SIOUX CITY PEOPLE DELIGHTED 'With the Professional Ball Played By the Boys From Nebraska Sioux Uity Times, Aug. v: 1 esieruay wus a day after tbe baseball fan's own heart. Two rattling good games, full of brilliant plays and exciting situations, were served up to him red hot at Rivcr nide park, and he had a chance to root and yell to his soul’s full content. The Riversides were on the slate for both games, but they could do no better than break even. They met with a Waterloo in the first game, O’Neill de feating them by good stick work by a score of 11 to 4. But in the game with Coleridge the Sioux Cityhns had things their own way as tar as scores are con cerned, and they evened up Saturday’s defeat by this team to the tune of 6 to 1. A big crowd swarmed out to tbe park to see the games, and it recalled the good old times of league ball in Sioux City. It was an enthusiastic crowd, and it yelled until the grand stand roof rais ed from its supports, and it amused itself with good natured joshing. Every body was satisfied, for with the excep tion of an inniug or two the playing was fast and remarkably free from errors. The O’Neill and Coleridge aggregations were largely constituted of the tame players, among them several of north eastern Nebraska’s stars. A lucky lot of hits at the very opening of the first game of the afternoon gave O’Neill a lead pipe cinch on the victory. The Riversides were unable to hit Noyes effectively, but when the visitors came to bat in their very first inning they jumped on Jack Messerly’s delivery and swatted the ball for a whole handful of hits. When the clouds of dust that the base runners tore up as they raced around the diamond had cleared away, and the yelling of the rooters had ceased, the visitors had five runs to their credit. But this wasn’t all: they repeated the perfoimance in the third and slugged Messerly’s curves for four scores more, a total of nine, while the Riversides could count only a meagre little single. Messerly was in the box for the first time this season, going there because of the scarcity of box material in the ranks of the Riversides, lie stayed for only four innings, and in this time the Ne braskans pouuded out nine hits and scored four runs. On the other hand Noyes was effective, and kept his hits well scattered throughout the game, per mitting only nine altogether off of his delivery during the nine innings. After the fourth inning Paul lloffman went into the box, doing good work and keep | ing the hits down to less than a half | dozen. The Riversides made their first rnn in the second, when it looked for a time as though they had on a batting streak; but their joy was of only short duration, they scored again in the fifth and sixth, lu the seventh Bruggeman saved a shut out by an elegant steal from Becond to home on Gretchel’s out at first base. After the fatal first and third innings, the visitors were unable to get in more than two runs. Brilliant plays abounded all through the game, and the fielding was close and clean. Long flies were handled on the run in elegant style, and the shortstop and third baseman for both teams made repeated good stops and quick throws. O'Donnell carried off the batting honors with two doubles and two singles. Wood captured a double and a single. Alberts made four singles and two runs. Llanley got two siugles. The lineup and score by innings were H8 follows: lliversiJes—McCarner, first base; Mar tiu, second base; Muecke, third base; Yeager, shortstop; Pecaut, left field; Gretchel, center field; Youngren, right field; Bruggetnan,catcher; Messerly and P. Iloflmau, pitchers. O’Neill—11. Morrison, first base; Zink second base; Alberts, third base; Klefl uer, shortstop; Stone, left field; O’Don nell, center held; ilauley, right field; Wood, catcher; Noyes, pitcher. Riversides.0 100 11 10 0— 4 O’Neill.5 0 4 0 1 0 1 0 *—11 In speaking of the Suuday excursion the Sioux City Times has the following to say about the O’Neill contingent that accompanied the ball team: ‘‘O'Neill turned out the biggest crowd, Nearly 150 of its people came in to accompany the crack O’Neill ball team and root for it as it tried conclusions wi.h the River side aggregation. They filled a section of the grand stand and yelled like mad while their team poun.led out a victory. The remaining 250 excursionists were pretty evenly divided among the other I towns along the line of railway.” Walt Rathbone has purchased a Fair banks Morse Gas engine for his laundry. W. H. Greeley was in the city Tues day ou his way home to Vermillion, ». I) , after spending a couple of weeks visiting his pareuts at Phoenix. T. J.

The ball game yesterday afternoon between O’Neill and Atkinson was so slow and unintesesting that many of the spectators went to sleep watching it. Three of the Atkinson team were absent and their places were filled by outsiders. Atkinson played poor ball, so did O’Neill aud at the end of the eighth inning the score was as follows: O’Neill.3 3 0 1 2 0 1—10 Atkinson .1 1 0000 2— 4 Sioux City Times: Will Whitfield, formerly of Sioux City, was shaking hands with some of his many friends in this city yesteiday, having come over with the O’Neill base ball team. Mr. Whitfield has not forgotten what he knew about base ball when he played with the Little Siouxs and the Tutti Frntlis, and he plays every once in a while with the O’Neill team. He was formerly in the employ of Davidson Bros, and went to O’Neill for liis health. Program for Long Pine Chautauqua. Aug. 11, 8 p. in., Address of Welcome by Itev. P. H. Kighmy. Aug. 12, Field Day.
