S ewith his tenants, and some of them com- plain bitterly of the manner in which they have been oppressed by their landlord. One of these s Georgia Patton, who occupled one of these places. Some time ago Georgla became sick, and on the advice of her physician she determined to go to Colorado for the benefit of her health. 8he disposed of her effects to India Allen, taking a mort- gage_to secure notes for the amount of the purchasing price, but she left the notes with India for safe keeping. Times got hard with Indla and she ran behind with h rent. Martin urged payment in his usual persuasive manner, and fn order to insure herself a few days peace India gave him the notes and mortgage belonging to Georgia Patton. India faded out of sight shortly afterward, and when Miss Patton returned she found Martin in full possession of the place, and she has brought sult to recover her property. A TYPICAL CASE. “Some time ago Nellle King owned the furnishings and fixtures fn the house at 115 North Ninth street. Jennie Holmes pur- chased the outfit, agresing to pay $18,000, of which $10,000 was for furniture and $8,000 to secure the payment of the rental, which amounted from $300 to $500 per month. Times were not as flush as once they were, and Jennle found it hard work to strike a cash balance at the end of the month on her books. She had paid $4,000 on the furniture and became convinced that she had been cheated In buying the household effects. She and Nellie had some trouble about their agreement, but they finally agreed to settle all clalms for $2,000 in addition to what she had already paid, and she paid $500 more on the contract at the time of the last agree- ment. This left a balance due Nellle King of $1,600, but the payments were not met yegularly, and she threatened to foreclose on Jennle and oust her from the premises. Then Mr. Martin is alleged to have come around and persuaded Jennie to give him A bill of sale on the fixtures in the house, such as gas and electric fixtures, large mirrors set in the walls, and marble mantles, which could not be removed without sustaining serious damage. Then Martin managed to socure the notes held by Nellie King against Jennle. As the paper was not being pald promptly he threatened to throw Jennle and her things out into the streets, unless ghe settled. She secured an Injunction agalnst Martin, who then sought the aid of the courts to remove Jennte, He took the furniture out, or rather had a deputy sheriff do it, and although an inmate of the house was lying in one of the upper rooms with her leg broken, the place was despoiled of its fine furnishings, with the exception of the room in which the girl lay. She was re moved the next day. The goods belonging to Jennle were offered for salp, and Martin §¢ sald to have bought them in for about $600, although he was trying to collect more than $1,500 from Miss Folmes, Mr. Martin §s alleged to hold claims for considerable amounts against nearly every woman who is unfortunate enough to have been his tenant in the burnt district.” e e L BREVITIES _Charles Jacobsen of Pender, destined for Hed Onk, Ta., fell In with a_confidence man in the city Friday and last $20. _“Poverty, Its Cause and Cure,” will be “the theme of the address at the services of the Church of Truth in the Board of Trade bullding this afternoon at 3 o'clock.

MAGNIFICENTLY ILLUSTRATED. — RACES AT THE PARK ENDED Fair Oard Presented to Face Lovers at Union Park Yestorday, TALENT BADLY OFF ON ONE EVENT Hot Weather Had a Rather Depressing Et- fect on Those Who Attended—-Diok Tiger Makes His First Winning During the Meeting. Yesterday was the closing day of the races at Union Driving park, and that the people knew of the fact was attested by the large turnout from Council Bluffs and Omaha, The races were 80 good all the way through as to form a fitting close for a meeting, which, while the first for a number of years, has demonstrated that the people of this vicinity will patronize good races If they have a chance, The first race of the afternoon, five and one-half furlongs, was uneventful. Hoodoo was pulled out before the start, thus leav- ing Ed Connolly, Coleraine, Georgla Hamlin and Flora B in the running. Coleraine was in the lead when the flag fell, but Bd Connelly overhauled him during the first eighth of a mile, and came in a winner in 1:10%. Coleraine came in second and Georgla Hamlin_ third. There were nine entrles in the second race, three furlongs, but Henry Fry, Mistle- toe and Tim were drawn, leaving Barl, Bill L, Dick Tiger, Buck Walker, Jake Ingle- man and Maud Johnson to run. Buck Walker and Dick Tiger were refractory, and it took twenty-five minutes of scoring to get them started together. When they once did get started, however, the race