''Dllly Traffley randl tils band of-

Iioodoos wcro cooked again yesterday out aU-tlio park by the valiant willow wtclders-of McVey. The -Ramo was not very bril-liant

¬

, but ovcry known base ball term , withthe exception of a double play , was fullyrepresented. The bright particular featureof tha game was the umpiring of ColonelHaslcell , who for the Ufa of him did notappear able to tell the difference between aball and a strike. Some of his decisionscaused the rabble lo jear and hoot , but hisbeautifully modulated voice never shook.

Whltehlll rotated tor the home team , butthe enemy jumped upon Ills tortuous curveswith delightful vim. 'The son of the north ,Jamleson , was put in during Ihe seventhand wa lilt only four times , but he helpedthem out with four bases on balls. Mc.Mackln-waa In the box for the visitors and was lilthard. There Is very lltlle use In giving adetailed account of the score. Each teammade twenty-one hits and runs came In al-most

¬

every Inning. The game was a, see-saw

¬

throughout , arul It was only In the lastInning that we pounded out the seven runathat cinched lit The errors of several of theteam were sickening and In the sixth. InningIII11I7 Moran went to sleep and let McFad-den and Traffley make a double steal. Score :

A

.

great racing- meeting will begin tomorrowafternoon at Hush park , Independence , la. ,

on the trnck mmlc famous by the rise anilfall ot Charley Williams. This"la the kite-shaped track which first attracted the at-

tention¬

of harness horsemen toward the westand especially Iowa , and Is the bit of turfwhich will always bo'connected with thenames of Axtcll and Allerton. Williamsmade the ( rack and town , spending$2pO.OOOfor that purpose , but reverses came hetried to do too- much and ho Is now managerand part owner of a track over at Galesburg ,

III. The track which ho built at Independ-ence

¬

is probably the finest kite-shaped courseever constuclcd , and besides bringing outthe fastest clip of the trotters antl pacers ,

gives horses a tiptop record , somethingdesired by every breeder and owner. WhenWilliams broke up In business It was givenout that there would bo no more great racingmeetings In Iowa , but a number of enter-prising

¬

citizens thought differently , and theyformed themselves Into the IndependenceDriving Park association , and during thenext five- days they propose to show that'ho spirit of Williams goes marching on Inthat town , just the same as when tha notedhorseman waa at the zenith of his turf glory ,

The officers of the new association have or-ranged a program of twenty-one trottingand pacing racea for purses aggregating25000. The money Is nil on deposit In onoot the local banks , and when , the winnersare announced from tha judges' stand Ihiowner can go to the secretary of tjie as-sociation

¬

and get his check (or the amounthe Is entitled to. Such men as CharleyThompson , Zach Stout and A. II. Farwellhave charge of the affairs ot the associationand they have secured 400 entries for thismeeting , among whom there are 130 nnlmalswith marks below 2:20.: Thirty-two lasthorses from. Nebraska are entered and theywill glvo the hdrses of the Hawkeyc statea hot chase for the money In every event.The managers have arranged Monday nstheir "BlueIllbbon day , " and will admit theladles free on that day. They have securedreduced rates on the railroads , and willhave a special attraction In the shape of-

a fine horse show In "ie of the largo stablesIn the paddock. Tha racing will continue fetflvo days , and there will bo four events oneach day's program , so that the people wllget their money's worth. Another tlitnjj themanagers have done , which will be ap-preciated

¬

by the public. Is that they havefixed the price of admission at 50 cents ancthis admits any person to all parts of thegrand stand or grounds , except the quarterstretch , which Is reserved for the ownersand horsemen who are specially Interested In-

tha meeting. All the managers need nowto make this meeting ono of the most suc-cessful

¬

In the middle western states , Isfavorable weather.

