He in turn eave way to Loantaka, who piloted the field into the stretch, “Now they aro in the streteh," shouted the crowd, and then the race began in earnest The jockeys were swaying toand fro on their horses, ana some of them were aiready ply- ing whip and spur. Loantaka soon gave up, and Tenny showed in_front, closely pressed by Judge Morrow, who had been in the rut for a mile, with Burlington, Fon, Prioce Royal and ‘lon Tray. Horses and jockeys both seemed to think that the crisis had ar- rived, and all gathered themsclves together for a'final effort Amid the flash of red and blue and gold and yellow could be scen the gloamiog black face of Pikey Barnes. It wasa_pieture in ebony set in gaudy colors, The little jockey was riding ns he never rode before. He seemed 1o It hiurself above his horse and try to push the great swayback along a little faster. Down the stretch they are coming now. The fonming nostrils, the flashing eyes of the horses could be seen, Teany, Tea Tray, Prince Royal and Judge Morrow were all in a bunch and the spectators hela their breath, Then 50,000 voices mingled in one long shont Barnes realized thay the critical moment had come. Whe nes Took the Whip, Three-sixteenths from the finish Barnes went 1o the whipand for the fraction of a second the favorite faltered. The cry, and a despairing cry it was, wentup “Tenuy is beaten.” It did look like it, but the game little swayback responded bly with neaving ides and distended nostrils he came b 1 picen of perfect mechanism, rapidly g ground at every st The race was not yet his, bowever, for Garrison was whipping like a demon Prince Royal, fairly lifting him over the ground, and Tea Tray was rapidly moving up from tho reor. The excitement was intense. FHats, bon- nets, handkerchiefs, umbrellas and parasols were thrown into the ir and cries of “Tenny, Tenny,” “Prince [RRoyal wins,” “Come on, Tea Tray,” were heard on all sidos. Itwas a grand struggle, but Tenny held his antagonists safe, and bounding like an India eubber ball passed the finish two good lengths in front of Prince Royal, who b Ten Tray u short head for second movey. A grini of delight sproad over the face of Pikey Barnes as ho glanced back over his shoulder and realized that the race was won. The time, 2:10, was nothing out of tk common, but it was a grand race and men, women and children, perfect strangers to each other, shook hands and swore that there was nothing iu the world they compared to a first class horse race, Barnes, who rode the winner, was placed in a floral horseshoe atter he had weighod out and carried to the dressing rooms.

Halligan took a base on balls, Sut- ife and Twitchell foliowed with_singles, Griffin put in a three-bagger and Walsh a single, the latter stealing second. Donnelly received a base for waiting, and McCauley's hit to center scored the eighth man. The fielding foature was a_one-hand_catch of atine fly by O'Brien. “Dad Clarke” was hit very hard in th ly innings and Twitchell took his place in the fourth, Sutcliffe going to left field and Traffloy be. hind the bat, The sgeneral fielding of tho visitors was very ‘yeilow.” The Apostles made le errors, but they were more costly, Mana Watkins doesn’t know whether to_stength up, disband or sell his franchise to Duluth He is handicapped by the lack of money, and his daily receipts at the gate do uot average 0.

The Corn Huskers really put up the botter game and deserved t win, but the fickle goddess of luck was on hand to play scurvy tricks. Especiaily she in the field to hielp the Farmers out of numerous rank evrors. With men on bases Gienins and Earlo and others made corking hits which ought to have been productive, but they went straight into o Farmer's paws. Cenins smashed a ball that ought to have been good for thres bases, but it struck second bag and staid there' like a bandful of mush. However, luck doesn't count The Farmers made three of their runs in the second inning. Tomney got his base or balls, Stafford hit for threc bugs, and scoved Tomney. Rogers went out at first. O'Day hit safe und scored Stafford. Cliue flew out to Swartwood. Raymond got a_base on balls, So did Jack Rowe. So did Burkett, crowding in O'Day. Then Dave Rowe flew out to Swartwood. The other run was made by Lincoln in the sixth inuing. After Tomney struck outStaf- ford got @ base on balls, Rogers fouled out, but O'Day hit safe and scored Stafford. "Then Raymond died at _first after Cline had got his life by Poorman’s error. “Thus the Farmers had a lead of one at, thoe end of the sixth inning. The Corn Huskers made desperate efforts in the remaining three iunings to retrieve their fortunes, but O'Day became more cffective in the box as the game advanced, and the Lincolnites ceased committing so numerous crros It was useless.

