.It was cold and dark and dreary Monday ,
nnd a miniature berrh-p pond occupied the
diamond , so Captain Donnelly wisely de
cided on no game.
Yesterday , however , everything was
brlpht and entrancing nt McCormlck park.
The mellow warmth of summer once moro
Immersed field , grandstand nnd bleacher In a
tnlnglemont of such soft nnd soothing hues
ns living painter could never bo rash enough
to Imitate. Not a Heck of vapor marred tbo
blue expanse above , and the winds from the
south were as gentle and ns sweet as u buoy's
breath. The air was full of pearl aud topaz ,
and the peaks aud ancles of the golhlc cot
tages loomed up over tlio north Held fence
like the turrets of an old baronial castle ,
while on the eait Parmeloe's maples swayed
languidly , and the whole picture was much
like that of a piece of theatrical scenery.
How could the Lambs lose on a day llko
this I
In appreciation of this lovely mutorologlcal
condition , n handsome representative crowd
was out , among whom were many ladles. In
fact the rascrved department was a veritable
parterre of brightness , color and beauty , and
It couldn't have been anything else but the
presence of the fair oncn that spurred the
Lambs on to such a pattern exhibition of the
great national pastime.
Among the ladles present might be men
tioned the names of Mrs , Frank Colpotzcr ,
Mrs , Frank Johnson , Mrs. Arthur Reming
ton , Mrs. Harry McCormlck. Mrs. Ulysses
McDanlels , Mrs. Tom Godfrey , Mrs. Hussey
nnd Mrs. S. O. V. Grlswold , and Misses
Batch. McClelland , Bishop and Barlow
With his characteristic punctiliousness
King Clnffney tapped a new ball at precisely
I o'clock , and Harry Foamier , 11 misguided
youth from Oswego , N. Y. , took his position
In the llttlo suaro in the center of the diamond
mend ,
Ho was full of hope and confidence , nnd
prunes you could see them nil In his smiling
countenance ami ho swore that ho would
win the game or pitch his arm off.
Ho kept his word. Ho loft his good south
paw hanging on the fence to mould and
wither and classical o In the suns and winds
of summer. You can see it there this after
noon , right on the uacoud post to thu left of
the carriage gate.
Harry Is rather a nlco looking boy , with n
sort of Colorado Maduro complexion and a
moustache that looks llko a wisp of hay. But
ho can't pitch quoits , that is , some limes.
Taking a pony of oatmeal and water Cap
tain Donnelly took his position at the bat.
Ho never vald a word but stood and looked
at Harry in a way that made his heart boat
thick nnd fast. *
Ho made four failures to put her over and
the captain look possession of lirst.
Then Jocko Halllgan pressed his stlclc
against a beautiful drop and a safe ono wus
the result.
Then oil the ladles clapped tholr hands ,
but whether it was because Halllgan had
made n hit or because "Old Cy" came out , I
won't sny.
Anyway ho smiled as If It was meant for
hltn and swinging his omnibus polo ho throw ,
Into It a certain veiled cadence , of half dis
tant , half familiar tenderness , no fan , what'
over his ago or condition , has over boon
known to resist.
Tbo ball fell amidst the gamopctalous bios
soms at White Wings' fout , and before ho
could gather U up and hurl It In , the captain
was across the rubber.
Then everybody shouted , save agcntlcmnn
and lady from Denver , who occupied front
seats In the reserved circle , and they t > cowleu
and the lady said Sut was ' 'nothing but a
great long-legged , gangling gosling. "
That was decidedly unpurty.
ilut ono run was nil thcro was in it. Billy
O'Brien embraced the Commodore's fly , the
Deacon forced Jocko nt third and White
WHIRS took care of Walsh's high ono.
The Mountaineers' half wns short lived.
McClcllan sent ono to Clarke , and Donnelly
slninncd both Werriek and Tebeau out nt
lirat.
lu the second , Dad Clarke , who were his
Crimean Jacket oil through thQ fray , coaxed
n base of balls out of Harry , and Old Traf's
sacrificial push sent him to second nnd nn
error by White to third. The Denver short
stop counterbalanced thu blunder n moment
later , however , by firing Dud out at the plate ,
the lattorhavlng attempted to score on a ball
loosely returned to the pitcher.
That was bad.
Eltoljorg fought bumble boos with his club
and the slilo was out.
Denver deposited another egg In the mar
ket basket , and the Lambs returned.
Hurry was layiue for Jocko , and hn curled
them around his neck In such an exasperat
ing wav that ho Just wouldn't hit 'em. "Old
Cy" followed , only to give White Wings another -
other p. o.
Two men out , and everybody thought the
Jig was up. But baseball is uncertain.
The Commodore was presented with Ilrst.
and the Deacon sallied forth. Ha handled
his bat nervously nnd great globules of per
spiration began to mottle his brow when ho
lot two good ones whip past him without as
much as saying "how dy do. "
Then he braced himself I Ills club de
scribed a yellow circle in the air , thcro was n
fulminating crash and the sphere wont out
