Gated doubtiess most or them VIII have a
try at It.
Owing to the fact that the Grand Ameri-
can handicap at live birds, Formerly an an
Bual event. has been abolished. 1t Is con-
identity expected that the Interest which
will be taken In the inanimate target tour
nament will be unprecedented. Shooters
from all parts Of this country and even
from Canada will doubtless participate.
when the Grand American handicap at live
birds wss held at Kansas Cityra year ago
the number Of entries exceeded all ex-
pectations. and local shooters believe that
the inanimate target event will draw as
many II not more entries. There were in
all 400 contestants in the Grand American
handicap at live birds.
Entries for the big shoot will close about
April 1. The FIRST two days Of the shoot
Will be taken up with ~sweepstake events
at about thirty-hve birds each. while the
third day will be reserved for the main
event, the Grand American handicap. The
big event will be at 100 birds. Miscel-
~lsneous target events will be held on the
fourth day. over $1,000 in added money
will be distributed among the winners In
the different events and a number OF
trophies will be distributed besides. The
emblem which will go to the winner OF
the Grand American handicap will prob
ably be a cup Of some kind.

matlzed as the mental progress in any
graded school. There are three distinct
classes, the elementary, the intermediate
and the advanced, and a man is advanced
from one 20 the other on the same prin-
oiple as in the grammar schools. He must
stay In each one till he can pass a regular
examination that will take him up a peg.
In this connection Mr.. Pentland makes
great use Of the scoring system. Each
mans physical ability is gagged accurately
by a standard scale Of measurement, and
is depicted on paper in plain figures. when
these figures are high enough to show that
the pupil has grown out Of his class he lie
advanced, but not till then.
All OF this has tended to lend greater
zest than ever to the gymnasium work at
she association, and competition IL keener
as a. consequence. Regular certificates OF
competency are issued, and when these
read into the higher grades they are coveted
extremely. The men who have run through
the entire course are the envied ones of all.
and those in the lower classes strive hard
TO perfect themselves to that degree.
Examinations for advancement are so ex-
tensive and varied that they insure a pro-
iciencY in practically all the familiar fea-.
lures of gymnasium work. There are
twenty-four events on the regular accred-
tied list, and, to attain the different stand
ings that determine a competitors grade
and position, one must attain a certain
rank in a certain number Of these trials.
Meanwhile, the gymnasium is very popu-
lar. and Mr.. Pentland finds he has all he
can handle. The accommodations are al
ready stretched to the utmost limit. There
Is, in fact, hardly room to work in many
Of the classes, and not the space that might
be desired in any Of them. At present. the
director has thirty-hve classes going every
week, and this represents some 400 men
enrolled. In addition to those there are, of
course, any number doing gymnasium work
who are not enrolled In classes.

WILL BUILD 4 CURLING RINK
Omaha Club Decides to Have a New
Place to Play Next
Season.

The Omaha Curling club has decided to
erect a covered curling rink before another
winter rolls around. This decision was
reached at the meeting Of the association
held early last week. Every member is
strongly in favor of the project and ar
rangements have been made for the puF-
chase OF the material as soon as the site
can be secured. In the meantime every
member of the club is appointed a commit
tee Of one to find a location. The only
qualifications for this demanded are a
reasonable proximity TO the business eentrE
Of the city and to a street car line, '
With the site selected, the construction
Of the rink Will proceed at once. The plan
decided upon is to have the dimensions
hfty-hve yards by fifteen yards. This will
permit Of two curling Kinks. each nifty
yards by ave yards. The superstructure will
be OF wood, consisting OF a light roof and
side walls. The place will not be dug
out, but banked up around the sides. Not
more than three Inches OF water is needed
and provision will be made for flooding II
over slightly every day II necessary. This
Will give always a smooth surface as long
as the cold lasts. Such & winter as the
present one there could already have been
seven weeks of continuous curling in q
eoveSed rink. o..
It is calculated to raise the initiation fee
OF the club from 81 10 $40 when the rink
becomes a reality. Thus the affair will be
made easily self-supporting. II viii not

BIG SHOOT FOR KANSAS CITY
Grand American Handicap at Inani-

Down There.