The Idol of the trotting turl , and. In fact ,of every true turfman , Just at present , Is-

"Sweet Little Allx. " the beautiful bay'mareowned by Morris Jones of lied Oak , la. , nmlwho Is now being cdlnpalgned with MonroeSalisbury's speedy string of California horses.The animal captures the hearts of loVers ofhorseflesh at first glance because pi lierdocile , kittenish manner , her beauty of Jorm ,

being oneot the most perfectly formed ani-mals

¬

oiu the turfv and her pure gait whenshe Is out In a race , as .v-cll as her gamequalities on the track. Probably , more In-

terest¬

Is centprert.ifln this little mar ? nowthan -has cvar been glven any other- turfperformer because 'of her ease In traveling amile at Washington park last-week In a raqe-In 2:05V4.: She beat the track record andcame with In a second and a quarter ofequaling Nancy Hank's mark of 2M; ( , andhorsemen freely predict that Allx will lowerthat before the close of the season , In factAndy McDowell , her driver, has agreed to-

flend her against the Nancy Hanks recordat Terre Haute sometime In the near future.-Allx

.

Is one of the colts bred by Dan Hayesof Muscatlne , nnd by him was sold to MorrisJones In his Chicago sale In 1889. She repre-sents

¬

more crosses of Abdallah I. than anyother horse now on the turf. She took totrotting naturally , and has never neededthe whip In any of her races , In fact Jonesavers that he never struck her wllli thebud bul once , and that was to cure her of aslight fault , which she has never repeated.-Allx

., Nancy Hanks and Dlrectum arc the

only three trailers who have traveled asfast as she did at Washington park. Du-Bols

-, "Pa" Ilamlin , John Kelly and other

horsemen ure of the firm belief that thetrack was from one and a halt to iwo sec-onds

¬

slow , and predict that If she can findas favorable circumstances for her trial tobreak all records ns did Nancy Hanks atTerre Haute sue will get a record of 2:03.When Jones was In Omaha In Juno he pointedto Ally's record uf 2:07: % and said : "Allxand I will lower that mark more than fourseconds before I put her Into her winterQuarters. " Can the gallant little animal gothat fast !

* *

Allx knocked a half second oft her TerreHaute record of 2:05i.: made the second weekIn August , at Washlnglon park last Mondayby traveling ah exhibition tnllo In 205i.:

The track was fully two- seconds slow whenshe made the efforl. It had bcn announcedthat she would go against Nancy Hanks' rec-ord

¬

of 2:04: , but owing to tha unfavorableconditions nnd slowness of the track , Mc-

Dowell¬

said lie would .only try ( o beat thetrack record of 2OGU.: She reduced thismark , a second , and finished strong andfresh. She went the first half In 1:03"4: , andthoii completed the mile in 1:02: , and Mc-Dowell Is authority for the statement thatshe could have beaten this time a full sec-ond

¬

If he had pushed her lo the talk , As-It IE , her'performance Is really more cred-itable

¬

than that of Nancy Hanks under themost perfect cf conditions. The exact timeof 2:05 % has. been taade by three trotters.Nancy Hanks trotted to that record at In-dependence , August 31 , 1892. Dlrectum didhis mile in the same time at Nashville Oc-

tober¬

18 of last year , and Allx has nowslopped to the same figures. Before Allxwas started , ' C. J. Hamlln , owner of Fantnsy , a possible rival of Allx , remarked thatAllx nor any other trotter could make themile In less than 2:06: % , Afterward he said :

"It was n grand performance ," with bigemphasis on the "grand. " and repeated ! "Agrand performance , most decidedly. The condltlons. were not the best , but certainly bet-ter than liad she gone earlier In tha day. "The consensus of opinion evcrywhere amonghorsemen was that the track was slow , muchslower than at Terre Haute , and while herperformance Monday did not compare;with her race record , It was rated as amongthe very best , If not actually the bbst , milesever trotted against time.

