{ ] { i SPORTS OF INDIAN SUMMER A Oouple of O1d Timers 8pin a Sprinting Reminicoence. A LOT OF SHORT RASE BALL STORIES Movements of the Short Haired—The Track Stable—Dog and Gun The Coming Beneh Show and General Loeal Sporting Note The Death of Jndge Clark Shooting and Iisting, a Boston sports man's journal, has the following to say anent, the lamented death of Judge J. R. Clarkson: News of Judgoe Clarkson's death will be re- eeived with surprise and genuine Sorrow by many renders of Shooting and Fishing, His recant contributions 1o this journal gave evi- dence of his devotion to the rifio and to fleld sports: thev also revealed much of that poetic nature inherent to many of the lr)l'nl’nllf‘, but generally withbeld, Judge Clarkson's writings, which he called “‘Confessions of a Rifloman,” were akin to_the experiences of many dovotees to the rifle, and bis recitals 80 appealed to the fraternity as to ¢ eato for bim feelings of warm friendshin. Shooting and kishing will carry the sad news to many ections, at home and abroad, and will leave feolings of sorrow and regret at the death of the brilliant young jurist. The Trap Shooting Tourney. A trap shooting tournsment will be held at the Bemis Park gun club grounds across the river October 26, 27 and 25, with Billy Nason as manager. The prospects are good for n larga attendance, as thero will bo many sportsmen attracted here on those dates by tho bonch show, which will be in progress at Exposition hall. There will bo both live birds and farcets used, and the daily pro gram will include from’ ten to_fifteen races, The shooting off of ties will be encouraged by the management, as it is belloved tho dividing of small purses among so many shooters has a tendency to decrease the at: tendance at tournaments. As high as 03 Apd 04 per cent have often been made in amall sweopstake shooting, and the winners then loso money, as odd as that may seem. 1t Will Soon Be Snowball: Serappy Jack O'Connov headed Cleve land’s batting listin her closing games. Faward O'Neill, formerly of Milwaukeo and Fr. Wayre, died at Fall River several nights ago of asthma. Down south they gave Billy Harle a new nickname, e was so cpry on his feet that the cranks called him “'the Contortionist.” Dahlon, tho minor, will have to disgorgo the §500 ho goubled from Milwaukeo last season. 1lo has been ealled down by Judge Brenlano. 17Tis rumored that Al Buckenberger will ba found at tho head of affairs in St. Lows in 703, —Times-Star, Thought ho had agreed to stay in Pittsburg. - 1 won’t”? in baso ball gencrally means the opposite thing. Joo Kelly declared he wouldn’t play in Baltimore, but Lo bLas ac- copted torms after all. Joe Ardner is heroically endeavoring to eko out hvelihood with a semi-professional club in Cleveland. It is needless to add that he Is slowly starving to death. All pitehers could with profit study thoe habits and practices of pitcher Nichols of Boston. There 1s a pitcher that, accidents excopted, is always in shapo to pitch good ball.—-Sporting Life. Jimmy Canavan was harpooned by old Anse at last on Tuesday last. He threw tho iron into him deep, then put on the bench for the balance of the season. 'Cause, he hit the ball oo hard too infrequently. 1f Tim O'Rourke, shortstop of the Baltl- mores, could only field as well asho bats ho would bo ono of the stars of the league. He has a batting average of over .300, but bis work at short fleld {s ragged at times. Sly, foxy old Frank Selee has gotten him- self dishked by expressing on_ opinion that 1wo leagues are necossary to make base ball difference it Thakes what Seleo thinks, one way or an- go. 1'd like to know what other. It doesn’t take King Kel long to catch on, says Mulford. A Boston recent game failed to stir on a ball. Kel was mad away from that bag us if you were quarantined.” McAleer of Cleveland shows his wonder- ful ability as a conter fielder by missing but fifteen out of 251 chances for outs. Grifiin of Brooklyn leads Mac in avernge, but played ia forty five fowes games and bad 117 fewer chances:—Times-Star. Big Haui O'Day claims to bo I bottor condition than ever before and would like Yo sign at a moderato salary with some league club for next year.

The Baltimore-Pittsburg deal for the ex- chango of Van Haltren aud Joo Kelly was consummated last I'riday and Van Haltren signed with Pittsburg. Kelly ovjected to going to Baltimore at first, claiming tkat tho town would bo out of the league next yoar, Manager Hanton talked him out of this idea and bo promised to join the team, provided ho recoived o short vacation, which was granted.-Pittsburg Dispateh, Over in St Louls they claim that Patsey Bolivar Tebeuu is tho greatest base ball gen- oral of them all.