was a beauty. Dick Tiger and Buck Walker came down the home stretch almost to- gether, and passed under the wire with the former about a head in the lead. Maud Johnson third. ‘The race was the first ;\'un%lly Dick Tiger at this meeting. Time: In the third race, five-eighths of a mile, Negus was drawn. Dr.. Briggs was the favorite, so far as betting was concerned, although the “bookies” would only quote 2 to 5 against him. The bookies guessed wrong. World's Fair led during. the first half of the running, but after the last turn had been passed Council Plat woke up and the first thing the crowd knew he had the race in his inside pocket. Time: 1:03%. Dr. Driggs second, and World's Fair and Tommy H strung along behind. The mile race was one in which the spec- tators were particularly interested. There were four starters, Royalty, Yankee Ban, Long Tom and Henry R, Sight Draft being drawn. Long Tom was the horse on which the pool-sellers gave the short odds, and he won the race in 1:4 He did it so casily, moreover, that it was evident he could ‘have pared off a couple of seconds or 0 if he had felt disposed to do so. The fifth race, four and one-half furlongs, wound up the day's work. After Dixie B had been puiled out, Lillie Lochiel, Idle Boy, Jack Rogers and Mollie Penny were left. Idle Boy was the favorite, but he indulged in too much monkey business while they were getting started. . The quartet started out neck and neck, but Jack Rogers got a slight lead very soon. Then up came Mollie Penny, and she held first place until the elose, making the distance in 5% seconds. Lillie Lochiel- took second place, and Jack Rogers third, the favorite holding up last place, The crowd had been melting with the heat all afternoon, and as soon as the race was over it took but a few seconds for it to melt away " entirely. -Even the girls of the “bon ton,” who have bean so steady in thefr at« tendance and have won so many of the uarters and halt dollars of their young gen- lemen friends, lost no timo in bidding a lopg farewell to the excitement of the track. Judge Loper leaves today - for - Denver, where he will officiate as starter for the races there this week. N WINS THE RACE. Ctub Member's Handicap Goos to the Gallant Little Kenda Mare. ST. LOUIS, June 2—Today was Club Member's handicap, and the Kendall sta- ble's colors are tonight defluntly promi- nent, for Yo Tambien, that gallant littie mare whose name is familiat to every goer, carrled them to victory in a con test only rivalled here for brilliancy by the perfomance of Wadsworth two years ago, when he won the same event,in the same time as made: today, 2:08. The crowd gath- ered rapidly, and before the first race on the card ihere were fully 12000 in tns grand stand and on the grourids, all im- patient for the principal event, third on the list. During the hour given for the betting on the handicap there was a swel- tering mass of humanity nearly all seem- ing o be wanting to back the brave littie mare who so soon justified their judgment. Yo Tambien was soon backed down froni 5 to4 to 4 to 5, Ida Plekwick closing sec- nd choice at § to 5; Ray § third at 6 to 1, Kildeer next at 15, then Service at 2, Chis- wick at 80 and Dolly McCone at ). At the call to the post the seven who were to confend for the stake paraded down the track past the stand to the start, receiv- ing a warm greeting. They were not long in getting away, Chiswick showing in front, Service second, Kildeer third, with Ray S, Ida Pickwick, Dollie McCone and Yo Tan bien in_the order named. At the quarter, run in 243, Service had moved to first, witl Kildeer and Ray S following, Yo Tambie reaching fourth place and Tda Piekwics falling back a point. At the half Kildeer was in front, Service second, Yo Tambien third, To thé next quarter they ran on, Yo Tambien coming up to the front, and from that to the finish the Kendall stable's colors remained constantly in front. Arouna the track they thundered in a vain en- deaver to race the chestnut out, Overton working Ray 8 for all he was worth, while R. Willlams on Ida Pickwick. try as he would, could get little beyond the tail end. Into the stretch they came, pounding faster and faster, Ray 8 working up to Yo Tam- bien's flank and then to her neck, but no further, for Jordan was riding to win, ana win he did in a rattling finish by a head, carrying off the handsome floral sadde prepared for the winning boy. Ray 8 was second, Kildeer third, and Chiswick got fourth' money. Tda Fickwick finished solutely last. Time by quarters: 24, 48 5%, 1:421, 2:08. Of the other events four were' won by favorites, one by a second cholce and one by an outsider. In the steeplechase Repeater finished in front, but having falled to make one of the jumps was disqualified.

