Omaha Franchise

Omaha Franchise.
r. E. Schuman, of Chicago, known there
as the partner of "Bill'' Skakel in the COM
mission business and NJ j. O'Brien. of the
same city, are the reputed purchasers of the
Omaha franchise in the Western league The
only hitch in placing the franchise in Omaha
is over the question of Sunday ball. Those
who are prepared now to invest their money
in fitting up a ball ground and placing a
frst-elass team in the metropolis of Ne
braska want to feel assured before they go
ahead with their plans that they will not
be lnterfered with. 1t would be too expensive
to mt up two parks, as was at first suggested.
The idea was to play in the city limits on
week days and in different park outside the
limits on Sundays. 1t is thought no such
expedient will have to be resorted to. The
business men of the town favor the team
for the city and want it to succeed There
will, 1T is thought, be little opposition to Sun
day games 80
President Johnson's announcement that
Schuman had purchased the vacant Grand
Rapids franchise over two weeks ago will
be a matter of news to all but those on the
inside of the affairs of the league It was
thought the franchise question was far from
being settled. President Johnson has given
out that impression all along.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Jan. 29.-The fin
ish of the big seventy-two hour bicy-
Gle race was exciting and was a des-
rerate effort of the two leaders, Waller
and Elkes, to carry off the big end of
the purse. Elkes won by two yards,
having gone 1922 miles laps and 60
yards
Five minutes before the finish all of
the other riders left the track, giving
the two high men a clear way to fight
for the honor and money. EIkes was
in the lead, with Waller tapping his
wheel. A lively pace was set at once
Many times Waller put on all of his
power to pass his young opponent, but
each time Elkes' reserve force proved
the better, and amid the widest kind
of enthusiasm kept the lead to the

There Is very general misconcer>
tion of a well-known passage in the
Book of Genesis with regard to Gains
place of abode after lie had killed his
brother Abel The expression reads:
Cain went out from the presence of
the Lord and dwelt in the land OF
Nod" but learned commentators ex-
press the opinion that this should read.
"land, Nod" the proposition being I'M
necessary. The word Nod Is said to
mean a wanderer, and, If Biblical stu
dents are to be trusted In this matter,
the passage means Cain went out and
dwelt in the land a wanderer or exile
from his people. the presumption being
that he was obliged to keep away from
his immediate family for fear of their
vengeance, an additional precaution
for his safety being indicated by the
fact that a mark was placed upon him.
The question where Cain got his wife
is a silly Quibble which frequently
comes up In Sunday schools and other
places; silly from the fact that If the
Biblical account of the origin of tbs
human race from single pair I've re-
ceived as correct. there may have been
several thousand of human beings -

Cain.
