ety q 2 TENNIS TOURNEY OPENED Nominal Beginning Made in 8pite of the Rain of Yesterday, TWO FIRST-ROUND MATCHES PLAYED Battin Beats Naudain and Pleron Beats Dickey—Courts 4n Good Piay Will o St Today—Other Sport Shape and rted Early Tennis players have conie to know that a tournament fs a surer rain producer than any amount of dynamite exploded in the sky. 1t seems as if it was good oppor- tunity for the weather clerk to dispose of man's hopes. No sooner does the date that has been set aside for a tennis tourney come around than, for & surety, the heavens will too an open and the rain descend. Yesterday morn- ing It looked as if it would be out of the quostion to expect any play at all on the courts at Twenty-third and Harney streets, and a notice that the tournament had been postponed until today was posted on the gate. But this was only another man's proposition, which was disposed of as the day advanced. The sun came out and the wind blew, and by 5 o'clock In the after- noon one court was in excellent condition, #ave for a small patch in the center, where the court is least used. This was marked out ready for a start, and another court was also prepared, although the traces of the morning's downpour were still abundantly apparent. But with only two courts fit to use only two matches were played off, and the start ‘was, therefore, little more than a nominal one. Plerson and Dickey were the first in court and they had considerable of a tussle before the event was declded in favor of Plorson. Dickey recelved 15 and this proved sufficient to enable him to win a set, The score of 7-5, 3-6, shows better than words how even the handicap had made the two players, and especially so as the stronger man won, In the other court Battin met Naudain, giving him 15. The general {mpression seemed to be that he would win in spite of the handicap, and there was some surprise evinced when the younger man captured the first set. Battin was putting in some ex- tremely long strokes, but there were not cnough of them to win the games that he wanted, and with his opponent one point ahead of him at the opening of every game lie found it very uphill work to make any headway. In the second set, however, he pulled himself together, and hitting all the timo with greater confidence le took the re- maining two sets with more and more ease as he progressed. Tho following are the results in the two matches that were decided yesterday: Men's singles—Icirst round: J.W. Battin (scratch) beat T. N. Nau- e i SO (rcateb| Beat, O/ 8. DI . Plerson’ (scratch) beat C. S. Dickey 15, 7-5, 3-6, 6-: l ke There still remains seven matches in the first round of the singles, and the fourteen compotitors who are involved in these seven matches are expected to be on the ground in good time tonight to get things moving. It 18 {mpossible to have the tournament string ing out for week after week, and it the competitors do not appear at the time they are wanted they are liable to have their names crossed off and their opponents given a walk-over. It Is very likely that one or more matches in the doubles may be put Into court tonlght, always providing of course that there is no mora, delay from rain, and . every one who s entared in elther of these “'évents is warned that the saftest place for him to be for the last few hours before dark this evening will be‘on the courts of the Omaha Lawn Tennis club. Yesterday's attendarice can hardly be taken as a criterion of the number of people that are likely to put in an appearance later in the week, for the reason that it had be- come very generally understood that nothing would be attempted yesterday on account of the condition of the courts; but there have been a considerable number of season tickets sold and no doubt the number of others who will pay their littlo dime for a few minutes view of the game on one of the nights will be sufficient at any rate to enable the club to come through the' venture without financial loss.

The track was lightning fast, the weather clear and pleasant, and the betting livély, One solitary favorite came first under the wire in the six events, Little Miss, In the first, was left standing still. She was equally played with Advo- cate for a time, and nearly as much money was dumped on her as on Advocate, who ran second. Tancred (8 to §) and Jidonlen (3 to 2, in the fifth and sixth races, were the oniy favorites who did not get a mark. The day wound up with a startling sur- prise In the victory of Partner, on whom as high as 30 to 1 was offered.

LOUIS, June 11.—Today's card at the Fair’ Grounds was a_good one, and with the track lightning fast some good sport was witnessed by the good crowd in at- tendan The results,’ however, were a series of dumps for the talent, but one favorite, Hthel Gray, landing in front. The fourth 'and sixth events presented the somewhat remarkable feature of a split handicap. There were twenty-three ac ceptances to the fourth, and the field was divided to make the sixth race, an occur- rence quite infrequent. Results: First race, fifteen-sixteenths of a mile: Jim Murphy (30 to 1) won, Fort Worth (7 to 1) second, J. B. Freed (10 to 1) third. Time: .

