A mighty pretty Raino was that played , by the llourkcs and tlie Salt Creek Far men yesterday , and better yet. It went the right way. way.Tho The llourkes won. Just before play began Huckorlno ex claimed : "Now boys , let's see whether we can't win a game on these grounds ! " anil Irom that moment on ho was the same old Inimitable Ituck , lively , Jovial , energetic and gentle manly , until the last man died In the ninth. Ootllcb Haiti was an the slab for the Agriculturists and when the Hourkea got through with him ho looked as It he had collided with a motor car. Before the ( Tame opened the Omahas were a bit leary of him. They remembered but n few daya ago he came within a bobtail of closing them out without a hit , and they didn't know what ho might have up his sleeve again. Hut the memory of this great exploit soon lost Its tcrrcra. They found htm a great big pudding and they couldn't ' get enough of him. llo opened up In the most startling man- ncr , Indeed , sawing out both Ulrlch and Langs ford aa If they had been so much cord wood , nml a nimbus settled around Buckcrlno's face that shonu like the head light at in engine' . Hilly Afaran sent one down to Hughes , and it looked .13 If the Jig was up , but Hughes got Into an argument with the ball , and Billy reached first before he could get It over. Ootlleb didn't like McVcy's looks and allowed him to walk. Then Seory went out on a high one to Pedroea and the fanners came in. And maybe they didn't give us ascare. BUCK WAS IN EARNKST. McCarthy and I'edrocs led off with smash ing drives , Mac's a clean single to left , and I'eddy's a grounder too hot for the Grass hopper to handle. Then Deacon Abbey steadied himself , and while the farmers were all Imploring Me- Ktbbon to knock It over t'ie fence the min isterial youth from Chicago struck him out. Of course there was great rejoicing nt that , us It was a ncuccdly clevur piece nf work. Speor swiped the ball viciously , but Old Hutch was In the right place at the right time , and he switched i'sdruca oft at second , McCarthy reaching1 third on the play. Specr burgled second , a-id Aliliuv bored a tunnel Into nuckcrlno's dlapUram , and the bases werefull. . Dig Hughes was at the l.at. A. hit inrnnt worlds to Lincoln. Every.-wdy 1'ild their breath. The strain was awful , Dut right here Is where Deacon Abbey shone with a dazzling refulgence. Tim Deacon Is a man who always thinks twice before- acting once. Ho never lets go of the > sphere until ho first scans the horizon roundabout , then ho punched hla left too Into the ground to bo sure Jlioro la no gopher holes there. Then lie examines the batter critically , looks over his fchouldor to see whether the L'lly or' ' the Orasshoppsr liavo gone to sleep. By tills time the batter Is wandering whether ho Intends to pitch any more or not. This Is the Deacon's time. He snatches the sphere In his right mauley , pokes It up among the clouds , and with a llghtnlng-llkc sweep lets go of the ball , Once In a whllo a batsman hits It. But not often. Anyway , Colonel Hughes didn't , and he tried It threiT times with all his might. The crowd yelled Itself hoarse , and Captain McVey was so overjoyed that he walked clear Into the bench without touching the- ground , and the fanners never smiled again. In I ho second wo cracked a little Ice. Jack McCann walked down and stole second. Old Hutch lifted a long , high one to Pedroes and sat down and Pear struck out. Then Hughes made a miserable flub-dub on the Deacon's grounder and Jack wont to third , whence he scored on Ulrlch's snappy single , The Grasshopper was mercilessly mangled endeavoring to steal second. It was another horse collar fcr the fanners , Hilly Moran led off In the third with a rattling two-sack smash. McVey was balled to first , Scery toro &rf a single , on which Moran rode home ; then after McCann and Old Hutch had flown out , Speer undertook to catch McVey al third , but his throw went wild and Mac made himself numerous be tween third and homo and Seery swarmed around the circuit nil by himself. He nwarmed with such velocity that he overlook Mac. and Hinging him over his shoulder , they both plunged across the pinto together. That was all , although Fear banged out a ilnglB and stole second. Abbey retired on a high fly to McKlbben. BUCK'S ONLY CONSOLATION. Then the fanners did their best , and that was ono little tally , all they got In the game. MclKbben swatted safely and Speer was bolted with the ball , then Buckcrino got In his llttlo hit and the trick was turned McKlbbea scored , The next three men furnished easy outs. Tim Hcurkps harpooned another In the fourth and still another In the fifth. At Iho end of the seventh the score stood six for Papa 11111 and one for Iluckerino , and Iluckcrlno was mad. With anxious eye he had watched the Hourkes as they leaned for ward one after another and stulTed the early autumnal air with balls and wrinkling his massive brow up until It resembled n rub ber door mat , he strode up to Ootlclb Daltz and Gotlelb went away. Some slid he crawled under thegand stand , others that ho climbed the fence and ran down the alley. But that doesn't matter , he went any way. In the eighth the Itourkcs faced a name less terror , whom Iluckcrlno called \Vahlseh- lager for short. Ho looked like a relic ol the mound builders , and was wilder than a Texas steer. The fun began right away. Ulrlch flitted to the bat like Rome fragrant wld ( flower. He tried his best to get a crack at \Vnhlschlaier ; , but \Vahlach- lager said nay , and the Grasshopper walked The Lily ran hla club Into the ball's entrails and when It came down Larry Sullivan liai It.

