LOSE ANOTHER
This Game to the Shamrocks of
South Omaha by Score of 5 to
4 Very Good Game.
In a n exciting and war-like
Boosters suffered do feu t at the
(Misters suffered defeat at the
hands of the South Omaha Sham
rocks liy a score of 5 to . There
were several altercation during
the game between the players and
the umpire, as well as between
the members of the opposing
teams and for a time it seemed
the contest would be as scrappy
as the recent, game between Oma
ha and Denver, in which a gen
eral mix-up was indulged in.
Such exhibitions are not calculat
ed to increase the attendance and
detracted yesterday from a very
good game of ball, although the
victory of the Shamrocks was due
largely to errors on the part of,
the locals.
The visitors started scoring in!
the opening stanza, when May
field, a former Mink league star,;
and noted for his crabbing, led
off with a single to left, took sec-j
ond on ('aide's wild throw and
scored in 1he same way. Again in'
the second the beef trust, gang'
rung up a run. Sullivan was
beamed in the side by Connor,
took second on a passed ball by
Carle, stole third, and came home
when Ryan knocked a fly to left1
Held.
The Boosters secured their tlrst
run in the fifth inning, when Con
nor connected with one of I-'lelrh,
er's slants and secured a single,
but was forced at second by Ma
son's hit. Mason stole second
and was sacrificed to third by
Carle and scored on an error by
Ryan at first. The eighth was the
big inning fop the Boosters," as
Ileal, the tlrsl, man up, secured
first, on an error, and successive
singles by Smith, Salsburg and
(iobelman netted three runs.
Mann was the victim of the um
pire's misjudgment, when he was
denied a base on balls and bad he
been given bis base it would have
given the victory to the local
team.
The vi.-dors secured a run in
the sixth on Yost's double and
Ault's fielders' choice, and won
the contest in the tenth inning,
when Clark singled to center and
advanced to third on Sullivan's
bit, scoring when Smith failed to
get Ryan's fly ball.
The fielding of Mayliebl for
the visitors and Real for the
locals were the features of the
game, both taking all kinds of
chances and getting away with
them.
The abuse of players by the
auidenee is something they
should be more careful of in the
future, as simply because a team
is visiting here is no reason why
they should be insulted. A good
natured roast is all right, but the
applying of names to (be players
is something altogether different
and should not be allowed. The

best machine of its kind on the

one to Sidney, New South Wales,
for the manufacture of these
rapidly increasing dainties. The
machines are manufactured by
Mr. Sharp at his plant, in Omaha,

they have been tried hey have
proven a big success. Mr. Sharpo
experimented for four years with
all types of machines and de

Flat lied machine, a semi-aufo-nialie
machine capable of baking
I fiO cones at a time. Experts
have declared it to be the most
ingenious machine ever devised
for baking both inside and out
side simultaneously a conical
shaped pastry cup: heretofore
cones have been made largely of
a wafer variety, containing no
sugar, for the reason that the
sugar would cause the cones to
stick in the mould. The Sharpe
machine has overcome this dif
ficulty and rones can be made
with any sugar content and of a
seamless variety which do not

Yesterday the second base ball
team of this city was successful

score of 10 lo 'i in a seven-inning
game, and the boys from this city
pul up a very fast game, getting
twelve hits off the Murray pitcher,
while Hula for the locals only al
lowed live hits. The features of
the game were the pitching of
Hula and the balling of the
Platlsmoulh boys, llallie Perry of
the locals securing a home run to
left field which brought in two
scores. There was considerable
dissatisfaction over the settle
ment of the expanses, as Murray
insisted on tho boys playing out
Hie nine innings, which they
were unable to do, as many of
them had to return on the !i
o'clock train, and as Ihe Murray
boys refused to pay for anything

Saturday evening about 9
o'clock, in Omaha, occurred the
death of Stephen Beckner, one of
the leading farmers of near Mur

on about a month ago for ap

in Omaha and was thought to be
gelling along nicely and returned
to his home about two weeks ago,
but his condition did not improve
and he was sent lo Inimanuel
hospital in Omaha for treatment,
but did not seem to rally and he
gradually grew worse until his
death occurred. A more extended
biographical sketch of the de
parted citizen will appear later in
these columns.
Mr. Heckner leaves his wife and
a little babe four weeks' old to
