DID UP DENVER.
Minneapolis Takes the Second
Game From the Pixies Peak
Men.

Minneapolis Takes the Second
Game From the Pixies Peak
Men.
The Flour City ball tossers crowded
their percentage up notch by adding
one to their list of victories yesterday.
The story is ably told in the score-nine
hits for Minneapolis and FIVE for Den
yer. three errors for Denver and one
for Minneapolis, nine bases on balls to
men in the gray uniforms and three to
those in the white. Dave Rowe swears
that he was robbed by the umpire, but
one minds him, and the kicking done
by the Minneapolis crankS is sure
guarantee that the home team got
none the best of it. Miller made
the only error charged to Minneapolis.
1t was throw. to first that was wild,
almost to weirdneSs.
IT GAVE KIRBY THREE BASES
and Denver the only run they get, Kirby
and White being the only Colorado men
to get beyond second. With Kirby at
third, White hit long fly to Foster who
couldn't get it to the plate in time to cut
off the third baseman, who crossed the
plate just as CrOssley was gathering in
the horse hide some feet away. Two of
the Miller'S three runs were made in the
sixth, errors by Rowe and Kirby, the
latter muffing Miller's pup up fly, and
base on balls to Crossley. Crossley
scored again in the eighth on his own
single, hot one to left from DrisehePs
bat, and scorcher to center, which
was Fosters third hit. Lack OF compe-
tent co,.chers lost Minneapolis two easy
tallieS in the seventh, and in the fifth
Foster opened the inning with clean
three-bagger into the angle of the cen
ter field fence, but not one of the next
three men could do ANYTHING to bring
him iii. Hengle and Morrison both
TRIED TO SACRIFICE,
but the first succeeded only in going
out while the latter got first on Fosters
out at the plate. In the eighth inning,
with Crossley on third, Foster came to
bat, and as he stepped to the plate
was presented with an elegant bat
of solid polished rosewood bound with
three wide silver bands. After looking
at it he bowed to the grand stand,
turned around and knocked the ball
out to center for clean single, CroSsley
scoring, the only earned run of the
whole game. The bat was presented
by Aid. Woodward. McDermott was
so lame from the effects of the foul tip
he caught on his shin the day before
that he could not Officiate, so Hanscom,
the regular local substitute, umpired
the game and gave fair satisfaction.
Turner, just released from the Mime
apolis team, appeared in center field in
white uniform, and got a generous
round of applause when he came to
bat. The score:

Itvas brilIiaI opening of the row.
Ing eve t of the year in the Northwest
There was an immense crowd, and the
races were the prettiest that have ever
taken place under the auspices of the
Minnesota and Winnipeg Amateur Row
ing association. Early in the afternoon
the crowds began to assemble.
They came by train, in carriage s
stelm launches, yachts: row boats
and every conceivable convey
ance. And when the last
train from the city reached the lake 1t
was packed with boating men and those
Interested in boating. Gay parties
raced down the dock and boarded steam
launches that had been chartered for
them. while others stood in the pavil-
ion and looked at the long, slender
boats which were soon to shoot through
the water with such terrific speed.
There were parties without num-
Der. Nearly all Of the society peo-
ple of st. Paul and Minneapolis
were there and the men looked very
swell in their natty suits of white. Some
of these Yachting costumes were SuS-
piciously new, and many of them were
very elaborate. The girls were charm
ing and altogether Irresistible in their
pretty frockS. And so interested were
they in the race and the braWny young
chaps who we're prepared to pull Jew
lungs out of themselves, that they for
got to be shocked when they caught a
vision of a muscular leg OF arm very
much uncovered.
But Notwithstanding the crowd from
the Twin Cities, the Winnipeg people
seemed everywhere. Their cOlOrS were
the most prominent. They were seen
everywhere, for there are beautiful Ia
dies in the Winnipeg party, and they
were indefatigable in pinnlng the
little bits of dark red and blue
ribbon on the breasts of gay gallantS.
And the enthusiasm and money OF Win
nipeg visitors made them prominent
too. 1t is said that they have about
s.. 900 to wager on the races and that
81 900 of it was up yesterday. Banker
Alloway, it is said, has $1,000 with him,
and he proposes to double it or lose it
before he returns home.
They were beautiful races. 1t was a
contest from start to finish. There
were no walk-overs. To be sure the
water was choppy, but the course was a
favorable one, and fast time was made,
and above all there were no delays.

