e e JACKEROSTSPURS THE SPORTS And Starts the Usual Baze Ball Fairy Tales Abroad, PLEASING INFORMATION FOR THE GUNNERS Breezy Budget for the Bykers—Ladics Who Shoot and ¥ sh — Local Sporting Squibs and Ques tions Answered. ITH tho coming of Old Crimp bo pre- pared for base ball fairy tales. Thero aro already several wild-pyed sensa. tlons afloat concorn ing the possiblo ex- of a wost. or istence ern leaguo for 1892, and as the winter waxos they will thicken that will keep the the outcome. The association and multiply in a way orank guessing as to sohomo that includes I Omaha, Des Moines, Sioux City, Kansas City, St. Jos, Leavenworth and Wichita, 1s and egregious fako. St. Joo, Leavenworth, Des Moines and Wicnita have boen rubbed off the maps, 80 far s professional base ball is concerned, forever and ayo. Lincoln is practically in the samo boat, and Sioux City nhas seen her palmy days. Kansas City and Omaha, how- ever, arc suro to be “in it" again, all adverso criticisii to the contrary notwithstanding. The Missouri capital is one of the best baso ball cities in_the country, aud will be prop- erly cared for under any and all cir- cumstances, And Omaha, while it 1s not, mnoc mney has been, & good ball town, is too large and too metropoiitan to be for any considerable period without cilities for” indulging in the eceat national pastime. Sho may take n rest fora year, and the process would undoubtedly result in much good, but under any condition of things sho is just as certain to again tuke a promi- pent position in the affairs of the sport somo time in the future as the sun is to rise. One reason why Omaha has never panned out as a profitable site for the gama is because, with the exception of a.single year, sho has been utterly devoid of competent management, ‘With the right stripe of men, men of intelli- ence and ability, in charge, the city could e made even a bettor base ball town than Kansus City or Denver. There is every fa- cility hero for such a condition of things. the ‘poputation, the inherent interest in tho great sport and a dearth of other summer di- vertisciients which must be made up for in some way, and that way is through the chan- nels of base ball. Such a day is sure to come: it may not._bo this coming yoar, or the next, but will ot be delayed much longer. Restoration of the Quail. HIS has been one of tho most favorable scasons for quail known in this saction of the state for a good muny years, and the prospects for groat sport a month hence aro oxcellent. This is undoubtedly joyous news to the sports- man, for the restora- tlon of this incomparable httle gamo bird fn sulcient numbers to onco moro fnsurc a profitable tramp afleld has been a thing undreamed of. For a half dozou years in this particular region this precious feathorod beauty has b een con sidered all but extinct, not on account of any ruthless or wonton slanghter on tho part of gunners, but owing to the killing weather of the winters of '86 und '87. Once Bob Whito throve here as_prolifically us anvwhero in tho world, but he has been on the declino for even as great a period as ten years until he reachod a degree of attenuation that actually threatened nis total disappesranc Up to within two years, siuce when the birds have beon perceptibly recuperating, there was o wencral complaint among the bon vivants of tho city that there were doad loads of toast lying round loose without the suggestion of a feather upon it. But the gormet will have no cause to grumble this fall, for, from the indications, ns carly as this, 1t will bo no trick for the skillful shot to go almost anywhere without the city limits ana knock over his dozer or soof birds in an aftoruoon’s shooting. 1 will not undertake to explain what has brought sbout this gratifying condition of thwygs, suftice it to say, that the past_two or threo seasons have been almost perfect for mdification and hatehing purposes. Ono continuous spell of oxquisitely lovely weather,neither to hot now too cold, nnd with no iong drouths or ex- cessive wot poriods, but a uniform terapera- ture and general ‘meteorological condition especinlly caleulatod for fecundity in tho biras. ‘I'hut thoy did not allow the golden opportunity to pass unimproved is attested to fn an emphatic way by the frequency of tho @vics to ba mei with in thoe stubble and along tho roadside this fall. Any oue who hins mado long drives in uny direction through the summer will recall with a sensa- tion of delizht how frequently they espied an old