opening day proved the writer's judgment good, al

According to the report Omaha fell down in the
second inning, OF which the scribe wrote: This

of the piCkpockot is their absurd simplicity. The

parently innocent action that precedes the purlonng

"Out On a Foul Bound

Several players recorded being out ION
foul bound TO catcher" and it is set down that
"BandIes clean hit into the field brings in Baeys
score" Then Bandle went and stole second with
out raising a row, but when he tried to also steal
third the Dubuque catcher threw him out. At
point reporter that Refs hit long fly which
was firmly seized by Bailey" or other captures OF
flies the words used, taken in in splendid STYLE"
would indicate some pride I'm good playing.
Here's a picture that might well do credit to any
field today: y. Gleason hits long fly TO left field,
Furlong's left but he makes grand throw
ing himself into the air after the ball. when he finds
it Impossible to keep his feet and securing IT, holds
it aloft he lies on the ground-one of the finest
plays OF the game"
Commenting on the result, the reporter said:
Both pitchers we're very effective Five out on
strikes and eleven flies speaks well for Whitney's
work and nine strikes and eight flies quite
well for Refs A lusty shout from Captain Burke, in
at least two instances yesterday, would have pre-
vented errors by the Omahas and bases for the Du-
buques"
The Omaha manager, f. r. Balch, is handed
compliment for the ground arrangements which were