men. It's great bet. Muchmore can't
lose. He's a sure winner"
Thus shouted Smooth-faced cock
eyed individual who was selling pools.
Near by sat Col. Tanner, Minneapolis
boss gambler. The colonel was running
the pools. Nobody knew whose money
was betting against Muchmore, but it
was said that $1,000 was put up against
him by Winnipeg people, and that it
was mostly Alloway's money.
But Muchmore could loose. and did,
notwithstanding the booksellers tip.
He was defeated by A. c. L. Fox.
The Winnipegger, Fox, defeated
MuchmOre, the veteran. A mere tyrO
outrowed the winner Of many hard
race. 1t was pretty race. and the ex-
element was int il Sc. Muchmore was
in the middle, Turnbull outside and
Fox inside. They got away together.
Fox took the lead and set the pace with
81 stroke, with Muchmore and Turnbull
following easily, the former pulling 81
leading by two lengths. and MuchmOre
did not seem to be pulling. As they got
away Fox increased his lead and il be-
gan to look as if he would win
with ease. Then "Much" began to
put on a few more pounds, and
his fairy shell leaped out of
the water. Gradually he began to gain
on the Canadian, while Turnbull was
suffering from bad water. But young
Fox was pulling in great form. and it
was with an effort that Much" came
up to him. About quarter of mile
from the line the MinneapOlitan pulled
up even, but Fox spurted and
again placed clear water be-
tween the two boats. Then Much"
made a squirt and closed the gap. They
were now within 200 yards of the line,
and Muchmore was coming like the
wind. But the swell from steam
launch caught him and his boat stopped.
This gave Fox a great advantage, but
the tall Lurlne made a remend-
Gus effort He gained rapidly. There
was hush for moment, and the
Winnipeggers " ed like madmen. Fox
won by half a length. The Canadians
danced and screamed and hOwled. and
when he came to the dock they picked
him up and carried him in. FoX's time
was 11:02, and Muchmore's 11:0315.

North DakOtanS Are Stalled
on the Question Of
County Courts.
Judge Carland'S Offer to COM
promise Is Likely to
Be Accepted.
Montana Legislators Prohib-
tied From Accepting Free
Railroad Passes.
The Lobby Is Asserting It's
Power in the Olympia
Convention.

BISMARCK. Dak.. Aug. 2.-The county
court question is still before the conven-
tiCn. A compromise on the question
has been offered, and the entire subject
postponed until tomorrow. Judge Car
land. who has led the opposition to the
establishment of the county courts,
offered substitute providing that when
ever the voters of a county having
population of 1900 or over shall decide
by majority vote that they desire the
jurisdiction of county court increased
above that limited by the constitution.
then such courts shall have concurrent
jurisdiction with the district courts
in all civil actions where the
amount in controversy does not exceed
$1,000, and in all criminal actions below
the grade of felony. In case of such
decision by the county justices of the
peace shall have no exclusive jurisdic-
ton. This compromise is favored by
over majority of the convention, but
there is an opportunity for change Of
sentiment before the matter comes up
for discussion tomorrow. The prin.
cipal fight of the day was over the prop
osition to give every organized county
representative in the legislature. This
was opposed by the Red river valley
counties, and all of the eastern portion OF
the territory as giving the sparsely
settled western portion OF the territory
more power in the legislature than it is
entitled to. In reply to this argument
the members from the west claimed
that. inaSmuch as the Red River valley
will have absolute
CONTROL OF THE SENATE,
the western counties should be given
representation. The western men were
defeated, and the convention decided
upon having the members of the house
OF representatives elected at large from
the senatorial districts. Williams,
of Burleigh, introduced reso-
luton that the homestead and
exemption laws of the territory
shall never be repealed by the state, but
it was jumped on by nearly every dele
gate, and was defeated by an almost
unanimous vote. Allin, of Walsh,
be $500 instead of 5000, as provided
in the report of the committee, and that
the lieutenant governors be reduced
from $1,000 to $500. This amendment
was also defeated and the salary of the
governor and lieutenant governor will
remain at $1,000 and 81, 600 respectively.
The committee on public Institutes is
still struggling to reach report. but
there is little prospect OF success for
several days.
The convention has declined to ac,
cept the invitation Of West Superior to
attend the waterways convention at
that place, owing to the fact that the
convention is behind with its work, and
it will be at least ten days before final
adjournment will be reached. The
senate comm tee on irrigation and re-
clamatiOn of arid lands is expected to
arrive here Monday, when the eonven-
ton vii confer with the senat, on

