STAGE IS ALL SET
FOR BIGMAT TILT
Both Steelier and Caddock
Eagerly Await Word for
Titular Clash Tonight.
BETTING IS VERY LIGHT
With the stage all set and every
detail arranged, Joe Steelier, the
pride of Nebraska, and Earl Caddock,
the hope of Iowa, stand ready to lock
horns on the mat at the municipal
Auditorium tonight in a joust for the
wrestling supremacy of the world.
Both gladiators are eagerly await
ing the fray. Caddock, an undefeated
contender, obstructs Stecher's clear
path to the title. Joe is anxious to
remove him. For Caddock it is the
opportunity of a lifetime. Fame and
fortune are his if he can defeat the
Dodge phenom.
Caddock promises to mix it the
minute the referee says "go." Speed
is Caddock'a greatest asset. It is upon
his speed that he depends. For that
reason he declares he will tear into
Joe at the start and make a match
of it from gun to gun.
Frank Gotch, former champion and
said by many to be the greatest
wrestler the world ever saw, will be
in Caddock's corner tonrght. Gotch
has been training Caddock in Chi
cago. He expresses firm confidence in
his charge, averring that if Caddock
stays thirty minutes with Steelier he
will win the match.
Iowans Back Caddock.
Iowa mat fans who will arrive in
Omaha by the hundreds today, have
expressed a similar confideice in the
Anita lad. They all expect Caddock to
win. Nebraskans, of Course, lean to
ward Joe.
Boosters from Cass county, of
which Caddock is the hero, will come
to Omaha in a special train of twelve
or fifteen coaches. The train leaves
Stuart, la., at 2 o'clock this afternoon
and arrives in Omaha at 5:45. The
Caddock boosters will march from the
depot uptown, headed by a brass band
of thirty pieces.
That a record-breaking crowd will
see the event is assured. Not a seat
is available today except at specu
lators' prices. Standing room will not
be sold until after 9 o'clock tonight,
at which hour it is presumed all hold
ers of seats will have occupied them.
This is done to prevent persons from
buying standing room and usurping
squatters' rights on choice seats.
It is estimated the house will total
over $15,000 and that half of the peo
ple who will witness the go will be
from out of town.
, Very Little Betting.
Very little betting has been done
on the match. Some of the Iowans are
backing Caddock, but they are mostly
odds-oir bets. Some time bets, forty
minutes, an hour and the like, have
also been recorded. But on the
whole, the betting has been light and
unless plungers get in their work to
day little money is likely to change
hands on the result this evening.
Carl Marfiisi has arranged for sev
eral goed preliminaries. They will all
be run off quickly, so the main event
will start not later than 10 o'clock.
The doors of the Auditorium wllj
be opened at 7 o'clock and the first
preliminary starts at 8. Holders of
tickets are urged to arrive as early as
possible to avoid confusion at the
doors. Gene Melady has issued the
following instructions for holders of
tickets:
Holders of balcony tickets, nortft- side.
Sections A, B, C, D, E, P and G, will enter
at North entrance of Auditorium only.
Holders of balcony tlckots. south side,
Sec: 'one ,H, J, K, I, M. N. O and P will
enter South entrance of Auditorium only.
Ringside! boies. Arena floor and holders
of stage tickets flll enter center doors of
Auditorium only.

When you have a bilious attack
your liver fails to perform its func

food you eat ferments in your stomach
instead of digesting. This inflames

Members of Rambler Team
Open Season With Banquet
In order to commence the season
with harmony leading the parade, the
Rambler base ball team held a pre
season banquet at the Loyal hotel.
Approximately thirty attended, which
included the base ball team, members
of the Rambler Social club and a few
invited guests.
For two consecutive seasons the
Ramblers won the flag of the Na
tional league, and at the expiration
of each season, made a strong bid
for the city championship. The gen
eral sentiment, of the players is that
they will have a rocky road to travel,
but as they have fortified the weak
departments, they will give the oppo
sition bitter competition.
The principal amusement outside of
the May day sparkles that were in
terminglel with the fodder, was the
music and songs by Hazel Reed,
Hilda Rice and Irma Podalek.
Speeches were made by Frank Quig
ley, Jake Isaacson, Otto Fecha and
members o fthe club.
David Holland and Emil Swanson,
formerly . connected with the Ramb
lers, recently left here for Moline, III.

