Two weeks from Thursday neil find tlio championship season In the Western associa tion will bo on. The Omahas and Milwnu- kocs will be pltUM against each other that afternoon , and ohy I whnt a light they will make. Lost jcar Omaha didn't win a gnmo from the Brewers , that Is , she tlldn't ' Koi a garao from them , despite the fact that she \voa several beyond the shadow of ft suspic ion. That monumental fake , Mr. Hauswlno , robbed us of two right hero on the homo grounds. But lot the past bury Its dead , there arc now battles to bo fought soon , and vhnt , Omaha wants most to do in to win a 'creditable share of them , and under Shannon's Intelligent management there Is but llttlo doubt but what sho-will uo It. To make matters real Inter esting Manager Shannon has already se lected his loam for the opcnlnc day , and say , isn't she a daliyr Twltchell , pitcher , New- nan catcher , Sutcliffe loft , Hnlllgan right , jConnvnn. middle , McCauley , first , Shannon , second , Walsh , short ana Donnelly third.

I consider thcso Raines almost as Important as championship Raines , and will make every effort to win them. " Joe Sulllvnii'H Croat Kind. Norman Baker is a great story teller and ho never lacks for ono to tell. You might as well try to dam Nlacnra with a chunk of corn , bread as to stop the wagging of Nor man's Jaw. "I'll never forsrot the tlmo Joe Sullivan brought down Kddlo Alooro from Boston to pitch for the Nowurlts. Joe said ho was ut of sight ; that ho had the speed of n cata- pault nnd would fool 'cm ' all. This lidded mo Immensely , as I had been doing about all the pitching for the Nownrks and was getting ( toad sore. Ttio day after Joo's pot arrived wo were booked fora game with ihe Doston leaguers , and Sullivan was BO certain of the ability of hlsyoutifrjlnd that the manager nt last concluded to lot me watch the game from the bench and put Kddlo In. O"Kcllcytt3 thoilrstmnn at the hat , and Sullivan began to couch his protege. 'Givehim > our speed now Eddie , that's Kelley , cut , 'om ' right lo < o , ' "Tho boy couldn't pitch a lltllo bit. The ball came over the plate like a freight car on an up era o. Kcllor stsod watching him in sheer pity , and listening to Joo's coaching at the same timo. 'What is It Joe'ho cried. "Then as Eddie doubled himself unln a double bow knot for his deadliest spc ° dand ft lose. Kelley turned to Sullivan and Wed : 44 'There comes tlio ball Joe , shall I hit It when It guts berol1" "Eddlo went back , to Boston that night. " Bnm Olttlo and Voting Ooaslejr , 'Sam Blttlo , the pitcher < is also' a prize fighter of nomoan ability , as you.all know , " said Norman1 Bator to the igang dtiwn at Handle's.last ' nignt. "I was with Toronto ono year with Blttlo , and wo also had young ; Dcaslcv , the pitcher. You know Deasl Ho Imagined , you know , that ho was built for a fighter , and really did put the kibosh on , several ot the team , and was always ready 'or a scrap. Wo Rot a now man ono day , u young atnatour from Toledo , and as ho was a pretty bandy looking customer , Doasloy in vited him , along with a lot of us. up in tiio gymnasium ono afternoon to sco htm "do" tlio stranger. But he couldn't bo induced to put on mils , MthouKh wo all urged him. Blttle , who was Also a now man had only been there a day or two-sympathized with htm other now man and assured him that ho would sco bo got what's right. Deos- ly , you see , didn't know Sam from Adum's off ox , and hearing this assurance of the burly pitcher ho said , 'What's the matter with your putting'em ' on yourself. You nro urty near n man now , and I won't ' hurt you.1 "i.you'11 ' promise not to hit mo bard 1 will.1 _ ild Sara , with a Billy Burnio twinkle In his oyo. 'U ' , don't ho afraid , I won'tdo nnythlni ? more than ] ust poke you a llttlo , but don't you ho a bit backward , hit mo just as hard as you can ; I like it , ' and Dcasloy turned and gave the gang the winlc. _ L'\Vcll , they got up and raised their dukes , and Uoasloy , after making several grand stand nourishes , cried , 'Now , look out , Sam , I'm going to landl' 'That was his last word.

