dulged but four times in their favorite pas
time. Thanksgiving day was the nrst, then
early in December the second, while the
third and fourth occasions were Christmas
and New Years days. 1t had been planned
to make the New Years event a big affair,
with the TrOup Point medal and Forgan's
silver cup as trophies. The Ice was too bad
to allow of any such championship con-
tests, however, and the only curling done
that day was a match between Kinks skipped
by r. 8. Melvin and James c. Lindsay.
After q very close game Melvin won by 4
points.
Most OF the devotees Of the game seem
very enthusiastic about the covered rink
proposition. One of the biggest advantages
next to that Of good Ice all the time is that
It will make possible curling at night. With
good lighting the game is easily handled
after dark, and is as pleasant sport as
skating by moonlight. This will give men
more time for the game, as in this busy
country people do not have time enough in
daylight. In discussing this point Mr..
Lindsay said:
"Of course, one would never expect to
see any great proficiency at curling here.
People do not have time enough. Here men
work until 8 o'clock every day and till 6
on Saturdays. In Scotland as soon as curl
ing begins no man will work after 2 o'clock.
I know an old cobbler whom l have seen
leave his shop while in the midst Of cob
bling a pair OF shoes for which a customer
was waiting barefooted. Nor would he re-
turn and complete the Job till darkness
stopped his game with the "stanes." In
Canada, too, more time is devoted to curl
ing, and in some eastern cities in this coun-
try, but not out here"

SQUASH CLUB is STILL ACTIVE
Young Men who Began the sport
Keep IL Up with Great
Vim.

Last winter a score or more Of the young
men OF the upper ten organized a Squash
club in Omaha, secured quarters, equip
ment, conveniences and then played the
game with persistence all during the cold
season. This winter finds the club expert
encing even more Of a revival than the
most ~sanguine expected. A few short
months at this fascinating indoor game
was suficient to win permanent devotees
among those inclined to athletics Of the
more strenuous sort, and as a consequence
the life OF the sport here seems now as
sured.
The same quarters have been retained. on
the second floor OF the building at 10s South
Fourteenth street, but they have been
further improved. The building of a new
back wall, or face, is an important feature,
giving a more solid playing front. The
visitors gallery has also been altered and
enlarged. so that considerable gatherings
can now be accommodated at contests,
perched up high above the arena out Of
harms way. In membership there has been
some change, which on the limited roll
makes quite a difference. Some Of the
charter members have dropped out. The
purpose OF the club is not to let it's mem
bership exceed twenty-five men. 50 there is
no dificulty in keeping the lists full.
Two rising players are found among the
new recruits. They are w. T. Burns and
Spike" Kennedy. Each has caught the
nang OF the play remarkably well in the
short time since the season began, and
either bids fair to give the older cracks
a run for honors before the winter closes.

adhered to again this season. One was

CURRIERS' MAY BUILD A RINK
Omaha Followers of the ROaFin' Game
to Have Permanent
Tee.

A curling rink is planned for Omaha.
The Omaha Curling club contempIates
building such a place and will hold a meet
ing Monday night at 1908 Howard street
to take immediate steps in the matter II its
feasibility becomes apparent at that time.
The rink will be built on some location
close In down town, so that it will be
within easy reach Of the business men. The
dimensions of the rink will require a hous-
ing fully 165 feet long and forty feet wide.
Accommodations for equipment and playing
tools and clothes would be arranged within.
The Curling club has at present thirty
members, all actively interested in the
sport. The weather conditions here have
always mad the matter Of good ice very
uncertain, even with the coolest tempera-
ture prevailing. The rink would obviate all
this, Offering a perfect sheet Of ice as long
as the cold lasted. II would also bring
the game within easy distance, so that curl
ers could indulge every day instead Of once
a week or fortnight. They would. further
more, be protected from the weather, which
is no small item.
Not much difhculty is anticipated in max
ing the necessary arrangements TO defray
the expenses Of constructing the rink house.
II is planned to nav two Kinks, each OF
which must be FIVE yards by nifty. The
place would be much on the same plan as a
bowling alley, with ice in place of polished
floors.
The Curling club anticipates taking IN
many new members II the rink is con-
strueted. as athletieally inclined men arS
certain to become interested in the game
when indulgence is made so easy and pleas
urable. At Minneapolis and 81. Paul curl

BASE BALL in THE WINTER TIME
Peace Conference Falls Through Be-
cause the National Fails
to Make Good.

It's all of.
Back to the woods for the gentle dove
OF peace, and on with the merry war OF
the magnates. Ban Johnson says there
will be no conference at Cincinnati tomor-
row and no further negotiations for peace
from his end Of the fight. He insisted
that the National conferees come to the
meeting clothed with full power to act.
This was desired by President Hermann
of the Cincinnati team. who is chairman
OF the National committee, but the other
magnates couldn't see IT that way. So
Mr.. johnson very naturally declines to
go into a conference which can result In
nothing. This outcome will be learned with
regret by every lover OF the game. All
had ooked forward to Cincinnati with fond
hopes Of peace, and the prospect was most
encouraging. While the American league
had named Mr.. johnson as a committee Of
one with full power to act, he had asked
to come with him Messrs. Comiskey Of
Chicago, Somers of Cleveland and Killlea
Of Boston. making a committee of four Of
the brainiest men in base ball today. For
the National league the committee was
made up of Messrs. Hermann of Gin
cinnati, Hart Of Chicago and Robson Of
st. Louis, three men in whom the base
ball world has confidence. It Is undoubt-
eddy due to the influence Of the Brush
Billings Rogers faction that the meeting
has failed. Just what these men can hope
to gain by a continuation OF the fight 10
not easily seen. In Boston and Philadel-
phia the American has the National
skinned forty ways, and just as sure as
the American starts in at New York the
Brush Freedman combination will be put
to the bad. From a business standpoint
It looks as II the National had made an
other Of the plumbers that has marked itI
every step In dealing with the American
league. Ordinarily, when people can not
be reached in any other way, they can be
reached through the pocketbook, but in
this case It is different. The National
league purse has become iatter and fatter
each year since the war started, and still
the magnates refuse to make any move
that will check the drain. In the mean
time, public sympathy is with the Ameri-
can.

some Final Recommendations.
The commission recommends that a pro-
vision be made for the operation of a snag-
boat on the river, similar to the provisions
made for other rivers, not to exceed the
sum OF S85, 900 per year, and in addition
says
And the commission desires to state that
It makes no recommendation for any ap-
preparation whatever other than for the
operation of snagboat, unless II can be
made in a manner to permit of its applica-
ton to a thorough systematic Improve
ment of the river. While II the systematic
work referred to can be taken up It would
recommend the appropriation of 100000
a year for the work between Jefferson city
and the mouth Of the river until tth hat on Is
to 50 $780, 600, leaving the question of the de-
~velopment OF the river above Jefferson City
to future consideration.
Expenditures on All work.
