Well , weto you out at the ball park yostor- dnylNol Nol Well then you missed ono of the hardoat fought battles evof witnessed upon Ncbraskan soil. Also a good deal of humiliation nnd some pair. Again , what looked like n lead pipe dnch was metamorphosed Into a pudding. As on the previous day , after winning the pinno twice , the Lambs allowed the Toboau family to Jump onto thorn with both feet und nlnmp them into the cold , cold ground. The spcctacla was agonizing. The day was n beautiful ono for b ill plav- ing , with clear sltlos und 11 nlcclv tempered breo/o rcndciIng everything Just right for n tovai struggle. And it was n royal struggle , fairly reful gent with wondrous features up to the ninth iuning , when the Hood of woo began to RWcll , and bofoio It could bo checked hud not only s\vullo\\cd ui ) Captain Pop's Smith's men. but the grand stand and bleacher * and ( ill that was In them besides. What the rejuvenated Lambs most need in n shorter game If the ninth inning could onlv bo eliminated in some way , they'd win every game. But u few of the details may not provo dls- Int6restlng. In the llrst , nftor General McClellan hnd placed his little Htlck up against the gentle Kinds three times in succession , the Parisian gave Pop his base on balls and Flunngnn fol lowing with a safe ono to loft , Pop i cached third Dungun , the ox-Browor , und ho's a ballplayer too , don't you forgot it-mado a unit sacrifice which scored Smith nnd put Flanagan on second , whence ho scored a moment later on Walsh's slash for n baso. Tiaflloy v/ontout from Chlppey to Whlto Wings , but there was two runs In and the crowd was well enough plo.iicd. It took Denver , however , about the shako of a lan.b's tail to tie the .score , nnd thu came was just whcro It began The Highland Bnrd was nlnmmcd out nt first by Smith , nnd if anyone thinks that the pations nt the park miss Shannon any lot them go out nnd see the old gentleman play ball. Jack O'Connor , "Peach Pie Jack , " as they used to call him down in Burktowu ( one of Cincinnati's classic sub urbs ) , was moio fortunate. Mr. Fee pro- rentcd him with llrst , ns hodid White Wings likewise. A wild pitch let Peach Pie to third , and ho of the immaculate pinions to second. Then Olllo Board caught thosphcro In tlio cerebellum , nnd when it reached the elderberry bushes in center both the Irish patriot und Colonel Tcboau were on their way to the bench , Olllo halting on ( Irst to tlo Ills shoo. Joscphus Wcirick wnftod. In thu second was Omaha's triumphant Inningnnd how the glad people did make the summer air quaver with chin music. Jack Coleman had his "good eyo" with him , and Fournlor wrapped up a base lu tissue paper and gave it to him. Then the fans In the bleachers begun to guy Harrv. nnd when Whltohcad hit her out safe , ttiov fairly hooted. Fee was thrown out at llrst from Whlto Wings to Fouinlor , thn Parisian having covered the bag while ( Jeorgo went nftor the grounder. CJoncral McCIolInn started the joyous p.uuns of victory by hitting Harry u snoligoster for three cushions , nnd scoring the next .spcoml on a passed ball hitting the umpire , which is n very rotten rule by the wav. Old pop supplemented all this good luck by waiting for n "baso , which ho got. Everything comes to the man who waits , you know. Smithy burclod second , but Flanagan Ftnoto ( hoinds three flagrant rnps nnd reJoined - Joined Buclc Kecfo on the bench. Werrick's mishustlo on Duugan's pictur- csquo drive along the surface of the earth , put Old Pop on third , and a passed ball , on the plato. Walsh'.s ' second chrysanthemum to center scored the Milwaukcun , this run making tlm flfth that had coma In. Triiflloy's high ono to Pencil Pie Jack brought the piocecdings to a clojo. "Oh , you can never got this camo" ' ox- ultifglv cried n bleacher to Captain Tobeau ns ho came in to the bench. You should have soon the sardonic grin AVhlto Wings turned upon thU misguided youth. It was enough to Orivo the striking smol- tcrs to work again. The Chlppoy biro was the llrst Colorado.in up. Ho mudo a teach for Fee's Jugular , in- tondin ? to land u knoclc out , but was a little , nhort , still It was good for n s-inglo. Of course Cluppoy stole second. That Is n trick ho seldom falls to turn. A bad tlirow by Fee let McOarr to third , and then Big Oeorgohit him In. Yes , it's the snmo Wilson who plavod here in 18 S , only ho smokes cigarettes now. That's the onlv chungo in him. Harry , the Child