Dies MONIES, To-, July 20.-The game
to-day was for blood and proved to be
the most exciting of the season. Bar
ring the fifth inning, Tuckerman
pitched a superb game, but in that in
ming eleven of the home team went to
bat. and seven of them scored three
singles and two two-baggers. Errors
by Carroll and Miller helping in the
runs. This placed the home team three
runs in the lead, and in order to make
it safe Hart was put in the box and
Kennedy who had been touched up
pretty regularly, was sent to the bench.
But the change didn't work we llfor
Hart gave the first two batsmen their
bases on balls, which, with hit and an
error, resulted in two runs. Des
Moines forged one ahead again in the
eighth OF Patton'S three-bagger and
Connell's single. But the visitors tied
the score again in their half of the in
ming on Carroll's. single and Cody's
attempt to catch Miller at second. The
ninth was out in order for both teams.
and it was for Des MOines in the tenth,
but st. Paul was luckier. Reilly struck
out, but Cody dropped the ball. He
threw it little high to Smith. and Sam
dropped it. Werrick got base on balls,
but was forced out at second on tielder's
choice of Carroll's hit. Miller then hit
to Klusman, who threw wild to the
plate to cut off Carroll, and the latter
scored, winning the game. The at
tendance was the largest of the season,
outside of the holidays. Score:

EVEN UMPIRES DIE.

poor, misguided umpire lay dying. 1t ap-
pears
There was lack of tender usage, there was
dearth of friendly cheers;
And a player stood beside him as his life's
sands ebbe6 away,
And bent with rapt attention to hear what he
might say.
The dying umpire faltered, as he took the
players paw,
And he said: ''Old boy, I'm going-you will
miss my tuneful jaw: z
Say to all your brother players who were once
dear friends of mine:
If they cheek the man who runs the game
they must expect fine
"Tell the pitcher of your base ball club q
think his name is Mike)
That he can't expect each ball that's pitched
to be declared a strike;
And he mustn't scowl and show his wrath,
or make display of gall,
When the hired man behind the plate shouts
forcibly One ball!'
Tell the catcher not to pause and grin just
when the ball is caught,
Such breaks as these will change mans de-
cision not jot;''
Besides" he said (his CLASSY eyes were wet
with tears of brine.
''They cannot grumble if they get a reasona-
BILE fine.
.'Tell your coacher. who near first or third is
wont to take his place,
Not to open up his fusilade until a mans on
base;
And, furthermore. if captain, 1 would warn
him TO desist,
For he makes the people tired, and he never
would be missed.
Tell the fellows that an umpire only human
after all,
And they can't expect him not to err some
times in games of ball;

And the only way one has to keep recaici-
trants in line
Is to soc ct tuem' gently with 'tenner' for a

Say to all the members of your club, when
e'er disputes arise.
That it hurts ones feelings keenly to be told
direct he lies;
And also TO the fellows three who occupy
the field
To hold their ground because, be sure, the
umpire viii not yield.
This wordy warfare only serves to long delay
the game;
You may hound the umpire all you like. he'll
get there just the same,
And he'll make cold shivers chassez up and

By passing round among them all souvenir

Tell the funny men VINO make remarks
while seated in the stand
Their witticisms are chestnuts and at no
time in demand;
That umpires cannot always rule in favor OF
their team,
However strange and startling this assertion
now may seem,
And cries of Rats and Put him outr

Disgust all lovers of the game-are silly, stale
and fat;
Such people should IN dungeons be and there

