Lively Practice Match Between Members
of the Omaha & nh.

The game yesterday afternoon was be-
tween two teams chosen by President F.

The result was victory for Ford's aggre-
cation, and was due in no small measure to
the batting OF Messrs. Francis and Ford
Mr.. Francis q, besides being the highest
score of the day, was the outcome of some
free hitting. Mr.. Neale's bowling for the
winning side was one of the features of the
game.
For the losing side Messrs G. H.
Vaughan, +. II. Marshall and w. Vaughan
all batted well, while the first named gen
tleman was as effective as ever with the
ball.
The long stopping of Messrs. Kemp and

desired. Below are the scores in detail:

The Ringing Circus Not Like Any

bans street and University avenue
This is on the line of the Interurban
car and will be easily accessible to every
one. If there is one man in st. Paul
who has decided that "circuses are all
alike and that he is not going to this
one he ought to change his mind at
once, for his own good He never made
a greater mistake in his life, for this
great show has captured the plauditS
of every city of note it has visited in
this country, and, from the indorse-
mentS Which precede 1t, there can be
no doubt of its superior merit. Even
in Bridgeport, Conn, the home of the
Barnum show, they declared that moth
ing to equal it had ever been through
there. Unless all signs fail, the most
jaded amuSement-seeker will find in
this entertainment as many novelties
as his grandson, and the man who
thinks The has seen it all will have to
modify his opinion and take off bis hat
to these five managerial brothers who
have unqueStionably provided the cir
Gus of the century. Among the star
features in the geological department
is the only thoroughbred zebra that has
yet visited st. Paul. A number have
been sent to this country, but they have
fretted themselves to death in captiv-
ity and circuses have been exhibiting
the "quagga,' or mongrel zebra, for the
real article. The Ringlings have full

number of witnesses in the municipal

, to prove that Harry West was justi-
fed in attempting to shoot Louis Bat

all the witnesses were heard, however,
Judge Twohy imposed a sentence of
ninety days, the maximum allowed
by law for disorderly conduct.
- Mrs. Pearl Lyles added something
-tc the known facts in the case by her
testimony Some one had come to her
about o'c,ock in the afternoon and
told her that Battles was outside,
mounted on a horse and carrying a
shotgun. Mrs. Lyles went out and
met Battles, who told her he was
going to fill West full of Shots"
Later she saw Battles go for GROWER
of beer and on his way back he pulled
a knife or razor from his pants pocket,
opened it and placed it in his coat
pocket. When he got about opposite
Mrs. Lyles' window West appeared,
pulled out his gun and began firing.
Battles at once started for him with
the knife, the growler disappeared
from view and an officer gathered
in the men, as detailed in the Globe
at the time.

however, that Mankato had not gone
over that mark. He was satisfied
there were more people there. AS he
