Yesterday's Ramo was wnll cnlculatod to
inalco the ordinary local fan happy. As n
parting remembrancer the Lamb ? jumped
upon Dave Uowo and gave him a beautiful
caitlKatlon.
The crowd In attendance , In both quantity
and quality , oxcodcd that of any week day
paine over played at McCormlck park.
It was Decoration day and tlio bovs hung
moss and hayseeds and olamborlui ? pumpkin
vines all over the Farmers. When they loft
the Held they resembled a pang Of hands
who had hail a hard day in the outs.
Owinc to tno unmerciful drubbings wo
had received Thursday and Friday the city
was fairly bcsldo hor.sulf yesterday , and
nothing wai talked about but the contest
that was to uomo off In the aftornoon. Tno
doctor , lawyer , bunker and merchant forgot
Business for the nonce to dhcus-i the possl-
tJllitiea of Norman Baker's good right paw.
The cable conductors and motor men , the
chop-house llunkles , bootblack ; ) , newsboys
and arabs gave overythingtliotfO-by to specu
late upon tlio Lambs' ehanco.s with the
husu.v aurioulturallsts.
As early asJ o'clock thorn was a swarm of
Impatient enthusiasts bnnunorini ; nt the
park ontMtico for admtaslon , and nt H)0 : ) the
grounus presented a moststlmuIalitiB appear
ance.
The blue sky , with rugged m.issos of vapor
scudding athwart , the yellow sunshine and
Kum-beiieclcetl sward made a beautiful baolc-
gronud. Tlio stands were absolutely Jammed
mid the posoy-toppcd hats and bewitching
costumes of the hundreds of ladles present
told of what u hold thu clorious spurt is get
ting uiHin the gentlur sex. Flanking upon
the rialit and upon thu loft worn the bleach
ers laden to their capacity with enthusiastic
men and yelping kids , whilcja very cordon of
stylish turnoutb stretched all about thu out-
tleld.
Lincoln was there nl mo it to a man. They
canmup panoplied with whistles and tin
horns and all the other paraphernalia of a
great big saturnalia , but not a" chance did
they have for a single toot , and all through
the fluctuations of the strife they preserved a
dcurco of decorum and quietude bolltting a
Sundav school. They wore licked from the
start.
Most prominent among the Saline delega
tion was Major Charley Magoon , who is Dig
enough to eat hay ; Frank /.ohrung , hanit-
some and exultant ; Fred Slioles , full of en
thusiasm and horse liniment ; Fred Howe ,
John T. Dorgan , Frank Hurr , Charley Rurr ,
W. McCIary , Frank I'olk. a dcscondout of
James K. ; ( , ' . W. Mother , with a pocket lull of
confederate money , which ho intended to dis
tribute among the Farmers if they won the
day ; Hob Dorcan , W. II. Dorpaii , Charley
Nonl , Charley ( 'aldwoll , A. ( ! . HecsonFrank
Sheldon , W. .1. Cooper and Hank Examiner
Cowdroy.
Owing to the late heavy rains , and the
consequential condition of til" roads , this il
lustrious delegation will not reach Lincoln
until late tonight. Tno latest telegraphic ad
vices locates them at Ashland.
Rut. all joking aside , U wai a moan triclt
that Manager Danny played on Brother
Dave yesterday afternoon. Some people
say that It was because the Farmers' didn't
play ball , but that had nothing to
do with it. U was nothing but the foxiness
of the Lambs.
Of course the Pumpkin Huslcors thought
had cinch and that's .
they a lead-pipe ju.st
what Shannon's pots wanted thorn to think.
It was so nice to fool 'om.
Perfect Holding , neat hitting and resplend
ent twirling is what did the biz.
It was all a part of a deep laid scheme that
was hatched in Manager Danny's fertile
brain and successfully executed by tlioso
well-bred young gentlemen , Pap.i MeCuuloy ,
Commodore'Pwitcholl , Aeolus ItaUor , Jose-
phus Walsh , .looms Donnelly , Old Cy Sut-
clllTo , Deacon Ciriftln and Jocko Mulligan.
Who would over huvo suspected those
model citi/ens ot being parties to such a dia
bolical plot ) No ono.
You see. Shannon's scheme was to take a
nicn comfortable lead early In the light , then
let the lloundorlng haymakers catch nearly
up along in the middle , then turn round and
knock their eye out. Never did a scheme
work moro lovely.
Manager Han had barely toed the scratch ,
-when a young Bulgarian by the name of
Itoneh , who Brother Dave had doputi/.ed to
do his pitching , tired the ball at his head. It
only took olT the lobe of his right auricular ,
however , anil Manager Dan was given his
baso. That , was only part of the scheme.
