Still It was by such a nar row margin and the game they put up was so excellent that there was little room for displeas ure. The weather was Just right for good , hard , honest work on the field , but at such n low ebb has tbo sport run here since the catyclasm of July that but a small crowd screwed up sufficient courage to go. These who were there , how ever , were well repaid , for the contest was ono of the most brilliant and spirited that has taken place hero this season. Mr. S. Goodfriend , advance man of the A. M. I'altner ( company , was an enthusiastic lookoron from the box. Mr. Good friend is nn old Now York base ball writer and knows the proper article when ho sees it. Ho made tlio trip around the glebe with tbo Spauld- Ing expedition in 183'J , und his breezy letters are well remembered by all lovers of the gamo. As has been customary since Manager Lead ley took hold ol the reins here , the vis itors wore again sent to the bat yesterday , t.nd Jimmy Manning was the first man to faoo Mr. Stlen. Ho kcnt ur > a running fire at the ox-Chicagoan , until , Just to get rid of him , Stien gave him his base on balls. Clover boy , that Fall Hlvor duck. Katz hita sharp ono down to Day , and was side tracked at tlrsl. Mannuor Jim , bowovor , reached second on the play. Toddy I'ntch- ard Pickott then wielded his tree , remarking nt the same tlmo , "I'll ' knock you In , Jlml" But Instead ho knocked him out , for on Jack's bard one down to the supple Mr. Mc- Gloiro , Manning was caueht between second mid third , nnd with Walsh's aid ho was sent to the bench. Of course the crowd enjoyed that , for it was ball playing. Elinor Smith was also ticKcd dead head to first , but Danny Stearns , wlo | hasn't played with much of his characteristic vim since that follow shot at him down in Lincoln , could only pop up a high ono for McGlono. In their half the Lambs came within a hair's breadth of making u run. But a miss Is coed ns a mile , isn't It ! Hnsty Wright and Frank Day fell easy victims to Colonel Sow- dors' wiles , and it looked as if wo weren't going to got a smell. But McGlouc came along with n safe plunk to loft. Then , before fore Johnny Sowdors could recover from the shock , ho stole second , sliding in hoofs fore most from about half way down the linos. The cheers of the select few spurred him to further exploits , and on the next lull pitched ho burgled third ! All this fine work , though , was unavailing , for DunganM long foul was neatly captured by King Elmer. In the second , after that ball player , Mc Glono , had slummed out both Big Hoover and Old Hick , Gunny cot his base on u quartette - totto of wldo ones. Sawders boosted him arouud to third on a nice little hit , ho , him self making second on the throw to head off Guuson. But that is all It amounted to , for Manning , the next man up , wont out * on a liner to Day. The Lambs , too , were blanked , and than followed an unbroken chain of eggs for both sides until the seventh , when the Cowboys Jumped in and won the gamo. How ? .Why , Gunson laid his club against ouo of Mr. Stlon's choicest slants for a bag , and traveled on to second on Johnny's sacrifice. Manning sent him over the rubber on a smash to center , which Duugan allowed to sonp through the weeds at his fecit , nnd Jimmy kept on until hn reached second. Stlon was hot nnd ho plu"ced i'iokett In the vertebra ; with ball. Then King Elinor laced out a neat ono to right , but by a quick return of the ball by Hasty Wright Manning was caught , between third and homo nnd Plokott between first and second. There was n few moments of monkoying , then Fields smashed Manager Jim in the bacic as ho was lickinc It back to third and the result was the ball glanced off out among the holyhocks near the bleachers und Manning ran in nnd Plckctt reached third. Unfortunate Mr. Fields. Stearns then basted Stein for a single and Plukott Joined Gunson nnd Manning at the water tank. Bis Hoover hit the atmosphere three severe blows In the paunch , and the Jig was up. But the Cowboys bad a trio of tallies and they were as breezy and. as fresh as Dave Kowo. The Lambs took another frappo. In the eighth the Manning family were retired In order , but in her half Omaha got her ono little fur-lined run. Wright got his base on balls , and Day his on Plekett's fail ure to hold Old Hick's throw to cut off Hasty. Wright made a rochercho steal of third niul came homo on Gunson's bad throw. It was at plash of limo for both sides In the ninth , nnd the score was loft thus : OMAHA. CU14UAIIV. K&rnod runs : Kansas Cltv , 1. Two-base hit : Klolds.

