whether they liked II or not.
II was a gala day at vlnton park and
Pas new stands were filled. Kelley was
chosen to administer the dose and he did
II in the latest fashion. He pitched mag
nificent bah all the way through and al
lowed but five hits and passed but one.
While his support looks bad on the dope
sheet. some brilliant catches and stops
were made.
Lincoln's four runs were all the result
Of errors and bad ones at that. In the
third inning Pritchett singled and in try
ing to catch him leading off too far at
first, Kane let the ball get by him and
Pritchett clFcled the sacks. In the eighth
Farthing hit a g~rass-cutter which scooted
between Kings legs, and Waldron scored
him with a triple. Davidson hit a long
fly to Pendry and WaldrOn scored. In
the ninth inning Sohipke threw bad to
first on the first man up, and before the
ball was found Mason, who had hit for
Harris, was on third. He scored on Prt-
chett's long fly to Fisher.
Omaha started to score in the very first
inning when, with two out. WEIGH was
passed. WEIGH is now the head Of the
batter Of the Western league in the per
centage column and all pitchers fear his
new willow. He draws more passes than
any man in the league. Carson passed him

Z at the plate, but Pritchett preferred to play
for schipks and slugger Bill beat the
throw. Kane was caught mapping off
third.
Fisher Beats out Infiold Hit.
Fisher pulled off one Of his famous
stunts Of beating out an infield hit In the
third, and it resulted in a run. King drew
a pass, Welch flew out to Davidson, send
ing Fisher to third, and then the double
steal was worked by Fisher and King for
a run and It was a beaut. King did not
start to steal until Sullivan had thrown
the ball to Carson and then Fisher started
for home. An effort was made to catch
Fisher at the plate. but he beat the ball
by a magnificent slide.
The fourth inning was noted principally
for Slugger Bill knocking the ball over the
left field fence for a home run, but as the
skipper is such a noted slusger this only
attracted passing notice.
The game was cinched in the fifth inning
by four runs. Fisher started the fun with
a double to left and scored from second on
Kings safe bunt. A bad pair on the bases.

Kane sacrificed them on for a base. Re-
Numbering Schipke's home run In the
previous inning, Karsten passed him and
filled the sacks. Pendry's sacrifice fly to
Davidson scored King and Captain Franck
hit a double which scored WEIGH and
Schipke.
. Karsten started in bad form again In the
sixth, when. with one out and after Fisher
had singled, Karsten was stabbed and
Farthing sent in. Farthing is a nice young
chap who pitched this spring for the Ne
braska Wesleyan university team. He Is
tall and angular and a southpaw. He went
into the game at a critical stage, but de-
livered the goods. as all scoring stopped
forthwith.
The score:
