SOUTH OMAHA WAS IN HARD LUCK Sloux City Gets the Last One Away the Cowboys—American As sociation £cores—Spor ing Notes. fr Jelen and Lacy are still tho king battery Omaha’s amateur teams, The round-fa Bohemian pitcher came near hitting enough men yestorday to lose the gnme for the Non- pareils, but he had the best fielders in tho city behind him and the day was won, al though it required eloven lnnings to do it Just as o starter, Jelen helped tho Nonpa- reil’s cash-box along by winning the 100 yards' run between himself and Condon of South Omaha, for a §20 purse. That mado the crowd jubilant, but thercafter their faces alternated between lonis of auxiety and smiles induced by prospective victory, Ticknor and Gross, the ex-Fremont bat- tery, wero tho hopo of the Magic Citys. They started the run-getting in the second on Flynn's error and Gross' home run hit For nine innings thereaftor they didn’t zet a run. T'he Nonpareils got two men over the plate carly in the game, but were equally as unfortunate as their doughty oppouents up to the eloventh, Hero Ticknor mado a grave mistake. After striking out I lynn he allowed Jerry Mahonoy 10 hit the leather. It was a hot one to_the third baseman and ho fumbled it. Davi Shanahan resolved to do or die. He picked eut a niceone and thesecond timein the game pushed it into right fleld for threo cushions, Jorry Mahoney crossing the plate witn tne winning run, It was tho best game played this season at Nonpariel park and was witnessed by 1,200 cople.

The party spent an entire afternoon with me and was delighted and surprisea at the work of some of my pupils. “Probably the best all round fencer in Omaha, both for scientific points and as- saults, 1s Mr. George W. Ames, president of the Athletic club. Mr. Ames has studied the arg both bere and abroad and as a result ex- cels in it. “Dr. F. J.

In the cotton region the temperatuve slightly in excess and in California the week was slightly oler than usual, Rainfall -There was a general deficiency in rainfall over the whole country east of tho Rocky mountains with the exception of a few limited localities where local showers gave more than tho normal rainfall. These small areas are located in North Carolina, Texas, eastern Michigan and northwestern Towa. There was almost a total absence of rain in the lower Mississippi, lower Ohio and the lower Missouri valleys. Heavy local snowers occurred in the east gulf states und lower lake region, while very light showers were revorted from all other districts The rainfall was in excess on the immediate Pacific coast, although very light on the coast of California, while generally in the interior little or no rain was reported.

It now serves the samo purpdeesof introducing Willard Simms to the theater-going public. Roland Reed in the role of Dick Smythe, bohemian newspaper man, journalist, is only a momory. Here and thore in Mr. Simms’ por- trayal of the character there is a suggestion of tho erantor of tho part, but it is so slight that oue easily forgots tho suggestion in tho manner in which the prosent exponent of the rolo plays it. Noever having seen Mr. Roed in the character, Mr. Simms must be cred- ited with giving to the theatrical world a type, which while exaggerated, is breezy and thorougbly unconventional. Trained to the stage throu the medinm of the stock, M Simms brings to bearon the part o knowl- art that is very refreshing. A clover dancer, awood singer, and alive to new things in the spectalty line, he give finished impersonation of the Amorican no paper reporter whoso heart is in the right place. His burlesque song ana dance in the third act, introducing a soubrett nocory- pheo and’ Carmencita, was particularly en joyable, Miss N 0 in the char of Neli is an excellest foil to the star. She is piquant, pretty, and plays the part with excelient dis: cretion. Miss_ Vivian Pateo ns tho advontuross, Mrs, Mabel Racket, looks the partto perfec- tion, and she dresses it claborately, in keep- ing with the character. She reads the li well and with just a bit more abandon would compare very favorably with Alico Hast ings, who made it one of the strong creations of the sta Ray Sanford Bell Mr. Gordon as the villai Ted Brower, plays that worthy int00 quiet a manner. He misconceives” the type of man Ted rower was, and in make-up looked little the desperate personage he is renuted to be. Ho also fails in depicting the thief beneath the outward seeming of a cultured man of the world, and his performance suffers in consequerco, ‘The other parts are in fairly competent hands, and the initinl performance of *Cheok’’ in its new garb may safely bo smd to be a pronounced succes; lio 1 was well played by Robert *ite for the Cathedral. Dr. Victor H. Coffman has sold his hand- somo residence and grounds at the head of St. Macy’s avenue to Kt. Rev.
