Toledo, 21; Grand Rapid Yesterday was ladies’ day at the Charles Street park, and a brilliant crowd of the fair ones were in the stands decked out in thelr gayest spring duds, Thelr sparkling eyes and beaming faces, however, had anything but a stimulating Influence on the Rourke family. In fact they seemed abashed in the prosence of this color and brightness and played ball irke = lot of bricklayers, and of course were soundly drubbed. On the other hand, the lads from Whisky- dom showed that they were at home in good soclety, and stacked up a game that was elghteen-karat fine. They pranced and cara- coled over the field like a lot of yearlings at a country fair and it required but a couple of brief innings to demonstrate that they Intended to give the Omahogs a touch of the highest kind of high life. And they did it, playing not only the strongest and prettiest game seen here since the days of Danny Shannon, but the only error- less ono put up on the local grounds this season. In the very opening inning they walked right out on the diamond and seizing the Rourkes by tho nape of the neck and the slack of the overalls made a mop of them. Boxendale was simply rhubarb ple for them. It was biff! smash! bang! in ‘every inning. Everybody hit him. If they failed he sent them hence on balls, It was differ- ent with Algernon Lyston. He was too much of a riddle for even big McVey, and won his game out without moistening his collar. When it was all over and the bulletin board bore the legend, *“Peoria, 12; Omaaha, 3,” Manager Dracket was seen leaving the grounds swelled up to aldérmanic proportions and wearing a smile that was as full of beamy lights as the rainbow. Russ McKelvey was the umpire 1 remember of hearing my grandfather tell . how he uscd to watch Russ through a knot Tole in the fence at Allegheny play ball nearly 100 years ago. But yesterday he didn't look a day older than 21, and he umpired a_game that would have made King Gaff hide his face in shame could he have secn it. It was perfect. But the game. IT WAS ENDED RIGHT HERE. Seery, who draws a pension for meritori- ous service in the old French and Indian war, was the first man up. He had his massive eye and eagle brain with him. Em- mett Is a firm believer in that old cross-cut saw that everything comes to the man who waits. So he waited yesterday and Mr. Lyston gave him his base on balls. But it didn’t count. Jacko Bunion tapped one gently down to the pitcher, and Emmett was switched off at second, and Jacko at first. It was one of those brilliant doubles that always evokes applause, and Messrs, Lyston, Wright and Purvis received it in liberal quantities. Big McVey shared a like fate, Major Mul- ton of Cincinnati slamming him out at first, The Moonshiners then tried their hand and there was trouble instanter, Shaffer, a_grandson of the Orator’ the first to face our little Boxcar. Ho made a picture of indescribable beauty 28 he balanced himself on his big toe and lifted his club on high. Shaf has a nose that resembles a Saratoga trunk, and his mouth looks like the entrance to the Mam- moth cave. He is little, but oh my! Boxy freed a couple of wide ones, then sent in a straight one, and Shaffer pushed it tenderly, but safely, out in the vicinity of Mr. Wood. Somers perished on a slow one to Boxy, wWho threw him out at first. , was NUMBER 9. Send or bring FOUR coupons and ten e in cotn to (his oftice and recoive the of this u the st told by th SERIES NO.

But why go into harrowing detalls? Pur- vis and Terrien followed with a brace | aplece and two runs were in and two men on_ba Wright sliced off three thin layers of at- mosphere and went and sat down, and Nul- ton took his place. There was a loud report and a little smoke, and the ball went whizzing out over Seery's head—and the fence, too. That made five runs in, more to win the game, But they were not satisfied yet, and after strychnining three of the Rourke children in quick secession in the second, they walked out into the garden, Maud, and plucked an- other. Nosey than enough life at Wood's ynn both single them in, but Shaffer lost his hands, but Somers and F! Purvis tried hard to bring only wrenched his wishbone in the effort Seery caught his long, high fly way out against the fence, Then Terrien, the ter- rier, poked ont a safe one and Somers trotted home with Peoria’s sixth run. OUR ONLY RAY OF LIGHT. In the fourth the Rourke family their first and only runs—tree of ‘em. Wood opened up by viclously slashing the wind fnto ribbons. Lyston curled them around his swan-like neck too quick and smooth for him. The next moment Papa Rourko was presented with a bag, and the tearless Fear smashed out a rattling single, Omaha's first hit. Then Billy Moran tickled the pigskin for a four-timer, and we had done our dirtiest. Not 80 with the gang from Boozeville They kept right on gathering shells by the seaside, just as if life was but one long summer day. They got two In the fourth, one in the fifth and three in the ninth, after two men were out. It was dis way. See! The Terrier got his base by reason of a hod-carrying error by Paddy Boyle, who, by the way—or the drinks, it makes little dif- ference which—has fallen off materially in his play lately. Mr. Wrong struck out and Nulton made a hit, on which, however, Moran threw the Terrier out at third, Ryan then took a kink out of Boxy, and Lyston knocked the ball over the fence. Sad, wasn't it? Thus was the Rourke family routed. But they have nobody to blame but themselves, and possibly nine robust athletes from the scene of my earllest duck shooting. But really they deserved defeat. Boxy couldn't pitch hay, and his pals hit and fielded like a lot of puddlers; in fact their work re- minded me of the game as it was played ‘way back in 1812, when Jim White, Jack Nelson, Tom !York, ,Cal McVey, Tommy Poorman and Monk Cline were heroes. But kecp your eye on us tomorrow after- noon, and watch us break Colonel Bracket's heart. Whitey's goin’ to pitch. Here Is a relic of yesterday's wreck: OMAHA, R. 1B. SH. SB.