against the right Hold fence like a thousand
of brick.
"A regular rectangular paralloloplpedonl"
cried a lad from Creighton college , and ns
Larry came marching homo the bleachers
yelled as If they were paid by the day.
Wnlih hadn't done anything very'enthusi
astic yet , and before the uproar had subsided
ho tilt her a jolt himself. It was a slnuln. hut
the Deacon cnmo trotting In on It.
Clarice's out ended thn Innimr.
It was tlio same old story for Denver.
The fourth wus fruitless for both sides.
Trartloy How out to Willlo O'Brien , but Kltol-
Jorg made n hit , yet It amounted to nothing ,
for the Chippy throw thu Captain out at
ilrst. and Willlo attended to Halllgan alone
uud single-handed ,
And so , you see , Wlllio made nil throe of
the put-ouU. Not bad for a boy , was it }
For his side White Wings led off with one
of hU aromatic rmht-llold drives , n wild
pitch gave him second aud he .stole third.
The gentleman and his wife from Denver
began to work their mandlbula mechanism.
They knew ( ioorulo would score.
But Georglo didn't ,
Donnelly eat Curl's Uy , and the Deacon
flred White out at first. Teen Chippy Mc-
CJarr hit ono ni a now spring suit down'to the
Captain. It wns so hot that it burnt up the
chain line a * it * pd along , ami It looxcd as
safe ns a bet on 'Icniiy.
But don't you over moke a mistake , that
Donnelly luit la a cuckoo 1
He made a backward dive , throw out that
dexter tin of his , and snatched the ball right
out from a stream of fiamo and smoke , aud
before you could thlnlc what your name was
ho shot U over to "Old Cy , " rutting off the
llttlo bird by about the thickness of a piece
of ham ID a railroad sandwich.
.Oh my l Oh mol what an uproar there was
at thntv A holler factory wouldn't have been
lu It.
In the jnxt inulug Harry was convinced
tbal. ho was only an ordinary iwirler.
"Old Cy" took flrst lwnu.se Harry curled
them everywhere but over the plate. Thu
Commodoru drove cue safely out into right ,
op which Sut wont to third and Larry to second
end on thu throw in.
"Hoy ! hey I heyl'i shouted the Jubilant
throng.
Aiitl they kept up the muito when flrlflln
did Ilkeso , and Incraaied Its volume when
Walth did ahvlse. Of course Sut and tno
Commodore had ambled in.
A lull occurred when Clarke tapped n llttlo
ontto lUrrr , and Harry swltoluMl-hlm off at
Ilr t , but when Old Traf sent the uphero far
from the mudulng crowd , the din crew worse
tban ver , fir on this hit the Deacon and
Joilo coruJ. F.lteljcnr , who bMidlod his
stick something like an old woman sweeping
cob-webs from the cclllne , made his second
strike-out , llosnld ho didn't want to hurt
Harry's feeling. Tlio captain , howoior , was
not so commiserate , and. be added another
safe ono to the long line , and the ex-Alliance
catcher ran homo.
Halllgan's long ono to White Wings cnmo
lust In tirao to spare seven or eight bundled
I > coplo n ftlego ot bronchitis.
But wasn't It axhlllaratlngi
I tell you that butnan nature demands n
llttlo excitement , nnd thcro Is a tonic in Just
such n hitting strcau ai that. It is bebrlfu-
gnl. carminative , lifo-prolonglng ,
Isn't 111
Tula was too much for Denver , so she came
In nnd took a couple of runs herself.
They were gifts , both of them , for they
didn't maka a hit tti the inning.
WIIIlo O'Brien hit , a long aim out to Dad ,
nnd Dad muffed It. and Willlo swung clear
round to third on the mistake. Then KilJIo
mudo another onu and Lolibock was allowed
to hrcatho , nnd a llttlo later on ho ran lu after
Gcorgio on Fournler's sacrifice.
And maybe the eutoninn ! and lady from
. ) cuvur didn't make the earth nnd ntmos-
) lup3 vibrate then. You could a-hoard 'em
a mile t
McClelland nnd Werrlckworp easily dls-
losed of.
Hlght here Harry and Lohbock both
toruiod the bench , and Mr. Kcefo , who used
10 spell his name with an O when ho worked
11 tbo brickyard at Lowell , and Sohool
'cachor Ue.vnolds took their places.
Tbo change worked well , for the sixth was
desert for the Lambs , but In their half , the
ilountalneors scored again. U hltn Wlnga
uado nnothorsafo one , u wild pitch lot him
, o second , and an error bv "Old Cy , " the
Irst one he 1ms made since 1SH ) , allowed him
, o tally.
Clarke landed ono out of roach In the next
ind on Traflloy's sacrifice wont to second.
Whlto's error gave KltelJurK a.show for his
white ally , and on Donnelly's and Halllgan's
ilU they scored.
In her half Denver took ono moro on n hit
by Kcufc nnd a threo-bauKcr by Mr. Werriek ,
onco'tho hnro of Louisville.
The eighth and ninth were botli blanks for
bo Lambs , but thu Mountaineers got homo
three more , two In thu eighth nnd ono in the
ninth , but as long us they didn't win the
game , what's the use of tolling how they
did It.
I will add , hownvcr , that Traf assisted In
ns brilliant a double In thoelghth as you over
saw , and the ox-LouUvllUuu knocked out
another ttireo-sackor In the ninth.
That's nil. Once moro this afternoon. The
score :

