ROURKE Is turning Into the Tj homestretch of the Western I' league race with a whole lot more 1 of experience In the matter of management, at least, and not nearly so many dollars as he should have had. It Is not especially to Omaha's credit that the team has had no better support than was accorded it, nor is the fault due to the management. Omaha has been in the fight from the very first, end the team has been one to reckon with In the pennant fight. It has had its share of good luck and quite a little streak of the bad fortunes that hover around . the ball field, but it has always put up a clean article of ball, and its opponents have not looked upon It as being a snap. On the road it has been a drawing card, Stronger even than at home. This dif ference does not reflect entirely on Kourke, but touches the town, for the other team owners are interested In the attendance, and look to Omaha to con tribute t the support of the league. In other years this support has been given, but, last year and this year the attend ance has. not, at any time been what it should be. Several reasons have been assigned for this condition, one of the most remarkable being that when the new stand was built at Rourke park the left field bleachers were cut out It seems Just a bit absurd that the owner of i a big place of amusement should be punished because he tries to improve the condition for the benefit of his patrons. But that Is the case here. Is it to be understood that if Rourke had gone along with the tumbledown grand stand and the disgraceful open seats his team would,have been prosperous? If so; what encouragement is there for a base ball man to provide decent surroundings for the game? In other cities It has not been so.lind why :should .Omaha, .take, this ettitude? " ' " ; " ' , BIG AMATEUR CARDS OFFERED Two lively Ball Games Will Be on Beck at Fort Omaha Today. BAUMS WILL MEET THE ADVOS The General Order of the Day Calls ' for Doable Headers, and Prc- , tlcally- Every Lot WH1 Be Occnpled. In itfhe matter of players, for three years, at least, Rourke's team has been one of the most expensive In the league. To begin with, he Is about the only West ern, league owner who has not a private arrangement with some big league mag nate., Omaha has not been a "farm" for any of the majors, and is not likely to become so. An example of the treatment afforded him is the case of Davidson, purchased from Brooklyn. Omaha needed an outfielder, and needed him badly. The weakness In the outer garden has cost the team many a game of ball this sea son. ; Davidson was purchased to play good 'ball. When he started the season he showed he could not give the service required, but it was impossible to replace him, and for sixty-five games' he had to be , used, and he had to be paid for, too, not; only the purchase price, but a fancy salary as well. The result was .that when the' purchase price was finally ordered paid by the national commission, Rourke gave the player his unconditional release, pocketing a net loss on him of quite a considerable sum of money as well as the defeats that were directly attributed to his Inability to play ball. Many other players were tried in the search for an outfielder, while the pitching staff of the team has been an uncommon source of expense. The team Is going along now In good shape, with a fair chance of finish ing, one-two-three, and leaving at the close of the schedule a group of young sters who will be ready to Jump into a hot fight next year. But the balance be' tween outgo and Income is not the occa sion of much exuberance at the head quarters.

During the last week the minor league owners, became wise to one of. the little Jokers that was carefully concealed In the new national agreement the one set ting the date for closing on sales and op tions ahead from August 25 to August 15. Several of the little fellows got stung on this, giving options to expire on August 15, thinking they then had ten days in which to negotiate sales, only to wake up and find their chance, gone and their players subject todraft. It wasn't a very pretty thing for the big league owners to do, but they did it. It only adds support to Ahe contention that the present rela tions between the leagues are all in favor of the big fellows. Uncertainty as to the outcome is keep inn a lot of folks looking up routes and rates. About the only sure thing is that the trip will not be taken to Washington or Pittsburg. The foot ball warriors are beginning to dig. up the padded armor, but it will be some time before they will get first place on the sport page. Drafting will soon be over, and then the little fellows will be able to tell Just what they'll have to do before next spring. Brother Dave looks ahead to wlnVjr with much serenity, assured of a plenti ful supply of cobs for the fire. Every tlmt.Pa looks at Thomason and thinks of Bertie King, he has to smile. What's the matter with Harry Hicks as the -bantam-weight champ? Wish we had a lot more "old spars'" like Skipper Bill - 1 'r L OTIS CRANDALL. The seeming slump of Marquard and Matthewson of the (giants' twirling corps puts Crandall In line for some of the heroic work that will be necessary to keep McGraw's boys from falling be fore the onslaught of the terrible Cubs. Crandall has a slow ball and a slower one. He often starts off by feeding a dilatory ball that the (batter misses en tirely in his endeavor to kill it. But the next one is, instead of a six-mile-'an-hour ball a four-mlle-an-hour ball. And the batter will break his back going after It. Otis Crandall has no fear, no nerves. nothing but a pleasant smile and a bunch of slow balls some slower than others. He's one of the most popular men among players In base ball.. Incidentally, as every one knows he can play the Infield or outfield as well as he can pitch. Also he's a bunch hitter of -some renown. standing at the present moment about as high as any one in the batting aver age lists. . Through the Knothole. Hoagon on third for the Y. M. H. A. Nuff sed.

