OUTPLAYED AT EVERY POINT. The Omaba Gladiators Defeat the Bluggers From Kaw City. HEALEY'S PUZZLING CURVES, Base Ball FElsewhere—The State Sportsmen's Shoot and Conven- tion--Yesterday's Score— ents of the Turl, The Cowboys Captured, ** When the Omaha team made its sonthern rip a few weeks ago Manager Philbin wrote home that Dooms, who was then pitehing for Leavenworth,was the only man in the souti- ern circult whose delivery was too much for the Omaha gladiators. Dooms is now with the Kansas City club, and occupied the box in that team’s contest with the Omahas at Association park yesterday afternoon, and the manner in which he was slugged would indicate that the kladiators have made a re- markable improvement in their batting. Such 1s the case. They found Dooms for nineteen hits, with a total of twenty-eight bases, and the hitting of the home team was only one featuro of the game. Their work in every tospect was superior to anythini before done by them this season. Healey occupled the box for the Omahas and pitched a remarkably good game, striking out eight men and con- fining the cowboys to twelve hits. His de- livery was speedy and puzzling. He was well supported. Bandle caught the first Inning with his old-time style. In the second inning he met with & painful accident. McKeon was at the bat and reached for one of Healey’s fearful down shoots. le made a foul tip which canght Bandle in the face, the ball foreing its way into the eyehole ot the wmask with fearful force and closing Bandle’s left He was knocked down and was un- His_inj s conslst of a badly bruised eye and several loose teeth. arter was substituted and eaught an excellent game.

It is we!l worth a trdp to the Fair grounds to see Budd and Pedrose shoot. They are both dandies with the gun, and no mistake. The C. E.

To witness the crack shots at the falr grounds grass live birds and smash inant- mate targets, one would imagine no very trenumuuntol skill 1s required. But step 0 thescore and try it, and it will be found that the very retinement of dexterity, quick and unerring vision, the steadlest of nerves and a cool head and stout heart are all neces- sary losrt‘wnt being made the butt of ridi- cule and a laughing stocle The weather has been all that could be de- sired for the shoot, notwithstanding early in the afternoon, thése bright sunshiny days, the light has not been conducive of great scores. Nevertheless they are being made, and all those interested in the gun and fiel sports generally who do not attend are miss- ing an opportunity but seldom offered in a lite time. The management is thorough and every facility for enioying the rare sport is assured to visitors. Budd makes a picture when he nle;.n to the score. His attitude is stntuue«tue and grace- ful, and he shows every point the great sho! that be is. Last of 8t. Louis Races. 81.