LINCOLN , Neb. , May 20.Special [ to THE
Bui : . | Everybody played ball today. It was
ono of these scientificgames in which errors
nro few and hits clean , with n sprinkling of
brilliant plays. And the Farmers pounded
Johnny Sowdors until It gnvo the fans an ap
petite for supper.
Collins , poor fellow ! got mlo It all over to
day. Ho gave fiovoral rank decisions against
the locals , and Dave Uowo roasted him until
tno crowd , out of pity foi- the umpire , begged
him to stop. Carpenter made a remarkable
one-handed catch , and Cllno muffed n lly
while turning a sumorsault.
The Cowboys opened the ball In the second
inning , nnd Danny Steam * got In ono of his
old tricks. Ho made tlrst safely , -and on
Plckett's hit started for third. Stafford
made a great throw from center , heading off
his man , but Stearns ran over Raymond ,
knocking the ball out of his hand. Collins
declared it a go , nnd both runners scored on
n passed ball. In the seventh Carpenter's
two sacks. CUuo's muff of Cluusou's lly and
Manning's hit scored two more.
Hayuioud began business for the Farmers
lu the third with a hit. Brother Jack got u
Itfo on IClmor Smith's mull of hU lly and hits
by Burkett nnd Dave Kowo brought in three
runs. In the sixth singles bv Stafford and
Dambrough and a triple by Wilson carried
the Ilrst of the trio around the diamond. In
the seventh a base on balls nnd single by
Jack nnd Dave Uowo scored Cllno. Tom-
ney's grounder was Juggled by Plckett and
on Stafford's hit brothers Jack nnd Dave
sprinted homo. Thu Farmers played a beau
tiful game at bat In the ninth. Burkott muda
ono of his neatest bunts and beat the ball to'
first with tlmo to loaf. Dave Howe stuck
in a slnglo and both were advanced on one of
the prettiest .sacrifices by Tomnoy. Stafford ,
who has boon putting up a phenomenal bat
ting game for a pitcher , as usual found a hole
in the Intlcld and brought m the two run
ners.

