VKUY enthusiastic crowd assembled nt Nonpareil park yes- tcrdny afternoon to ace Major Tom Bcrmlnghani'3 Con vention ! ! and the Nonpareils try con clusions atrnln. And all that took the trouble to make the trip were not < k bit sorry for they witnessed ono of : ' | the most exciting contests that lias taken k ' placemen , these famous grounds for many a day. The afternoon was Just right for the sport , with a leaden sky and Just enough breeze to maito things pleasant. The battle began promptly at 4 o'clock and in the language- Mr. Gladstone , it was a Illy. Captain Shanahan'n pots wont Into the struggle with the very best motives , Indeed , 5 but they quickly discovered that Bormtng- \ linin's lambs wcro only so many sheep iu I ! ' I wolves' clothing. J They not only used the stick with effect , but played a game that outshone Spud Farrlsh'a diamond the one ho lost In Wash ington. Huss McKclvoy , the old Allcghanlan , umpired after his usual faultless style and there wasn't a kick In the entire game. J. Lycurgus Mlllor. thu Scncgamblan twlrlor for the Brummgem boys , pitched a superb gamo. Jcllon was peed too , on an average , but the Bormineham family got his range just at the right timo. Artie Crclghton , Llttlo Stonoy. Mickio Clarke and 1 Tichnor fairly plastered themselves with mud and glory. But In this exuberance of praise I must not overlook that young I Italian , Patsoy Morarity. Ho was In the thickest of the fight from the opening gun to the last dying wall. . The balance of the Southsldcrs were a bit marigold In color. But the late phcnoncnal downpour had loft the grounds something llko a custard Elo , and they should not bo Judged too arshly. llncnn the 1'lny 1'rottilr- Stonoy was the first to toe the scratch. Ho tapped down a little ono to Jerry Ma- hone.y and Jerry slammed him out nt ilrst. Then Creighton and Adams did precisely the saino thing , nnd a murmur of Incipient discontent began to ooze through the parti sans of the Northondcrs. But say , Jerry and his pal , Sam MeAuliffc , vrcro very much In that inning , weren't they ? Between tlio two nv 'cm , they retired the side. And what was moro remarkable , there were only thrco balls pitched in the ( lining. The "Parcils came in like conquering lie- rocs , but Lycurgus quickly knocked the starch out of them. Stonoy throw Jerry out at first. Miller took care of Brad's pop-up , and Tichnor - Abled Jollcn's foul. 1 Jullln started the second by socking the ball about a foot Into Mr. Yapp's ribs. Ho wont to second on Kennedy's sacrifice and after Jack Koblnson had How out to Frank 5 Mahoney. ho scored on Mickio Clark's.clean . j single. Tichnor perished at the hands of J Jerry and AicAuliffo , yet the crowd looked I glum. They evidently wanted Shauahan's pcoplo to do the scoring. But they couldn't. MoAulllto and Lacey were both llrod out 4 nt first by Stonoy , and Captain Dave played * ' "Papa Buy Mo a Bow-wow" with the wind. Then another hand was dealt to the Con ventions , and it looked as If it came from a cold deck. To commence with Lycurgus took a little of his own medicine , that Is , Jellln struck him out. Then Jerry made a miscue on Stoncy's easy ono and the boy was safo. A groan went up from under the willows. But to show that yellow playing , llko the yellow fever , is catching , Jelicii followed up Jerry's blunder with another horse play. Creighton hit a soft ono down In the mud in front of him , aud in trying to head off Stonoy at second , Jell came within an ace killing a blue Jay in the maples back of comer Hold. Stonoy ambcrcd on to third , where ho was nailed a moment later , how ever , by a quick throw of Bradford's on Adnms grounder. Lacey followed up all this mess with a bad throw and Artie scored. Then Bradford made another and Buck fol lowed suit. So there wcro two runs In with out the sign of a hit. The atmosphere was growing very sulphur- mis when Jollcn switched Kennedy off by a quick throw to first. In tholr half the 'Parcils laid another egg , nnd how happy the Northerners woro. Two Double * In n Hurry. Jack Koblnson came up smiling for the fourth. .lellen , after taking a good look at him , aimed the sphnro nt his lower vest button , but instead of hitting the murk It landed ugalnsLtho kid's club. The concussion sounded for all the world like a peanut sack whan a small boy blows It up iiiul sils down on It. And whllo Mr. Jollcn was still wondering what had hap pened the ball had landed'way out among the sweet potato vines in right Held , and Hob was blowing llko a porpoise on sack No. 2. You ought to hnvo hoard Tom Bcrmlng- ham's mad shouts at this exploit. H soundi-d Just llko somebody tearing off a tin roof. Clarke followed with a neat single , on which the giddy kid was trapped at the ] > lato. lie thought ho was a sprinter , but lie wasn't on to Count Morlarlty's good right nrm , and he reached homo only to be punched in tlio ribs with the ball In Lacoy's IniiiJ. "Wot's de madder wld ye. kid ? " cried a gamin on the bloachcrn , "You couldn't run H hundred yards in a month. " But Clurko reached second on the throw- In , and then .skated homo on Tlchnor'a drive , Tleh , himself , making second on the throw from thu Held to head Clarke off at homo , and scored when Jellen tried to nail him ivt homo on Miller's timid grounder.