hen rolling in the dust in_the road, or tho old cock, with his white striped head and graceful cutves of scal perched upon the top of this old rail or that, serenading his mate, nestled on her dozen or so of exgs off thers fn wheat field or meadow, with his sweot but plaintive, “Bob—Iob White!" On the breath of early morn From lush meadows upward borne, Whore thro' dowy tears the erocus coyly smiles in Chaste delight, And the jowelled daisies glisten As they bend their heads to listen — Comes the clear and plaintive music of thy matin: “Bob—Bob White!" Bur all too soon the summer fades And thro' all the leaf-strewn glads Harass'd shalt thou scek in moment vain for a Ol respito. Naught beforo tue leaden hail Bhall thy hurtling flight avail— Stilied beneath the murd’'rous thunders is thy piteous walt “Bob White!" faggioli to Mons. Hatley. Anent the much-talked-of billiard match botween I'rancis Maggioli of this city and ‘Will I. Hatloy of St. Paul, the Globe of the latter has this to say “It seoms that Francis Maggioli, the bili- fardist, is indulging one of tho caprices for which he is noted, Yesterday Will I, Hatloy recoived aletter in reply ta his offer to play Maggioli two fourteen-uich balk line matches, one in St. Paul and one in Omaba, for from #100 to #20 & side each game. T'his reply 13 both and a disappointment, It is a surprise in that a player of fagggioli's roputation should refuse to eoter nto coutests with player he claims ho can dofeat at any style of villiards, and ospecially considering tho fact the terms were Maggioli’s with the excoption of the propos tion of pooling the monoy into a purse. tlat- Loy simply refused to play in such a charity way. He refuses to allow his friends to raiso & purse to play for, becauso it is not profes- sional. Fatley's proposition was to make the matohes for stakes, as is done iu all honorable and “straight” matches. Magggioll was supposed to be eager to zet on matches with any one he thought he could yanquish, aud_what the trouble is with this former New Orleans champion is a problom Cau it be that ho has degenerated intoa purse player liko the old seiling platers of the traci, or does b want the best of his friends that are backiug him! It had been hoped that theso matches would be arranged, for St. Paul has never secu a match between two such knights of the cue. A cali was made on Mr. Maggioli at the Millard billiard ball yesterday, and he was both astouished sud indignant at the roast in the Globe, “Why," said Maggioli,” I have never re. fusod to play Hatley, but instead hava been Buxious to meet him on any terms, My ides fu waking the two matches for & purse of K300, iustead of $125 in stakes u side, was swply in the interests of himself and'I, us auder such an arrangewent the winuer would Rot tho wholo money, which would make the matches worth while, In a stuke watch such as he proposed, there would be nothing in it for either of us, 68 our oxpenses in exchanging visits would be fully &5 apiece, and you sce what that would leave, But their is nothing to be gained by senseloss badinage. 1t Mr, Hatloy eannot sce the feasibility of a purse, I will play him for stakes, the amount to be mutu- ally agreed upon, but I will play him it it is oniy for a § note. 1 want Mr. Ha ley's frionds to know that I have never tbeen known to avoid a billlard match for money, ana all my delay was only occasioned by my dasiro to make the mducomont suMficient for tho trouble of these two matches, You can inform Mr. Hatloy to crack away—I'm They Can Shoot and Fiah. As 18 well known, Judge John M. Thurston i3 an ardent sportsman and lover of nature, and not a year passes but what ho makes one or more trips to distant lands in quest of fur, fin or fonther. Ho is well versed in the loro of forest and stream, fleld and lake, and handles rifle, rod or oar with a dexterity equal tothe best of them. And the judge does not have to indulge in his outdoor pas- times alone, Mrs, Thurston, herself, is a lover of the picturesquo scenes and healthglving air of prairie, woods aud mountain, ' Like Thor, and her better half, too, sho secs beauty in tho naked plai, the rugged rock or be uded sky. It doesn't requirothe sunshine 10 pick out the sprouts and tendrils and all the thousand and one graces of mature for her roverent eyo. And thus 1t is the judge has a most,_congeninl companion on many of his pilgrimages to the realms of enjoyment and coutent of the wild woods and wateas. Mrs Thurston can “cast a fly,” and handle the