Aug. 23 , ( Special Telegram to The lice. ) Uuck made It two atralgh * today vlth Acting Papa George MoVcy. Luck was with the homo-team from the start , and BO was Mr. McKlbben. That la where the whole thing slipped on Omaha. Mr. Mc Klbben Is young and slender , but ho has an arm that la a beaut. It was that arm which twlw robbed Omaha of a run , once In the first , nnd once In the last Inning. Moth Whltehlll and Barnes did good work in the box , and Old Hutch played half the game In the field and got three cracking lilts. Mr. McKlbbon first Inserted his arm In the first , Ulrlch got first on balls anil was sacrificed to second. Secry lifted her to deep left , nnd George was thrown out at third by McKlbben. In the second Hutch got a triple , but was Given a life on Hughes' wild throw to plate. Fear took second on the play and came In on Pedroes' hit. In the fourth Hutch got a double and scored on Spoor's wild throw to catch Fear , who got flist on balls. Another came in In the seventh after two were out on two singles and an error. In the eighth Hutch got another life at the plate on Spcer's drop of a thrown ball. Fear got second on the play nnd caino home on Abhey's single. This inado six runs. Lincoln got two In the Bccond , on a double , nn error , a sacrifice and a lilt. Pedroes dropped Spcer's fly In the fourth and he came In on Hutch's wild throw to first to complete a double. Three more came In In the sixth on a hit , a double and two errors. Speer opened the eighth with a hit and was sacrificed home. With the score standing 7 to G against Omaha In the last half of the nlntli , Mo ran , the first man up , got a double and stretched It on Hughes' error to a triple. Scery went out on a liner to Buck , and McVey sent a high ono to left. McKlbben got It and threw It squarely Into Spcer's hands , doubling up Moran , who was racing In. It was a great throw , and nil Lincoln la sitting up tonight talking ot It. Score : LINCOLN. AB. H. IB. PO. A. E.

CLOSING OF A GREAT RACE Ono of tbo Most Roraarkable Contests for a Fnsc Uall Championship. SIX TEAMS ARE NECK AND NECK NOW Only Foir ] dilute * Itotivoru Itoclc Ulnnd In tlio l.rnd and ( Itnnlui In Sixth I'liicc I.iist tin me * of the fccHHiiu Here , Desplto the fact that Omaha received an other backset at Lincoln yesterday In the race for the Western association champion ship , she Is yet but thirty-nine points be hind Hock Island , who Is In the lead , This la a narrow margin and would require but four games the right way to entirely wipe It out , and there Is no occasion yet for n "holler" on the part of the apprehensive fans. If 1'rcstdent Howe gets the new men he Is now In persistent pursuit o ( , the Ciate City's chances for the championship are In deed bright , In any event , however , the race Is the greatest within the history ot professional ball. Just think of It , but 180 points separates the tatlendcrs from the leaders , a condition of things , considering that the season la rapidly drawing to a close , absolutely remarkable. In the National league nearly 400 points separates Boston from Louisville , nnd In the Western leaEue Sioux City has an advantage over Milwaukee of 251 points , Surely the Western association has furnished Its patrons with a most satisfactory article of the game. But to- scan the standing of the respective teams close , it Is seen that but 39 points separates the first and * sixth , but 34 points the first and tlio.fUlh and but 29 the first and third and fourth , and but 21 the first and second teams. This Is what la styled a whippingfinish. . Any one of the first six clubs has an excellent chance for the flag , with the three eastern teams , on account of the season winding up on their grounds , holding a trilling advantage , It would be presumptive to attempt to pick the winner from the bunch , for any one ot the six neck-and-neck teams Is as apt to be sixth as It 1 ? first. So far as the Kourkea nre concerned , the present week's play will cut an Important figure. If they can beat Lincoln today and take two out of the three from St. Joe they will bs In fine shape for the wlndup abroad. There are but five more games scheduled or the home grounds. On next Sunday St. Jos will bo hero for a game that afternoon nnd another on Monday afternoon. These will Important gumes , and both sides will put orth every possible effort to win. On Tues- lay , Wednesday and Thursday , September 1 , Ei and C , Lincoln winds up the champion ship season here. These two Nebraska teams nre hot rivals , and will strain ovcry fibre , sinew and nerve to down each other. So far th ? games between these ; wo teams have been really remarkable. Up to date they have played fourteen games with each othsr , and ot these Omaha has won seven and Lincoln seven , leaving four nore gamea to be decided between them , So far Omaha has not won a single game In Lincoln , and Lincoln but one In Omaha , but n Justice to the Senators It is but fair testate state that ot the fourteen games thus far ilayed eight of them have been on the Jnuiha grounds , Lincoln having transferred o of her Sunday games to this city. Which : eam will win the series Is yet an open ques tion , as It Is now nbout an even break with them.

TROUBLE ABOUT PAY. llllllciilly llutwrcn Mnmigcru nnil 1".tnplojrs of Must Onmlui Strvnt Hillwiy _ A miniature strike threatened to develop on the Djst Omaha railway line last night. As It was , five and a halt crews , eleven men , presented their demands at S:30 : , anil pend ing their consideration they left their trains. From information that could ba gathered the men have been discharged. They were all old employes. From the statements of the men It ap pears that on the opening of the beach this summer they were promised eleven hours work per day nt 16 cents an hour. This amount of work , they say , has not been given them. Some days they work only five or six hours , and while on others they have put In as n.dch as fourteen hours. It Is said the number of the formjr far exceeds that of the latter , and the average is by no means eleven hours. When the rush to the beach commenced on nccrunt of new attractions , and especially the "Fall of Pompeii , " new men were put on. These were paid at the rate ot 20 cents an hour for the time they put In. Inasmuch as they were not given as many hours' work as had been agro'd upon , the old employes thought It unfair that the discrimination In pay per hour should be made. So last night they madA a demand that the full eleven hours' work be granted at the original rate of 16 cnts per hour , or that they be paid 20 cents for the time they worked. The demand was made last night at 8:30 : , and , It Is understood , refused and the men discharged. Superintendent Matthews of the railway could not be found , and an office employe who was seen said he knew little about the matter. He said ho understood that three or four of the men had had somj trouble about pay with the superintendent. In answer tea a question he admitted , or rattier bald he "guessed , " the men wre discharged. It Is said that all the old cmpKyoa were to have struck together , but the plan did not work.

