McCormick is in New York city in attendance at a meeting of the minor leagues, during which it is to be hoped they will take a stand for them- selves, and map out a course to pursue, in the future, looking to their own protection and advaneement.

Ever since the formation of the American Shooting association there has been a project on foot by prominent shots to place a combi- nation nf cracks upon the road to tour the principal states ana give either exhibition shooting or five men tesm matches, after the order of base ball associations in the various cities. It is thought such a scheme would do much toward increasing the interest in trap shooting and shooting generally than by the holding of tournaments in the principal citics as has been determined upon. Parmelee, Dunmire and other local shots prefer the tournament scheme, @8 they hope to secure one of the national tourna- ments for Omaba in the spring. This tour- nament system, however, it seems f{rom an unbiased standpoint, can only breed jealosy and dissatisfaction. The cities that Tail to secure theso tournaments will feel sore and dissatisfied, and so it goes, The American shooting association is something the lovers of the gun have long been in want of, as the Support it has already received goes to prove. 1t is in fact a necessity founded on almost an invinci- ble financial basis, o capital of §50,000 at its command aud disposal, to make trap shoot- ing us much a nutional sport as is to-day racing and base ball. Good business men are at the head governing and managing the organization, who, if the object of the asso- ciation 1s at’ all feasible, wiil make it, as it virtually and practically husalready become, the American trap-shooters’ vade mecum. aveling teams, however, have been solected and will make a tour of the country next season, These teams are as follows: EASTERN TEAM, Haryey MoeMurchey, Syracuse, N. H. W. Euger, Boston, Mass, Whitney, New York city. W. S. Walsencroft, Pniladelphia, Fa. J. Dickey, Boston, Muss, WESTERN TEAM. Mr. C. W, Budd, Des Moines, Ia, ir. R, O.

There is one ugly feature about base ball that should be remedied, it possible, ana that is the shabby treatment accorded um- pires. Hardly a game took place last scason on any grounas but what this officiul was made the butt of a storm of vulgar cpithets by displeased occupants on both the bleach- ers aud in the grand stand, aud in many in- stances rattling the man to such an extent that he didn’t know whether he was umpir- iug @ game of ball or referceing a prize fight, What each ciub mansgement shoula do, 1s to have a suficient number of policemon on hand to preserve order. Let the man who mukes the first disorderly break be promptly ejected from the grounds, may be. This would certainly have a salu- tary effect upon others inclined to make themselves obnoxious, iusure better uwmpir- ing and a better ulluuluu ) The Boy Byker's Challenge, Sporting Editor of Tug Be © inse the following in Sunday’s sporung columns and oblige 1 challenge any boy bicyele rider in Amer- ica under sixteen years of age, (barring Will Pixley), to ride wo a bioycle race, to take plucein the Omaha Coliseum at any time or for any amount.

Why dou’t the captain call a moonlight run this weck!

It may be that the craze of roller skating will be revived in all its glory tho coming winter, but it 18 hardly likely. Mr. Prince has ordered 500 pairs of roller skates for the use of the public, and 10,000 conies of the rules and regulations of the Coliseum Polo league are now in print, Plumbers aro busy putting in the machinery for heating the building, and everytbhg will be, as Prince says, in “pineapple shape’’ by a wee from Thursday, ‘I'he league will consist of the follo : The Omaha Guards, S, . Morse, C. R, Faulkner & Co., Omaha Wheel club, The Co Gate City Athletic elub, D. M. St Co. and the Omuna Ramblers. An Interesting question to wheelmen arose in the recent Bristol races, and has just been decided by the racing board of the league, A diamond pin was offered as a special prize for the fastest half-mile run in any event, Charles H. Wood, of Hartford, entored the three-mile lap’ race, ran o fast half- mile, and then drew out of the race. By the racing rules, no man can take aprize in alap race unless he finishes tho race. It was claimed under this rule that Wood's half-mile record could not count for the scarf pin, The question was referred to the L. A. W. racing board, who have awarded the pin to Wood, holding that tne special offer was not governed by the gen- eral lap rule. The League of American Wheelmen could do no better piece of work than elect Chief Consul Albert Mott, of Maryland, as presi- dent. In honoring him it "would not ouly houor itself, but gratify a section which has never yet been ropresented in the chief ex- ecutive office. ‘The league would at the sawme time secure a president wh tleman, a scholar of 1 ments, and also a_practical business man of raro exccutive ability, and a worker nl'llll' first class—a combination of qualities found in a0y ono man.
