There was a handsome crowd nt Charles
Street Park yesterday afternoon to witness
the closing battle between Harry Sage'o Rock
Island giants nnd Papi Hill's myrmidons.
Probably It would be Just us well to pass
the game up In as succinct form as possible ,
but many times when ono Imagines it the
Very tlmo to lay still It Is bettor to make
n good doil of noise , so that the people may
not to bo deceived by appearance's
This Is an extraordinary ag , and Ole Jam
ison and Young Mr Needham are not the
least of Its many phenomena. Ole Is a
Btrong-arm boy who did the twirling for the
Jlourkea and Young Mr. Needham Is the
youth who attempted to adjudicate the flno
points of the play.
Doth were colossal failures.
Ole was hired by Pa last spring , but he
developed a tired wing early In the play and
was shipped back to the country , only to be
recalled yesterday , and that , too , when there
Is so much fodder to be cut this fall.
Young Mr. Needham Is a late find of your
Undo Davis , but If ho should happen to get
lost now It Is safe to assert that your
avuncular relative will lose little time In
endeavoring to reatoro him to the bosom of
the public.
Die's madding effort to place the globulated
pigskin where Sago's giants could not ram
their center poles against It was touching
Indeed. Some say ho didn't try to pitch ,
others say that ho did. I am with the latter.
Still , the nebula of doubt hangs over the
Judgment on both sides.
This game of base ball Is a funny thing
nnd opens a broad field to both the
metaphysician and the philosopher. If wo can
1)0 absolutely sure that anything that takes
place In our sight takes place we have a
Blurting point from which , theoretically , we
ought to bo able to deduce a clear and ra
r tional understanding as to the cause and a
fairly reasonable assumption as to the ef
fect.
fect.That Is Just the. way It was with Ole yes
terday. Although ho was right there a good
deal larger than life , v\o find H hard to dc-
{ ermlno whether ho did really pitch or not.
You all know what a hard matter It Is
to prove n fact especially In this all-absorb
ing national game of ours. There may have
been a tlmo when Ole was a great pitcher ,
and there also may have bosn a time when
four and four make ten. Hall players are
only ball players when they play ball , and
mathematics are only an exact science by
mutual consent and not from any Intrinsic
truth underlying a theory upon which they
arc based. So there you arc , and there Is but
ono evidence left for us upon which to build
a conclusion , and that Is the story of the
game. Before plunging Into this , howevet- ,
let me say that I have every faith In Jamison
yot. Ho has tremendous speed. Is cool and
collected at all times , and , with a little
work , will make a valuable man for any
team.
team.WHEN
WHEN THE FIRST WERE HADE.
As has been the custom of late. Grasshop
per Ulrlch was the first- member of the
Kourke family to face the Parisian product
who mounted the rubber slab for the Illinois
delegation. The best he could do waa a
cute little perabola over to Michael Lynch of
Virginia. Our ancient friend fared better.
Monsieur Sonler gave him a press ticket to
the first corner , and the Lily and Captain
Mao smashed safely In succession , and the
senllo orange merchant glodo llko an early
summer zephyr across the pan.
That was all. Willie Hill Moran , In his
vaulting ambition , managed to double him
self up with Captain Mac , and the enemy
cama In.
Benjamin Hill of New York , I believe
accepted a present from Ole , and laughing
In diabolical delight the veiy meanest kind
of delight ho trotted down to first. Hut
ho didn't trot much further , for on Roonoy
Sweeney's llttlo dog-fonnel dlaturbjr he was
forced out of notice nt second.
Then big Zels , with his face full of manly
resolution and pimples , came forward and
attitudinized the sphere up over Captain Mac.
Of course you all know what that means.
But KaU was luckier they say ho has nine
lives ho hit a sharp ono over Ole , v\hlch
Ole barely caressed with his flng ° r tips , but
it deflected the flying sphcro enough to allow
Koonoy to tlo the game and Katz to m ike
first.
first.Then
Then , although my esteemed old-tlmo
friend , Whoa Bill Krelg , swatted out a buto ,
no further damage was effected , for the
blooming Lily slammed Cnntllllon out at
first.
first.Tho
The second Inning on both sides combined
all the danger and wild , tumultuous excite
ment of a church eoclalilo or a game of
rlng-around-tho-rosy , and the man must be
blase Indeed who could not have enjoyed
the way In which Pa's IJDJS nnd the giants
romped over the wold.
In the third the Rourkes w = ro still waitIng -
Ing for something or some ono to kindle the
latent fires within their manly Ice chests ,
but these Keck Island giants simply kicked
over the folding b'd nnd threw all the
spare room furniture out Into the street.
They vent right nt Ole with all the chic
nnd embonpoint they could muster , with all
the wild and unfettered tout en soluble of
a rural female band.
BILL KREIG'S HOME RUN.
Rooney Sweeney came ilrst. Ills clothes
lit him restlessly , and ho couldn't wait , so
010 permitted him to walk. T lien , after Kelt
had quietly croaked , KaU made himself vis
ible , and ho rapped Ole one that made him
shriek In agony. It was over the two-bag
fence , and Rooney scored. Willie Krelg was
the next on the list , and , turning to me , he
said : "Now , Sandy , watch mo glvo her
a tonctr\of Old Chllllcothe. " And sure enough ,
the Ilrst ono Ole let go of he caught full In
the cerebrum nnd a moment later we all
heard It crash against the sldo of the Linseed
011 works. Oh , I tell you , that Hill KrolR Is
hard citizen. He came originally from
Lancashire , England , nnd wmo of the best
and bluest blood of the oldest nnd most
decrepit families of Albion courses through
his veins.
That made three tallies In and nn odor