For umpires cannot reach them with the Gus

PITTSBURG In THE PURGE.
The Phillies Wallop the Smoky
City Lads Twice in One Day.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 20.-The
Phillies played remarkable ball to-day
and won two games from the Pittsburgs
which were characterized for their fine
fielding and heavy hitting. The first
game was splendid contest in which
Pitchers Staley and Buffinton took i'm
portant parts. They were both given
splendid support. the work of Dunlap,
Mulvey and Mailman being a special
feature. The visitors scored three runs
in the first two innings OH three singles,
a double and errors by Fogarty and
Hallman. The Phillies played steady,
uphill game and scored the winning
run in the tenth inning on Hallman's
double against the fence and Clements
single. The second game proved a
veritable smuggling match on the part of
the home team, Gentle Jeems' CALVIN
being sized up to the tune of twenty
three, with a total of forty-three base
hits. Every man in the team made
one or more hits. and Wood and
Thompson each drove the ball twice
over the fence. Sanders, after a good
rest, appeared in the box and by his
puzzling out-curves confined the hitting
of his opponents to two singles and two
doubles. The work of young Mailman
in this game almost drove the crowd
wild with delight. and old Pop" Smith
also came in for a fair share of the ap-
plause. The attendance was 5000.

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

The most important item of news in
the Western association the past week
was the announcement that Sioux City
was financially shaky and about to drop
out of the organization. The club has
been losing so steadily that the people
have lost interest in 1t, and the d.
rectOrs, seeing an unpromising outlook,
are trying to dump their load.
An attempt to sell the team to
Lincoln was followed by an offer
to give it away. The Nebraska
capital is apparently not anxious for
ball, as it declined the team even as
gift. The club Is home now, and losing
prospects are it will disband at the end
Of the week, though it may make its
scheduled two-weeks' trip over the
Northern circuit. The death of the club,
however, is only matter of time, and
the 10th of August will probably find
the Iowa town without a team. The
struggle for the pennant in the mean
time goes merrily On. Omaha still
leads; In fact, has gained twenty-five
points on st. Paul during the week.
Both clubs, however, have lower per-
centage than week ago. Minneapo-
lis is playing the strongest game of
any club in the league, and, now that 1t
has passed the 500 hoodoO mark. may
make the leaders hustle for the pennant.
The season is but half over, and the ten
games which separate the twins may be
overcome by the Flour City nine. St.
Paul is weak in the box and cannot
hope to take the flag unless there is a
material addition of the genus twirler.

THE MINNEAPOLIS TEAM.
By taking four games out OF six from

have ceased to play tail-end ball, the
Millers have won belt which they will
find good deal of exercise in defend

the coming week. Four games with the
Apostles the first of the week and three
with Omaha to close it will put them
to very severe test, and if their per-
centage isn't materially lowered before
next Saturday night, the Flour City
crankS will have cause to be jubilant
indeed. Drischel, the new left fielder,
doesn't seem to be doing the batting
that he did on his first appearance here,
but his base-running is something to
make the enthusiasts smile, and his
field play is in remarkable contrast with
that of West. Devlin, the south-paw.

A Newspaper Man Makes Some
Sensational Charges.
NEW YORK, July 2O.-The Evening
News, in an extra edition, gives to the
public this:
"a letter received from we'll known
newspaper man outs a new aspect on
the result of the battle of Sullivan and
Kilrain. The writer says: "From in
formation l have received and
from investigations l have made, l
am confident that Kllrain was 'dosed'
prior to his battle with John l.. Sulli-

the parties who cOncOcted the plot.
The business was done at Richburg
Sunday, on the eve of the fight. Xii
rain was given Indian hemp, mixed in
jelly, and the effects of the drug did
its work steadily, with the assistance of
the torrld sun. One of the parties who
put up the ring with Denny A. Butler
has the secret, and it is more than
probable that he will expose the
plot" A News reporter called on
Frank Stevenson in regard to
the above. Stevenson said: 'Kilrain

a strange feeling. Whether he was
drugged or not do not know" Johns

NIILLERS DID 1T AGAIN.
The Series of Defeats at Mil
yankee Avenged.