THE JUNIOR FOUR.
The Minnesotas Win in Very
Hot Race,

1OC hacc'
A great deal was expected of the first
race. the Junior four, and it was Splen-
did affair, 1t was but little after 6
when the crews appeared upon the
water. First to appear were the big
WinnipegS in their dark blue Jerseys,
and the red w. cleaning upon their
breasts. Then came the DuluthS, in
white, with little stripe of red. And
then the Minnesotas shot out OF the
boat house, and they looked like lot of
demons in their suits of brilliant red.
And when the time came they rOWed
like demons.
The Winnipegs were given the out
side, the Duluths the middle and the
MinnesOtas the inside, thus giving the
last named crew the advantage of the
smoother water. When the shot was
fired the Duluths caught the water first,
the Minnesotas next. The Duluths
began a thirty-eight stroke which shot
them to the front. while the MinneSotas
came along slower with a thirty
six. and the Winnipegs took
things easy and dipped their
oars thirty-fOur times in minute. Like
a shot, the Duluths started for their
tdrning buoy. There was never such
steering seen on the lake. Not foot
out of their way did they go. AS they
gained they increased their stroke to
forty, and in the first half-mile they
were two lengths ahead. The MinnesOtas
did not steer so well,and they hugged the
shore too closely. But they saw their
error in time and pulled little harder.
The Winnipegs went out into the lake
too far and they had a hard time of it in
the rough water. The Duluths turned
three lengths ahead of the Minnesotas,
while the Winnipegs were last. The
Duluth crew started back at terrific
rate. pulling 40 strokes, but the
terrible pace soon began to tell
upon them, and their stroke
became ragged. Half way home, the
MinneSotas caught up to them, For a
little way the Duluth spurted. but they
were exhausted, and the Minnes0tas
easily passed them. The Winnipegs
began to bowl along towards the Mime
sofas, having increased their stroke to
SO. Then the Reds Spurted, and their
shell shot through the water. The Win
nipeg still kept up the spurt, but
the MinneSOtas met it. There was a
suppressed rumble along the shore,
then a wild yell mingled with the shrill
whistles of dozens of launches and
steamboats,, and the MinnesOtas crossed
the line two lengths ahead. 9:4l. The
Winnipegs finished in 9:51, and the Du-
luths in 9:5S. The time is very fast, as
the strong head wind made it at
least a minute slower than it
would have been in smooth water. The
work of the Minnesota crew was superb,
They pulled with strength, evenness
and confidence. Their recovery was
perfect. They surprised even those
who were most confident in their win
ming. The Duluth crew put in too much
Had they taken things more easily they
stood a great chance Of Tinning. The
Winnipeg crew displayed great power,
but their stroke was too slow, and they
wasted much time in recovering.

KlLLEN ON A TEAR.
He Became Enraged at What a
COiored Man Said and Turned

Coiored Man Said and Turned
Loose.
There was considerable talk about the
city yesterday that Pat Killen, the
prize-fghter, during little spree early
in the morning, used his big fists indis-
criminately, says the Portland Orego-
nian. 1t was said that Killen entered
an Alder street saloon in company with
several companions, male and female,
about 6 o'clock in the morning. A
young colored boy named Hart came to
the saloon soon after, and being an old
friend of the pugilist was asked to join
in drink. Hart at first declined, but
was finally prevailed upon to accept
the invitation. Killen and Hart there
upon entered into a conversation as to
the merits and demerits of different
men who have been in the ring.
"Pat Sheedy," said Hart, Il consider
to be a gentleman, and l have always
found him to be SUCH"
This was distasteful to Killen. With
the remark, "What is that you say about
Sheedy, you black -?" Killen struck
Hart blow that sent him to the floor.
Killen turned loose on Guy Weilder,
'1Butch' Barrett, and milkman, who
were in the saloon and punched them.
The milkman, who is small sickly
man, had just entered the saloon to de-
liver his milk. 1t was stated last night
that warrants would be issued for Kill
lens arrest on charges of assault and
battery.

Searle will win. Hanlan said the Aus

higher class than the Americans. Base

TALKING AGAINST TIME.
Statesmen at Sioux Falls Do Moth
ing but Chatter.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Aug. 2.-Practi-
cally the only business done by the
South Dakota constitutional convention
was at the morning session, when the
amendment came up to make elections
for state officers and legislators cOinci-
dent with those for congressman and
county officers. After debate lasting
three hours the amendment was lost by
a tie vote, but was afterwards recon-
sidered and is still pending.
at the evening session the amend
ment to limit the first term of the state
officers to January, 1891, was carried by
a vote of 40 to SO. This will cause an
election of state officers next year and
make all elections cOincident.

for Attending a Prize Fight.

BALTIMORE, Nd, Aug. .2-H. Lee
Clarke, reporter for the Sun, was ar
rested to-day. charged with "engaging
and participating in an unlawful as
semblage'' last Sunday, to witness a
prize fight between Pete Heron and
Jerry Sadtler, this afternoon. His
counsel claimed that Mr.. Clarke
was at the fight as the represta-
tive of a newspaper. He was there
engaged in his professional dut y, and
for the purpose of bringing to the
knowledge of the community an unlaw-
full proceeding. He was surprised that
the writ was not extended to the Sun
Itself Justice Herbert said he could do
nothing except take the reporters bond
for appearance at court, and he was re-
leased in $500 bail. The case will be
heard Tuesday next.