rod, with a skill little Inferior to that of the judge himself, and many is the trout she has Ianded, in hissplended blazonry, on the tufted shores of Minnesota’s fair stroams. The penchant for these things is as commendablo in woman as it is in man. 1t brings its un- tola benotits, 1ts countiess joys, as continunl s the Bobolink's merry lilt tinkles over the June meadows, ‘There is another Omaha lady, too, who, be- sidos being the belle of the town, is not only fond of, but au fait in many of the divertisements erroneously supposed to belong exclusively to tho sterner sex, Mrs, “Skip” Dundy., She, too, nas an enthusiastic sportsman for a husband,who has pampered to her inclinations for heaith- ful exercise in the open air. Mrs. Dundy is really a versatile porson. She can ride a horse like a Val Jean, row a boat, swim, shoot and_ fish with ' dogroo of adroitness that should be envied by thousands of malo pretenders, Pranks of the Gang. Bob Leadley, managor of tho Omaha ball toam, has had a variogated experience during his brief reign here. Ho took hold of the affairs of the club when thoy were in all but achaotic condition, organized a new team out of such material as was available, and has mado as good n showing under the cir- cumstances as any man in the country could have done. Sinco Bob's advent, however, the Western association has been littlo bet- ter than a howling farce, and it required a vast amount of tact and strategy for him to keep his men in line. Nonaof them had the lightest faith in oy considerable contin- uance of the club, their salaries were in arrears and their hearts were not in their work. They all had an abiding faith in Manager Bob, however, as their coutinued allegiance testifies; still they couldn’s forogo the pleasure of equalizing things with Bob for his repeated assurances of the near ap- proach of pay da; “Well," said the gonial manager, in a joc- ular way, “the gang bas made life’a burden for me during tho past threo weoks. [ couldn’t gev hold of a bill of fare atany hotel, try bard as I might, without being starod in the face by & menu something like this: sour. Mock Salary, s Turned Over Croquettes, REE, Shannon's Lamb Chops. Law Releasc arded Contracts. Suckers, ROAST. Salmi of Beefs, A la Bleachers, Roman Punch—In the Ear. GaM, Soven-Up, DESERT. Wind Pudding. Poker, Craps. Snorts of the Charlie Horse. The Western association has developed 10to a howling fake. Kid Baldwin is catching for Spokane, and Charlie Abbey is with Tacoma. Billy Moran, with Omaba last season, has been captured by the St. Louis Browns. Thero is many a vacant ball park today that teemed with life and hilarity a couple months ago. The Kaunsas City club has tried only seven- teen pitchers this season, so far, bui hasn’t struck a winner yot. “Red” O'Rourke has made the Columbus, O.,cranks fopgot there ever was a third base- man, yelept Prof. Dounelly. Joe Walsh, contrary to expectations, con - tinues his great work at Baltimore. He is on the second bag, and is playing it like a Dunlap. Dave Rowe will probably winter tn Lincoln, and he thinks, with that £3,000, he can man: ago to keep tho wolf a respectable distance from the door. Jue Quinu can make up his mind that this is bis list yearwith the Boston leaguo team, Ho 1sn’t playing tho gume he pat up last year by a long shot. v Halligan is o rattling good hitter, but a very dizzy outfielder. He plays with a big mitt, but'arops flies with unérring regular- ity. —So says Mike Lano. Bob Emslie, who jumped the Western as- sociation umpire staff for the American, has been roasted so thorougnly that the cranks out hero wouldn't recognize him, Ely, late of Duluth, is doing great work for Brooklyn. He said he couldn’t play bull ina city where the umpire had to sweep the snow off the home plate every timo a man went o bat. About tho only man of the old Omahas playing any sori of ball is “Old Cy" Sut- cliffe, and it is only his stick work that saves him. ' Even reliable Deacon Gritin has fallen into disrepute, Old league players say that Patsoy Tebeau, who took his early lesso Western association, can block o baso ner and get away with it better than man playing ball today. How many clubs of all the numerous base ball organizations that started out with such a tlourish in the spring will be able to show a single dollar on tho right side of the ledger when the season is donet Tho Washiugton papers say there suspicion thero that™ Papa McCauley's feet are not mates, and that when he and <Ol Cy" Sutcliffa get on the bases at the same time, it is a picture caleulated to make strong men weep. It isthis kind of entorprising base ball items that makes the average Omahog imag- ine he is still on earth; Anson has a striug tied to young Nicol's release. Ho goes to Omaha for $250 4 mouth, but returns to An- son at tho end of the season.