By a tragedy of errors in the ninth In-'
nlng Omaha lot to Denver yesterday the
game that decided whether Omaha should
occifpr! fourth or fifth rplace- - In the per
centage column at the season's close. The
final score was 3 to 2 and what made this
finish the' more 'pitiful was the fact that
tho visitors .had not a single run till that
fatal Inning. t '
To Calhoun, to Fleming and to McAn
drew Is due the breaking of the hearts
of the Urge crowd of enthusiasts which
gathered to see Its favorites make It three
straight frost Denver and a sure berth In
the upper half or tho list of team stand
ings. Calhoun lost the game, Fleming
cinched It, then McAndrcws wet tho knot.
Just an error each (6 can-eel these three
runt, not una of which was earned.
And this Is how It happened. When Bill
Everltt's men cams to bat at tho end of
the eighth Inning Omaha had two runs,
Denver none; seven hits were registered for
the io:alJ, six for their opponents; one
error stood In the error column of the Gate
City men, three were chalked Against the
Pike's feakcrs. People began to get
up so as to watch the last few minutes
of play standing.
It was then that Mr. Dunden came to
bat. He hit a hot one to Toman and that
player completed, bla total of five clean
assists by- fielding It to first as the crow
files. One out and the spectators swayed
towards" the exits. Shortstop Itadcllffe was
next- A safe slnglo .over second base was
ins coniriouiion. men Aiiowar nil rnsa
with the ball. That made two men on bags
and It began to look interesting. The crowd
wavered back towards tho benches.
Fatal Errors Lose flame.
Dut B. Jones, pitcher, came up and struck
out on;, two .three. People started pell
mell for tbb gates, watching the diamond
as they went. It was Prestton's bat. He
bad seen first be.se once during the game.
This time he knocked a pop-up near the
Initial bag. Calhoun stood with his big
roll', and waited' for the hall to descend.
It rolled out of his pillow to the ground
and a horror-stricken gasp went up from
the watchers. Radcllfto had scored on tho
error. They wero transformed. From the
happy mood' born of a certain victory they
were plunged Into all tho anxiety of a
crisis.
And well might they be. Three men on
bases, with the redoubtable sticker McHale
at bat, the man who bad made two hits on
both Monday and Tuesday. But It was no
safe one- that the catcher knocked at the
critical moment yesterday. It was a long
fly to Fleming, the man who never misses.
This time he dropped It. Frisk scored, tie
log the .tally. Thus,. the second chancn to
win was lost. One more remained. It was
2 to 2, and If Omaha could end thts disas
trous half thero was a good chance to bat
out a victory yet.
Two men still on bases,, and Alloway let
Delehanty walk to first and fill the bases
Mip' It (looked hopeless now, tor Bill Ev
erltt was to bat, and he can out-hit even
McHale. But Alloway strained his every
nerve, and all that Everett could do was
to knock a grounder to the Infield. McAn
ilrews played for It, and fumbled misera
bly. Preston scored, and McHale was mak
ing fast for home. But by that time Toman
had secured the ball and by a quick throw
to Oondlng ended the misery.
It was 3 to 2, and the dmabas were un
able to get so much as a single bit In their
half. That ended everything. Disconsolately
tha .well-known players slouched off the
field. Six of them could not have heloed
It, but they all felt badly. To Calhoun
vtas really due the loss of the game, as his
cbanco was tho first and easiest.
The features of the playing by Omaha
wero tho hitting and Toman's all around
work. II seemed nn If the boys couldn't
kit singles off II. Jones, the ex-National
Iraguer. Nothing but doubles and such
vould do. Oondlng made a three-bagger
that would have been four but for vcrr
fast and fine fielding by Preston.
Toman Win Glory.
Jlraray. Toman waa a star. He led the
batting with a double and a single, and his'
fielding was perfect Some of his assists
might easily have failed to arrive at first
in time, had he not fielded with a raoldlty
seldom en. But It Is all off now till next
year. " Score:

Tim Ormsby
The desk sergeant, who bad been reading
In a Sunday paper about the Incubator
twins In a New York hospital, asked Tim
Ormsby what be thought of this particular
triumph of modern science.
"It's nice and warm for 'em now," said
Tim, "but the Ice'll begin to form when
they grows up and tries to break Into soci
ety. Some painted doll in tb smart set'lt
trace back their family tree and find they've
got a patent-applled-for mamma, with the
lamp liable to explode any minute. I ain't
up on lncnbator twins, but what I don't
know about refrigerator twins Is tore out
of th book,"
"What's refrigerator twins!"
"Th' refrigerator twins Is a brace o'
towns up la Greater Sweden that reminds
you of an Icecream sandwich 'cause tbey's
a ecldness between 'em."
"Greater Sweden? Oh, you mean Minne
apolis and St. Paul?"
"That'B the way they spells It on the
map and .they gets along together about
like two cocks In a pit. Th' 8t. Paul trains
all backs Into Minneapolis, but Minnie savs
she don't mind It a bit, 'cause all th' blli
zards strikes her first anyway, it's worth
thirty days for a Minneapolis man to be
:lht In St. Paul. While I'm there the
at 'e fslr Is on and a Minneapolis guy goes
tip In a balloon, an' what doej tbe para
chu e do but drop him In St. Paul"
"Well, he couldn't help that," said tbe
desk v'ergesnt.
"Thai's what he tells th' gang that's
puttln' a new gravel roof on th cement
works. But it's a week before he gets th'
pitch out of his hair, an by that time th'
foreman's kids tt usln' his parachute for a

"Thosi towns are very Jealous of their