Wonder , Hew out to Duncan , nnd after the Poet had hit safe , O'Connor did the snmo to Smith. In thn thud the Lambs made tholr eighth tally. Coleman bit safe , nnd on FLO'S sacri- 11 co , after Wbltehaad's out , wont to second nnd In across the dish on Old Pop's hit , Flanagan made the third out from Board to Tobeau. White Wings then Invested another dollar nnd drew a blanlc. In the eighth , however , after olunklng the locals , the visitois made their sixth tallv , nnd in the ninth , nftor again slathering the Lambs with llmo , thov made three and tied score. And this is the way they did it , Whlto Wings wont to first on four bad onos. Beard made a bit , but Werrick wont out from Walsh to Flanagan , the runners moving up u bug , whence they scored on MtClellnn's excusable iiiutT of thb Chlppoy's long hard horse lly. Wilson's corning difvo fcored Mno nnd the gnmo was tied. The tenth was nn egg for Omaha , us it waster tor Denver , Baker havlngunfortunntely boon emit In to lollevo Fee in this inning. I sav Unfortunately , because Fco was pitching all tight , and Norman is not in winning fettle Justyot a whllo , as the Toboau urchins de monstrated In the thirteenth inning , when uflor lint allowing the Lambs to score four pioat big corn fed runs , they fell upon him like a ton storv the proof building. It was nn awful round. They hit htm In the neck , on the Jugular nnd behind the oar , between the eyes , on the noao , up unit down the ribs nnd across the back , ami when It was all over his nearest rolatlvoould nave takan him for n trump. Tobeau , Beard. Worrick , MclJarr and Kennedy made singles , while Big Wilson Imrolied the ball out of sight ; that is , It was out of sight when it fell , for it was on the other side of the fence.

Tlio number of persons present did not Indicate the interest In the race by nny menus , but tbo weather was so insufferably hot that when the start for the track.inrived nemo hut tbo most enthusiastic could muster stiflli'ient courage tor undertake the Journoy. They thought that the grand stand would DO a roaring furnace , but they were mistaken. About 1 o'clock heavy clouds caino up and nuted DS a voll to the sun's rays und quite a respectable breeze cooled things oil materi ally. Still , it was not exactly cool , but It was far better than rousting in the city. The best two-year-olds of the year , includ ing His Highness , St. Florian , Victoria and Nomad , wore not eligible to start for the rich prize , but there was Merry Mor.arch , n colt that wus considered but n few pounds below Ills Highness , Dngonot , Yorkvillo Belle , Georgia and a number of other peed ones to make it interesting for the talent. How tlic ISuttiii Wont The track could not have been In bettor condition and the best Junior championship over run was looked for. The big event was tbo second on the card nud the names of the probaolo starters were no sooner posted man n wild rush was made for the betting ling. Nothing was wanted but Merry Monarch. Ho started at 7 to 5 and thousands of dollars were hot on him. The bookmakers stood the onslaught manfully , but the bulk of money was so gioat that his prko was gradually cut to 11 to 1U , at which he closed. There was a rally on Dagonet 4 to 1 , and at 0 to 1 ho was heavily backed. The next to receive support was the Marcus Dalv stable , consisting of Sir Matthew , Silver Fox and Tammany , which at 0 to 1 , carried thousands of dollars , whllo others , Bastiford , Vorkvillo Belle und Uooicla were about the only ones to receive support. The starters and the betting were as follows : llustitonl , lito : 1 : 1'hll Dwyer and Low Wlor , coupled. 2)tol ) : I'lomont , | 5 lot ; Air Plant , 10 to 1 ; Hlr Matthew , bilvor I'ox and Tammany , coupled , 6 to I ; Jleiry Monarch , l > to. > ; D.i- Konot , 5 to 1 ; Yorkv.llc llolle. 5 to 1 ; Lavlnsh , aitol ; Ooorel.i.

Georiria and the Patrimony colt , with York villo Belle and Low Weir last. Georgia at once shot to the fiont and showed the way to the top of the Hill , when she fell back beaten , and Dagonot took up the run ning. He showed the way down the straight chute to the quarter , when Ho had half u length tbo best of it with Sir Matthew , the Patrimony colt , Bnsbford and Yorkvillo Belle next. Then Barnes , realizing that tuo tlmo had corao , set to work on Sir Mattnow nnd slowly but surely ho cut down Dtigonet's lead , wbilo Bashford , the Patrimony colt , und Yorkville Belle , were all coming fast.