LAYMAN PAINE'S SHARP SHOTS AT SIN An Appaitl for More Mnullnots Among Church Members HOT. Frank Crane Addrcnaoi n MUM Meeting of I.encunr on"The Ulg Churcli. " The Epworth league state convention has como and gone and the delegates will nearly all depart for homo today. In some respects the convention was disappointing to the EI > - worth leaguers , whllo In ether respects It wns n decided success. The nttcndnnco wns not ns largo ns had been anticipated nnd the [ Icllbcrntlons of the convention failed to irlng to the front mnny now workers or now aothods for the promotion of the work In ivhlch the league is interested , the chrls- lanizing of the entire people. But there ivnsn good deal of enthusiasm manifested by hose who took the load , nnd In fact by .early all the delegates , nnd there can bo no question as to the Doncllclal results of the invention UIKHI the Icaguo work over the late. Some of the leading features of the pro- ccdlngs were the changes made In the con- tltutlon , which , In the main , were very much needed and one of which enlarged the oca I Icaguo representation in state convon- , loii3 from two delegates to thrco and au- jthor was the decided stand taken upon the question of opening the World's fair on Sunday. The delegates wore universally well pleased with the entertainment provided for them by the citizens of Omaha nnd went homo kvlth pleasant recollections of the days spent licro. Thu tlmo nnd place of holding the next annual convention wus loft wltu the board of directors. The delegates who remained over Sunday j Omaha attended church nt the most con venient house of worship or anywhere else that they desired yesterday morning , as the "eaguo convention was not allowed to Inter- lero In any way with the regular services at the morning hour. Several ot the visiting clergymen and laymen filled pulpits yester day , but the two leading events of thu day wcro the mass meetings hold at the First Methodist church in the afternoon and oven- ng at which Kov. Frank Crane and Dr. Lasby spolco. Strong Sermon by n T.nymnn. The league work Is calculated to emphasize the fact that some of the most effective ser mons preached are delivered by laymen. Yesterday morning nt the First Methodist church Mr. B. L. Pnino M. D. , of Lincoln , delivered nn address which was very much enjoyed by the audience and wa. overflowing with good thoughts along the lines of Chris tian work. He touched UIKHI the tendency of the Methodist church to grow tnafp staid and conservative upon the matter orThaklng religious zeal manifest nnd said that there wore hundreds of people in the church who had been converted at camp meetings or at nn old-fashioned mourner's bench , but were ashamed to admit it because they thought that such methods of revival work were growing unpopular. Ho believed in the old- fash ionod camp meeting revivals and ho saw no harm in excitement wlioro there was a genuine spirit of religious zeal behind it. ICuppod Curd riuyors uiul Theater Goers. The speaker was of the opinion that too many professed Christians wont about shirk ing their plain duty. "I have known ueoplo when they first struck a town , " said Dr. Paine , "to spend several weeks trying to find out which church had the smallest debt and Into thnt church they went hoplhg to escape helping carry a burden for the good of the cause they professed to be interested in. " Ho believed that it was the duty of all Epworth leaguers to take hold manfully and help along with the financial affairs of the churches they belonged to and not bccomo mere hangers on. Touching the subject of theaters and card playing the speaker said it was a'sliama that so mariy young Christians wcro impressed with the idea that they could not go in good society unless they played cards and went to theaters. "Wo ought to lift the Christian life up so high , " said the .speaker , "that instead of the young Christians trying to climb over the fence into worldly pastures tlio worldly people would bo trying to climb over into the church in order to enjoy life. " Ho struck fashionable society several very hard raps that provoked laughter In the audience. Ho also expressed his disapproval of that , which is known as "Christian Science. " Being a physician himself his remarks on that par ticular subject were of especial interest. "Thoy cull it Christian science , " said Dr. Paine , and then ho stopped and shaking his head solemnly said , "the devil , " in a way that told the audience exactly whore ho stood on the subject. "It