IThcro was discord last ulht over the mor

The remains were at (5ring ft Hartley's un
dertaking rooms , where on inquest hud boon
told to ascertain the cause of death , which
took place at the Omaha medical Institute , nil
the particulars of which have boon related In
TUB BKH.
Last night Coroner Hnrrlgnu gave Heafoy
it Hoafoy an order for the body , but when
the young man who assists in embalming at
Hoafoy kc * Henfey's presented the order to
( trlng fe Hurtle ? , they refused to surrender
the remains. Mr. Grfng oald ho did not pro
pose to do the drudgery connected with the
case , nnd then when ho had the
remains all ready for Interment turn
the undertaking over lo some of Dr. Hnrrl-
gan's friends , simply to lot them get n pull at
the estate of the deceased. In his order for
the body Coroner Hurrliran said that Mr ,
Urlng .should present his bill for disinterment -
mont ami other services connected with the
case to DoUKhw county ,
" 1 don't see why I have to
look to Douglas county , " said Mr.
( Jrlng to n BKE roiwrtcr , "when
Dr. Harrigan holds $ JOO that belonged
to the deceased. 1 propose to look , to the
estate of this man , nnd Dr. Harrigan has n
part of thoostnto in his possession. "
Hnlf an hour after Mr , Grlng had refused
to surrender the body to Heafoy's young man
Coroner linrrlgan appeared In company with
the young man nnd nirulu demanded
the body. Mr. Gring had in
the meantime consulted n lowyor
and ho quietly but firmly informed Dr. Har-
rigau that the remains of the late Richard
Melody should not bo removed from the es
tablishment until some higher authority than
that of the coroner should demand thorn. A
sort of Brutus nnd Cassius dialogue then
took placo. in which some sparks of temper
wore displayed , but the bent soon cooled and
satisfactory explanations were made.
Dr. Harrigan said that the reason ho de
cided to remove the remains to Hoafey it
Hcafoy's was that ho understood Mr. ( .ring
to say that they could not keep thu remains
much longer and as hu ( Harrigan ) wished to
have some of the relatives of the dead man
present before burial , it might bo necessary
to keep tlio remains several days He thought
that He.ifoy & Heafov could pn ervo

nnd ho simply wished to relieve Grlng ft

But the latter llrm feltporfeetlv competent
to keep the remains and Mr. Gring denied
that ho had ever said they could not preserve
the body as long as necessary.

< CHICAGO , May .U Ono reduction follows
close on the hocla of another In eaU-bound
laiio and rail rnto.s. The drop lu wool rates
last Saturday was discounted on Monday by
the Central Vermont , which named n rnto of
IS cents ) > er 100 pounds on that commodity
from Chle-ago to Hotton , thereby prcuorvlng
Its agreed differential. The s'umo line re
duced Its Hour nnd grain rates toTi cents per
100 pounds , The same line reduced Its Hour
sixth class to Boston and common points
from Milwaukee from ' . ' .I to .i'J'j ' cents , and
the New York Central came forward with a
SO cent r.-.to from Milwaukee to Boston.
Today the Lctiigh Valley transportation
company put Into effect a ruto of 18 cents on
Hour , oil cnko and pig lend from Chicago to
Now York , ! > 0 cents to Boston , lit cents to
Philadelphia nud 10 cents to Buffalo. The
United steamboat company , which Is oper
ated with the Erlu road , has now Issued n
Joint Interstate tarllT on wool to take effect
May ; iO , making the rate from Chicago and _
Milwaukee ! ) ! ) cents to Now York , 1'J cents to "
Boston and ! ) ! cents , to Philadelphia. As this
meets the latest tariff of the Central Ver-
ment , the latter may soon bo expected to
make another reduction for the protection of
its differential. It would bo difilcult to
keep track of the ulmnges in grain
ratas , ns It Is evident that the
boat lines nro accepting whatever they can
got from day to day for the transportation of
corn and oats. Lake and rail lines seem to
Imvo decided that the quickest way to scrum
peace is to force rates down lo n non-paying
basis us soon as possible. In the meantime

Thu western roads are also In a stow In

commissioner's of the Western Tralllo asso

through rates from western points lo the
so'iboard on the basis of reductions made by
their eastern connections unless such reduc
tions arc in the form of regular published . . !
tariffs , duly filed with the Inti'r.stato com- ,

VICTORY FOU Tlti : Al.TOX.
The Chicago & Alton gained a complete
victory In the Western Passenger association
today by compelling other roads to yield to its
terms in regard to summer tourist nnd excur
sion rates. The result of the meeting after
n two days wrangle on the subject was the
adoption , without amendment or change , o
the resolutions originally Introduced by Gen
eral Passenger Agent Cnarlton , Those reso
lutions provide ! that summer tourist rates bu
twecn all points In the territory of the as
sociation for 18U1 cannot bo less than SO per
cent of the standard rates ; that the airroo-
mont bo amended so that no reduction for or
against the action In reducing the asrccd
basis for tourist rates within tlio territory of
the association shall bo considered by tha
chairman without the unanimous consent of
nil members ; that the rate from Chicago to
St. Paul or Minneapolis and return shall
not bo less than $30 and -Milwaukee
to these points and return not leds than $13.
It was further resolved that for the annual
convention of the Educational association nt
Toronto In July a rate of ono Jaro for the
round trip should bo clnrgcd , plus $ J by way
of the direct routes to Toronto only nnd not
by way of Buffalo or Niagara Kails. In
short , the association yielded every point
argued by the Alton. A committee was ap
pointed to recommend a form of ticket for
U90 during thu tourist season.
