You sco tho'Omahas thought they had a
flcad uasy thing of It and they could do about
us they saw proper. But that's when the
Davenports fooled 'urn. And remember , too ,
the porrloss buttery , Lovett and Nugle , ofll-
elated for the homo team. But , that , nor
nltputro could have saved them. They were
Whipped cleanly , beautifully , incontinently ,
and that's the whole story.
The snmll crowd who witnessed the fight
Blghcd disgustedly as the second run cumo
ambling nonchalantly in in the last innings ,
und everybody got up and went homo with
A look upon their faces as if they had been
stealing chickens and got caught at it.
like Thursday's game that of yesterday was
lazy , listless , uninteresting , mid the thrco
hundred people present never attempted once
to make the welkin ring. They were satis-
fled to sit lust like so many wooden Indians
and stuio blankly out into the Held before

It didn't require but a moment to rctiro the

two first went out on little pushes to the in
field , while Jack died on n high foul to old
Dick Dwycr. For the babies. Forstor sig
nalized their halt by banging the atmosphere
throe very cruel blows , and Fisher and Mc-
Cuuley were ilolded out to O'Connell.
In the second P. Os. ' high lly , which a
Kan ought to have caught with
both logs shut and his eyes tied behind
his back , was muffed by Doran.
He might as well have caught It , though.be-
causa O'Connell was doubled uii by Cooncy's
flrive to Forster , and Patsoy Oliver Jhcd out
to McCullom. Mayor was the 11 rat of the
Infants to face the unconquerable Lovett in
their half , and for his patience in waiting for
ball ho got his base on five bad ones. It
Isn't often Lovott docs that. McCullom per
ished on a high foul hundsomoly caught by
O'ConnolL Then Mayor skipped clear round
to third on a wild pitch. Do run then eamo
forward and drove ono with a uuino on it at
Coonoy , but Coonay caught it and 111(0 a shot
flrovo it homo to Naglo to cut Meyer off ,
trho had broke for homo the second
end Doran's but collided with thn sphere.
It was a good throwand a close decision , but
M fair one. Meyer crossed the plate in safety.
The Oiuanaa were not ruffled at this. It won
too small a matter. When they got ready
they'd go In and hammer out anough runs to
Trin ana that's all they wanted. So they con *
tlnued to dilly-dally along until the sixth ,
when Lovott begun the nuislo wlt'.i a crack *

nd a few small boys on the bleach Ing boards
quealed with ecstucy. It tlcxlcd them to

ens , Instead of firing the batter out at first ,
caught the nudncious Scottish hard trying to
make third on the hit , so ho and Doran and
Foster got after him and ran him down.
1'oxy Crooks didn't mince matters , but went
right to work und corked out rfdandy single to
center , but spoiled it by being caught trying
to purloin second. P. O. followed imrae-
dlatoly after with a clean ono to right , but ho
got no further , for Coonoy died on n pop-up
tol-oster , Antiis In the meantime coming
home.
Well , Omaha had the lead by ono run , and
that's all she wanted. They had too much
feeling for the babies , and didn't want to rub
it in on them.
At last the fatal ninth came round , and
after the Omulms hud been neatly done for
the babies came in for their closing whack.
Fisher began the business by catching the
first ball pitched squaroon the proboscis nnd
lifting it out over Annis nnd McGurr's heads
for two cushions. That looked rather omin
ous , but it wasn't a marker for what was to
follow. Mi Cauley came next , nnd ns won
derful as it seeing , ho whanged the first ball
pitched to him right out to the same spot
where Fisher's had gone. Of course this
sent Fisher homo. The nudicneo began to
fidget uneasily in their seats. Some strange
Indefinable prescience- told them of com1
ing disaster. Meyer was the next
man , and , you must believe it , because it is
gospel , ho hit the llrst ball sent to him such
n crack that it screamed right out loud and
.kept yelling for help at the top of its lungs as
it tore through the air out toward the center
Held fence ajmost on a line with the center
Holder's head. McCaulcy galloped homo and
the game was won , and you ought to have

fearful drubbing to-day. The homo club put

notwithstanding the splendid support the

visitors got only two runs out of ten base
hits. In that inning the visitors pounded
Gelst for nlno runs. That settled it of
course. Geist was taken out of the box and
ileccius taken from third base to pitch , but
the game wus hopeless. After the sixth in