is a misnomer , " ho continued , "for 1 have noticed that when ever this peculiar craze gets hold of people they soon cease to work for the Master. " Ho related several rather amusing incidents in connection witn his practice as a physician bearing directly upon the so called "Chri - tian science" method of healing. In closing the speaker exhorted the Epworth leaguers to bo moro airgrcssivo and zealous in the cause they had espoused and to make thorn- selves useful at every possible opportunity in Helping the poor and the unfortunate aud in drawing people away from every form ol sin into ways of righteousness. Held u Musi Mooting. The mass meeting in the afternoon was largely attended , llov. Frank Crane de livered an address on ' 'The Big Church , " the gro.it outside world not included iu any of the Christian churches. The "Big Church" was n powerful organization , ho said , and ono in which there wcro many con sistent pcoplo. The lived for the world and usually got what they wanted. The big church was a liberal church. When people of the world wanted anything they were willing to uay for it. They attended to the moans by which they were kept in the big church. They believed In attending the theater , the gambling don or the horse race with a good deal of enthusiasm and in largo numbers. Nothing wont by halves In the big church. Contrasted with this there stood the little church , or the people who believed and pro fessed Christianity. Many of them were in consistent. While pretending to bo living for Heaven and the good of the human race they were laying up tholr treasures on eart.h. While pretending to desire to see the whoio world Christianized they only gave at the rate of ono sixteenth of ono per cent of their income to the support of missions. If Chris tian people of the United States would give but ono cant apiece for tlio support of for eign missions it would amount to & ] 7X)0,000 ( per annum whereas last year they only gave * . -i,000WO. , ( In this strain the speaker wont on showIng - Ing the littleness of the Christian church in o very way until ho had his aud lonco com pletely plunged into pessimistic blues. Ho pictured the triumphs of atheism and infi delity In Klowlmr language , closing with the victory of the anti-Sabbath observers in opening the gates of the World's fair at Cnlcago , It really looked as though the speaker would predict the entlro extinction of Christianity before ho closed. But after he had held the dark side of the picture up to tils audience about as long as it could bo silently endured ho turned on t'io side lights of his hope , nnd there came a change tha < approached the dramutlu In effect ant brought applause and tears in liberal qunn titles. Ho pictured the , strongholds of Chris tianity surrounded by the enemy , the atheist the Sabbath breaker and the devotees o greed and worldly pleasure. Only n few more ramparts remained to bo taken and the hope of the Christian would perish from of the face of the earth. The old guard , com posed of such people as Bishop Nlndo Frances Willard , Dr. Craf U and others , nov manfully holding the fort against sin , intern pcrauco unit Sabbath breaking , were almos ready to give up the fight , when they noticoc a strange movement in the distance. There seemed to bo a commotion along the horizon nnd It wns soon discovered that there wcro largo numbers of people coming toward tin besieged garrison of Christianity. Were they friends or fees ? The fluid glass wa Drought to boar upon this approaching umo and it was seen to bo that of the Kpwortl league nnd on the banner of the army wcr thu words , "Look up , Lift up. " The usual quiet of the sanctuary wa broken by the sound of enthusiastic applaus whoa the speaker rounded thu graceful and luquont climax of his ( Tliconrso. In con tusion ho said thnt although the conflict bo- ween the big ohurch rtnd. the lltllo ono , bo- weon the world nnfl 'Christianity , looked omowhat discouraging , ho would never lese lope ns long ns there was n solitary man In Vmerlca who trusted ; in God for the final osult. Ho bollovod that the kingdom of 3od would oomo nndho boltoved thnt the Cpvrorth league was going to bo ono of the nest potent agencies M'nrlnglng about the results so devotedly vislmd nnd prayed for. The closing event in , connection with the convention wns the address of Dr. Lnsby of Lincoln , nt the Firstcnnrch Inst night. Tno ddress was eloquent and interesting r.nd or mod a pleasing and appropriate ending or the convention.

