Thu greatest interest at Bellevue centers
in the base ball team n the track team
has suffered somewhat at the hands Of II.
The two fields are separated and II has
been impossible for Athletic Director Pipel
to coach both branches at once and he has
spent the greater portion of his time in
the development of his base ball squad.
Every effort was bent to the securing OF
a list of good games so as to arouse student
enthusiasm and success was theirs. The
schedule was made out and included sew
eral OF the fastest OF the minor college
and semi-professional teams in their sec
ton OF the country. They played a game
each with the Omaha High school,, Fort
Crook. Cotner and the Omaha league team
and took the first two OF them. The last

grown among them OF spending Saturday
night in the club house and sailing all day
Sunday, beginning with the first gray light
Of the morning. Already they are begin
ming to flock to the lake on Saturday after
Moons and sailing all OF the early evening
and Sunday. The arrangements of the
club house have been somewhat changed, so
that all OF the members that care to stay
over the night can be cared for without
any discomfort to them. Last year little
preparation had been made for the all-night
members and they had TO rough It IN
true old-fashioned style. but now there Is
plenty OF room and comfortable beds for
all Of them in the old locker rooms. While
none Of them would ever own 20 the fact
that a soft. clean bed at home had more
charms for them than the rougher fare Of
the club house, It is more thar probable
that those that do not stay on Saturday
nights will be far less than last year.

TIL
YACHTING DAYS AT MANAWA
Men who Sail BOats Are Having
Delightful Times on
the Lake.

There has been little doing at Manawa
among the yachtsmen during the last few
DAYS beyond the rigging OF boats for the
sailing OF the hereafter. Most of the old
boats are just about in shape to take to
the water and feel the breezes, and most
OF them will be out skimming over the
surface today.
The new Stevens boat is fully rugged
and a it, first spin on the lake Saturday.
II bears up we'll under the wind and gives
good promise of being all that has been
expected OF IL. While all of the confidence
and hope of the club Is placed in the
Oshkosh boat. there is a general feeling
amtng the members OF the club that a
great deal Of good is going to come to the
club out Of the having OF this boat on the
lake.

Enthusiastic In It's

All interest at the High school is centered
In base ball and the student body is all
sgog with excitement over the prospects
for the best season in several years With
a team Of which half is new material a
very excellent showing has been made so
far and with the schedule as made out
there are going to be things doing before

circle, cycling their conquerer. They had
counted on the lack of skill in the minority.
They had supposed that Vest was too Ill
to make the fight. And until he made that
fight, arraigned them at the bar OF public
opinion, calmly showed them that II they
persisted they would not save 1.-The in
terests," but would destroy them and i'm
peril the whole protection system, they
had not realized the danger of their own
position. Indeed, 1t was not dangerous
until Senator Vest made 1t so. For there
never is a real issue until some man. some
leader with the heart to feel an issue and
the mind to plan 1t and the eloquence to
state it, rises and points it out and draws
the lines of battle.

BELIEVES TRACK TEAM BUSY
Young C~ollegtans Show Much Interest
I'm the Outdoor Sporting
Events.

Down at Bellevue the collegians are
working hard every day to get into form
for the work that is laid out for the track
team this month. Track work is very
young at Bellevue and material somewhat
scarce. but the boys are undaunted and are
working against terrific odds and now have
more than a semblance of a track team.
The team as 1t is constituted at present is
unevenly balanced, the sprints, the high
jump and the weights being the strong
points for the team. 1t is dihlcult with but
ninety men to gather together enough to
make any considerable showing against the
other Nebraska colleges. but what hard
work and training will perform they prom
Use to do, and II will not be an easy
victory for Doane when the two colleges
meet on the track at Crete on May 16. In
this meet the college will enter men in
all of the regular track events although
1t will strain the resources of the school
somewhat. On Decoration day they will
also enter men in the state Intercollegiate
meet at Crete. This time II is doubtful
II the team will compete in all events, as
there are not sufficient men in the team to
do all that would be required OF them and
there would be little likelihood of any Of
the honors in some OF the events falling
to Bellevue.

Gentlemen Il suffered with Eczema on the
hands and face for over a year. It was not only
annoying and painful, but very unsightly, and l
disliked to go out in the streets. 1 tried at least a
dozen soaps and salves, and became very much
discouraged, until 1 read in the papers of the
cures performed through the use of s. s.. s., and
determined to give it a months trial at least. I
am pleased to state that 1 soon noticed a slight
improvement, sufficient to decide me to keep it
up. After the use of six bottles my skin was as
soft and smooth as an infants. This was a year
ago, and I have mover had any trouble since.

Choosing the wiser Course.

Aldrlch thought It over. He chose the
wiser course-to sacrifice the one Inter
est" for the salvation OF the many, to re-
move at least the sting OF fury from the
growing popular demand for cutting 1.-THE
interests out Of the tariff. The duty was
taken off coal; the coal crowd, seeing what
would be the effect OF the object lesson
Of their prices forced down by foreign coal
actually in the market. made haste to put
down the price before importation could
begin. But they deceived no one but them
selves. The country knew why the price
OF coal suddenly went tumbling down until
It had become comparatively cheap
It was the most impressive possible OBJ
ject lesson in the power of one man, no
matter who or what or how many or how
much opposes, when that man is armed
cap-a-pie in justice, and knows when and
where and how to strike. II Vest in the
very cluches OF death could thus snatch
victory from such organized and seemingly
impregnable might, who that is right need
ever despair?
The real measure Of that victory has not
yet been taken. 1t was, in fact, a victory
in which Vest sheathed his sword in the
very heart OF his ancient foe, tariff extor-
ton. For never before had he or any other
opponent Of 1.-The interests" wrenched from
them-from Aldrich himself-the admission
that a tariff schedule can foster a mo-
nopoly, and that the way to strike at mo-
nopoly is to repeal it's protecting duty.
Senator Vest will never be heard in the
senate again. When he had completed that
victory he let his attendant bear him away
to the bed from which he had risen to make
one more fight. his last. He belongs in
that diminishing group Of what may be
called the senators OF the old republic. r.
may come again, but It is not now. Senator
Vest has never cared for money, and he has
little OF IT. But that does not disturb him.
Between the lines Of that biography one
reads the story Of = life Of the old-fash-
toned type. Nowadays a brain like his
would not be permitted to grow and bear
fruit in surroundings of such simplicity and
auietness. And now he has passed from the
public stage forever. His record In the
senate is: A great public service at the
outset. Peaks OF public service through
out, each peak rising not from a dark val
ley, but from the open. level plain. The
highest peak at the last.

