The Omabas and St. Pauls played their last game of the present series yesterday afternoon before an audience of probably 500 people. The day was delightful and the game much enjoyed by the enthusiastic as- semblage, especially because the home team won. In the opening inning Burns started the fun by flying out to Murphy, Sowders made a hit to left, but was left, Annis retiring from Anderson to Morrissey aud O'Connell from Pickett to Morrissey. For the visitors Shafer and Murphy re- tired on long flies to Sowders and Burns, Carroll made a hit to left, but that is all the good it did him for Barle sent a sky scraper 1o Burns. In the second Miller reached firstona ‘beautiful bunt. but_was extinguished trying to stonl second. Doran made a hit but Lovett lew out to Murphy. ¥or the ice packers Riley struck out, Mor- rissey made a hit but was doubled up with Pickett, Widson and Shannon accomplishing the feat. In the third, Wilson made first on a fumble of his ground hit by Reilly; second and third on a passed pall, while Burns was given a life by an error of Anderson. Sowders then flew out, to Earle, Burns went to second on a passed ball, and Annis took first on a missed third strike, and second on another passed ball. O’Connell was given his base on called balls and all three bags were occupied. The St. Paul’s, however, were equal to the emer- eney. Miller struck out and Shannon -sat lown on his hit to short, who threw him out at first. The St. Pauls were again whitewashed, and in fact again and again until the game was ended. But worse than this, only a single member of the red hose aggregation ever got a chance to put foot on third. Up to the sixth the Omahas failed to add to their score, but in that inning they spread it on thick. After Wilson had gone out to Morrisscy, on a single by O'Connell, @ base on balls py Miller, a hit by Shannon, @ two-bagger by Doran, another base on balls, and out, they piled up four runs and settlod the game. T the last inning Annis managed to make the circuit on a brace of errors and O'Con- nell’s beautiful drive to left field.

The apprehension of a_disposal of the club m casc of the success of the application to re strain is widespread and is exciting much anxiety among the many adwmirers of the great and noble sport. The one sentiment expressed 1s that it would be unfortunate if the direc- tors are compelled to succumb now and throw up tho sponge after just having succeeded in getting together such an excellent team. A winning team is o guarantee of live, active, prosperous, enterprising city, and the emoluments that are derived through this channel alone by means of the extensiveadyer. ising, are so well recognized that many cit overnments throughout the country are ircetly interested in their ball teams. Again it is the most healthful, purest and cnnobl- ing of all athletic sports, upheld and advocated by such masterly minds as tho late Henry Ward Beecher, by De Witt Talmage, William M. Evarts, the late Roscoe Conkling and Beores and scores of the most eminent men of the times. Omaha will mako a mistake if she nllows her ball team of 1858 to go. 400 1-6 0000 0-0 Des Moines 4, Minneapolis 0, Drs Moixes, Ia., May 4.—[Special Tele- gram to the Brr.]—About one thousand per- sons witnessed the second game between the Des Moines and Minneapolis teams to-day. The weather was cool, the ground in+good condition, and an excellent game was played Dy both teams. It was largely a pitcher's contest, though the home team did good work with thoe willow. In the fourth inning, Quinn made a safe lut, went to second on a fo hit by Shafer, and both crossed the plate on Halliday's tong hit over the left garden fence, making a home run for himself. This was Smith's first appearance before u Des oines audience, and he acquitted himself ith great credit both as a twirler and in fielding his position.

They Give a Tamo Exhibition at the People's. “The boxing exhibition given by Pat Killen, of St. Paul, and Barney Smith, of Minneapo: lis, at the Peopl®s theater last’ evening, was tame and devoid of interest. This is ac- counted for, however, by the presence of a brigade of blue-coats who were on haud to sce that there were no breaking of jaws or smashing of noses. Killen gave the immense avdience a sample of his extraordinary kit- tenishness, and made it very evident that he would bavo paralyzed Mr. Smith with one hand tied behind nis back. Colonet Forbe esquired Killen and Anthony Rothery was behind the descendant of the discoverer of Virginia. There wasn't one good blow struck and again it is repeated, the exhibition was totally devoid of interest . S SWEARING VENGEANCE. Rioting and Bloodshed Result From a Negro Lynching. MoxTGoMERY, Ala., May 4.—Since the re- cent lynching in Lowndes county of a negro murderer by a white mob the negroes have been threatening vengeance, and to-day the sheriff with a posse at Sandy Ridge arrested fifteen negroes. On the way back to Haynes- ville, the county seat, the posse encountered mob of armed negroes. A conflict ensued, in which two white men were wounded and several negroes killed.

