The address was delivered at Br

tended by 6,000 Mauiiatas. The former
premier declared, according to the
dispatches, that Spain could not mam,
tain- its neutrality, but that the condi

henceforth iiripotsible. He is quoted
as saying that it was moreover essen

not be hostile, towards Spain.

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