W011EN JOIN THE TRAP AMY Counly Commissioners Listen to thoSolicila- tion of Fomnlo Coioyites , LATEST PRODUCT OF THE HARD TIMES l > ro < ! lrl Wiilk from I'lilcnRO to Omnhii < > Their \Vij- to tlm Pnulllc Couit Trump of n Nubrutlca U'onuiii tn llrr liuvn Ilinnc , In these days of progressive- ideas tlie women folk have Invaded many paths only trodden heretofore by masculine feet. But according to the experience ot tlioso oillcers who have to dispense- the charities ot the county government feminine atiilactly has vaulted Into a now sphere within the past row months , For some time past it has been possible for the searcher after novelty to h.ivo his hair shampooed nnd his whiskers trimmed liy a female barber. Ho might visit a female physician to obtain a diagnosis ot his ail ments , have his law suits tried nnd lost by ti woman of lcg.il pretensions , but it Is re served for the astonished citizen of 18UI to meet tramps In petticoats and berlbboncd huts begging for a hand-out nt his back door. door.Whllo Whllo the woman tramp Is comparatively a recent Institution , the county commissioners nre making the acrnialntnnce of n good many of them these pleasant days. It Is the llrst tlmo In their experience that they have been confronted with the Importunities of this class of mendicants and the problem of deal ing with them I * not as easy as It might bo It they were confined as previously to the sterner sex. According to their experience , tlio great trouble wllh the female tramp Is that she never lets go. Opposition has no effect on her Importunities and a refusal of her demands only opens the floodgates for another volley of argument. There have been half a doxen self-con fessed foinalo tramps within the past week who have applied to the commissioners for assistance of one sort or another. They all profess to be willing to work but unable to find anything to do. They have long ami pj- thctic hard luck stories nt their tongues' ends and they tell them vlth a dramatic ef fect that discounts tlio best cffoits ot the nialo vagabond. Ono case of this description which Is puzzling ( lie charity committco just now Is that of twi young girls who arrived In Omaha Saturday. They were directed to the county board for assistance and found Commissioner Jenkins at the board roums during the tifter- noon. Both of the girls were ot good appearance - pearanco and although their clothes bore In dications ot rough usage they were of good materials and for the most part clean. The girls were from 16 to IS years old and according to their story had homes In San Francisco. During the World's fair they had been Induced to go to Chicago by an aunt , who sent them the money to pay their farp. The aunt kept a boarding house on Cottage Grove avenue nnd after their arrival the girls were employed as waitresses. All -\vcnt well as long as the exposition lasted , but then the relative suddenly disappeared with nil her belongings and -without leaving the Blrls money enough , to pay their way back to their home. Their parents were too poor to help them , so they started , out to look for work In order to earn money enough to pjy their way across the continent. They found considerable difficulty In this , as they ucre not familiar with kitchen work and that seemed to be about the only avenue of employment that was not already over crowded. After slaying In Chicago for a couple ot months , during which they barely succeeded in making a living , they decided to follow the example of the Coxeyltes and try the plan of beating their way to Cali fornia. By dint of stealing rldea as much as possible and walking the rest of the way they have succeeded In reaching Omaha and their application to ( he commissioners was for transportation- Denver , where they said they had relatives who would forward them to San Francisco. They said they had walked nearly 100 miles through Iowa , sleep ing in hay stacks part of the time and beg ging their living from fanners along the route. Mr. Jenkins told them that he could do nothing for them in the way of transporta tion , but If they \vouhl come back this week he would look around In the meantime and try to get them something to do. He applied to the Pacific Hotel company yesterday to see It they could use a couple of waitresses , but the company had so many applications for positions tliat they were only hiring those with whose antecedents they were fa miliar and they had no place for the wan derers. The youthful tramps have not yet made a second appearance , which leads the commissioners to the opinion that they were not as anxious for work as they seemed. Another case of the same order was a woman from Iowa who called on the commis sioners for aid yesterday. She had moved to western Nebraska with her husband , but their drouth had made their essay nl farming n failure , and shortly afterwards her hus band died , nnd his funeral expenses used up all tint she could secure by selling th lr furniture and other personal belongings. She declared that she had valked most of the way back nnd as going to her old home tn Iowa where she thought she could find enough to do to afford a living. Her shoes were worn out , and one of the commis sioners supplied her with new ones , which while they were not adapted for ball room wear , would be very uteCul liv her tramp along the country road. The transportation question Is the most serious one which confronts Iho commission ers this year. Not a day parses but that some wanderer applies for a railroad ticket. In most cases the applicants nre deserving. but If all of them should be satisfied , half ot the general fund would be absorbed In rail road fare. Tlio commissioners have now decided that the necessities of the poor of Douglas county during the coming winter will be more than sulllclent to tax their resources , and hereafter not a single mlle of transportation will be Issued to any one. The board will endeavor to provide as far as possible for the deserving poor of their own county , but will let tin * offshoots of other localities look to their own government for aid.