THE ATTRACTION FOR THE WEEK.
The IJoyd Will Ha Open Every

Soldier" to Delimit Omaha's
Playgoers.
The Remodeled Grand.
The Grand opera house will bo reopened
on ( .next Monday for the season. It
will present an appearance wniuh will strike
with surprise every ono of its patrons of
last year. The hanging of the boxes on the
side have been removed and in their place
the enlarged gallery , which now sweeps in a
majestic curve , rests. This gallery has been
slanted so that every scat in it has a beauti
ful view of every part of the stacc. It ex
tends over what was the old landing nnd
stairway inside the entrance as also over the
space which was formerly occupied by sev
eral rows of seats. The latter have been re
moved so that there is now a largo spaca be
tween the entrance and the last row of
chairs. This will be carpeted and used
ns a foyer and its walls will bo hung with
choice engravings and portraits. The scatt
have been upholstered in plush , u chance
from the leather of last year , wh oh will be
greatly appreciated. By those changes the
interior assumes more of the appearance of
an opera house than it hud before , und at the
same time brings almost every auditor nearer
to the stage.
An inner circling or matched .vood has
been constructed for acoustic effects ,
nnd this has been beautifully decorated.
The massive roof beams have also received
the attention of the artist and now show
ornamentation of gilding and bright
colors. The nroscenlum boxes of last year
have been retained and the walls around
them have undergone considerable transformation
mation , the mouldings and panels showing
up brilliantly in gold , silver nnd bronze. On
the large space over the box entrances are
IKirtraits of Mendelssohn nnd Beethoven ,
while above the stage arch there are designs
symbolic of both music nnd the drama.
The seating capacity of the house is 1K > 0.
J. C. Crawford remains ns manager , J. W.
Miner , well known in this city , will act as
treasurer , with Kd Goodman , who filled the
sutno place last year , as assistant treasurer.
The Wife.
Expectations run hih in regard to Mr.
Daniel Frohman's Lyceum theater company ,
from its own theater in New York City , in
"Tho Wife " Bc-
their phenomenal success , , -
lasco and DeMllle's American society comedy
drama at Boyd's opera house for three night's
commencing to-morrow ( Monday ) evening.
U is positively announced the production of
the play here will in every manner bo as com
plete as was seen nttbo Lyceum theater , Now
York , for 2M nights , and at the Baldwin tho-
utnr , San Francisco , for llfty nights. The
members of the company who will appear in
"Tho Wife" are Hubert ICclcoy , Henry Mil
ler , Nelson Wheatcroft . J. Lc .Nloyno ,
Charles Walcott , William Faverslmm ,
Charles Dicksoh , Walter Bellows , Georgia
Cayvau , Louise Dillon , Grace Henderson ,
May Hobson , Ollvo Brooks , .Mrs. Charles
Walcott and Mrs. Thomas Whlffene. "The
Wlfo" claimed . to bo a bold nnd breezy
satire on society , which everybody relishes
and society enjoys. It Is doubtful whether
any dramatic company and play have ever re
ceived the high cnconlums accorded "Tho
Wife. "
At the Grand.
Tno opening attraction hat been most
wisely selected by Manager Crawford. Ho
selected from among many competing for the
honor Manager E. E. Rice's company , who
will produce the richly-dressed and Intently
interesting and entertaining opera of "Con
rad , the Corsair. " Among tint leading people
of this 4taf company in Fay Toinpleton , who
opened the Boyd , and who now participates
in the opening of the new Gran a. She will
be received with much favor , as also will
Louise Montague , Gcorgo S. Knight , Liln
Blair , George Fortescuo and other favorites
whom Manager Hice lias surrounded himself
with. The reserved seat sale yesterday was
large , and those who want desirable scats
should make early application at the box
ofllce to-morrow.
The Eden Miisec.
Under the management of Sackett and
Lawler , whoso efforts last season wcro so
successful in rendering the Eden Musoc a
popular resort , this place of amusement
will open for the season to-day under the di
rection of the same gentlemen. For the
opening performance and throughout the

engaged and will perform in the thcatorium ,
while in the curio hall objects of rare inteiest
will bo exhibited. Novelties arc announced

Tin Soldier , " which is ono of that prolific
authors best works , will open at Boyd's opera
house on Thursday , September 0 , continuing

run. Seats go on sale Wednesday morning.