Wlmt tlm Meiiiborn I'll Ink 7'cccHHiiry for the I'nblio ( food Mlxth Ward KoiiutillcniiHVako Up SninuHcl'H Q inrtorH. The Fifth Ward Kickers' club had not pro ceeded very far last night before the fur begun lo lly. Air. Lockncr introiluced n resolution In favor of petitioning the council to grant a franchise to thn MotropolitnD Street Hallway company. Mr. Schnako took the floor and the way lie walked up and down over the prostrate form of the Omaha Street Hallway company and other like corpo rations would have delighted the hearts of all the anti-monopolists In the country. Ho soared nwny In the language of a Cicero , declaring that the street mil way companies had grown rich at the expense of the tax payers of Omaha. "I am opposed tn the granting of any inoro franchises or privileges to any of thesostreet car companies unless they pay for thorn , " said Mr , Schnako. "Tho members of the city council have their pockets full of passes but the poor men who pay the burden of the taxes hnvo lo pay their fare. " Mr. Sohnako held that the consideration of such a resolution was out of order In the club , for a resolution had been passed at a previous meeting declaring that the street car companies should bo taxed T a car for every car they run over their roads. Dcsplto the protest of Mr. Schnako the resolution was declared in order , however , und the other sldo of the question was hoard from. from.Mr. Mr. C. W. Slattory took up the debate in behalf of the Metrouolltau Street Uailway company. Ho said that ttio company would put 1,500 or 2,000 rnon at work Immediately after the granting of the fran chise. Just at this time the employment of that number of men iti the city of Omaha would Do a great help to the business Interests of Omaha. Ho said the Metropolitan Street Hallway company did not Intend to ask for nny privileges ex cepting such as had been granted to the other street car companies In Omaha. Ho believed that competition In the strcot car business , ns In all other lines , was bonollcinl to the public. The granting of the franchise to the Metropolitan Stroat Railway company would break up the present monopoly in the street railway business Several other gontlcmon spoke upon the question , and finally Mr. Schnako agreed to vote for the resolution after It has been amended so ns to read that ttio council should provide that the interests of the citizens at largo should bo full protcctod. Ttio club then decided to build the union dopot. Some of the kickers suggested plans by which the present delay might bo wiped out , but thny decided to wait until some fur ther developments had corao to the surface before proceeding. Then the action of the city council xvlth reference to permanent sidewalks within the lira limits vtas hold up to the kcon searching eye of the public , by several of the hardest kickers of thu club. It scomod to bo the gen eral belief among these present that the coun cil had no right to exclude brick as a material for permanent in favor ot stono. The following resolution was finally adopted : Resolved. That It Is the sunso of this moot ing that the elty council should mortify the order for putting down Mono walk so that whuro good board walks MOW exists on resi dence streets they may be left alone for the present. Mr. Schnako made the point that the side walks were the joint property of the lot owners and the city , and that the city council had no right to take full and absolute control of the sidewalks. The attendance w&s larger than usual and the Interest manifested in the discussion , particularly In that pertaining to the street railway company , was intense. AGAIN Sixth Ward Republicans Kango in Ijine tor the Fall Campaign. The regular annual meeting of the Sixth Ward Republican club was held last night at the club room , near Twenty-sixth and Lake streets. The attendance was unusually largo , and the meeting was remarkable for the display of harmony and brotherly love. The janitor reported that somebody hud boon In the habit of borrowing the chairs , lamps and other paraphernalia of the club whenever tboy saw lit and some of the prop erty had bean broken and otherwise de stroyed. The janitor was instructed to change the lock on the door and take such other stops as were necessary to preserve the property of the club.

