Rumor comes from Girard where
the Evangelist Leigh Vernon is incar.
ceralcd in the Crawford county Jail,
to the effect that the Rev. Leigh has
made arrangements opay his fine and
will be released from Jail on October
LIST, on writ of habeas corpus. He
then Intends going ut once to his
wife's home in Southern California
where she stands ready to welcome
him with open arms, to her bed and
board. Vernon will probably change
his hame and 90 to preaching again.
Mrs. Pearson is visiting the words
fair and will probably make her flu
ture home in Indiana. Vernon will,
in all probability, not come TO joplin
to hid his friends good bye before
starting Tor the West.

ana there is every reason 10 suppose that IL
they can only get the constant aud varied
practice which Is so essential TO excellence
AT tennis they will do greater things In

past.
Next TO Omaha Hastings has been the
most prominent in Nebraska tennis this year.
she has quite a numbc Of men who are in
constant Practice and show great adeptncss
and u%ntiring interest in the game. Their
anxiety that one Of the two events in the
state tournament should be decided on the
courts OF the Hastings club indicated that
they were willing to put themselves to
trouble tnat tennis might progress in the
state. Next year IL may he taken for granted
either the singles or doubles will he played
AT Hastings.
Lincoln seems 10 have dropped from the
nigh place she held in Nebraska tennis, but
perhaps this is only temporary. Apart from

players, there has been little heard of the

Omaha daily bee., 1893-10-08

With the advent of October the tennis
season may be considered ended. There are
some enthusiasts, no doubt, who will be
sticking to IL for some time to come on pri-
vate courts, and indeed the courts of the
Omaha Tennis club on Harvey street and
Young Mems Christian ASSOCIATION courts
will not entirely drop out of use until the
snow comes, But the season is over now so
far as public tournaments and such affairs
are concerned.
There was talk when the state tourna-
ment closed in August of getting up an in
terstate meeting for the early fall, but it
never came To anything more than talk, and
it won't do now. The idea was to secure the
champions Of some of the surrounding states,
Kansas, Colorado, Missouri and Iowa, say,
and presumably any other players who
could be Induced to come, and pit them
against the cracks of Nebraska. Omaha
people had shown that they were more or
less partial To the game by their attendance
at the city and state tournaments and the
chance of adding the admission money of
a proposed fail tournament TO the all too
empty treasury of the CLUB was one which
some OF its members did not want to let go
by.
But through one delay after another the
Denver tournament was not over until close
10 lNS emu OF luSt month, ana by that time
the enthusiasm for a third Omaha meet had
died down.
The evidence of 1893 is that tennis is very
much alive IN Omaha, and indeed through
out Nebraska. The large entries at every
tournament that has been held-the city and
state championship contests in Omaha and
the two competitions at Hastings, one open
TO all Nebraskuns and the other to Hastings
men only, besides numerous smaller meet
ings at Ord and other c~ities-have shown
that there are not only plenty OF players of
merit, but that they care sufficiently for the
game to give up other cares To make the
various tournaments successes.
The season has been nota BILE, too, for the
rise OF The Younger players. There are still
the older men, of whom {. :. Culllngham Is
away at che head, with &. ii. Cookson,
Ernest Hart and plenty of others to back
him up. But this years contests would nave
had little interest If the younger men had
not been IN them.
Larry Denise has been seen before and has
won prizes before, but no one suspected him
OF being a dangerous candidate for the city
championship until he made his brave fight
In July. In August he maintained his repu-
tation and Won his reward in the capture of
the doubles championship. His partner in
this, g., III. Young, is another young player
who has come on well during the year.
But the two surprises were when CALDWELL
and Roy Austin knocked out all calculations
in the competition for the singles champion
.hlp OF Nebraska. These four boys, Denise,

