The morning game will be catled at 10:80 and the afternoon game at 8:80. Tne two t have out their fullesy strength, close and hard fought battles will bo the result. Everybody BO. Omaha sioux City 0. Sioux City, the team that came down five or six wecks ago and lambasted Omaha for three straight Yesterday afternoon th to the ball park to see whether they couldn’t white- wash the White Sox one inning out of nine, and they did it, but it was the closest kind of a shave. The Omahas had it in for the Corn Husk- ers, and they all but wiped them from the face of the earth. In the -y first inning Mr. Webber, who was in the box for the visitors, fell into the sizzling puree, and it made the crowd of fif- teen hundred people very jubilant. They remembered Mr. Wi or A few weeks back, when his drops and shoots and other productions played such havoc with the Whi OX.. But let's sce how 1t all came to pass. In_the opemng inning Willis. Cleveland and Strauss wero seat to firston bad balls in rapid succession. Jack Crooks then came to the plate, and deluging it with a mouthful of Yucatan juice for luck, he c “Get ready there, no when I kil it, come in." Then Webber sent lim one of his clioicest drops, and Jack wet it cordially, making a beautiful line hit to left field, on which ‘Willis and Cleveland scored. What a shout there was at that. Everybody thought, you know, of course, thatthe struggle was going to be hot and furious, and wanted to hooray while thoy had a chance. The next man up was the lad with the terra cotta curls, and before anybody real- ized it ho had smashed the ball way out over Helman’s nhead for three sacks; then Andrews followed with a homer over the fence; Nagle got to first on an egregious muff by Powell; Clarke struck out; Willis ‘was hit with the ball, and Cleveland made a fine drive for three cushions, and the result of this fearful cannonading was nine large, fat, corn-fed runs. 'Oh, Webby, Webby ! cried the crowd. ‘W hat ails you?" In tneir half the visitors also scored, but one tally, however, and Cline got that. He knocked out o three-bazger, and came 1n after Willis had caught Powell’s fly. “Then the White Sox stepped right up for eight more consceutive innings, and bounded out one or more runs in every one of them, save the last, when a bit of sharp fielding closed them out. Gracious, how the crowd did cheer and Jeer and guy the Corn Huskers, und when, the game was over they looked like a crowd of dyspeptics. They did some cle stick work, however, and there is no probability that Clarke found it necessary to let out any extra kinks in ms Derby last night. 1In the sixth inning they ®ot his range beautifully, and on five cork- ing singles drove 1n four runs, and had it not have been for superb fielding, would have made as many more, They were hopclessly behind, however, and played in a dispirited, perfunctory sort of a way, and seemed only anxious to get through with the game as quickly us pos: here Il of you, and iebel in the box, and tms afternoon agan: and Captain Brosnan says he will e woefully disappointed if thoy don't take both games, The score: OMAMA.