The regatta committee has not made any
permanent arrangements for the racing
during the season. but It will meet within
a day or two and make all of the arrange
ments, including the addition of several
cups TO the trophy list. The opening race
will be on Decoration day. according to
custom, of course. and then there will un-
doubtedly be the bi-weekly races instead
Of the weekly ones as last summer Be
sides this. Sundays will find the yachts
pulling OF several races just for the fun
of the thing.

The High school has been hampered
somewhat by lack of a good field to prac-
tice on, but the boys have spent the after
moons in rain and shine in practicing faith
fully and the team has gotten into good
shape, as was evidenced by the showing
made against Lemars, Friday. The pitchers
for the team are both old men. Greenleaf
having pitched last year and Lowell has
pitched a couple Of years on the team. In
Fridays game Greenleaf put up a remark
able display Of pitching talent. letting down
the Iowa boys with but three hits. Despite
his youth and inexperience he plays a cool,
heady game and is always there at critical
moments. His strong points are his speed
and control. While he does not bend them
as well as Lowell, who has less speed.
Captain Robertson is holding down the
initial bag for his fourth year and his loss
will be felt severely by the team another
year. In the rest Of the inheld there are
Kennard. Yoder and Bronze. Kennard is
an old man and has done good work at
third for the team in the years gone by.
Yoder and Bronze are both underclassmen
and are serving their first year on the team
and quite acceptably. Brome's game espe-
cially is above the average for a new man.
Yoder is doing excellent work at the bat
as we'll as in the mi at short. AS 1t
is his first year on the team he will prove
a valuable man for the team in the next
three years. as his experience grows. In
the gardens there is Cherrington, Sobotker
and Singleton. Cherrington is the only one
Of the three that has had any previous ex-
p~erience on the team. but the other two
men are playing a game almost as good as
his and they promise to be coming men
on next years team. besides filling their
places this year quite acceptably,
One peculiar thing about the High school
team this year is it's batting. The team as
a whole is batting exceedingly hard for a
student team. This is usually the weak
point of all amateur teams. but the aggre-
CATION on the mill all seem to be natural
born hitters and they will win most of
their games this year by hitting the ball
hard and often.
While the schedule for the season has
been somewhat ~disarranged and may be
added to. II is now a very good one and
will give the team ample opportunity to
distinguish itself. The schedule is: Lin
coin High school. at Lincoln. May 16; Coun-
ell Bluffs High school, at Omaha. May q;
Lincoln, at Omaha. May 80; Tabor college.
at Tabor, Ia. June 6. The home games
will be played on Creighton field.

In Alec Cooper and Cornwall the hopes
of Bellevue are chiefly centered, as the W
OF them are the best that they have and
both are all around men. Cooper runs in
the quarter and throws the weights and is
capable OF competing in several other OF
the events IL necessary. Last fall he played
tackle on the foot ball team. Cornwall, who
is an Omaha boy, is a 1OO-yard man and
the pole vault. besides which he can be re-
lied upon to help out in the high jump
and the 22O-yard dash. Pope is the regular
man at the high jump and has a record Of
five feet five inches, and is likely to better
that mark before the season is over.
Nichols is slated for the hurdles and is a
good man for a beginner in his line. In
Beth, Darling and Wood the college has
three freshmen who are displaying great
qualities as track men and they will prob
ably represent the school this year quite
we'll. Beth does the short sprints, as does
also Darling. while Wood is In on the high
jump.

Omaha daily bee., 1903-05-10

On Wednesday the women had their first
trial on the links and now, there is to
be a second handicap for the men on next
Saturday. so It may we'll be hoped that the
game is really started on It's way to another
year of favor at the Country club.
Omaha daily bee., 1903-05-10

While the afternoons showing on the
links was not remarkable in the least II

first match of the year and because It
brought out again a number of the players
of last season upon whom the club has
come to depend for its laurels. r. r.

made a net score of 81. which was better
than the gross score of any other player,
and so set for himself a mark in the very
beginning. Then, too. there was Gilbert
Hitchcock. w. d. Bancker n Fred Ham
ilton in the match. as we'll as several
others of the older ones at the game. and,
all in all, 1t was a most auspicious begin
ming for the year when one considers the
day and its accompanying weather.

GOLF is ON THE BOOM AGAIN
Opening Of Country Club Links Gives
the Spring Impetus to
the Game.

With the opening of the Country club a
week ago yesterday golf took a decided
leap into favor at the club. and during the
week just gone by the bright, sunny days
have found the links dotted over with
players clad in the brightness OF golhng
paraphernalia and diligently practicing for
the campaign of the summer months. The
day was anything but pleasant for the
opening of a country club, but the clan
gathered. u%ndaunted by mere unworthi-
ness of weather. and watched the handicap

evening sought the solace of the house
with its CHEEKY comfort and danced the
social side into favor and newborn life.