—New York World, Somo of the papers that advised tho asso- ciation to break away from the Nationul agrooment last spring are begnuing to ery for peace. ‘Tho association people begin to acknowledgo that they cannot discinline their playors as loug as they coutinue to wagoe war inst the League. Jimmy Canavan haa several offors after Cluciuati threw up the sponge, but he pro- fecred going to Milwaukeo with Baucroft, It will be a heart-breaker of a blow for Jimay if Milwaukeo reloases Baucroft, which now seems probable,. Cush offers to work for aothing, if Gillette will ouly keep him, and as Gilly is hard up, Banney” will have to £0. You see Cannvan stuck to Bancroft be- cause Bancroft pays bim a uice salary for playing polo in the winter, Base ball 1s deader than tho deadest in Des Moines. In spite of our beautiful grounds, Athletic park-—said to be the best in the west we have nothing that even approaches a nine, even the ity league bas decayed and by this time has had time to petrify. Siuce our men, the good old nine of 1888, won tho pounant, Des Moines has gradually lost its intorest in tho beloved game and now, now, it almost makes people weep to think of the prospeots. —The kegister. The Washington Star says that Shaonon is on a still hunt for players and has bis uet out for some good oues for next year. This is sayiug 8 good deal for the men he induced to desert this city, Washiugton will find, how- Boli- in the run- any is a 'HE OMAHA DAILY BEE, influence with to ovor, that Shannon has no players outside of the gang he brought Omaha, He has not the slightest ¢ mauagerial ability, s only a fifth rate player himself, and it 18 dollars to mud, he don’t manago the senatorial team another season, There is sore trouble in the groat city of Milwaukee. You seo Prasident Gillotte and Gilly has a head on him that would mako a good door knob—went down into tho capa: cious depths of his inside pocket to get into the American association, and now thoe other stockholders are all up on their hind logs and roaring liko a covey of Bumidian lions, sim- ply because Gilly says they must raise §10,- 000 more to enable him to carry his old west- ern association gung througl tho season They say they'll bo hanged first. Whisperings of the Wheel, Holdrege has a wheel club of twenty mem- bers, Omaha Whe morning and the Tourlsts to Missourl ov. DPotter, Denman and Kastman of the Tour- ist Wheelman will leaye for Peorin Wednos- day evening. Big, good natured Charley Candy, who is a favorite with the Omaha _cycling public in goneral and the Omuha Whoel club boys in particular, became a Benedict on Septembver i, at Philadolphia. Tageer, Fleshor and Boindorf pedaled down to Glenwood, Ia.,Sunday morning. O. L. Colby and B. L. Porterfiold rodo to Lin- coln, remaining over Monday and Tuesday and taking in the fair., A Philadelphia girl recontly finished a cen- tury road spin in fourteen hours and wwonty- two minutes, Protty good timo for even some of our hard roadsters, but romarkable for ono of tho fair sex. W. H. Head has sold his ordinary and tho active ranis of the Omaha Whoel club feel despondent. Billy will buy a safety now and join the “chinin gang,” or perhaps it will bo & horse and buggy—wlio knows! Pixley and Mockett will endeavor to make some of the “*boys” at Peoria fecl tired dur- ing the tournament. Mockett has rented a special car for his medals and Pixley will carry bis “fainting spell’” in & valise, Iastern cycling clubs aro dabbling in baso ball of late.” T'he Press Cycling club and tho Ramblers' Bi club, both of Buffalo, New Yorlk, recently played o game,which resulted in a score of 1'to 0 in favor of the former. At race moots on tho “other sido of tho pond,” it is quite the fad to ransack the clothing of the cyclist whilo he is on the track. A Boston paper says: *Woe don't do that way over nere. No! wesimply take tho ‘whole shooting match. Lieutenant Morris and King Donman of the Tourists broko the Bellevue road rocord Sunday morning, lowering it 10 4115 minutes. Thoy claim that they can do the distance down in even less than that. Morris rodo the return trip without a pacomaker in 477 minutes. "T'was quite