At tbo conclusion of the election Martin Ittnor donated > toward the expenses of the club , for which the club returned an unani mous vote ot thanks. George K. Wilson caused a ripple in the calm serenity of the mooting by asking for information on the subject of the Personal Ulghts league , stating that he understood that the league was in reality n democratic institution In disguise. Ho bad supposed it was formed only for tno defeat of prohibi tion , but suoh did not seem to bo the only ob ject of the league. A. T. Hays made a stirring speech In which ho deprecated the idea of bringing up dead issues and attempting to stir up strife in the club. Several other members made short , talks in the same strain. On motion of Frank Sporu tha discussion of the prohibition question , or of the Personal - sonal Hights league was tabooed by the club and all discussion cut short. > On motion of A. T. Hayes the executive commlttQq was instructed to secure speakers to address the club at each meeting on flvo topics.

A cloudburst co- currud in the mountains surrounding Sand Lake at ! ) p. in. yotlorday and extended ever about n mlle of territory. The rain came down In blinding .shoots and continued for several hour * . The mountain .streams were soon Ilka rivers nnd rushed down the bill- nidus and nmpllod Into the lake with a roar that drowned the uolso of tbo tliumier. The lake soon ovorflotvou Its banks and rushed over the now dam down In the valley bolow. KvorythliiK was carried before the raging torrent. Whole orchards were uprooted , barns and houses .swept down and carried from n half to u mlle down the stream , which was fully n mlle wldo and twenty foot doop. The hotel stable was swept from Its founda tion and four horses were drowned. The residence of Israel ICiiowhton was carried away , the family escaping with diftloulty to another portion of the building. The black smith shop of LawU Adams nnd three horses were swallowed up , and the ontlro farm of A. U. Knowlson was subm ergod and the crops destroyed. At Slater's Corner * three bridges were carried nwiiy and the hotel was tilled with water half way up to the second story , Sov- onty-llvo guests wdro panio-strlcUun nnd sev eral of the ladles wont into hysterics nnd fainted , adding to the excitement. The general grocerv store of Jonathan Huntley was carried fully a mlle toward the flats bolow. Tno flood came upon the p ooplo with scarcely a moment's warning and in most cases tboro was not tnno to remove house hold otlccts to the floors above. The water rushed on towards Avorlll pork and Sand lu o proper , where all the big man ufacturing places nro located. The dam nt Kaln's mill was nearly all swept away nt the Ilrst approach of the torrent , and a big corner of the mill was taken from its foundation and carried away. Fifteen thousand dollars' worth of nmdo-up woolen goods were soaked with the muddy water , entailing a loss of nt loust half that amount. The sluices were thrown open , but this seemed to have no ehect. The next dam , several hundred foot below , withstood the pressure for seven hours , when at fl o'clock it , too , gave away with a terrific roar. The water poured through the mill windows that had been thrown open for that purpcso. It Is believed that lives have been lost. Three Iron bridges were swept nway after the dam gave way and were carried several hundred feel down the stream. McConlho's mill , just below , was seriously damaged , and tbo dam , a particularly strong one , broke. Thin the immense volume ol water , Instead of following the circuitous course of the croon , spread out ever the surrounding farms and destroyed everything in Its path. The rush of the water could bo heard for miles and the mighty roar brought out hundreds of people , who congregated on the hill just east of the dam. The dam was thought to be se cure and no one Imagined that the break would occur so suddenly. The next dam , about three-fourths of a mile below , owned by A. , f. Smart , who Is n largo manufacturer of cotton nnd woolen goods , stood the strain , although the water rushed ever the top ton feet deep. It was impossible to drive further east than the vil lage of Wynuntskill for miles from Grand lake , as the roadbed was covered with from two to four feet of water. At Wynantskill forms were flooded and outhouses curried eft their inundations. At Albia , three miles from Troy , a bndgo in process of construction was carried off. The effects of the flood were severely felt in the lower part of Troy , where the Wynant skill empties Into the Hudson. The people were driven outot their basements and cel lars and obliged to take refuge on the streets. Hiloy's dam , between Troy nnd Albia , was carried away at midnight 'it has now ceased raining.

The lursro railroad bridge at Sogono , besides n number of houses , was wrecked and crops destroyed. Part of the village of Petersburg , lying near Little Hooslck , was completely wrecked. A score of residences and work shops were washed from their foundations nnd a largo quantity of personal property de- strnvcd. The loss in that village cannot bo less than ? ' . " > ,000.