There was chicken and other victuals in the basket, Ouce ortwice there was i bottle of | porter. Walstronf gnd 1 used to oat and arink these things together. Mrs. Sheedy never gave me anvthing like that to take to my room when I was rooming alone. During this rocal#one of Mrs, Sheedy's sisters looked at lmn inquiringly. As the witness continued look developed grad- ually from one of interrogation to one of sur- prise and_then to ono strongly resembling disgust. The witness then continued: “Two or three days after Mr. Sheedy was buried T carried a package of some soft ma- terial from Mr. Walstrom to Mrs. Snoedy. The day Mr. Sheedy died Mrs, Sheedy told me to tell Mr. Walstrom to bo sure and be at the funeral or sho would not think anythiog of him." Great dificulty was experienced by the attorneys for the prosecution in getting these facts out of the witness. Suddenly Mr. Hall asked the witness: ““Hasn't Mr. Strode, the attorney for Mrs, Sheedy, had you up in his office!’” The witness colored up, hesitated and fin- ally said “Yes, s, But little more was gotten out of the wit- ness concerning that visit except that Mr. Strode had him read over his testimony at the preliminary examination. Mr. Hall then asked “Have you been up to see Mrs, Sheedy at the jail lately 1" “Yos, sir," was the reply. “How many times " “Tywice." *:Who took you to the jail each time?’ “Mr. Strode and Mrs, Dean, sister of Mrs, Sheedy.” Nothing more could be witness as to what was said at these visits. 1n repl witness said : *The afternoon of the day that Mr. Sheody died Mrs. Sheedy told me to tell Walstrom that she was afraid Mr. Sheedy was going to die. One day last summer when 1 was at the Sheedy residence Mrs. Sheedy came into the house crying. She said she wanted to get a divorco from Mr. Sheedy be- cause she couldn’t et along with him. ~She said that hor husband was joalous of her.” It required about ten minutes to get this last statement out of the witness. Mr. Hall then asked : “Didu’t Mrs. Steedy tell you that she thought a great deal of Walstrom 1! learned from the the time of v to other questions the Mr. Strode Mrs. Sheedy's counsel, ob- jected that it was a leading question. Ther. Mr. Hall arose and addressed the court. He declared that the manner of the witness was sufliciont to indicate that he was under the influence of the defense and that the only way to got any testimony out of him was to ask him leading questior The judge ac- quicsced and admitted that under the cir cumstances such questions were necessary, The witness then answered *Yes, Mr. H; I then asked dy say to Walstrom that that shie would come up Didn't Mrs. She if ever he got § and nurse him Objected to and vhjection overruled. Witnessed answeidit Yos," As 50 much dififehlty had been experienced in getting importatit testimony out of the witness, Mr. Hall tharefore asked permission to discontinue the éxtmination of the witness until he could seegre his copy of the testi- mony of the witness it the vreliminary ex- amination, as Strode wad the other attorneys for the defense objeeted to his using theirs. Philpot, attorney' for the negro, objected to -examining theltvitness until the prose- cution got through with the examination of the witness. A‘lotigsquabble ensued, dur- ing which the witiiess was excused, but as he was leaviog the rom he was suddenly called back and again put on the stand. Mr. Strode, coutisel for Mrs. Sheedy, demanded of the witnes ““Johnny, weren*t ¥ou kept a _prisoner for ten days “because they thought vou knew more!” Didu't they,try to make you tell lios !

Then Hall took the witness and asked him if be had ever veluuteered any information of any kind to the prosecution’ to which he replied: *No, sir, [ didn’t wish to be a witness,” ““When first approached by Malone did you tell him anything about carrying notes *No, sir, T didn’t.” tell Malone anything about carrying notes and catables bick and forth from Mrs, Sheedy. T dido’t propose to tell anything he dicn't ask me about.