Billy Paxlon's Two Strikes was In a hotrace lu the 2:11: pace at Wathlngctn pirk-on Wednesday , He ktarled In the race as npoor choice for place , but after the first' heatthe pools sold on him were 1 to 3 for place.and once It looked as If he was going to win ,but his rival , Fldol , was too strong a finisher ,und won the race In straight heats , but hadto be driven to thC limit In each heat to bealthe Omaha horse. Two Strikes pushed Tldolunder the wire In tha secnd brut In i':10Vi: ,nnd lost by less than half a length. Coler-idge

YOIIK. Aug. 25. Futurlly day wasan Ideal day for a summer oullng. Thebrtezo came In from the sea ; It was cooi andcomfortnbloi nnd one of Ihobest days forracing In a month. About 25,000 personswere present at the Coney Island Jockeyclub track. Long before the first race wasrun the bookmakers began lo lay oddsagainst the starters In the Futurity. Butterfiles was the choice by n largo majority , andC to G was the best price obtainable on her ,

closing at 4 to 6 odds on , The others rangedfrom G to 1 against Monaco , H union andPrim.

The first betting was made at thattlmo and was as follows : Waltzer , JO to 1 ;nultcrflles , 6 lo 5 ; Sadie , 30 lo 1 ; Salvation ,

30 to 1 ; Gutla Percha , 20 lo 1 ; Agllalor , 12-

to 1 ; Doggetl , 40 to 1 : Callfornls , 8 to 1 ;Brandywlne , 10 to 1 ; Cromwell , 25 to 1 ;Counter Tenor , 7 to 1 ; Manchester , 10 to 1 ;Connolrcur , 8 to 1 ; Monaco , 4 lo Ij St.Veronica and Bombazolle , no betting.

Turf lovers were out bright and earlyand with anxious eyes scanned the horizonto find any Indication of unruly elementsthat might Interfcn with the day's sport.A shadow crept over their faces as numerousdark clouds appeared In the heavens andthe dampness of the utmogphero fannedtheir countenances. However , these un-picpltlous

-signs did not deter them from

getting an early start for ShecpshcadBay and every .boat for Coney Island afterthe .dawn of day was well filled with peopleanxious to secure a favorable seat fromwhich the great Futurity race might bs-seen. . The Indications were for a record at¬

tendance.-HACING

.

EVENT OF THH YEAH.The event of the day , the great Futurity.

la the featureof the year In the racingline , from a financial standpoint , it la-

wcrth a forluno lo Iho winner belween $50-000

,-and 60000. In fact. It Is also a bl (*

bitting race. Every horse In the race hada financial following and probably $600,000will change hands on the result. The liorscswithout exception wore on the razor's edgeof condition. There were fifteen horsesnamed as starlcrs , and , as Iho owner ofeach horse had to pay 4370 for the privilegeof starting , they must all have consideredthat their own horses had a fair chance ofbringing In UID cold. Leading sportsmenand the morning papers were almost unani-mous

¬in declaring Gideon & Daly's Butter¬

flies to be the favorite , because of herprevious trials and the position of herowters. She sold favorite In the Louisvillepools last night' . Among the others whoreceived popular support , however , wereIluppert's Counter Tenor , O. II. "Belmont'sDrandywlne , Dr. Knapp'o California , Gideon& Daly's Wallzar and Louis Stuart'sMonaco.

The stretch frdm the start of the Futurllycourse Is wide and there was room for everycontestant to have a fair chance. Waltzerwas 'Iho lop weight , 125 pounds up. Thestarters , owners , weight and Jockeys arp asfollows :

The original Futurity was won by ProctorKnott , owned by Sam Hryant of Kentucky.The fqCgwIng year W. L.

Morello look tbetiext prize , and last year Messrs. Keenewon Ihe big race with Domino.

