TLANAGAN WILL BE FIRED. Omaha's Big First Baseman Aoted Very Ugly at Sioux Oity Yesterday. HE VAS FINED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS. Two Games That Were Travesties On Baseball -Billy Trafiley in the Muss— Other Sporting Information. Sloux City, 18-15; Omaha, 4-0, City Sroux City, Ia., Sept. 6.—(Special Tele- gram to Tir Bre.|—A crowd of avout 5,000 witnessed two games between the Sioux City and Omaha teams. The visitors simply wero ot in it. They were totally disorganized. Flanagan and Trafley have been trying to break up the Omaha team and they redoubied their efforts today. Flanagan has always been a disorganizer and made much trouble in the Des Moines club. Yesterday ho was foul-mouthed on the grounds to au extent which disgusted his associates and he was duly roasted in the pajers. This morning Bob Leadloy started to give him his release, but later took him back; but Flana- gan had hardly took his stand on first bag when it became apparent that ho had deliborately resolved to make trouble. He allowed ball after ball to go by him when he*could obviously have stopped them easily. ; Manager Leadly tined him $100 before the game was half played out. This seemed to cool him down somewhat. Trafiley was in the plot with the obstrep- crous trst buseman aud co-oporated witn him. Both conspirators will be reloased probably. Big Morrissey, who has played first base for the Corn Huskers, will supply Flanagan’s place, at least temporarily. Under the circumstances it was utterly impossible for the visitors to play good ball. The remainder of the team worked like Tro- funs, and ut times played well, but they wero thoroughly disorganized. In the second game Kasty Wright had to be put into the box, and his delivery was merely pudding for the Corn Huskers, who were never in better trim for triumphant ball than today. It would only be o weari- ness to the flesh to enter into” the details of the game. A glance at the score is sufficient SI0UX CITY. Denver, Kun AW W 1N PO, AL 8. Swartwood. rf.

End of a Young Man's Efforts to Dis- comfit a Rival, Fred Haller was a surprised young man last night when Detective Kllis tapped him on the shoulderat the Union depotand quistly romarked that he was a prisoner. Haller thought different and struck out for freedom on a dead run with the svrinter of the dectec- tive force after him. Ellis caught up to his man after running a half dozon blocks and gave him a freo ride to the city jail. There he was charged with forgery. ‘There is something of a romance connected with the arrost. For & year and a half Hal- ler has been boarding with Mrs. Gertie Reed at 1617 Chicago street. He fell in love with his fair landlady and was exceedingly jealous. With all his attentions a man named Berger seomed to have tho insido track. and 50 young Haller evolved a schemo to get his hated rival out of the way. He waylaid a couple of letters and learned tho address and doings of Berger's family at Mouiton, Ia. About 2 a. m, Saturday a telegram for Ber- ger was brought to the house saying that Berger's father had met with an accident and was badly hurt. Upon receipt of the message Bergor left at once for home and Haller improved his uf[mrluul!y by gathering up 0 worth of Mrs. Reed’s jowelry and gotting away. Berger camo back about the time the loss of the jewelry was discovered. He and Mrs. Reed mourned therr loss for awhilo and then reported the matter to the police with the above result, Hallor will have to answer to the double charge of larceny and forgery today, T ey MAKING FALSE ENTRIES.

It is expected that another arrest upon the same charge will be made tomorrow. The arrest of Maguire and Ege were made upon afi- aavits sworn out by the government account- ants who have been examining the books of the bank. Late tonight Maguire and Ege were brought before United States Commis- sioner Craig and reloased in £1,000 bail for a hearing on Tuesday.

Ll FRYE AND PROHIBITION, Maine's Senator Says it is the Only Cure for Intemper noe. Lewistox, Me., Sept. 6.-—Senator Frye deliyered an address ata temperance meet- ing here this aftornoon to au immense crowd. He asserted that the prohibitory law wns the only remedy for the evil of intemperance. He also denied that tne habits of KEuropeans tendod to tem- perance, saying France was deteriovating by abscinthe drinking, Italy by oheap and strong liquors, Germauy by brandy, and held that the German emperor was alarmed by the increase of intemperance, and was issuing edicts wending toward a reduction in the growing consumption of svirits, In closing Frye cailed on the mayor aud coanty executive officers to enfore the law, and ended with powerful exhortation 1o the people to stsud by the laws. ——— CALIFORNIA’S 0. 1075, Daring Plan to Escape from Frustratod, Sax Fraxcisco, Cal, Sept. 6.—A daring plot to breas from the state prison at San Quentin has been discovered, and seven loaders, whe were the most desperate among the 1,300 convicts, have been placed in soli- tary cells, It was the ntention to fell the guard with & slung shot as he paised the ocell of one of the leaders. With his keys, all other convicts would be released, the guards in the yard overpowered and esoapo made. The plot was detected by a guard overhaariug certain words that roused his suspicion. ‘The men were watched and gradually the names of the leaders learned. When the crisis was thougnt to be at baod the lenders were quietly arrested and lodged in solitary cells, where thoy are being closely guarded. i et Sinkiog of a French War Ship.