A. is D'avlns short like a leaguer and has struck hi batting stride. His name is Rube, but be claims he is no relation to the great Giant Only one game will be played at Elm- wod park this afternoon: Independents against Y. M. H. A. Both teams have been playing grand ball, as a consequence a warm argument is looked for. - At Ralston the Alamlto Creamery Com pany will hold their annual picnic today, at which in all probability the stellar at traction will be a base ball game between the Wholesalers and Retailers.. ' Something extraordinarily good is looked for along the base ball line out at, Florence park when the Florence toys clash with a pair of Omaha bands. The first game will be with the Dundees anil the' second with the Stars and stripes. Novitsky of the Y. M.. H. A team bad his batting rage on last Sunday ai)d hit Mason of the Armours for three hits out of four times up, one of his hits clearing the right field fence and was one of the longest hits made on the local grounds.

GETS IDEA FE01I A CLAM SHELL As Ho Watches Shell. Sail Through the Air In Irregular Coarse He Gets Idea of Applying It ' to Pitching. NEW YORK, Aug. M.-Willtam Arthur Cummings, reputed Inventor of the ourve ball, is now living In a small cottage in the town of Athol, Mass. There have been other claimants of "the honor, but Cum mings has the support of most of the recognized authorities.' Among them are George Wright, John C. Chapman, A. G. Spalding, Douglas Allison, N. E. Young, A. Anson, Weston Fisler, Thomas Pratt and James White,,' all of whom made base ball history in the '70s. He Is Cummings own story of the discovery of the curve ball: "It was in the '60s that I discovered the curve ball, and, strange to say, It was the idle throwing of, half a clam shell that gave birth to such an Idea. As I watched the shells sail through their Ir regular course the theory developed in my mind that I might apply it in base ball. "After watching the shells follow their snaky course, I decided that I would try to see if I could throw a bail In a sim ilar manner. I was laughed at by scien tific men and base ball experts, but I finally proved to them that the stunt could be done, and for a long time I was known as the boy wonder. "My first experience In a club of any note was with an organization called the Carrolls, after Carroll park in Brook lyn. In the following spring I Joined the Star Juniors, which Won thirty-seven out of thlrty-nlfle games played. No regular suits were worn at that time. It was while I was' with the Stars that Joseph Leggett .of the Excelsior club got me to Join his team. "At this time there were no big leagues. The Excelsior was considered one of the strongest clubs In New York. I par ticipated in these games during part of '66 and pitched in a few of them. Camming' First Game, "I remmember the first game I pitched. Bralnard, who held a national reputation as a boxman, failed to show up, and I was substituted.. I only Weighed: 117 pounds and my opponents the Eurekas of Newark, N. J., a strong nine ex pected an easy victory, but they went home with a defeat of 24 to 12. "It was while I was with the Excelsiors that I went to Washington to play the annual game with the Nationals. We won. "The following year I went to Boston and played with such teams as the Low ells. Trl-Mountains and Harvard college. It was in a game with the latter that I first used the curve ball effectively be fore experts and spectators of note. This game was played in 1867. At this time. ' with secret practice, I found that I had perfect control of either the drop or raise, which came to me bofore the out or In shoot, because the pitching was dons with a perpendicular swing. "In the Harvard game Archie Bush came to bat. I feared him for his power ful hitting. Bush swung at the first curve ball pitched, but came within a foot of connecting. I tried it again and found he was really at my mercy, and I knew I had succeeded. The curves were hard to pitch at that time on account of the rules, which required a pitcher to keep both feet on the groifhd and not raise either until the ball left the hand. "The arm also had to be kept near the side and the delivery was made with perpendicular swing. By following thes Instructions it was a hard strain, as the wrist and second finger had to do all the