DENVER LOSES TWO TO LINCOLN
Pitchers Have a Bad Day, but Lincoln
Gets the Best Break.

DENVER, Colo, Aug. B.-Lincoln took
two games from Denver today on better
hitting and better fielding. The Denver
pitching staff seemed to 80 bad all the
way, as three pitchers we're used in the
first game and two in the second. The
Lincoln pitchers grew wild toward the
close Of the games, so that team also had

attack on Johnson, getting four hits in
succession. Hendricks was substituted, he

high just out of Whites reach and then
bounded away from him, permitting Fox
to get three bases on what should have
been a single. Jude sacrificed him home.

GRAND ISLAND BALL LEAGUE
Whit Elephants Nearly Have PEN
nant CInched.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Aug. 25.-(Spe-
cial.)-In the City league series, the leaders,
the White Elephants, with a record OF
twenty games won and four lost, have but
one game to win to make the pennant
safe out of a series of seventy-eight games
between the four teams, or thirty-nine Tor
each team. But twelve games are still to
be played, or about six for each team, not
including the postponed games.
There is some speculation as to base
ball for next year. In many respects the
game has been a successful one. 1t has
been purely amateur, and none but home
boys, under the rules, has been eligible.
Tie suggestion has been offered that next
year, ii other cities of this size could be
Induced to do likewise, there would be a
four or five-team league in each interior
city, each city having an all-City league
team, chosen by a manager Independent
OF all Individual teams and having author
ity to pick men from each of the City
league teams to play lik all-Ctty league
teams In other cities. The game would
thus be kept solely on amateur lines.
In point OF attendance at games there has
under the City league been somewhat OF a
falling off, as compared with semi-profes-
sional teams, despite the fact that the In
terest in the race for the final pennant
was supposed to be maintained and be a
feature not possible with indiscriminate, In
dependent team playing. The sporting ele-
ment has never had any interest In the
league and there. has not been sufficient
support drawn from other sources to make
up the loss. The City league standing at
present Is as follows:

NOVEL CONDITIONS FOR DERBY
New system of Starting to BE Tried
in Great Race.


READVILLE, Mass, Aug. 26.-Early con-
ditions for the. great American Trotting
Derby, $4,000, were ideal today and thou
sands of spectators thrOnged the ReadVille
track to see the most novel harness race
ever trotted In this country. The entry
list of thirty-eight horses was too large
TO start Off In one grand dash, so the
heats arranged. with the first eight horses
In each Qualifying for the final.
The conditions OF the race were unique
In the history OF the American turf. The
contest provided for a handicap dash race,
open to all %trotters with marks of 2:15 or
better. the slowest horse being placed one
fourth OF a mile behind the wire and the
other Handicapped to the rear, according
to their past performances The purse OF
$4,000 was split up, $4,000 going to the
winner. $1,000 to the second horse, 5000
TO the third, $500 to the fourth, 1850 to
the fifth and 1900 to the sixth. The two
scratch horses, or those set farthest back
in the field in the two heats, were SO.
noma Girl and Sweet Marie.
The conditions for the start OF the race
were entirely unusual, the horses all being
placed at q fixed position ard required 10
remain there, practically at a standstil,
until the field was sent away. At each
mark was placed a Judge, who was in d.
rect communication by means of a wire
and push button. with the principal starter
In the middle Of the track. and II was ar
ranged that as soon as each Judge found
his horse on the mark and ready to start
he should push the button. When the
principal starter found that all the signals
had been dropped, arrangements called for
was considerable curiosity as 10 the out
come OF the new starting method, as II
was thought that 1t might mark a new
era in the sport.

AMERICAN TROTTING
DERBY
Intense Interest I'm Novel Race 10
5000 stake To-day.

READVILIsE, Mass, Aug. 2A-The great
harness event of the year. the American
trotting derby, with a purse OF $4,000 as
an incentive, will be held tomorrow on the
Readvtlle track In connection with the
second day OF the grand circuit with condi
lions which make the event unique In the
history OF horse racing in this country.
Forty-four harness horses, most OF them
well known, are entered for the event and
will compete, not on equal terms, but on
a system Of handicap.
The slowest of the horses will start from
the three-quarters pole, or a quarter be-
hind the wire, and the faster ones 500 feet
in the rear, all the horses leaving their
marks at the sound of a big bell from
practically a standsttll, instead OF scoring
side by side for the wire. AS the field is
believed to be too large to send away at
the same time the race will be decided with
two preliminary heats, with eight horses
to qualify for the final. which will be held
late in the afternoon. The heaviest handi-
capped horses In the race are Sweet Marie
and Sonoma Girl. The conditions Of the
race are so novel as to lead drivers and
owners to believe that past performances
are not to be considered in estimating the
results. The fastest horses will have large
fields through which to fight their way.
There 10 great interest in the race, not
only among the owners and drivers, but
among the general horse loving public, and
II Is believed that IL the race proves a sue

country and make 1t immensely attractive,
