It was a horse apiece when the Omaha
and Jacksonv.llo learns lined up at the ball
park yesterday , and we won the cdd ono
In one of the pretllcst contests that has
delighted an Omaha audience this season.
Of course It wns a lltlle one-sided , but wo
couldn't help lliat. The article of ball the
homo team put up to Connie Strothers' ag
gregation yesterday was a lltllo swift for
them , and although they did their beat , they
were distanced' the flag. They wore
willing cnonsh to win , but they couldn't
figure out hew It was to be done , whllo
Rourke's hired men were keeping them busy
chasing the ball.
H had been expected that Willie Mcdlll
would arrive In time lo offlclatc In Ihe box ,
but ho failed lo pill in nn appearance , but
Lookabaugh did so well tlmt Willie was
not missed. Moran once more appeared In
nn Omaha uniform , and was warmly wel
comed. He was presented with a box of
flno cigars frm a number of his admirers
among the Jobbers when he came to bat , and
evinced his appreclallon by catching a per
fect game and adding a trioof clean liltn
lo the total.
But while the entire team did excellent
work , your old friend Lily Langsford wns the
stellar attraction that It was worth twice
tho" price of admission to see. He accepted
nine chances and In his seven times at bat
made two home runs , three doubles and a
single. In the fourth Inning Lily retired
the side alone. Grotty hit n hot one past
second base , but Lily made a run nnd Jump
and scooped It up with one hand Just In
tlmo to nail him at first. Uevcnoy and
Cnpllncor both perished In the futile attempt -
tempt to knock thd ball past the redoubt
able beauty , who retired with all the honors
of the Inning ,
WHEN HE MADE A HOME RUN.
But It was In that fatnl seventh Inning
which has BO often proved the salvation of
the Omaha team that Lily's star shone with
Its most brilliant luster. Hutch got a base
on balls and a wide pitch advanced him to
second. Moran lilt safely nnd Smith's fum
ble of Pedroes' hit passed Hutch over the
plate. Then hits by Fear and Ulrlch and
Crotty's error filled the bases nnd Pedroes
scored. Lily had already made three doubles
and the crowd yelled with approbation as he
promised to do It again. Capllnger rwted
awhllo to get his nerve , and then shoved
ono of hla speediest curves over the plale.
Talk nboul your Madonnas , your visions of
beautiful women resplendent In snowy silks
nnd sparkling diamonds , or the summer girl ,
sweet ns a May morning In her clinging
gown , by which her golden hnlr and sapphire
eyes glow with the entrancing luster of a
dream , none of them could compare wllh the
bentlfio expression on Lily's corruscated
mug as ho swatlcd lliat chunk of pigskin
over the waiting barn and four runs came
trundling over the lltlle whllcd square which
llus McKelvey calls home.
Tlio crowd of frantic fans was on Its feet
In a second , and every mother's son of them
cheered like crazy men ns Lily rounded the
bases. And the hundreds of feminine hand
kerchiefs In the grand stand waved nn en
thusiastic accompaniment to the bravos cf
Jholr more excited escorts.
Even all this glory , however , was not
enough for 'Lily , and the very next time he
came to bat he found the same hole over the
barn and added a couple of runs to the load
that the already overburdened Suckers were
compelled to bear.
HUTCH MADE A PLAY.
Whllo talking about brilliant plays HutchInson -
Inson must not bo overlooked. His stop of
Crotty's hit In. the last half of the same
Inning was a sure enough phcnom , and he
had to lift his cap twlco In recognition of the
uproarious appreciation of tha crowd.
The visitors did not have as good luck
with their run getting as Papa's men. They
might not bo' blamed for that , since Ihey
did not 'have Lily , but clean fielding by the
homo learn shut thorn out In several Innings
after they hnd lilt safely twice. Lookabaugh
was In bolter form Ihan he hnd shown since
the team came homo , nnd , with the excep
tion of a slight fulling from grace In the
sixth Inning , ho kept the hits of the Suckers
too well scattered to bo ot benefit to them ,
Altogether II was a brilliant exhibition , and
If unyllilnc like It is dcnlt out to the lall-
endars wo should hnvc n cinch on three
straight. Score :

DENVEIl , Aug. Id. The nallonal riding
tournament of the League of American
Wheelmen was Inaugurated here today In the
presence of over 10,000 i > copl5. The ar
rangements were carried cut perfectly and
the success of the tournament , financially
and otherwise. Is assured. There was Boine
disappointment over the nonappcarnnco of
J. S. Johnson , the Minneapolis champion.
Ills wheel broke In the mile open trial In
Iho morning and he did nol qualify. Wesl-
crn men are a little disappointed that their
representatives did not win more prizes ,
but are Jubilant over the performances of
Barnett of Lincoln , Neb. , In llio two-mile
handicap nnd llio good showing of Kelgler
of California nnd llio Illinois men , Ander
son nnd Gardner , and also Weller of Salt
Like and Maxwell of Wlnlleld , Kan. The
records lowered tcday are those for the
one mile novice , one mile open , class 1) , and
flvo-mlio natlonnl championship.
Lee Richardson of Chicago went against
the half mile record for backward riding ,
nnd reduced It from 2:47 : to 2:35. : Illch-
ardson gave a fine exhibition of fancy rid
ing.Tlio
, Tlio mlle novice was paced by Clinfiln
and Phillips , and the result was the fastest
mile ever ridden In a novice race. The
first championship rnce was the halt mile.
Twelve men stnrled. Sangcr went clear
of the bunch In the back stretch , but gave up
In the straight. Ilald , the winner. Is from
Buffalo.
The fourth event , the one mile open , cre
ated the greatest enthusiasm of Ihe day.
Sanger look Ihe lead al two-thirds nnd held
It until 200 feet from the tnpe. Hero
Snngor , with Tllus , Brown and Bald , were
all lapping each other. Sanger 1ml the
pole , or was close to It , nnd Titus , coming
very fast , cut Inside of him. Sangor's
wheel was seen to wobble for an Inslanl
and Tllus and Brown bolh finished ahead
of him. Titus WAS disqualified for foul
riding , nnd Brown was given first place ,
with Sanger second nnd Bald third. Titus'
friends claim Sanger was not near enough
to the pole to claim It , and also state that
Sanger tried to elbow Titus off Iho track ,
Titus' time was 2:10 : 3-5 , which Is the record
for n scratch race , the previous record being
2:11 : ,1-5 , by Sanger. Brown , the winner. Is
a Cleveland man.
BAUNETT MADE A NICE RACE.
In the two-mile handicap Harnett of Lin
coln , Neb. , who had a handicap of ISO yards ,
passed the leader on the second mile nnd
won by 200 feet. In this race Dodsan fell
In the flflh lap and McGuire and Hamilton
went over him. None were seriously hurt.
In Ihe flve-mllo championship the time
limit was set at sixteen minutes. Several
men started. The pace was set by several
riders alternately , and at the four-mllo point
Cabanne took the lead. The spurt on the
last lap was very hot and at the finish live
men were pretllly bunched. Titus won and
beat the world's record for five miles In
competition , making the distance in 12:19 : 1-5.

HYDB , Isle of Wlfilil , AUK. 1C. To the de
light of tlio here-assembled ynclitstncn a
fairly strong westerly breeze wan blowing to-
tiny , llio tlilril Jay of llio regalia of the
Iloynl Victoria Yncht club. Tlio chief race
on tlio program was the Town cup , valued at
tnOO , to be competed for by all yachts over
tO-ratlng. Tlio three yachls. Vigilant , llrl-
tannin and Sntanlla , were entered.
Tlio course today was that of theKoyal
Victoria Yacht club , known us the "long
course 'round tlio Nab. " It was from nn
Imaginary line drawn between Uyilo pier
and a mark boat off that point , eastward toNe
No Man Fort light , leaving It to starboard ;
from there past tlio Warner light , leaving It
to port , and around the Nab lights , leaving
them to port. From the Nub the course was
westward to and around a marU boat ofT thu
Spit Fort light , passing Horj > e Fort light to
the south. From this point thu course was
eastward to a mark boat off the west middle
buoy opposite Cowcs. The west middle mark-
boat was left to port mid then the yachts
returned eastward to the finish line olT Uydo
pier and the lloyul Victoria Yacht club house
adjoining It. Twice around this course com
pletes the total distance of fifty miles.
In tlio day's event Vigilant allowed Satan-
Ita forty-two seconds and llrltutuila two min
utes nine seconds.
As the gun was fired to tend the boats
eastward on their course Vigilant was pointIng -
Ing straight for the line. Sslanlta and Bri
tannia , though nearest of tlio line , wcro
pointing southward and therefore lost way
In having to gibe. The times of the yachts
at starting were : Satanlta , 10:00:01 : : ; llrltan-
nla , 10:00:07 : : ; Vigilant , 10:00:09. : :
Although Vigilant crossed the line last she
had greater way on her owing to tlio fact
that she was not compelled to gibe for the
line and she soon overhauled her opponents
and took the lead when they wore about n
quarter of a mile out. Satunita , on the other
hand , fell Into third position nnd people bn-
gan to think that the American yacht was
going to administer a sound drubbing to the
two nrltishers.