It concludes as follows: “The evidence certainly tended to-show a scheme or plan entered into before Mrs, Frecmau's death to have the insurance money made payable to the prisoner.” This means that Mrs. Robinson must hang unless the governor and his council commute the sentence to imprisonment. ——— Weather Indications.

WORK OF BUNGLING PHYSICIANS. The Theory of Hereditary Scrofula Controverted By a High Medical Authority, Royalty Failed to Unbend the Professor. Why the Prince is Prejudiced. Nrw York, May 4.—[Special Telogram to the Bre.]—There will appear in this week's fssue of the Medical Record, which has given the subject of the late Emperor William's and the present German em. peror’s illness more than ordinary mention, an account of the Crown Prince William and the causes to which are due bis crippled arm. It will go far toward disabusing tho people of the belicf that Prince William is aflicted with any disease of a scrofulous nature, re- ports to that effect having recently been sent to the English and American papers from Berlin. The authority for the Record’s story is o physician who attended the gym- nasium with Crown Prince William, and Dr. Shrady says his information is entirely trustworthy. The story is as follows: Tho present difficulty of the Crown Prince William dates from his birth, when a frac- ture of the left arm occurred, which resulted m that member being about two nches shorter than the other and has given rise to the stories of his being aflicted _ with scrof- ula. Prior to the birth of her child, Empross Victoria, then the crown princess, was seriously ill and her mother, Queen Victoria, dispatched from London ' two English obstetricians to attend ‘her, These physicians found themselves unable to cope with the difficulty that presented itself, and then arrived the necessity for a consultation. A messenger was dispatched for Prof. Mar- tin, the clder, since dead, who, at the time, was high in' the circles of the court, and president of one of the universities. Piqued at the introductiou of the Englishmen in the case, to the exclusion of the fatherland, the eminent scientist returned this answer: = “If 1 was not able to attend to the crown prin- cess in the first place I am not able to do it now."” Informed of this brusque reply of Prof. Martin, Emperor William, at that time king of Prussia, issued an imperial edict ordering the obdurate physician to attend the crown princess. Such a summons had to be obeyed. Prof. Martin went to the palace. He was conducted into the presence of the crown princess, where were the two English ob- stetricians. Saluting the crown princess, who was in the apartent, the German phy- sician silently gave his attention to the royal mother, overcoming the difficulty that had puzzled the London doctors, placed the new-born infant in the arms of a nurae, bowed stiflly to the two professional gentlemen from England, and retired from the apartment without utteringa word. Here was the spectacle of a proud scientific man, who would not unbend for royalty. He had performed his duty in a taciturn manner, it is true, but that was all. Prof. Martin was dis- missed from the court. When the little prince was three or four years old, it was discovered that his left arm was fractured a short distance from the shoulder. Who broke it? Did the accident occur through the ageucy of Prof. Martin, or while the babe was in tho care of the Kng- lish attendants! That question has never on answered, and probably never will be. he doctor who broke the arm felt the snap of the infantile bone. From the nature of things he would keep the news to himseif, fearing to have it known that to him b longed the blame. The fracture of a newly- born infant's arm is not an unusual occurrence, and it is not regarded in the medical profession as serious or attended by any great danger. In this case, however, when the bones knit the left arm of the prince was shorter than the right, and 1t has ever since so remained. It has been announced at different times that Prince Willium’s eyes were bad. Had this been the case he could never have passed through tho gymnasium. When he graduated the young prince, though bright and possessed” of a thorough education, stood number seventeen in his class. This shows the impartiality of the German professors in_dealing with students of the royal blood. From this story there can be no wonder at the deep rooted prejudice in the prince’s mind against what he naturally cousiders the interference of forcign, and particularly English, doctors in the case of his father. ‘Whenever he glances down at hus shortened left arm there must occur to him the thought that but for certain bungling in his case it might have been as perfect as he is in every other par- ticular. ————— Movements of Schurz.