That to locate a factory and then letit die for the want of patrouage was tho height of folly, and that manufacturors would locate where there was a cortainty of their finding a mar- ket for their goods, in other words, that tho best way to build up the manufacturing sources of the state was to create a market for the goods manufactured within the state, which would cause the plants already estab. lished to bo calarged and the number of em- ployes increased. It was pointed out that a market could bo easily createa if the people would giye tho profereace to home-maae £oods instead of seuding millions of dollars every yoar to eastern manufacturors. Tie Bee assumed that the tendency of the people of Nebraska to buy in tho east was due to habit, to prejudice in favor of old ana well known brands ana to the fact that thoy had never stopped to think that by so doing they wero impoverishing their state and hindering the dovelopment of its manu- facturing resources, Caroful inyestigation, however, showed ono of the chief roasous for the people buying in the east was tho fuct that they were not aware that certain goods were made, or evea could bo made, in the siate. Many consumers wore not even aware of the existence of the bost and larg- est manufacturing industries in Nebraska. Belioving that if the attention of tho peo- ple was called to the necessity of keoping their inoney within the state, and that if the differont ‘iudustries of the state were pointed out to them they would chaugo their patronnge to home 1nstitutions. Tnr Bee commenced o series of articles on Nebraska factories, The factories of Omaha, Nebraska City, Beatrice, Hastings, Kearney and ottor Nebraska citios wore visited and descrived and the peonle urged to buy their product. As a resuit thero has been a greater i terchange of man- ufactured goods among the d.ferent cities of Nevraska than ever before. The peovlo of theso cities, especially of Omaha, appear to realizo as thoy did not before that it is to thoir gntorest to patronize ocach other rather than send every dollar they get to somo ais- ant city, where 1t is lost to them and to the whole state. In pursuance of the work of educating the people to buy Nebraska goods, ana of point- ing out to them what industries have already been established within tho state, a ro- porter of Tug BeEk visited Lincoln during the past week in company with W. A. 'age, bresident of the Manufacturers and Con- sumers Association of Nebraska. Thoy were met ot tho dopot by Messrs. Stewart and Bryan of the Purity Extract company of Lincoln, Mr, Stewart being the vice prosi- dent of the Manufacturers association. A carriago was furnished and the party driven as rapidly as possible about the city from one factory to anotber. After a half hour’s stop for dinner the drive was continued until after 6 o'clock in the evening. It soon becamo eovident that the manufac- turing industries of Lincoln were too ex- tensive to bo seen in a single day, and when darkness arrived theré were still many im- portant factories that had not been visited. Lincoln, like many other cities of the state, nas made much greater progress in manu- facturing than the peoplo Tealizo. 1t is imvossible to do vhe subject justice ir one newspaper articlo and all that can be at- tompted is to call attention briefly to some of the leading enterprises. 5 Brick Making in Lincoln, Tho manufacture of building and paving brick is being carried on with great succoss in Lincoln, and in view of the number of meu employed it is one of the most import- ant industries of that city. Among tho firms engaged in the business are: Buck- stafl Bros. Manufacturing company, J. B. Stockwell, John Fitzgerala, L. K. Holmes, Mr. Stevens ana Mr. Hogan. They aro turning out everything in the line of brici, common building brick, tho finest pressed brick, and tho hardest paving brick. Includ- ing the ving gangs, teamsters, etc., the orick makers of Lincoln aro employing at least 500 men, Anyone who will take the trouble to malke a fow figures can oasily seo of what importance this industry is 10 the cityand to tho state. The employment of 500 men suppor 500 families, or 2,000 to 2,500 peovle, furnishes tenants oc owners for 500 houses, gives tho rotail dealers several thousand dollars trade cach wesk, and puts just so much more life into every business ento rpriso The Buckstaff Bros. Manufacturing com- pany is selling a great maoy brick in Omabha and its plant was visited. The material of which paving brick is made is a sbale rock of u slate color and about as hard as chalk. It1sground and mixed with water and then passcd through the brick machine. It emorgos on & moving belt and in the form of a continuous strip of clay the width ana thickness of a brick. Toe belt carries it through unother machine which chops it up into the rogulation brick lengths. Workmen standing on cither sido then remove the clay bricks from the belt and place them onto small handears which are pushed into ibe dryiug rooms as soon us loaded, By means of'steam heat the moisture 1s _driven out in about twenty-four hours and tho bricks, which thn resemble hard blocks of clay, are ready for burning, The kilus for burningare of brick. arched over for tne roof, and within them the green bricks ure loosely piled. Tho fires are built in furnaces along” the ridgo of the kilnsso ¢ tructed that the heat passes to tho top of the kilus, then down through the bricks and up again through flues be- tween tho walls of the kilns. It requires threo cars of coal per day t koop tho fires burning and 175 men to operate this plunt alone. J. .