a comical sight to the pedestri- ans along Sixteenth street one cvening of last week when a cyclist appoared leading a horso by a halter strapand threading his way skillfully in and out among the carriages and other vehicles waich crowd the thorough- fare. The horse was *‘onto the job” and held his nose down to the rear whepl of the ma- chine, nmever swerving 10 ono sido or the ortier'and assisting the xidor as much as pos- sible. Last Saturday evening, tho 5th inst., oc- curred the reghlar election of officers for the Tourist Wheslmen. The election was quietly eugincered and no wire pulling indulged i, “Tho candidates wero in perfect harmony with the voters and slipped 11 as easy as_can be The officers, as elected for the ensuing term’ ure: J. H. Kastman, president; John Kelloy' vice president (second term); 5. R. Smith secreiary and treasurer; Harry K. Smith captain (sccond term). ' Subaltern officers : W.J. Morris, first lieutenant; George I Waldren, second iicutenaut; King Denman, color guide; T. W. Collins, bugler. After the meeting the reticing ofticers invited the club out to @ little spread at an uptown res- taurant, The big joint run under the aus pices of the Omaba Wheel club last Sunday was a grand and brilliant success. Tho turn out was large and spoke volumes for the popularity of the club's road oficers. Omaha Viheel club, Tourists, Big Three team and roprosentatives from other clubs mingled togetuer in one harmonious crowd. The run was to Bellevue, which place was reached about 9:20. A short rest at the “littlo whito house” (kuown by every hungry wheelman for miles around), during which time the commissary wagon rumbled up, under tho escort of Messrs. Clark and Perfect. The cntire party then climed tho wooded hills to the riflo range, here the wheels were stacked and a diamond marked off upon the green sward of the pa- rade. Two nines took possession of the dia- mond and the hottest game of ball waged for two hours and a half that has over been re- corded in tho annals of Omaha amateur base ball. The opposing giants were the Omaha Wheel club and tho Tourist wheelmen, Townsend and Epeneter formed the battery for tho former while Taylor, Smith aund Kelley performed the same oftico for the lat- ter. Umpires were changed after each in- ning or 50 until the king umpire in the per- son of Chief Consul Perrigo loomed in sight, then it was “play bull” in dead earncst. The scoro was tied in the soventh inning and would have remained so for ever if a stroak of luck had not struck tho Tourists in the last inning aad two scores won thom the game. Below is the score by innings: OW.C0 4102010000000 0-8 T.W.4 1020110000000 210 Tho batting was quito freo on both sides and then at times tho game resembled a pitcher’s battle. Irrors were as plentiful as grusshoppers in summer time, yot fow of them were costly. At the cenclusion of the came the hot, dusty, tired and hungry cy- clists sat down toa plentiful old fashionéa dinzer—and the dinner faded away. T'wo games wero played after ainner, the scores of which were 12 to 7 and 5 to 4 favor- ing tho Omaha Wheel club, At dusk the merry eyclists returned to tho city each and all well satisfied with the day’s outing, The Davis-Woods Battle.

THEELKS' ANNUAL CLAM BAKE An 0ld-Fashioned Pionic on the Bauks of Pries' Lake, THE TALLEST BUILDING IN THE WORLD. Chicago Odd Fellows Will E Modern Tower of Babel for a Pem- ple—News and Notes Among the Woodmen. et a Threo tally-hos loaded with Elks and their friends mado the welkin ring as thoy started from the club room at the Continental block at 1:30 Monaay afternoon, en route to Prios lako to hold the annual clam-bake, Out Sixteonth street and Sherman avenue to Wirt, thenco via Twenty-fourth, Spauld- ing and Thirtieth stroets past the fort, through Florence and over the hill to the lake swung the tally-hos with their loads of Jovial Elks, the Bost Peopts On Earth, followed by several carriages containiag moro Elks. Their approach was heralded by innumerablo blasts by stentorian lungs on numerous tin hornagintermingled with cheers and blood- curdling yolls. In the languageof the stump speaker, the routo was marked by continuous ovations, people rushing from all divections to seo the procession, and waving hats, aprons or anything that came handy. Arrived at the lake a force of cooks was found under the direction of Lew Franklin, tae well known court bailiff of Lincoln, and Ed. Allen, tho ex-toputy marshal. Prof. Franklin is & “down-oaster’” and was