STATE SPORTSMEN'S SHOOT
Nineteenth Annual Session of the Nebraska

MANY EXPERT SHOTS IN ATTENDING
Promise OF Good Sport Draws Together the
Really Good Men at the Trap
Arrangements Made for the
Various Events.

The nineteenth annual tournament Of the
Nebraska State Sportsmen association opens
at o'clock this morning on the beautiful
end of the big bridge The general manage
ment Of the shoot is In the hands Of Omaha's
champion wing shot, Frank S. Parmelee,
which is all the guarantee necessary that it
will be conducted in a thoroughly efficient
manner.
Already there are large nmuber of for
eign shooters here and several large delega-
tions will get in this morning. There is
every prospect that the tournament will be
one of the most successful in the associa-
tion's history. The fact that $500 in cash has
been added to the purses is alone sufficient
to prove unusually attractive. and all the
signs point to a big attendance and a great
shoot.
Colonel Parmelee has a large supply Of
live birds on hand, and one set of traps de-
voted exclusively to this class of
shooting and two sets of inanimate
targets VIII be kept running con-
stantly, so there will be no waits for those
anxious to test their skill with the hammer
less The tournament continues until Satur-
day inclusive, and all the roads centering
here have made a schedule of rates of one
and one-third fare for the round trip. The
various competitions will begin promptly at
9 o'clock each morning and the modern cleo
trio pull will be used on all the traps.

LINCOLN, June 12.-(Special Telegram.)-
In the middle Of the sixth today's game be-
tween Omaha and Lincoln was called on
account Of rain. In their half Lincoln had
added five runs to her total score Of ten
previously, and Miles lay on the ground by
second painfully injured by a sprained ankle
In the second inning a hot ball from Darby
had glanced from the right side of Spaer's
head and laid that enterprising and ambitious
back stop prone on the ground by the home
plate. Altogether this piece of a game was
punctuated with mishaps and hard luck
Omaha started the run getting in the FIRST
just after giving Lincoln goose egg, and
piled up four scores before Pace was caught
out on second by Buckerino Ebrght. But
Lincoln made it horse and horse in the
second, the game stood four and, while every
body yelled but Kid Speer, who had been
knocked down, given his base, and reached
home wounded, but safe. Then Hutch's men
got two more runs on good stick work and
Kimmerers errors and the game stood six
to four amid a profound silence on the
bleachers. Kennedy smashed out a two-bag-
ger and scored in the third, and Pete Lohman
rolled in on a home run that did not go over
the fence. But the Lincoln fans cracked
large holes in the welkn in the fourth be-
cause her pets carried five runs over the
home plate on Hutch's error and some wild
pitching by Darby. Omaha went out one,
two, three, and in the fifth Lincoln did the
same although Van Buren, got his base on
balls. Hutch flew out to Cole, O'Brien to
Buck and Lehman rolled an easy one to Little
Holly, who chucked it to Sullivan. And the
rain was welcome to the home team, who
saw the game was safe. Score:

NEW HAVEN, Conn. June 12.-Thc news
of Harvard's agreeing to arrange contests
in foot ball. base ball and rowing contests
with Cornell occasoned much surprise in
New Haven. Yale's leading athletic lights
are in doubt as to whether or not this is a
torerunner of the severance Of relations
between the Blue and Crimson. Many stu

Nearly every one who heard the news
thought it must have some bearing on Har-
wards athletic relations with Yale, and
possibly indicated that all dealings with

The athletic committeeman would not COM

ROMEO AND JULIEr JUST FOR FUN

From the tragic story Of "Romeo and Ju-

the audience at Boyd's said last night, "even
though my withers be unstrung from con-
slant shaking Of the sides, I like this bur
lesqing business, though 1t does Willy of
Avon most injustice" and the utterance
would have met with generous recognition
from the audience could they have heard the
old English twang given as criticism OF the
play. -...
Romeo and Juliet" with two balconies and
a love-lorn apothecary making violent love
to the nurse, with rollicking college songs and
choruses, give some faint idea of this tray
esty upon the drama which for centuries
has been in the repertoire of tragedan and

characters in the immortal tragedy are easily

given last evening, has caught the burlesque

the performances was excellent in spots

NOTHING NOW BUT TO WAIT
Agricultural Commission Ready to Wind
I'm Its Office Business.


What was expected to be the final meeting
OF the Omaha Agricultural commission was
called at the mayors Office yesterday after
noon. After waiting until 5 o'clock for a
quorum an adjournment was taken until 4
o'clock today. The meeting is for the pur-
pose of auditing the accounts and winding
up the business of the organization. The
office work is now finished and nothing re-
mains but to wait for the crops to grow. The
commission has nearly 400 acres of garden
spots under cultivation and 571 persons have
received either land or seeds. This is only
373 less than in Detroit where the same eX-
pertinent was tried last year with such signal
success. The gardens are all progressing
finely and no trouble has been experienced
with any of the people who have profted
by the work Of the commission. 1t Is the
general opinion of the members that the
experiment has been a gratifying success
and that the potatoes and other truck that
will be harvested from the garden spots will
materially aid several families in tiding over
the next winter.
