Omaha won the last game Of the present
home series from Pueblo Sunday afternoon
before a crowd OF 2,sO people at Vinton
Street park by shutting out the selee In
iians by the score Of 20 0. Although the
Ray dished up by the weather man was
mbre like the middle OF March than the
last day OF May, the crowd stayed through
all the cold and wind and saw good
game Of ball. True, not many OF the local
fans were out. as the majority Of the
large crowd was made up Of visitors from
the state and western Iowa who had come
in on the Rock Island excursions.
Many amusing incidents arose during the
game One man from the rural precincts
refused to give up his ticket at the gate
saying they always kept their tickets at
home to show they had paid to get in the
grounds. The richest was when Pa hap
pened 10 glance at one of the boxes and
saw two young men from the suburbs
who had been duaffing from two bottles.
They had the bottles lined up on the rail
in front OF them and did not seem to know
the lid was supposed to be on In Omaha
and that beer was not supposed to be I'm
use on the Sabbath. They must have
thought they were in st. Louis, where beer
is served in the grandstand. At any rate,
formed they were in the wrong city to in
dulge In such luxuries at the ball game.
These people from the towns in the state
are as a rule better posted on the members
Of the team than Omaha people who simply
read the papers and do not attend the
game. They know every player by sight
and know his whole history They follow
all the games closely by reading the full
scores In The Bee and know what is going
on in the sporting world.

Morrison was pitching for selee and
Dodge did the honors for Omaha. The
Pueblo team was having a little the better

The eighth inning was the downfall Of
Pueblo for the day. Corns started OF with
= safe one to left and Bassey hunted safe

threw to Meyer and the latter dropped the
ball, filling the bases. Dolan knocked a
grouncer TO third and Faurot. one OF Sc
, lees pitchers who was playing the POSI-
AASon, threw the ball Home in time to catch
Corns. Sister then tried for double play
to first, but was too late and on the play
Bassey scored before Meyer could recover
the ball and get 1t home. sisler then threw
the ball to third to try to catch Welcf
