BARKER BOOKED TO WIN.
BOstOnians Will Back Him Heavily
Against J. L. Reed.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
Boston, Aug. 6.-The checker con-
test to take place in Chicago next month
between e. f. Barker, of this city. and
James j. Reed, of Chicago, for a stake
of $1,000 and the championship of the
world, is looked forward to with no little
interest by the deVOIeeS of the silent
game here. Although Barker has lost
the last two battles, one TO Reed and the
other to Freeman. of Providence, he Is
looked upon as ''sinch" by many Of
the experts in the east. There are a
few players in Boston, however, that
entertain an idea that Francis will not
be as well posted on analysis as his up-
ponent. In this they will be greatly
mistaken, as the most eminent eX-
FOUNDER of the game of draughts in the
world is devoting his leisure hours in
solving the intrIcacieS of the game with
the eX-champiUn. If Barker wins
the championship of the world, which
lie undoubtedly will, he intends
to adopt Minneapolis as his home. He
will engage in some business that will
enable him to devote considerable time
to checkers, and. to use his own words,
''it will take dandy to win the cham
piOnShip" from him. Besides G. +. Bar
ker, Boston is the home of good many
excellent checker players. Hetfner,
Grover, Wright, Irwin, Parrow, Isiah
Barker and Durgin are all excellent
manipulatorS of the magic squares"
Heffner was once champion of America,
having defeated Freeman, who is ac-
knowledged by all players as the finest
in the world. The other players. with
the exception of Isiah Barker and Gro
yer, rank in with the same class as

THIS CAPS THE CLIMAX.
Minneapolis Beaten by the Recon-
structed OmahaS.

Minneapolis opened a series with the
reconstructed OmahaS yesterday after
noon and promptly dropped the first
game after having it won. SOmmers, a
new man from Evansville, IND, played
first and played acceptable. He seeh.s
to be a good man and will stick. Vent,
who was billed to play second, has not
yet arrived. killen was taken out of
the box in the seventh inning after one
man had been put out, and Rettger,
also a new man, substituted. He
gave evidence of beng a first-class
man, striking out four of the five sue
ceedIng batSmen. The game was char
acteriZed by costly errors on both sides.
Minneapolis made a tally in each inning
for four innings, ali of them through
gross errors OF the visitors. In the fifth
McQuaid'S double and SOmmerS' home
run gave two more. In the sixth two
hits, base on balls and Nalsh's error
gave two more. and in the seventh
double and TWO singles gave the locals
their last tally. Mcclellan, for Omaha,
got around in the first inning by being
hit with pitched ball.a sacrifice, passed
ball and Darling'S error. Three blanks
were then drawn. In the fifth
four singles and Whites error netted
two runs. In the sixth, but for Tired
ways muff of Nhitehead'S fly, the side
would have been retired without run.
As it was the visitors went at Killen
rough shOd. Tredway mutfed another
fly and made wild throw, the total
result of the circus being five unearned
runs. In the seventh there were some
| fireworks for Killen's benefit, and a
dizzy old error on Minnehan's part.
After four men had chased themselves
home, Killen went to the bench and
Rettger into the box. That settled the
run getting. as he struck the next two
men out. and in the eighth famed out
two of the three.

Ball Team Chan ges.

Second Baseman Hengie and Catcher
Dugdale have been Internationally re-
lease from the Minneapolis team. Pro-
prietor Hatch says that Hengle has
been adisorganizer. Moreover, ''Moxie"
is a good deal of arecOrd player. He
cares more for himself than for the
team. Rumor has it, too, that he has
been too asiduous i'll blowing foam
from the beer. Dugdale also has the
reputation of being a disorganlzer.
Dukes case is unsettled yet. He has
declared that he won't play with Mime
apolis any more. He hasn't been re-
leased yet.

unfortunate of commercial customs.

never honor sight draft.
If he is notified that one has been
drawn on him he promptly RENTS by

the sight draft go to protest. AS result
his credit has been ruined at one hundred
banks and his rating is comparatively
bad
1t is utterly unjust to condemn man
for refusing to honor one of these instru.
ments, as they can be drawn upon with
out any reason whatever, and without
the slightest evidence of Indebtedness.
Banks have again and again agitated
the question of refusing to accept a draft

charges; but this has not been done, and
at the present time money is actually
lost in this branch of the business. st

Tuesday the people of Oakesdale were
notified by Frank Brown that there was
a dead man lying under a straw stack
In field on his ranch, says the Sun
The coroner at Colfax was duly notified
OF the fact, and being unable to attend,
requested j. F. Fisk, Esq, justice of the
peace, to hold an inquest. This duty
being little extra judicial for justice,
Mr.. Fisk asked Attorney King to his
aid, and at once issued call for Jury
of inquest to meet at the place where
deceased lay. This they did, and after
viewing the remains and hearing the
testimony of Frank Brown, rendered a
verdict that the man, whose name they
could not ascertain, died from dose of
poison self administered, an empty one
eighth ounce vial labeled strychnine be-
ing found near the corpse, and from ap-
parent preparation and arrangement Of
the body 1t was evidently suicide. He
lay on his back, legs straight out, hands
crossed on his breast, and had evidently
died without struggle He was about
30 years of age, and had nothing on his
person to give any clue to his name or
place of residence other than a brown
paper wrapper of Aaron Kuhn's Celfax

Cows No Longer Own Fort Dodge.

The Fort Dodge COW, whose proud DO
sition as queen of the city has made her
famous the world over, has been deposed.
A herd law was passed by almost a
unanimous vote of the people at the re-
cent election shutting off all the priv
leges which that favored animal has en-
joyed with perfect immunity for twenty
years. The result of the election was a
great surprise to the friends of the COW,
who had supposed her firmly intrenched
in popular favor. The overwhelming
victory of the anti-cow factions is laid
to the tremendous agitation of a year
ago, which held up the COW thraldom of
the city to the ridicule of the civilized
world. Anti-cow agitators in the coun-
try over will be encouraged in their work
by this famous victory in this hitherto
impregnable stronghold of the bovine.
The vote was ten to one against the free
dom of the cow.-Cor. Chicago Tribune.