July 8.~ Orow CORETRE AsSEMDLY GROUNDS, [Special to Tur Bre. ] —It is evident that the crowd is daily incroasing. The Crete ns- sembly has a large constituency of the b and brightest people of Nebraska; it has eight successful years behind it, and can not be superseded or in any way diminished by any new organization of the kind. It was the first Chautauqua assembly over ostub- lished in Nebraska, and will probably alway remain first, both in numbers and in real merit, The unusually cool weather of last night and this morning created a groat de- mand for wraps and woolen avparel. Trunks were ransacked and grips were emptied of their contents in the search for something to keep warm, and sighs were breathed for shawls and overcoats left behind, However, by 10 o’clock the genial rays of the sun had sufticioutly warmed the avmosphere and dis- pelled the dampness, and comfort again reignad among tho tent-dwellors. To-day being lawyers’ and editors’ day the thought of the morning prayer meeting turned to these two great professions. The leader read extracts from St. Paul command- ing the keeping of the law, and showing that the beginning of the law is in and from God. Prayer was made for lawyers that they might be able to interpret the law correctly, and help people to understand it. The mighty power for good or evil that the new: paver exerts was dwelt upon, and prayer was made for editors that they may under- stand tho importance of tieir work, and use their great ifluence always only for the things that are honest and pure and of good that they may serve the Lord with arts and with' their papers. The regular classes of the forenoon met as usual, and with their usual attendance and interest. Dr. Duryea’s bible stulents’ class seemed even more’ interesting th The instructor grew so animated that he dis- carded the chair on which he usually sits during this hour and delivered to- lecture standing. In his study of the books of the bible he has uow come to the books of Moses. The framework of these five books is history, and the history received some additions after his time. I'he people of Israel were responsible for these books, and took care that no one should tamper wilh them. The lecturer showed the importance of these books to us, There is no better written book in all literabure for its purposes, than the book of Genesis. It is both scientific and philosophic, and it shows the making of the Hebrew poople—a people without” whom there would have been no christianity, a peo- ple more important in many respects than v the world has ever kuown. In o > life of Moses was made up of twenty of pupilage, twenty years of reflection and preparation and tw s of efficient work, the lecturer. cmphasized the fact that Moses spent forty years in getting ready for his worlk, and regretted that to-day people spent 50 little time in preparing for their life wor In showing that patriotism is second only ve to God, he took advantage of the nc of the national holiday and delivered Fourth of July specch, but spoaking athing terms of the neglect or indiffer- ence of Americans to many things tnat go to make a righteous natiou. At 2 p. m. occurred the principal event of the lawyer's part of the day—the lecture on “The Art of the Advocate,” by Hon.J. W. Dovavan, of Michigan. More than a score of lawyers ocuupicd seats in the large audi- ence. Upon the platform were three judyes of as many judicial districts in Nebraska. After a cornet solo by Miss Park, Judge Donavan was introduced by President I7oss, and began one of the finest lectures ever delivere{ on the Assembly platform. I'he judge is a man of fine appearance and great ability, and has power to interest common people as well as lawyers. His address wa pointed and illustrated by many real inci dents from the colrt room, told with the peculiar zest of one familiar with such The lecture must be heard to be ated. 5 o'clock Hon.

The excrcises were under the superintendence of State S tary A.Nash,assisted by other prominent workers. The programme began at 7:30 by an address by W. O, Henry, assistant state secretary, The address was attentively listened to and was replete with many interesting points and detaits of information relative to the Y. M. C. A. worl in this state. At 11 o'clock a very large audience assom- bled in the tabernacle to participate In the conference on permancnt work and biblo The exercises were conducted by coretary Nash and elicited much in- ce. 2 p. m. the exercises wero opencd by a grand sacred concert by the Y. M, C.A. male choir, under the leadership of Prof. M. S. Calvin. This was fo[- lowed by an interosting address by General ~ Secretary - B, €. Carroll, of Beatrice, on the “History of the Y. M. C. After another song by the choir Gen- scretary J. A, Dummett, of Lineoln, spoke interestingly upon the' “*Mothods of Work,” and was followed by President J. H. Markett, of tho Ligeoln Y. M. .

The legislaturo has by almost unanimous vote decided to re- submit the matter to the people. Michigan passed the law in 1853 and kept it for twenty-two years, when, finding the futility of autempting to enforce prohibitory moasuves, she abandoned it in 1875.

Wasson sug- gests to Dr. MeGlynn and Henry George a method of abolishing poverty in about two centuries and a f by the simple device of investing $10,000 and lotting it go on increasing at compound intercst for that length of time, The results are startling, He says: *‘As- suming that, when put out at compound interest, the principal doubles itself every fifteen § —no very ex gant assumption—the $10,000 invested in 1620 would to-day amount to the in- conceivably enormous sum of $184,207,- 50,000! And this sum invested at the ate of 4 per cent would yield an-annual income of $7,368,224,400, which sum, be it remembered, would be available every year in perpetuity for the noble but misty objects of the Awnti-Poverty society.” .
