WATKntoo , fa. , Juno 24. Today was the
hottest day of the season , IfJ3 In the slindc
nt 4 o'clock. The sun has been obscured by
clouds most of the tlnn1. The excessive tem
perature Is duo to a hot wind which has pre
vailed all day. The leaves on the trees are
curling up and the gross Is seared In place * .
It Is thought the hot winds will not do much
damage to crops , owing to the inolst condi
tion of the ground from recent rains. Corn
by actual mcasuiomcnt grow over throa
inches today. _

Senator Paddock called at the war depart

Who wants a detail for another year as mili
tary Instructor at the Nebraska state uni
versity. Secretary Proctor is out of the city
nnd will not return under a week or ton days ,
nnd no action will bo taken upon the various
applications for the detail till ho returns , al
though Assistant Secretary Grant has the
matter in charge. The senator talked to
Gouoral Grant about It , urging the detail of
Lieutenant Griffith for another year , on
the ground that ho had not had a fair
chance to show his abilities during the
past year , as the university had not
till now a chancellor , and tbo institution had
been In somewhat of a chaotic condition.
General Grant said that nil other applications
for details for a second year had been de
clined arid there was no disposition to make
nn exception in this caso. Senator Paddock
will see Secretary Proctor when the latter
returns next week. Senator Manderson nnd
many others are working for Lieutenant

O WKOTE Michael
Angclo Lane the
other day when An-
sou nnd his colts
dumped n game , nnd
us It fits Omaha's
case yesterday it
comes In handy
here.
The Lambs were
simply flagellated
out of their boots
_ and that Is all thoio
Is to It.
And they deserved the llckme , for n
rockier exhibition of the great national sport
hasn't been stacked up in those parts for
many moons.
The day was line and the attendance good ,
but a mete disgusted crowd of spectators
never loft thu park.
And they had a light to bo , although there
were some extenuating circumstances. Papa
McCauley was IndUposcd and laid off , nnd
any ball crank can toll you what that maiis.
Allan stands today as the first baseman with
out a poor In the Western association ,
Mac's ' absence put "Old Cy" on the In
itial bag and Billy Traflloy behind the bat.
Then Dad Clarke , who has grown rusty by
his long enforced idleness , was put into
pitch , mid whllo bis vulnerable twirling wont
a long way toward Insuring defeat , ho did
not lese the game alone and single handed by
a long shot.
lm support was majestically burnt
In preliminary practice the Lambs cavorted
upon the tender green sword Just like so
many three-year-olds at play.
They labored under the Idea that the Min
nies were relics of the stone age , und that
they could grab the game by the fundamental
basis of the pantaloons and yuuk it out when
ever thov felt like It.
But there is many n Up between the slip
and the dipper , isn't there I
While the Shannon farnrly romped about in
fiendish glee the Minnies looked on sad and
subdued , but with a revengeful glare In tnoir
eyes that said ns plain as words :
"We may fool you a trip "
Fourteen to seven , that was the si/o of It.
Fiom the very start tbo Omahogs batted
something after the fashion of Uona Frank-
Irn's female team , and fielded and ran bases
like so many cove oysters.
Nobody dreamed that , the Lambs could
lese ; their work has been so grand , so reful
gent for the past ten da > s , and the crowd
actually expected to see 'eui knock out an
other victory big enough to cat hay !
But the lightning don't most always some
times strike in the same place every day in
the week , does ill
The Omaha ciowd , too , has become a trifle
flossy , and it was high timn Mr. Hollow
Ejed Luck was taking in a reef or two.
The bloachcrs "pulled" hard , but it was no
go. Even Dan Honau's coaching seemed to
have lost Its potency.
Even Colonel Strlof was slightly tinged
with canary , too , but it was a wretched gamete
to umpire , and his greatest dotlcioncy lay in
Ins allowing the Harrington gang to delay
the gamo.
They are the laziest lot of players who over
donned a uniform , and the hustle thov got on
themselves in ono or two innings vesterdav
wns something wholly unaccountable.
In the first Manager Dan walked right up
to the plate and stood there until Mr. Juke
gave him his base on balls. Donnelly sacri
ficed and Dan went to second. Then O'Hool-
Igan made a hit and Daniel reached third.
With the speed of an Ice wagon Jocko broke
for second , and although ho was going at the
rate of a mlle a month , ho could have made it
easily , but ho stopped lo pull up his socks ,
nnd Darling and Ilongln killed him. A mo
ment later Manager Dan came in on a fan
tastic thiow by Darling. "Om Cy" fur
nished the third out.
The Minnies , for some occult reason , re
fused to tie the score , and in the second the
Lambs took nn egg Jlip.
Then tbo circus onenod in both rings.
As a sort of bluff Darling permitted
Traflloy to five him out at , first. Thou "Old
Cy" dropped Walsh's assist , and Shugart
was safe. MInnehan popped up a fly that
should have boon eaten nilvo but It wasn't.
HoiiKlo's long ono was captured by the Com-
modoie , then Tread way made a hit , nnd so
did Marling Duckolet ; B. H. Ward took his
base as a present , McUlono crowded a safe
ono to center and McQuald hammered out a
two sacker , and there was an oven half
dozen on the half shell.
Wasn't tlmt tough , though I
The second was ban-on of results for both
sides , and so was the third.
In the fourth Donnelly got first on four
wide ones , and then after Jocko and "Old
Cy" had been retired , the Deacon bit the
ball nt the base of the splro , and by the tlmo
Colonel Treadway had tlshcd it out of tlio
woods 'way out on the \Vnshlucton county
line , both the rrofostorand his ecclesiastical
brother wcro sitting on the bench.
Twltnholl'a out ended the inning.
All the Minnies could do was to add ono
moio single tally to their string on hits by
McQuaid and Darling nnd a braeo of ro-
chercho steals.
Again Omaha got what the boy shot nt , but
the Minnies made two more , which was neniu
duplicated In the hlxth. In the seventh
Walsh's threo-snckor and Traftloy's single
netted ono , while live singles and n two-bair-
gor rolled up Unco for the visitors , which
were their last
The eighth developed throe moro for the
Lambs , then they tinow up their talu und
wont to the stable.
The last of the Minnies this afternoon. Go
out and see them Hayed allvo. The score ;

