THE LOCAL WORLD OF SPORT All That is Fresh and Interesting from the Ball Players' Realm. NEBRASKA'S GREAT FUTURITY STAKE Among the Panchors— The So Tarf mons of the Athletic Swedes—Dog and Gun and Breezy Mis- cell New Yonk, Feb, 20.—To the Sporting Bdi torof Tur Ber: Tho editor of Bell's Life in reviewine Tom Paddock’s pugilistic career, paid “his passionate tomper had been his bane,” ahd further stated that he had seon him fignt a number of rounds steadily with his left, ana derive great benefit by doing so, but tho nioment he got pinked he would in- stantly change to the two handed style pecu- liarly his own.” Although Paddock began his fistic oarecr bofore he was out of bhis Soons, he was a twelve stone (168) man in bard condition to begin with and did not &row from a middle to a heavy weight, like #tarry Broome and Jem Mace. When Tom Sayors (who was eighteen wmonths younger than Paddock) fought Dan »Collins in 1850 at ten stono (140 pounds) the 7 Sight was intercupted by a magistrate io the ninth round, ana, he commanded the men to #top fighting, which they did after some ro- monstrance from Sayers' noisy followers, &mongst whom the championship candidats (Paddock) offensively conspicuous and was for defying all law, order, desency and common sense, and then ana there, heodloss of tho consequoence, finishing the affair on the presumption that they nad a decided ad- yautage ut the time of the interruption. Paddock fought Bendigo the same month; he little thought at that time that Savers ‘would be the champion and beat Poulson, Jonos, the Tipton Slasher and himself somo yoars afterwards (1850-55). Johnny and Harry Broomo backed Pad- @ock in his championship fight with Bendigo, and thoy snid ho showea a great deal of fractiousncss and bad temper during his training. There can be little doubt that he Was a better man thau Bendigo at that time, and would probably have won if he had not got irritated intoa foul blow b{ Bendy drop- ing. He mot the Tipton Slasher in Decem- rof tho same year, but was over-mratched. Iu adaition to'the Tipton's advantage in belght and weight, he was decidedly the bot- yer scionced man. ' Paddock was & rusher ®ud did not practice retreating tactics. An ©'d ring-goer exclaimed in the first round: “It's any odds on the old man, the 04ug 'un has got his master before bim.' oll’s Life sald Paddock looked of the olish breed beside Benaigo, but all be- fore tho ‘Tipton, and that Tom's yokel like foints were complotely out of distance; the rush that proved dangerous to Bendigo, old, stale and auder twelve stone, was certain de- siruction against tho bulky and firm stand. ing Slasher, on account of his tact at coun- teriog, his superior length of reach, and his immenso weight.” Whon the Tipton was ‘walking to his corner at the end of the twenty-sevonth round the peppery Paddock Tau atter him and struck him on the back of the neck. Old Tipton turned nl)Felllnrly to tho referee, who at once decided in his favor. (rime forty-two minutes.) Paddock had sfterwards a chance to fight either Tipton or Jones a second time and he said *‘He pre- ferred Jones.” (lhe easiest job.) And ‘whom he again boat in 8n hour and a half ‘% (dune 1855). Paddock intendea to retire then and “'Bell’s Life said he mi ht safely haue retired with glory,” but he_had heard that he had been matched with Sayers, Pad- dock staking £150 agast £100. Sayers was overjoyed atthe prospect of & whirl with Paddock, who was at the time matched with Broome, but Sayers backers positively de- clined to 2o on with the match until the con- test with Paddock and Broome was decided. Bell's Life, in aking of Sayers after- wards, said in 1856 Sayers flew at high 5nme and was actually ‘matched with Pad- ock. The police were very busy trymng to stop the Tipton Slasher and Paddock from meoting and the reporter saia Tipton . very gruuenlly vested in his car while they were unting a place to meet, and he noticed foremost among tho crowd ronning across ploughed flelds, ote., the burly figure of the copperfaced Paddock. The mill was fought by moonlight ultimately, A man drew a knife on Paddock in a saloon once and stabbed him; Tom romarked to Bob ‘Travers, the black Ku‘(lllsl “*Bob, he's stick- 4ng me.” Tom and his assussin were arrested 'snd tried next morming. Puaddock after- ‘wards forfeited £80 to the Tipton and came ‘mear having to forfeit to Sayers through lotting his hasty temper get the better of him, in some words with Aleck Keene, his principal backer. He had a dangerous Iliness &nd bad beon in the hospital the year before ho met Sayers and was stale and no longer the vigorous fresh man he had been. ‘‘The editor saia he gained a slight advan- tage over Sayers in their contest sometimes, but 1t was very short lived, euough,however, Wwas done to convince us that had he beon the Paddock of five years provious, Tom’s chances of holding his proud position would have been anything but rosy.” Notwith- tanding Paddock’s staleness he showed ail is old gamoness and gained the first blood and the first knock down. Poor old Tom had the temerity, whea nearly on his last logs, over two ycars later, to meet the gigantic B%m Hurst, and was knocked out and had his ribs broken by a rizht bander from the clumsy coloasus in ten minutes. Hurst