" THE BEE asked Manager Shannon lost night. "I Intend to get the men down to hard work' ' immediately , " ho replied , "I am a thorough advocate of outdoor practice , and tnko but llttlo stock In hand-ball , gymnasium or Indoor practice of any kind ; still If Judiciously in dulged in , It can do no harm. But I remem ber ouo sprint ; I was sorer than I'll over bo again , and It WHS right alter I came out from a long siegu In the gymnasium , too. I am convinced that the only real , simoii mire limbering up is to bo doiivcd from an actual garno of ball , lot It bo with whom it may , amateur or professional , it makes no difference. There you are right at It , und any ono muscle or any sot of mus cles does not got overworked , but receives tbo snmo treat men t they do In an actual conflict in the championship season. " "Then you will endeavor to got In as many Barnes with tha local teams as possible1 !

"If anybody thinks wo haven't Rot a team of hitters and base runuors , why they hod bettor disabuse themselves of the Idea before they bet any money oiitt , for wa have , and a great ouo , too , " and Joe \Vnlsh made a frantic snatch at bis ambryotio moustache , and throwing ono lojj over the arm of his chair , continued : "There's McCauley , Newman , lUlligan , Twitcholl , SutclltTo , Shannon.

Tbo club extends a cordlnl invitation to nil Interested to bo present. ' There has boon mention made In this city and also in the American Field to the effect that tbo Omaha kennel club Intended giving a bench show seine time In April or May next. This Is a mistake. The clun is not prepared to give a show before next season , as the members have not bad a suflicleut tlmo to get things In shape. Their first ex hibit shall bo under the American kennel club rules , and Judged by n regular American ken nel club judge , witb not lens than $50(1 ( as prize money. Another New Club. Tnat Omaha Is not behind tbo times in anything is an ostaollshcd fact. Sha now has a poultry association.1 The "Omaha Poultry Fanciers Club" organized March 23.

T ho correct idea , Kansas City and Minneapolis will play ox- oxhlbltlon Ramos this week In St. Joe , Topeka - poka , Atchisoa and Moborly. If Manager Shannon had been ono day later "Old Cy" Sutchfto would have gouo to the Cincinnati IOURUO team. Clark Grinith is still hanging flro with the Milwaukee club. The only trouble with Grinith is that ho Is too purty. Jack Sheridan bos signed a contract to um pire for tbo California league , and. will not be seen hero this year after ail. Jack Crooks Is a foxy boy. lie Is the only living ball player who can carry water ou both shoulders without a balance pole. Klraer Cleveland bos caught on.

When Omaha got him she scored a ten-strike. Omaha has released Jake Sternal. Last fall both St. Paul nnd the Omahogs were quarreling over the Cincinnati boy , and now ho scorns to have bean dropped by both of them. In the meantime ho had to refuse offers from Sacramento nnd Spokane Falls. That Is tough with a capital T. Times-Star. Bob Pottit has Jumped his Milwaukee con tract and gone to Louisville. It Is a funny thing how contract Jumping Is oonlinod to certain men. If they once get a taste of It thoy'reliable to do It some more whenovnr the opportunity occurs , and as a general thing they are not very reliable people on or OH the ball field. With the use of a few more simoleons both Harry Lyons and Bob Gilks could have Icon * secured for tha Omaha tenui. But It is well cuough. Manager Shannon has finally suc ceeded in trotting a very fast nnd a very stout crowd together , nnd If they don't coit.3 pretty nearly taking part In the next world's championship series , they won't , that's all. The uniforms for the Omahas arrived at Collins' gun store yestortlny. It Is the Chicago cage mascot suit navy blue nants and shirts , with white stockings , belts' nnd caps , with the word Omdha in white letters across the breast. This Is nn exceedingly pretty suit , and when the boys skate In on their vest fronts it won't show the dirt.

Rupturo. Yes , and you-can't count the fingers that uro turned tip-end your way. Whnt has become of Wild Bill VVidner , who was with Sioux City last fall ) The first game ho pitched against Omaha \vo only got thrco hits , and they talked of running him for mayor up there. This spring , however - over , ho seems to have gotten lost in the stuifllo. They don't know much about ball players up m Sioux City , though , and it maybe they have forgotten there is such n man as Widuer Wlllto Mains , who looks more llko n bam boo flsh pool thnn ever this spring , was slimed by Kansas City to take Park Swart- 7el's plnrc. The luttor's terms were steeper than the Dodge street hill , nnd Manning wouldn't ' have it.

Sioux City has secured Billy Hart fioiu Lincoln , by what manner of hocus-pocus has not been very doiinitcly stated.