All this was good for four more- runs , and as the afternoon hours -were Hitting , the tourkcs once more took the field , and gave he farmers anolhcrshow for their white ultr. ultr.But But It was no good. They had lost icart , and were tossed about like so many cockle shells on the billowy deep.

Yesterday was children's day at the Doug las county fair , and the youngsters fairly overrun the grounds. However , they enjoyed the agricultural exhibits and horse racing as well ns Ihe older folks , and were unstinted In their praise of everything. It was alss a great day for the "kid" horaes , and the two great fields of trotters and pacers , foals of 1893 , were the main attractions. The track had been put Into good condition during the forenoon , and when Starter Culbertson called on the first race at 2 o'clock there were about 3.COO people en the grounds. The first race was the J3GO stake , for trot ters , foals ot 18D3 , with flvo starters. Tha race was In half mile heats , best thrco tn flvo , and the full five heals had to be trotted before a decision , \vaa reached. The contest was nn Interesting ; ono , and the fight for first place was between the Woodllno colts , and after the fourth hrat It was a toss-up for first , hut the baby from the Woorilftis farm carried off first honors. Outside the contest between Miss Woodllne and Stella Woodllne , both from the same sire , the race was uninteresting. The time was good nnd the first and third heats went to Miss Wotd- llne , while Stella Woodllno captured the second end , fourth and fifth and won the race.

This race was won In straight heats , and Cedar Belle , another of the W.oodljne 1 $ oHs , captured second money. This 'was a fine field of starters and there are some promising colts In both the pacing and trotting.events.

The 2:22 : class pace , for a purse of $500 , brought out fh'e good starters , but after the first heat Itvas seen that tliero , was but ono horse In the rare. Eva Ilarrdll and Harry Holton made a 8 mV brush for the place until they came dftwi ( lie stretch , and then Harry Holton slowed down ns If under a pull , nnd It looked very much as If Driver Hurst hud not tried to win. This caused the judges to pull him from the sulky and put up Hush Munson , who made a merry clip for Eva with Harry until the horses went Into the stretch , and then It was seen that Harry was a quitter , not having the strength to finish after a bruising drive of three-quar ters of a mile. Eva Harroll won the race In straight heats , and could have made bet ter timeIf slic.liadJjeen pushed to a finish. In the last liCAj iifter a good get away.

The second day of the Grand Circuit tioUIn meeting at Fleetwood - wood park resulted In two one-sided , unln- tereslInK processions and one old fashioned , red hot horse race. In the 2:14 : class the California colt , Ore \Vllkes , was a favorite over the field. MtsS 14da was believed to be his only pdislUlB dangerous contestant.
