siding officer for several years. has
disposed of his business and will not

In the Tuesday morning session In
Bamlet hall resolution was adopted
directing the incoming executive board
OF the association TO work out plan
for mutual fire insurance. This pro-
Ject has been under consideration for
several years, but II was necessary 10

law might be lived up to. George
Bodey. OF Fremont. who has been the
most enthusiastic advocate OF mutual
Insurance. read paper on the sub
Ject In Tuesday mornings session.
K. d. Mowers. former president OF
the association, read a paper OH or

advantages In the shoe trade, partlcu-

the dealers OF that city, who have
united TO purchase many OF their sup
plies In common, also adopting UNI
form closing hour and exchanging
goods occasionally.
The sentiment expressed In the con
vention Is that the early closing move
ment should be spread through tho
state, and the association will make
this a feature OF It's work hereafter.
In Monday afternoons session. the
principal trade paper was read by ..
ID. Allen, proprietor of the Economy
store, who discussed the question,
Have we too many styles?" He re-
viewed the history OF the ready-made
shoe industry back TO the time when
there were but two styles OF womens
shoes, and then traced the growth CT
the tendency to luxury In footwear.
which results In multiplicity or
styles, materials and makes. Rivalry
between women as To footwear and
the feminine desire to enjoy the
latest modes. contributed TO the profit
of the shoe dealer. Allen stated. but he
sounded a warning note in calling the
attention of his fellow retailers To
the danger they must run In loading
their shelves with the myriad kinds
OF footwear now demanded.

Notes of the Game.
Spencer made another circus catch with
one rand which robbed Lower of a hit.
Swain made his error by throwing wild
to first in trying to catch Kensel leading
off too far.
Clark was also present with his little
willow and made four hits, one of which
was a triple.
Fisher made two singles, a double and
a triple in five times up. He also scored
three runs and stole a base.
Pa has Sanders and Kelley left fresh and
fine for Sioux City today. But then the
Sioux have been resting for three days.
Miller did not know how to act in right
field when those hard punches Of WEIGHS
and %Schipke's came s%cooting in his direc-
ton.
Hoggie can play most any old place. He
has PLAYED right and third and second in
the three games Pueblo has played in
Omaha.
Swift relieved Galgano Wednesday in the
last ming md lost the game and Bonno
replaced Swift in the last inning Thursday
and lost.
Schipke and Franck had troubies of their
own trying to stop some of those liners
which the heavy hitting Puebs insisted on
driving I'm that direction.
If Schipke and Eranck could have stopped
those drives in the fourth inning Pueblo
would not rave made a score off Lower
after he went into the game.

Cleveland won a game with a hit from
the mighty Lajoie.
With that ominous name, Galgano ought
to win every game.
We trust our Rourkes will be able to
maintain this gait on the road
Rube Waddel didn't do much to Boston
Just shut 'em out with four hits.
Thus far Mr.. McGraw has not had a
vast amount of need for Mr.. Merkle.
Swift was not swift enough TO head off
the vortex of that storm Wednesday
With pitchers working like Omaha's and
such a team behind them, any team that
wins will be entitled to.
Hollenbeck goes in to bat for Johns and
gets a hit, Their Kelley goes In to run for
Holly and scores. That's working II.
Manager Jones of Denver showed his
nerve anyway when he went in to pitch
that game at Des Moines. but he didn't
show much else.
Cincinnati has not made a bad showing
on this eastern trip. The Reds are fighting
hard this year, but not quite hard enough
thus far to be contenders.
After spending all that $500 for good
timber Denver still is not in the running,
not vet. Wichita won another game, but
then that was from Lincoln.
Omaha will tackle the two tough PROPOSE
tions Of the league in Des Moines and
Sioux City and the worst Of it Is they must
beard the lions in their own dens.
The Cubs certainly nave the least re-
spect for greatness OF any bunch OF play
ers. They go right along winning just as
II there wasn't such a person as John
Killing.
Lincoln probably would have been better
off IL Il got rid of that fellow Bonno long
Ego. He's about as worthless a PROPOSE
ton as there is in the league. for the sim
pie reason he can't govern himself.
While Tom jenkins has thrown Gotch
twice, Il was before Gotch was Gotch.
Tom jenkins will have as much chance
against Gotch at Des Moines, June 70. as
any the rest of them would have. He's
been a down-snd-outer for many years. Ii
will be recalled that Hack made a foot ball
OF him a year before Gotch humbled the
Russian Lion.
II DIT. Roller finally goes on the mat in
Omaha with Jess Westergaard he will get
thrown or have the worst tug-of-war. a
white man ever had. 1t is the popular be-
lief that either Burns OF Beell can throw
Roller any day In the year under IA. cir
cumstances and that Westergaard, II he
cannot do II now, will be able to in a little
while. Chances are he can do II now.