CINCINNATI, June 2—Four thousand people watched the seven races at Latonia this afternoon run over a fast track and in excellent time. It was a great day for Holloway & Murphy's stable, three of their horses—Anna, Faraday and Pocs- hontas—landing $3,600, Including the Ripple stakes, All three were made favorites by the crowd. Four favorites won today. Brahma (8 to ©) in the first race and Par- quelte (2 to 1) in the sixth failed to got & mark, while the favorite, Captain Drane, in the final event could’ come no better than third, Anna ran the greatest race of the day. It ‘was the second on the card. Tremona, Little Ed and Interlor had Anna in a pocket until within seventy yards of the ‘wire, when she suddenly bréke through and nipped Tremona just under the wire, Winning by & nose. Volt gave Pocahontas a hard fight in the stake race, and Martin, on Volt, “claimed he hud been fouled by itay, on Pocahontas, but the judges re- fused to allow the clalm.

RAMAPO WINS THE Taral Rides Another of § Races on the Old Stager. NEW YORK, June 2—All sorts of weather was the order today, when. 20,000 people went to Morrls park to see the run- ning of the Metropolitan handicap, tne second great event of the year. This time, however, the favorite won, and the many who had backed Ramapo Fred Taral rried off in the floral jockey's cf ered him as heartily as the: ple of weeks ago when, on Dr. Brooklyn. During the d en alternate sunshine and rain, ain did not commence great race had been run. The an was started In good time, in pite of the enormous fields which pre- 1it, and after maneuvering for awhile, the contestants got away to a falr start with Dr. Rice, Kingle, Ramapo, Don Alon: %0 und Henry of Navarre in the lead. Sport had acted well up to this point and then sulked a bit and was soon trailing behind his fleld. " Herald was a bad place " too. When the quarter was reached Kinglét was leading by a length, with Ramapo, inder heavy pull, second, two lengths in front ot Herald, who had moved up and was going steadily. The big hill was before them, and in the next quarter of a mile the welght was beginning to tell on some ot them, although the only ones to change places were Don Alonzo and Henry of Navarre. At the three-quarter mark King- let had dropped out of the contest, and was In sixth place, while Ramapo took the lead under a gentle pull, twe lengths in front of Henry of Navarre, who had come rushing to the front and was two lengtns in front of Dr. Rice, Don Alonzo halt a length, away, and Herald in sixth place. Into the stretch they came at a fine rate of speed, Ramapo still held the lead and Taral was sending him along as fast as he could, while Roche and Bassetlaw weis comiiig through like the wind and rapidiy cutting all the others down. There was no danger for the leader, however, for the further he went the better he seemed to run, and “he finally won by two good lengths, by no means all out. Roche gained steadily on Henry of Nuvarre, and just before the finish was reached headed him and took second place by half a length, with Basgetlaw two lengths away in fourth place. Dr. Rice was away back in the ruck, not belng able to carry the welght allotted, in #pite of the fact that Garrlson rode him. Sport was not in_running humor and tne others were not In the race at all after the stretch was reached.- It was a pretly Contest and the best horse won. Results: First race, six furlongs: Pochino (3 to 1) won, Memento colt (10 to 1) gecond, Dutch Skafer (7 to 1) third, Time: 1:11.

