Locally base ball is quiescent. The only
interest that is shown is to what viii
constitute the circuit in which Omaha is
to be located next season. An effort Is
being made to Teorganize the Western on
class A basis, emitting at least one Of
the Colorado cities. Pueblo has announced
that 1t will be in the circuit, with down
town park, and everything in better shape.
Under these circumstances II may be that
the Pittsburg Of the West will get an
other chance. Lincoln has been tentatively
approached. The difficulty down there Is
the inability to play Sunday ball, Lincoln
will be a good town for a team when mat
tiers are SO adjusted that the people can
go to a game on the only day in the week
on which they can leave their business.
contract for term of years, but Bill
Rourke is opposed to entering into a new
agreement for longer than a year, as he
wants to have Omaha free to take ad-
vantage of any opening that may arise in
connection with another and better circuit.
Rourke has suffered much in pocket be-
cause he abided by his agreement with
the Western when Tebeau and Hickey
were framing up the American association.
He has lived up to his contract in both
letter and spirit, and is the only man now
at its formation. He is willing to be fair
with the little fellows, but insists that
hereafter he is going to look after Omahas
interests a little closer and let the smaller
towns help themselves more.

Women have accepted the invitation OF
the Omaha Bowling association TO use the
bowling alleys in the forenoon in such large
number that a very pretty sight is pre-
scented each morning from 1920 until noon;
In fact the men are about crowded out
entirely during that period. The manage
ment however, is gratihed at the way that
the women are becoming interested In the
bowling game as the cooler weather comes
on, and everything will be done that is
possible to keep up this interest. League
bowling continues to be the center of in
terest and, owing to the special attractions
which have been coming on apace during
the past few weeks, nearly all other con-
tests have been neglected, but with the
passing Of the Ak-Sar-Ben festivities and
the Horse Show the bowlers will find more
time for special contests. About Novem-

tended to the women who took part In the
last Field club contest The opening date
has been set ahead In order TO give the
women ample time for practice, for which
purpose the alleys will be at their DISMISSAL
every morning from 1880 until noon with
out charge. The same opportunity for
morning bowling is given all women.

The sale of Jack Pfeister 20 the Chicago
National league team is a matter OF much
satisfaction to Omaha fans, as the Chicago
team is locally popular, and the faith we
all have in Pfeister is that he will
strengthen II greatly. He will replace
Weimer on the team, Jal1ey going to Gin
cinnati. where he will probably be better
liked than he is in the Windy city. Who
will manage the Chicago team next season
Is not yet settled, but he will have to be
a wonder II he makes the followers of the
Cubs forget Frank Seee. Pfeister will be
paid $500 month for six months services
and receives $1,000 bonus for signing This
ought to be an eye-opener to foxy Ned
Hanlon. who offered Pfelster just what
Rourge was paying him, $500 a month and
no bonus.

prelude to what will be I'm some ways at
least the most important event In base ball
annals OF recent years, the play on for
the worlds championship between the
Athletics and the Giants Here are two Of
the grandest base ball teams ever or
ganized. SO strong are the Giants in re-
lation to the National league that they have
held first place at their mercy for two
seasons, and have clearly outclassed all
competition. McGraw has one OF the great
est fielding and run-getting machines ever
gotten together, and is equipped with
pitching stan that has proved Of great SER
vice in all tight places. In two seasons
McGraw's team has never been set to hard
enough TO be forced to really extend it.
eef, and its fun effective force on the
field is not known On the other hand, a
pretty good line may be had on the Ath-
letics from their late experience. No team
ever set itself a harder task than Macks
when It undertook to check the swift on
rush Of Comiskey's victorious White Sox.
This was a series Of games that might stag
ger even a brave team. but the Athletics
met the Chicago invaders at time when
they were at the top of their speed, playing
with confidence of assured victors and
checked them. Two games out of three,
enough to insure the championship were
captured by the Athletics I'm heart breaking
contests, and now they are At to play for
the proud position Of leaders of the world.
Their mettle has been fully tried, and Is
known to be the real thing. II McGraws
team is as good as its friends think the
series that starts In Philadelphia on Mon
day will be one to talk about for many
years II will surely be a strugg'0 of
giants.