Wireless Plant on
Roof of Fashionable
NewYork City Home
New York, April 8 United States
secret service agents have discovered,
it was learned tonight, that until a
few weeks ago a wireless receiving
plant of the most expensive type was
operatel on the roof of the Fifth ave
nue home of Mrs. Hugo Reisinger,
daughter of the late Adolph Busch,
millionaire brewer of St. Louis. Mrs.
Reisinger, it was said, insisted that
she had caused the apparatus to be
removed the moment she learned of
its- existence.
While the secret service agents
maintained strict silence, it was un
derstood they had information that a
German who had been employed as
butler in the Reisinger home con
structed and operated the plant.
Camp of Company B "Some
Place;" According to Rumor
Visitors to the temporary guard sta
tion of Company B of the National
Guard, "somewhere in America," and
not far from Omaha, are telling won
drous tales concerning it. According
Ko these, the camp has all the com
forts ot home, and then some.
The company became famous on the
border for its mess, which visitors
now describe as "regular Waldorf
Astoria chuck." In addition, the com
pany recently acquired shower baths
and a special tent for reading and
writing purposes.
But the climax was reached Satur
day, it is said, when a sure-enough
barber shop and an honest-to-good-ncss
tailor shop were installed at the
company camp.
Hustling by the officers also secured
a weekly block of eight tickets to the
Gayety from Manager Johnson. These
will be awarded each week to the
squad making the best camp record.
The Nebraska Clothing company do
nated a lot of playing cards. The bar
ber chair was given the company by
A. L, Undeland.

KAWS MAKE TRIP TO
OMAHA FOR NOTHING
faster Combat Is Called Off
Because Diamond Holds
Water Too Well.
MILWAUKEE COMES TODAY
By equipping the athletes with
some of Henry Ford's one-man sub
marines, the Rourkes and Kansas
City club might have tangled in their
combat scheduled for Easter after
noon, but Henry will only give his
subs to the government, o the fray
had to be called off. Even the gentle
Easter sun failed to. make an impres
sion on the diamond at Rourke park
and the lot was almost as we, as it
was Saturday.
Thus the Kansas Cityans had their
400-mile trip all for nothing.
Today Milwaukee will clash with
Pa's hopefuls on the local lot. It is
believed the diamond will be in shape
this afternoon. The Milwaukee club
looks pretty strong this year. Anfong
its stars are Beall, former Denverite,
who was one of the best outfielders
the Western ever saw, and George
Anderson, the outfielder Pa Rourke
obtained from Cincinnati last year,
but who broke his leg and could not
report. Anderson's leg mended dur
ing the season and Cincy sent him to
Milwaukee, where he has been prov
ing something of a sensation.
Otto Merz and Murphy Currie, who
were carded to hurl against the Kaws
yesterday, will probably throw up the
slants for the Milwaukee lads to
swing on. The teams will line up as
follows:

Omaha College
Boys Would Enlist
For War Service
Mr. and Mrs. Howard Loonrrs have
received a telegram from their, son,
Arthur, a junior at Cornell univer
sity, stating that he has enlisted in
the Coast Guard service.
He is now at Newport, in training
to join the "mosquito fleet," which
will patrol the Atlantic coast from
Chatham to New London. The col
lege authorities granted him full
credit for his present year of work
there.
Jabin Caldwell, son of Mrs. -Victor
B. Caldwell of this city, is another
Omaha collegian to volunteer for war
service. He raised a corps of twenty
five naval reserves among his class
mates at Yale, and they will train
for service on a submarine.
Half a dozen other Omaha college
youths are now on leave visiting their
parents here, for the purpose of se
curing consent from the latter, so
that they may join military organiza
tions for war service. These include
Fritz Bucholz, Mac fialdrige, John
Hanighen and Casper Offutt.
Robs Boy Who Jingles Money
And Chases Him to City Jail
Arthur Brown 114 South. Tenth
street, colored, was walking up Dotig.-f