Money Ralsed and Many Entries Made for the Big Events of the Affair, CHADRON, Neb., June 2.—(Special to The Bee)—The 100 mile race and Western car- nival Is a sure go, the balance of the money for the purses having been raised. A one and one-third rate has been secured from the railroads and a large crowd is looked for. Among the riders who will be in the 100 mile race are John Berry, Doc Middleton, Joe Gillespie, Charlle Smith and Rattle- snake Pete, who rode in the 1,000 mile race from this place to Chicago last June. Nick Jants, jr, a well known half breed and stock’ man from the Pine Ridge agency, S. D., has entered a horse, as has that well known sporting _gentleman, Mike Elmore. The “Catfish Kid,” “Highpockets,” Sam Bass, Red Shirt, Charlie Nebe, Jim Hart- zell, Baldy Ellenwood, Judge Nesbitt, Long John and Tom Hunt have already entered and it is confidently expected the entries will reach forty before the race starts. The agency round-up is just starting and quite a number of the Indians in it were at this place today. They state at least 500 Indians will be here to attend the car- nival, The Indian race of the third day will be one of the most interesting fentures to those who have never seen the native American in_ his home life and pursuits. The serles of dances which the Indians are to give will be unexcelled, as all of the best dan and young braves of Pine Ridge and Rosebud will be in attendance. Riding the festive broncho, wild steers and’ similar pastimes will occupy the sec- ond day, and to the people of the country who have never witnessed such exhibitions eXcept under canvasd it will be an innova- on. The entries for all the events will close June 4 at 6 p. m. IOWA WAS STRICTLY IN IT. University Athletes Make a Splendid Shows ing at the Chicago Interatnte Meet. CHICAGO, June 2.—(Speclal Telegram to The Bee)—Under the auspices of the Chi- cago Athletic association the first meet of the Western Intercolleglate Athletic . as- soclation at the South Side ball park was a splendid success, The University of Il nois carried oft the honors, taking mx firsts, two seconds and onme third. The University of Wisconsin came second, with the State university of lowa third ani Towa college fifth. While the honors of the meet fell to Chicago, llinols and Wiscoris:y universities, large from the number o‘ entries from each institution, the showlng made by the State university of Towa was remarkable. With a_team of only fifteen men, all of whom had engaged in the state colleglate games of Iowa on the previous day, and had traveled all night to partici- pate In thewe gwmes, her score fell only hree polnts behind that of Wiscqnsin, and three ‘st prizes were won by her boys. No Intercolleglate records were broken, s the course was very slow. J, V.

The cricket game pyesterday afternoon was played betw€dn [me'unm which will represent Omaha at Kearney In a couple of weeks and fifteen players taken from the remaining members of the club. The object of the game was to test the quality of the representative cleven, as also to ac- custom them to play together. It must not be supposed for a moment that the cleven men, captained by F. H. Marshall, are the best players in the club. This {8 by no means the case, as insupera- ble reasons prevent some of the men who were chosen to play on the Kearney team from doing The bowling talent in yesterday's game was about fairly divided between the two teams, even If Captain Marshall's men had the advantage in batting, which is a_moot point. The scores on both sides may be considered very presentable, the 152 runs made by the “winners belng the largest made this season. Mr. H. Lawrle's 7 and Mr. R. W. Taylor's 2 were the results of first-class ‘crickets. It affords great pleas- ure to the members of the club to see their president doing so well. He has the inter- ests of the club thoroughly at heart, and this, of itself, should he ample reason for those associated with him In the tented field to refolce at his success. Mr. Mar- shall's 7, Mr. A. Gavin's 9 and Rev. Lloyd's 6 were all the outcome of very creditable performances with the bat. The sixteen extras do not look well for the “long stopping’ of the losing side. The only two double figures on_the losing side were made by the brothers Young, Mr. P. Young making 21 and Mr. R. Young 13. Both these gentlemen batted in’ good style and punished loose bowling. George Vaughan's 9 and A. Brown's 6 were the only other two scotes worth mentloning on the losing side.