HOW THE FILLY WON IT.The race was called al 4:20: , but Ihe delayal the post seemed Interminable. Breakafter break was made , After fifty mlnutoadelay they wore senl away lo a good alart ,

Butterflies ahead. In ,front of California.Down to the quarter polo they flashed , and ,curious to relate , five flllles wcro leadingthe field , and all looked to ha going well.Butlerfims ahead. The pace was hot , andsoon began to falter. When the Jialf mllepost was reached Butterflies had a load oftwo-tcnlhs , and Griffin was looking back atthe others and easing his mount. Agitator ,under the slrong urging of Taral , had comeup lo second place , and was a head In frontof Connossleur. Gutla Percha was fourlh-nnd California flflh. Around the turn Intothe main track they came with a mad rush ,and while Dutlerflles seemed to be goingeasily , the olhers were being urged to theirutmost to catch the fast flying filly. Itseemed to be all over but the shouting , whensuddenly a darky , wearing a maroon andscarlel Jacket , astride of a beautiful chest-nut

¬

with a white Maze on his face nnd fourwhite feel , shot out of the bunch behindand set sail for the apparently easy winner.It was Drandywlne coming with the wind.Griffin heard the thunder of his hoofs be ¬

hind , and glancing back , saw the streak ofchestnut lighting, with Clayton riding likemad , after him. There was no lime lo-wasle now, and dowi. t ie clever lightweightJockey sat , digging with his heels and rid-ing

¬

for dear life. He could help his mountbut little , for she waa tired now , and withevery Jump Brandywlne was catching her.Now he Was at her tall ; then his white nosewas at her saddle , and Griffin saw It pokedunder his eyes , and he had realized that hohad to ride as hard as ho know how to landthe rich stakes for Gideon & Daly and win asmall fortune for the thousands who had beton the filly ho was riding. Inch by Inch thecolt was gaining on him. and ho was strain-ing

¬

his eyes for the finish , now only a fewyards away. A few moro jumps , and ( ho-Iftnlsli line was passed by a tired boy on atired filly , and the rich stakes were won by-a head. The crowd cheered the filly , but Itwould have been, cheering the colt had therace been fifty yarda farther. There wasplenty of cheering for G'lffln when he- cameback to be weighed , and all the way to thepaddock he waa carried. In a floral Jockey's-chair.. Gideon & Daly were happy and BO

was the trainer , John Ilyland. for this addedone moro to the jnany rich stakes they havewon this season. Butlerflles Is a bay fillyby Sir Dlxon out ot Mercedes. Results :

A large and fiiipreclutlvo audience sawthe Omaha. Cricket ci .t) make "mince meal"of the aggregation frjm the Union Pacificshops. Although It uns n case of the clubplaying twelve against sixteen of the Shops ,the former won "hands down. " CaptainLuwrie , losing the toss , was obliged lo dowhat In all probability he would have donefrom choice semi his men in Ilrst. A. S.Cleave und C. H. Cookson were the llratto represent the club nt the wickets.Neither of these batsmen did much , nMGlcave was unfortunate enough to getbowled off hlH pads , and Cookson was "run-out. . "

New , after making- fourteen In his usualcorrect stylq , also ran himself out , whileTaylor , who went In , "second wicket down ,"nftor making four was caught by Gun-ner

¬

off Illchcllcu'H bowling.Wilson , who followed Taylor, on being

Joined by McPheraon , began to make thingslively for the Holders. Both these batsmencommenced scoring rapidly , nor were theyseparated before they had Increased thescore by thlrly-sevcn runs. Lnwrle , aftermaking two , vyas caught , and Doyle , withsixteen lo his credit , was retired by aneasy ball from Douglas. O. II , Vaughan ,with eight lo his credit , ami Uvason , withfive , "not out , " were the only others on theside to moke decent scores. The lastwicket , eight extras , fell for two runsshort of vhe century.

With ninety-eight runs staring him In theface , Captain Nealc sent Messrs. Coffee andInnes to Ihe wickets to face the bowling of-Messrs. . G. Vnughan und Doyle. The firsttwo or three overs proved disastrous to thebatsmen , as Coffee had to content himselfwith 1. nnd Innes with less. Bowers andShepherd , after malting 6 anil 1 respectively ,

had to take a back seat. Of the remainingbatsmen , J. Strlbllng. Taylor , Gunner nndBarnetl were Iho only ones to do anything ,and After accumulating 33 the Shops wereput out of their misery.

