CEDAR GREEK DOWNS
GREENWOOD SATURDAY
The Cedar Creek Colts Add Two
More Scalps to Their Long
List of Victories.
Cedar Creek motored out to
Greenwood Saturday and copped
a scalp from that aggregation in
a sensational game. It was in
deed a pitchers' battle, and was
evenly divided up to the last in
ning, when Howard weakened
slightly and allowed three hits,
and these, coupled with an error,
gave the Colts three runs and the
game. Kelly was first up and
gained a life on an error, and it
was here where our third packer,
Jap, came to our rescue and swat
ted the sphere for two bases and
put Kelly on third. Gotsch then
hit for a single and scored Kelly
and Jap. Dugan followed with
another single and scored Gotsch.
There was not a base stolen on
either side, which would indicate
the cleverness of the slabmen and
the accuracy of the catchers'
pegs. The game was a clean one
from start to finish and the visit
ors were given much credit for
the gameness they displayed by
fighting an up-hill battle to a
finish and winning in the last ses
sion by the narrow margin of one
score. Mot Wood umpired one of
the best games of the season, to
the satisfaction of both teams.
Batteries Greenwood, Howard
and G. rturess; Cedar Crook, Con
nor and Wolff. Struck Out Hy
Howard, 12; by Connor, 9. Rase
Hits Off Howard, 7; off Connor,
5. Base on Halls Howard. 1.
Sunday on the local diamond
the fast Papillion bunch wore do
feated in one of the fastest gamos
of the season. Connor wont on
the slab again and was tbo whole
show, striking out eighteen of Iho
hard-hitting Sarpy county stars
and allowing but two hits in as
many innings. Schneider, the
first Colt up, drew a pass, went In
second on a sacrifice and scored
on a pretty binglo by Jeff Salberg.
Nothing further happened until
the fourth, when Hlondy Huff
slapped one for a single, only to
go down and out when lie attempt,
od to pilfer second. Wolff's peg
wV! perfect and Hirz never misses
a tliaiiio in tag. Again in the
sixth two scores "osmHimI when
Jlirz was hit b- m "i'oVil l"H ;".)
Kelly hit lor two bases and Jap
followed with a safety, the second
time in the game. Then Walt Sal
berg stepped up and hit over the
center1 fielder's head and made a
dash' that landed' him on third
base, but the preceding runner
would not give up the bag and
Walt, was tagged. The seventh
was our unlucky session, when a
bad throw allowed "Hlondy" to
reach first and ho topk second on
the overthrow, was sacrificed to
third and scored on the second bit
in the game.
-. Ratteries Papillion, Rhid ami
Lerhi; Cedar Creek, Connor and
Wolff. t
Motly Wood Umpired, and he is
to be congratulated for the skill
he showed, being right at the
point where a close play took
place whenever it was necessary.
Molly could certainly stand a
good show with tbo minor leagues,
as he is thoroughly familiar with
the game in all stages.
Sunday, August 6, the Lincoln
THE
basket store ball toam will cross
bats with the Colts on the local
grounds. So if you wish to wit
ness a home product against city
talent come out and see a fast
game. Lofty Connor will be on
the slab again. .

"It was decided to establish two

FIGHT III LIVERPOOL
Troops CailEd Out Mtsr Police
man Is Killed.
Liverpool, Eng., Aug. 14. Serious
rioting, growing out of the strike,
took place here. One policeman was
killed by being .struck on the head
with a brick and many persons were
injured.
An altercation between a policeman
and strikers during a transport work
era' demonstration at St. George's hall
started the trouble, which culminated
in a general melee. When this disor
der had h"en put down and the strlk
ers scattered they gathered again in
the Islington quarter and resumed
their attacks upon the officers with
serious results.
One hundred thousand men were
gathered In groups about St. George's
hall listening to speeches by labor
agitators, ud the scem-s of violence
following tho attack upon policemen
necessitated the calling out of police
reserves. When they arrived one
party of fifteen policemen was sur
rounded and disarmed, the rioters at
tacking them with their own batons
In the fight the commanding officer
of the police was 'dangerously
wounded.
So great was the disorder that the
riot net was rud and troops were
called out to assist the police. The
mob fought dopperntoly with sticks
and stones and, In fact, with nny
handy missile. Gradually, however,
by the combined efforts of the troops
end police, the crowds which were
surrounding "even speakers' platforms
erected on the plateau fronting the
hull, were cleared awny. Many pollen
men and rioters were Injured In the
hand -to-hand fighting. After the fight
St. George's hnll was converted Into
temporary hospital.
Driven from the center of the city,
the crowd aulleniy repaired to tho
Islington q'tnrter, one or the lowest
and roughest !n Liverpool. Here the
police wee baffled In the narrow
streets, for the desperate rioters bar
rleaded themselves In the houses and
volleyed down bricks, slates and
chimney puts from the roofs upon
their heads.

Washington as a Humorist.
While president Washlng,on's humor
seemed to dud expression in the diplo
macy of self protection. A French
revolutionist came to him for a general
testimonial, which VYnshtuton did not

give offense to the French by a' curt
refusal, so he wrote nn evasive card
worth? of Lincoln "C. jlney need

After Cornwallls' surrender at York-

Cards and Card Playing.
In a paper In the Journal of the Roy
al Society of Arts Professor 11. Cheney,
discussing the part played by gambling
In magic, observes: "The use of cards
is said to be derlred from the Turot
cards, which were originally employed
for occult purposes. The legend which
ascribes the Invention of cards to tho.
purpose of amusing a mad king doe
not seem at all a sufficient eiplana- ,
tlon, and there Is In addition the fact
that cards of a kind existed before thai
said king. In further support of tht
ldoa the well known practice of telling
fortunes by cards may probably bo re
garded as a survival of a regular forns
of divination by such means. It seems),
In fact, that card playing for stakes Is
a mere development of a ceremony la
which Individuals consulting tho ora
cle decided to abide by' Its pronounce
ments as to the holding of disputed
property.
Meteors and the Atmosphere.
One of the most useful results aris
ing from the .study of sporadic meteor
Is the light thrown upon the question
of the height of the atmosphere, since
It Is the friction of the air that sets
them ou fire, and If tbelr elevation Is
known at the moment of tbelr first ap
pearance the probable height of the at
mosphere can be calculated. On Aug.
11, iOOU. a brilliant meteor happened
to Impress Its picture simultaneously
on three photographic plates, at Tash
kend, Isk&mW and Tscbltngnn.
Russian Turki-erUn. The distances be
tween these places furnished base lines
from which th height could be de
duced. The calculation shows that the
meteor first appeared nt h height of

peared at fifty in lies.
