LINCOLN, Sept. 8.—(Speclal T The Bee)—The last game of the season played on the home grounds with the St. Joe team was witnessed by one of the Jargest crowds of the season. It was any. body's game until the beginning of (he ninih inning, when the locals by terrific slugging mecured seven runs, after a chance had been given to retire the side. Sullivan smeared himself all over with glory, making flve putouts unassisted, two of these being on a double play, which he executed very neatly. He is credited with {wenty pui outs out of the twenty-seven, resulting from the inability of the visitors to knock the ball outside of the diamond. He also se- cured four hits, a single, two doubles and a three-bagger. His hitting was very timely, bringing in two men at one time and three at another, and afterwa coring himself. One rank error marred his otherwise per- feot record. Pedroes secured the same bat- ting honors as Sullivan and brought 'n three men by a timely three-bag Barnes put up a great game in_the box weakened a little In the fifth inning, when four hits were made, netting three runs.

As an effective means of abating the smoke nuisance the use of “smokeless coal” offers one solution of the problem. There are many so-called smoke consumers, but with the exception of Captain Reynold’s device, they do not seem to comply with the requirements of the ordinance. Many users of steam_have arrived at the conclusion that smokelesd coal is the best smoke con- sumer, and those who have used it pro- nounce Sheridan coal an absolutely smoke- less coal, and om account of its low price it has the preference. As Dr. Duryes said of it at the letting of the school contract for coal: "It is as nearly a perfect fuel as anything yet discovered,” as it is equally good for all purposes. The office of the Sheridan Coal Co. is at 16th and Farnam. WITH THE HARNESS HORSES Btato Broeders” Moching a Fuccesyin All but a Finnnolal Way. T of PAXTON'S COKQUEROR HAS GONE LAME Strained Kis Near i Sent Mo-Some Marks Nenson —Gossip Ithestables. A Leg and Had (o Taken This ot The meeting of the Nebraska Pacing and Trotting Horse Breeders' assoclation at th fair grounds during the past week was a financial failure, which will be felt for some time and will probably cut some figure in the contest for the p:rmanent location of the state fair. The horsemen are Inclined to feel sore cver the indifferent attitude of ths people of Omaha and the surrounding towns toward their meeting, and are not only keenly disappointed but will have to make good, out of their own pockets, a con- siderable deficiency. They have grounds for complaint, It Is true, but there are things to be considered which they may not have thought of. The Breeders' association is composed of the most prominent owners and breeders of harness horses in the state. They hold annual meetings, at which the speed of the different grades and breeds is tested for rimunerative purses and records Nebraska has some famous sires,more famous harness racers, and consequently lots of colts that may soon be challenging the kings and queens of the turf, Her horsemen Known on all the eastern racing circuits and the Chandler 1, Paxton, Brigg and other strings have conte in_th fastest classes. Yet with all this in_their favor, there are no good mile tracks of rep- utation in the state, while Iowa, the rival of Nebraska for fast harness horses, has half dozen tracks of record reputation. The Omaha meeting was as good as the average state breeders’ meeting, but at no time was there a large enolgh attendance to pay the purses for that day, Among the things that kept the crowds away wa that” the raclng was conducted on a half mile track, and not a remarkably fast one at that. fesides this, there were counter attractions in the shape of base ball, and 80 many evening amusements that people of moderate means could not take them all in. This has also been a season of turf sensations, records of all kinds have been broken, and nelther fast time nor good records can be made on half mile courses, The breeders’ meeting not a success except finances, and it seems as it their meeting was held under the most unfavor- able circumstances, which was the fault of no particular person. Let the breeders' on establish a fast mile track in this city and it Is a safe prediction that financial stringencies In its affairs will be ception. Omaha should not be made ulder all the blame for their il success this time. some The stallion Conquero owned by William A city, has been sent home breeding and training farm, and he will be driven in no more races this season The admirers of Conaueror will learn with t that he is sufering from a badly L. ned left hind leg, which has laid him off the track,'and he may not enter the speed 1ists again, Mr axton does not think the Injury: a permanent one, and if it is it will only Injure the horse as a racer Ab Fullager has charge of Pa 's string and has made fifteen starts in ri s at the gs at Joliet, Gra Rapld Chicago, Independen and Ind apolis. He has won portions of fourteen of the purses, but did not get anything in the odd race, The string is showing up well and earning more than feed money, something that lots of them are not doing In this season of ri rd smashing. Phenom, his_2-vear-old pa made a race record of 2:21%% in_the third heat in the mud at India polis last week. Coswing, his yearling trotter, won a race and record at rand Rapids by traveling the mile in 2:49% early in the season, and Two Strikes has won two second and one fourth moneys in the 2:13 class pacing events At Indfanapolis Two Strikes drove Fidol under thie wire in a recént race in 2:10% and lost the’ heat by a neck's length. This week Mr. Paxton made a valuable ad- dition to his string, purchasing Mina Me- dium, 2:14, by Riley Medium, of J. 8. Ricker of Emporia, Kan., for $,00. This animal is 1 years old_and 'is a tried and true cam- algner. She recenily won the sccond, fourth and fifth heats in the 2:15 class trot at Indlanapolis, beating Senator A and Alamito. After the races there on Thurs- day Mr. Paxton traded Woodallah to Jo- seph Neagele for Lady Arlington, a good 3-year-old in the Z:0 class. He expects Two Strikes to bring a new record home with him at the close of this season. Clinton Briggs has given his string of horses over to the care of Chandler, the well known driver and trainer, who has Barondale, one of Baron Wilkes' best get, in his string. Mr. Briges has not had good luck with his horses this season, and after winning the Minneapolls two-mile derby and a few minor events early in the season his horses have not made the showing expected of them. Alamito, a fast anlmal, too, has been beaten twice recently in races In which he should have won. But such things are among the misfortunes of turf- men, and better things may happen before the closing of the racing season. , by Egotist, ., of this to the KKeystone Turfmen_were treated to a grand sensa- tion on Thursday afternoon of the past week, when Robert J and Joe Patchen made their world-beating performance. Bver since Mascot, Flying Jib and Nancy Hanks made a mark of 2:04 each last year horsemen have been aiming to beat it, and now two of them have accomplished the feat in a race, which will go down in turf history as one of the grandest of harness races. The record has been reduced one and a half seconds, and the two-minute mark is now in sight. Even since the open- ing of the season there has been great rivairy between Geers, driver of Robert J, and Curry, driver of Joe Patchen, and two match races have occurred between the little world-beating gelding and the famous stallion. The first one took place a few weeks ago, and-Joe Patchen performed in such a manner that he was beaten to a standstill. He was beaten in the last race, but he made such a gallant effort that horsemen express genuine regret that Joe could not have won one of the heats in order to get a stallion record. He traveled the second mile in 2:02%, pushing Robert J under the wire in 2:i2! t this time can- not be made into & “record,” although it is the fastest ever made by any stalllon in the world.