disagreement among the timers , but finally
2-1J was hung out. One ol them caught

the speaker , "I would provide for the RU-

Tliurston , "I would exclude from American

Tliurston was cheered to the echo , and , ns
ho resumed his seat , the convention de
manded that Tom Majors glvo In his testi
mony. Ho did not require a econd Invita
tion , and , climbing upon the stage , ho spoke
as follows.
TOM THANKS GOD.
"I knew when I was nominated that at
least sonic good would follow. Thank God
wo'vo got the results sooner than I ex
pected. Now , gentlemen of the convention ,
I desire to call your attention to this fact *
In 1861 when the Immortal Lincoln Issued
his call for the men of this nation to come
to the defense of the union , I , In my humble
way , sought to do my duty to my flag. I
ottered mj services to the government In
order that the govcrnm'nt might live. I
enlisted In the Tlrst Nebraska regiment ,
commanded by that gallant soldier of Ne
braska , John M. Thajcr , and went forth and
did my duty foi three years In the south.
Then , after returning home nnd being vctor-
anUed , I again enlisted and wnt to the
western borders of the state , where I did
the best I could to protect tlio then Infant
Omaha , now the proud metropolis of this
grand state I was five years and fifteen
months In the service of my country.
"In 1871 an honorable gentleman of
Omaha was nominated for congress , because
It was believed that Nebraska had not had
that representation In congress that her
population entitled her to. Ho went , and
after fighting two jears to secure the recog
nition of the i > tate , returned home. The
people of the state by a unanimous vote of
alt the republicans In the state , asked mete
to go to Washington and talco up the fight ,
and I did so The people were satisfied and
returned me the second time. They de
manded of me that I should go the third
time , and then after that I was elected to
fill the vacancy caused by the death of Con
gressman Frank Welch
"I spent $3,000 of my own money and when
I was asked by the Judiciary committee
of the house If I would accept a reimburse
ment for the money I had expended I replied
that I would not accept ono dollar unless
the house of representatives , by admitting
mo as a congressman , should prove that
I- was honestly entitled to It.
Iin TAKCS THE DEFENSIVE
"No stain rests upon me. I have bsen
branded by the vile tongue of that slanderer
who has hounded me for fifteen years. I
have had the courage to stand up and fight
In the face of his opposition. I have never
bowed a suppl cut knee before him and I
have never asked his permission to be a
candidate for cfflce.
"This man also makes another charge In
regard to the Taj lor voucher. W. H. Tay
lor was a member of the stale senate. Ho
was a pop and was sent there by the paity
that has done so much to ruin the state of
Nebraska. While still a member of the sen
ate he decamped. It has been charged that
I helped to spirit him away. My only an
swer Is that I wish I had the power to not
only have spirited that man away , but that I
was able tctlay to spirit every popul'st ' In
the state away from Nebraska In order that
prosperity might return to this stricken
country.
"It was charged that I approved a voucher
which gave Taylor $75 more than ho was
entitled to. I will appeal to the record.
That session commenced on January G , and
closed on April 11. Under the constitution
jf Nebraska every member cf the legislature
lias a right to rccolvo pay for sUty days
and no more. Before Taylor left the state
tie had served slxty-threo days , not Includ
ing Sundays , and ho drew no more than
the constitution allowed him and ho was
honestly entitled to every cent he got.
"Now , look at this gieat example of purity
while I call attention to his record. In 1871 ,
by some fortune , or rather misfortune , ho
became a member of the legislature. Ho
drew pay for the full constitutional period
of forty days , at the rate of $3 per day , the
amount then allowed by the constitution.
And yet the records show that 13. Hose-
wntor was absent twelve days. Oh , this
grand example of purity ; he can draw pay
for twelve dajs ho never served nnd at the
same tlmo stigmatize me for allowing pay tea
a man who had served his full sixty duys , "
Majors closed by asserting that no foe ,
within or out of the republican party , could
prevent the election of the ontlic ticket this
fall , and disappeared from the stage whllo
the thunders of upplauso awakened by Jils
defense of Ills iccord were d > lng away In
the distance.
BY ACCLAMATION.
As soon as the convention had finished
cheering , Mr. Piper was Invited to the plat
form , where ho thanked the convention for
the honor that It had conferred.
Nomination of auditor of public accounts
being In order , Judge Hobortson of Norfolk
placed the name of Hon. Kugene Moore , the
present Incumbent , before the convention
and moved that the rules tie suspended and
that Mr. Moore ba nominated by acclamation
Hen Halter moved ns an amendment that
the convention veto nt the same tlmo upon
a tandlduto for slate treasurer and named
Hon. J. S. Hartley , the present stale
treasurer. The amendment was carried with
u whoop and the candidates for auditor and
state treasurer vvero placed on the ticket
with one cheer.
At this stage of the proceedings the con
vention tired of routine work and clamored
for a change In the program. To please the
clamorora the York quartet did a few