Sam Morton's hired men went in to
win yesterdays game and the Brewers
went in to do the same thing. Both
teams were playing ball from the word
go, and it was less One-sided contest
than the score would indicate. Mil
waukee is playing good ball now, and
certainly has prize in Shoch, the new
short stop, whose play yesterday was
little short of phenomenal, but it cou Id
not save the game. as the Mlllers, who
had on their gray batting clothes,
seemed to want their hits tielded by
small boys, and sent five balls over the
chicken netting, three of them bringing
III men already on bases. The hits OF
the two teams were equal so far as num-
Der is concerned, each getting ten, but
while the visitors hit for only fourteen
bases, the home team lined it out for
twenty-six sacks. Sutton mutfed Han,
rahan's long, low fly after hard
foundation for the firstrun of the game,
but, with this very eXcusable exception,
the game was err0rless until the eighth
inning, when Turner muffed MOrriSSy'S
fly after long run toward center, and
Albert evened matters up by throwing
wild to first. giving Hengle life. The
feature of the game, aside from ShOch's
play at short, was the batting of the
home team. In the third JantZen got a
single, and the next two men went
out. Then Foster kindly pushed
the ball way over the right field
fence to Fifth street boarding house.
In the next inning Tom Turner sent it
over right center with two men out and
the bases clear. JantZen was the first
man to bat in the fourth and he mauled
the leather out over the left garden
wall for four bags. Foster got single,
Miller advanced him two bases with a
hit to left, and he stole home on Hur-
Iey's Intellectual throw to second to
catch Miller. The sixth was Water
loo for Griffith. MoXie Hengle
came up first and knocked
out a clean double. Then Tom
Turner hit for his second home run,
and made the circle midst perfect
howl of applause. Devln, the iceberg
south paw, followed that up with an
other four.bagger, which was the last
hit of the game for Minneapolis, as
Griffith seemed to be excited after that,
and struck out the next two men, and
kept Morton's leather-killers off the
ball all the rest of the game. Milwau-
kee got two hits in the first
inning, but Poorman tried to
score ON Schoch's foul fly
to Minnehan and Dannie caught him at
the plate, making pretty double and
closing the inning. In the fourth Ker-
by Swiped one of Devlin's twiSters over
the left Enclosure for a home run and
Sutton scored in the sixth on his own
double and Morrissy's long single. Tom
Turner's error and loves single gave
the Brewers their third and last run IN
the eighth. Devlin and Miller made
circus one-hand stops and Sutton has a
wonderful catch in deep center to his
credit. Umpire Clarke should have two
assists, one on Griffith's strike out in
first in the same inning. Otherwise he
gave better satisfaction than he has be.

BALTIMORE, July 20.-The detective,
John L. Norris, of Springfield, o., who
spent the last two days in New York
looking after Mitchell and Pony Moore,
arrived here on the 2:45 train this morn
ing. He had come to arrest Jake Kill
rain and Johnny Murphy. He handed
Marshal Frey his requisition papers
signed by the governor of Mississippi
for the arrest Of Jake Kilrain, principal,
and Charley Mitchell, Mike Donovan
and John Murphy, as accessories,
in breaking the law of Mississippi.
The marshal said that the requisi-
ton was useless, as it did not
specify the state of Maryland or bear
the counterslgn of Gov. jackson. and
that he could not order Kilrain's arrest
until he received warrant signed by
Gov. Jackson. Detective Norris went
up to Jake's house, but he had been splr-
tied away by his friends, and the de-
tective apparently thinking his trip use
less, disappeared at the Pennsylvania
railroad station, but whether he has
really left town is not positively known.

New YORK, July 2O.-The left field
of the polo grounds was entirely sub
merged with water this afternoon. and
all balls hit out in that territory were
only good for two bases, as man was
kept there for the purpose of returning
the ball to the infield. The batting hon
ors were about equal, only that the New
YOrkS made LONGER hits than their OPP
ponents, and were more fortunate in
punching their hits at such times as
their opponents were making their
errors. Fine running catches were
made by Gore and Sullivan. Score:
