Joe's Place in the Western Leaguo—Denver Downs Wichita Badly — Other Sporting Matters. Sunday’s Game. Healy’s arm went off the hinges in the ®lghth Inning, and home talent lost & game which seemed already safe in hand. For all that, however, it was a great game, IThe day was fine, and to say it serene, save when an occasicnal stalwart breezefrom some- where in the cloudless sky stirred swirls ot fust in the field and drifted high flies from their prescribed courses, The attendance filled the grand stand and bleaching boards and strung in a dense hedgerow along the Rences. Although there was little betting Bpirit, the crowd came prepared for a good game, and the interest was pitched to a high Btrain. Owing to the fact that the visitors do Bheir slugging mostly leit handed MBader was shifted to the post pf honor in the right field and Krehmeyer Wwas given a vacation In left. This little act pf foresight looks baa through the hindsight pinee it proved to be one of the strongest ele- ments of disaster in the play. Bandle, who was to substitute Fusselbach, hurt him selt in ractice Just before the gawe, and the regu- ar third baseman, although baif sick, went v Bo his station, Healy and Jantzen filled the voints for Dmaba, while the visitors presented Doums n ‘and Kenyon, . Patriotic pride centers in the first two In- nings, when all the home work was done. Unpire Rock well gave the word at 4 o'clock Bharp and the visitors spread out over the ‘mld 10 nm¥ Walsh’s expected houe run. ‘The M jttle man from short surprised his friends by Y 1king out.

Macullar’s single to center ied Johnson and the visitors’ cnfimln nm‘g- bold and successtul dash for home on Werden’s long hit to left. Sneed popped tip'to Walsh and Ardner flew out to left, fi:film{ the jnning with a tie. Meanwhile a; = B4TEEE y had been doing some coachin 'his worthy young mouth organ has evi- th ently been taking lessons In lunacy from ’ o erazy captain of the Browns. He took a nd as near first base as the white-wash o ne would let him and proceeded to such re- arks as: “Play off, Mac, steady there, ¥ ho—up! yah, yah, that’s right and no, look of ut! who—up{ steady there, now, who— ki p.” The crowd Ilauched at frst nd then gave it back to him with, “‘Gee-haw, r: uck! Getalong Jinny!” Holllday went nevertheless, undiswayed, and was a for guying the rest of the game. L Omaha’s glory flashed its proudest in the d, and what was believed to be a safe jead was put on the score card. Healy with is old smile flew out to second, but as alsh substituted him at the plate the- visit- & fielders backed off to pull down a home un. A single was all that came of it but cssitt came to time with a hit for two ishions, on which Walsh scored and re- ived an ovation. Another loud whoop t ran in on Fus- single. But ‘when )MIO{ Dwyer lifted the sphere over the 'wentioth street fence for a home run, the entry In the grand stand and the unmuzzled lums on the housetops in the neighbor- 00d sent up a yell that fgghtened all the orses 1n the track stables a mile away. It nded, however, with these four runs, as nder and Krehmeyer went out in suecession i om short to first. ¢ ‘The Kansas “Red legs”—who, by the way, E white legs—fell off the perch in one two ¢ ree order during the second and third, l‘ml|r boys” doing the same in the latter 1 nning. i ‘Tha fourth was productive of one run for iy Elm visitors, Captain Macullar took a no- epegzegEd ion, probably at Holliday’s wild suegestion, hat & “‘cold”” ball had been run in on him for hoo-doo and while the slim and swarthy enyon was at bat, he stopped the game to hange balls. 1t was the pitcher with the pminous name of Dooms who made the run on_*“Mouthy” Holliday's long hit to center, Walsh's witd throw to first, and Genins' uff of Sneed’s lon1 fly let Werden score in e fifth, while nothing was done for home. 0 the sixth, Omaha earned a run of which she was robbed by the umpire. Healy made 4 hholu“(ul slide ‘under Kenyon’s hand on 1 essitt's bunt along the runs but was ruled out. Meanwhile Messitt, who took up a mad ‘eareer, was caught within twelve feet of sec- id_and was declared safe. The nmpire led to soe the plays and rendered a com- mise judgment like the jury’s verdict in @ trial. The crowd groaned dis- her slde disturbed the score until the hth. Up to this inning the tally stood 05 In favor of home, sweet home, and the i was asure thing against the visitors, L was here that Healy’s arm failed; it was that the “Jayhawkers” got into their wing clothes: it was here that *‘our cake :udouxhad."

