THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : iDSTDAY , MAY 5. 1895 i PNCY WINS BY ONE RUN Made Nine In the Ilrat Inning and Omaha Couldn't Catch Up. COLONEL CARRIS.VS OPENING EFFORT He Wm Ilnmmcrrd All the Wny Ilotrn the Llit nnil Then Itcmavrd Itotnlls of Gumo thut Win Kurd Work. A good Saturday afternoon crowd witnessed ihe second game between Omatn and Qulncy , which the latter won by the margin of a Ingle run , after a hot and scrappy battle. There wore- barrels of enthusiasm on tap , nnd the summer air was kept quavering with cheers. It was a peculiar fight , Inasmuch as Old Hutch's boys fairly outbattcd and outplayed - played their country cousins , and yet lost the game. All the luck seemed to be with the visitors , nnd , Btrango as It may stem , they earned their victory , and did It right In the flnt Innings , batting the pbony-halred Mr. Carrlsh until ho resembled a big pile of calf's foot Jelly , and Cdptaln Hutch took a big pair of tongs nnd lifted him out of the box , presumably to save his life. Ignatius Donnelly took his place , nnd came near charing a like fate , and at the beginning of the sixth big Amos Husle made his debut , end the farmers from over the Father of Waters made but one mnro hit and no more runs. The Illlnolfans al'o changed pitchers , Kel- lum retiring at the end of the third and Mc- Qreavy taking his place. Doth were hit hard and often , but It was not In the books for Omaha to win. In fact , they never suc ceeded In getting their noses In the lead. The weather was showery , and time was called twice while the clouds wept , but fin ally the full nine Innings were played out. Omaha , as usual , made a good start , scor ing two runs. Ulrlch went to first on balls nnd scored on Shaffer's hit , the latter reach ing second on the throw In to catch the nimble Grasshopper , nnd coming home a moment later on I'etlo Lohmun's rattling drive. WARMED CAUHISH UP A D1T. Then Drackett's brigade took a hand , and maybe they didn't make the fur fly. Carrlsh signalized his debut by soaking Merles In the mldrlf { with the ball. Then Major Strongarm picked up his sapling , nnd It was seen by the cold , hard look In his ple- like phiz that ho Intended to bust one of Col onel Carrlsh's furniture \an curves wide open. The colonel was evidently Inclined to the same belief , and ho cautiously bent his wil lowy form for a herculean effort. Armstrong kept his massive eye upon him , and lifted tils tret menacingly. The ball finally crawled through the am bient , and Just before It reached the plate there was a report like a fat man sitting down on an Inflated paper sack , and the astonished pigskin disappeared. The next moment there was a rambling crash heard coming from somewhere over lu Council Bluffs. It v > as the ball bringing up against the back doer of the Ogdcn house. Thcro was no rapturous applause at this , nnd nil the bouquets Mr. Armstrong re ceived when ho came ho threw at himself. Then Jack Farrell caught one of George's slowest fast ones and it hopped over the fence for a couple of cushions. McConnack Jolted out a single , Daniel Iloland n pair , and Hlckoy a solitaire. La Hocquo was gracious enough to fly out to Ulrlch , but Peek-a-bco nnd Kcllum nnd Mertea kept up the bom bardment , the first two making singles and Sandow a brace. Here Carrlsh and Donnelly swapped places , nnd no sooner hnd Ignatius taken his posi tion than Armstrong rapped him one In the Jaw that netted first. Hut the agony was about over. On Farrell's swat down to Old Hutch he was neatly doubled up with Mr. Strongnrm , Paddy Miles and Little Willie O'Brien assisting the captln In the wondrous achievement. This rally with the stick was good for nlno runs , and they were the means of wln- n'ng ' the game. The Omahas were game , however , and scrapped along ns If they really meant to pull the thing out at any hazards. They foiled , although they came within a single run of It , and would have tied the score could Knslo have hit the side of a church with a shotgun In the final Innings. It opened up with the Quinces three In His lead. O'Brien was fired al first by n marvelous plsfciip and throw of young Mr. Hlckey , but Lei man welted President McGreavy for a sack and Slagle for two of them , and Don nelly brought both home with Its mate , nfter Miles had fouled out to McConnack. Then Iluslo came up to tie the score. Ho couldn't have tied his shoe. Ho struck out. The details : OMAHA. An. . in. sir. sn. PO. A.

The married members of the Omaha Cricket club , who have hitherto always proved too much for the unmarried mem- b ° rs , had the tables turned on them to the tune of 49 to 33. For the victorious bachelors the batting of Mes rs. Taylor , W. R. Vnughnn nnd C. H. Young were nmong the features of the game , nnd mainly helped to win the mntch. The first named gentleman's bit ting nnd Mr. W. R Vnughnn's bowling nte especially worthy of mention For the benedicts the bowling of O. 11. Vaughan was In perfect keeping with his last year's form , while the batting of Messrs. John Francis and Frank Hlldltch wns of the highest order. Messrs McPhcrson nnd Marshall started In well , but before their shoulders had be come thoroughly loosened they were dis missed for five rim each.

There will only be five starters In the Derby Monday. While taking jils work this morning Potsdam broke down nnd consequently will not start. While not looked upon as a dangerous candidate , Potsdam's trials at Lexington a week ago had Induced Colonel Swlgert to make the May payment on him , which he did a few days ago. Halma , Galen d'Or and Potsdam arrived yesterday and all of the Kentucky Derby starters nro now ready for the D rby on Monday. The other three- are Uasso , Cura tor and Laureate. A fortnight ago It looked like a walkover for Laureate with two great victories to his credit. Then came his defeat , followed by the victories of Halma and the track scorching work of Basso and Curator. The kaleidoscope had shifted from n one- horse race , nnl the Kentucky Derby developed Into what promises to be the best contest of that classic event In ten years.
