Denver 12 , Oinnlm Jl.
Did j ou go out to the hall parkyestcrday te
BCO the flret mime between Omaha and Den
ver ? No !
Ifappyman ! You have no reason to Itlch
yourself.
Some fifteen hundred people did go out ,
however , and after the game each and every
ouo of them swore that the other was a
Jonnh.
Hut they were nil wrong. All the mascots
on this preen footstool couldn't have saved
the day for Omaha , for the game she put up
was the rafrgcdest and the worst she has tn-
gaged In this season.
The changing around of the men may have
had something todo with the awful lamhast-
ing , still that is a lame excuse , and the correct
way Is to acknowledge the com Denver w as
about eight men too many for us. Possibly
Captain Andrews' pets might have whipped
ono or even two of the visitors , with the par-
Utility of the umpire , but it Is doubtful.
Cleveland did not play and Cnnavan tooli
his place , llincs Illllng loft and Urquahart
right.
However , as to tlio game.
It opened up with much glitter and dash on
the part of Omaha , and most cvctybody
thought wo were sure of a victory. Willis
took his base on balls , but was foicedoutat
second by Canavan , and Canavan ,
on Keams' out at first , made
second. Then AVnllyViuhews gave his
trousers nn extra hitch , mid pulling up a tele
phone polo by the roots walked up to the
plato and hit ono of Mr. MeNubb's tw Isters
way out against the light Held fences , for a
couple of bases.
Of couiso Cnnavan came home , and "hoy !
hovl liovl" ciicd the pcoiilf in ecstasy
Walsh rotlied the side by u pop up to
White
McClelland , the flist man up for Denver ,
also got his base on balls.
That was horse an' horse on the pitcheis.
Then , just like Willis , ho was foiced out at
second by Trciulway , but the simllaiity in the
innings closed light heic , for Canavan tooKin
Cuitis'fly and lired the ball across the diamond
mend In time to catch Trcadway , too.
That was biilllant , and a few moio bales of
hey ! hey 1 hey ! w'as launched upon the ambi
ent atmospheic.
McNabb. vs ho by the wav pitched a splen
did game tliioughout , quickly fanned Uniua-
hait and Hint's in the second , and Muran How
out to Cm Us.
Dave Uowo at this Junctuio made his debut
for Denver , and tlio llist bail pitched ho sent
whl/7lng nut into right for a single. But n
.sharp double pi ly blasted ids hopes and ho
was as mad as a moist hen.
This Is the wav it was done.
WhitohittoWalshjand.ToethrowtoKcariis ,
catching David at second , and Kcains tlnew
toAndiowsnnd both weio out. That wus
nice.

McGlono went out fiom Canavan to first
In the thlid Claiko started the music with
n f afo hit to light. Ho stole second in
beauteous style , and on White's fumble of
Willis' hit , hoian home , while Tit went to
second.
Then the spectators clapped their little
bunds bomo more and laughed long and
hcaillly.
They were so tickled. *
Cunavan , who had left his good ev oat the
optician's for repairs , hit the air three suc
cessive body blow s and sat down. Koains
drove one at White , w ho snatched it up like
a picco of pie , and by a quiet , uc-
curuto throw caught Willis nt the plate. An
drews hit a long high ono to Tiedway , and
Trcdway toolc it In , and the Delivers came infer
for another whiil lit the but.
AVliitoheud made a hit , but was thrown out
in tin attempt to steal second. Then Keai ns
tinQwLobeek out. and Cannvan attended to
Mr. McNabb , Andiows making a phenomenal
left-handed catch of this throw that brought
down the stands.
Again in the fourth Omaha got In a run ,
then they quit , and the other fellows did the
waltzing lound the lines.
Walsh and Uiquuhart hit safe , Walsh
reaching thild on the hitters drive , and
stealing home , after Lobeck hud thrown Ur-
miahart out ut second. llincs and Moran
fell easy victims , and hero begins our tale of
woo.
In the visitors' half McClelland led off
with a two-bugger , and on Tied's out at
first ho reached thiid.
