That is briefly the life of our late be
loved Senator from Nebraska as the com
piler wrote it.
But that was written while the Senator
was yet alive and !Smopg us. Now it does
not satisfy us. We waaid know more of
him. We would go Into detail; follow his
life more closely and from it draw inspira-
ton and hope.
When that was written We did not need
more, we did not want norf; for he was
himself 10 all who kne@ hifn-the revela-
ton Of his own life and character most
reliable and instructive and impressive.
His life, like a book could not be pub
lished until the last chapter was written,
for it was growing better and broader and
more beautiful all The while. But he has
gone from among US The deeds of his
life are now history and what may be said
Of him will need no revision for subsequent
data
Longing 10 Know Hore-
But that is not sufficient now. 1t does
not satisfy us. There is a longing TO
know more of him. We want 10 know not
merely where he was born and when, but
what made him Senator, All, more yet
than that. we not only would know what
made him Senator Hayward, but what
made him the great7hearted. noble-mind-
ed. and beloved Judge Hayward. as we
knew him so long. These latter traits
made him Senator The office added; moth
ing 10 his parts nor. indeed. TO the al
lection of his constituents. The office was
but the expression OF that affection.
Those of us who knew Senator Hay

COLUMBIA BOWLERS WIN.
Good Scores Rolled Up Against the Y.
A


The Columbia Bowling Club met and de-
feated in two of three games the bowlers
of the Young Mems Christian Association
last night. The battle was fought on
grounds very familiar to the majority of
the Columbias, and they celebrated the oc-
casion by rolling a series of very good
scores The home players also played in
excellent form, making strings that have
in many previous occasions won for them.
The alleys were thronged with spectators,
many Columbia rooters being on hand, and
a large gathering of ladies made the occa-
sion attractive by their presence.
Unusually steady work characterized the
work of both teams. On both sides four
of the players averaged closely together
McNish for Columbia and Rose for the as
ISOLATION doing the only poor work of the
match, and each of these had one good
score to his credit. George Stitt showed
in a continuation of his old form, and it
seems likely that the hoodoo which fol-
lowed him in the earlier games this season
has permanently left him. DR.. Kicker also
bowled his customary good string, and
proved his claim to his title Of ''old reli-
able While Rodrick missed several easy
spares in the last game, work that cost
him thirty pins, he nearly maintained the
average which holds him at the top of the
individual players Of the league. For the
association, Doyle and Bum did great
work, and contributed largely to the good
totals of the home team.
Better spare work on the part of the
visitors brought victory to them in the
opening game. They secured a good lead
at the beginning of the game, having but
few breaks in the early frames. By the
end of the eighth the association had
drawn up to their opponents, but a great
run by the Columbias in the two closing
innings, including ninety-five pins in the
tenth, brought victory. The score follows:

From the New York Herald.


Here is the story of a Transyaal spy that
well Illustrates the shrewdness and peril
nacity which have made the Boer such a
tactful and able enemy in the present war.
1t was just before the erection of the Jo-
hannesburg forts. The spy was ordered to
report on the defenses of Chatham.
While employed In collecting materials he
came upon a certain secret subterranean
passage connecting Fort Pitt with-some-
where. He tried hard to find out where
that somewhere might be- but without
avail Rumor said 1t was Fort Clarence
But Fort Clarence was then-and is now,
for that matter-used as q provost prison,
and access to its interior was strictly pro-
bbited.
One way of getting within the walls there
vas. and the spy took it, He committed q
somewhat serious offense against military
discipline, for which he was reduced to the

McGOVERN-DIXON FIGHT,
Two Great Featherweishts Will Face
Each Other Tonight.

George Dixon and Terry McGovern will
fight for the feather-weight championship
tonight, and those who have decided to take
in the contest will undoubtedly witness the
greatest battle between little fighting men
in the history of the prize ring.
The officials of the Broadway Athletic
Club, New York, where Dixon and Meow
ern are to fight. have made arrangements
for the accommodation of an immense
crowd, and the indications are that the at
tendance will be the largest that has ever
witnessed feather weight contest.
While the fight is generally referred to
as a championship battle, the strict OBJ
servance of prize-ring law rules otherwise.
A championship fight must be to a finish.
but that a finish will be reached before the
stipulated number of rounds are fought to-
night seems to be the opinion of the know
ing ones who follow closely matters pugi-
listic. Is
No one acquainted with the fighting abll-
tiles of the little gloved warriors will admit
that Dixon and McGovern will fight for an
heur and fifteen minutes without one or
the other being knocked out.
The contest Is limited to twenty-five
rounds. and the articles of agreement call for
both to weigh in at AIS pounds at } o'clock
this afternoon. Both fighters let up in their
training yesterday. They will rest until it
ID time to weigh IN, and then until 1t is
time 10 enter tneA Ting. Although Dlk0n
has wonderful record as pugilist, and
has trained faithfully for the last several
weeks. and is said to be in fine condition,
he still holds second place in the betting,
with odds of to offered against him.
The odds offered on McGovern are caused
by his wonderful victories during the past
year. He has knocked out many men in
both the bantam and feather-weight classes
in short order, and he Is nearly ten years
younger than the great colored lad. He is
a whirlwind fighter, and most sporting men
seem to think that Dixon has gone back
and will be unable to avoid his rushes.
The odds in New York may be . to in
McGovern's favor, but in this city betting
men will find 1t hard matter to get better
figures than 100 to so or 90 should they de.
sire to back Dixon. Dixon money went
begging yesterday at the New York odds of
2 to !, and even those who favor McGoyern
were willing to take chance on Dixon If
the quoted odds hold good. Local sporting
men incline to the opinion that the odds are
false, especially after the Mccoy Maher
fiasco. when the betting turned completely
around by the time the two fighters faced
each other in the ring. Many of the local
admirers of McGovern and Dixon left for
New York last night under the belief that
the contest will be worth journeying miles
to see.