DAMAGE WILL REACH INTO THOUSANDS Streets VTnuhccl Ottt , llulldlnpn nnrt Dwell ing * flooded nnil Wnlln Collapsed Homo lnttanc A of the Itnln'a Work In tlio City. The ruin wrought by the rain storm of Saturday night was oven greater than Irst reports Indicated , nnd yestonlay morn- ng there was scarcely a street In the city .hat did not show traces of the water's work. Many of the unRrodcil streets vrero very badly washed out nnd much damage was done to the curbing iln many places and sewers on the ungraded streets suffered icavlly. In the wholesale district many of the basements of warehouses wcro filled and considerable damage caused , The Chicago Lumber company suffers to the amount of S0,000 from the flooding of the cellar of their warehouse nnd the ruining of n largo amount of llino nnd cement. The largo warehouse of the Dewey & 3tono Furniture company , under the Tenth street viaduct , was badly damaged. The water that rushed down the railroad tracks poured over the walks nnd weakened the walls ot the rear portion of the building. At 3:80 : o'clock the wall on the south side col lapsed , tearing down n portion of the roof. The point at which the wall fell was used for unloading cars and but little furniture was near the entrance. The rain poured into the opening for n time , but the damage to the stock was very light. That section of the city west of Sixteenth street and between Castcllar nnd Mason al ways suffers from heavy rainfalls and the storm of Saturday night did the u unl dnm- ago to the barns , outhouses nnd small cot tages that are built along the gorges as rapIdly - Idly as they are built up after each storm , llusttlni ; Jti'pur Work. Street railway travel proceeded yesterday as if there had been no storm on Saturday ovontng , trains starting on tlino and there being no interference with the regular schedule. The drift that obstructed the tracks in many portions of the city was cleared away soon after daylight , the water having receded almost as rapidly ns it rose. It was not a moment's Job. however , to re pair the damage done to paving and sewers , and 11 large force of men will bo occupied with that for several days to como. Neither could the damage done to private property in invaded dwellings and store building bo repaired In a day , and although the water promptly deserted the quarters that it had temporarily claimed for Its own , there are several families who will not bo able to again occupy their houius until the wagons of the graders shall have carted away the Inch or two of rofuao and dirt that was deposited by the Hood on their Moors. The scene of the water's invasion on the north side , along the line of the old North Omaha creek , presented far from a pleasing appearance yesterday. In the early morn ing an immense laKC coversod n largo part of the territory , but it had drained away by afternoon , except In the low places , whcro it had to remain until it could settle into the drenched earth. Grnoo street near Twenty-second was filled with sidewalk in twenty foot sections , and Clark street near the same point was a wobbly sea of paving blocks. Twenty-fourth stx-cot along Kountzo Place was also very much unsettled as to the condition of its paving blocks , which lay iu ridges along the motor tracks. Kxperlcnco ot Many Families. Furniture hung out to dry was a common sight , and in a number of houses the occu pants wcro doing their house cleaning with a shovel instead of a mop or a broom. The residence of Mr. G. C. Place , near the corner of Lake and Fifty-fourth streets , was struck by lightning Saturday night during the fierce thunderstorm. The chim ney was utterly demolished and the cornice of "the house considerably damaged , but no ono was seriously injured. Mrs. Bodling , who lives at 821 South Sev enteenth avouuo , had a little taste of what lightning can do when It tries in the way of scaring people. She was in a room with her daughter during the fury of the storm. Sud denly there was a cracking In the room , and then a great shoot of llamo shot out from the walls. "With a scream , Mrs. Bodling foil In a faint. Others rushed into the room and saw the flames vanish through a window , leaving a much heated sulphurous tasting at mosphere behind. No serious damage was done the building , and the lady only suffered from the fright. SOLUIKU DISOWNED. Private O'KcoflTo l > o ei Ills I.lfo In nn Open Sewer Near the l''ort. The body of William O'Kceffo , a private in company F , Second Infantry , Fort Omaha , was found at 9 o'clock yesterday morning nt a point several hundred foot below Fort street by Charles Gruuor , a 12-year-old boy. When discovered the face of the dead man was downward and covered with the mud In the small crcok which drains the Fort grounds. The deceased was a native of Ireland and had cnllsvcd for the second tlmo in the army. Coroner Maul hold an inquest In the after noon which developed that O'ICcoffo had been drinking heavily on Saturday evening in company with n follow soldier. Ho loft the latter in a saloon , and ns near ns could bo determined fell from the sidewalk across the sewer on Thirtieth street into the little crook which nt the llmo overflowed Its banks and the walk , so that it was perhaps six feet in depth. From hero the body was carried about half a milo to the point whcro it was found after the water sub sided. Several bruises found about the face and head wcro evidently sustained while the body floated down stream nnd in coming in contact with stones or some other substance on the banks. The first theory that foul play had been committed because n remark to the effect that O'Kceffo had probably drowned was made by his companion before the discovery of the remains , was not borne out by the facts. The verdict was therefore accidental drowning. JIEHTU.i 3IA.\'V/lXHl'Jlt'S MVIlllUHKH. Author of n Horrllilo Crime In n Muiin- chusntta VUliie" Arrcntml.
