There was an uncommonly fine crowd in attendance at the Ball park yesterday, and cousequently the manugement feel much elated. Weretofore the week day assem- blages have been much smaller than they should be, considering the magnificent ball the Omaha veam has been putting up. Oma-~ ha has been clamoring for a winning team here ever since the first introduction ot pro- fessional ball, and now that they havea witning team it is no moro than just and equitable that they should manifest their ap- preciation by turning out to see them. The management, too, who have risked their capital and sacrificed their time to fur- ‘nish the people with this grand summer amusement are deserving of the unstinted support of all citizens who take an interest in this great sport. But yesterday's ganie. Like the two previous contests of this serics it was a good one, the visitors leading by a score of 4to 8 up to the ninth inning. « There-was any abundance of beautifal flelding, but up to the juncture above noted scarcely any hitting whatever on either side. Ted Kennedy was in the box for the Pro- Bibitionists, and for eight consecutive in- nings he kept the coming champions guess- ing, bolding them down to five scattering hits. He weakeved, however, in_the ninth, -amd" ithe boys jumped onto him with both :Im, and fairly lambasted the life out of m. - This put the spectators in & good humor for the first time during the struggle, and silade, on tbe diamond was uccom- nied by an incessant, though not musical. owl in the grand stand. It's a very joyful thing, you know, to see your team transform defeat in the fival inning into glorious vie- tory, and it.will set a base ball crowd wild any time. Kid Nichols, who T.nan pre-eminently at the head of the Westbrn association twirling talent, never pitched a better, stronger or headier zame, nllo\vln% Macullar's men but four little hits, giving but two their bases on balls and striking out nine.

SAN F'raxcisco, July 80.—A fight to a fin- ish for a purse of $1,800 took pluceat the Califorma Athletic club to-night betwcen Frank Murphy, the feathorweight champion of England, and Billy Murphy, the feather- weight champion of Australis. The ring waus eutered at 9:20. They weighed 1194 pounds each, the Australian being two inches the taller of the two Time was called-at 9:27. Frank Murphy landed with a left-hander on the Australian’s stomach. A sharp interchange followed. In the first, second and third rounds honors were about even, .but Frank’s blows were apparently mach heavier in delivery and he led mainly for theribs. In the fourth Frank landed a sounding right hander on the Aus- stralian’s wind, and Billy fell on his left knee. On getting up vhe Australian received a blow on his left rib, while his opponent cleverly guarded his left hand ng. In the eighth aloft hander on the chin drove the Aus- tralian back. Frank got in several sound- ers in the round with his right. In the ninth round the Australian kept his man in his corner and followed him closely. when ke changed position he kept his hands going constantly and looking for an opening. In the tenth he again crowded the Englisi- man, and secyred a right upper cut for his pains. Tho Australian was now perspiring froely and inclined to be desperate, In the twelfth- a left hauder on- the Aus- tralian’s ribs was followed by a clear, straight Dblow on the Knghsn- man's nose. A clinch followed and the Australian received another left hand upver cut, He cawme up savago in the thir- teenth and chased his_opponent into the cor- uer, but in the rush which followed he caught o couple of right and left handed swings in the ribs. In the fourtecnth the Englishmau nssumed the aggressive und flerce fighting followed, right und left hand swiogs alternating with savagd upper cuts and punches. Both men fonght themselyes Eroggy. 1n the fifteenth Frank came up a trifle the freshest, but a light left hand swing pushed him to the floor. Immediately after the Avstralian dazed i’rank with a terrific right l.;und swing on the nose und scat bim to the toor. In the sixteenth Billy reutly iutending 1 butt his man out of the rimg with his head, but @ warning from the referoo and some wlling upperocuts caused him to quit. He agnin led for Frank's left ear with his left, and reachied him heavily. “The Englishmaa then, ewita his right hand swing, newrly ;(m- od the groggy Australian from his oot. In the seventeenth the Australian drew blood from the Euglishman’s nose in one of his rushes. In the ninetcouth, as Billy came on with his head down, the Englishman caught him on his hip and Billy pitched clear over his opponent, landing hoavily on his baclk. in the twenty-second I'rank lod, falling short and receiving in return a left hander on tho check that floored him., In the twenty-third, twonty-fourth and twenty-fifth rounds aothing was dono and tho crowd became very impatient. At the end of the twenty-ffth round tho presidest of the club saul that he would have & physi- clan oxamine the men, as tho Australian kept his leit dows, claiming that he was in- jured. Time was called, however, or the Twenty-sixth round the men resumod their tuctics ciroling around without fighting, At the end of the tiventy-seventh round the referee sterpod into the ring aud said it was %Ar— crtthat the fight vould oot go an.

