We took another fall the Tilinots crowd yesterday. Up to ninth inning it was as pretly a game of ball as any one could wish to see. The visitors played as though they had some designs on the game, and President McVittie's aggregation put up a game that would win anywhere. The vis- itors, however, were unable to hit White- Bill with any effect, while the home team batted like tigers. We started right after the game in the first inning. ry andMunyun got a quar- tet of bad balls aplece and then McVey tapped out a single towards the. left field fence. Seery was nipped in a commendable effort to sneak home on the play, but Fear made it up by lining out a hot one that brought both runners home. ‘MeFarlan flelded Rourke out at first and Fisher took care of Moran's fly. The Suckers went out easy and then a couple of hits with a base on balls yielded two more runs for the Omahas. Quincy scored once in the third. Fisher made a clean single and Thorpe cracked a hot one In an apparently safe spot between Munyun and McVey. Everybody started to score a hit, but Munyun made a running from the plckup of the ball that brought down the grand stand and Thorpe had to go to the bench. Krehmeyer made the hit that brought Fisher home, and then a fly catch by Munyun and DuShane's thre out retired the side. We tallied three times in the fourth on a couple of hits, an error and Munyun’s homer over the left field fence. A couple of clean hits netted the visitors one in the seventh, and then matters progressed very peaceably until the ninth, when the local Dball tossers gave the visitors a little exhibi- tion of what they could do when they felt tike it. McFarlan made a beautiful one- hand catch of Seery's fly and then Rourke's aggregation unbottled a case of base hits that gave the visitors a touch of snakes. Singles, two-baggers and home runs followed cach other in such quick suc- cossion that the Suckers lost their heads entirely and a quartet of glaring errors marred an otherwise brilliant fielding game. Nine runs crossed the plate and then we stopped from sheer weariness and saved the rest for today. The last game of the series will be played this afternoon. The game will be called at 3 o'clock to allow the visitors to catch a train, and as it will be the last home game for a time there should be a good crowd out to see them make it three straight. The Omahas will go away for a two weeks' trip tomorrow, and then they come back and play ‘@ series with Lincoln. Score: OMAHA. ADB. R. BH. PO.

CLIFFORD GETS A BAD START Western Crack Practically Left at the Post and Was Never a Factor In the Race—Track Ofeclals Al Placed Under Arrest. BROOKLYN, May 15.—A better day could not have been desired for the opening of the race season in New York state and | the running of the great Brooklyn Handicap, | valued at $25,000, at the Gravesend track | today. The sun rose with a clear sky, be- lying the promise of the night before, and the air was clear as a bell and a warm breeze swept across the track. At 2 o'clock the horses named for the first race were hoisted on the bulletin board, and the 112 bookmakers, three more than the best on record, began chalking up the orders. Out on the lawn when the race was called there was a sea of heads, their owners packed so close together that it looked like a solid mass, and others were struggling to get out in the ring, where they could see a small part of the race. It was estimated then by good judges that at least 40,000 were present, and many were going home unable to get anywhere near the track. It was the biggest day in the his- tory of the Brooklyn Jockey club and must have been an immense money getter, for nearly all paid their admission, the free passes having been reduced by at least 75 per cent. The place was crowded with Tadies, not one of whom got in without pay- ing. Just before the first race was run an offi- cer appeared at the Gravesend track and notified President P. J. Dwyer that a warrant had been issued for his arrest and told him that he must appear before Justice Walsh in Brooklyn tomorrow morning to answer. No arrests of bookmakers were made, JUDGES WERE ARRESTED. Just before the third race was run De Lacey again made his appearance. This time he was in greater force, for Sherift Butling, with a host of deputies, came on with warrants which were likely to take him the whole afternoon to serve. The sherift and his deputies went into the judge’s stand_enclosure and had a_talk with Presi- dent Dwyer and Secretary Melntyre, but the two latter refused to state the object of the visit. It was apparent, however, immediately after the race was run, for the judges, Colo- nel Simmons, Clarence McDowell and Victor Smith, were arrested after they placed the horses in the third race, and in company with John M. Bowers, counsel to the club, and Senator McCarthy were driven to the town hall in Gravesend,where bail was given, and they were released after some delay*had been caused to the Brooklyn handicap. Sher- iff Butling had other warrants, and it was said that he intended to arrest the other officials, but he rested content with the ar- rest of three judges and went away from the track. An effort was made to discover the character of the affidavits on which the war- rants were issued, but further than an un- official statement that it was for conducting a lottery nothing was learned. During the rest of the day there was little excitement and the races proceeded without delay. It was a few minutes past 5 o'clock when the candidates for the $25000 stake began to move up. When the horses were all at the post the spectators settled down for a long wait, for Starter Rowe had not been doing any better thus far than he did last year. THEY. ARE OFF. Thirty-two long minutes the assemblage waited ‘and fumed, apd then, mmediately after d long break, Rowe dropped his flag, swishing through the air, and the start was made. And such a start as it was. Low- lander, tho winner of last year's Suburban, was standing still, and did not get away at all, while Clifford, the heavily backed fa- vorite, seemed to be practically left at ‘the post. A howl arose from the crowd, for they saw that with such a disadvantage it was an imposibility for the western