Foss, Minneapols, prosjdéd at to-d conference of the Methodist K church, The ordersef the day, coutinued from yosterday, Wi the debate on the report of the committee on the eligibility of women as lay delegates to the conference. The debate was opened by Rev. Dr. A. B. Leonard of the Cincinnati copference, who argued in favor of the women's side of the case. He was tollowed by Rov!'Dr. John Miley, presi- dent of Drew theological seminary, of the New York conferefice, and Rev. J. R. Day, of the New York conférence, who spoke against the admission of women a8 dolegates. Tho Rev, Day, in the courseof his debate, said: “If women are admitted just so many men will be displaced. The force of the lay delegation should be weakened. Women have not the necessary experience, If she is admitted she would come in as an added force and not as a weakening force,' jeneral Samuel H. Rurst, dairy and food commissioner of Ohio, the first layman to gain the floor, dofended the right of women to admission.” Ho alluded to his opponents as old fogies.” Ho eriticized the bishop's . Little, of Syracuse university, . He said he was not in favor of the admission of women ut the present time be- se the church at large had not expressed an opinion on the subject. Rev. . B. Neally, of Philadelphia, said he was in favor of su mitting the question to the annual confer- ences, and to this end offered an_amendment to the report of the committee. The amend- mont was seconded and will be voted on at the close of the debate. M. Shaw, alawyer from Des Moinos argued that women are eligible. He urged that women should be seated at the present general conference and the question of eligi- bility submitted to the annual conference. Afterward Dr. Buckley, who had seconded the amendment, got the floor. There were objections on the ground that he had already spoken to the question. He said he had not spoken to the amendment, and was permitted by the chair to speak. Then numberless points of order were raised with the object of shutting Dr. Buckley off. The effort was successful, as before he could get an oppor- tunity to speak the hour for adjournment ar- rived. X RIS S One Thousand Men On Strike. DuLvri, Minn., May 4.—[Speciat Tele- gram to the Ben.]—A serious strike occurred this afternoon, involving considerably over 1,000 laborers and miners, their demand be- ing for higher wages. The majority of the strikers are emploved on the extension of the Duluth & Iron Range rail- way and the balance are employed in the Chandler and other iron min, Full partis ulars have not been received yet, but news of trouble is hourly expected, as the Italian laborers are said to be d esperate. There is no trouble at the minesof the Minnesota conrpany as yet. i . IR THE COUNTY 'CONVENTION. Greene Apparently to Secure the Dis- trict Delegation. The republican county convention of Doug- las meets in tho expdsition hall in this city this afternoon at 2 o’¢lock. It will nominate thirty-seven delegates to the district conven- tion which is to be held in Ashland on the 10th of this month. ' This district comprises ten counties, which, ith the number of de egates to which ea entitled, are as fol- lows: Cass 16, Douglas 37, Gage 19, Lan- caster 25, Nemaha 4, Otoe 12, Johnson '8, and Saunders 12, me gates. The convention tolay, it is expected, will get through its work in an expeditious man- ner. It is a foregone conclusion that Charle H. Greene will sécure, If not the entire d gation, at least enough of the members to guarantee his nomim,iiou at_the district con- vention. In some of the local wards he had considerable opposition, but it looks as though he had secured all the city ward with the exception of perhaps the first, fifth and sixth, and in- these he is mot without some followers. It been announced that C.E.Yost has withdrawn from the contest, being satisfied that he had allowed Greene to get in earhier and effective work, It has also been intimated that his declination been recompensed by a promise to back him_for licutenant-governor in the next state campaign. It is also stated that he would be pleased to succeed Church Howe on the national republican executive committee. When this fact becomes known it will not tend to increase the cordiality which South Platte country people will be likely to show to the Douglas delegution. Notwithstanding the defeat of the well known churchman last fall, one y 20, he still has a following who look with anything but satisfaction upon a scheme to displace the routed from the im- portant position referred to, which he h: held for the last four years.