The Yale professor insinuated his sapling
against the sphere and jolted it out among
the dicotyledonous shrubs In lull Hold. And
how the great crowd opened its lace In n
happvyawp ! The scheme \\as working so
linoly.
Mr. Halligan , sometimes called Jocko for
short , then shambled to the plate , m > d the
ilm ball tno Bulgarian cut loose ho smashed
down to Tommy Tomnoy , mid Tommy toyed
with it just long enough to let Danny homo ,
and thu crowd wont cra/.y. Nice , wasn't It !
Uut the next two men struck out , and that
wasn't quite so nico.
For the Farmer's , Monkey Cline was the
first man introduced. Monkey \\as ono of
the lirst settlers of Kentulty , migrating
ttilt nor In 1T'U ' with Daniel Boono. lie fought
the Indians for over a half century , then
'
hired out to a Louisville glue factory. 'That's
where he learned to do stick work.
Ot course ho made a hit ami Mujor Magoon ,
Fivil Shole.s , Frank /.ohrung ot al. , eito r-
voscod for a few moments.
Harry Kaymond , who was a little billions
owing to the climatic change , made three
n'urdurous ' stabs nt Norman's Illusive convo
lutions , and wont uack to tnu bonuh to modl-
tale upon the vicissitudes of life in a largo
cltv.
cltv.Old Jack Kowo looked so humpbacked ,
emaclato.1 and hungry , that Halter gave him
his base and told him to oat It. Norman was
In on Shannon's schomo.
Hurlu'tt , the undertaker , came out hero ,
nnd bonding b.ick until his elbows touched
terra llrma , ho struck the lull a mighty blow.
It went IIUo a shot close to the pltohor. and
the pitcher tired him out to Papa , and Monk ,
who had started down to third , was decapi
tated bv Papa's lightning throw to Donnelly.
Dot imiua da Moult sick ! So you sou how
Shannon's .scheme worked.
'I ho second was devoid of results for both
sides. In the third the Lambs chalked up
run No. . The manager started mutters by
fanning out. Then the Ynle professor sent
another safe oi.o among the convolons weeds
In left. A lU-'ry untamed pitch put him on
third , and Jocko's sacrillclul stroke on the
plate.
Ar.J you'd bettor believe the cranks lot
loose right hero. It was so beautiful to sue
the lambs at piny.
Brother Jack throw Old Cy out ai llrst. In
their half the Fannos stuck to ogps.
And ag'iln in the fourth Omaha scored.
Lurry Twltcholl hit ono of the Bulgarian's
most classical drops such a rat ) as to displace
the cambium layer , and when It was returned
to the diamond it was Hat nnd llabby on ono
sule lluo a llaimol cake and King ( ialYuoy
called for a now ball. Larry I-Oh ho camu
In before the undertaker hail tlsucd the bait
out of the mud In the norllienit corner of the
lot
Pretty decent sort of a scheme of Shan
non's , wasn't It I
The fuming and inspiring agriculturists
got their tir.it run In the Hfth. Up to this
juncture their hlU had been as far apart as
( lovornor Boyd ami Governor Thayer , but
bore Brother Dave almost fell In
a III when ho lammed out a throu-bugKur.
Norman then gave Tomncy and Stafford
their base on balls , and thojcrowd grow
nervous. But Manager D.mny was laughing
In tils sloovo. Ho tolJ liuuor to do It , that
wus part of his sctiomo. 'Ihunoxt moment
Mossrj.Uu ) > : t and Stafford Wuroduublod up
on as nice a trick of Walsh , Shannon and
Papa's , as WAS over seen mi n ball llrhl Hut
ilrotUcr JJuvo uol lu ou tno plu ) Hut you'd
have appreciated how liitlo the crowd eared
for this If you could have heard the uproar
tliny made.
Omaha offset this In tlio next. Pana nmdo
n hit , nnd after two men were out scored on
Jocko's * nfo bunt.
The Farmers were oxccodlng wroth , about
now , and they carne lu bent on inlschlof.
Brother Dave bognn with his second safe
one , only to bo forced ut second bj Tomnoy.
Then Stafford made a single and Hoach a
double nnd the two llrst crossed the pinto.
Then you ought to have hoard the sontlamcn
from Lincoln. They thought they had a
eh an oo.
Both drew blanks In the eighth , but In the
ninth , just as n sort of n farewell love tap ,
the Lnmba scored ncaln the foxy rascals.
Manager D.m lined out a single and the Yale
profftssor a double , and after two men were
out , at that. The Farmers' Html efforts were
unavailing , ami thu the day closed.
It was u great victory and a great scheme
of Shannon's. The score !
