Last Day of the Tournament, The Yourth and last day of the tournament was all that the most critical or fastidious could desire, so far as the weather was con- cerned. The attendance at Union park, al- though not quite equal to that of the two precediug days, was still very large, con- siderably exceeding five thousand people. Comparatively few of the visitors had left for home on the Thursday evening trains, as ali found the racos of sufiicient interost to induce them to stay to tho close. The racos at the park renced about 10 o'clocik m the forenoon. ‘The first race on tho day’s programme was the hose race, 4 class. There were seven starters, and th ran 1 the following order: J. M. Hairs, of Fort Dodge; Dennisous, of Mason City; Avocas, of Avoca; Hardings, of Harla Eisemans, of Couneil Bluffs; Hopes, of Mas shaltown: Mannings, of Manning. “The first four ran during the forenoon, and the other three finished before the free-for-nll was callea in the afternoon. The result of cach run was as follows: The Hairs made the run in 39, and the coupling in 47. The Dennisons made the run in 8%, and coupled in 45, Avoca and Harlan both failed to get time, as their couplings were incomplote. The Eisemans made the run in 48, and the coupling in 45, This was the best time ever made by this team. The Hopes made the run in_40, and made their coupling in 451, It only lacked a quarter of 5 o'clock when the bell tapped at the sturt of the Manning team. This was the last run of the 47 class. he run was made in 895, and_the coupling in 40. This gave the ruce to the Kisemans, Hopes second, in 4514, and the Denni s and Mannings tied for third place, in . They ugreed to divide the purse and took $25 each Two 100 yard foot race: the forenoon. T were run during first was between Thorn- ish, of Lunsing, Mich., and Ross, of Wahoo, Neb. It was won by Ross in 9 3.5, It was an ioteresting exhibition, being not only v fast, but very closely contested. Ross won by about two~ inches. The track was about twenty-four feet short. The other sprinting race was between Lozier, of Council Bluffs, and Elliott, of Au- dubon. It was an uninteresting hippodrome, Lozier winning easily in 10 seconds. These races completed the programme for the fore- noon. It was nearly 3 o’clock was resumed in the afterndon. After the unfinished 47 class had been run off, the free- for-all hook and ladder race was called. Tliere were two prizes offered, $200 to first, and $100 to second. There were three of tries -the Stuart Hook and Ladder com- tuart; Audubon Hook and Ladder of Auaubon, and Otoes, of Ne- ity. The latter did not have their truck with them, and the others ungra- ciously refused to let them have the use of their apparatus. The judyes decided to let them run through, which they did in 45, The Stuarts made the run and climb in 471§, and Audubou in'52, giving first money to Stuart, The . Lacy juvenile hose team then gave an exhibition run of 125 yards. The kids gave a very pretty cxhibition and were loudly applauded, A horse hose race was next given. wus but ono entry, the No. 1 hose of the Council Bluffs fire department. Chief Walters started with his buggy at the same time, ‘The race was from a sianding start, run 200 yards, attach to hydrant, lay 100 yards hose, break coupling and attach pipe. ‘I'he race was a lively one. The chief’s horse made the run in 253, and the hose team n 351, The coupling was completed in just one minute, The last race of the day and of the tourna- ment was the grand free-for-all hose race, for which there were seven entries. They started in the following order: Alvords, of Eldora; Whitneys, of Atlantic; Rescues, of Council Bluffs; Dennisons, of Mason City: Kramers, of Kearney; Hopes, of Marshalitown, and Chapins, of Union. The Alyords made a tine rua in 88, but theur coupling fell wrong side up and they used up 46 seconds before their wok was completed. The Whitneys made a little slower run, heing caught in 89, but they made a handy coupling and got a mark of 4514, ‘The interest of Council Bluffs centered in the next race. The Rescues took their posi- tion at 6:15, und speedily ruled off the liv liest run of the tournament, They finished with a handsome spurt in 87, but the same diffeulty that the Alvords oxperienced foll 10 tho 1ot of the Rescues, The coupling fell upside down, and ten full seconds w ore Betz finally made his coupling. time, as finully announced from the s’ stand, was 47, and a weary lot of Bluflites said good-bye to several hundred good, hard simoleons, which went to enrich the pockets of visiting_ spo It was the last chauce the Rescues biad to do the beauti- {ful, and they were beautifully left. Much of the blame, if it can be rightl, aracterized as such, was duc to the over-exertion of Betz. Jnstead of running ahead, he insisted on working the brake himself, and in this manner over the coupling several fev It was a sad disappointment, and tho ers of the team concealed thoir cha; best they could.

