TIIE OMAITA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, AUGUST 1G, 1903. 1JT BASE BAIL GOSSIP OF Ull Oxih Still Wreitlin; With Erd Luck Again it tbe Field. NEW PLAYERS MAY BRING A CHANGE Tkoriloa aad Kelly Einl ta Ada treasrth to the Tmm in4 En able It Escape from ! 1r.st Place. Plugging along. Josh Killing once remarked that whn a man started to go down hill It seemeJ as . If everything u greased for the occa fSion. And Papa Bill Rourke la willing to and up and say "amen" to this. He has more than proved It elnce the present base ball season opened, and blda fair to go through to the end piling up evidence In favor of the affirmative. Blll'a band of warriors haa gone from one hard luck epi sode to another with a sickening regularity, and emerge from one wae of disaster only to be engulfed by another. But right here's where the change cornea.' Not a man In the bunch haa lost hia courage, and every time the dip haa been taken It haa been against the proteat of the entire band. Just at present the team la In aa good play ing condition aa It haa been thin season, the acquisition of Thornton at flrat and Kelly at short doing much to bring It back to Ita old form, and the teams that have been doing so well at Omaha's expense are likely to have their fun cut oil short. Everybody knowa what Jack Thornton can do, and Kelly glvea all exterior evidence of being a ball player, so there will very likely be something doing from the Omaha nd of It from this time out. We may not win the pennant, but It's going to keep Ees Moines and Denver both Jumping to bold us In the bottom hole. Messrs. Burns, Packard and Sexton all got together at Denver during the last week and proceeded to deny totally and In each Item the sundry and divers reports, rumors. Interviews and hot-air yarns with which their names had been connected dur ing the fortnight previously, and especially did they deny any Intention, expressed or Implied, of the Western abandoning the fight In Milwaukee or Kanaaa City. Hughy Duffy chimes In from Milwaukee, promising to 1 "hold her nocxle ag'ln the bank till the last galoot's ashore." or words to that effect. He Is as heroic as Leonidas and James Fltxjames both put together, and almost as chary In his expressions as the late James J. Corbet t. One of the few things In the deluge of denials thst Is of Interest Is the statement by Messrs. Burns and Packard that they do not own and control a majority of the clubs In the Western league. Nor haa there been any further attempt to turn the Omaha fran chise over to Bobby Lowe or any other man. All of which Indicates that In a degree the Rocky Mountain magnates are returning to reason In a degree. But their assertions that the American league Is on the point of dissolution, and Is certain to abandon the disputed points, seems to be founded on mere hope. The stubborn fact la that the American is in better snap than It was last year, and the Western is not. Whatever the reason, the batters of the Western league are not jnaklng the show ing they did last year. When such pitchers as Owen, Brown, Weitner, Gibson and Ad kins were officiating in tbe league the bat ting list was as full of .909 hitters as a dog Is of fleas. With these acknowledged stars out of the game, the list of sluggeVs has dwindled 'until only ten of them have the mark. Nine others are hitting close to .TOO, but outside tbe money. Here are the ten leaders: . Fleming. Colorado Springs, left field.. .84 Duffy, Milwaukee, center field HI O'Leary. Dee Molnee, shortstop. ...... .330 O'N'eil, Milwaukee, right field .3.3 Fohl, Desj Moines, catcher XI Thornton. Omaha, first base .321 irongaiton, Colorado Borings, right field Jit Dtlehanty, Denver, second base .311 MCConnelU Bt. Joseph, catcher.... Wright, Peoria, flrat baae M That Isn't a very formidable list of slug gers, Is ItT Have the batters lost their yea, or have we been getting the real thing in the way of pitching and not recog nised HT Even the great Ooerge Alonao Btone, who hit away over, .300 last year, la batting thirty-third in the 41st, with a per centage of .176. It's pretty hard to say what. tbe time Buck had made tip his mind that he had enough of the Millionaires, and while he was profuse in his promises to return, be next showed up in an Oakland uniform and haa been playing regularly on Petle Lohman's team ever since. Dun don's absence will weaken Denver mate rially, for neither RadcltfTe nor Schlebeck can equal him as a player. The statistics for the Omaha's team per formance during the last week Indicate a general Improvement in fielding and an equal slump In hitting.