Lincoln Cigars, The cigar manufacturers of Lincoln nre struggling to solve the same question that is agitating their brothers in Owaha, how to wean the finicai smoker from his eastorn brands. Th locations with large airy roows in front for retail purposes and wora modols of neatness. ‘Their product is pronounced first~class by their patrons and equal Lo anything mado in the east. It is hurd, bowever, to make smokers realize this, ‘The averago smoker bsoros new 1deas siowlw. 1t is bard to make Dim realize that times have changed and that the cizar industry has beon moving westward and that cigars: can be made in Nebraska as well as otner lines of goods. He is & man full of prejudicos and unforia nately bis prejudices arein favor of the east instead of tho west, It is this prejudice that confronts the unufacturers of Lincoli and every other Nebraska city, and it will require a great deal of azitation to break it down. Yet ag tation will do a great deéalsit has double tho namber of cigarmakers employed in Owmaha, - Lincoln cigor manufacturers employ twen- ty-five to birly people, which is a botter showing than Omaha can make, taking the relative size of the two cities 1uto considera- tion. Ataoug those engaged in the manufa ture of cigars in Lincoln are: G. R. Wolf, P, J. Woulenberg, Charles Witzel, Philip Bauer, H, Wobker and L. Gothelff. A Paper ML The Buckstaff Bros. Mauoufacturing com- pany 18 operatiug a paper mill at Lincoin, and one who has never visited such uu lusti- tution would be deeply interested in the process of manufacture, The mill is turning out siraw paper, both bLeavy and light weights, expross paper and rag paper. The straw as it cowes from the farmer's hands is put luto large tanks and steamed until it s thoroughbly cooked, From the tanks it is passed into the beaters, which reduce it into avery Hue pulp. The paper machine vbhen takes toe pulp in hand, passes it between rollers that press it out to the thickoess of paper. As firsl formed the paper ls too weak Lo support its own weight, aud Is car ried along on other rollers that press out the cigar factories visited had gooa | water, As the pager gains in strength ft 18 lifted from tho belt and passed on throuki eighteen steam rollera that drive out tho last vestige of moisture. This endloss web of paper passes through tho machine without a break hour after hour. A car was boing loaded with paper for the McCord-Brady com- pany of Omaba, and it was learned that the Carpenter Paper company, Paxton & Galla- gher, M. D. Steelo & Co, and the King Paper company, all of Omaba, are large patrons of this mill. In fact, a arge propor- tion of the output of the mull is sold to Omaha houses. This mill consumes twenty tons of straw per day, which makos a market for all tho straw that the farmers in the vicinity o Lincoln nave for sale. Pork Packing. Thke Lincoln Packing and Provision com pany handies 110,000 hogs in the course of a season and emplogs 140 men when in fall blast. L M. Raymond who operates this plaut is also an extensive wholesale grocer and is reported ¢ decidedly in favor of home patronago. *I bought tho entire outvut of the first canning factory started in Nc- braska," said Mr. Raymond, “and 1 am now hundiing Neoraska crackers, vinegar, starch, soap, meats, canned goods, extracts, lard, cereal goods, eto. In fact one-third of all the goods that 1 sell aro made within the state. Allof the flour that goes out of our building is of Nebraska manutacture. I find it just as easy and. more protitavie to soll Nebraska goods. A great deal of tho western cannod corn is better than the oastern. Western miils make cereal goods cheaper than the eastern, as the raw material ©€0sts them less.”” Mr. Raymond went still further 1nto dotails, showing that goods made in Nebraska woro equal to those of enstern manufacturo and that there was no sensein shipping supplies from the oast. The State Institations. In this connection 1t might be stated that she managers of some of tha state institu- tions are vecoming interested in the home patronage movemeat. The management of tho insane asylum especially has taken a great deal of troublo to ascertain what goods are mado in Nebraska and 1 advertising for supplies it specifios that Nobraska goods vo furnished. Tho state is a vory large buyer of many lines of goods and if those in chargo of tho aifferent iustitulions would follow the examplo of the asylum people it would give material aid to Nebraska in- dustries, Othor Lincoln Factories. Tho Purity Extract company gives cm- ployment to about twenty poople and turus but abig line of high erade extracts of all kinds. On November 1 they will com- monco the manufacturo of porfumery, face powder, ofe. Not loug ago eastern manu- facturers supplied the trado in this line very largely but thoey uro beiug forced out by whe liome patronago movement and the superior quality of goods turned out by Nobraska manufacturers. C. J. Roman, Camp Bros. and D. W. Camp & Son are manufacturers of carrlagos and wagons, Thoy employ fifty men or over, but could easily empioy a good many more jf it was not so