FINE TUGGING, BOXING AND WRESTLING Farmer Barns' Hard Work In Throwing Gatentin—One Basy Day on the Sev- oral Hace Tracks—Town Sports- men's Suceossful Meeting. TLast night was club night at tho Omaha Atbiletic club and about o fifth uf the attend- anco the merits of the evenug's card de- sorved was on hand to wilness the sport, ‘e program opened with o tug-of-war, two out of three, botwoen the club team and tho Bohieminns, This was a most stubborn and interestiag event, the club team win- ning the first and third pull, after a tromend- ous struggle Following this came a four-round sparring oxhivition between two local coloved pugs un- worthy of moro than a mere mention. Then came Kd Rothery, who, with proper training, would have mado one of the greatest wolter- wolght fighters Fistiana ever kuew, and Danny Daly. They zave a fine sbow of tho beauties of artistic sparring, and elicited salvo after salvo of npplause. Against his burly and skilled antagonist gentlomanly little Dan madd'a most excellent display. Teddy Gallagher and Jimmy Noonan fol- lowed 10 anothor four-round zo. refreshing ana spirited from start to finish. The pugilistic program wound up with a very stiering bout between lid and Arthur Roth- ery, in which Jack was sbout as good as his master, The premiorevent of the evening, ono that should have packed the house from pit to dome, was the catch-as-catch-can wrestling maten, two in three, between Farmer Burns, the unquestioned champion of the world, at this style, and Prof. £. I, Galletnin,another vety clever exponent of modorn athletic: The catch-as-catch-can style of wrestling is the most uatural style of all the many in vogue in tho modern times. 1t permits of any nold, and contestants aro at liberty to ex- ercise all or any means to bring an opronent down. It is 1 this style we como to the highest development in wrestling. But space forbids & disquisition on the great sport, or even on extonded notice of last night's magnificent battle, Suftico it to say, witn all his vaunted repu- tation and marvelous prowess, the great and unequaled Farmer found a worthy opponent in Galentin. However, atter numerous thrill- ing situations 1n which the buttock and the cross-buttock, the full and half nelson, the croten, the guarter, the arm, tha back ham- mer, the headlock, chancery, backhold, trip- lock, strangle, the flying and uil other holds known in this masterful passage-at-arms, tho unconquered and all-conquering Farmer won two straight falls, the first in thirteen and tho second in fiftcen minutes, and the crowd, highly elated over what they had been treated to, dispersed. Instead of 130 peovle witnessing this splen- did exnibition the club rooms should have been packed at double the price.

Hvide- koper of Pennsylvania, 1n the United States district court, has ootained judgment against Dallas county, Missouri, for §710,000, over half of the asiessed valuation ot the county. In1870 Dallas county voted that amount of aid in county bonds to the La- clede & Fort Scott raiiway, which was never built. The bonds fell into the hands of Mr. Huidekoper, an innocent purchaser, and tho court decided that they must be paid. The case1s an exact parallelof the St. Clair county cases, tho judeo of which county is now serving a term for contempt, having de- clined to issue a spocial tax levy for the pay- ment of the debt as orderod by the United States court. e B Dr. Birney’s Catarrh Powder cure catarrh, For sale by all druggists. 50 ceuts PERSONAL PARAGRAPILS, Augustus Sattler of Norfoli is at the Mil- lard. .

MAY 25, ) 1892-TWELVE NEBRASKA'S MILITARY BOARD After a Oaroful Investigation the Members Exonerate Genoral Cole. HIS BUSINESS METHODS WERE CARELLSS No Disposition on the Part of the Board to Question Intogrity—What the Report Indientos—! Nows Notes. LixcoLy, Neb, May 24.--|Speclal to Tue Bee.]—The Military voard, consisting of Adjutant, General Vifqualu, General L. W. Colby. brigade commander, Colonel J. P. Bratt, commanding First infantry, Colonel C. J. Boll, commanding Second infantry, and Major J. C, Watson, judge advocate, has completed tho examiuation of tho accounts of ex-Adjutant General Cole and suvmitted its findings to Governor Boyd. It will bo remembered that within a sho:t time after General Cole's rotirement on the Sth of last Fobruary it was announcoed that his accounts with the state were in a most unsatisfactory condition. The books had been improperly kopt, records were incomplete and vouchors missing. 8o hopelessly wero the accoants entangled that it was thought best to place thom ib tho hauds of a competent expert. Mr, T, H. Leavitt of Lincoln was employed and his work was very thoroughly dono. It has not been charged by ony membor of the Military board that General Cole was an embezzlor. * All through the somewhat lengthy and tedious examination his personal integrity has not been questioned by General Vifquain or any of h?s associates on the board. The only charge against him was carelessness 1 koeping the accounts of the oftice. Shortage Mado Good. Goneral Cole was present during the do- liberations of the board and was given overy opportunity to explain aud correct mattors, His versonal explanation in rogard to man; matters was acceptod unhesitatingly, al- though he could show novouchors or records. The bourd found that thero was due the stato from Goneral Cole the sum of $1,440.86. Of this amount General Cole_beliovos that he can prasent vouchers for $475 and ho will bo wiven an opvortunity to do so. Ho arew a check for the balance, &5, and handed it to General Vifquain. The statemont of facts and figuros mado by tho expert is an inter- esting_ document, aot only because it 1s of a cliaracter which 'does not often appear in print, but because it shows how loosely hon- ost meu in oftico can handlo and account for the public funds intrusted to them. Findings of the Board, First—That the law relating to the auditing of Nebraska national guard sccounts has been disrezarded inasmuch as the military board was not convoked to $ upon them.
