CCOKD1NO TO the usual Fourth of July custom , Oma ha nnd Toledo played two games of ball yesterday , both in the nftoi- noon. They broke oven. The day was nn Ideal ono for out door sport , nnd a crowd of 5,000 poo- pie , more or loss , assembled nt Sportsman's pare to see the fun. Ami there was lots of it. Thomas Ollbett VlcUcry did ttia rotating for th3 Whlto Sox In the ilrst pamo , nnd while I am loth to admit it , ho wasn't qulto up lo his usual excellent standard. The Frott Merchants inado ton hits oft of hiiL , but dcsplto this fact would not have won tno game had It not bnvo boon for a bluckheaded play by Colllcky. This is how It was. In the eighth inning the Parson led oft with a bit , but on Campion's hit to Ilenglo ho was thrown out to second. Darling fol lowed with a hit , which put Camp on second , and things began to look ominous. Nichol bit n high ono tin to Collopy. nnd Instead of nailing and cinching tbo' second out , ho ( rot gay , let it fall purposely to Ihe ground In order to make a double , but in stead of a double bo made a horrible mess of it. it.Ho Ho caucht neither man , but worse , allowed ouo to scoro. After his failure to accomplish too much , ho made nn effort to toss out Campion run ning to third and made a blunder of this too , the ball getting away from Sbelbeck , and Camp ran in nnd Darling down to third. lie , too , ocored d moment later on n passed ball nnd Nichol was driven in on Ncwcll's triolo. That won the game , as the Tolcdos had nlroady made ono tally In the third. Dewnld's pitching was magnificent. The Bcoru : OMAHA. / BCOIIU IIV 1NMNQ3. Oiniiha 0 1 Toledo 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 3 * 4 SUMMAHV.

In thofirst , after Shy and Gilks had boon rotlrcd , ICelly , VIsnor and Howe bit him safely in succession , ana two oarnca runs were placed to the good. After that ho was too oasy. Whenever a hit was necessary ono of Uncle's chcruos would step up and make It , and after nine full Innings had been reeled off , tbo bulletin board showed ton runs tor Ouiaha and tnreo for Toledo. Fnrinor Visnor , who Is playing the garno out of sight , pasted Dad for two singles , a double nnd a tiomor , wlnlo Gllks got In ono for three cushions and two moro for ono npicco.