popular among wealthy citizens to send east for their carriages. Mr. Roman nas sold several vans aud carriages in Omaha. Lasch Bros. company manufactures a fine line of eonfegtionory and employs thirty -seven people. There is room for a good deal of bome patronago missionary work emong tho retail dealers in contectionery. The Lincoln pottery works employ about twenty-five men and turn out all kinds of flower pots, hanging baskots, yard vases, mill pans, etc. Tho Chise Manufacturing its hoadquarters at Lincoln, aithough its plant is located at Weoping Water. It manufactures nigh grade sewing machines, such as tho Now Nobie, Lincoln, cte. W. B."Howard, who takes a great deal of nterest in tho home patronage movement, manufactures au extensive lne of special- lies, such as proparations for the skin, faco teach, cough cure, colic remedies, ote, Tho Lincoln Cracker factory or the Ameri- can Biscuit company’s factory is a well patronized establishment employing forty people. Their product is sold mostly in Ne- braska, The Lincotn Paint and Color company is a very large concern, having fectories at Lin- coln, Omahu, St.’ Joe and Spokane. They are putting up a four-story brick building in Ligcoln. "here are mang other factories 1 Lincoln, u detniled description of which would make very entertaiuing reading for those who ato interested in tho prosperity of the state, but unfortunately thero is svace only for the bare wention of names. Among otner factories noted_were tho fol- towing: Lincoln’ Carriage Top ifactory, Vogt & Williams, cider and vinegar: Lincol Vinegar and Pickle_ works, Lincoln Coffee and Smce mills, A. M. Osborn_and Western Manufacturing company, cooperage; Edward Janesch and William' Gaiser, vornices: Coopor Radiator company, Downiug Iron and Boilor works, Hall Range and Furnace company, Lincoln Road Grader company, company makes Crandall Pattorn and Model works, Model Mop Pail and Wringer compac, Nebra Mantel company, Western Mattress com- pany, 1.

Smith machine works, W, H. Berger, broom factory ; Tychson & Iteusch, spice mills, Because some of the manufacturing indus- tries ure mentioned at greater length than others must not be taken as an indication that they are of more importance, A good many factories were visited ata time when the proprietors hapyened to be out and & good many others wero not visitea at ail, ns darkness set in too soon, It was intended to cail attention to the job printing and book binaing departments of the Lincoln newspapers, which employ about 300 people, but the spaco is too limited. Whilo newspaper plants aro not usually clussed among factories they omploy no smull number of people. Toere is still u great deal of job printing sent out of the state, which couid be dono just as well ana just as cheaply at homo, Tio Lincoln news papers are paying considerable atiention to the home patronage movement and Lincoln consumers are commencing to catoh the spirit which promises to give manufacturing in Nebraska quite a boom, An 1mportanc Home Industry, A mau who gives omployment and stand- ard wages to 175 men, and this in what is gistinetively a home' industry, deserves credit. » Jolin Graot, tho paving ‘contractor, does this, It was Mr. Grant who conceived the idea of utilizing the tons of siag thrown into the mver as rofuse by the smelter people, and in the manufacture of slagolithic paviog he founded a new uud active industry i Omaha, To this business he has succoeded in adding the bus- iness of usphalt mixing and paving and is now iu charge of 1wo important city con- tracts. A tour of s works and of the as- phalt laying on Park avonuo revealed great etvity in this particular industry, Neither tho asphalt works nor the slag: crushing plant of the Grant company is im posing frow an arcnitectural view-point, but thero 15 an air of business about them that is cheering. The company has the crude asphaltum, which comos irom Trinidad, un loaded froi the cars alongside the works, and the process of reduction and mixing is carried on 4t & ‘‘white heat,” though in this case it might moroe [iterally be termed @ blaok heat, The sand used 1s Nebrassa sand, the white variety coming from the Platte, 1he vellow from Cedar creek, and 1t nas been demon- strated that Nobrasica sand is the cqual of any other sand in Lho country for asphalt work. Tho wearing qualities of the Grant asphait aro yet to bo tested. and Mr. Grant bas only ouo desire—"What I want now,” bo sald swnding on his Park ave- nue work, after measuring off 1,122 feet and eatering it as the result of the day's work, s all tne traflic, and of the heaviest Kind, 'that can come slong here.” The pave- ment cortainly looks like a thoroughly work- wanlike joo. Mr. Grant has been fn the paving business ail his life. He was the first goverament iuspector of asphalt paving ever appointed, overiooking the laying of the worid = famous Pounsylvauia avenue pavement av the national capital. He lad the firat aspualt pavement in Omabs, then working for the Barbor concern. Heisa citizen and taxpayer of Omaba, and here all his domestic and commercial interests aro anchored.
