and the fence patched up. Dixie or Bogatts
will throw the pills for the shady rascals
and Joe Adams will use his trusty left
wing for the Americans. Latest reports

scented something up at late hour last
night, or they might make connections

Record of Ted Cross.
Now. our former prize beauty. Ted Cross.
after two years retirement, has again
crawled under the tent. In 1905 he covered
one of the best records ever made by any
Omaha amateur twister. He only dropped
two games during the entire sea-
son. and he twisted at least two
games every week Fans that saw
him toss the spheroid for the Rod and
Gun club against the boys at Creighton
university are Of the opinion that this
season he is ripe for fast company II he
sticks around Omaha, of course, he will
have to go some to beat his old rep, but at
that he might win them all.
| IAN aboard for Hermann" That Is, the
Hooters OF southtown will board one Of the
! big iron boys for that jerk this a. m. with
the firm intention OF collecting some sweet
revenge for the defeat administered to
them by the Hermanites some moons ago.
On their last excursion the Hooters broke
even with Waterloo, Neb., taking the first
match in walk and dropping the second
scrimmage. In the last struggle Payne of
Waterloo sent several sharp pains through
the Hector tribe when he made a spec
tacular one paw grab just as the South
Omaha lads were figuring on icing the big
end of the score. Next Sunday the Hoe
tors will beat It for Paplllion Neb. L. c.
