Although the Colts do not be- long to time National league , still it is not because they cannot play as veil but for the simple reason 'lk that they havn't the practice , timc and bear the name of amatcur. The Omaha team certainly had a surprise which lasted during the entire I.mme 1\tcsday. The extraordinary manner in which Rueggc pitched the sphere and the wonderful quality of Po- teet with the mit certainly pro- duccd a sensation among the league paj'ers.tl'hen. ! . when Scars the first man up featured . ( ' . by knocking a home run with thc first ball tossed by Leibhardt they commenced thinkin ? . G I in i c s made a lovely hit in the fourth inning , while Cornell mad e a " peach ) " catch in the fifth in- .ning' . Whcncvcr anyone can beat : . . . . , Foehlinger and Foster stealing bases wc just wish they would notifiy us , as they did excellent work both on bases and in their positions in the team. Jarrott threw in a pretty drive from right field , while Heck covered second to a finish. Scores were run in . by Scars , Poteet , Foster and . ' . H'ochlinger.

Oma- ha has a good team but with a . little practice thc Colts could sur- pass them and not over exert heI11RCh'c arrott is a capital pitcher but he will have to stut- ter when Gus goes in thc box. A good double was made bj' Fodc ' and Heck , Scars blade an excellent - lent catch in left field and Potcet 'i came in with a two base hit. Rucggc should do the high dive act from the way hc took a header - er over the hedge after thc ball 4. . . in the 3rd inning and cut a man out of an otherwise home run. Scores were made by Foster , J ar- rott , Rucgge.

It was thc first time we knew that the game was played } hy thc umpire , but of course since ( Vcrdon has no ball players with thc exception of a few imported affairs we will have to overlook such trincs. Parrish thc dark t spot and Bumn thc bunch of atmosphere - mosphere came down from Tc- cumsch and did the battery work for the village of Vcrdon. Pax- ton pitched one ; of thc prettiest games of the season while Potcct . . ' , stood behind the man at thc bat. \Vhenc\'er Vcrdon becomes thc possessor of nine ball players : then their umpire wont ha\e : to put down alt thc score marks. By thc way what is thc date , for thc game between Vcrdon and , thc National League team ? Lawn Contest Closed.