Eventful Day at Morris ¥ark. NEW YORK, June 11.—It was a stifling hot day at Morris park, and the track was as fast as lightning. In the All Breeze stakes the spectators were treated to o stirring finish between Stonenell and Roche, In which the former won by the shortest of heads in a hard drive. It is robable Roche might have won If Midge- ey had not bungled. An elghth of a mile from the finish Roche had Stonenell driv- ing, and could have taken the lead, but the boy waited until it was too late,and al- though he was gaining rapldly on the Dwyer sprinter the distance was too short and Midgely was clearly outridden, al- though he had the best horse. W B, a rank outsider, captured the second race from the favorites, Romer and Willfonse. In the third race St. Maxim was an odds-on favorite, and won in a romp. When the stretch was reached Griffin tried to make a short cut on the inside with Atrophine. As he did this the colt's leg broke off short at the pastern joint. The colt was a full brother to St. Leonards, and was shot soon after he was taken to the stable. In the last race Arab won easily from Tom Skidmore in 139, a record for the track.

GONE ABOUT FAR ENOUGH Polico Commissioners Disposad to Stop Raids by Officers on Houscholders, OFFENSIVE ODOR ABOUT SEAVEY'S ORDER Hazo and Shoop on Trinl for Entering Private Dwellings Without Proper Au- thority —Exe Which They Have to Offe The Roard of Fire and Police Commission- ers last night heard charges against Chiet Detective Haze and Sergeant Shoop, who are of unlawfully entering Mrs. McKray's house at 1817 Leavenworth street on two different occasions. Attorfey Stmeral conducted the case In behalf of the complainants, while Mr. Haze acted as his own lawyer. Mrs, McKray was the first witness. She sald that she leases the flat at 1817 Leavenworth street and sub- lets rooms. She sald that she had been married to George McKray for twelve years. On the night of May 31, Haze and Shoop called at her residence, rang the hall door bell and without waiting for an answer, came into her house and began searching the rooms. They came to the room occupied by Mr. Shelby and a_woman who Mrs. MrKray had been informed was his wife. They opened the door and walked in, Shoop lighting the gas. Haze came out and asked her if she was keeping any girls there and said that he would take down her name and report her 5o that Chief Seavey could decide whether or not she could live there any longer or would have to get out and move down into the “burnt district.” The men went away, but they came back agaln about 11 o'clock on the night of June 6, and searched the house in spite of her protests. When she met Haze and Shoop at the door she told them that they could not come into her house unless they had legal authority, but they pushed her to one side and told her that they were in now and wanted to know what she was going to do about it. They also used insulting language in her presence, On the cross-cxamination Haze tried to go Into the past differences which had arisen be- tween McKray and his wife, but the board concluded that this had no bearing on the case. Haze then drew out Chief Seavey's som what notorious order appointing him and Shoop to the special duty of driving the im- moral women into the district or clse drive them out of the city. After the order was read Commissioner Strickler said that ho thought it was the duty of the officers to go into Mrs. Kray's residence and search for supposedly improper characters. Hartman, Smith and Coburn thought thart these men had gone a little too far in this instance. Mrs. McKray then dented that the cou- pants of any of her rooms Invited the cf- fcers to enter. She also said that when they were about ready to leave Haze suld that they would come to her house and come in_whenever they felt so disposed. F. D. Thomas, who has roomed at Mc- Kray's for five years, sald that he was in his room the first timé that the officer came and that he was entertaining a lady ac- quaintance, but that this did not stop Shoop from pushing open his door and asking him if he was married. He heard Shoop accuse Mrs. McKray of being a prostitute, and say- ing that she ought to bo down In the dis- trict. He and Shoop hod some words when Thomas was disturbed on the occaslon of thelr second visit. CHIEF SEAVEY EXPLAINS. Chief Seavey said that he lssued the order to Haze and Shoop as tho ministerial officer of Omaha, and that he expected them to compel every known prostitute to move out of the residence or business portion of the city and get out of town or else go Into the burnt district. He did not know what con- struction the officers had placed on his or- ders, but he expected them to obey thelr in- Junctions to the letter. Hazo sald that he wanted to understand Just what the chief meant by his order, and Attorney ' Simeral suggested that it was rather late for him and Shoop to begin seek- ing information after all that they had been dofng. Haze sald that he thought that they had done some good, as he and Shoop had notified sixteen couples to quit living in adultery and that six of these couples had married since receiving his orders to move. Seavey claimed that It was not necessary for these officers to have warrants to enter houses whero they believed that lewd women