"Bo suio to make It a cinch , " said Ed.
Brandt to Uncle Dick McCormlck as the lat
ter climbed out of the directors' box at the
ball grounds Tuesday afternoon.
"You bet I will , " and the chief owner of
the Omaha base ball team disappeared ,
ostensibly for no place In particular , leaving
the Impression that ho was going after the
much needed pitcher.
Btttyestctdtiy it transpired that St. Paul ,
Minn. , wns the end of Mr. MeCormich's
journey , and that the sale of the Omaha team
intact to some of the capitalists of that citv
was the object.
It is not known whether the Intended snlo
contemplates the transfer of the Omaha
team to St. Paul or not , but it Is known that
n deal for the sale of the McCormick interest
is under way. Several financially responsi
ble gentlemen discussed the matter yester
day , und expressed some surprise that any
deal looking to a transfer of tbn team would
bo considered for a moment. "If Mr.
McCormick wants to sell out , "
said a well known capitalist ,
"lot him make known his desire.
nnd ho can find a purchaser in Omaha , I'll
guarantee that the club will bo well sup
ported horo. "
This .sentiment was ondoisod by others ,
and the belief that Omaha should not bo de
prived of representation in the Western as
sociation wns strongly expressed. Until Mr.
McConniek's ' exact Intentions aio manifest it
will be well lo suspend judgment.
It may bo said , though , that a short can
vass among the playeis developed strong
aversion to going to tbo lee palace town to
play.