JUBILEE FOR ACTORS, Theatrical People Given a Banquet By London's Lord May (Copyright 187 by James Gordon Bennett.] Loxvox, June 1h—[New York Herald Cable—Special to the Ber.|—Lord Mayor Hansen is celebrating his new baronetage and this jubilee year by a succession of feasts, In his official library can be found a copy of the aet ranking stage folk with va- grants and vagabords. In the adjoining banquet hall this afternoon he entertained at luncheon these vagabonds, A large crowd of pit-ites, as well as many customary Euro- pean boxes, gathered to see these vazrants enter the municipal mansion. The first to arrive was Mrs. Kecley, who, forty-five years azo, played at Niblo's Garden. She stepped from her democratic cab little like one elghty-one years old as is George Baneroft when he mounts bis horse. Not long afterwards ar- rived Mrs. Kanny Sterlinz, ten years, younger, who at Victorla’s assession was a dramatic belle in melo-drama at the Adelphi when managed by the father and mother of Edmund Yates. Between the arrival of these veterans eame the youngest aspirant— Mrs. James Brown Patter—radiant in lace and muslin sulted to an 80 degree day: Mrs. John Woods, who declines to be termed a veteran; then Charles Wyndham, who she dropped in 1561 from her New York company “'because there was no making of an actor in the younz man.” Then Colonel Mapleson and ‘Augustus [arris appeared together as amicably as if they were not engaged in metaphorieally cutting each others operatic throats. Colonel Cody came on horsebac! tended by agroom, Soon after him came Mrs, Charles Mathews, best known in New York as Lizzia Weston. But a tull catalogue of the guests who were cheered by the crowds as statesmen are greeted as they arrive for parliament, would exhaust many play bills, past and present. A JUBILEE GREEN ROOM. Inside the mansion house was literally a Jubilee green room. There were hearty groet- ings, conversational buzz, graclous and wel- come cues spoken, an abundance of straw berries, fige, peaches,cherries,apricots, owers of an English June, of wines as old as George I11s jubilee day, and the epigramatic breath over knives and forks can be best imagined by your readers. What took place in a public way was even betterIn interest, Mr. Irvingescorted the lady mayoress, the lord mayor gave his own arm to Mrs, Keeley, Mrs. Wood honored the buf- falo hero, the youthful Toole escorted the still youthtul Mrs. Sterling, and all the man- agers and manageresses paired as smilingly as if pooling thelr box receivts. All vocif- erously drank the queen’s health and silently hoped she would now often box herself. TILE LORD MAYOR'S SPEECIT. ‘The lord mayor, who is a Cambridgeman of repute,spoke a pleasant prologue of welcome: “The luncheou is an acknowledgement of the great debt of gratitude my constituents owe the ladies and gentlemen who had so long interested, laughed and amused them. 1t was over forty years since my theatre- going recollections began. 1 do mot, however, propose going into his- tory. I merely desire to express my great gratification at the opportunity in my official capacity to testify on behalf of the general public the regard felt for those who had done so much to evoke thelr best feeling, The weather, however, did not Justify, and it would be barbarous to keep you unnecessarily long in a hot room.

That gentleman began by remarking: 1 know the responsipility of standing before my fellow actors and nctresses. 1 know what It is by rehearsals and other ex- periences [laughter], and I have to be ex- tremely careful in any remarks 1 may make.” After some aumorous allusions to ancclent frictions between corporations and actors, he remarked that an actor always spoke nicely of it and of lord mayors. He then gave felicitous quotations from Shakes- peare, and added: ‘“Many predecessors in your high oftice, my lord mayor, have been inumortalized by Shakespeare, notably the lord mayor in the play of Richard IIl. I may tell you that the lord mayor in Richard 1II was the first part in which my friend Mr. Toole distingulshed himself, aud it was indeed one of his most distinguished {mpersonations. If he counld ever be induced on any occasion to play the part again for the benefit of any whom may be worthy such an honor, I shall be glad to support him on the occasion in the part of the Duke of (iloucester.”” At this point of laughter Mr., Toole was heard to observe in a semi sotto voce, “ 'Tis a bargain.” After some graceful reference to many bresent, Irving observed: ‘*“The actors of this coun- try, my lord, in soma respects, are the best in the world. [Great applause.] Whether they are the best actors In all respects it wouldn't be becoming in me to say.

What the Mayor Says About the Recent Order. “‘Your honor,” said a reporter of the BEeg, addressing Mayor Broatch, ‘‘there is a great deal of talk on the streets about your order probibiting music and danc- ing in the beer gardens on Sunday. Won’t you let the people know through the BEE precisely what.was meant?"” “‘With pleasure. This is an opportu- nity I have desired. In the first place there was no regular manifesto issued, but instead, in consequence of innnmera- ble complaints that have reached me from_private citizens as well as from members of the city council from difterent wards, with reference to the annoyance they have been subjected to on account of boisterous and disor- derly conduet thay has marked the Sun- day gatherlnfin at the different beer gar- dens, especially those in the south end where they have music, dancing and beer, [ considered it my duty to take some steps toward their abatement, if not suppression. Accordingly I simpl, instructed the chief of police to investi- gate the mutter and order the closing of all such descrived resorts on the Sab- bath. The gardens where they have dancing seem to be the objectionable laces, and if there is fiood toundation or the verbal order given the chief, it shall ~ stand. I am termined that the decency and dig- nity of the city of OUmaha shall be main- tained. I am beset on all sides about this Sunday question. It isa yexed one, and as you know, public opinion is omnipo- tent when ithis avoused. In too many cities public opinion is asleep. Toughs do as they please when honest men be- come indifferent, 1t is for us to decide whether disorder shall take us by the throat, or whether we shall throttle it. We must not forget that the welfare of this city is determined by the people’s sense of what is lawful, innocent and correct. If the people demand order they will have it. Mind, now, I am in sympa- thy with the laboring classes, and believe that they should be provided with places of recreation and amusement whenever they may have the time and opportunity to indul, in it, be that whensoever it may. Butl do not take any stock in disreputable dives, or disor- derly beer gardens or dance halls, no difference who runs them or where they are located. We have plenty of resorts where there is music and refreshments in Omaha whence comes no complaint, and they should, in my opinion, not be mo- lested. In conclusion youmay say in the Bek that there has been no regularly is- sucd order closing the city's Sunday pleasure resorts. The animus of my in- structions was to reach the disorderly places.

