Lovers of the national game in Lincoln rejoice over this fact, and the gentlemen who have been putting up money for the maintenance of the club will see that the club pulls through all right, and will be given every encouragement to win tho pol nant. 1hose gentlemen met last ovening and decided first and foremost that Dave Rowe must be dispensed with, Ho has already so- cured about #5000 from a few of these local lovers of the game, and these gentlemen nave now hope of getting tueir monoy back again. One gentleman, a banker from whom Rowe horrowed £00, offered a short timo since to mako a present of $300 of the amount to tho club, provided 200 was re turned. Dave had the money, and ho simply “winked the other eye' una kept it. Considerublo of the money loaned Rowe was for the purpose of helping him pay oft salaries of the players, but the latter declaro that they huvo recoived no salary for nearly seven wecks. It is belioved that the 5,000 Dave got from the kindly disposed business men reposes peacofully in his capacious pockots. At the meeting last evening it was decided by the business men interested to select Mr, Littie, superintendent of the street railway, as manager of the club, It was decided als to reduco salaries, Today the membors of the sent word to the board of manage were willing to stand a_cut_in_salaries in order that thoy might retain their positions.

MixxearoLis, Minn., Aug. 19.—[Special Telogram to Tk Bei.]—The Western ass ciation held a short meeting this ening, but nothing was dono excent to ratify the salo of tho Minueapolis team to Dave Rowe. Mr. Rowe purchased the team and franchise of Hy. L. Hach for £,00) this morning. This does not, however, transfer the Lincoln toam ta Minueapolis. A telegram from Lincoln announced that Mr. Little. owner of a ma- Jority of the Lincoln stock, would keop tho tenm in the ficld the remainder of the scason. It will, therefore, be necessary to throw out 50mo other club, Manager Watkins snid this evening the vic- tim would be Duluth. The citizes of Duluth, he said, had failod to raiso the 3,000 to pay the plavers' buck salaries for thirty uays, and the club would have to go to the wall, Mr. Watkins has arranged to transfer six of his players to the new Miuncapolis team, most of the players of which have deserted during tho pust weel. At the meeting tomorrow morning, after the aroppiug of Dulnth, u new schedule will be made out, giving each club_twenty games with each of its opponents. All the zames played are to be wiped out and the six clubs will begin the new season of six weeks on an equal footing. WEST Downed O Ninth Iy DEXVER, Colo., Aug.

Many Fx to the cesstul iting ord of cond and witonal As- with Wasmixatox, Aug. 19.—Tho last dny of the regattaof tho sociation of Amateur Oarsmen opencd good weather, smooth water, & clear course and everything essential to good racing. The interest today was intensified by the fact that it was the last day of the regatta, and the finals in the junior and senior singles wers to bo rowed as well as the eight-onr burge contest betwoen the champion crews of the erack clubs of the country. The main fe and in which the most interest was contered was tho last on the programme the eight-oared race by the alantas, Varunas, Fairmounts ana Columbias, "This was the most exciting raco of the day. I'ne finishing was intensely interesting and the time made shows that all crows spurted from the boginning to theend. No amateur record was broken, but the time was good and the oarsmen say the meeting was the most suc- cessful over held. In the final heat in the senior Catfrey of tho Lawrence club of chusetts lowered his own provious made last summer, by seven seconds, it apparently without much effort Some Very Nice Rncing. The first race, the junior singles, started promptly with' four starters, Floming and Price, Crescent_club, of Bostou, Wright of Toronto, and Berry of tho Passaic club, Wright led easily ali the way, fimshing win- ner by six lengths from Berry, second. Time: 10:16 1 second, 102 Thero were five starters in the race for the pair of oars: Ono from the Argonaut club of Torouto, two from the Atalanta club of Now York and two from the New York club. At the word to go the five crews took the water simultaneously, the Atalantas and Argonauts in the lead.’ The Dempsey Broth- ors (Atalantas) then set the paco and led out by a length which they maintained to the cind, with tho Argonauts a close second. Time: 10:12. Four crews were in the race for the four- oared jubiors: Arfington of Massachusetts, Neptune club of Baltimore, Ariel club of Baltimore and the Potomac club of Washing- ton. All wot off well together, and for the first quarter the line of shells was unbroken excopt, for an instant or two when one club would forgo uhead, only to drop back again and resume its old position. At the milo tho boats were within one length of b other, and all going very fast, the Arlingtons leading, with the Ariel club of Baltimore close up. ‘The Arlingtons tried hard to shake off the Baltimore boys, but they hung out tenaciously. At thomile and a quarter, how- over, the Atlingtons opened up- tho distanco on the Aricls and soon nad two boat lengths between tiem. The Neptunes now braced up, came up fast and closed on the Aricls, and in the last quarter it looked very much as if thoy would land winner, but the Ariels kept on and camo over the line three lengths be- biod the Arlingrons, and two lengths ahead of tho Neptunes, Potomac last. Time: 9:11 for the winner and 9:23 for tho second buat. Three Men of Muscle. The senior singles brought three men to the start, all very fast, Higgins, Caffrey and Hedloy, each one of whom won in their re- spective heats yesterday. Caffrey went off rst, but Hedloy spurted and soon had him on even terms. * All the men were pulling well and 1n their own water, Caffrey leadiug at tho half by a clear tength, with Hediov crawling upand making the 'Lawrence man pull the race of his life. This continued dur- ing tne nexw quarter, their relative positions remaining unchanged, with Higginy back the rear. Hedley spurted in the last bhalf, while Higgins made. a daring spurt in the stretch and Janded “second. Hedley falling back. Time for the wiuner, 10:03; for secoud, 10:0 The next race was the finals in the double sculis. Four crews started: The Catlins of Chicago, Albanys of New York, Vespers of Philadelphia and Varunas of Brooklyn, The Albauys made a wood start, steerig well and holding their course n good shape, the Cat- lins immediately dropping behind,'while the Varunas and Vespors weut after the Albany men. The Albanys set a lively pace, howove and_ clearly outelassed their opponents from the start, apparently fecling contident that they were out of the race. ‘i'he Vespers soon wont wild and before thoy could rogain their course the Varunas’ shell hud & lead on them. Ihey wore not dis- couraged by this move, aud soon had tho Varunw's crew aveam' and were well on the course, stecring easy and rowing a was- terful stroke, full of snup and again recov- ered second place, which they beld to the finish. The pace was too hot for all save the Chicago lads,who continued to fall hopelessly behind, and with the exception of this it was the fingst race of the day. Tho Albanys wore never headed, Vespors secord, Varunas third aud the Catlins well to the rear. Time: 5:37. Race of the Day. The racing closod with an_eight oared raco by the crews of the New York Athletic club, the Atalantas.the Fairmounts and Columbias of Washington. Much interest was shown in this race by overyone. The champion Ata- lautas bad practiclly the crew that won last year. The start wis made prompily, with the umpire’s boat well oohind in a vain eu- deavor to keep up with the procession. Atalan- ta led by half a leugth in twenty strokes and rmount was ou even terms. The Colum- bias caught a crab and fell off, At the first balf tho Atalantas stili led with the New Yorkers plessing thom hard. At the mile there was no ctange excopt that the local crew had cut down tho distance bo- tween it and the leaders by somo lengths and was pulling a strong, oven stroke. All tha crows journeyed on without changing posi- tions till in the last quarter, when tho New York crew made a spurt aud by magnificent rowing crawled up on the leadors and crossed the line in front of the Atalantas, Columbia third and Fairmount in the van. ‘ime: singles Massa- record, and did Breeders Have Good Weather and 1e Racing at Chicago. , Aug. 19.—Weather was plensant and the track fast for the third day of tho Northwestorn Breeders association’s meet- ing at Washington park.
