Miss Willlams Makes Sevoral Spurts ina Vain Endeavor to Hend the Procession—Base Ball and Race! The Bicycle Race. The patrons of the Coliseum have lost nono of their interest in the lady bykers, as was attested by the large attendance, yesterday, at the opening of the six d ace, four hours a day, with the same contestants that appeared here last month. The contest w bea better one than was given by the fair bykionnes at their first appearance. The riders are all in better condition, and give promise of making a speedier ra The start was made yesterday afternoon at 8 o'clock, and was a lively one from the erack of the pistol to the close of the two bours' session, The first fact made promi nent was that Miss Williams will not ha walkaway in this race. As soon as the riders werc fairly started she wade an effort te gain a lap by one of her old time spurts. Much to her suprise, sbe found Oakes, Woods and Baldwin close after her. They wouldn't be shaken. Th. first mile was made in 3:48, and 15 miles an 3 laps were covered the first hour. Ar- maindo rode 15 miles and drew off from the other contestants, keeping together through the two hours, scoring 30 iles and 4 laps. The building was fairly well filled when the riders started for the two hours' evening run at 8 o'clock. At 8:30 Miss Williams made another desperate effort to put a lap between herself and her competito) She dido't succeed. Petite Jessie Oakes was right after ner aud stayed there. Beauty Baldwin lost a lap, but the Omglia favorite could not get away from Oakes and Woods. Just at the prettiest part of the race Williams and Oakes coliided and both were carried from the rog. Miss Woods took advantage of the mishap and gawed a lead of two laps. The victims of the accident remounted almost immediately, Williams gaining her speea first and securing o leaa of alap on the the plucky English girl. The position of the riders was not changed duriug the rest of the evening and they crossed the line at 10 o'clock in a bunch with the following score: Miles Laps Woods. .59 7 Williams 50 5 Baldwin. 5 Onkes 4 Low! 2 Brown .

Des Moixgs, Ia., April 28.—[Special Tel- egram to Tug Bre.|—A pardon by the gov ernor was made out to-day for Dietch, who i8 now in the peuitentiary at Ananosa, under a life sentence for murder. The case is one of uncommon interest from the f that the possibility is that Deitch is an inno- cent man, and has boen suffering for another man's crimo, A man named Juseph Thum was murdered at Cedar Rapids about four years ago. Governor Sherman offered a reward of 8500 for the arrest of the mur derer, and Dictch and a man named Thum were arrested and convicted of murder in the second degree and sentenced to the pen tentiary for life. Dietch stoutly afirmed his innocence and the governor was led to beliove that the man who gave evidence against him did 8o to get the roward, and ho refused to pay it. Nevertheless, Dictch was convicted, and_has been in prison nearly four years. Somo of hisold army f have followed up tne case, and belioving that he was innocent, have collected all the evidence they had to prove that fact. Af eful investigation, Gover Larrabee oncluded to give the man a pardon, and on May 1 he will be set free, after vearly four years of what, 1n all probability, has been an illegal imprisonment. Hel!

His recovery 1s doubtful. & e A AMUSEM 'S, Taking into consideration the fact that his engagement 18, unfortunately, sandwiched between very strong and high priced attrac. tions, Fred Warde drew a much better au- dience to the Grand opera house last night than had been expected he wouid. Still, his business here will not reach any such figure a8 he deserves, It is to be regretted, Loo, because he 1s an excellent actor and worthy of better treatment. Last night Mr. Warde produced for the first, and it is to be hoped the last, time in this city, the new play, *“The Mountebank.” So far as the performance, artistically, is concerned, it was great, and pleased those who witnessed it immensely, but the story tola, and the action depicted so wmuch sor- row and suffering and uelty and agony that the griet felt by the audience overbal- anced any enjoyment they might have been able to glean from the entortainment, While Mr. Warde piays the part of a French moun- tebank most admirably, and demonstrates in it that he is an actor of remarkable power, as well us versatilivy and intelligence, the public would rather see bim in *Virginius," or in Shakesperian tragedies. ‘fhe supporting company is a very good one. Miss Adele Belgarde took the part of Madeline, wife of the mountebank, capitally. She looked and acted it to perfectian, and Miss Stells Bouiface, as 8 professional dan- Bense, was quite eaptivating. Gertio und Allie MceGiill, the children, elicited mueh ad- miration. All the other parts were well presented, and as o whole the performanc? guve great satisfaction, The compsny will ||lu{ @ centennial matinee this afternoon, aud close the eogagsment to-night with “Damon and Pythiss,” as the bill.

SHOT AND BEATEN TO DEATH. The Murdorers Secure Nearly Five Hundred Dollars—Their Foot« prints in the Snow— Pur- suit Instituted. Forgot to Close the Door. Foustai, Colo., April 20.—{Special Telo- gram to Tk Bee.] —A. S. Hastin g8 was mur dered here last night by tramps. The affair oceurred in the operating rooms of the Santa Fo station at this point, where Hastings was employed as night operator. The murder is known to have been committed by two tramps, and it is thought that four or five were engaged in the affair. After delivering orders o the north bound express, at 2 o'clock this morning, Hastings reentered his office forgetting to lock the door. The tramps enteced after the depar- ture of the train and demanded that he open the company’s safe. As Hastings was igno- rant of the combination he was perfectly honest when he replied that he did not know how. Disbelieving him the two tramps began a most terrible assault on the defenscl overator. An examination of the room indi- cated the terrible nature of the struggle which ensued, and that the operator fought desperately before he fell mortally wounded. During the struggle F , in addition to being bruised and s d, was shot by some person standing behind him, The bul- let entered his left shoulder, and taking a diagonal course, passed out of tho right breast, above the ribs. It was found this morning lylng by the safe. While their v tim lay bleeding and helpless, bogging pi fully for his life, his assailants calmly rifled his pockets taking $30 and the keys of his cash drawer from wivich they obtained £465 more. In their haste to quit the scene they made no attempt to disturd the safe in which §150 was deposited. At the momentyof the murder, snow was falling heavily and soon after the discovery of the crime footprints in the snow were plainly discernible. They were those of two men, evidently of immense size, one weari a No. 11 shoe, the other a No, 8. The; only traceable for a short distance. Neither could be mistaken for operators. After the departure of the murderers Hastings managed to leave the station and crawl to the house of the agent, Mr. Denny, about five hundred feet away; bleeding and with scarcely a spark of life, the unfortu ate man, after a struggle, reached Denn window 'aud feebly knockiag, cried, *Oh Denny.” “Who is there?” was asked, when the voico r.fimny exclaimed, “Hastings; hurry up, I'm shot.” Denny thereupon rushed out and found Hastings in a semi-unconscious condition, lying face foremost on the ground. He car- ried him into the honse, and, after being par- tiully revived, Hastings said: ‘‘They held me up. I'm shot, tramps did it. Wire to Mr. Wright, Tappan, Ohio."” Exhausted by the effort Hastings, who was lying in the agent’s arms, expired. e organized and started in pursuit ramps, who, if captured, will in all probabitity be lynched. Word was tele- | gravhed along the line and a number of bums captured who will be held to await instiga- | tiou. STATE NEW! Polk County and the Twine Trust.
