand for line positions. Reeves will most likely be billed for center and Zeleith Skriver one of the ends. Wil liam Gorman, last year's second string man, looks strong for one of the ends or a halfback. Of the new material that announced their inten tions of trying out for the team, Frank Ross and Perry Shirly look as if they might be of some value on the line.' ' The first game will be with Central High, the last ef this month. Com mercial .will also play Norfolk, South High and Council Bluffs high schools at home, aad Logan and Nebraska City away -from home. 1 Johnny Dundee Given r Decision Over Hammer Kansas City, Sept. 12, Johnny Dundee Was awarded a decision over Ever Hammer tonight at the end of their fifteen-round match. .
