STABBED
BY MYSTERIOUS
HAND AT NIGHT

Thomas Kelly, who resides at 147
Helen street. was walking home
through Hallett street, near Arctic
street, just after midnight this morn
ing, when he suddenly became aware
of the presence of another man very
close to him. He turned half way
around, having a presentiment he
says, that something was wrong, when
there flashed in the moonlight a
knife blade that descended upon his
face near the outer angle of his right
eye and cut its way down through
his cheek in a deep ugly wound His
assailant made another lunge, but
Kelly thrust his right arm up, caught
the blow near the elbow and the
blade lost itself in his clothing not
touching the flesh a second time
The next instant the man took to his
heels.
Kelly made his way home, band
aged up his wound the best he could,
and rolled about all night long try
ing to solve the mystery surrounding
his attack.
This morning he asked the detec-
tive bureau to help him out and he
turned over a pearl handled knife,
blood stained, with which the cuts
were made. His assailant dropped
the weapon after the second thrust.

Russian Lion Gets

For in Roller Match
Fails to Throw Seattle Wrestler Once
in Hour, Though Promised
Two Fails.

LINCOLN. Neb., Feb. 2-(Special Tele-
gram. )-When George Hackenschmidt guar
anteed TO throw DR. 3. F. Roller twice in
an hour he promised too much and failed
to secure even one fall within the allotted
time. The Russian Lion appeared to dis
advantage with Roller and was on the de-
fensive nearly as much as the Seattle doc
tor.
Roller broke Hachenschmidt's holds with
ease and finished apparently in better con-
dition than Hackenschmidt. Roller picked
Haokenschmidt up several times and threw
him TO the mat. but at no time had a
chance for a fall In the preliminaries
Bleeka won in two straight fall from Col
Inns.
Holden, an Omaha wrestler, appeared for
the first time before a Lincoln audience
and made a big hit with the crowd with
his clever work against Ernest, Hacken-
sebmidts trainer Ernest won two straight
falls.
The crowd was the largest ever in the
Lincoln opera house. Frank Gotch wrest-
les four Nebraska heavies on February Q.
Ernest, who was recently thrown by Gion,
the Nebraska champion. challenged Gion
for finish match with a side bet of $50
which the Aurora man accepted.

speedy InfieIder IL Traded by the
ST. Louis Browns to
PittsburR.

The release Of Red Corridor by The st.
Louis Americans to Pittsburg comes as a
surprise to Omaha fans and incidentally
puts Pa Rourke on the hunt for another in
fielder, Corridor was seen in Omaha as
shortstop for a part OF last season. but re-
turned to Hedges at st. Louis to finish
the season. However. Pa mas been expect
ing to get him back for use this season.
Corridor went to Pittsburg as part of
a trade Hedges has had on with the Pitts
burg management for some time and this
is why Omaha did not set him. 1t is re-
ported that Pittsburg paid $500 for the
inflelder, but that city may not use him
during the coming season at that.
Corridons usefulness on team was not
so much in his great fielding ability, but
in the fact that he was good batter, had
lots OF ginger and a was a good base run
ned. In livening up base ball team Cor
ridon will earn his salary.
Pa announced Thursday that he sent out
contracts on that day TO all his players and
that results should be heard from soon
He also let drop the information for Omaha
fans that although he couldn't let out who
they would be at present, he would have
nine pitchers on the list when he opened
the training season. There viii also bt
four catchers, the four regular -intielderi
and utility infielder and three regulars IL

DR.. MILLENER EXPLAINS HOW
SOUND FLOATS IN ETHER
wireless Telephony Subject of Talk
by Expert at KOuntEe Memo
rial Church.

Wireless telephones are no longer things
TO dream of, for. according to Frederick
II. Millener OF the Union Pacific railroad
who spoke Wednesday night upon wireless
communication at the Kountze Memorial
church, they are as practicable as any
Of the present day inventions. He ad-
mitted. however, that they could never
compete with the telephones now in use,
while depending upon coal made electricity.
He asserted that when, with the conserva-
ton of energy. the streams Of the country
were harnessed and cheap primary power
was to be had, that they would be In opera
ton everywhere. He then, in an elemen-
tary manner, explained something Of it's
working principle.
First DIR. Miliener told something OF the
operation of wireless telegraphy. with an
instrument before him he explained the
principle Of vibration. He said few vibra-
tions, say several thousand per second,
made a musical note, but that when many
thousands OF vibrations a second were
produced no sound resulted. but sent
powerful waves through the ether. In
struments tuned to the same vibration per
second receive these vibrations at points
far distant and thus is communication eff
fected. In the same way, he said, could
words be made to float upon these vlbra-
lions, just as a chip OF wood floats upon
water, all that Is necessary being instru-
ments to put the words upon the vibrations
and instruments to receive them.

Plans for assessment for the opening OF

that when he bought his property Thirty
sixth street was excepted and for that
reason he should not be assessed. His
point was well taken, according to the
board of equalization.
Protests from property owners along
Cass avenue. between Thirty-sixth street
and Thirty-eighth avenue asking that the
city stand one-third OF the grading OF this
strip, were placed az file.

Would Form Tri-C City

Enthusiasts of Three Cities in Hopes
Of Forming 0rganizatiOn-ouig-

The formation or Tri-City league Of
amateur teams in the three cities is one
OF the things that the enthusiasts OF that
class Of base ball are earnestly wishing
would come to pass. The making and
keeping up of such a league is very lard,
but 1t Is found possible and advisable in
many cities the size Of the three cities right
here on the Missouri. An effort TO form
such a league will probably. be made.
Frank Quigley, captain OF the storz
Triumphs last year and for years manager
and captain OF the Dietz organization, may
not be in Omaha next year, as he Is seri-
ously considering an offer from President
Carey of the Mink league to manage the
Nebraska City team next year. Quigley
has always been a most enthusiastic sup
porter OF amateur spofth in Omaha and
his loss would be felt greatly In both foot
ball and base ball. II he went to Me-
braska City he would probably play the
Outfield and act as utility catcher.
