stealing tricks Is by the discard, and a

In Philadelphia. As players are more and

more of their hard drives in safer terri

rules, and leaving the pitching staff at
Just what It ought to be for satisfactory
service. Each man will now know wbuu
tils turn comes, and It will coma sufficiently
often to keep each In good working order.
By the time the boys get hack here the
weather will be warmer and every condi
tion will be more favorable for good ball
playing, and bettor results will be forth
coming. At that, the team hasn't made
audi a bad start and is doing much better
thnn It was a year ago at this time.
In disposing of Companion and IJeb
kardt, Rourke feels that he has let two
more good pitchers go to opposing clubs.
Llcbhardt has been singularly unfortunate
In an Otnuha uniform. His ability Is not In
question, for it Is admitted that he has good
speed, curves and control, with a head
sufficient to direct him in the Intelligent
use of his power, but he was never able to
land a game for the Rourke family. The
nearest he ever came to It was the thlr-teen-lnnlng
tie at lies Moines. He will be
of great service to St. Joseph and will
very likely show some of the home knockers
that he has the goodH. Companion was a
very popular man here two seasons ago,
but was out of the game last summer dur
ing most of the season and was practically
forgotten In the splendid work done by the
four men who went through the season
and won the pennant ror omana. i ni
fpring he started In bad, and has done little
work, so that his popularity dwindled away
to nothing, and his going to Colorado
Bpr'ngs is not the cause of any especial
mourning. He Is known to be one of the
most efficient left-handers In the business,
with good speed and curves, and barring a
certain occasional tendency to wildness. he
a-enerallv has rood control. His head work
Is mainly good and he Is especially effec
tive with men on bases. A tradition exists
here that he always has one bad Inning
In a game, usually about the fifth, but
If he is properly handled and given the re

Henllne, who will come to Omaha from
Bt. Joseph, will probably not be added to
the local roster for several weeks,. depend

game again. " He is a youngster of great
promise, plays a good fielding game, and
is hitting fairly w,ell. Rourke says he la

Joins the team. Just at present Omaha
has no one but a pitcher to chuck into
the f.eld in came a regular gets put out
for any cause.
Bobby Carter is proving that the atreak
of throwing he took on toward the close
of the season last year was not a bluff,
but Is getting them back from the right
field fence with more speed than ever. On
Thursday afternoon he caught a runner
at second who had slammed the ball hard
against the fence, and he has made a
number ot other returns bo faat that they
candy got into the assist column. Thlel
is doing right well in this regard, too, and
the opposition is developing a most healthy
regard for the Omaha outfield along these
, lines. Martin continues his fine work, and
is conceded to be the best second baseman
Omaha has had for a long time, and la
winning much popularity by his quiet and
gentlemanly demeanor. He is a finished
ball player and has certainly won a home
with the fans. The rest of the team Is
playing the game Just as it ought to be
played, with tha single exception ot hit
ting.
I At a meeting of the base ball contingent
of the Omaha Field club last week John
Lund was elected manager and Jack Kel
1. y captain of the base ball team. There
was some dissatisfaction over the way that
base ball has operated In the past, as there
has been more of a tendency to get in star
players who might maka a team to com
pete with some of the aeml-professional
teams of the city, than there has to have
the game run as an amusement for the

Owing to the illness ot E. W. Nash,
brother ot F. A. Nash, president of the
Omaha Driving club, the matinee scheduled
for yesterday was postponed for one week.

As a mater of fact, such a nonsensical
discard would not only hamper the players
of it at all other times, but the opportunity
for auch usa would depend upon having suca
a card as one could spare to ask for the
rough, and at the same time to cause no
damage to the suit from which the high
card was played. The notion seems to
ha vi been taken from the famous "rough

success several years ago by the Baltimore

A strong protest is made against Mahar,
outfielder on the Harvard base ball nine.
by the Harvard Bulletin. After declaring
that there is no inclination to lay too
much stress on the rigid enforcement of
all the rules which apply to the eligibility
ot candidates for Harvard's teams, the
Bulletin goes on to say: "In spite of these
opinions we think the athletic committee
made a mistake ln declaring Mahar eligible
for the university base ball nine. Here is
a man who, according to his own state
ment, played two base ball games last
summer in tbe published scores of which
his name appeared as Kelley. Mahar's
explanation is that at the last moment he
took tbe place of one Kelley, who was ex
pected to play but could not, and that the
name Kelley appeared on the score through
la mistake. The athletic committee may have
believed this story, but we Imagine it will
be difficult to convince our Tale friends.
for Instance, that the playing of Mahar on
the same nine under the name ot Kelley
was twice a mere accident. No one will
say anything, of course, but some vigorous
expressions of opinion will be made at
New Haven privately, and they will re
flect on Harv ard ln a way which we do not
like to think of."
The distinguishing mark of tha recent
Philadelphia Whist congress waa the num
ber of private conventions which were used
there. It need hardly be said that such
artifices are never adopted by really good
players, who realise that everything of
worth to the game has been threshed out
long ago, but there are, unfortunately, al
ways a few who try by sharp practice to
gain tricks, not by out-and-out fraud, but
by adopting some peculiar and unwritten
play ln the hope that tha adversary will
not find it out until It Is too late. This
feature was especially to be noted in the
open games. Of course. In the other events
