Louls, 8’ atf, Bill TraMey jumped right on to Bill Rourke the moment they got inside the lot yesterday, and the fight that ensued was a rattler. Like giants they wrestled to and fro for a few moments, then Traffley got Rourke down anfl wallowed him around on the moistened eafth awhile like a bull dog would wallow a raf terrier. Papa finally regained his feet, but he was a sorry spectacle. His handsome faco was splotched with mud, one ear gone and both eyes in heavy mourning, while his natty gray uniform was nothing short of an assemblage of ra But he was dead game and went right at Trat again just as it he had been brought up on that sort of diet. And my! how they did struggle and writhe and twist. A cat fight couldn’t be mentioned in the same day. Now Rourke was on top, now Traf; then they'd roll over and over, scratch- ing, punching,, biting and gouging like rav- enous beasts. So terrific was the battle that at times you couldn't tell Rourke from Traf- fley. Their entwined and convoluted bodies looked as if incorporated into one, and it wiis anybody's fight until suddenly, in an fllsstarred moment, Traffloy rammed our Bill's head down into the soft earth about a foot, and began to kick him in deeper, when, 1ike' a flash, he arose, only, however, to re- cefve a rap on the jaw that keeled him over as dead as it he had been hit in the head with a mallet. OUR BILL'S ABNEGATION. Just before the scrap opened up, Burrell, the youth who did the catapulting for Traf- fley, offered to give the game to Rourke, but Papa drew himself up in all his altitudinous pride and replied: {No, my little man. I appreciate the kindly motive which has prompted you to offer me this small tribute to the esteem in which you hold me, but I cannot accept it. I'q rather see myself lying dead before me than accept, aye even as much as a chew of fine cut, from any man, woman or child bearing the vaguest propinquity to Bill Traf- fley. No, Harry, me boy, go In an’ do your best, and we'll knock the conceit out of you 1n hunks bigger'n Mike Lawerence's gall.” Then with the stride of a proud and haughty aristocrat our Bill told his men o 8o In and do thelr worst. And that is just what they did do—their worst. For desplite the fact that young Burrell did some of the wildest pitching Ahat ever came out of a swamp, they couldn’t do a thing to him, and seeing that they couldn’t get thelr base any other way, he gave It to them no less than twelve times, and, would you believe it, but one man out of that whole dozen scored.

NEW YORK, June 9.-A finer day and a finer track could not have been desired for today's racing at Morris Park, and the excellent card brought a large attendance, probably greater than ever before this year, and the racing was excellent. The chief interest was in the Toboggan Sliae handicap, in which the best sprinters in America ' were engaged. The other feas ture was the Larchmont stakes, in which Gotham, the top welght, did not start, and Kennan was a 1 to 2 shot.

For the first timte during all the years that cricket has Been played in Omaha the outcome of a game has resulted in a “tie.” It was playgd yesterday afternoon. Messrs, E. Stringer and A. D. Robb were the captains of the, two elevens, and the former having wonAthe “toss” decided to bat first, v 4 ypessrs. A, Gavinand H. Lawrle opened the Innings’ for théir side and faced the bowling of Messrs. G. H. Vaughan and A. D. Robb. ~ Mr. Gavin, who . seemed to be in his best form, soon'got to work and made it lively for' the fielders. He hit freely and with good judgment, and before he had the misfortune of stepping out of his ground to make one of his sensational hits “(thereby giving Taylor the chance to “stump” him), he had put up the very respectable score of 18 runs. McPherson, who came next, was dis- posed of by Vaughan before he could do anything, nor was it until the advent of New that things bezan to look up. Thie batsman played a faultless innings for during which he achieved a few driv which would have done no discredit to a Hornby or a Grace in their palmiest days. The innings closed for 65 runs, which, without being a very large score, is a fairly ~ respectable one, _considering Vaughan, “the demon bowler of the west,” had sométhing to say In it. After a slight intermission Robb's eleven undertook the defense. Messrs, Taylor and’ Vaughan opened. the ball for . their side, and the way that the former started in conveyed the impression that he was going to do the proper thing for his side “oft “his own bat.’” This, however, was not to be, as, although he' covered himseir with glory and made a quarter of a century for his ' side, the fates were working against the cause under which he was en- listed, and his best efforts could not attain more than a ‘‘tie.”” Among others who contributed most to- ward the 6 made by the whole side, were Rev. J. P D. Liwyd and Messrs. Hart, Johnson, W. Gavin, Robb and Cookson. The last wicket fell for 65 runs, and the most remarkable matéh in the annals ot ericket fn Omaha was brought to a. close.

Even the mixed doubless which was put on the card very much Ly the way of an experl- ment, has proved quite an attraction, and an even dozen gentlemen have found' lady partners. The handicapping has of necessity been on a very rough and ready principle, for the reason that so many of the pliyers are unknown to those who have the affalr in charge, In the singles there are but three classes, those wha owe 16 (Austin and Cullingham), those who start at scratch, and thome who recelve 15 For th beneflt of those who are not familiar wit the system of handicavping it may b plained that whe 5 I8 owed the first made in each game won by the man r Ing su odds brings his so p In other words, if & man r 15 met a man o 5 the score at the commence- ment_of game would be, not love-all, but 15-owe-18, OF owe-15-15, mccording as the case might be.

RACKET WIELDERS, Association Members' Tourney Announced for Next Week. The tennis committee of the Young Men's Christian association has decided to hold the first of a serles of tournaments during the week beginining June 15, All entries must be handed in to E. Thomas, Omaha National Bank building, on or be- fore Friday, June 15, accompanied by an entrance’ fee of 10 cents for each competi- tor. This deposit Is required in order that the expenses of the committee for podtage and other incidentals may be defrayed in- dependently of the treasury of the Young Men's Christian association, and has been made small so as to exclude no one from entering the competition. The events will comprise _gentlemen's singles and doubles and mixed doubles. The tournament will be confined to mem- bers of the Young Men's Christian associa- tlon, though it is the intention of the com- mittee to hold a tournament open to all comers later in the season. In the pre- liminary round three sets will constitute a_match, and matches may be played at any timé of the day during the days of June 18 to 22 inclusive, the competitors re- Dorting the results of their matches to the chairman of the committee, E. E. Thowmas. The second and succeeding rounds will con- sist of matches of five games to the match. The second round will be played Saturday afternoon, June 23, at 3 o'clock. The time for playing “the. succeeding " and final rounds will be designated later. The committee has arranged to have benches built for the accommodation of spectators, and, while expecting the pre- liminaries to prove of less interest, desires that the second and other rounds should be well attended for the sake of encourag- ing tennis in the Young Men's Christian as- sociation. For the same reason it is de- sirable that all members of the association who play tennis should enter for the tournament and at once. Last of Old Bl Today.