candidates wont on by II. It. Corbott ,

Ludden said tint the thing was HO bidh

Matters were once more becoming In t PI cat-
Ing , when the band struck up the all , "When
Johnny Comes Marching Home Again " The
music shut off the loud talK , but .tilery
crowds gathered about the chairman , who
long prior to that time had turned the olllcp
over to J. We loy Tucker No satisfaction
could be obtained from the chairman and the
whole convention grow as wild as a heid of
spring colts released fiom conllnoment after
a haid winter. About this time Churchill
ill Uteri Into the hall and wab told of the
slumn in the votes that had started In his
dliectlon. Mr. Churchill Is a man who
knows a good thing v\hen he sees it and at
once he concluded that this wis one of the e
things Climbing to a high pljc.it on the
platfoim , he nssuiod the convention that
he would not accept a nomination that v.as
not won by fair menus , This ciught the
crowd nnd thoio were loud cheers v hlle thn
followers of Summers looked Glum. They
realised that this was a case whcie a heroic
remedy uonUJ have to be applied , and that
Instantly.
OFFERED HIS THKOAT.
Whllo the chairman was ti > Iug to restore
order they sent for Suinmeis and got him
Into the Inll , at once pi icing him upon the
stage for exhibition. Ho was given the
Churchill cue and launched Into a spcccli
saying that he would not accept the nomi
nation If there was any question regnidlng
his being the winner. In the woida of Mi
Tliurston , he afllimed that the convention
was wiser than ono mini and tint if It was
the will of the delegates he was willing to
stand by the result of another ballot. This
settled the question and a second ballot , was
ordered without the result of the first hav
ing been announced. Soon after U started
J. Wesley Tucker , who was the acting chair
man , served notice that after a county had
cast Its vote he would not allow a change
The Summers men took an appeal from this
decision and J. Wesley gave the convention
an opportunity to vote , after which he de
clared that the chair had been sustained ,
although it was clear ! to the minds of a ma
jority of the delegates that not one-third of
the delegates had voted on that side oC the
question.
The second ballot was ordered and the re
sult was Churchill , ri < ! 9 ; Summers , 425 The