duly imtiated, in_ his early days, into tho mys- teries of a Rbode Islaud clam-buke. Prof. Allen also camo _from ‘the lana of clams and the result of his artistio handiwork was shown in the tootnsome chowder. As soon as the party arrived preparations were at onco made to coolk the feast. Messrs, Fraukhn and Allen and; pheir assistants had been on the grounds all day. They had made an excavation about fx§ feet and one foot deep, and this hed been filled with large stones laid so as to prasent an even surface, On tuese a huge fire of logs had been built aud kept burning until the stones were white hot. Thoy had reached thid jtage when the pic- nic party arrived and the' bod of stones was at obeo cleared off and then a layer of damp sea weed, frosh from old ocean was spread over them. On top of this was spread four bushels of Little Neck clams, one bushel of shell oysters, ten biue fish averaging about five pounds each, two bushels of sweet corn, oue bushel of sweet potutoes, one bushel of Irish potatoes and four dozen lobsters. Over this appetizing layout was spread another thick layer of scaweed and a double tarpaulin was covered over the wholo and dirt put all around the edge to keep the steam from es- caping ‘Phe entiro party formed a group of greatly interested spectaiors whilo tueso prepara tions were making and when tho operation had been completed everybody turnod his at tention to the clams which had been kept out for chowder, ete. Clams *on the haif'" wero in great demand and it was soon appareut few of the party understood how to conquer ths clam’s aversion to boiug eaten As aresult a_majority of the crowa knocked most of the skin off their kuuckles and a fresh breeze was all that prevented tho trees taking fire Many gave it up in disgust and t00s to the woods, where thoy found that thoy were bet ter acquainted with the mysteries of hi five than with the seience of opening clams, Among the party were soveral members of Russell’s comedians, iucluding Mr, Russell, Dan Daly, Bert Haverly and Julius Wit mark. Mr. Daly took tothe clams liko a duck does to water and he kepc a laree circle supplied with delicious bivalves which be opened in a dextrous mauner. In about an hour and u nalf the feast was announced and eighty-fivo voracious appo. tites of the male gender sat down to two long tables spread under the sheltoring brancnes. The menu card bore this scriptural () in- junction, somewhat distorted Ly ono of tho | committee in charge of the affair: “Eat, drink and bo merry, for on the morrow your digos! will probably be out of wiae Tn spite of this awful warning tha on- slaught_commonced and in o short timo oversthing on tho monu was ltorally *out of sight.” T'ie monu card was as follows Clam chowder. Pries’ lake water in small cups. Biuo fish Missouri river water filtered, Lobsters und coftee, Steamed clams and Trish potatoos, Touy Faust becer. Steamed oysters and sweet potatoes. Moro Tony Faust beer, Spring chicken and sweet corn, on want, lory with read and butfer. Take tho browery. Among thoso seated at tho tables woro ob- served the following: Governor J. .

Bartlett, D I S Browlee, Georze Krvonk, I, I v, Honry Philbin, Georgo Mills, D.W and the members of tho iussell 1y above mentioned: Thio manner in which the mountain of viands was disposed of was proof of the quality and of the capacity of the members ofthe party. It was a freo-for-all, go-us- you-pleaso feed,and there was fear exprosse that I, W. Miner and Coloncl Frank Moores, tho genial clerk of the distr would create a famine, but such a was averted by the presenco of mind of Mar tin Kolly, wio sent the waiters to other parts of tho table, To say that the affair was a howling suc- cess, but feobly expresses the true condition of affairs, It ivas the unanimous opinion that the committeo having the matte o Mossrs. Goorge Kronk, Henry Philbin and T, P. Gridloy, had covered thomselves with glory, and left an impression which would be ineffacablo in the minds of the participants. After the importaut duty of attendiug to the wants of the inner man had beon | formed the coaches wore remounted and tho merry party returned to the city where a short drive was taken about town aud then the party disbanded at the club rooms Ouce more have the Elks aemonstrate their ability to provido a good time for the selves and frionds, L O, Tho Oddfellows of Chicago are aboit ercct the highest building 10 the world, It will be a temple of the order aud is to be thiriy-four stories in height.
