The Omahogs got to jackson, who
essayed the tw1rling role for Cooley

sued a three baSer to Fox. and two
walked. This with an error by Kahl
at second base allowed the three runs
which Pas WOODY onss anna ssed during
the game Fugate succeeded Jackson
in the third and the acrobatfc and con-
tortioniStic stunts OF the Nebraskans
began. It was all off with the flippant
Foxes and although they exercised ali
OF their instructive cunning they were
run to earth in due time.
In only two innings did four men
face Fngate. The rest of the time
they expired in regular one two three
order.
In the fifth inning we copied our
first hit. Kahl got it. Then Fugate
drew transportation. Wcoley champed
the bit for time but at last damned
out a two beaner which scored Kahl
and jackson. Reilly walked but was
nailed at the middle bag on Norridon's
choosing. Thonason and Pencil flew
to ShotIen.
The locals got a hit via Wooiey in
the seventh but it was only a momen-
tarv glimpse of the sun. Clouds soon
rifted across the opening and gloom
continued in the hearts of 1000 fans.
1t was in the ninth that the great
joy came into our hearts. Abbott got

stole second. Kahl chopped. Landreth.

into the game that upset more or less
Nebraska philosophy and scored Abbott.
The game was tied up. Wooley skied
to WEIGH. Reilly hit and Landreth did
the high dive act between second and
third. Sh:pke handled the ball and
should have thrown to first brit he made
the mistake by trying to
run Landreth down. Landreth
dived, ShiDke fell over him.
Cyrus arose and wrathfully made his
way to third. Thomson used his mile
age book and Pennell was waiting at
the plate for a chance TO paste one
when McCafferty, who had succeeded
Mr.. Hanson in the ninth round, heaved
a wild one at the plate J. Gonding
tried to spear it but failed and Cyrus
raced homeward with the bacon under |
his arm.

Clouting the ball steadily and for ex-
ira bases the Cooleys Sunday took an
easy game from the Rourkites by the
score of 10 to s. The hits were well
punched, coming four in the second and
fifth and two in the sixth. The scores
came also. kaufman had the Rourl<es
at his mercy as OF old and Omaha
used two pitchers in an effort to stem
the tide against them. Cooley's men
were going at a good clip and the Ne
braskans were the easiest sort of pick
1rg.
Omaha dented the rubber once in the
1lrst when King doubled after two were
down and Kane singled him into the
run cO.umn. Reilly grabbed Welch's
fly
Tbs same thing occurred in the sec
ond in that two we're down when the
run was terminated. Cadman SMASHED
one good for two bags and scored on an
error ard ShettonS single. The VISITORS
did nothing in the third but in the
fourth negotiated 4 run on Corridors
drive over the left field fence. In the
sixth Kane tripled and was sacrificed
home by WEIGH who lifted a. long fly
TO PenneH. Again in the seventh the
Rourkes added one to their small col
lection on Abbott's error. base on
balls. Wooley's had muff and Shotton's
second safe one for the afternoon. There
was no further danger of the Hogs
Scoring.
The locals batted round in tine Sec
ond inning, sending five of the kind that
sets the crowd wild to the score board
reserved for returns from this inning.
Kunkle flew to Shotton but Kerns
bdtchered one. Abbott got his start
from the mileage book. He was safe

The locals did not get to first in the
third but in the fourth started strong.
Iahl started from the free pass bureau.
Kaufman singled and Bobby moved up.
Wooley advanced him to third. Thorn

killed Kahl at the plate. Pennen tri-

Thomson and LandFeth scored. Kun

Topeka added one to the local belt in

caught off first and finally tagged by

Notes on Side Lines.

Our big hitters were not doing much
to Hanson Saturday while Iowa Jack
was making q menagerie of the Oma-
hogs. It was Hanson's wildness that
caused him so much trouble. At that
he always came out of II and there is
a chance that changing pitchers in the
ninth inning cost Fox The game. 1t was
one OF these occasions in which a
man plays bunch at the wrong time
McCatterty is the Liucolnite who had
such lot on US last year and beat us
badly the morning of July Fourth. He
joined the Hogs here yesterday.
This cepartme must confess to
more or less admiration FOR Fox. Last
year Fox visited Topeka first with Lin
coin, when Guy Green was trying to
show how little he knew about base
pail. A dislike was conceived for Fox
IN many places for this reason. The con-
duct of Fox since that time does not