DeNvVER, Col., August 7.—[Special Tele- gram to the Bee,|—The Witchita’s con- cluding game with Denver to-day was the poorest of the series. Thelr errors in both the in and out field were many and costly; their batting was poor and ineffective. Den- ver played a somewhat better game than they have been in the habit of playing since their re irn from the east. The work of the bat- teries of both clubs was nothing brilliant.

The Berlin Statistische Korrespondenz by way of celcbrating the emperor of Germany's nineticth birthday, has re- cently published a list of all the known persons in the Prussian kingdom who are older than the sovereign. t the taking of the census of December 1, 1835, there was one man of 120 years, another of 118 years; a woman of 117, another of 115; two women of 118, two men and one woman of 111; five women of 110, one man and four women of 109, three men and two women of 108, two men and ten women of 107; thirteen men and seven women of 106, and quite a large number who had attained to their 105th year. The total number of persons who gave their age at over 100 was 160. The province Silesia appears to exception- aily favorable to longevity. Out of the 1,073 male porsons between their ninetieth and ninety-fifth year in all the Prussian provinces one ‘in five is a Silesian, and out of the 306 men hetween ninety-i{ve and 100 years old fifty-one are natives of Silesia. Out of the 2,768 Prussian women between the ages of ninety and ninety-five, 871 are Silesians. Thera are ninoty-nine women in Silesia between ninety-five and 100 years old, and thirty Silesian women who have exceeded their 100th year, ‘The centenarians are thickest in the district of Oppeln, They are also numerous in the provinces of Posen and East Prussia; but the western dominions of the king of Prussia, and particularly the Rhineland and the man- ufuctu Iif districts of Eberfeld, Crefeld and the Dutch frontier, are not so favor- able to extraordinary length of life Hood'’s Sarsaparilla Combines, in & manner peculiar to itself, the Dest blood-purifyiug and strengthening reme- dies of the vegetablo kingdom.

Captain Abram W, Pierce, an old resi- dont of the Hawaifan Islands, who is vis- iting in this city, says the New Bedford Mercury, expresses unbounded pleasure at the result of the revolution which has deposed the old and corrupt ministry and placed in power men animated by a pat- riotic desire to serve the country. He does not express a very high opinion of Kalakaua, but says he will do as well as anyone for a figurehead. In the captain’s language,the king will henceforth “‘reign, but not rule.”” “*All the trouble,” said captain Pierce, ‘*has come from that scamp (¥ibson, the prime minister under the old regime."” Gibson is a native of South Carolina. He has had a checkered career in many lands, among his earlier experiences be- ing a two years' imprisonment by the Dateh for selling arms or inciting rebel- lion in Java, When freed from prison he returned to the United States and in- duced the government to make ademand on the Dutch for damages. But after an investigation of the case it w Then he drifted to the Hawa as an agent of the Mormons, when it was thought thoy might be forced to leave Utah. He was intrusted with funds to buy lands for them, and did make a pur- chase on theisland of Sanai, but had" the deeds made out in his own name, and when the saints wanted their property he had forgotten all about them. He still holds the lands. Later he establish a newspaper in the Hawalian langu: professing the warmest love for “brown-skinned brethren,” und won his way into their regard so effectually that when ha became a candidate for the leg- islature he ran far ahead of his ticket. ed a cry of “Hawair for the Hawaiians,” and making himself solid with the king, was finally eclovated by him to the head of the mimstry. AN AMBITIOUS SCHE) One of his schemes was to make Kala- kaua emperor of the Pacific ocean. He versuaded Kalakaua that it would be a great thing to annex all the s within reach, or, as he put it, ‘‘place them under the tutelage of Hawaii. Kalakaua was pleased with the notion, and a “navy” was fitted up. The navy consists of one vessel, placed under the command of an English lieutenant, who had been dismissed in disgrace from the British navy, but who was dubbed “‘ad- miral.” The crew was a rotten lot of ragmuffing. Cadets were improvised from reform school boys. Before the vessel got out of thg harbor there was a grand_drunk, resulting in the ignomin- ious dismissal from the seryice of several of his majesty’s ofticers. At last accounts this, pracious crew had one to annex to the Hawaiian dominions They are 2,000 nd nobody knows Another royal absurdity w: There kaua,” the “‘Order oft Oceanica’ and the “Order of Kapiolani,” with perhaps Attached to,them is all the sol- For while Kalakaua graciously bestowed these orders on thosé who have earned the royal favor,it cost the recipient about $100 for the various certificates which go with them. transactions than these—such as an at- tempt to divert to the crown certain pub- ‘There wcre even smokier lic lands, the revenues of which should be applied to public use, the squander- ing or misappropriation of money raised for internal improyoments, and the af faire of the opium license bribcr{.

