Niohoff's home run poke over the left
field fence decided a twelve-lnnlng battle
at Vinton park in favor OF Des Moines,
before one OF the largest Saturday crowds
of the season. 1t was not the first offense
for the Russian count either, for In the
third inning he assisted most materially
in driving Lower to the stable when he
hit the bail over the same fence with two
on bases ahead OF him.
For three long hours the Rourkes and
HigKinses did battle for that game, and
during all that time the outcome was in
doubt so that scarcely a fan left the stands
until the Russian made his winning drive.
The game was so full of features that
something was happening all the while.
Such heavy hitting has seldom been seen
on an Omaha lot. Three home runs were
driven over the fence, two by Nlehoff and
one by WEIGH. The first six hits Omaha
made were for extra bases, but after the
seventh when Omaha tied the score, Miller
frightened UP and no more hits were made
until the eleventh, when Fisher singled.
story of Defeat.
Lower started to work for Omaha, and
for two innings 1t looked as though things
were going TO run smooth for him. Elk
cept for a base on balls, 1t was one, two,
three. In the third Lewis. the kid catcher
Des Moines recently secured from some
amateur team at Chicago, opened with a
double and Miller negotiated a sacrifice.
Dalton hit another double and Lewis
scored. Colligan grounded one to Franck,
who tossed the ball 20 tho skipper, but
Slugger Bill dropped II after he had
tagged his man. That was the beginning
of the trouble. Colligan went TO second
on a wild pitch and both he and Dalton
scored on Bader's single. Mattick walked
and Dwyer flew to King. Then came the
Russian, with his trouble-maker He
landed sauarely and boosted the ball over
the fence, driving two in ahead of him.
williams singled, but was caught trying
to steal second.
Omaha had made a run in the second
without a hit on Niehoff's error, Franck's
sacrifice on which schipke took two
sacks and Gondin's infield out. With
Des Moines five runs to the good the
Rourke family started the chase which
ended in the score being tied in the
seventh. Pendry hit a triple in the third
and scored on welch's double. Welch
scored on Schipke's sacrifice fly after
getting to third on bases on balls to
Kane and King.
In the fourth WEIGH hit the ball over
the right field fence for a homer. In
the sixth. with two out. Fisher walked
and Psndry Tailed him with a triple, but
WEIGH could not help Pendry along. King

MCPHAIL'S BAD ACCIDENT
Left Arm Caught in Corn Shredder. Hand and
Forearm Amputated

Jas. McPkail is patient at Memorial
hospital, Richmond, Va, where his left
arm was amputated between the wrist
and elbow last week. News of this sad
happening reached here Monday in a
letter written by Mr.. McPhail to his
business partner, Alderman Brosnahan.
AS briefly stated In the letter, Mr.. Nc
Phall was feeding corn shredder at the
time of the accident, the glove On his
left hand becoming caught in the revolv
ing rollers of the shredder The hand
and arm were drawn into the machinery
half way to the elbow before the ma
chlnery could be stopped. For twenty
minutes while the men were endeayorinp
to eXtricate the torn and broken arm
from the rollers of the shredder Mr..
McPhail suffered terrible agony. From
the field in which they were working to
Richmond was a drive of nine miles
which had to be taken, Mr.. McPhail
carrying the broken and horribly
lacerated left arm temporarily bandaged
to the hospital where he collapsed be-
fore being placed under chloroform on
the operating table. The accident hap
pened on the 9th inst, and at the time
the letter was written. nearly a week
later, Mr. McPhail was improvingq ute
rapidly. He says that the accident no
doubt was occasioned by his attention
at the time being taken by removing
dust from his eyes with his right hand,
so that his view OF the proximity of his
left hand to the machinery at the time
was obstructed