SHOWED THEIR PHI5TTY KEELS.
All three yachts were carrying club top
sails , jibs and jib topsails , and the force of
the wind , to the delight of all spectators ,
sent them reeling over until tirlr rails were
partly submerged as they tore along , dash
ing tlio spray aside and leaving a churned
streak of whlto water glistening behind
them.
As a result of yesterday's gnle n choppy
sea was running through the Solent ; but
this only served to make things livelier
and to make the racers show tlielr bottoms
prettily as they surged over the green roll rs
in grand style , to plunge superbly forward
urder the pressure of their clouds of snow-
white canvas. The race horses wen- strain
ing every nervu to outfoot each other.
The three yachts at first made a board
toward the opposite shore. Vigilant lulling
up In order to prevent Britannia , which
had the > weather position , from getting
ahead. Vigilant pressed hard on the Bri-
tarnla's lee and some fine jockeying took
place between them. Dut whil-- these duels
In seamanship were taking place Antanltn ,
most cleverly handled , took advantage of
the hiding tactics to head straightaway for
the Nab , and to these lights she mnd > a
bee line , ripping along at u splendid rate ,
gaining rapidly on her opponents as she
made her way out to sen.
The commanders of Vigilant and Brltan-
-nla were soon obliged , owing to Satan-
Ita's surge ahead , to point out to sea
and abandon their Inning mutch. Britannia
"then' crossed under Vlgllant's lee , show
ing that the Yankee yacht had the vorat of
It In the lufilng duels. Nenrlng the Nab
the positions of tha yachts were : Satanlta
first , Drltannla second nnd Vigilant third.
Spinnakers were spresd to the breeze as
the throe yachts with the wind hauled
slightly northward ran Dor Nab lights.
From the Nab lights it was a reach west
ward and northward to the next bojt mark.
The Vigilant drew out after passing the
spit and before two miles more had been
covered was over a quarter of a mile ahead.
SATANITA FORGED AHEAD.
Dy this time the wind was freshening and
favored Satanlta , en'abllng that yacht to
pull ahead , and she soon afterwards ap
peared to bo Increasing the gap which she
had placed between herself and her competi
tors and passing Hyde , opposite Cowes , Mr.
Clark's yacht appeared to be about a mile
ahead.
'About a scora -10-rater yachts and 20-
raters were "ontesting in the other races of
the day and all were going at a tremendcus
pace , every sail filled to the utmost , caus
ing much excitement and great enthusiasm
among the thousands of people gathered at
Uie higher heads and upon the esplanades
watching the yachts race by. As they
crossed the line nt the head of the first
round Satanlta's lead was six minutes and
thirty-three seconds on Vigilant , and on
Britannia six minutes nnd forty seconds.
At the Nab llgnt on the second round
both Britannia and Vigilant had crept up
on the Satnnlta , but the princeof Wales'
cutter had taken second place. Satanlta
at the lights led Britannia by four minutes
and thirty-five seconds and was four minutes
and fifty-five seconds ahead of Vigilant.
Satanlta won , Drltannla second nnd
Vigilant third.
In the short run from the Spit to the
opposite Hyde , both Vigilant nnd Hrltnnnln
pulled up on the leader , the American yacht
reducing the gap to three mlmitos thirty seconds
ends , while the Britannia was four minutes
forty-eight seconds behind the Satanlta.
At the Spit forkboat mark Satanlta had a
lead of six minutes thirty-eight seconds on
Britannia and eight minutes forty-eight seconds
ends on Vigilant. Britannia got a good
breeze coming up from the Spit and rapidly
gained.
Times of the yachts nt the finish : Satan
lta , 3i3C:39 : ; Britannia , 3:42:23 : : ; Vigilant ,
3:43SO. : :
Satanlta consequently beat Britannia by
five minutes forty-four seconds and defeated
Vigilant by seven minutes eleven seconds ,
while the Britannia wns ono minute twenty-
seven seconds ahead of the American yacht
at the finish , all three times being without
counting the tima allowance.
UYDI3 , Aug 1C. It Is announced the match
between the Vigilant and the Britannia will

ident Jim hod not replied at midnight , nnd
fo President Dave doesn't know If he will
tret Abbey. If Abbey coin's he will pitch

nounced till he Is In town. M.r Howe ro-
grelled very much that he had announced
