The Corn Buskers wont out to McCormlck
park yesterday afternoon with tnurdor In
their oycs.
When they returned In the gloaming they
had the Lambs' fleece nt tholr girdles ,
The White Sox wont Into the struggle in
tending to mnko It three strntRhl , but Mr.
Siebcl has hli little drop with him nnd was
perfectly Kup [ > orted besides. The only error
inado wn.i his own , n wldo throw to catch
\Vnlsh when ho stole second , but instead of
effecting this It lot him to third.
It was a game to look nt but , from n Sionx
City point of view only. The audience was
small but not us enthusiastic ns it would have
Tjcen had the score been the other way.
Some thought the Whlto Sox might have
played bolter than they did.
Bo that as it may , they fought hard and
died hard , but they would have yet been
ullvo could they have hit a little bit.
But they couldn't.
Siobol's twirling was too much for them ,
notwithstanding ho had nbout ns much pnco
na n hearse , and just floated thorn over as big
ns street cars.
Baker was strong too , but n bit erratic.
Still If the Lambs hud only punched "oni n llt-
tlo bit ho would have won his gamo.
They only got four hits off of him , nnd four
lilts Won't win ono game in twenty.
There Is but ono grain of consolation to begotten
gotten out of the affair and that is that Um
pire Knight caught Jokoy Strauss trying to
steal a ball. Ho made him cough un before
the entire throng and of course that- pleased
everybody.
The Huskcrs were the llrst to break the
ice , and they did it In the llrst inning.
After'tno Lambs had been retired in ono ,
two , three order Poormnn took tlio club.
Walsh threw him out nt llrst. Then Schcl-
beck got his base on balU nnd went to third
on Nicholson's two-baggor. Shannon's error
let him In and put bwnrtwood on llrst and
Nick on third. A moment later , by n nulck
throw , Donnelly caught Swart nt second and
Morrlssey struck out. Strauss closed the
inning with nn out at llrst.
Again It was ono , two , three for the Lambs ,
nnd the dose was repeated live straight
times.
In the fourth the Huskcrs made their second
end and luM tally.
Walsh's error gave Van Dyke alifo , and
stealing second ho cnmo homo on Siobol's
single , after Genius had wnftcd. Poornmn
got his base on balls nnd the sides began to
lower , but "Old Cy" nipped Hlobol In nu at
tempt to steal third , aud Wooden-Footed
Schelbeck struck out.
In the sixth the Lambs got tholr ono little ,
measloy run.
Walsh inado n hit , stele second nnd took
third on Sicbel's wild throw , aud after Don
nelly had gone out at llrst scored on Baker's
twp-sacitor.
A wild pitch planted Norman on third ,
mid Twltchell got his base on balls. But the
next two men , Hnlllgun and Newman , were
Infants In Siobol's ' hands.
They ignoramously struck out.
Newman got In the fray In the fourth by
replacing "Old Cy , " who had n keg of nails
knocked off of his throwing linger uy a foul
tip.In
In the eighth the Lambs had n superb
chnnco to pull out the game , but they were
unequal to the emergency.
Walsh led jiff with a snfo bunt , but was
doubled yp nj second on Donnelly's puorllo
punch. * r

suit , with Kaymond nnd a good lick
by Stafford did the same for Howe. The
score then stood ti to U. Gcodonough inado
the only tally for the Apostles in the last
half of the second.
For four innings after that only ono score
was made and that was credited to Jack
KQWO. Ho got his base on bulls , got second

In the seventh Inning the Fanners piled up
four moro runs. Traflloy , Wilson nnU

nnd nave It n resounding whncu thnt sent It
far beyond the roach of the center Holder. ItU
kept on rolling until it was finally stopped by
tbo fence , and meantime Jack made a homo
run nnd sent Cllno und Raymond in ahead as

did a star piece of acting Saturday night , but
it was behind the scones and only profes
sionals witnessed It , Because Sarah's
fuvorito servant , the Turkish Angola , per
sisted In coming on the stngo against the
orders of Manager Rouvler , two of the scone
shifters gave him a blade eye and made an
ugly cut on his forehead. " When Bornhardt
learned of the assault , she descended upon
the four scene shifter * like n living fury nnd
poured forth n storm of French expletives
that would have withered them had they
understood the Gaelic tongue , As it
was , the only thine they caught
was her demand for n revolver ,
and ns she looked us sno docs when fingering
the dagger before ktlllnir Kscarpin , .thoy nil
fell back in nffright. . *
Then the members of the company rushed
to Sarah's assistance nnd ranged themselves
beside her on the stago. The sccnp .shifters
also assembled in nil their strength nnd for
throo-quarters ot an hour there was Just us
pretty n row ut the opera house as ever oc
curred nt a Denny brook fair. Meanwhile
the audience was waiting and wondering why
the performance did not go on. Sarah re
fused to continue unless every man Jack of
the scene shifters was relegated to the deepest
pits of oblivion and tied thoro. Finally the
men who had beaten Angola were removed
by a special policeman and the play went on.
Now Sarah says she. Is afraid to go out for
fear of being mobbed by the free American
scouoshlftora.