Jackson was billed to-night to spar four rounds with Tom Lynch, the Irish Giant, a big local athlete, mebody put it into Lynch's head that he could down the dar- kay, and he safled into him with that evi- dent intent. The two men began thumping each othor with might and main, and the crowd yelled with delight. Finally, in the second round, with a curso thatcould be heard for block Lynch grabbed Jackson by the_legs, pulle his pins from under him, and jumped on him. The audience sprang nto the chairs and yelled till the roof cracked. The police | rustied in and put a stop to the pugilism. —— THE SPEED RING. Oleveland Raoes. CraveLAxp, Ohio, July 80.—[Spectal Tele- gram to Tur Bee]-Everything went smoothly at the driving park this afternoon, where the grand trotting cirout was com- menced. It had threatened rain last night and the track had got qaite & drenching for two days, but 1t cleared upand the course was in fine condition when President Wil- liam S. Edwards called the trotters for the first race. There was o wonderfully large attendance, an unusual thing hore for an opening, and the card had the names of forty-four horses for the three classes. There was no delay in any of them, two of them being ended in two straight heats, and the other was over in four innings. During that time two trotters entered the 2:20 list, and two pacers followed suit, the fastest mile being to the creditof the Tennessee pacer, Hal Pointer—2:153{. The Michigan mare, Lady Bullion, trotted three fast miles, and has now a record of 2:181{. Another trotter from tho same state, Reference, owned in Detroit, lowered his mark to 2:103 in the first event. These were the notablo features of a fine day’s sport, which though over auickly were not lacking in interest. For the class Reference was a favorite ',hrouxhho\ll at odds which increased as ho won his heats easily. Star Lily showed fast in the third heat, but the talent had their money on reference, and it is not likely she would have won if she could at that stage, In the 2:24 pace William M. Singerly was ‘ve first favorite at 18 to 25 against a big #eld, and after getting the first heat and a record 9:17%, he was more cconfidently backed at 5 to 4. He looked like a winner till the five-year-old gelding, Hal® Pointer, \was sent along from the third quarter, and though Crit Davis used the whip, Singerly could not keep up the fast clip. for he had gone three-q 53{ gait. Thereafter Hal Pointer had it his own way, outflnishing Markland each time from the third quarter. Almont and Lynn W were the choices in the 2:22 trot, but Lady Bullion captured the first heat and was a favorite thereafter, The Kalamazoo mare, Eminence, looked danger- ous In the second and third heats, but broke at critical times, Knapsack McCarthy laid Lyun W up till the third heat, but after leading on the home stretch Lady Bullion beat him by a nose. Thero are three events for to-morrow, the 2:27 and 2:20trots and free-for-all pace. On Thursday Axtell starts to beat 2:131, the stallion record made by Maxy Cobb. Guy will also trot to beat Maud S's vime during the week. 30 cLAss, PURSE $2,000. Refence (Stanley) .. R Star Laly (Goldsmith).... Wayne Wilson (Lackey). EXSCE Rajah (McCarthy) .

The Omaha brewerles have been sold. Mr. Maloney, for the eastern syndicate, and the local brewers agreed upon terms yesterday afternoon. To-night the papers will be made out formally completing the transfer. The prices to be paid for ench of the local plants has not been divulged, but calculating from Fred Krug's declaration to a Beg reporter last week, that they wouldn’t sell their plant for loss t han $300,000, it is probable the amount involved i the com- bined sales is not far short of $1,500,000, The interested gentlemen also refuse to say who Maloney reprosonts, but even that is hardly needful in view of what they said when interviewod last week. Mr. Kru% id it was the Rothchilds of London and Paris who wore buying the breweries. Mr. Ma- loney deni this, but said plllnlr that it was European money he represented. Then he went on to explain that some years @go, when he was the treasurer of a Colorado county, whose counuy seat is at Gumison, this fact was made plain to him, i.e., that fear of a continental war would impel ‘wealthy European houses to look to America for safe investments for their surplus cap- ital. From appearances il would seem that he had utilized his idea by entering into the service of the smd Kuropean capitalists. He is a mémber of a firm whose main office is in New York city, and which maintains & wostern department, of which he is the head, at Kansas City. Mr, Maloney was visited in his room at the Murray last evening. With him were Messrs. Metz und Iler. ql‘hey confirmed the facts given above, but refused to sav any- thing further until the transfer should be finally and completely made. s et Merchants’ Week. Last night one of the most suecessful meetings of the ‘Merchants' Week associa- tion was held in the rooms of the board of trado. There wa% & large attendance and reports were made showing thut all the com- mittees were working energetically and that the prospects for &, grand week of entertaln- ments and festivity,Were most encouraging.

