Game at Fort Omaha.
There will be two lively jaunts at the
Fort Omaha base ball emporium this after
noon. The first meeting will be at 1880 D.
m. between the Longs and the Updike
millers. These teams are OF about the
same calibre and a rousing exhibition is
looked for. AS soon as this event has en-
tered the register, the Townsends and the
Farrell syrups will gallop out on the pas
ture and endeavor to do things to each
other. This will be their first hand shake
OF the season. Some time ago water drops
interfered with a tackle they had scheduled.
Last season all their duels were close
and exciting and although the sticky con-
gregation succeeded in getting the best
OF all their conflabs. nevertheless. the
Townsends were the dudes that made their
hair stand on end in every bout but today
the glnners are figuring on making their
old enemies bite the dust. Last Sunday

THE RIGHT TO DO WRONG.

Mayor Dahlman, Of Omaha, in a recent
after-dinncr speech. said of honesty:
"Our honesty is all right now, but, really
before our moral awakening a few years
ago. the honesty of some Of our great
mil!onaires was no better than Uncle
}osh's.
Uncle Josh worked for Lawyer Dal-
rymple. and he had worked for Lawyer
Dalrymples father and grandfather Very
old. very kind-hcartcd. very amable. Uncle
Josh had one incurable fault-kleptomania.
He stole everything he could lay his hands
en-.
Lawyer Darymp.cs stock of patience
ran out at last. and when Uncle Josh stole
an automobile horn his master decided TO
have him arrested, and let him serve
short term H. jail. Two or three weeks
IN Jail, Lawyer Dalrymple thought. was
The only cure for the old mans failing.
But Uncle Josh. when he heard OF tho
fate In store for him, pleaded hard lie
pleaded his old age, his long years Of
patient service, his industry, his fidelity;
and since these pleadings had truth in
them, Lawyer Dalrymple's heart was
touched. and he rclented
"'All right, Uncle Josh he said. wen
forgive and forget But two things
insist on. First, you must bring back the
automobile horn; second, you must sign a
paper never to steal again as long az you
live
"Cncle Josh hesitatcd. Then he said
reproaChfully:
'Mahs' Harry rs willin ter fotch back
de auto horn, but-but-now, look here
Mahs Harry, go cahn't speck me ter sign

influence on the count. II strengthened his
democratic convictions, and it IS highly
probable that it was the result Of his
American visit that upon his return to
Hungary he assumed the leadership Of the
most radical party-the Kossuth party.
There are many facts characteristic of
his democratic views. one is that he has
not accepted a single decoration or order,
despite the fact that he has already
achieved everything which a statesman In

other fact proving his democracy is that
