During the last week he delivered four commence- ment addresses before high school graduat- Ing clasees and tomorrow he will resume the work, speaking in the evening at Lex ington. Tuesday night he will address the High school senfors at Brady Island and Wednesday he wiii perform a similar duty at Craig. After visiting a day at Blair, his home, he will return to Lincoln and | Friday evening he will deliver an address before the students and graduates of the Nebraska Wesleyan university at Univer- sity Place. From observations made on the trip last week Superintendent Fowler fs stronger in the oplnion that the schools of small towns | should be reduced from eleven to ten grades. He thinks that .more students would be graduated from a tenth grade if ' the eleventh is eliminated than now pass' the tenth grade. The reagon for this, he says, {s that pup'ls get discouraged when they look sc far ahead to graduation. With the ond nearer he thinks the students would remain in school clear to the end of | the final grade. Polities In Frontler. Representative J. A. Andrews of Fron- tier county was in the city this afternoon Speaking of thc political outlook in his county Mr. Andrews sald: “All signs point to a compiete vietory for the republicans in Frontier. The county has been pretty evenly divided for several years past, but we expect this year to et complete control of the county government. Three officers are now held by the fusion- 1sts. They are the treasurer, county judge | and surveyor. The fusion incumbents are all second-term men, except the county Judge, who 1s serving his third term. In- dications are that the fusionists will let these offices go by default this year, but it Is expected that they will concetrate thelr efforts in an attempt to elect a sherift from their party. At least they will make thelr hardest fight for this office Republican Gaina MILWAUKEE IS ONE AHEAD Reats the Athletics from Philadelphia, Six to Fi in Hard- Playe me.

It seemed to be a race tc see which member of the team could play thu woret and four of them succeeded in getting into the error column. From all appearances it wasn't the fault of the others that they didn’t. When the thassacre was finally over and the blg crowd, sorely dlsappointed, started home- ward 1t was announced that the score was #°to 1 and the 15cals got the short end of it. “Pop"” Eyler, the slab artist for the vi {tdrs, certainly exercises some sort of a #pell over the Omaha clan.

But how great the fall of the mighty! Before the game was over the joy of these same fanatics was turned futo a frenzy and President Rourke was called upon to chase “Dusty’” out of the lot. But “Dusty” pitched the game out. There was little use to take him out after the ffth inning, for the game had been practically cinched by the visitors then. The visitors. started out in the first In- ning and Mohler, the first man up, got around as far as third before the ioning was ended. In that act, besides giving Mohler freq transportation, Coons hit one other batsman, but sharp work on the part of the fielders saved any scoring on the M ! PparL of the Denverites.

In the second inning the first score was | mada by Preston, who soaked out a home run, the ball lighting outside the reserva- tion. The first three iunings, however, were marked by fast and interesting play- {ng, but after that it was all off so far as the locals were concerned. Coons and Buckley played miserable ball, Calhoun bluridered and when, at the end of the fifth inning, the visitors had amassed a collec- tion of a half dozen tallles the game vir- tually lost its faterest. Omaha’s 'one run came In the fourth in- ning and was the product of a safety by Buckley, followed by two soaking swats by Leteher and Calhoun. It was in this innipg alone that the locals were able to land on Eyler efectively and their poor base running offset the advantage gained by the temporary batting streak. How the Score Stands. The scors: SPRINGFIELD, 1il, May 26—In the beauty of a perfect May day, and with all the pomp and circumstance ot a military funeral, and the rites of the church, the remaing of former Governor Tanne: were consigned to the grave today in Oak Ridgo | cemetery. The casket was covered with a flag and with beautiful floral offerings When the casket had been lowered into the grave the musketry of the Fifth infantry, Illinols National guard, rolled three times over the open grave, and the trumpeters sounded ‘‘taps.’ The funeral was the largest in point of attendance ever known in Springfield, with | the exception of the burial of Fresident | Lincoln in April, 1865, Every railroad | brought excursions and there were 3,000 | strangers in the city, Scores of prominent politiclans were present from all over the state. On every public bullding of the city flags were at half-mast, and at suntise a major general's salute of thirteen guns was fired from a cannon near the state house. This was followed at intervals of half an hour throughout the day by one discharge, and at sunset a salute of thir- teen guns was again fired. The body was taken from the res'dence of Turney English, father of Mrs. Tanner, where it had remalned since removed from the Leland hotel, at 5:30 this morning, under an escort of six sergeants of the Fifth infantry, engineers and signal corps under command of Lieutenant John Raf- ferty, company M, Fifth infantry, Caanton, to the state house, where it lay in state until the time to be taken to the church. The rotunda of the state house was a mass of floral designs, flags and black and white drapings. The public was admitted at 8:30 a. m. and from then until 1:30 p m., when the doors were closed to the public, there was a steady stream of people passing through the state house, the num- ber being estimated at 30,000, From Church to Cemetery. The procession which was to escort the body to the church and cemetery formed at the Leland hotel and at 1 o'clock marched down Capltol avenue to the state house, where the hearse and carriages contalning the funeral party, active and honorary pall- earers and diatinguished guests fell into line and the march was taken up past the executive mansfon, the portico of which was draped in flags and black and white, to St. Paul's pro-cathedral. Arriving at the pro-cathedral, which was filled with those who had been given tickets of admission, the troops pre- sented arms and the colors were drooped, while the Fifth regiment band played a dirge, which, added to the booming of can- non and the tolling of bells, was imprea- sive.

Then taking the petition which he bim- self had dictated he produced his specta- cles, wiped them and, carefully adjusting them upon his nose, read over the whole document as I he had never seen it before, filed it in due form and then, turning to the impatient danse id, with the utmost gravity: % “Madam, I bave read your petition and regret exceedingly that I cannot grant it." cal.