The first place called at was Paul Senf's, way out near the corner of Eighteenth “and Vinton streets, and the BEE man was not slow to observe that Paul was going to do the great kick act. He said he kept an orderly place and was going to continue to keep it. He closed last Sunday obedient to the police mandate, and "in consequence he was 100 ount of pocket. Sunday is his only day—through the week business is at a standstill, and if ne is to be deprived of this sabbatical reve- nue he might us well put up his shutters for good. He closed last Sunday, but not disposed to keep up the Sunday elo ing practice unless compelled by the po- lice. Senf really has a very pleasant place, with umbrageous trees, easy chairs, ta- bles and numberless other uppliances of comfort and ease, besides on Sunduy there is some startling music thut gives the nerves very active cxercise, while a delightful eflluvia that tells wondrous tales of becr, renders the place ull that could be expected.

GRAVE, The Modest Monument in a Chester County Cemetery. West Chester Record: A few days ago chancing by Longwood during the course of a drive through East Marlborough and Kennett townships, I tied my horse under one of the fresh green maples on the Emunds surrounding the old meetin, ouse, and sauntering across the road, throu'zh the little iron gateway leadin, into its unpretentious burying ground, with its one hundred or so of humble mounds and tombstones, Icame, ere long, to the resting place of one whose name and fame has been spoken throughout the world, and who, though dead in the flesh is destined to live within the realms ol literature forever. It was within a small enclosure, probably not over ten feet A?nue, surrounded by an iron railing of plain design, but effectual in barring strangers from intrusion within its sa- cred portals. In one corner of 1t stood a tall ovcrz}:'oen troe with outspreading branches that sheltered a goodly portion of the lot, and under it, sunding on a g&ranite base, probably a footin thickness and threc feet square, on a small mound of earth, rose a cylindrical shaped stone less than five fect high and twoand a half feet in diameter, flat on top, and of a light brown or buff cofor. Near it on every side were firowmg shrubbery and evergreens of humble but neglected growth, and struggling through the sward here and there near the base of the stone were lilies of the valley, now fresh in vigorous bloom, with their tiny white blossoms bowing in graceful "clusters toward the earth covering the ashes of one who in life so oft had clung to them. In a line exrending more than half around the neatly moulded eylinder of stone, I read the words: ‘‘He being dead yet speaketh,” and under 1t, about the centre of the cyclinder, on the side facing the grassy rumwny, surrounded by a wreath of aurel wrought by sculptor’s art within the immortal stone, was a medallion of bronze, with a raised profile. It was that of a kindly face, full of character, full of energy and perseverance, but with lines of disappointment here and there, adding to 1ts expression. It was not the rofile of such a man as oneis accus- omed to ueing every day. Under it in letters, too, of bronze was the never dying name— BAYARD TAYLOR: January 11, 1925, December 19, 1878, Turning with reverence from the lrol which thus held me spell bound for a few minutes—for I had not s near the ave since the day that the spot was first allowed with its® sacred {treasure—I moved around the corner of the lot and confrented & marble stone, too, within the railing, and read upon it: FREDEKICK TAYLOR, of the First Pennsvivania (Buck- wail) Rifle Rregiment, who gave bis life for his country at Goettys- burz, July 2, 1563, ° Fell at the hfinl of bis regiment, leading & charge.
