TINE FOR The GIANTS
Manitoba and Chicago Have Things Very
Much Their Own Way.
OMAHA AND MINNESOTA THE LOSERS
'Finc Points OF Cricket Well shown I'm
Both Matches, the Disparity In
the Teams Counting
bat Little.

The strong teams were lined up against
the weaker sisters in the tournament of the
Northwestern Cricket association yester-
day and the very natural result followed.
Manitoba and Chicago won, while Omaha and
Minnesota bit the dust. 1t was an off day
for the Denverites and they lolled about
the shade and watched their brethren
hustling out in the sun.
Both the victories were rather easy
things, although the two innings were
played in each match. Omaha had a tough
proposition in the Manitoba aggregation,
and was downed by a run and nine wickets.
Minnesota stacked up much more strongly
against the Chicagoans than did Denver,
and at that was beaten by a couple Of runs
and three wickets. There were no hard
feelings, though. because things happened
Just as they were expected TO.
The Manitoba team arrived in the city
On the morning and although they had quite
n bit OF travelling they got the game i'm
mediately. They are q gentlemanly lot of
good fellows, and they let the local team
down easy in the first innings. In the sec
ond innings. however, they walked right
in and showed what they could do. "It's
too bad that the match did not end with
the first innings declared a r~egretful adj
mirer of omaha's stalwart cricketers, at
would not have been half so bad And it
wouldn't.
AS a matter Of fact, Omaha's standard
bearers have no reason to be ashamed of
themselves for their showing against the
Canadian cracks. In that first innings. es-
pecially, the bowling of the visitors was
nuts for them. Taylor, Tufield, Bate. New
and Simms all landed in the double figures.
Hard luck and, incidentally of course, the
fine fielding of the Winnipeg crowd cut
ihem short, for they protected their wickets
in nice shape. In their end of the argument
but three of the Canadians got their eve
on the twisters that the local bowlers let
loose, all the rest falling by the wayside
with more or less grace. Pole carried off
,the honors with twenty-seven runs. Bate
ibid some excellent bowling. He took five
'wickets and only twenty four runs were
Hnade off him in the eleven overs.
News Nice Batting.
Harry New was the bright particular
luminary in the Omaha cricket armament
in the second innings. II the rest of the
push had followed the pace he set it would
be hard to tell what might have happened
TO those Canadians. He came UP early In
the list and he wore holes in the crease
while his compatriots were being retired.
HE was still piling up runs when the tenth
man went out, and he was not out with
1wenty-seven to his credit-half the total
number made by the Omahas, and not so
poor for an exposition city amateur.
When they went in to bat the Canadians
had only thirty-eight runs to get to win, and
They made short work of it. One wicket
fell. but while this was happening one Mr..
Pole was saving wood as If he had TO
earn his beer in that way. All bowlers
looked alike to him, and he punctured
twelty-One holes in the ntnocnbora yyb;,b
with a bit OF assistance from a couple of his
brethren and a little more from the Omahas,
Were sufficient to give the match to Man.
