FurChner Fired
by Pa Rourke
Big Pitcher Arrives in Omaha After
Receiving His Release at
Denver.

Furchner, who was taken on trial by
AmPa .Rourke from Cinnati, has been re-
leased.
He pitched one game at Wichita in the
opening series and lost by a score of s to 8,
allowing six hits, passing two and striking
out two He started a game at Denver,
Thursday, and was relieved by Hollenbeck,
after five men had scored in the first in
ming.
Pa evidently feels that the twirler, who
made such a good record with Sioux City
in 1908, is not able to hit up the pace he
did two years ago, and does not want to
take any chances.
Pa Rourke obtained Furchner from Gin
cinnat this spring. He paid $1,000 for him,
with the understanding that If he did not
show up in good shape within thirty days
he was to be returned to Hermann at the
price paid for him.
He has the appearance Of being in shape
and has had but little work and may yet
show the same speed that made him IA
nous in 1908.
Just where Furchner may land is a pre-.
diction that is hard to make, but It is
thought that Sioux City still has an eye
on him and may give him trial FurchneI
left Saturday for Sioux City to have a
talk with the management of that club
Who will take the place Of the big one
is not known here, but It is surmised thai
a pitcher will be obtained from Pittsburg
as Pa has one coming from that club in
place Of Dunkin.
Furchner arrived in Omaha Saturday
morning from Denver and says the Rourke,
arc playing good ball. but are unlucky ir

Says Lesson is Taught.
Special Officer c. E. Brents of the United
States Indian service said Saturday morn
ing: I'VE hope that the lesson given the
/ saloon men OF Omaha this week will effect
the result of putting them on their guard
| against the sale Of liquor 10 Indians. The
government does not wish to persecute
these men unfairly, but IT does propose to
prosecute the violation OF the federal laws
| relative to the sale Of liquor to Indians.
1t has got to stop. II the federal law is
not sufficient the state law will be in
voked. The flimsy excuse that the saloon
man did not know that the party to whom
| the liquor was sold was an Indian Will
| not go. A campaign Of but few days has
! shown the government that the efforts OF
certain saloon men to dispose OF their
wares regardless Of the laws is paramount
to their consideration of discretion, and II
they fail to observe the proprieties Of the
occasion, they will have to take the oonse
quences."
The work of the special officers il