work. ' "I snapped the ball away from me like a whip and this caused my wrist bone to get out of place quite often. I was compelled to wear ' a supporter all ons season on account of this strain. Did Not Lose a Series. "I Joined the famous Star club of Brooklyn In 1SG8 and was with it for four years. The club did not lose a series of games and during all that time won the championship of America and Can ada. In 1870 the Stars defeated the crack Mutual team of New York, 24 to 12, and In 1871, when the New Yorks won the championship, the Stars beat them 14 to 3. In 1S72 I Joined the Mutual team of New York and pitched every game but one that season. ," ."In 1873 I went to Baltimore, and was the only pitcher until August, when we got Bralnard to help. In 1874 I went to Philadelphia and pitched every game ex cept one, and we finished fourth. In 1875-8 I was with the Hartford team, and we had Tommy Bond to help, out In the pitching for awhile, but he soon left us. "We stood second In the race in 1876 and in 1876 second. These gamos were of the Importance of the American and Na tional games of today. I next went to Lynn and was sent as a delegate, to the base ball convention In Pittsburgh, where we formed the International association I finished the season with Cincinnati. "I secured my release from Lynn 'n July and finished the season1 with Cin cinnati. In 1878 I played with Albany, and It was at this time my health gave out and I retired from the diamond.. "I think the base ball player of today has quite an easy time compared with the player of my time. When I was on the diamond the ball contained two ounces of rubber, was a ''little larger, came with tremendous force and was ex tremely lively. No gloves were used, no masks or chest protectors for the catcher, end the man behind the bat was con stantly being Injured, "Just as much speed was used as at thn present day, snd the players' hands, espe cially the catchers, were covered with callouses and knocked Joints. The catcher did not stand close to the bat for the first two strikes, hut came up for the third, or when the bases were full." Americans May Not . Go After Davis Cup NEW YORK. Aug. 24.-Desplte the" fact that the prospects of the United States sending a team to Australia after the Davis cup are hasy this year, England Is making her plans to take the long Journey and try to capture' the ."famous trophy from Its colonists. England seems to have much less trouble defeating other nations than its own possessions. ' Alt the Olympic games South .Africa's champions, Wlnslow and JKindston, made a. clean sweep. The British championship wa won by Wilding, who hails from. jNew! Zealand, and the DaVls cup Is also' In Australia. .. -' . " ,. .. The British Lawn Tennis association has announced that the Davis c.up, w wlll.be chosen from among. the following racquet sllngers: C. P. Dixon, J. C. Tarke, A. E. Beamish, H. Roper Barrett, A. W.

MAKES GOOD IN ANOTHER BOUT With noma Back la Hla Old Fotm ' interest lWay weight Affairs Woald . B ; Ineraa -" . Materially. NEW YORK. Aug. M-rNow thal Tommy Bourns has' actually taken parf . In another bout and made' good,' tha 6na j; time champion's threat to coma back and compete against the various white . hopes' for another chance to appear in titular bout seems to be in a fair way of being accomplished. Burns has been out of tha ring for two years, but he is only 31 yeara old and ought to have many good fights left In him yet. In a recent bout with Joe Rlckard, whom he stopped in six rounds at a small town in the Canadian northwest, ' he only weighed 185 pounds. It this la ' so, he must, have dona, some hard and consistent training, t for ha was known to be scaling around 200 pounds thls,. spring. :, :I2 With Burns back In his old form, inter est In heavyweight affairs wpuld be In- , creased . matetfally. , Already , there 1. talk of matching him with Joe' JeanetteT j one of the formidable negroes who bar ;i! the road .to the ' title.. But before tack- ' ling a task of this else it would be' a good Idea for him to come here and clean- up" m few of the stalwart hopes who have loomed hp sine he retired. It might happens that Burns , would find trouble enough on his hands in a bout with' such giants ss Falser, McCarty or Stewart, even If he has regained hit ist form.