twelve thousand miners in the atuto arc
likely to join the demand for the eight-hour

Is probable , In which event there will bo
something of n coal famine. President Scott

local organizations mid getting ovorythlug
In readiness for the great strueglo. In an
swer to Inquiries ho said !
"Yes , sir ; nearly every miner In Iowa will
drop his pick end shovel on thomphtof April
I0 : ! and will not resume work ngnlu until
eight hours uro recognized ns a day's work
by every operator hi the union. "
"IIo\v many men In Iowa will go out ! "
"I do not at present know the exact jiuin-
bor , but It will not bo far from 10,000. "
"Is the stnto well orffanfred and will the

"Yes , sir ; wo Imvo boon organizing the
miners In the stnto Into two classes of local
unions , a secret class , which Is very largo
and inllucntml aud secret from tha public ,
and an organization which , although large , is
not ] widespread. In this movement all the
miners will strike nt once , and the result can
beol nothing but the establishment of tha
eight hour movement. "

that a coal famine will result. There nro in
tlio neighborhood of live hundred or six hun

Kmincnt Scientists Dispute the As
sertions of Prof. Ijanglcy.
WASHINGTON' , April 27. [ Special Telegram
to TUB BEE. ] Prof. Laneloy's recent asser
tion that the problen of human ( light through
tbo air had been solved has aroused a num
ber of protests from 'eminent scientists. Ono
of these comes from Prof. Ilazen of the
signal oflico. Ho says there nro insurmount
able obstacles to perfecting a flying machine
which Prof. Langley and other scientists
will never bo able to overcome. Prof. Ilazen
states tbo obstacles thus : 1. It is impossible
to use the food which the bird uses to do-
velopo power by any contrivance which can
over bo invented that will glvo one tithe of
the effect that the bird got * that Is to say ,
while possibly a spring or other application
of force , by using up an enormous
amount of energy In n very short time , might
momentarily Imitate a' bird , yet the motive
power In snoh case would Em very rapidly
used up. 2. It is impossible by the most dell-
cato mechanism and most perfect wings to
equal the perfection and adaptability of the
bird in its own element. ! ) . There Is n limit
of weight bovond which It Is impossible for n
bird to ) ly. It is probable that the ostrich
had the power of llicht in ages- gone by , but
when its environment became such that it
did not need to use its wings to escape from
onctnlcs , or when It began to grow lareer
from any favoiing clrcumstonccs It used Its
wings loss and less , so that no\V'it is entirely
incapable of ( light. It is , probable that the
condor , weighing fifty pounds and with a
spread of wings of fourteen feet , Is very near
the limit of weight : , , ! , jvo may conclude , then ,
that wo can never i equal n bird , and hence
that n self-raising , 'solf-supporting and self-
propflling Hying rrijichino cannot possibly bo
built to carry n man-

General Horace Porter , orator of the day ,
delivered an eloquent nddrrss. Ho said In

was ushered into the world n being who was
destined to stand prominent. In the history of
his country , and whoso fmno was to reach
into the uttermost parts of the earth. Most
of the conspicuous characters In history hnvo
risen to prominence by grndunl advances ,
but Ulysses S. ( .taint C.UHO before the people
with n sudden bound. Almost the llrst siu'ht
caught of him was in the bla/u of his camp-
llros aud the Hashes of his guns those wintry
diiy.s nnd nignts in front of Donnclson. From
thnt time until the crowning triumph nt Ap-
pomattov ho was n loader whoso nnmo wiva
the harbinger of victory. From the Html
sheathing of his sword till his ashes were
lulu to test In yonder tomb ho was the chlof
citi/en of the republic and tlu great central
figure of theworld. .
"Tho history of his life savors moro of
romance than lonlity ; It seems uioro llko u
fabled tnlo of ancient dnys than the story of

tury. As light and shade produce the most
attractive olTects In a picture , so the singular
contrasts , tlio stranco vicissitudes , of his
eventful career surround him with mi In
terest which attaches to few characters In
historv.
"His rise from nn obscure llcutennut to the
command of the voU'ran armies of the great

of the untrodden west to the executive
mansion of the nation ; his sitting
at ono time in n little store

congressman from his district ; nt another
tune Htriding through the palaces of the 'Old

ri-iing and standing uncovered in his pro *
once ; tils humble birth In nn obscure town
scarcely known to the geographer ; hl.s
ngoni/.ing illness and courageous death in the
chief city of the country ho had saved , with
n nation's prayers breathed in his behalf
fiom every jiulpit and llresldo in the Jami.
Those nro some of the features of his mar
velous career which appeal to the ( inaginn-
lion , oxcita men's wonder nnd faspinato nil

Commander Freeman , who turned the llrst
spadoful of sod , snld : "Wo gather today