was 8 hammer man or blacksmith’s helper. His beighth was six feet two and a half, his ohest circumference forty-nine inches, and bis usual woignt in his clotbes when swing- sng the sledge hammer was 260 pounds. “The Staley Bridge Infant” as he was called ‘was cut all to ribbons and beaten into help- lessncss by the accomplished Jem Mace, fin eight roands, in 1861, Mace in that contest wolghed 150 pounds. Sayers and Mace, al- though only middle weights, could give away of wolght, through thelr skiil 1n dodg- Sng blows, wheroas both Paddock and Jonos eame to grief in their contests with Tipton, Hurst and McCools. The Tipton fought a draw and was beaten by Clirlos Freoman, tho Amorican siast. ‘who was ten incnes talerand seventy pounds beavier (1542), Froeman's height was six feet ten and a half, and his fighting weight ‘was 252 pounds. I saw Freeman and Count set to 10 @ theater in 1842, The giunt knocked big Bon down by a left hander on bis pug nose, Count placed one hand on the floor and sprang to his feet with great muscular wgility like flash. Big Bon was more com- pactly bullt. than Freeman and thicker in Emnorllnn 10 bis height. His knotty, curly ead and short bull neck ware firmly imbed. ed in a pair of herculean shoulders and his broad, decp chost and long, muscular limbs glv! him umost formidable appearance. His \ 4 elghth was six feet two and one-balf inche T CK “The Tout.

C. Taner. Tit-Tattle of tho Ring, What a how! would have gono up from the Ryan contingont all over tho country if it had been Danny Needham instead of Ryan who flunkod in the great welterweight fight at New Orleans last Monday night. In the morning on the day of the contest a bullotin was sent out saying that Tommy was in the fullest flush of “condition and that he had in soak for Danny one of the most thorough drubbings presumptuous pugilist ever recelved, This set the Chivago crowd, who were backing Ryan, tooth, mouth, nioney and toenail to plunging and 1t is reasonable tosuppose succobded in placing the most of their stuff, as Needham’s adherents were no scarce quantity by any means. In the mean- time Noadham himsolf, who was as strong and elastic as a piece of rubber, was the most confident and eager individual you ever SAW, He urged his friends that hero was their opportunity to make a ten strike, that he couldn’t possi- bly be in vetter fix, and an interposition of providence alone ocould prevent him from turning the tables on Ryan. The latter's backers, 100, became cognizant of Danny’s overtowering confidence, and while it niay have haa nothing whatever to do with Ryan's tonsils, it is quite certain it made a number of the fellows about his quarters oxcoeding- ly sick. And so tho great fight never came off. Ryan's buckers presented a physician’s certiticate instoad oi ''ommy himsetf,and the assombled sports were compelled to find salve in an impromptu mill between Need- ham and younx Juck Burke, the latter prov- ing but little better than a punching bag for the St. Paul boy. In this city where Needham is well known and extremely poular, he was a big favorite in his matoh with Ryan, and the disappoint- ment av their failure to meot was of the keenest kind. Dick Moore scored a most_oreditable vic- tory in defeating Paddy Cumings at Dubuquo last Saturday night. The two fought a draw in St. Paul’ & year ago, and the consensus of opinion ut the time was that Cumings was too big and strong for Moore, Dick, however, ovidently differed with these sa- vants of fistic_capabilities, for on Saturday night last ho gave away sixtoen pounds, then went in and fn & fearful sloggine match of sixteen rounds put tho big Irishmac out. Dick Moore is in the city anxious for acon- test with any man in his class in tho coun- try. Cummings, the man he dofeated at Dubuque Saturday night, has challenged bim for & finish fight for $250 a side and the ontire gate, the fight to come off either n Dubuque or this city inside of four weeks, Moore Las accepted, but no arrangements for the mill have as yet been made, The Black Pearl received another very thorough wholloping out in Frisco last Mon- day night. Charlie Turner, the Stockton colored pug, turned the trick. It was a trom- endous fight, bowever, and tho Pearl was punched out of all semblance to bumanity. Hundreds of the best judges in the country went wrong in picking Maher asa winner over Fitzsimmons last Wednesday night, but right here in Omaha the Fitzsimmons men on the night of the fight were largely in the majority, as the betting at the Diamond {n- dicated. ' Muber quit. Billy O'Donnell of this city and Jim Daly of Burlington, la., fight in an ice house at Covington, this state, this ovening. The Black Pearl received the kibosh from Turner out in 'E'risco last Monday night in thus wise, says the Chronicle: ““The fight ended in the ninetoenth round, and very quickly, too, for after a brief rally Turner ducked a hot left and returned the compli- went with a heavy righton the point of the jaw which brought the Pearl to the boards, He lay there for considerably over the allot. tod ten seconds, when his friends draggad him tohis corner. Turner was quite un- touched and apparently as fresh as paint, while 1t took the Pearl some minutes to re- cover and leave the ring.

