SKILL OF THE TRAP SHOOTERS
Great Exhibition Given at the Omaha
Gun Club by the
Experts.

The annual meet OF the State Sports
mems association at the grounds Of the
Omaha Gun club was one OF the most sue
cessful ever held, but in spite Of the
number OF celebrated trap-shooters as
sembled the average made by all Of the
men who shot through the program Of
events was so low as to be frequently
~equalled by amateurs at a cross-country
meet. The reason for this poor showing is
we'll known TO those who had interest
enough in the tournament to go across
the river, where upon two days the wind
blew so hard, carrying sand with 1t from
the bars of the Missouri river, that at times
It was difficult TO see the targets.
The meeting added laurels 70 the brow
OF Fred Gilbert Of Spirit Lake, who again
demonstrated that he Is the best ALL
round trap-shooter in the United States.
In spite Of all OF the bad features Of the
weather Mr.. Gilbert's average was 9s per
cent, he missing but thirty-two targets out
OF the $50 thrown for him. William Crosby
OF O'Fallon. ILL.,, was second in the race,
his average being very near 95 per cent,

BASE BALL AT CREIGHTON
"OmahR's own" BeRins It's College
Season with Strong Showing
and High Hopes.

Another week Of hard practice has
passed, another game with the coming
western league champions has taken place
and now the Creighton university team, to-
gether with most of the colleges Of the
middle west, has entered upon its base ball
season proper. Thursday "Omaha's Own"
went down to Lincoln and met the Cotner
university team, which, excepting Nebraska,
has been a leader in base ball in this state.
The Creighton team defeated the Cotnerites
rs to 9. The score would indicate a poor
game, and owing to the terrific wind, that
almost tore a ball out Of the pitchers hand,
1t was not a frst-class quality of ball. But
the way the local varsity lads stole bases,
worked trick plays and pounded the ball
shows that they learned a trick or two in
their games with the league and in their
practice work.
However, neither this gam nor the game
with Bellevue are a test OF Creightons; to-
morrow the game with Washburn College
of Topeka, Kan.; Will be! a better one.
Washburn has long boosted one OF the
strongest teams in Kansas and her schedule
includes all the big universities of the
west. After tomorrow the next big game
for Creighton at omaha will be with the
Nebraska Indians on Saturday at Vinton
park. Last season the Indians played 1863
games and won 1877 of these contests. Since
their organization the Indians have won
five games out OF seven with the University
OF Nebraska, two out OF three from the
University Of Iowa and one from Indiana
and Wisconsin.
The storms Of last Tuesday and Friday
stopped work on the Creighton field and
blew down the fence, so the work is not
entirely complete. A day or two more will
see the grading completed and then the
Creighton people can boast as fine a col
lege diamond as they can desire, right in
the city, accessible to three car lines.
The week Just passed has been a poor one
for practice, but the men faced the wind
every day save Tuesday.
Midget 0'Hanlon has made a consider
able showing as pitcher and by next sea-
son should be among the Creighton star
twirlers. So also has Hanigan, subbing
at short during Galatians absence. Nc
Caffrey, the utility man, grows better
every day in practice. but somehow in a
game he Is assailed with a case Of ~rattles.
Second Baseman Lynch made up for his
of day In the Rourke series by knocking
a home run and Fielding his position to
perfection in the game at Lincoln Thurs
day. Creighton has taken q slump in his
batting and now Dineen, Lynch and Clark
equal II they do not surpass him In per-
centaRa.

The Crosby Elliott match for the cast
iron medal, which carries with II the
championship of the United States at live
bird shooting, was the important event Of
the tournament. The record made by Eli
lott in that event, killing ninety-seven
birds out Of 100, was one OF his best exhl-
billions, taking all surrounding circum-
stances into consideration. 1t is said that
the result Of the contest at Omaha is to

That's the unanimous verdict Of fandom
as regards the present championship sea-
son, and only one ballot was taken.
Omaha's share has only been what was
expected. The Rourke family has made
good IN its promise and II really seems
that Omaha has a look In for the pennant
this year. Milwaukee, OF course. is not in
such condition as to make any team ex-
tend itself. but we have evidence that the
omahas are capable OF playing first chop
ball. Duffy's men are individually strong
and once they get into line with each other
will make all their opponents hustle. Den
yer and st. Joe we're probably the most
evenly matched antagonists Of the week
unless II was Des Moines and Peoria, the
latter pair being in another class, how
ever. Erratic work marked the playing Of
all the teams but Omaha 1t is too soon,
though, to give a line on the seasons out

has been good everywhere, and augurs well
for the financial success Of base ball in the
west this season.

1t Will be necessary, of course, for each
National league club to pursue each Offend

players liable to this pursuit for breaking
contracts with the National and jumping to

What action will be taken by the mag
mates has not yet been definitely decided
upon. From the National league camp
comes the announcement that the Jump
Ing players will all have to face the court.
Funds are at hand to prosecute the in
junction suits In all courts necessary, and
a general fight will be made. It Is not at
all likely, however, that such a course will
be taken. 1t would smack too much Of
persecution and would more than likely re-
suit In winning again for the American
public sympathy and support, which It hes
rapidly been losing. Ban Johnson says the
American league will take no united action,
but each individual club will take what
ever steps are necessary to protect its
players. c.. w. Somers, vice president Of
the American, says the National will not
he able to make the injunctions hold, but
just why he does not say. One thing
alone is certain, the decision is a clear
exposition Of the law and logic OF base
ball contracts and will tend in the future
to make the players more careful what
they sign and rival magnates more care
full about e~nticing players away from con-
tracts.

This decision will fall with great weight
on the American league. sixty-four play
ers are Affected by 1t. They are the stars
Of the game, and have been enlisted by
reason Of the great advance in salary over
what the National league paid them. An
idea Of the extravagant salaries paid by the
American may be gained from the following
list, which, while not %oficial, Is said to be
accurate:

That Ban Johnson's league has lost in
popularity is apparent. At the outset It
was a protest against methods employed
by the National league, and as such It won
friends rapidly. 1t proposed to give high
class ball at a low rate of admission. This
was a popular move. It has gone, how
ever, the way of so many good things.
Prices have been raised and many of the
features so Objectionable in the National
have shown themselves in the American.
In this raid on the National the Johnson
ties went too far and loaded themselves
up with stars. This forced the National
to take up the youngsters, and, 10! the
boys whose names were only familiar to
minor league patrons are making good
with the big league, and people are learn
ing that a batting list full Of great names
Is not necessary to a good game OF ball.
The American is carrying the load this
year as a result OF Its overreaching.
