there is a good deal of Justice in the objec-

because the citizens of the capital pledged
themselves to raise the necessary money

THERE was such bitter fight over the
Indiana postofiice that Huff drew on him
self the hostility of all the anti -Elkin faction
when he appointed ex-County Chairman
Langham to the place. Langhams oppo
nent was an old soldier, and that
clement will therefore be arrayed
against Huff throughout the district.
This Indiana postoffice matter has an odd
story BACK of it in which an Episcopalian
dignitary, Cabinet officer, Il Methodist
man and a couple of prominent Democrats
are all concerned. 1t is not bad story this.

HAMLET AT THE BAT.

To sacrifice, or not to sacrifice. that is the
question.
Whether Ills better in the average to suffer
The absence and lack of base hits
Or take chances against n lot of feeders
Aud by smuggling make them. TO find-to fan
No more, and by drive, to say we end
The strike outs, and the thousand natural
slips
This flesh is heir to; It's contamination
Devoutly TO be wished. To iind-to fan
To fan! perchance TO touch; ay, there's the
rub;
For in that bit OF chance what outs may
come,
When we have lined il off to second base
Must give us pause; there's the respect
That makes calamity of Il double play
For who would bear the Kisses and Jeers of
kids,
The managers oaths, the grand stands
groans,
The pangs of lost bonuses, the captain
wrath,
The insolence of bleachers and the guys
That unlucky players of the newspapers take,
When he himself might his rep. make
With great sacrifice? Who would make
short bunts
To grunt and sweat for an out on first
But that the dread of something on second,
That well-covered country, from whose field
A ball quickly returns, puzzles the eve,
And makes us rather make the hits we know
Than 10 fly out TO fields we know not of?
Thus batting does make towards or US all;
And thus the mighty muscles of batters
Are handicapped ever with the wish to bunt:
And smashers of great eyes and limbs
Out of regard to this, home runs never make
And lose the name of slugger.

There was a parade before the game In
which the players, city officials. the
swell clubs of the town. Mayor Holmes,
Gov. Crittenden and many prominent
citizens took part. The streets were
lined with thousands, and the street
cars and many buildings were decorated.
The game was witnessed by four thou

the opposing pitchers, and Eitejorg
got the best of it, holding MINNEAPOLIS
down to five hits. He would have
had them out but for n terrific line

OMAHA. Neb., April 1G.-Never within
the history Of the game las Omaha had
such an suspicious opening Of the season
as that today. After the parade the
people swarmed TO the park in hOcks,
and by 3 O'Clock fully 1000 people were
crowded in the grand stand and on the
bleachers. 1t was a larger crowd than
was on the grounds even on holiday
last year Everybody is consequently
happy. Both the Omahas and St. Pauls.
despite their lack Of practice, showed up
IN great shape, and when they took
their positions at the call of play they
were long and loudly cheered. Although
the game would strike an or
binary observer as a very Onc-sided
affair, it was one of the
best and the most brilliant games ever
witnessed here, ST. Paul particularly
putting up clean article of ball, their
only errors being two bad throws by
Wadsworth. Up to the seventh inning
he was very effective, but at this stage
seemed to become exhausted, ard a
change would have been an advisable
proceeding. Capt. Alvord, after this
inning, however, considered the game
as good as lost, and as WadswOrth
wanted to pitch it out, no change was
made. Alvord himself played great
game, fielding quickly, clearly and
brilliantly, and batting hard. However,
it would be useless to particularize
where all did 50 we'll. st. Paul has
team she has no reason to be ashamed
Of, and one that is certain to render
good account of itself.
The Omahas surprised everybody,
not only in their heavy stick work, but
by their clever work on the lines and
their star performance in the field. Con
siderable money was lost on st. Paul.
The story Of the game is as follows: On
three hits, steal and wild pitch,
Omaha made three runs in the first, and
then were BANKED until the sixth, when
two hits and an error by Wadsworth
melted one more, and in the next in
ming, on five hits and two bases on balls,
five more were piled up. The Apostles
made one in each the third and fourth
on hit by pitched ball and four singles.
Satellite and Chamberlain will be the
visitors battery tomorrow against Hayes
and IlardibOc for the home team.

ginning, and was taken out OF the box
at the end of the second inning after six
hits had been made, Cuppy taking his
place. The game abounded in double
plays, and was full of interest. Cleye-
land had man on bases in every inning
save one. Only four hits were made off
Chamberlain up to the eighth, when
Cleveland made strong effort and
scored two runs. In the last inning the
visitors earned one more and the game
closed with man on third base. The
features of the game were Chlld's play
ing at second and Morgan Murphy'S fine
work behind the bat. Davis hurt his
leg in the first inning and left the game.

MANUFACTURING SITES.

We have for sale a tract OF

best site for factories in either
city. 1t has a spur track run

with all the railroads running
into either city, except one,
and also with the Mime
sofa Transfer. 1t is one Of the
rev tracts left in the Midway Dis
trict, accessible to good railroad
trackage, large enough TO accom-
m0date large manufacturing con-
Germ, and is therefore very valua-
bic. The Midway District, trav-
ersed in every direction by railroads
and electric lines. and drawing
population and business from both
cities, is rapidly filling up. and a
few years will see property there
quadrupled in value. 1t is bound
III the near future to become the
great center or population Of our
dual city. and the owners Of land
there will be wealthy. We can sell

by Meaga lost an opportunity for three
runs. Until the eighth inning. after the
start, Forson was invncible, but in this
inning he let down and was hit hard.
The local players showed their lack of

work lost the game. The Milwaukee
team showed up in clever form, fielding
sharply and batting opportunity. Score:

times. White has also met some
good men and has never been