Forty to One Lands the Coin in the First Race at the Fair Grounds. ST. LOUIS, May 10.—A heavy track with a raw west wind and but an ordinary crowd at the fair grounds today brought out only the mast confirmed_of speculator: and even these did scarcely enough betting to keep the pencillers awake. The events were all lacking in excitement, not one of the finishes being particularly close. The first race went to a 40 to 1 shot, the favor- ite, Acilojam, never showing. In the second Miss Alice, an odds on favorite, landed her backers' money, as did the well backed ccond choice, Chiswick, in the third. Cass, to 1, took the fourth from Parquette, 9 to by’ a length, and the fifth was Billy Sunderland’s easily. The sixth went to My Partner, a 10 to 1 shot, and so the talent broke dlmost even on’ the day's work.

NEW YORK, May 10.—The rules com- mittee appointed last November to make rules governing the playing of foot ball has adopted a set that will hereafter govern the game. Among the changes proposed by the committes and adopted by the Univer- sty club are: In rule 1, section E, a punt is made a kick out with the drop kick and place kick; in rule 6, the words “without touching the dress or person or player after the kick” are omitted in regard to the ob- taining of a goal; rule 8 makes the use of a signal necessary by the man intending to make a fair catch before that counts aw such. Rule 15 provides %r the duties of the umpire, referee and lineman, making the umpire’s decision in foul and fair tac- ties final, often referring to both referec and lineman if he so desires and the referee judge of the position and progress of the ball. Al coaching along the line is pro- hibited, the lineman will keep time, is time- keeper under the direction of the referee.

Mr, Grebe contracted a severe cold, which rapidly developed into pneumonia, which cause of his death. The decawsed was 66 years old, and had been a resident of this city since 1861, The funeral will take place from Masonic hall Saturday at 2 p. m.

Va., where he worked in a carrlage shop until April, 1 During that year the de- ceased moved to Davenport, Ia., and re- mained In Scott county until May, 18 when he moved to Nebraska, settling at Florence June 11, 1857. In November, 1861 Mr. Grebe moved to Omaha and engaged in the wagon making business. He was a member of the territorial legislature in 1860, 1861, 1863 and 1864. He was also city treasuror of Florence in 1569, From April, to April, 1864, Mr. Grebe was a the Omaha city council. In s elected sheriff of Douglas county, and retained that position until 1873, during which time he arrested and successfully prosecuted the _notorious William Jones, alias “‘Canada Bill,” the smoothest three-card monte man who ever operated in the west. This arrest virtually broke up the three-card monte gang in Nebrask In 187 deceased was appointed a mem- ber of constitutional convention. In January, 1878, he was appointed deputy sherlff under George H. Guy, which position he held for four years, and was then first deputy under Sherift Dave N. Miller for the same period of time. When William Co- burn was elected sheriff Mr. Grebe was his deputy for two years. Sheriff Boyd like- wise made Mr. Grebe his deputy, as did also Sherift_Drexel Mr. Grebe was married in Davenport, Ia., April 24, 1855, to Miss Emilie Louise Cor- nelia Kroeger of Davenport, a daughter of a prominent Lutheran minister.

He was a Royal Arch Mason, and was the first Ncble Grand of the first German lodge of Independent Order of Odd Fellows organized in the state.

