For it Sels us the blossoms arc coming,
That aature has walked from her rest.
.snd witching the red robins warble,
That foats the June sunset along;
d I Omaha owns q melody sweeter,
n exCaptain Crooks gay song.
That's what all tho fans and cranks think,
anyway, and they drank In its dulcct strains
yesterday afternoon to their hearts content,

And so II, sang all tho afternoon long, and
as a consequ suce there was some vim and
snap about wsy would hi. 20 been otherwise
a rionotonous s'yuggle, and everybody came
away from the b ounds imagining they had
seen q hot fight.
But indeed, ne game was interesting :,
notwithstanding tAS lopsidedress Of tie
score, and it is smo,,'cus to doughnuts thai
the White Sox must ecp busy all the time
to take this afternoons Nall.
The Prohibitionists BE playing well and
are apt to stumble on victory almost any
time.
hut you've heard the old fable about the
llind hog ana the acorn.
1t was sort of patched up team Omaha
had in the field but il all patched up teams
play as they did it would be advisable for
Milwaukee, st. Joe and other rural teams to
do little patching.
Big fat Jakey Strauss was behind the bat,
and Jevne, recently from California, was in
right, and both positions were most credlta-
bly, played.
But the game.
Willis opened up the sport with a rap to
center, and a prolonged shout showed that
the crowd was out for whole lot of fun.
The fair-haired boy quickly collared sec.
ond AID on Growers retirement ut first
reached third. Jakey Strauss, who was on
his mettle all round, then walked up to the
plate, and without any unnecessary dilly-
dallying, smashed out trsacker, and Willis
scored. And so did Jakey, moment subse-
quently, on the ex-captains sizzling srounder
past big MeDhistopheles Smith. Jack stole
second, but was left
No more runs were made until the fourth,
when the cold water gang managed to get
their clamps on one, and it was the only one
they got throughout the entire game.
So glad!
MIR. Whiteley began the work by scratch
hit to right A passed ball let him to sec
ond, and after Klusman had been given first
on four wide ones, Connell sent Whiteley
home astride fine two-sackcr.
Fortunate Mr.. Whiteley.
Sam Smith then drove q hot one to Crooks
who threw to Walsh, and Connell was
caught off his base and thereby was executed
brilliant double play.
That was clever and the people shouted
Justify.
Macullar, the third man, was easily dis
posed Of
In the sixth the locals scored their thirt
tally, Crooks getting his base on wide balls,
stealing second and crossing the rubber OIL
Walsh's hit.
a Two more were added in the seventh, five
in the eighth and two the ninth, making
twelve altogether.
And that is the way the game ended
So everybody was happy and left the park
with beaming faces.
There is the score:
OMAHA.