were domiciled. This lead to quite a lengthy discussion as to whether Seavey was responsible for issuing an order that is illegal or whether Haze and Shoop had placed thelr own construction upon it and used their discretionary powers to com- mit illegal acts. Seavey sald that the ofi- cers had the right to enter any bullding where they had good reasons,to belleve there was a known prostitute, but he said that he did not fssue the order with the expecta- tion that theso men would forcibly enter privato residences. Then Haze wanted to know how he was accuesed to discover such people unless he could enter a building at all times without hindrance. STORY OF THE OFFICERS. Sergeant Shogp said that he understood the order to mean that he and Haze were to go through Omaha and drive the prostitutes into the “burnt district.” He said that a Mrs. Sommers, who had been accused of running a house of assignation at 622 South Sixteenth street, told him and Haze when they visited her place that they ought to glve Mrs. McKray a call, as she had a couple rooming with her who were not married. He said that they did so and found a man and woman living there and the man acknowledged ~that he was not married. He sald that he also found a woman in Mr. Thomas' room, but saw nothing wrong. He also a girl named Eva Trihune in one of the rooms, whom he and Haze had ordered to leave the Karbach block. He acknowledged that Mrs, McKray told them when they went to her house for the second time that they could not come & unless they had the proper authority, but that they ‘went in anyway., He said that people had told him that Mrs, McKray was running a house of bad reputation, but his memory was so defective just then that he could not recall the name of any of his in- formants. George Lodge, an employe of the Union Pacific, said that he had heard that Mrs. McKray's flats were in bad repute, but he refused to give the name of any person who told him this. J. B. Loomls, driver for hose cart No. 5, was the next witness, and with brazen ef- frontery he related acts of adultery which he committed with a woman who was room- ing at Mra. McKray's last summer, when she kept rooms on Sixteenth street. He sald that he had occupied a room with this person on several nights, but was not aware that the landlady knew anything about his acts. Andy Haze, a brother of one of the ac- cused officers, and W. W. Cox, an ex-police- man, were called by Haze as witne but as they knew nothing having any direct bearing on the case the hoard excused them. Chief Haze sald that he concurred in all that Shoop lmd testified to, In fact he agreed with his brother officer word for word. He also denled Insulting Mrs, McKray. He re- marked that iIn serving Seavey's order he was between the devil and the deep sea. It he carried out Its provislons he had to act in an fllegal manner, and it he didn’t the chief would have him before the hoard for rofusing to obey his superior officer. He suld ho understood the law well enough to know that he bad no right o enter any house In the manner that he did, and that he would have no recourse if he was as- saulted by the occupants. He said that the present Instance was ome in which he did ner, but what not act in a strictly legal m he dld was fu good faith. He sald that in the performance of his duty he was fre- quently compelled to enter houses In such amanner. He sald that they had all sorts of Information about flats and tenants, and that they had to be governed largely by circumstances. Attorney Simeral denounced the chiet's or: der and the manner in which it was belng enforced, and read declsions and statutes showing that it was ubsolutely without any legal foundation, Commissioners Coburn and Hartwan remarked that they were in favor of resuinding this order and instructing Haze and Shoop to cease working under it Court Oficer Walker pleaded guilty to smoking while on duty. Chiet Seavey filed » report of his investi | gation fnto the sate of Hiquors tn houses of | prostitution and the board referred the mat ter to the county attorney, as none of them seemed to want to prosecute the women for selling liguor without a eity lcense. | Firemen Crowley and Vanderford were glven ten dayst leave of absence The board informed Judge Berka that Chief Seavey or either of his captains could accept bonds in cases where a bailable offense had been committed Complaint wers made against threo sa loon keepers, but as usual there was not enough evidonce upon which to base an action, and Commissioner Strickler said that the whole matter was getting to be a farce, and that If they could not keep the saloon closed on Sunday he was in favor of letting them run wide open. The board went into exccutive session, but took no actfon on the questions under n- sideration, and adjourned until this evening. e TO IMPEACH THE SUL ERVISORS, Connty Officers at Stoux Clty for Alleged Crooked |I0UX Y, June 1lL-—(Special ele- gram to The ee)—-Some time ago the cit- izens and taxpayers committee accused the members of the Board of County Super- visors of misappropriating and converting to their own use $238,000 of county funds and substantiated the legations to such an extent that the court enjoined the board from bonding the illegal debt and placing Must Answer it beyond repudiation.

LEAVENWORTH, June 11.—A member of the Natlonal Soldiers home named Willlam Williams_today brought habeas corpus pro- ceedings in the United States court against Governor Smith for illegally confining him at the home, refusing to give him his dis- charge, retaining his pension money and compelling him to take the Keeley treatment and pay for the same under duress of im- prisonment. Governor Smith immediately gave Willlams his freedom and pension money upon being served with notice of the legal proceedings. The retention of pension money is looked upon as a serious matter, and this case will probably set a precedent against compulsory admintstration of the Keeley treatment in national military homes and the deprivation of veterans of pension money for that purpose.

Told by Mrs. Cook df Brooklyn AND CAREFULLY RECORDED A Pago From Real Life Which Can Do Rend With Interest and Is Certaln To Bo of Value, On a recent Sunday afternoon the writer gave interested attention to the narration Which follows. It is here reproduced almost exactly In the words of the lady from whose 1ps It fell—Mrs. S. C. Cook of 250 Tompkins avenue, Brooklyn, v Y Mr. and Mrs. Cook and myself sat at the front windows of their home overlooking the park, as Mrs. Cook gave this lcaflet out of her lifo, one of her littlo childron nestiing against her knee, My husband and I have been married,” sald the lady, “almost nino years. Bofore my marriage I was often tired, weak, ex- hausted, and my strength seemed to be pass- Ing from me. I was then troubled m groat deal with indigestion and dyspopsia, and sometimes since. I would bo well two or three months and sick two or three months, oft and on. That was the history of several years—sleoping badly and sufforing. 1 could not eat any solid food. I lived on bolled milk, taken hot, right off the stove. That was my diet, and 1 got very tired of it; but I was afraid to touch anything else. “Now to get back to the year 1893, last year, was a long and sad one for me. As the warm weather came on I hoped to get better, but did not. The opening buds on the trees out there in the park found me as weak, low and miserably as I had been in the win- ter. I was losing flesh and strength, slowly but surely, all the time. My nerves were feeble and shaken s0 tha v sleej habitually bad, 3 78 SRR “At last, by the advice of my friends, T went to Peckskill, whore I remained for some time, but my friends saw I was growing thinner, and expressed the opinion to one another that I was in a deoline. “The doctor suggested that T take cod liver oll, but I told him' I couldn’t bear tho looks or the taste of it, either in its natural state or as an emulsion. He looked grave at this, but said no more about it So I lay there and lingered and sank; that is all there is to say of the results of my trip to the country.* “Every time I went up to visit my wife, said Mr. Cook, “I could see she was much thinner and more feebla than before, al- though she didn't ke to admit it.” “Well,” continved the lady, “I felt that I it were physically possible I must get home, and s0, on the 3d of November, they wrapped me up and brought me home, what was left of me; and what there was of me welghed Just 98 pounds, 37 pounds less than I welghed in my girlhood. Here I could do nothing, eat nothing; only walt for what might happen. I had tried doctors and drugs—often useful to others—but of no use to me. “On the next day after my return my hus- band brought me a bottle of pro-digested food, and said a friend of his recommended it, and hoped I would try it. I tasted It, and it tasted good, nothing like cod-liver ofl. I began taking it according to the directions without feeling the least confidence in it or indulging any hope from it. But it did have a good effect, and that quickly. It gave me an appetite. “I could eat the old kinds of food and they didn’t distress me. Then I began to get some strength. At the end of a week, to my surprise and delight, T found I had gafned two pounds. At the end of the second week, two more. And so on, gaining two pounds overy week. “It is elght weeks now, and I weigh 114 pounds, just 16 pounds more than when I came home. I can eat anything, have no pain, no cough, no headache, can run up stairs lke a girl, and I know you will be- lieve me when I say it is all due to Paskola." “And you think the pre-digested food, Pas~ kola, did all this for you, Mrs. Cook?"" “Certainly; if it didn’t, what did? I never felt so0 well and like living In ten years as I do now."” “It Isn't my wife's increase In welght alone,” remarked Mr. Cook; “but look at her! her strength! her enjoyment of herself! her bright spirits! She had none of those things till Paskola gave them to her. If ft can do as much for other peoplo, through her statement being published, why it ought to be published.” “What my husband says, I say,” added Mrs. Cook; “anything less would be ingrati- tude on my part and culpable indifference to the suffering of others.” Has this casa any lesson for you? Are you thin? Are you famishing for food which the palate refuses and the stomach cannot di- gest? Are you pale for the want of red blood? Ate you chilly because you have not flesh to feed the vital fire? Are you weak because your food is mot assimilated? Are you slowly sinking like a scuttled ship? Mil- lions are.