Clink then recovered Cm Us' haidhltin
tlmo to throw him out easily , but ho threw
wild to Wally , and Mao scored vvhilo Cuitis
stopped at second. Dave Kowo then hap
pened along , and catching ono just where ho
wanted it ho diovo it like a shot out toward
Urquahart. Uiquahart made for it , but ho
caught his feet In his glove , the ball got by
him , Curtis scampered homo , and David too ,
anil the grand stand howled In doiision.
White was tin own out at first by Cunavan ,
and it looked as if It wouldn't bonnj. thing
worse than a tie after all. But appearances
are deceptive. Lilco Cuitis , McGlono hit to
Clarlte , and again Dad thiow wild to Wally ,
and Man kept on going till ho reached second.
A pass ball st-nt him to tlihd , and Urqun-
butt's easy lly let him homo and the batter to
third.
I.oboek , ended the Inquisition by striking
out.
out.Tho
The fifth was a blank for both sidesas was
the sixth for Omaha , but not for Denver. Oh ,
no ; they only collnn-d u quintette of llttlo
pc-aily tallies , enough to win an ordinarily
well plnjed game.
Cuitis hit safe , and on Howe's double went
to thlid. ICearns' fumble gave White u life ,
and on McGlono's single dilvo the two llrbt
came in and White to thiul. AVhitohead hit
to Claike , and Clarke throw McUlonoout at
second. Lobook followed with a long lly to
Willis and Willis mlssod It , and Whltehead
and the batter crossed the plato. NcNabb
flow out to Cltuko ,
It was ono , two , tlnxo from this on to the
dreary , dlsniid , melancholy close , so far as
Onmlm win concerned , but In their half of
the eighth Denver , Just as n sort of u cap for
the "Umax , made tnrve more homo runs.
iVhlto went out to Kcains , McGlono hit
safe and stole second. White-head was ex
tinguished frOm Kcains to Hint , then Iliiuvs
missed a lly from Uobu-k'b bat than any child
should have caught , and McGlono reached
second. McNabb made a three-sucker and
Lohcck scored , and on McClcllaiuVs safe rap
McNabb scored. Then Tmlvvuy , with his
big Indian hcait buistingwith compassion ,
stiuck out and the game was ov or.

Louisviu r , Nob. , May " . [ Special to THE
Brp. ] The Bauer C.ISQ has again como to tlio
front in n ncculiar manner. A shoit icsuino
of the c.130 is in oider. Mr. J. II. Bauer , at
onetime a wealthy German farmer near here ,
took a young gill named Culhoun , n niece , to
ralso. This spiing she gave bitth to an illc-
gitlimtc child. Busjbodies began to talkand
blamed the matter on Mr. Bauer. The girl
w as taken over into Iowa , w hero she w as
sent to the icfoim school. The community
was uivlded in opinion as to the guilt or inuo-
ccncoof Mr. Bimer. The giand Jury was
impanelled , and Mr. Bauer surpiised his
friends by disposing of ills farm and valuable
stone quany , woith $15,000 to jJO,000 , for
for about i)00 ( , and leaving. The grand
juiy completely exoneiated Mr. Bauer , but
found an indictment against another paity.
In fact his only son , Albeit Bailer , was in
dicted as the leal eiiminnl. Mr. Bauer's
fiicnds claim that ho was icndeied ne.uly in
sane by designing individuals who vvuioin-
teiested in the matter , who told him the
gul had swoin that ho outraged her and that
ho would bo sent to the penitentiary , etc ,
and made life a buulen to him , and w hen the
grand jury was convened ho was infoimcd of
the fact and told that if ho didn't sell and
skip theie w ould bo no help for him. lie dis
posed ( some say ho was robbed ) of cvcrj-
thing ho had for a song and left w ith his son.
After the giand juiy adjomned Mr. Bauer
letmned and went to a farmer's near lieie , a
former fiicnd and neighbor. In the mean
time ono A. G. Cllnc , a justice of the pence ,
had asked to bo and was appointed guaidian
of the gul. On leauiing that Bauer was
near Lonisiillo ho had him biought to town
by a constable last Saturday mousing. Ho
then made a pioposition to Mr. Bauer that if
he w ould nay him S2.000 ho would not piose-
cutc him , but iflio did not he would send him
over the 10 id. Sir. Bauer i of used to pay the
money , saj ing ho had committed no eiirao.