Jack Dempséy/ gdhk me ‘this story the other evenin§,.§;\y writer in the St. Louis Post-Dispatchi: I never made a business of teaching.for several reasons. It is not' satisfactory from a financial standpoint, - and it" has many annoy- ances. If you teach you are tied to your pupils and must not break your en- gngemeuts with them. You cannot ispose of your time with as good re- sults as if you are free. Now and then, though, I have given lessons to my friends for nothing, and once I had a pupil who paid me.. That was in San Francisco; he was a physician of that city ahd gave me $20 a lesson. I would not go through tne same trouble again for $200 a lesson. He was one of those theatrical athletes who have their heads stuffed full of rules,and he nearly had me crazy. A bout with him was like a policy game—‘one’ meant a straight left hander; ‘two’ a straight right nander; ‘one-two’ a right hand cross counter; .‘two-four’ a left hand swing; then there was ‘vwo-four-two’ and ‘four-two-four’ and ‘five-seven- eight’ and all other combinations you can make out of the numbers below ten. He insisted that I should go by the book and was kind enough to show me eva?vl.mng. Dagh the thing, T got those figures on the brain trying to learn, and could not sleep for the nightmare they gave me. I got the book to see if he really under- stood it himself. Yes, he had itall straight. It did not seem to occur to him that instead of me teaching he was teaching me. Finally when in the mid- dle of one of his lectures I did this. (Here Dem})sey drew back his left fist and threw forward his left foot with a violent motion, clenching his teeth as he did so.) ‘What is the matter of this?’ I asked as I sent_a good hot left- bander at him. As- I expected, both his hands flow up in front of his face and that one motion scattered all his theory. It was not a particularly hard punch, but it landed fair in his stomach and doubled him up in a corner. When he got on his feet again he remembered an engagement he nad been neglect- ing and went right off to attend to it. That was the last I saw of him and I must say T was glad. I would have gone insane if he had kept on trying to stuff me with his book. “What he was doing was good enough if he only in- tended to show his friends how clever he was in a parlor, but for fighting purposes it was absolutely useless. The power of h‘lm@g ‘hard, getting away quickly and stading prolonged and severe hammering. only comes from practice. Rules which can do a pugi- list any good ate Uvery few and very simple and he sebn ‘learns them by ex- perience. Readi books will never teach any man how to fight, and I doubt if it will help him. The En J Mr. Augusting’. Birrell, who recently entered the British rliament as a member for Fifesbjre, does not seem to have & high opinion of parliamentar; life. In a chaptewef an additional vol- ume of Obiter Dicta, just published, he says: “The avatfeious man ‘commences politicion’ in !“hope of getting a place; the loguaciods man in the hope of getting hearers; the nhandsome man in the hope of getting admirers; the inconveniently rich man in the hope of Fen.lng rid of some money; the man who ikes good feeding in the hope of get- ting good dinners; the man who is bored by the domestic bearth in the hope of getting his evenings out; the high born man in the hope of getting favorably compared with the other sort of men: the lawyer who cannot obtain briefs in the hope of getting vompensation for failure,” ‘o which class does Mr. Birrell belong?