champlon to do anything whatever. Copyright was the first away, with Henry of Navarre second, Herald third, Dr. Rice fourth, Blitzen fifth and the others bunched as follows: Banquet, Sir Walter, Comanche, Ajax, Bassetlaw and Diablo, while Clifford and Sport were al- most standing still, although they got in motion immediately and started on a stern, hopeless chase. Down the stretch they ran, gathering speed with every bound and thun- dering past the judges' stand, a quarter mile from the post, with all running well, Copy- right, with his mouth wide open, ahead, in front of Dr. Rice, whom Taral had taken into second place. Half a length away was Henry of Navarre under an easy pull, with Herald and the despised Blitzen following closely behind. There was a bunch in_this order: Banquet, Comanche, Ajax, Sir Wal- ter, Bassetlaw and Diablo. Twenty lengths behind were Clifford, the pride of the west, and Sport in the dust kicked up by the others, with no chance of winning unless all the leaders fgll. A groan went up from the thousands who had het, for Clifford was now without even a chance of having a run for their money. It was disheartening to the owners of the crack, who had sent him so far for the race. Around the turn they flashed with yery little jostling for sq sharp a turn and so narrow -a track, and when the half-mile mark yas reached and they were straight- ened ‘out for the run through the back streteh Dr. Rice was a head In front of Copyright, and thus far a very few inches only had separated their noses as they ran side by side so closely that a blanket would have covered both. Two lengths behind was Henry of Navarre, a head in front of Herald, and all running easily. SIR WALTER MOVES UP. Blitzen was still hanging on to fifth place in good style, while Doggett thought It was about time to bring Sir Walter up and he was sixth at the half-mils, Comanche was still in the seventh place. Banquet had fallen back to eighth and Ajax was be- ginning to hold out signals of distress in the ninth. Bassetlaw and Diablo followed and Sport and Clifford were far in the rear, un- able to gain an inch on the flying fleld. They passed the three-quarters mark with Henry of Navarre In the lead, a head in front of Copyright, with Dr. Rice within striking distance, Taral handling him iy a masterly fashion. Sir Walter was fourth and Basset- law was becoming dangerous, for he moved up five pegs and looked good for much more. Comanche was sixth, Banquet seventh and Diablo elghth. The 'mile was covered by Navarre In 1:42, and he was a head In front of Dr. Ric:, who had come up. Copyright had dropped back to sixth place. Sir Walter was a length behind Dr. Rice and two lengths behind Bassetlaw, who was ‘still very much in the race. The athers were running In the order they passed the three- | quarters pole and completely out of it. Into the stretch the horses flew, Sir | Walter and Bassetlaw getting whip and spur. Dr. Rice began to wear down the gallant 3-year-old and Clayton was urging Navarre to lis utmost, but his horse was stopping fast under him, Bassetlaw was hanging on to Sir Walter, with Comanche close be- hind. The frantic yells from the crowd were heard, and, as the watch ticked 2:074, Dr. Rice, the castoff from the Gideon & Daly stable, flashed under the wire a length in fron: of Henry of Navarre, with the great Sir Walter one and a half lengths be- hind and two lengths in front of Bassetlaw. Comanche was fifth and the others any- where, all in the stretch. Hats went into the air, | yoar in wuccession Taral | Boral jockey's chair and crowd. It was a true run race and well.won.

It probably improved the track, laying the dust and leaving it | n other events on today’s card indlcates. Lexington, the Dlue Grass capital, had not sent a local champion this year to contend for the Blue Ribbon and Turf stakes, but as the Falsetto colt, Chant, came from the Lexington to this course they supported him as against the Louls- ville trained horse, rather than be without | a champion. — This support and the fact that practical turfmen, who regard racing | as a business and not' from a sentimental standpoint, favored a horse who had al- ready run and won as against unknown | quantities who had not faced the flag save m their 2-year-old form, made Chant a | prohibitive fayorite, and the result of the race showed the wisdom of the judgment | of the many, as Chant “won all the way® as he pleased, and might have easily dis- posed of a much better fleld than he met today. Pat, the Scoggans’ colt, while of good enough quality to have made the race in- teresting, was withdrawn today on ac- count of a split off sustained in exercising. The horses got away at the second break, Tom Elmore making the most of a running start and showing half a dozen lengths in | the van for the first quarter, when Pearl | Song took up the running and showed the way to the stand. Hers Chant drew up with the bunch, and was in front for the run up the back stretch, and, running easy under Goodale's restraining pull, he kept just in front of his field into the stretch, At this point, the last quarter of the dis: tance, the bunch had become a procession, and Chant, easily stalling off the chal: lenges .of Pearl Song and Sigurd, galloped down to the finish and won by a good six lengths from Pearl Song, who was ten | in good condition, as the time made lengths In front of Sigurd. Al Boyer was fourth and Tom Klmore was so bad a | fitth that he would have been distanced had the flag been used. The fractional time was as follows. three- quarters, 1:18%; mile, and a quarter, 2:13%; mile dnd a half, 2:1. The value of ‘the’ stake to the winner was $4,020. The winner is by Falsetto and is the property of E. Leigh, who also owns the great Bramble handicap horse, Clifford. Pearl Song, the second horse, IS also b Falsetto. ~ This is' fhe first of Falsetto's get to win a place fn the Kentucky Derby, excepting Galifel, who ran second to Mac- beth in 188S. 19 110 The other five races on today’s card were divided between fayorites and outsiders, the second race, wop, by the 2-year-old [mp, Glenelg filly Elize, proving the *good thing” of the day, as she received good backing from her stable following at from 30 to 1 to 20 to 1.