Mr. Bauer was held all day w. ithout a war
rant until a constable came up from Platts- >
mouth , who anested him on the chaigo , of
being a fugitive Iroin justice , and placed him
In the countv jail at Plattsniouth. Monday
moining his attorneys applied for a writ
of habeas coipus and had a hcaungboforo his
honor , S. M. Chapman which resulted m his
leleaso. The coutt. in dclivciing his opinion ,
used pietty strong language , and amongother
things said : "This couit has personal knowl
edge of many thlngb connected with this
matter , and knows how it was imposed upon
and decohcd in calling n giand juiy to m-

How Lord Churchill , "Caught" the
House of Commons.
All remember tlio sensational debut of
Disruoli us u imiiinmontnry orntor , how
ho said when jeered : "Novor mind , tlto
day will como when you will hear mo. "
Lord Randolph Churchill hud an easier -
ior time. His path wua metaphorically
strew n with roaos.
His maiden speech was delivered In
the house of commons In the spring of
1871. Gladstone had attacked the Indian
policy of Disruoli , who had not yet boon
made earl of Beaconsflold. The great
liberal leader was never in better vein
than on that occasion , and ho slashed
right and left in the most savage way.
It was about the tlmo that the queen was
being made empress of India , and this
act gave the opposition an opportunity
which finally ended in their riji's over
throw.
No ono Boomed ready to answer Mr.
Gladstone's attack , and tlicro was the
usual subdued murmur whqn a deliber
ate body docs not quito know w hat to do ,
All nt once n boyish-looking joung fol
low took oft his hat , arose and began to
spank. Ho looked extremely slight and
youthful , and every ono supposed it
would bo the usual thing with u debu
tant a few words disconnected , bomo
halting am ] indecision and then a break
down and an ignominious failure.
To attack Gladstone ! Why , it was
Apollo attacking Great Jovo. So every
one took n comfortable seat and got
ready to laugh. But llio lime for laughter -
tor did not como. With perfect coolness
the joutliful speaker answ 01 ed the state
ments of Mr. Gladbtonc. Then suddenly
changing his btylo and argumdnt ho
began a defense of the coiison ativo pol
icy and its leader.
Just then , faultlessly clad in evening
dress , and with a nriimono in his but
tonhole , Disiacli came into the room
with an impabsh cncss that covered his
features like a mask. Ho listened an
instant and an appearance of interest
came into his faco.
( Jluu chill went on , and when ho
w ound up with a brilliant peroration ,
the English parliament perceived that
the conservative side had an addition
that would bo valuable , and the house
mng witli delighted cheers. Next morn
ing ho was famous.
ENGLISH HATS AND SUITS.
There's Nothing to Equal a Tailor-
Made nt This Season.
Ono bonnet that wo saw was made of
two or three green leaves. That was the
smallest , but others wore very nearly as
tiny , writes Madge in London Truth.
Ono was composed of a big yellow poppy
and ono bud. Quito a third of tbo whole
collection consisted of cither violets or
lilno. The hats wore quiet and small ,
for the most part , though there wore
some very largo ones. A very tall
woman wore ono of the latter , perched
at a "Duchess of Devonshire" angle.
She had cleverly managed bo that it
added hardly an Inch to her height and
was yet an Imposing coilluro with its
weight of black ostrich plumes.
Tlio small toques with velvet turban
brims that were worn with tailor-made
drobbes were very becoming. oThoro w ere
any number of tweed costumes with severe -
voro bodices and skh ts and immaculate
linen collars. Theic is nothing to equal
v tailor-mado at this season. Some of
; ho plain skirts were excessively sloppy ,
[ must admit. Why cannot people fol-
ow simplicity without hunting it to
death ?
The man-made tweeds , on the other
land , woio all sinait and trim. With