Owmama, March 8, 1802.—To the Sporting Editor of Tie Bee: In the intorosts of fair play and athletics in general, I would direct your attention to the conduct of the mana- gors and judges of the armory contest, espec- fally in the mile walk event. 18m aware the managors had a deal to contend with in bringing their sports to a successful issue on so small a track, but that is no excuso for partial judgment to some, and foul play to others, Inthe ono mile walk thero was one man who was badly abused. I refer to Collier. This man took the load from the start, and led for the first half mile, welking strictly and fairly, whilst every other man on tho track was simply runaing, as was admitted by the judges, who cautioned every one of them (Collior excepted) several tmos, I don't know whether to attribute tho action of the judges to their ignorance of the laws of heel-und-toe walking or to say thoy wore staunch, true men who would stop at nothing when their friends needed their as- sistance, 1 take it as the former. 1t seems the more charitablo view and for their in- formation I will just givo them & hint about the laws of cautioning. (I don’t refer to the way you would know a man was run- nlng. All the judges know that last’ night. They coulan’t but know it), when a man breaks in walkihg he is cautioned, and should he agamn break e is cautioned by being stopped and turned around. Now should he repeat the offense ho is ordered rrom the track. Now in the armory contost these laws wore altogether igoored by the judges. All they seomed to Know about_cautioning was to say, “koep down, keop down,” which every oue of them said at least a dozen times toovery man ex- cept Collier. But here it did not end, Col- lier had the race well in hand despite all the runaing, had not two of the three judges given him to understand on asking, that tho man who ran past him for the lead (und who was subsequently awarded the race), was disqualifiod. Collier judged his race from this point to the end as if this man was out of the race. He naturally believed the judges, but 1t seoms they wanted to see who would come in for the medal before they would decide whethier a man was running or not. Moreover there was one individual who assumed the whole responsibility of judeing the raco, and finally awarded it whilo the Judges was at the other end of tho course. Now was this fair! Or what were the judges placed around the track for! Don’t you think the judges who cautioned every mun so often (Collier excepted) might if they were allowed time, have a waterial influence on tho decision? As it was, one of them who saw the mistake attempted to mend matters consoling Collier by saying he wus the only one wao watked, and only made them worse. Hitherto I have only stated bare [acts concerning the gross foul play to Collier. But these facts, taken 1nto consideration with a few more little incidents, give matters a vory uzly appearance indeed. Froin the first the managers and judges and competi- tors (but I don’t mind them, it was only natural on their part) were projudiced against this man Coliier. They charged him with belng a professional becanse he walkea a race (confived to amateurs) in the Coliseum. They objacted to himon the ground of en- tering under a psoudonym, but that counts nothing when 1t was a soratch race. Finally they said he was not ontered, but an investi- gation of the honorable secretary’'s manu- scripts overruled that objection. At last they suddenly allowed him to walk, evidently determined thatthat was all the gooa 1t would do him, Now, this 18 no way to treat atbletes or support athletics, Itis all very well to give = contest and charge no entry fees, but that's no excuse for dispensing with fair judgment, and I would sugzest in the event of another contest coming off at the armory they would auvertise it as *'a confined one,” ‘%o special winuers,” and not misiead the amateur ath- letes of the city (and then insult them) by aavertising it as an ‘‘open contest.” Yours truly, S. Warsox, 1322 Capitol avenue, No Talking Back This Year, Another good change in the code of laws govorning base ball gamos 1s that fortifying the umpire against annoyance from kicking players and bull-headed captains. As he always was, he 1s to continue as sole and absolute judge of all plays, and in noin- stance, nor uuder any circumstances will any player be allowed to question the correct- ness of his decision. If any player leaves his position in the field, on the basesor bench, with the single exception of the cap- tain, and he to show the playing rules onty, ho will be fined, an_arbitrary duty imposed upon the umpire. Should a manager or club officer presume to entor the flald on any occasion in dispute, the game must be given to the opposing club, This is undoubtedly one of the best changes that has been made in the base ball code for soveral years, as it relieves the spectator absolutely from the harrowing scene of an umpiro surrounded by two wrangling teams during the progress of & zamo, aud doos away with all the senseless kicking that has hitherto marked ail close games. Another thing, it shortens a_regular contest by fully ten minutes, which