HOW THEY STAND.
Relative Positions of the Teams in
the Three Leagues.

The Western association starts out
season. With single exception every
game scheduled for the first week was
played, and the attendance in the towns
of the Southern circuit, where the con-
tests have occurred, has been uniform
iy good, in some eases very large. This
state of things is in marked contrast to
that of last year, when very large
proportion of the games of the first trip
of the Northern clubs were prevented
by rain: and those that were played Oc-
CURED under lowering skies, on moist
diamonds, and in the presence of but
few people. Present indications, too,
are good for sharp contest for suprem-
acy. AS made up the st. Paul and
Omaha teams appear to be the best in
the association, but they are not so
much stronger than Denver, Milwau-
kee and st. Joseph as to give them
Walk-away. 1t is obvious that Mime
apOlis is the weakest aggregation in the
list; but strength is going to be added
to the Flour City nine right along. and
it is probable that a couple of pitchers
like Baldwin and Burdick will be
wearing Mill City uniforms be-
fore the end Of another fortnight.
two men in the field, the club will be
putting up great game by the time of
its return home in the middle of May.
The st. Paul team is doing good work,
having won three of its five games so
far. In the three it won its fielding
was superb, there being but single
error charged against it, In the other
two, however, it seems to have got
somewhat ratified, as it piled up eleven
blunders. Tuckerman pitched his first
game Yesterday, and was pounded very
hard. His work will be watched with
great interest by st. Paul base ball
cranks, as they have always regarded
him as more lucky than phenomenal.
They all consider him the prince of
fielders i'll the diamond, but they have
always wondered why his twisters were
puzzle. The Omaha team ends the
week with a trifiing lead, which it is
likely to increase during the coming
week, as it plays constantly on its home
grounds. The record of the week is ap-
Dended:

OMAHA, Neb.. April 27.-The game
to-day was not good one in the strict
est sense of the word. 1t was married
by several exceptionally rank errors on
the part of the visitors. Clarke, for the
Omahas, pitched good, strong game.
Up to the eighth inning st. Paul had
made but two scratch hits off his deliv
cry. Tuckerman, OH the other hand,
was hit quite freely, and this, coupled
with the ragged support he received,
gave the game to Omaha. Walsh dis
tinguished himself by making five as
sists, one put ont and an error. The
latter was as rank a play as could be
imagined. Had the game been close
losing it. Walsh also displayed bad
Judgment in throwing to first on one OF
Two occasions when he should have
thrown to second for double. Cleve-
land retired in the third inning and
Cooney took his place at third. The
day was very poor one for game on
account of the strong wind which pre-
vailed and the clouds of dust that rolled
over the diamond, almost binding the
players. In the first inning neither side
scored. In the secondsAndrews. got
base on balls, and hit by Walsh sent
him to third. Nagle hit safe and An
drews and Walsh scored, Nagle being
retired at the plate after MesSitt had
flied out to Tredway. For the st. Pauls,
Carroll made safe hit to left,
STOLE SECOND AND THIRD,
and after Reilly's out to Caravan
scored on sacrifice by Werrick. The
third inning was blank for both clubs,
but the fourth was Waterloo for st.
Paul. MeSSitt was the first man at bat,
and scored on two-bagger. Canavan's
ont to first and an error by Pickett.
Clarke got first Oh the same error. and
scored on a two-bagger by Strauss.
Another score was made on Tredway's
huff of COoney'S fly. Crooks was hit
by the ball, and after Andrews had
brought in Cooney by single. scored
on an error by Reilly, who fumbled
Walsh's grounder. Then Messitt made
a home run and brought in Walsh.
Caravan made hit, stole second, and
on wild throw by Tuckerman, scored.
No more runs were made until the
seventh. when Omaha made one and
added two more in the eighth and
ninth. In the last half of the ninth
Reilly got his base for being hit, and
scored on Werrick'S two-bag ger. Far
mer hit safe to right past Andrews,
and after Halves had been hit by the
ball scored OH hit by Murphy. Halves
scored on an out by Pickett. If the st.
Pauls had done as good playing i'll the
fast part of the game as they did in
the last they might not have left the
field with Thursdays laurels secreted
under their coats. The score follows:

of letters from the California Athletic
Club asking him to come there, and he
means to accept at once. Wilson asserts
that he is confident of his ability to best
the Australian, and to show that he
means all he says, states that he wants
to fight for any amount up to $4,000 and
the gate receipts. He wants no part of
either Staked OF gate unless he wins the
fight, but if he wins he wants all the
money. His hacker is J. c. Murnane,
of Duluth. Speaking of Jackson, Will
son said:
''Of course. Jackson is good one. He
is tall and has an unusually long reach,
but he can't hit hard. He has whipped
number of men, not one of whom has
fought him right. They have all been
afraid of that long right arm and have
tried to keep away from him. In-fght-

SOME DERBY FLYERS.
Colts Bred in the Glorious Climate
California.

''At the State Fair grounds in Sacra
mento, Cal, are three strings that are
expected to figure prominently at the
Washington Park meeting, Chicago, and
afterwards at st. Paul at the summer
meeting under the auspices of the Twin
City Jockey club" SAID a prominent
horseman. This gentleman, formerly
an active merchant in st. Paul but now
taking it easy in his declining years
having for his only hobby most active
regard for the running horse,
has just returned from California. Con-
tinuing, he said: Theodore Winters,
Daniel j. McCarty-'White Hat Dam
they call him-and L. w. Shippee are
the owners. McCarty is the owner of G.
III. Todd, the American Derby winner
in 1887, and Theodore Winters is the
gentleman who paid S15,O01 for Norfolk
twenty-five years ago. Did you ever
hear how it came about?'' The
GLOBE man had haZy recol-
lection of the incident, but
thought it just as we'll to let his genial
friend tell all he knew about it, for Incl
dents of this kind are always interest

opinions on what they deemed his folly,
he said he would sell one of the old
hero's colts for more than he paid for
the horse. He took Norfolk to ST. Louis
in 1864, and ran him there. Winters,
who saw the colt perform, asked price
on him. He answered, $15,0Oi. When
the reason for the odd dollar was ex-
planned. the sale was effected. Winters
brought the colt to California, and Al