Waldner la now the holder of the same title with Krelgh Collins, It will also be remembered that thla latter team gave (he Doherty brothers such a close run In the championship round In the na tional double last year. These interstate events have been a great success and Omaha players alwaya look forward to witnessing the skill of the vis itors when they appear on the Field club courts every August. The tournaments of l&M and 1896 were managed by George E. Haverstlck. those of li3 and 1 by C. H. Toung, while the tennis committee of the Omaha Field club insured the success of those held in 1931 and 1901. GOLF ENTHUSIASM IS GROWING Ope week from Tuesday Presidents John' son, Pulliam and Powers will meet at 6ir atoga to complete the draft of the na tional agreement which is to cover all baae ball operations; That this agreement win be ratified is a foregone conclusion. It is assured that it will be In all essential re gards a model document for the govern ment of the' game from - the magnate's point of view, and as such will be of great service to the game. Even with the slack control of the present year the improve ment ever the condition of anarchy that prevailed last season is -so marked as to Indicate what may be expected when the time comes that the player's will Is not tbe absolute law of tbe diamond. When It geta to the pass that a player can bald his place only by doing hia best the game will be the gainer and the honest players will be none the losers. For two seasons the rowdies have defied suspension and the black list because of the demand for play ers. An agreement between the leaguea Will put these fellows on a different basis and may induce thi-ro to behave. At any rate, they'll either play ball or get out of the game. Denver la in a wonder Just now over the actions of Qua Dundon. The busy little third baseman left the Grtsslles at Mil waukee, ostensibly to go to his home In Pennsylvania, where his wife waa reported sick. He said he would return to Denver. Since then It has been reported that he will Join the Chicago Americans at Boston. Packard doesn't say If he thlnka Dundon haa Jumped, but be Is playing Radcllffe on third and Schlebeck at ahort. To a man at thla distance It looks as if Dundon's wife bd served him the same sort of a turn that Buck Franoks' wife served htm.

The pennant race In the Trl-Clty league has reached a point of much Interest and hna practically settled down between the Ideals and Originals, with the Ideals allghtly in the lead. The two Bluffa teams are way in the rear and can not hope to catch up in their position at all, as the aeason la more than two-thirds over. The Ideals have gained and held the lead through their conalstently heavy batting and through the work of their pitchers.

It Is the opening day of the mid dle west tournament, which win bring to gether the representative players of at least five states. Everything Is In the best of preparation for the tournament, which will live op to Its promise of being the beat and most suc cessful of any ever held in Omaha or In the middle west. The number of entries Is as great as there ever was, the courts are a little finer and the players Just a little better than ever, before. Tbe names of the players who will play In the tournament show an unusually large number of strong men for any tournament outside of tbe east or Chicago. Most of them have long rec ords of many victories to look back upon and all of them are still playing in their strongest form. The prises, too, am very fine. In valua tion alone they are as good aa are given for any tournaments except the largest of the eastern ones, where money has ceaaed to be an object.

The average strength of the players is Increasing too. esplte the Increase In new players and he number of players that are making the round at the Country ciub In under IdO Is above the fifty mark, while there are twenty or thirty that have equally low records over the Field club course. Euch matches as (he one with the two Dee Moines club for the last two days of the week Just passed are also aiding greatly In the Interest of 'the piayers and In directly In the character of their play. Competition was life at both clubs for places on the teams and for the whole week preceding the matches the various players spent all of their spare time work ing on the links and trying to Improve their play. Many low scores were made in practice and, when the matches were played, the results of the extra practice were quite apparent. The Country club Is planning to acquire more ground next year for the course If possible. The course at present la not aa long aa the regulation course, but all that can be done to lengthen It on the ground they now have haa been done and more ground la necessary to Increase ita length.

A few of the women have taken up the game and the Interest that they display Is great. But their number Is still small and an attempt Is being made to oontlnue to Interest more. The weekly contests have proven an encouraging feature and the McMillan cup has given added Interest to the game among those playing. All of the matches for the women, so far, have been played over the first nine holes, but In time the play will be extended over the entire eighteen hole course. At present nine holes Is quite sufficient for most of them to play as they have not had sufficient practice to lay through the entire eighteen without wearing themselves out entirely and many would not attempt to go around more than the nine holes if the matches called for it even.

In previous years the meet was termed the Omaha Interstate tournament, bat now bears the more dignified nam of The Middle Weat championship.

Munching is one of the numerous preventives of growing avoirdupois, and aa It bas ths recognition of King Edward It is naturally regarded with much favor In Newport. The theory Is that every particle of food must bit chewed slowly and carefully until no solid material remains to be swallowed. Blow eating Is merely carried to an extreme by th new treatment. All London society threatened with too much flesh Is said to be chewing very long and very thoroughly and American converts to the system are already numerous. Its effect Is said to be noticeable at dinners, which have come to be known as munching parties snd are much leas vivacious than they were when eating and drinking went on rapidly. Per sona who eat slowly also eat much less than those who eat rapidly. Tpwinrvn USPEDSE-. It is a spider's life.