is a good deal'to mauy patrons of tho game. More Playors Than Places, L. C. Krauthoff of the players’ committes of the new Western league, writes that the committee has been overwhelmed with apph- cations from ball tossers who are anxious to link their fortunes with those of the new or- ganizations this season, 1day Secretary Wiiliams sent Mr. Krauthoff avout fifty ap- lications for him to pass upon, and this lot Fnurummd the total applications to consider- ably more than the number needed by the eight cluos. About half of the appligations heretofore were from rising players in the smaller leagues, but now the players in last year's Western' association - are sending in their terms. The salaries are very moderate, consider- ing the fancy figures thoy have been accus- tomed to, aud some of the old players who have been tearing the air into shreds with their howls against the new plau are now moekly asking Secretary Williams for quite modest ari Among these is Larry Twitchell, who a few weeks ago was declar- ing that he would never Elly for less than #300 8 month. Mr. Krauthof! stated yester- day that, on account of the unexpectéd num ber of applications, none would be received after March 1, and he advised all players who have not sent in terms to get inside be- fore the door is closea. Amateur Athletics. There has been talk for some time among the athletes of the oity to hoid an open contest 1n which all amateurs might try their prowess. This bas taken aotive form and will be held under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian association in Ex- position ball March 24, The events will b Pole vaulting, hiteh and kick, stanaiog hop, step and jump; putting sixteen-pound shot, three broad jumps and standing bigh jump. . A number of inen have alveady signitieq their intentions of entering and it is hoped that every club and turning soclety in the city, South Omaha and Council Bluffs will be represeated. It is an all round coutest and the three first men will receive suitable medals, Eutries must be made to W, S. Sheldon at Young Men’s Christian associa- tion, or G. T, Zimmerman at First National k, before March 18, This promises to be the greatest atbletic event of the season and every one interested in clean athletics should bear 1o mind the date.

The Ol1d e 8 e Tho attempt to obange the rule on balls and strikes rosulted In failare, as it should have done. The great difficuity with the men who hiave the moulding and manipula- tion of the national game in their hands is their proneness to tamper with the rules, Thoy nover seem satisfied to lot well enough alone, and at each recurring annual meeting a ereat deal of tinkering is done. This spring it was the above mentioned rule. Some authoritios thoueht by ihus increasing tho bandicap on the pitcher it would iocrease the batting ana in turn enbance the liveliness of the game. But it was an untenablo theory, for it would have had just tho contrary ef- foct. 'The balsman would hinve had ono loss swipo at tho ball, bit an wmerensed ehance to reach bis base on_the pitcher's inability to put them over. This, however, would havé added precious little to the excitement of the game, and it is an_exceedingly gratifying thing to know that tho old rule stauds, Onto the The tricky batter has had his chances for cunniug work curtailed by the recent modifi- cation of the rules. Hereafter the man at tho bat will be denfed the opportunity to in- tentionally foul a ball in order that the base runner may advance. Neither will there be any such thing as a blocked ball by reason of the samo striking the batsman’s club when in position. He must mind his eyes, to de- scend o nautical parlance, or he will be tossed out at firsy on ono of those so-called unintentional love taps. Tho new rule pro- vides that a ball so detivered that iv touches tho bat of the batsmau_in position sball be calied a batted bull and in play. Another new thing is that a ball striking a fence less than 345 feet from the homo plate, entitles the batsmun but to two bases only. Maunger R n the Agreement. Manager Rowe in speaking of tho new nationsl agreement last night said : “ILis a vast improvement over Mr.Rogors’ caricawre, and really as liveral as I ex- pected. While the tax lovied on us for pro- tection might have been a triflo lowor, as it is, it 1s not oxorbitant. In retura wo are to receive $1,000 for every man the big leag ue drafts from our ranks and they can ao uo drafting during tho laving season. 1t woula be nonsensical to impute to the league any- thing but the most generous interest in tho Western. We will rank second w point of importauce, and will be treated with all the respact and liborality our position entitles us. The magnates of the big league are thorough business men and look furthor than a day ahead.” Where t Needed. Billy Harrington, an éx-alleged base ball manager, has appliea to Prosident Williams for a position on thg’ Western league's umpiro staff, but Prosident Williams ought to understand,’;if he does mot, that this is an' ‘era of weed- ing out, instead of cultivatiog the incom- petent. the tough and the utterly no good, in the base hall watermeion.
