base Dal between hts chewers and brings
ness without fear OF being marched to
the Eleventh Street station. AS predicted
the base bali parade to boost the Sunday
base ball bill was distinct SUCCESS. Ap-
proximately thirty cars. filled TO their ca
pacity and then some. paraded around
the principal streets and then adjourned
at the Rourke base ball emporium. Mr..

by the board of dlrectors
Next Wednesday evening at p. IN. the
directors Of the Omaha Amateur asso-
citation will convene at the city hall. They
will undoubtedly have their hands full OF
new business this trip. because several
protests are on tho bill OF fare. the Nc
Andrews-Gantz case, the new constitution
will be read and approved and they have
some unfinished business held over from
their last meeting. Several teams have
been Grabbing about the diamonds. so
this matter will have TO be adjusted.
All Leagues Go Good.
Although some of the wiseacres pro-
dicted that we would have fifteen leagues
In the Omaha Amateur association. they
fell short five leagues. Ten leagues are
organized and going nicely, and from
present indications they will be on top
when the asbestos drops. Naturally some
of the teams that occupy the cellar berth
are a trifIe discouraged. yet none of
them have even murnfured relative 10

The latest acquisition 10 the local base
hall contingent is the Castle aggregation.
They represent the new Castle hotel and
are under the personal supervision OF
Charles Kane. Their leader has been q
base ball manipulation for some moons.
and because he Ia we'll informed relative