Captain Pierce said the revolution had been‘talked of in & quiet way among men who could be trusted for some time pre- vious to his leaving home. that it would be necessary to use more It was feared force than proved to be nceded. The king was apparently unecasy and sus- picious, and he had "arranged the ap- proaches to his palace so that the streets could be swept with Gatling guns. The “army,” which a few years ago consisted of sixty officers and nine men, had beoen in but this force was not much feared, consisted largely of natives, who were not well drilled and not par- ticularly ferocious. Still the revolution- ists had prepared themselves to do some tighting, They were well supplied with arms and ammunition, and probably it was the knowledge that they meant busi- ness that caused the king to cave so easily. A WASTE OF MONEY, In speaking of the pay of Kalakaua, Captam Pierce s that with his salary and the income from the crown lands and some other revenues his income 1s Iarger than that of the president of the United States, Kapiolani is also allowed $16,000 a vear from the public treusury and some other membeis of the royul family receive liberal sums. As there are only 80,000 in the king's do- minions, this'is a woeful waste of money. It would be easy to find 10,000 smarc Yankees who would run the whole busi- ness for $2,500 a_year, with a boy to swoep out the oftice and go errands. The king appears to be “‘on the make" wherever and whenever it is possible, and it is hinted that some of the subor- dinate oflicials have had to divide their mcomes with him. But the people are disposed to attribute many of these things to the evil influence of Gibson, and are content that the king shall reign under the new consfitution and with a new legislature, both of which will effect- ually ue his hands. 1 The American residénts of the Hawa- iian islands fayor annexation to the United Sta They believe this would be advantageous to this country.

The Omaha Victim of the Manawa Disaster Interred—Shooting Burglars—Local Mis- cellany. A Murderons Assault. Hascall's park, also known asSperrel's park, was the scene of a murderous stabbing affaic yesterday afternoon, which promises to end in the death of Charles FElmer Redtield, a bright and inoflensive deaf mute, whose parents live at 1316 South Seventeenth street. Charley was at the park in the afternoon in company with Ed Lacy (who resides on the corner of Leavenworth and Sixteenth), and one or two other friends. While the boys were scuflling in a good natured man- ner, three Germans happened to pass, one of whom had his hat accidentally knocked from his hand by the boys in sport, when the German in towering rage turned and struck young Redfield on the back ot the head. Redfield turned, and n the pantomine language of the deaf and and dumb began to epostulate with his assailant. The German not un- anding that Redfield was deaf, and ently thinking he was making sport of him, hit young Redfield again. This angered the mute and he drew back his fist . to retaliate, but quick as a flash one of the other Germans whipped out n murderous looking dirk over a foot long and plunged it into Redfield’s back, He dropped on his face and the blood spurted copiously from the wonnd. See- ing the mischicf they had done the Ger- mans took to their heels. Redticld’s com- panions were all mere boys, and instead of sending for a physician and convey- ance to take Redfield home, they in their* fright determined to carry him to a physician. The nearest physician was fully a mie away, and to his office they half dragged, half carried the wounded youth. Redfield’s parents are well-to-do people, but Charley was in his rough working clothes and the doctor noticing that the patient was shabbiiy dressed refused to attend to him. The expostulations of the boys and their assurances that the bill should be paid were met with a deaf car. At least this Is the story that the boys indignantly relate. The young fellows decided next to take him bome, but found themselves too exhausted to proceed further with him. Happily at this juncture Seth Grower (a Bre compositor) and Bud Har- ker appeared on the scene and lent their fresh energies to the aid of the boys and young Redfield was taken to his home Clean house at once with dry. shoulders and do it without a murmur?

He vrobed the wound and found it was under the left scapula, and extended four inches into the lung. The patient was weak to exhaustion, having bled copiously both internally as well as externally. The wound is a dan- gerous one, but Charlie's robust constitu- tion 18 the single hair of hope by which his life hangs, The slightest exciterent or exertion will produce a fatal hemorrhage.