IT. is rare indeed that n newspaper feels
justified in saying a good word for a saloon,

from the admirable conduct of the house. it
was il resort of unusual attractiyeness. with
its eXpanse of mirror, mosaic floors and ma
hOgany furniture. So far as surface I'M.
pressiyeness is concerned the celebrated
Hoffman house bar, New York-Ed Stokes
place-was not in il with Woods house. An
other thing IN favor of this place was the
way il was conducted. IL was like entering
a handsome jewelry store or dry goods house
TO go into Wood's-so free was the place
from the Objectionable features that are IN
separable from the common run of saloons.
There was no fear there of becoming mixed
up with the disagreeable parasites of a
large majority of such places. IL was order

the best-pay for them, good day and re-

resorts must exist that there isn't more Of

Bill Turner of Elk City says there are

ever before, and invites the writer out TO

Fred Montlnorency and Stockton Heth beat
up the stubble yesterday for quail. They
made it an even half dozen, but report hav-
ing flushed four covies, the birds, however,
being little better than peppers.
Billy Hoaglandfsays he never saw a better
flight of wild fowl than there is at Honey
creek this fall, but added that it was only
an aggravation TO shoot them, as the rank
fusteS makes III next to impossible to re-
trieve the birds. z z
George w. ketchem was down on the
Bellevue bottoms one day last week and

Omaha daily bee., 1893-10-08

One day last week, says the London Eng,
Sport and Play, there walked into our office
Il fine, well-built and Observation-Disclosures
athlete, with brown and bronzcd features,
and II powerful voice, whom | at first hardly
recognized as the old Langley Green rider,
Jack Prince. He has just returned from
America for a short %sojourn in the old coun-
try, and will be going back again on the 2Sth
inst. But before doing so he is anxious to
have a pop against any of the best profess
slonal riders in England, Just to show that
there's life in the old dog YETI as he puts
1t. 1t is eleven years since Prince first
went to America; but his time has not
been wasted on tho desert air. During that
period he has had some lively experiences
and has learned a thing or Two worth know
unexpectedly to professional cycle riders
who depend upon racing for an
very speediest of speed merchants
we possessed; and | have a very
vivid recollection of seeing him ride the last
race he ever competed in before he went
at the Aston Lower Grounds in
connection with a meeting for the
benefit of the managing director
Fl. G.. Q~uilter-and though occupying
the post of honor and conceding long
starts, Prince captured first prize in toler-
ably easy fashion. \ good deal of his rae
ing in the States has been at specially or
gaDized meetings against the fastest ~trotting
horses that couId be pitted against him, and
he made pretty well of money out of these
shows. LatJerly he has become n member
of the National Cyclists Association of
America, which he speaks of in the most
glowing terms.
Jack hoped to have the opportunity of
meeting Dick Howell in a single-handed
match before returning To the States, and
negotiations had already been going on in
the Sporting Life, but. without any intima-
ton. Howell has suddenly sailed in company
with the brothers Arthur and Alfred Robb
to America to take part in the cash prize
races over the streak, so that Prince will
have to return to the land of stars and
stripes before IA meeting can be arranged.
Prince considers English made cycles much
superior TO those of American manufacture,
and is anxious TO secure the representation
of a good Midland firm before he goes back.
He will probably be been on a Humber in the
future.

and isn't TO be considered. Still he would
make a formidable opponent for even Dixon,
and would fight him at the drop Of the hat.
The next event at the Coney Island club
will be between Horace Leeds of Atlantic
City and Billy Ernst Of Brooklyn, and will
take place tomorrow night. Leeds is, with
out a doubt, n very smart young chap. and
since his debut, about two years and a MALT
ago, he has been coming right along. His
setto with Jack McAuliffe last spring is a
good criterion TO go by, for although out
pointed by the lightweight prince, he put up
a gallant fight, which left the champions eye
in a shadow and produce other effects that
will prevent Jack from forgetting him long.
Billy Ernst Is another good one, and the con
test should be a cuckoo. He has never vet
tasted the bittcrs of a defeat in u finish fight,
although he has overthrow such clever men
as Walter Campbell and Billy Vernon. He
has an ''auctioneer'' that commands respect
