ROURKES HAVE .
FIELD DAY WITH
SLIPPING KAVS
Jackson's Men Pound Pill in
Pinches and Earn 15 to 4
Victory Over Nee's
Topeks.
Bill Jackson came back yesterday.
So did his athletes. The score was,
Omaha IS, Topeka 4. Very sweet,
very sweet.
Whatever the Rourkes overlooked
in touching up the Neekaws, or what
ever it is they call them until Mon
day when they become the Packers
of Hutchinson, Topeka having died
a natural death, would best re
main unsaid. For those Rourkes did
some terrible things to the Neekaws.
Also the Neekaws did some terrible
things themselves.
Hit in Pinches.
The real story of the game lies
in the fact that the Rourkes hit in
the pinches. There were three glar
ing instances.
In the opening stanza, three
Rourkes manned the runway. Defate
was at bat. He smote a Denver
double to right and two men scored
and the third man went to third.
Again in the second it happened.
Three men again were on the bags.
This time Charlie Hanford was at
bat His job was thorough. He
cracked a triple to deep center and
three men counted.
Two Tricks In Fifth.
Donici and Defate turned two
tricks in the fifth. With two men on
base, Donica rapped out a double and
Tony Defate followed with the same
stunt. Donica s double scored two,
as did Defate's.
You can't beat that kind of hitting.
Neither could the Topeks. It was a
cinch. In fact it was such a cinch
that Bill Jackson sent into the game
two new recruits, Catcher McMenemy
and Pitcher Thompson, both of whom'
arrived on the scene yesterday.
Hurls Steady Ball.
Charlie Kopp pitched steady ball,
kept the hits well scattered and was
never in danger. Omaha won in a
walk.
Today the Neekaws will attempt
to evbtain their revenge. A double
header is on the boards today; The
first game will start at 2 o'clock sharp.

CHICAGO HOPES;
GAME TO YANKS
Triple Play by New York and
Bunched Hits Makes East-,
erners Real Conquerors
in West.
Chicago, June 1. A triple play by
New York and bunched hits by the
visitors gave them the first game
of their western invasion from Chi
cago today, 6 to 3.
Baker started the play which
wrecked Chicago's hopes. The bases
were filled, two men had scored and
none was out. Thormahlen had been
replaced on the mound by A. Russell.
On a hit and run, Gandil drove the ball
on a line toward left. Baker ran over
and speared it with his gloved hand,
then threw to Pratt, doubling Felsch.
Before Weaver could get back to first
Pratt threw to Pipp, completing the
triple play. Score:

Note the famous oil fields in practically every county surrounding our High Island property.
The dotted lines on the map are known as hypothetical fault lines, drawn by the government experts
showing the probable trends of production. '
These lines drawn from Humble on the one side and Spindletop on the other converge at High Island,
leading us to believe we will find the great mother pool oh our property.
Oil is found in this district adjacent to great mounds erupted through terrific gas pressure.
The mound at High Island is about forty-eight feet high and covers nearly 2,000 acres. Our prop
erty is near the base of this mound, and we believe we are going to be successul in developing the
greatest oil field yet developed.
This Is Hot a Stock Promotion Scheme in Any Sense of the Word
We are selling quarter-acre tracts of our property for $30 each in order to quickly raise drilling funds.
e
You Hot Only Own Your Property You Share Proportionately in Halt Our Proiits
From All Wells Drilled On Our Entire 1000 Acres
Should your tracts be drilled on, you receive a royalty of one-tenth of all oil or gas received there
from in addition.
There is no way of estimating what the value of these quarter-acre tracts will be in a few months.
Quarter-acres in adjoining fields (purchased for small sums in the pioneer days) have sold later
from $25,000.00 to $50,000.00 each.
