IN Two gruelltng games, In which hits
we're plentiful and excitement intense.
Omaha and Sioux City broke even on a
doubie-header at Vinton Street park satur-
day afternoon before crowd of 5000 peo-
pie, including the Voice and Voice No 2,
which Is a good second to the original
Cant put 'em over"
Eddie Quick and Jarrett we're the oppos-
ing slab artists in the opening performance
Quick started out like a race horse. while
Jarrett was batted all over the lot but
matters were soon reversed. Three runs
were made by the Champs in the first in
ming and two in the second and they died
Six hits were used up in making these
hve talies and but three more came dur
ing the remainder of the game Sioux City
made single of Quick in the first inning
but Sheehan was caught in an attempt to
steal second, and no more were made until
the fourth, when Mr.. Quick was pounded
numerically all over the lot and on the
shlns.
Onslaught on Quick.
The inning started with an error by
Dolan, which gave Pulslfer a life, and
then came Noblit with a double, Newton
with triple, O'Hara with a single and
starnagle with single, which, coupled
with an error by Quick, brought in the
fourth run. Jarrett, the next man up, hit
corker, which landed right on the shin
of Mr. Quick and bounded over to first
where Thomas made the first putout of the
inning. Quick was put out of service by
the blow and retired in favor OF Mr. Hall
who was quite effective, but who was not
backed up by his teammates in a manner
calculated to win ball games. Six errors
were made by the Champs. and these were
largely responsible for the loss of the
game. Two more runs were made by tn,
Sioux in the NTH inning on two single,
by Weed and Pusifer and an error by
Dolan.

Sioux went up in the air and Thiel wa
across the home plate before they hat
settled down. A play was pulled off at thi
stage which Is not seen very often on an.