About the winner two opinions exist. One
faction pins its faith to Rube Waddell,
Plank and Coakley with Bender and
Powers to fill in, and the other calmly re-
plies that these fellows haven't faced a real
bunch Of batters for a long time, and ask
that judgment he suspended until after
Dan Mccain. Mike Donlin Sandnw Mertes
Roger Bresnahan, Frank Bowerman and a
few more of Muggsy's menagerie get one
good turn at them. The supporters Of the
Giants fondly point out Christy Matthew
son, Iron Man Joe McGlnnity. Dummy
Taylor, Leon Ames and the others, and
ask what has any one of the Athletic
pitchers got on any of these? All around
the diamond the points of the men are
being compared, and no presidential con-
test ever waged hercer in preliminary de-
bate than this argument between the fans
or course this difference of opinion leads
to betting, and generally the belief of each
enthusiast is being supported by his cash
so that the proverbial expression "a ton
Of money" will be light to what is actually
wagered on the outcome by the time the
series starts. The Bee. being the only real
sporting newspaper In these parts, will
print daily full accounts of the games, with
the detailed scores.

Everything looks rosy for the Haskell
Indian foot ball team and the coaches
are correspoDdingly jubllant, Plenty Of
men are on hand and there are plenty Of
veterans and the men are all big, strong
and husky. Big Hauser will be moved
from end TO halfback. and Moore will play
quarter with McGlashen as sub. Boyd A,
Hill West Point 1900 and 1901, is the coach
to succeed Herrnstein and with the help
of Oliver should develop a fast team. He
coached the Oklahoma state normal last
year. The Haskell team will this fall
travel farther on it's trips than any other
team in the world. No foot ball team has
ever attempted to cover such distances
as the redskin team will this year Only
one game on the schedule. the first, is to
be played at home, The cities visited by
the team are Hays City, Kan; Austin,
Tex; Oklahoma City, Okl. Columbia, Mo;
Wichita, Kan; Des Moines, Ia; Denver,
Colo. Los Angeles, CAL; the return from
Los Angeles and Salt Lake City, Utah, A
separate trip will be taken from Lawrence
to each of these places except Phoenix
and Salt Lake City. Phoenix will be played
on the return from Los Angeles and Salt
Lake City will be an extension of the
Denver trip. The game at Salt Lake City
win probably be played with the University
Of Utah or the Utah state agricultural
college.

Concerning the Chicago team. the Mime
apolis Journal says: "a Chicago paper
says Stage and his men are working like
Trojans. This Is a most unfortunate smile.
Had the Chicago booster said that Stage
and his men were working like a switch
engine and gang Of furniture cars in the
Grand Rapids freight yards. the COMPARE
son would have been more happy one.
Trojans were only of normal size. The
hippopotami are me biggest since that
other Cardiff mummy was unearthed."
After trying out punters for thirty min
utes at each nights foot ball practice,
Coach Fuhrer gave the Doane varsity
stiff signal practice instead OF a scrimmage
on account OF the small number OF men
out for drill. Day was in his room with a
slight attack Of indigestion and Specs was
out OF the practice on account Of a slightly
sprained ankle The snap and ginger that
characterized the team last year has not
appeared in this years aggregation. At
present the line is slow and indifferent IN
its work and the back field seems TO lack
some of its Old-time dash Farrow the
new tackle, shows up with considerable
promise, while Bronson. another new man,
has the making Of a good guard. The
latest addition 20 the squad was Doane, a
young man from Fremont Smith. who
played on the second team last year, is
expected out in a few days, and his pres
ence will help the scrimmage work. The
squad still numbers less than twenty-five
men. Among this number there Is a
scarcity of good scrub material To furnish
the varsity with a satisfactory scrimmage.
More men are needed on the practice field
and general shaking-up process will
probably be instituted. as all legitimate
ma ms hn hnn
able candidates out.

with pistol by Officer McKinnon i'm
mediately preceding the shooting. and
in the midst of a melee that had
swamped the policeman. The latter
was being beaten, 1t is said. by the
Rothwells and six or more other boys
in the crowd with them.
James Rothwell had snatched Patrol
man McKinnon's billy from him and
was whacking him over the head, by
ISLANDERS say, when the officer pulled
his gun and, almost knocked down,
fired towards James feet. The ball,
however, penetrated the abdomen, in
fiicting mortal wound.