GOING ' FOR THE GAMBLERS. Kearney Making War Upon That Olasa of Her Citizens—A Serions Oharge Against a Mine ister at Friend. A Change of Public Opinion. Prxpen, Neb., July 80.—[Special to Trr Ber.]~Publio sentiment is rapidly turning against the Indian prisonors in jail at this place on suspicion of boing the murderers of the little Benjamin boy last Saturday after- noon. The chief cause assigned for the sud- den change in publio opinion 1s the fact that yesterday afterncon, when the prisoners ‘were being brought into town, a white man, who 1s married to a sister of Henry M. Rice, the halfbreed implicated, met the party and in an excited manner cried aloud to Rice: “Now, Henry, don't you answer a d—-da uestion until 1 see you!" Many, who a low hours ago, pretended to believe the shootiug accidental, are now united in the opinion that ‘‘there's a nigger in the fence,” and unless the Indians can produce stronger testimony in their favor than it is now be- lieved possible for them to do saltpeter will not save them. A Uase of Unintentional Bigamy. NEBRASKA City, Neb., July 30.—A peculiar and interesting case of unintentional bigamy has just been brought to light in this city. Honry Jones, a truck farmor, now living near this city, about flve years ago married Alice Morrow, a girl about fifteen years his junior, the daughter of a small market gar- dener living near Peoria, Ill. For one year their married lite was a happy one, and the girl, who was thought by Jones' friends to be somewhat wild, tamed down and made a most exemplary wife. At the end of fifteen months Mrs. Jones became discontented and went to Ottawa for a visit. While there, it Js said, she oloped with a member of a minstrel company which was playing there at the time. Jones, when he heard of the matter, made but little fuss and 1o attempt to catch his runaway wife. A few months later he received a copy of a paper containing a notice of the death of his wife at Lafayette, Ind. His season of mourning was short and he soon_began to make love to his mother-in-law, Mrs. Mor- row, who had taken up her residence with Jones upon the death of her husband, which ocourred shortly after her daughter’s mar- riage. Seven months after Jones heard of the death of his wife he led the biushing widow to the altar at Peoria. The couple came to Nebraska City about three years ago and have since lived near here. Two weeks Coi Jones was startled by the appearance of his girl-wife. She said she had led & bitter life and weary and heart- sick had determined to seek her husband, hoping for shelter if not forgiveness. She bad’been to the old home, and there learned that her husband and mother had cowme to Nebraska City, but her friends had told her nothing of the marriage, which had been kept as secret as possible, She explained the death notice as part of the game she had played in order to escapo pursuit and recov- ery. Mr. Jones was in the city ycsterday consulting an_attorney as to what steps to take in the matter. A divorce from the first wife will probably be secured and a new marriage entered into with his mother-in- law. He says his first wife will not opposo this plan, as there is no love lost between them, and all she wants is a home aud quiet for the rest of her life, both of which Mr. Jones agrees to give her, A Serious Charge.

Secretary Lott read the telegram from Governor Thayer to J. A. Hake.

Messra. Paxton and MoShane Speak. The following coymunication from Hons. William A. Paxton and John A. McShane tells of the acts of the members and ofMcors of the Land Syndicate company n connec- tion with the city council's action on strect railway mattors: OwmanA, Neb., July 20, 1838.—To the Bditor of Tur Bee: An article appeared in an Omaha paper of the 27th inst. signed “South Omaha’’ reflectivg seriously on the South Owaha land syndicate and insinuating that the syndicate had used unlawful means to procure certain measuros through the coun- cil of the city of South Omuhba, and reflect- ing seriously upon the integrity of Council- men McMillen and Johnston.. As-to these gentlomen, we have nothing to say, knowing that they are amply able to take caro of themselves, But as far as the South Oniaha syndicate is concerned it has never taken uny action whatever only that which in its judg- ment would be for the best interest of South Omaha. Asto having “minnions’ in the city council 1n the interest of the ayndicate we are very much assured that the iatelligent people of South Omaha are sufMciently well acquainted with the members of the South Omaha syndicate to know that the intercst of that place and the intorest of thesyndicate are identical, and that, thorefore, the latter would do nothing either in council or out of it which would be detrimental to the interest of our flourishing city. If the person who signs *'South Omaha’’ has any personal mat- ter with Messrs. McMillan and Johnston let him adjust the matter with them and not at- tompt to vilify the South Omaha syndicato for imagined offenses of individual membort of the city council. The syndicate wishes is distinetly understood that it has no profe encu in the route which any stroet railway company shall take, whether it be the east or west side or both, nor for the company oporating the same. ' Furthermore, we have 10 interest in either compuny, but’ do_hopa that both companies will build to South Omaha. The syndicate has never atauny time spolren to Meosrs, Johnston' or McWil- liams as to how they should vote on the question. Very respectfully, W. A. PAXTON, vresident South Omaha land company.