Cases Before tho Courts and How They Were Scttled—Who Were on *Change To-Day--Notes About the City A Citizens' Protest. There was no uncortain sound about the citizens’ meoting last night. They denounced the aetion of the council in advancing their own' salaries 500 per cent, while the city was in'debt, and then taxing all legitimate busi nese nien to make up the deficiency. They denounced it moro especially because tho laws of Nebraska say they can not do it. The BeE has already quoted the statutes on the subject. The mecting was a representa tive one, and Mr. John Doe, of the Stock Ex change, was appointed chairman, and 0. S, Shannon secretary. J. W. Bagerton was the first speaker, and d_ the finances of the city were in a_deplorable state, which might or might not be excusable. The suing of the city and obtaininga judgment was preferable to the course the coun- ¢il had - pursued. The proposed tax would cripple prosent, and prevent prospective merchants from locating in South Omaha. It was evident on the face of it that, while the finances were admittedly so low, the council had determined to pay the: selves woll. The old council had been will- ing to do the best they could for £50, but the present one thought their services worth 500 per_cent more. They wanted all the law could by any stretch allow, and then they wanted to tax the business men to pay for it. They did this, notwithstanding that the pro- visions were against it. If they were really the patriots they claimed to be, they would take the old rates of pay and not ask the busin moen to settle for the uncalled-for increase that. they had voted for themselves. J. A. MacMurphy next explained his posi- tion. Pedlers uns itinerant traders might be taxed, but the proposed law3vas wrong. New cities nn\m‘nlll_\' brought in men of lim- ited means, and the ordinauce would tend to drive out all those who were willing to stake their all in & new venture and theu struggle for success. They were the men who built up a new city, and they were the the proposed lawjjwould drive out, if it was enforced. It wasfu-American and public opinion was against it. The proposed move would drive out more business than venue de d would amount to. James H. n Dusen said that he had it personally from South Omaha business men, that they would remove if the la forced. Omaha offered inducements to mer- chants and South Omaha wanted to tax the same men if they came ther He had called on the city treasur tor information as to how the city stood financinlly, but had been refused (it because *‘the mayor and council might not like to have it published.” He was in fayor of paying officials the increase if the finances of the city would allow it, but at present he thought it was wrong. William Kincade said the council had raised their own sal when the finances of the city were in a jeop- ardized condition, and he thought they ought to think twice, They admitted the city was in debt. and yet they wanted to pay them- selves more without knowing where the money was coming from. He claimed the city charter was not worth a cent, and that money could not be raised upon . The council should offer privileges for nothing in- stead of taxing them, and so help South Omaba into the front rank of Neoraska citio At present the council seemed care- less about the city, and were working al- together for themselves. Instead of stopping things from coring into the city they should try to help them. A.J. Baldwin wanted to help the city but not in that way. He had been opposed to the idea from the start and was still there. Dr. Glasgow wanted to know if the four councilmen that voted for the tax had fany interest in the county, or if they could show a tax receipt in their own name. The ser- vices of the present council were worth no more than those of the old one, and he had served for six months without asking a cent. He had voted for “Ennis, Dennis, Pat Row- ley and reform’ and the citizens had not got any of the four. J. F. Ritchhardt thought it was an outrage to tax business men to pay for an _illegal in- crease in salaries. If they couldn’t work for what the old council got let them resign. Hewanted everyone to come to South Omaha, and, although a real estate man didn’t want to be like Dave Anderson,and pay #100 a year to keep all other real estate men out. He wanted it to go on record that way, for the more business men, the more business, and the more money for South Omaha. Then specches to the same cffect were made by Dr. Smith, Messrs. Hogle, Heyman, Graham and Mayfield. The chairman also spoke at some length, He said the men com- ing to new cities were generally men of moderate means, and to tell them the would be taxed for a legitimate business, would be to _keep them out. They should welcome all and especially manufactures. and if they taxed thing let iv be real estate and not business. A motion was passed that J. A. Van usen should presens the council ith a series of resolution s, representing the feeling of the meeting on the subject and that he be assisted by Messrs, John Doe. Ritchhardt, Glasgow and Kincade. Ther olutions read as follows : Whereas, The citizens of South Omaha, in mass mecting assembled, ha after a thorough discussion of the occupation tax ordinance and a careful consideration of the city's finances, arrived at the following con- clusion Iirst. That said tax is un-American, and will if put in operation result in_producing impressions outside that will be injurious to the city. Second—That an occupation tax is a dis- crimination in favor of the rich, us against the poor; that the policy of the city should Dbe to open wide The gates to all honest, legiti- mate business, that every man way equal opportunity Third—That it will lead to drive some of t business men from the city, and will result in impeding the brilliant great prosperity of the city, and will hasten the time when South Omaha will become a part of Omaha. Fourth—That in consideration of the pres- ent condition of the finances of the eity, it would be _impolitic and unwise on the of the council to pass an ordinance raising the salaries of the councilmen and other city oficials. Fifth—That these resolutions of remon- strance against the passage of the occupation tax ordinance be presented to the city council. The meeting then adjourned.