The Interstate tennis tournament hold mthis clly the first flvo days of 5u.it week de¬

veloped the most. Interesting tennis It hasbeen the Ktoil fortune of the enthudasts ofIhls city ever lo sec. From a tennis stand-point

¬

the tournament waa a very decidedsuccess. Many crack players from outsidethe city were present. Three state chain-plena

-were here , Whltonun , champion of

Missouri , Furqtilmr of Iowa n'nU Austin ofNebraska. And what Is of great Interestla the' fact that It was most conclusivelyshown that Omaha has players of very highrank. Contrary lo expectation , both the firstprizes wcro kept here.

From a financial point of view the tour ¬

nament was not so successful , The manage-ment

¬

of the tennis association , from theIpresident down to little. Sammy Dyer , whowas most Industrious at the door , workedIIthard to nuke It a success. But with allttheir efforts they nro considerably behind Inthe treasury. The people did not turn outas the affair deserved , and Ihcrcby nol onlyworked an Injury lo the assoclallon. who hadgone to BO much trouble nnd expense In ar¬ranging and bringing off the tournament , butmissed games that were almost ns grod asthose of the national tournament at New-port -1 , and there were very few that werenot above mediocrity , It Is to be hopedthat Iho efforls of the association will bobolter appreciated In the .future. To bosure , the tlmo for holding the tournamentwas somewhat unfxrtunate , Omaha being leomuch disturbed politically. Hut still thereshould.have been a much better attcnUinco.

WILL IIB IlEPEATED N13XT YEAH.Dut despite the financial discouragement ,so successful was the tournament from thettnnls polnl of view that It will bo .repeatednext year. By that time It Is proposed tohave the association become n member ofthe United Stales Lawn Tennis assoclallon ,and the records will then become official.Doubtless , also , more outside players willattend In that case , It would bo belter Ifthe tournament occurred earlier in the sea ¬son , to cnablo such players as wlahec ! , toaUeml the Chicago tou'-iiamont and laterthose of the eastThe management of the tournament wasvery pod. The courts were kept In flnocondition and there was very llttlo delay InBetting the games started. This has not al¬ways been the case In past tournaments Inhe city , and perhaps the thought of thislept many away. Tlio umpires wcro efllctcntand dealt fairly. In closely contested matchesIt might be well hereafter not to select allthe Hnetnen from Omaha players. This Is notmeant to Imply any unfairness In the workot those who officiated , but a man cannothelp being partial to a player from his owncity In doubtful plays.The matches In the doubles wcro all good.

As Ins been stated , the result was a greatsurprise and many are still Inclined to be ¬lieve that Ihe best team did 'nol win. Far-quhar

-and Nicholson , Ihe Lomars team ,played an Inferior game In the final * . Theirplay in the matches with Austln-ll.ittlu and

CaldwcllHaskellwere much superior. Hartand Young played a good name , however , andduo credit must be given them. But 'theyare not the best team tint could be pickedfrom Omaha talent. Austin and Ilaskcll ,from Ihe play of the week , would be muchstronger. Battln cannel play with Austin.Ilaskcll and Caldwell make a strong com ¬

bination. The weakest pair In tha tourna-inant

-was , the It-incog City , team , Hmmort

and Whitman. The strongssl was Farquharand Nicholson. The team work of this pairwas fine. Of tha two Nicholson is the betterdouble player, his net work being somethingremarkable. Faniubar Is more al homo InIho singles.

SINGLES WnitE GOOD.The later rounds in the singles brought out

very good games. In the semi-finals theplayers were the champions and Oullmbtto-of Hastings. This latter player put up a finegame throughout the tournament and ap ¬

peared to bo familiar with fast players. Aus-tin's

¬

playing In Ihe finals waa n surpriseand will place him , If kepi up. In the firstrank nex year. '
