Bpeed and cunning and lithe strength ac- cumulated through ages of aboriginal pro- fenitors did not avail the Haskell Indlans ast night when the* met the basket ball team of the Omaha Young Men's Christian assoclation, and the red men suffered their first amateur reverse this season, being de- feated by the decisive acore of 21 to 11. ‘The reputation of the Indiane had yre- ceded them and the association gymnasium was taxed to its capacity, fully specta- tors belng crowded into the limited space. The crowd was enthusiastic to an_extreme, and the visiting players attracted & large following ‘and were heartlly cheered throughout the game, To those famillar with tranemissourt foot il affairs there were many well know: In. dlans on the basket ball team, Four of the five who played last night were on Has- kell's first eleven last fall, they being Archiquette and Guyon, the 'famous swift ends; Fallls, the quartérback, and Ollver, the guard. The prowess of the copper-col- ored athletes 18 nonetheless at the Indoor game and the victory won over them is the reatest credit to the local team. Fresh tom thelr success of last Saturday nlght over the University of Nebraska team by the large core of 3 to 18 and their stiil more recent conquest of the Lincoln asso- clation team Monday night by 28 to 21, the silent, dusky players presented a very' for- midable appearance. Unaccugtomed to the small floor on which they were forced to play the Indiane were unable to get their eyes on the baskets, and fieyer gnce during the game did they ot thelr distances properly sighted up. Thelr fpam play was o fast and so certain that tielr ‘chances for field goals were more frequent and also much less hampered than those secured by the white men, but they couldn’t drop the ball in the basket often enough to plle up the necessary total, while the local boys scored on a_far larger percentage of their chances, both at fleld and foul line goals. The game was flercely, though not foughly, played. The white men went in thinking they were beat. and worked des- perately: to stall it off.. Meanwhile the red men expected victory, and were surprised Into, frantic efforts fo stem the tide when once It had set against them. In the first half the Indlans were outplayed, but in the second the score was practically a tle, and on its merits the game for that half was 80. Jardine and Archiguette, the two star men of each team, were upposed to each other, and their flashllke waneuvers were keen aport. Jardine was.the only man on the white team who was the equal of the Indians in speed. As a prellminary two boys' teams from the elementary classes played a game of twelve-minute halves. The participants were the ten boys who had sold the most tickets ror the blg game. Team A won, 3 10 0, in fin exciting contest. termission between the hilves of the big match the Finney brothers, Hurley and Jennings gave a high grade exhibition of tumbling, and won great favor with the spectators.

President, H. W. Winters, Madison president, G. W. Thorpe, Custer fetary, J. P, Treasurer, A. C. Falter, Harte, Election ot the above officers and the adoption of a resolution imposing upon all members of more than a year's standing, a yearly assessment of 25 cents each was practically the only business transacted yesterday afternoon at the opening session of the three days' convention of the State Association of Commissioners and Super- visors in the Douglas county court house. At night the delegates were entertalned by the local board at the Orpheum theater and today they will open their question box and settle down to a discussion of measures proposed by the legislative committes, which s headed by G. W. Welton of Lan- caster county. In electing officers the only contest was for the presidency. Mr. Winters has been vice president during the last year and has had executive duty since the death of Pres- ident Francis Phillips of Hastings, two months after the meeting a year ago. Aftar Mr. Winters was nominated for president a second nominee appeared in the person of Mr. Thorpe of Custer. The ballot resulted 42 for the Madison man and 36 for Thorpe, and Winters was declared elected. Imme- dlately Thorpe was made vice president by acclamation and the election of Falter and Harte, the latter a re-election, was ac- complished in the same manner. Each made a brief speech thanking the rssocia tion for the honor conferred. Expense Money is Needed. The new by Mr. Welton of Lancaster, who called attention to the growing tendency of the Cass county. Douglas county expense account and stated that the in- | itiation fee of 50 cents exacted of new members would not prove adequate, adding that he had paid out of his own pocket bills for the legislative committee that would ! alone swamp the assoclation's meager treasury had he drawn on it. The new ar- rangement leaves the cost to a new mem- ber 50 cents for his irst year and 25 ceats for each subsequent year. The report of Treasurer Harte showed $45 disbursements, with $10.20 balance on hand and some few bills for stenographic work yet outstanding. For today there is no “‘set” program and matters will be taken up at random, the sessions being devoted largely to discus- slons of the measures to be urged upon the legislature, which measures were fully set forth in Monday's Bee. Most important, perhaps, will be the matter of securing legislation that will force, by mandamus and fine, assessors everywhere. and even the State Board of Equalization, to fix the essment of property at its fair cash value instead of an optional fraction thereof. One of the interesting delegates Is Com- missioner Hensley of Thurston county, a full-blooded Indian, who is interested par- ticularly in laws governing ownership ¢f land and its improvement. The' delegation from Holt county, how- ever, centers its interest In the promotion of legislation which. shall make certain the power of a county board to foreclose on land for taxes and sell it to the highest bidder. One of the delegates stated that uncertainty as to this right™ls giving Holt county some pineasiness. He said: “We have a county forty-nine mile: square and contalning a portion of the sand hill region, wherein iand fs worth sometimes as little as $5 per acre, pend- ing irrigaticn. The taxes run $10 per quarter and had been allowed to run. un- paid as long as twelve years in some in- stances. We made tax collection a cam- paign fssue and during the last year have collected $162,000. Uncertain of Supreme Court. “Some of these we got by the foreclosur and sale method. Several people started cases o test the propriety of such proceed- ings long ago and the supreme court held them valid. Recently, in later cases, the supreme court has seemed to reverse itself, and now we are to get another hearing and have the proposition argued from our stand- point more thoroughly than it was before. The county attorney thinks we will win this time, but the uncertainty has made us anx- fous that the legislature shall enact a law that will remove all doubt and make the valldity of our action certain. Some of the delegates at this convention are labelled commissioners and others su- pervisors. A county which has Clstrict or- ganization bas commissioners. All these have three except Douglas, which has five. In counties where there is township organ- ization the term supervisor is used, and they are seven in number. Among the Delegates.

From a point of goodfellowship and en- thusiasm the banquet takes precedence over any of the nine previous ones. The guests of the evening were A. W. Jefferis and E. P. Smith The toastmaster of the evening was Pres- {dent Arthur C. Smith and in his opening remarks, following the serving of the menu, he urged the club members to make the coming year one of great deeds and much good accomplished. Following the toastmaster the report of the secretary, J. E. Utt, was read. He pointed with pride to the good showing made by the club during the last year and detalled the various projects that had been promoted under Its patronage.

He'asked that the club meinbers give their support to the dining room, which after February 2 would be exclusively for the use of the members and their friends, . Some Hoasts for Omaha 8. A. McWhorter spoke on the subject of “‘Omaha as a Grain Market.” Omaha, he said, was the natural market for the great- est of grain sections and he felt that the city should handle its share of the grain rather than allow Kansas City and other markets take it. The subject of “Municipal Ownership" was discussed by A. W. Jeffsris.