The body on_the sand bar for the past five days and had been in the water, appareptly, for three weeks, The only evi- dence the coroner could obtain boyond that offered by the mass of putrifying flesh itself was that given by a man who found the body in the river a week ngo while goigg down in a skiff, and who pulled it to the sandbar and tied 1t'to the willows, and who came back three days after and found it still laying there, Two days later he roported the fact to the Omaha authorities. In the pants pockets wero found a revolver and 80 cents in money, and in one of tho coat pockets a letter writien on the business lot- ter head of Forbes Bros., importers of Clydos- dale horses, Jefforson, Ia. The letter was dated Jefferson, March 2, and preferred the charge of drunkenness against W. C. Sturda- vant, a member of lodge, No. 815, 1 0.0. ., of Jeffe was signed oy the secretary, C. M. Forbes. in another pocket, in & mass of papers the water had re- duced to a pulp, were two receipts printed on linon paper, given by the Southwestern Towa Mutual Benefit association, both dated Jef- ferson, March 9, one to Mary M. Sturdavant for £3.63 dues and the other to W. C. Sturda- vant for 82,80 for dues to the same assovia- tion, The receipts were numbered 5039 and 2096, respectively, and both sizned “H. C. Sayer, per S. Flack, secretary.” ‘There s but little doubt that the body is that of W. C, Sturdavant, a_well known character of Jefferson, who left_thut town a month ago to come to Counwl Bluffs, where all trace of him was lost, It is believed that lie camo here with a considerable sum of money to purchase horses, and if this can be proven there are grounds for believing he was roobed and murdered and the body thrown intd the ri Or it may be possi- ble he took his own life. It is reported_that he has \thy relatives living near Yank- ton, Dak, The body was taken to Fairview cemetery last evening und buried. il Free For All Thieves, One ofthe most remarkable features of the tournament is the vast number of crooks, thugs and gamblers of high and low degree who have attended from the first day. Another equally remarkablo thing is the boldness and indeconcy they have been per- mitted to use in running their games. There i8 not a skin game that has ever been devised that has not been operated with as much boldness as the startcr or the ticket sellers use in_dischaiging their dutics. The bold- ness of the transactions has been the chief cavse of complaint, for it has been the means of catching hundreds who are ordinarily wary to protect themsoelves, but were dis- armed by the business-like way the games were conducted and the prominence given them by the management. ‘The sharks could show some sort of u liconse from the city and the police could not or would not arrest them, althourh the meanest- robberics were committed right in the dazzle of the official clothin sun ani had been lying sterday morning an effort was made by Judge Bolton to get the thieves within the pale of the la Charles Seibert, an Omaha man, imagif he was shrewd enough to beat'the fellows at their own game, and put up $05. The wheel turned and he won, but the fellow grubbed the money and refused to give it up. Seibert endeavored to have him arrested but failed, and was hustlied away by the gang of capper He applied to Juage Bolton, as au attorney, for assistance, and with the intention of pointing out the fellow to the judge for indentification, re- rned to the vicinity of the greedy wheel. They were 1mmediately surrounded by a gang of the toughs and pushed, kicked and cuffed. This was more than Judge Bolton's democratic southern’ blood could endure, and a lively time ensued for a few moments. ‘The judge’s friends rescued him and brought him up town. He went into Justice Bur- nett's court and swore to an_information charging a large number of unknowns with assault and batte Warrants were issued and a corps of cons les dispatched to the grounds to serve them, but every oneof the skin games was in the hanas of new men. After patroling the grounds for sev- eral hours the oflicers were unuable to find the judge's assaiiants, and returned the writs at 2 o’clock unserved. The management of the tournament are pretty freely criticized for the hicense given the sharks o rob their patrons. It has been even intimated that some of the gentlemen interested in the management were on very intimate terms with the thieves themselves, It is reported that oue victim lost 200, and went to one of the gentlemen high up in authority and made a lively remonstrance. He proved to be a personal friend of the gentleman, and the matter was quickly set- tled by the gambler returning the money to his victim, ~ The littie act from the Damon and Pythias drama was a very pleasant epi- sode, and worthy of a good ul of com- mendation, but it affords very little consola- tion for the other victims of the thieves who were not fortunate enough to have some personal friend in the management. 1 have been at hundreds of every kind of public gatberings from Maine to Texas,” said a business man toa Bee revorter, last night, *“but I never saw so much anda such mean and bold thievery as I saw at the driving park yesterday. There were thou- sands of dollars stolen from the people, and the thieves protected by the mayor's little license. .

Then there at least fifty L booths started in various parts of the city, with some sort of an understanding with the city that they were to bo permitted to run during the tournument. ‘They started up so suddenly and in such unexpected places that 1 am confident t not one-half of them had even a government license, These featurcs of the tournament were a sad disgrace to the city, and the people who are not responsible for it are heartily ashamed of it.” - ‘Che Chautasqua, The Council Bluffs and Omaha Chautau- qua assembly have been careful not to advertise attractions which they can not present.