It Is now definitely settled that the
Grand American handicap shoot at imam
innate targets will be held at Kansas City.
This agreement was reached last Wednes-
day by Elmer E.. shaner, secretary Of the
Interstate Shooting association, and Robert
Elliott, lessee OF the Blue River Shooting
park. r
The dates of this shoot will be April IA,
Is. 16 and II. and preliminary arrange
ments Will be at once begun. 1t will be
necessary to use eight sets Of traps to
accommodate the 300 entries or more that
are expected. The installing Of these
traps will in itself be a big task, and be-
sides that the club house will require over
hauling. A large list Of Omaha entries
will doubtless enter this shoot. There are
many devotees of the target in this city

LAST WEEK WITH THE BoWLERs
Sickness of Al KruE DisarrnnEes
the Schedule to Some
Extent.

On next Wednesday night at Lentz &
Williams alleys will come one of the warm
est bowling matches of the entire season.
The contestants will be the two leading
teams in the percentage column, the omahas
and the Gate Citys. Each will roll for
blood that night, the Gate Citys because it
affords them an easy opportunity to either
tie or very nearly approach the standing of
the omahas. and the leaders because they
can by winning a majority OF the games
still further increase their start over the
only team that is at present pushing them
for first place. So the members Of these
two teams will rub the snake oil into their
Joints with more than average care that
night, and there will be some tall rolling
done.

One delayed match last week caused a
little disappointment and d-isarrangement of
the schedule. On Thursday night AL Krug
of the Germans was sick and unable to play,
SO the game booked to occur between that
team and the Gate Citys was put off till
this week, when 1t will be played off at
some odd time. This leaves the Gate City
men with only thirty games to their credit,
while their leaders, the omahas, have thir-
ty-three. That leaves an uncertain element
in the race, as the Gate Citys now have six
games to play this week. Should they win
four of them, one from the Germans and
three from the ornahas, they viii be a tie
with the latter for first place. Should they
win three from the Germans and but one
from the Omahas the latter team will still
lead by two half games.

Misses Ethel and Nina Williams
Married.

From the columns of the Met
ropolis published at Jacksonville,
we learn of the marriage of
Misses Ethel and Nina Williams
who left here about two years
ago.
Tuesday evening, Feb. 10TH"
says the Metropolis, about nine
O'Clock a very quiet wedding
came off in the parlors of the
River View Hotel. The contract
ing parties were Mr.. Hugh L.
Gregory and Miss Nina NJ. Will
Jams and Mr.. Elwyn N. Moses
and Miss Ethel F. Williams. The
brides are sisters, and all the
parties are we'll known and high
ly respected young people of the
city. Rev. 7. Griffith performed
the double ceremony, using the
Methodist Church marriage SER
vice for the occasion. A few Sc
lect and intimate friends accom-
panied the couples, escorting
them to and from the hotel in
carriages. The many guests of
the hotel eujoved the occasion
and showered rice upon the de-
parting brides, who are sisters
of John II. Williams, first reader
of the Christian Science Church.
An enjoyable banquet was given
later at the Capital Cafe to the
wedding party"
The young ladies have man,
friends in Fitzgerald who wish
them happiness and prosperity.

The Council and the School Board.

For several years Fitzgerald
public schools have suffered be-
cause of friction between the city
council and the Board of Educa-
ton.
Under the city charter the
Board of Education has complete
control of the public schools of
the city at the same time the
funds are provided by the
city council, indeed the only
means of reaching the public
school fund is through the APP
preparation ordinance of the city
council. While this is true the
Board of Education has general
ly resented any interference or
suggestion by the city council.
The appropriation for the
schools in 1901 was $4,000 from
the citv and $1,000 from the
state. In 1902 the city appro.
priated $4,000 and 81, $50 was
appropriated from the state.
This year there was appropri-
ated $4,000 supplemented by
5000 proposed for repairs and
the states fund amounting to
about the same as last years
$3.50; butan effort to increase the
appropriation by the council
apparently succeeded two weeks
ago and an amend ment TO the
appropriation ordinance drawn BY
the clerk was read for the first
time increasing the appropriation
to 81, 200 which with the states
money would amount to IS, 500.
When the amendment was put on
its passage last Monday night a
motion was made to reduce the
amount--$250, that is make the
increase 81, GOO above the origi-
nal appropriation of $4,000. The
