OMAHA WINS DOUBLE BILL
Rourkes Cop Two Games from To-
peka Before Enormous Crowd.
ROY SANDERS HURLS ONE GAME
StorS Semi-Pro TwirIer Works in
Second Battle and Has No
Trouble winning from
Cellar Champions.

Sunday crowds in Omaha have a par
ticular fancy to double bills. The crowd
yesterday had an especial fancy toward
Yesterdays double bill for two reasons.
First the Rourkes copped both combats.
Second, Roy Sanders worked in the sec
ond game and trimmed the Kaws with
due ceremony and eclat. Roy showed he
had 1T in him by keeping the Kaw hits
well scattered and only in one inning
did they score on him. The score of the
first game was s to and the score of
the second, to g.
Red Styles started the first battle and
did very nicely except on two occasions
when he uncoupled wild pitches which
permitted Kaw runners TO score from
third. Red weakened a bit in the eighth
and was hoisted from sight, but the
Rourkes won the battle by nifty rally
in the final two rounds.
With the score a tie in the seventh
the Kaws made three runs in the eighth
and 1t looked like goodby combat. Such
was not so though, for Omaha came
back strong and tore off two runs. Krue-
ger walked but was forced at second by
krug. Thomson busted a double to
right and Thomas followed with another
in the same spot.
- NROurkes~ WIN IN Ninth.
The Kaws made one more off Dan Tip
pie In the ninth and Omaha's chances
weren't bright. Then Congalton beat out
an infield hit by masterful effort and
Ward poled double to center. Graham
went out, but Crosby hit one to TallIon,
who threw home to Waite, who, in turn
let the pill trickle through his legs and
Conny and Ward counted. With the
score tie Marty Krug ripped off
screaming drive to right, scoring Crosby
from second and marking the winning
run.
The second battle was Sanders from
the start, Bicycle Reisigl started to pitch
Tor the kaws. The Bicycle suffered a
punetured tire at the start Like mad

Freddie Welsh, new lightweight
champion of the world, by virtue Of
n Of those British decisions ION
points, is another one Of the class of
fighters the fans love to call a gen
tleman pugilist". He is not rough and
ready, burly, uncouth, vulgar, nor
drunken. In fact, were it not for his
one tin ear" and his great nervou
ehergy, he might pass ordinarily for
anything but a fighter.
With the victory Of Welsh vegetari-
anism will get a boost. Welsh las al
ways claimed to be a vegetarian,
though many persons have SUSPECTED
he did it for advertising purposes. He
insisted he lived mostly on peanuts.
He was generally believed till he was
caught a few months g in a quiet
Los Angeles roadhouse stufiing away
a large chicken with the same ardor
that Jack Johnson would display.
When he came to the United States
he was a rubber in Browns gymnasi-
UNI on T~wenty-third street, New York
city. He did odd jobs for a long time,
and there acquired a taste for boxing.
Learning a little about it he went u
through the country and managed to
make his living by fighting. After
several years he became pretty well
known. He went to England and won
kllS DA4LlSll 1871" SlSHL Sllo1llPlOl40hlp'
Then along came Matt Wells, another
Britisher, and too it from him. Welsh
made another trip to the United
States and again going back to Lon
don he fought Wells and regained his
championship.
He has been fighting a long tAme;
his muscles have begun to show traces
of stiffening, and few experts believed
he would be as fast as he was in the
past. They, therefore, picked Richie
to beat him. But Welsh was evident
ly as good as ever in the London fight.
Maybe peanuts nave had something to
do with his ability to hold his form SO
long.
He is a very clever boxer and has a
dazzling way of holding and blocking
the heavy ~infghters. But he doesn't
hit hard. He taps rapidly and sets
away. The British call that fighting,
but in the United States Welsh has
never been popular. He didn't have
the punch, and American fight fans
refuse to take very seriously a fighter
who does nothing but peck away at
his opponent piling up points,
1t is the general opinion of Ameri-
can experts that Welsh will lot hold
his title long, not if he will consent
to meet Richie in a thirty or forty
round fight,

PETERS ENJOYING
HIS VACATION

Grand Forks, N. D., July 11.-Peters,
the big catcher for the Flickertail ball
team, who was suspended for ten days
from the club on a charge of loafing,
is expected to arrive in the city today.
Peters was suspended Thursday by
Manager Kavanaugh without pay, and
also fined $50. He Sent word yesterday
that he would spend his vacation" in
Grand Forks.
Peters has been a favorite among
local ball fans, and great surprise was
expressed by many when they heard
of his suspension. Manager Kava-
naugh, however, is certain that Peters
has not given his best services of late,
and thinks that a short layoff will be
great many stories being circulated,
some of which If spread around would
do much harm to Peters and the Grand
Forks club, if true: One is to the eff
feet that Peters has been playing into
the hands of other teams. There are,
| however, many loyal supporters of the
catcher, who believe that his poor
showing of late Is due merely to the
fact that he Is out of form and will
come back strong before long.
Sampsoi will do duty behind the bat
Sampson will do duty behind the ba
son will hold doWn the first sack as
usual. Manager says Lndt
the team has got to play better ball
or there will be something else STIR
ring. While nothing definite has been
decided upon, it is believed that there
may be a still further shake-up in the
Flickertail camp.
Manager Kavanaugh stated last
evening that he is looking for another
pitcher, and when he gets a good line
on a man he will sign him up at once.
1t was planned by the local manage
ment to place Brennan, who was re-
Gently released, back in the line-up
again, but he has signed up with the
Muscatine club in the Central league.

Not a zip. Not a peep. Not a whis-
per nor a murmur. We have dropped
back into fifth place from second in
three days, but the fans are not wor-
rying. Every game has been a battle
from start to finish and If Superior

The race in the Northern league
and the race in the American ~associa-

both leagues there are seven clubs that
are fighting for the pennant. In both
there is one weak sister. In the
Northern it is Fort William. In the
association it is st. Paul, and by the
way, the Fort William team is own

Trade Wants to Get

Unglaub of the Fargo-Moorhead team

Unglaub was particularly displeased

Weird Contest Taken
From G~raingrowers at
Superior Yesterday

Superior, July 11.-Rotten tactics by
Superior rooters, a raw decision by
Umpire Olson and considerable hard
luck all combined to defeat the Grain
growers in a hard-fought game which
carried through the thirteenth inning
yesterday.
4 With the score tied, S and S, in the
thirteenth, Shortstop Cullis hit a lone
fly to left field, and at the same time
an enthusiastic rooter fire a cracker
box filled with sand toward Scholl. The
box of SAND reached the left fielder
first, and the fly was good for a base
He continued to second, however, and
although thrown out by a safe margin
he was given the benefit of Umpire
Olson's decision and a sacrifice by
Mulvey brought him home.
About half the G~raingrowers' aggre-
cation got in bad with the umpire in
the last two innings, and Weidell,
Wertz, Unglaub and Dye were bench
ed in the order named. Superior's
good luck was with the team in the
fifth, when two scores were negotiated
without a hit or an error.

have been gathered in by a slight eff
fort. AS a result Dye was fined SO.
Greisell pitched a fine game and de-
served to win.
1t was because the team failed to
come across with a timely punch in
the attack, that the second game went
by the boards. The first man to bat
got on, on five different innings of that
game, and three times there were men
on second and the boys failed to bunt.
Maupin outpitched his opponent and
with better support in the attack
would have Won easily.
Superior fans were greatly impress
ed with the work of the Graingrowers
and believe they are one of the teams
that will make a strong bid for the
pennant, despite the three reverses