Thursday of this week is the last day for_sending..n..entriey, for -the city lawn tennts tournament. A1l residents of the city are entitled o compote. The weaker players will receive the advantage of a handicap, which will give every one a chance: of/ carrying off one of the prizes. No bme who' can wield a ricket should refraln from ‘entering. There will be no play before ‘5:30 each evening, o that tne tournament need not interfere with busi- ness. “Three events are on the program. There will _be gentlemen’s singles, gen'lemen's | doubles and ladies' and gentiemen's mixed doubles. The two_gentlemen's events are Dbotl handicaps. Nothing need be inferred from the fact that when the gentlemen \have o lady partner thev are mot cor- sidered ag needing any artificial handicip. | This ladles’ event, it may be said, ls ex- pected to prove the attraction of the meet- ing. It s alleged that there are no ladies in Omaha who have ever shown conspic- uous ability at the game, and it is hopea that this iden may be falsified before the forthcoming tournament is passed. If it Le true, however, the ladies should be all the more ready to embrace this opportunity to improve in order that such a thing may no longer be said of them. This will apply with equal force to the faint-hearted men players who think they play too weak a game to take part in a tournament. Thiy tournament_is expressly intended for just these men. ~And it will improve their play more than a month's practice on their own courts against the men they have played with all the season. A fee of 2 cents is charged for each entry, to go toward the cost of the prizes. Entries will close on Thursday next to the secretary, Mr. C. H. Young. The draw will take place on the evening of that day. Play will commence on the grounds of tha Omaha Lawn Tennis club, under whose auspices the tournament is being held, at 5:30 on Monday evening, June 11, Senson tickets for spectators aré now to be had. Good Road Raco at St, Louis, ST. LOUIS, June 2—Notwithstanding tne fact that there were a number of counter attractions, a large crowd of wheel en- thusiasts this afternoon went to see the seventy-three cracks who had come here from many of the prominent cities to com- ete for forty-eight prizes in the annual orest Park road race. The distance was seventeen and one-half miles and the road was In prime condition, good time being made by the winners.'

Subsequent to the game Friday afternoon Bill Rourke entfoed Thomas Jcffe:son Hiokey, the Lancaster county farmer, into a Douglas street lushing ken, and, after filling him up with lime juice, by insidious blandishment, soft words and caresses, induced him to re- main over here yesterday and play another game with Omaha's brave and brawny glad- fators. Bill told Thomas Jefferson that lightning had never been known to strike two or three times In the same place, and that if he would comb the hayseed out of his hired hands’ hair and rake the moss off their backs that he might make a creditable showlng before one of the large and metropolitan crowds which congregate daily at the Charles Street park. Thomas Jefferson was intoxicated with the idea, or the lime juice, I don't know which. Anyway, after Bill had finished, he grasped his honest hand, and, working it like a pump handle, promised to stay and try his luck once more. ow, you won't sneak out on the freight tonight, will you, Hick?’ asked Bill, half suspiclously, a8 he once more wrung Thomas Jefferson's hamlike paw, preparatory to part- ing. “No, 'deed an’ double, I won't. See, I'l cross my heart,” and Thomas Jefferson made an_imaginary X on his manly bosom.. Then they each took a plumb out of the dish on the bar and separated, Bill chuck- ling in flendish glee in his sleeve, and Thoma- Jefferson with a chest full of varied emotions. His brain was fevered and whirl- Ing with a superabundance of prunes and soda waler, and he almost trembled lko a leaf when he thought what a mighty being Bill Rourke was. So grand and.picturesque, 50 full of himself, so self-rellant and sus- taining, Thomas Jefferson wondered why there could be such inequality between the citizens of Lincoln and those of the metrop- olis, infinite as it is. When he untled his thoughts and let them roam back to the quiet streets of the capital he belleved he'd rather die than go back there before he won a game from Omaha. And secretly he swore he never could, and it was with this deter- mination he appeared at the ball park yes- terday afternoon. OPENED LIKE A BALL GAME. It was boiling hot, and yet there was a large crowd on hand’ to cheer their pets on to victory, and when the lackadalsical Mr. Seery ‘stepped up to the plate everybody settléd themselves for some rare excitement. They got it, in gobs. The Rourke children garnered no less than five great big greasy runs in less time than it takes to tell it, and of course the crowd was just simply bubbling over with fun. Thomas Jefferson sat on the bench, looking like a man about to be electrocuted. But his looks soon changed, for the way his hired men did saw wood, and roll 10gs, and husk corn’and pumpkins, and cut and stack and mow and thresh around when they once got started, was astonishing to behold. Thomas Jefferson flung aside that hang- dog look, and the smile he donned fn its place would have made a good load for a dray. Every time one of his farmer boys would face little Boxcar they would ask him, “How will you have it cut?’ “Does it hurt?’ or “Is your mamma in the stand?” Pcor little Boxcar. The white immortelles will soon bo sprinkled o'er his grave. He canvot certainly survive the vicious beating tlose clodhoppers gave him yesterday. lle didn’t last one inning, for after he had been basted for two singles, a three-bagger, three home runs and seven tallies, Bill got a pair of tongs and lifted him out of the box and threw him over the fence into the alley. Then High Five was called in and he floated 'em over until the inning was worn out, and in the second Alexander Hillwhite aid’ the act. And the farmers went at him just as if he was Boxy's ghost. and when they grew tired leaning up against his ins and outs they had just seven more runs to their credit. Thomas Jefferson by this time was mad with ecstacy, and every time Buck Ebright came near him he would clasp him 'round the neck and weep for very gladness. But why plunge any decper into this wocful business? Be content when I say the Farmers batted and ran bases like wild men, while the Rourke family played ball like ‘the old woman kept tavern in Indiana. IN THE GLOAMING. In the soft enchantment of cventide, when the rose-leaf clouds were' burning at_the zenith, the west filled with crimson ban- ners, ‘and the darkening shadows were creeping over the purple world, the Omahas scraped the dust oft thelr backs with an old piece of weatherboarding, and slowly and solemnly wended their way up Charles, and out across Seventcenth street, down into the Missouri's broad bottoms to mourn and lament the evils of the day. But Papa Bill lingered behind. In run- ning after a foul fly he forgot to pick up one of his feet, and stepped on it, and was very lame, So he lingered at the park gate and gazed and dreamed. The quiet of the scene was so soothing, the tranquillity so haly. Nature seemed with folded hands about to pray for him. But she didn’t. These are some of the interesting little detalls a small boy picked up and handed in late last night.

CHRISTIANS FINALLY PROVE THE VICTORS Conventions Started Out Reavely and Had Game Well In Hand When the Religlous Athletos, Alded by Errors, Turn the Tablos. A fairly good crowd went out to the Young Men's Christlan assoclation ball park yesterday afternoon to see the Chris- tlans sock it to the Conventions In one of the wild woollest games the old grounds have over seon. It was great fun, but as a ball game it was rank. Errors wero piled on errors In a most reckless fashion, and brilliant plays woere at a mini mum. Spud Farrlsh umpired the gamo and many of his friends blushed for him. He called no less than five fouls strikes, and somo of his base decisions were rather oderiferous. He appeared to be'a little rat- tled by the bolsterous coaching of Robin- son. This youngster Is a little oft in some of his fdeas, but he Is young yet, and there Is hope for him. He played a very good game. Stoney was the star player yesters day, with three runs, three base hits, one a two-bagger, three put outs and clght as- sists. The rest of the teams flelded protty much liko a lot of cows in a meadow lot. In the first inning Spud made his first star play. He called a very cvident foul a ball, thus glving McAulift his base, and before the wrangle that ensued was ended M- Aulift roosted on the home plate. In the next inning the Conventions thought they had cinched the game. By the kindly aid of the Christians In the way. of errors the bases were filled and Dolan lined out a cork- ing three-bagger. He was brought in by a base hit from McAulift's bat and four big runs was the result. Some opportune hitting gave them three more in the fifth, In the last inning a three-bagger by Hark- ness netted two moro runs and the Conven- tions ceased. In the third the Christians awoke to the fact that they would have to get a hustle on themselves, and they so surprised their opponents that they were given considerable assistance. Soven big juiey errors, while the bases were full, a home run by Craw= ford and two other hits were jumbled all together, and the Christians drew four runs. In the next they added insult to injury. Ten men went to bat and five of them came marching home. Not by themselves. The Conventions gave them some more encourage= ment. In fact, they handed out assistance in the shape of errors with a lavish hand throughout the whole game, Five more runs were added In the sixth and seventh, and then the weary throng that witnessed the procecdings wandered home.