Y STATE SPORTSME 'S SHOOT Large Gathering of Nebraska Devotees of the Scatter Gun, PROFESSIONAL ELEMENT DIDN'T COME High Winds Make Gilt Edge Scores a Rur- Ity—Next Tournament Will Be Hold In Omaha—Ofcers Elected for the Coming Year. COLUMBUS, May 15.—(Special Telegram to the Bee)—The nineteenth annual tourna- ment of the Nebraska State Sportsmen’s as- soclation opened up here on the local club's shooting grounds this morning under as favorable auspices as has distinguished any of the former shoots. In fact, there is. one noticeable feature about the present tour- nament that has always been absent at these annual gatherings, and that is an entire absence of foreign professional talent. A large majority of the participants arc pure- Iy Nebraska sportsmen, and those who are here from adjoining states have never fig- ured with any degree of conspicuity within the expert ranks, Heretofore such sure thing artists as “Chippy”* Budd, Rolla Hicks, 8. A. Tucker, Fred Quimby, Charlie Grim, Jim Elliott, Sedam, Mechling Haywood, and a score of others were always on hand, and were always “in and in" on all the events. This, of course, was discouraging to the local shots of lesser caliber, and many of the events would dwindle down to a simple strife between professionals. This spring thers are none of these familiar old faces on exhibition, yet there are a number of local shots here who take rank with the finest shots in the country, noticeably Frank 8. Parmclee, G. W. Loomis, C. E. Latchshaw, Ted Ackerman, H. B. Kennedy, J. C. Read, “Uncle” Den, J. C. Duer, Pete Simpsow and others, and while the shoot- ing will in all probability be up to the high- est standard, the best of feeling prevails and the different events will be well filled. The local club, which consists of G. B. Speice, G. A. hroeder, A. G. and H. J. Arnold, J. 8. Wells and D. F. Davis, have made all their arrangements with the very best judgment, and the shooters are lavish in_their praise. The attendance here this morning is fully up to that of the first day of any previous meeting, and promises to be doubled when the evening trains are all in. Among those on the grounds are: Frank Parmelee, W. H. S. Hughes, Goodley Brucker, Fred Blake, J.C. Read, Will Townsend, H.'B. Kennedy, J. W. Gwin, George W. Loomis and O. E. Epinetter of Omaha; Emil Leuck, Ted Ack- erman, August Loerke, J. A. Earhart and W. M. Brown, Stanton; C. E. Latchshaw and George Anna Rogers, Lincoln; A. C. Conners, John Roth and Billy Kear, Central City; Perry Woodcox, Fremont; E. D. Trit- ter, ‘Kingsley, Ia.; J. W. Den, Arapahoe; Uncle W. T. Den, Brownville; Colonel George Andrews, Chicago; Sport Charlie McCord, St. Louis; J. G. Hillberry, G. A. Evans, W. J. Organ, Beaver Crossing; W. S. Duer, Has- tings; J. C. Miller, York; Dan Bray, Syra- cuse; Pete Simpson, St. Edwards, and a large number of others whase names are not just now obtainable. The day would have been perfect for the sport had It not been for the wind, which came from the south in a veritable hurri- cane, sweeping straight across the target range and dead away from the live bird traps, rendering good scores a rarity. This was noticeable especially in the target events, and the ridiculously low scores of some of the very best shots is thus accounted for. The Meridan hotel, by reason of a handsome contribution on the part of its genial proprietor, John @. Pollock, was made - the headquarters of the visiting sportsmen, and right royally ara they being taken gare of. The morning eard was inaugurated with seven live birds, American association rules, $5 entrance, which resulted as follows: Brucker . .1022122-§ Simpson . 11102205 Miller . 101100 14 Parmelee . 11122127 Ackerman 01121126 Duer . 11111312311 Connol 01201115 Rogers 012200 24 Bray . 10021116 “‘Pens: 00012103 Den, J.