After tho Compal Yesterday afternoon Judge Dundy of the federal court appointed Philip Potter re- ceiver of the American Loan and Trust company, an institution located in the New York Life building. Application for the appointment of a re- ceiver was made by eastern parties who held the majority of the stock. The cause of the financial condition of the concern was due to too heavy ments in some of the boom towns of Texas. AMUSEMENTS. oking Affairs of a Loan Concerts such as that given last night at Boyd’s by the Ellen Beach Yaw Concert company are very certain to grow tiresome, particulary when the audience persists in demanling encores to every num- ber, when the merit of the num- ber hardly demanded more than a passing notice. The concert of last evening was only remarkable in the perfection shown by Miss Yaw in governing her vocal organs, which are really phenomenal. She has a beautiful lyric style, which was best seen in a catchy French chanson sung with charm- ing inscucience, her notes ranging as high as A, being of liquid sweetness. But the passion was totally lacking and as for dram- atic understanding the young singer showed little of the fire necessary to make a big number like Ambroise Thomas' scene from “Hamlet” stand out prominently. It needs artists like Melba, Eames, Nordica, of the modern school, to reflect what was in the composer’s mind when he wrote his opera around the melan- choly Dane. One cannot help, however, con- gratulating the artiste upon the evenness of her scale and the exquisite temal qualities displayed in quite a wide range of songs, in- cluding such old timers as “Comin’ Thro’ the Rye,” The Last Rose of Summer,” contrasted with the “Villanelle” of Dell'” Acqua, and the mad scene from “Hamlet.” Miss Yaw's long residence in Paris and her study of the French methods has left little of her London training discernible, which, while her tones are like some perfectly tuned instrument, lack the soul, the heart of her countrymen and women. Great things were expected from Maximil- ian Dick, presumably because of his Spanish name and memories of that great Spaniard, Sarasate, rose in the mind with pleasurable hopes that Mr. Dick might reflect somewhat the genius of that great master of the king of instruments. But Mr. Dick gave little evidence of ever having heard Sarasat' play or any of the great masters of the violin. His first num- ber, the “Ballade and Polonaise” of Vieux- temps, was played with only ordinary abil- ity, although technically he showed the value of hard and conscientious work. Bazzini’s scherzo was somewhat better done, but his encore number, a mazurka by Musin, was ex- pressionless to a degree. Mr. Dick may be ac- ceptable to the small towns entour, but Omaha | has half a dozen violinists who can play that gentleman’s repertoire infinitely better in | every vay, and yet Omaha fails to give these | men’ the support their merit deserves. Miss | Lay bravely struggled with Liszt and Chopin, which were far beyond her ability, her best work, however, being done in the accom- paniments. She too showed a desire to gratify the audience with encores, thereby in creasing the length of the program, which to say the least was uninteresting viewed from a musical standpoint. e D A Plensant Affair. The upholsterers and mattress makers gave the third ball of the season last night at | Washington hall. About 150 couples were there and a pleasing program of dancing was indulged in, after which refreshments were had. e PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS, H. T.

No candidates were in the fleld, and conse. quently no special Interest was taken In the clection. The American union party had five candidates and six others ran independ ently. Of the regular ticket threo wer clectod, one whom, a Kanaka, Is a descendant of the old reigning family, the Kamehamehas, and the last of his race. The cumulative ballot system was used, and 7,747 votes were cast. As each voter was allowed six votes, the total vote was 1,201 out of a possible 1,700. The Portuguese voted solidly for their two candidates, and elected both. Returns from the other islands are not yet in, but as there was very little opposition to the American union party ticket, no contest s expected. G. B. Wilson, the ex-queen’s marshal, has been arrested on a charge of being accessory before the fact in a mayhem case. Wilson, 0 was present at a barroom fight in which a “tough” royalist and an annexationist were the prineiples, is sald to have encour- aged his royalist friend, advising him to “Kill the annexationist.”” During the melee the royalist bit a piece out of his opponent's ear. Wilson is suspected of having incited the fight. He was released on $1,000 bail, and his case comes up today. Admiral Walker and his staff have been spending considerable time at Pearl Harbor recently making soundings and inspecting the surrounding country. No definite loca- tion has yet been decided upon for the naval station, fn spite of reports to the contrary. A number of prominent royalists have set June 1 as restoration day. It is stated that they expect to be fully armed by that time, and if no help is received from the United States they intend to make an attack on the provisional government. The government officials take no stock in the rumor, however. The sand bags, which have surrounded the executive building ever since last December, have been removed, and the military foree is being gradually reduced. passed royalist of LATEST FROM 5§, A Apia Frightened by a Rumored Rebelll s Tribesmen. (Correspondence of the Associated APIA, Samoa, April 25.—(Per Steamer Alameda, via San Francisco, May 10.)—No fighting among natives has occurred since the last correspondence. Last Sunday night | a great scare was caused by information that the rebel party was in the brush about two miles from Apia and was about to attack the town. The natives made immediate prep- arations to resist, while the forcigners ar- ranged to board the ships in the harbor. Both the British and German war vessels got ready and had armed parties prepared to land. It was then discovered that the entire excitement had been caused by the fears of one or two individuals, who had seen a small party of armed men in the brush and had magnified_them into an army. The German warship Falke arrived here April 15 after a quick passage from Sydney, having been sent to protect German interests in Samoa. The Curacon (British) arrived April 21 to per- form a like duty for British intercsts. It is confidently believed that their presence will be effective in preventing bloodshed for the present. The cessation of hostilities among the na- tives is probubly due to the united efforts of the American, British and German consuls, who have shown a marked capacity for deal- ing with the difficuities of the unpleasant situation. They persuaded both parties of natives to return to their homes, and though the feeling of discontent among the natives is as strong as ever, the probabilities of hos- tilities now appear to be remote. Much indignation is felt here at the slan- derous attack on Chief Justice Ide in a cable- gram from Auckland April 3. It was stated | that the chief justice and his treatment of certain prisoners was the cause of the war. The correspondent of the Associated press says that these statements have no founda- tion whatever. It appears to have been in- spired by personal or political malice. Two weeks ago eight of the rebel prisoners who had been sentenced by Chief Justice Ide es- caped from prison, having been assisted by the native guards, who also deserted, taking with them a quantity of ammunition. They have not been recaptured. Assault by Press.)
