LINCOLN. March 2-Cspecisl)-The
Omaha High school has blocked the plans
laid by the Nebraska athletic board for a
state high school basket ball tournament,
which was TO have been held IN Lincoln
during the latter part Of this month.
All arrangements for the games had been
made by Manager Eager, and eight schools
had agreed to enter teams. Lincoln high
had arranged It's schedule to enter the con-
tests. but, after all the preliminaries had
been made, the management of the Omaha
High school five refused to change its date
for a game with Lincoln, and thus de-
stroyed all hopes for a 1910 tournament.
The dates set Cor the tournament were
March Is aahd 10. Early dates would not
have permitted tho teams 10 get ready for
the games. so these later days were settled
upon. For March 10 Lincoln is scheduled
to meet the omaha high school quintet
IN Omaha, but at first II was thought the
Omaha management would agree to change
the date for this game. Lincoln was willing
10 make the change Omaha positively re-
fused TO make any change, and the Ne
braska promoters Of the games were forced
TO call off the meeting for this year.

the indoor meet at the Omaha Auditorium.
To hold the games later than this would
find many Of the teams not in training,
A as most of the athletes would be playing
base ball and training for the spring track
meets. r...
Manager Eager today notified all the
teams that had been entered of the failure
to get the consent Of the Omaha team and
announced the abandonment of the plans
for holding the games this winter. He
told all tho schools that a tournment would
r be held during the early part Of 1911.
1T was impossible to change the date
for the Lincoln game" said r. L. earns,
athletic director of the high school. Il
would have been glad to sec the state
basket ball tournament become a success
full event of the year, but we were posi-
lively unable To, make the change in dates
that Lincoln wanted. The only dates which
would have been possible under the change
in schedule would have been March Is
or 26. A debate with the Kansas City
Central High school is to be held on March
%. II was deemed inadvisable to hold u
basket ball game on the following day in
that it would nave worked to the detriment
of the debate"

Mr.. John Lindsey, the president of

For three Or four months" he says
the retail butchers have been making
practically no profit at all. Beef is ex-

is terribly high, and supplies are likely
to be shorter even than they are now.
Either we shall have to get the gov
eminent to allow Argentine cattle to
be landed here alive or prices will go
up enormously, and the butchers will
in many case be ruined. For a long
time they refrained from increasing
the price of beef, living on the profit
of cheap mutton. Now all meat is
dear, and supplies almost insigniti-
cant.

Paris, May 13.-Frenehmen are view

the increasing number of foreign ayia-

the Chalons military camp and nj. Hen
ry Farman took the first step on this
account to leave the camp of Maurme-
Ion for Eetampes. NJ Raymond, the
senator who interpellated the govern
ment on aviation matters a few DAYS
ago, has now come out with the charge
that the Chalons camp is being mono
polized by German officers His view
is perhaps exaggerated, but it is nev-
ertheless curious to note his state
ment in an interview. He said: 1T is
certain that Germany has two aero
static schools, one at Johannisthal.
and the other at Chalons. On the day
that Latham made his sensational
flight at Mourmelon. I went to lunch
at the inn and the waitress said to
me, Not at this table: this is reserv-
ed for the German officers" In fact
soon afterwards l saw two military
men of military bearing sit down at
the table and I learned that one was
an officer from Munich and that the
other belonged to a regiment of lancers
at Berlin. They had been getting les
sons in flying for several weeks, and
are now instructors at Johannisthal'
The senator further remarks that
Germany is taking every advantage of
the progress of aviation in France.

a private capacity, they received let
ters of encouragement from the EN-
peror.
M. Raymond is perhaps a little too
severe on the military authorities of
his own country, as they have on all
occasions been only too willing to en-
courage aviation generally. and have
not only placed the military camp OF
Chalons but also that of Issy les No
lineaux at the disposal of aviators
When Mr.. Wilbur bright came to