twelve silver dollars in his pocket,
his week's wages. A highwayman
with a gun stopped Arthur and took
the jingling coins away. Arthur
started to holler. Whereupon the
robber chased Brown almost to the
doorsteps of the jail.
Buzzings of Belligerency Will
Sound Around Auditorium Tonight
Belligerent buzzings by .bellicose !
Done-crushers promise to pervade the
Auditorium tonight when Joe Stecher
and Earl Caddock tangle in their
wrestling tilt for the championship of
the world.
Chris Jordan, ex-middleweight
champion, who is now making Omaha
his headquarters, is hot on the trail
of Ben Rucben, the Chicago grappler,
wno nas entered a claim to the title
and will wrestle in one of the pre
liminaries tonight.
Rueben recently threw ' Johnny
Meyers in Chicago in a bout adver
tised as for the middleweight title.
Jordan once held that honor and
wants another crack at it.
"I'm confident I can throw Rue
ben," declared Jordan, "and I'll wres
tle him any place. His own home,
Chicago, suits me. If he's the mid
dleweight champion, let him defend
his title against me.
Following which declaration of war
Jordan made a sweeping offer to wres
Eats 12 Raw Eggs :
in 17 Minutes
Because he stowed away forty
two raw eggs in seventeen minutes
flat, eating them out of the shell,
John Redan, Thirty-first and Amea
avenue, claims to be the champion
raw egg eater in the city. -
Over a score of young men were
matched in the annual Easter egg
eating contest given by the Boys'
club of the Hirst Memorial church
last evening. Redan waa runner
up last year, when Carl D. Evans,
3624 Grand avenue, got away with
forty-four raw eggs. The egga

Latest Thrillers
Are Embodied in
Lakeview Resort
Work on Lakeview, Omaha's new
est addition to the ranks of amuse
ments parks, is being rushed with a
view of opening next month. The
site of the new park is the plot of
ground formerly occupied by the
Young Men's Christian association
for a summer camp and bungalow vil
lage. This land was purchased last
fall by Munchoff Bros., who former'y
operated Krug park, from the East
Omaha Land company.
The chief feature now under con
struction is the large jack rabbit,
under-friction coaster, the newest
thing of its kind in the country. This
coaster is said to be a great deal more
exciting and thrilling than the old
style, so well known by the lovers of
this park amusement. The jack lab
bit is quit unlike other coasters, due
to the fact that cars are run iu trains,
with three cars to the train.
Other buildings now in the course
of construction include the new dance
pavilion, the skating pavilion, the new
bath house, with its individual locker
system, and the Old Mill, which will
house a lot of twentieth century sur
prises. At the rate the construction work
is being pushed, Lakeview should be
in ample readiness to open in about
sixty days. ) W. and H. F. Mun
choff will be the active managers.
"The Colonel's New Boots"
Furnishes Guard Comedy
"The Colonel New Boots, or a
Near Court Martial," would be a good
subject for a little skit that might be
writtenabout an incident, which fur
nished much comedy among Rational
Guard officers Saturday.
Colonel W. E. Baehr, anticipating
active war service, telephoned his
order for a new pair of boots to a
local shoe store. Captain C. W.
Hamilton, jr., anticipating the same,
happened to go to the fame store to
buy a pair of the same kind of boots.
One clerk had set aside the boots
for the colonel. Another clerk, wait
ing upon the captain, found the boots
reserved for the colonel fitted the
captain to a T, and he made the sale
to Hamilton, neither knowing that the
boots had been reserved for Baehr.
When the colonel discovered the
situation, upon calling at the shop to
get his boots, much suave explanation
and earnest persuasion was necessary
all around, before Captain Hamilton
and the shoe store got set right in the
colonel's estimation.
The upshot of the matter was that
a special order was wired, to provide
Colonel Baehr with the necessary
kicks, and then peace reigned again
in guard circles. 1
Incidentally, it might be said that all
officers of the guard here are outfit
ting themselves for an anticipated
period of active-, service. Colonel
Baehr is even thinking of disposing of
his suburban home property, as it will
be too large for his wife to use and
care for, while he is away on war
service.
tle any middleweight extant. "I don't
bar anybody," he said. "I'll wrestle
any middleweight in the world."
Marin Plestina, Omaha's champion
heavyweight, is expected to be on
hand to challenge the winner of the
Stecher-Caddock clash. Marin has
been eager to meet either one of these
wrestlers for some time and the be,
lief is that he will submit a challenge
to the winner.of tonight's bout.
Jim Londos, the Greek light heavy,
is expected to say harsh words about
several persons. John Fesek is likely
to be the target for some scathing re
marks. Jim wanted to wrestle Pesek
in a preliminary tonight. It is also
said Londos will seek hostilities with
Caddock. Londos and Caddock are
of about a weight, Londos being a
little lighter than the Iowan.
Several other wrestlers promise to
appear on the scene today, with the
result that a lot of warlike talk will
be heard about the Auditorium to
night i
