They Badly Use Up Sheriff SBampson of Obadron, Neb. THE BOARD OF EDUCATION, A Full Fledged Row in the Ranks ofthe Omaha Base Ball Olub ‘Which Threatens Dis- integratiou. Desperate Burglars, Sheriff J. L. Sampson, of Chadron, Neb,, lies in his room at the Canfield house, a badly used up mau, and thereby hangs a tale, or a romance, of no incon- siderable interest. Sometime last January the general store of John Jones, at Henery, Wis., was burglarized and $15,000, which had been kept in an old dilapidated safe, was carried off. Suspicion fell upon one Frank Hall, a man of unsavory reeord, who mysteri- ously disappeared from his wonted haunts about this time, and after assiduous work of months by skilled detectives, a sort of aclew was obtained locating him near Chadron, Neb. John Jones and Sheriff Sampson had been quondam friends, and knowing that ampson was sheriff of the county in which Chadron is situate, wrote to him acquainting him with the facts of the burglary, and also sending nim a descrip- tion of the alleged burglar, together with the information that a $1,500 reward was upon his head. ‘T'his was eight weeks ago, and Sheriff Sampson at once commenced a search for the man, and on Sunday last traced Hall to Omaha. He lost no time and came down here Monday, und soon got onto the fact that his man was in the city, but industrious search failed to find him, Later in the day, however, through some agency or other, he learned that a man answermg Hall's description had been seen during the afternoon in the vicinity of the saw mill at Florence, four miles up the river, and yesterday morning he went up there. Inquiry at the mill developed the fact that two men, one of them tallying with Hall’s description, had been seen to enter the brush an hour before a short distance above the mill. Greatly elated over the prospect of shortly overhauling his man, Sheriff Sampson hurried on to the point indica- ted where the two strangers had penetra- ted the woods, and followed in. He had hardly gone one hundred yards until he came right on to ilall, whom he instantly recognized, and his companion, a swmall man, sitting on a log. They both arose, and Hall said: “I know you Sampson, and I want you to understand that you can’t take me unless you take mo dead.” Sampson replied, telling him not to get excited until he knew what he wanted, but just here he received a crushing blow from behind from some kind of a weapon in the hands of the smaller man, which knocked bim headlong and unconscious into the bushes. How long he remained insensible he had no means of ascertaimng, but it could only have been for a briet period, for upon reviving, ho saw the two men pulling across the river in a skift well on to_the opposite shore. A Upon gaining his feet the sheritt' real- ized that he had not only been knocked in the head but bad been subjected to other injuries, as there were terrible pains in his chest and sides, and one leg was so badly oripnled as to hardly sus- tain his weight, He made his way back tothe saw mill as expeditiously as his hurts would permit of, where he gave two of the hauds $20 to follow the fugi- tives across the river in a_boat and murk them down if possible, informing them that they might expect additional com- pensation if theylearned unythnuf, by re- porting to him at the Caniield house, Omaha, As yet, no intelligence has ar- rived from these two men, ‘The whole aftair on its face, it must be acknowledged, has a rather queer look, and the story is of a decided ichthyologi~ cal flovor. But Sheriff Sampson, as a dead square man is vouched for by numers ous ac?uuinlmlcus here i Omaha, and itis only due that his story be accepted. But why an old experienced sherift should follow a couple of desperate burglars like this man Hall and his com- panion unq‘umtionnbly are, into a lonely wood, single handed and uaarmed, save with a pair of handcuffs, is one of those things no fellow can find out. THE OMAHA BALL CLUB. Several Alleged Players Kick Up a Rumpus, Yesterday was salary day for the mem- bers of the Omaha base ball club. 1t also developed the reason why the club has becn so umsuccessful—an interne- cene war. The trouble came to an out and out break while the members were drawing their pay. It will be recollected that O'Leary was fined by Manager Philbin, ostensibly for not playing ball, As a matter of fact the fine was for using obscene language to the manager. Walsh, who was formerly captain of the nine, assessed & fine of $5 against Bader for refusing to _coach in Denver when so ordered. Yesterday O'Leary’s $50 fine was deducted, and so was Bader’s $5. Each expected that the fine would not be enforced. When O’Leary found that it went, he grew abusive and cursed Walsh in the foulest manner. Walsh re- lied after the same kind and Bader aned in with O'Leary. Finally the two atter included Messett and Dwyer, who were standing near, in the general tirade of abuse. Affairs became more mixed when Kreymeyer and others sided in inst Walsh,” Dwyer and Messett. It almost reached the point of a free fight, and showed that there has been ill fecling between the club members for some time. Manager Philbin is reticent, but it is stated on good authority that the club will be entirely reorganized. Reorganigation should have been car- ried out some time ago. The manage- ment of Philbin has been generally good, and the onl{v point upon which he has laid himself open to criticism is in the fact that he has beentoo lement. O'Leary, who is supposed to be the crack pitcher, has cost the club wore games than an other player in the nine. He is ill- natured, and it is dawning upon the pub- lic mind that he is not near| y the player that either Bartson or Healy 1s. Their work is generally good—O'Leary’s is ex- ecrable. Rourke was released nday. He made a good record with Duluth last year, but he has been playing very puur\y. 1t lis work on third has been so poor that he deserved release, thut of Swift on second bas been so rotten that he should have been chased frointhe position with a bat. 1iis due to him to say, howeyer, thut he had no part in the disgraceful rupture yesterday afternoon. In fact, Dwyer has been the only redeem- ing feature of the infield. The outtield has been good. Messett in right and Genins in middle have played ball at all times. Bader has worked excellently and at all times played ball for all there was in it, His phi ing has been marked by briiliancy. rehmeyer done poorly on the whole in his work™ bohind the bal It the result of yesterday's ruction is to cause the releass of the listliss players and a | take an occasil strengthening of | wherein it is sp painfully weak, it will have proved a good thing, Then Man- ager ~ Philbin ahould draw the reins tightly and compm) every man to play all when he gogs into the field or abide the consequendfsl Then Omaha may I game-—-leastwise if it be through want of %\Inine in those points doesn’t it will n effort.
