UNDAY AFTER
NOON AT PARK
A Very Close and Exciting Game, bpt
the Red Sox Were Winners by
a Score of 3 to 2.
Yesterday the Red Sox of this city
added to their list of victories in tak
ing a fast and interesting contest
from the John Deere Plow company
team of the metropolis by a score of 3
to 2. and the struggle was one of the
shortest seen on the local grounds this
year, being only an hour and a half
in duration, and was also free from
the usual amount of disputes, as both
sides accepted the decisions of Um
pire Mann without indulging in any
rag-chewing, although several close
decisions were tendered that affected
both sides.. Clarence Beal, the fieet
footed center fielder of the crimson
hose, secured new laurels for himself
in the game in the number of pilfered
bases.
The opening innings of the eentes
were decidedly in the nature of
hurlor's duel between "Bobbie
Greko of the Sox and Peterson, the
mound arti.-t of the Deers, with
honors evenly divided, as the fielding
of the Decis .saved their pitcher from
a large count being made off his d
livery, while Greko took a number of
the visitors on his list and whiffed
them.
The fourth frame of the battle
opened with a rather dark and gloomy
outlook for the Hose, when after Dodd
had been railroaded, Greko to Craig,
Lee was given a pass to the first sack
and advanced when Cotter hit safe to
right, Peterson was out on a fly to
light field, and then the mighty G
Munsky was able to deliver a hit to
short left on which Lee dashed for the
riate, but was caught several feet
from home, retiring the side.
in tne box s nan ot the inning
Beal, fii.t up, hit safe over the sec
ond station and advanced on the
sacrifice of Parriott, and when Parker
hit to short and Dodd failed to handle
the hit, he dashed on into home, reg
istering the first run of the game
Heiald was out on a grounder to
Peterson, while Mason fanned the
air.
In the sixth inning Beal was again
the star in the game in scoring, but
was assisted by the demoralized im
plement dealers, who wildly threw the
ball over the diamond without regard
to fielding. He hit out a fly to left
and when the second sacker of the
visitors wildly heaved the ball in the
direction of third, annexed that base
and continued on home. This was the
extent of the scoring of the members
of the Johnson aggregation, however,
for this inning.
On the opening of the seventh the
visitors proceeded to tie the score,
when the Sox indulged in a little
ascension after two of the Deere
players had been safely put away.
Matthews, the lengthy street car
magnate, secured his only hit of the
game in this inning on a safety to
right, and was followed by Nystrom,
who was struck in a tender part of
his anatomy by one of the slants of
Greko, and then G. Munsky, the head
of the batting list of the visitors,
made a safety to left that brought in
two runs, as the Sox were unable to
decide where to throw the pill and
Arries wildly heaved to the grand
stand, allow the plow followers to
scoie the tieing run.
The fans were cheered greatly,
however, in the last half of the
seventh, when the Sox regained their
lead. Craig retired on a fly to the
second sack, and was followed by
Louie Smith, the second Sam Craw
ford, who hit' safely to left, but was
nipped at the second station on the
infield hit of Arries to third, but
Byron was safe at the initial sack.
Gieko won the game with a timely
poke to third base that brought Arries
home with the third score of the bat-
tic, but was thrown out at second
himself.

THE ATHLETICS GET
. TRIMMED SATUR
DAY AFTERNOON
Saturday afternoon the Athletic
base ball team of this city ran up
against a snag at the Red Sox park in
the aggregation representing the Mc
Graw company of Omaha, and when
the smoke of battle rolled away the
Omaha lads were the winners of the
contest by a score of 11 to 2. The
game was unlortunately not ad
advertised, as the date was not se
cured until noon, and as a result there
was not a large crowd present to wit
ness the affray. The McGraws are
quite a fast organization of ball play
ers, and with them was Pete Lyck,
one of the fast players of the state
league. The Athletics were outclass
ed in every department of the game
and succumbed to the assault of the
Omaha ball tossers. The boys hope in
the near future to have Tom Noonan
and his fast bunch of players return
for another game and will endeavor
to bring home the bacon by defeating
the visitors. The McGraws are a
gentlemanly bunch of boys and it was
a real pleasure to have them visit the
city, even if the locals were humiliat
ed by such a decisive score.

KELLY NEWLY WED
GIVEN A SURPRISE
On Saturday evening the home of
Mr. and Mrs. William J. Kelly, a few
miles south of Cedar Creek, was made
the scene of a most happy surprise,
when some thirty of the friends and
neighbors of this newly wedded couple
j came in and took the Kelly home by
storm and completely surprised the
newly weds, who were not aware that
such a move was contemplated. Mr.
and Mrs. Kelly were married in this
city last Wednesday and this was the
first opportunity given to tender them
a reception. The visitors came laden
with a large number of presents for
the happy young people, which will
be treasured by them in the years to
come as remembrances of their
friends. The evening was spent in
playing games, as well as in vocal and
instrumental music, which made the
time pass most pleasantly, and it was
an occasion that will be fondly re
membered by all those fortunate
enough to attend. At a suitable hour
the jolly party of invaders produced
?arge, well filled baskets of the good
things to eat and a luncheon was
spread that was fit Tor a king, and
all did ample justice to it. It was a
late hour when the guests departed
for their homes, wishing Mr. and Mrs.
Kelly many years of happiness. Mrs.
Kelly was formerly Miss Marie Jir
ousek of this city.