Cincago, 1L, Sept. 6.—A magnificent mi- croscope has just been completod by the Munich Poelier Physical and Optican insti- tute for tho great Chicago exposition, at cost of 83,750, It possesses a magnifying power of 11,000 diametors. As might bo ex- pected, electricity plays an important part in the workmgs of this gigantic insteument, which, after inspection by American citizons, 15 expected to give an impetus to the Muuich mart for scientific apparatus, Tho electricity furrishes and regulates the sourco of light, which placed 1 the focus of a parabolic aluminum reflector reaches an intensity of 11,000 candle power. Tho electricity also provides the means of an ingenious auto matic mechanism for the centering of the quadruple condensers and illuminating tho lenses. There is an arrangement for tho exnct control of the distance of the carbon point. The most important novel feature is the cool- ing machine, which is indispensable on ac- count of the eoxtreme heat, 1-43 calories per socond, generated ~by the intense illuminating arrangomeht. A machino regulaten by a Helmnotz electric cen- trifugal rogulator provides the several mi- croscopic and nolariscopic systems of the apparatus with a fine spray of fluid carbonic acid, which immediately after its releaso from the copper vessel, in which it is held under a pressure of tweaty-thres atmos- pheres, becomes converted into gaseous mat- ter, so intensely cold that ouly .00007 gramme of carbonic acid per second is required to give the result. Thq magniying power of the apparatus with ordinary objectives, as has been stated, is about 11,000 diameters, but with the oil immersion it can be increased to_16,000. Mrs. Potter Palmer has called upon women sculptors to send designs in the form of miniature models of the sculpture work for the women's building. The designs must be delivered to Mr. Palmer’s oftice bufore November 15 next. One is a group of figures in_high reliei to fill the pediment over the main entrance, forty-five feet long at the base line and seven feot in the center. The socond _design_of groups of statuary stan free above the autic cornice, ~resting on the base, five feet long, three faet aecp and two feet hign. sixty fect from the ground. These groups consist of a cen- tral winged figure, standing about ten feet high to the tip of, the wings, and supporied by smaller sittivg figures. The compositions should be typicaliof woman and woman's work in _history. “Each design submitted mplishea by an estimate of cost, zed plaster models, delivered at Jackson park, and the suthoress of the design accepted will recawe the contract for the exccution of these full-sized models. Tho preparation of Colorado’s exhibit is progressing energefically. Besides the min- eral, agricultural and educational exhibits, the flora and faunaof the stats will be shown in great completeness. Already more than 1,000 specimans of plants have been pressed; nearly 200 varieties of fruit have been dupli- cated perfectly in wax, and more than 2,000 species of msects have been mounted. The ‘exas World's Fair Exhibit associa- tion 13 pushing, with great energy, the work of collecting funas for the statos's represen- tation at Chicago. ,The sum desired 1s £300,- 000, and this has been mssesse among the 245 couhities as nearly as po: ible, according to Fo]:uhlllnm on & basis of 15 cents per capita. The association has headquarters at Fort Worth and his dis- tributed a great deal of persuasive literature with excellent results, In one of its circular lettors appears the following: ‘“Texas must not fall to participate in an exhibition cost- ing nearly £50,000,000; one in which every na- tion and commonyveaith in the world wiil be ropresented and where she can show her vast resources to 50,000,000 of visitors, which meaus in five years 1,000,000 new people and £500,000,000 more money to circulate in our state.” An impostor, calling himself **W. Stiassny, of 19 Rue Louis-le-Grand, Paris,” has been engaged in_selling, in Kurope, agencies for the exposition. He sold the agencies for Nor- way and Sweden to a Stockholm man for $2,000. The exposition authorities have taken Steps to put a stop to his operations. No one is authorized to sell ageucies for the ex- position. Heary B. Worthington has offered to fur- nish the exposition, free of charge, pumps with a capacity of 40,000,000 gallons of water a day. ? It has been decided to have the machiuery annex an annex in fact instead of beiug an isolated structure as at first plauned. The annex will adjoin machinery hallon the west. Tne entire structure will thus measure 500 by 1,400 feet, and ve second in size only to the manufactures’ building, the dimensions of which are 788 by 1,685 feot. With its gal- leries the latter building will have forty acres of floor space, Among the exhibits from Southern Cali- fornia will be a model constructed to illus- trate wrrigation. A committee has already been chasen to prepare 1t. A gonius at Mublenberg, Pa,, has com- pleted a marvelous clock for exhibition at the fair. Around the dial is a railway track, on which a miniature locomotive makes the round every five minutes, It requires a magnifving glass to see the delicate machin- ery. The ol cups at the journals are so small that nothing larger than a bawr can be insected. There is a headlizht and bell, flag- holdevs on the pilot, whistle, aud everything conuected with a locomotive. It has a link motion under the engiue to reverso it. The weight of the locomotive is 11 pounds, and 1t has been namwed *“The Gem.” Mcre than $150,000 was paid into the ex- position trousury, on stock subscriptions, on August i1, and ‘for a week or more previous the receipts ran from 830,000 to $75,000 daily. Tho exposition directors, some time ago, offered ono ticket for eacn share paid up be- fore September 1, and many Lave accepted the proffer.

Tho disordor here is affecting ull classes alike and the Dbest und most refined people aro among the suffer- ers. It is tracod to the imported Ttalian laborors, who have recently been em- ployed in this neighborhood, and has spread both up and down tho line of the Philadelphia & Reading railroad and along tho line of the new Trenton cut-off from Morrisville to Glonloch. Wherever these Italans have been they have left this trail of annoyance and suffering behind them. * Notes and coin aro said to be the most frequent medium for its transmission, fitst from the Italians to tho shopkeepers and then to the peoplo gon. orally.

The spirits absorbed into the wood would add to the weight of the packages, so the commissionor has requested distillers | throughout the country to assist kis office in ' arriving at some conclusion as o the average wmount of spirits that will be absorbed, and it is probablo that a deauction will be mado from the gross weightof packages on this account, 1t is necessary 10 know the strength of the spirits as well as their weight, so toat it will be impracticable to ascertain the quantity of spirits in & package by this mothod where' any considerablo quantity of saccharine material hus been added, for the reason that the strength of the spirits cannot be detormined after such addition, and the old method must then be used. The present system is rogarded s undesirable for the reason that it only approaches accuracy when the casks ate made in regulur form and the inside surfaces completely smooth. CUT HIS THROAT.
