HAYES WINS CHAMPIONSHIP Iowa M.n Conclndti Mid-West Series Victor All Along. NEW STAR IN THE TENNIS FIRMAMENT v" Cullaalnsj Disposes of Veterans Thronrhnut Tournament With oat Loalnu- KIbbtIc et. Hayss of Toledo, la., by his dpfest cf Fletcher of Oalesburfi in the challenge match won th title of middle went tennis fllnglss champion for Saturday after- noon In the wlndup of the middle went tournament, which ha been held alt week lit the Field club under the auspices of tho Vnlted States National I .awn Tennis asso clntlon. The record of Hayes since he haa started Ms career as a tennis player Is one that any player would be proud to posses. Coming from the town or Toledo, la., which hns turned out some noted ath letes, he went to Cornell college at Mount Vernon, la., where he played some tennis, fiome of the. players at Toledo, thlnklnr that they saw championship material In the novice, induced him to (to to Rock Valley to the state tournament, wheie. he easily won the title of champion of Iowa. He then went to Eloux City and entered the trl-atate tournament, which whs re cently held in that city. The Slou City hoys. Induced him. to come to Omaha. In these three tournaments Hayes has lost but three sets' and In the middle wes? tout rtament just completed he UI1 not lose a set, but went riant through the tourna ment with a clean score, defeating both Enow and Peters, the cracks from thn Kenwood club of Chicago. Itars Is a modest, unassuming fellow, who carries nls honors well, and It Is the opinion of m. st of the player at the tournament th.it some new fumer who hns not s vet Ited Omaha will have to be found to wrest tho championship from him. nalrahars Pair Win Doubles. Sanderson and Fletcher of Qaletburg. 111., by defeating Snow and Petr t the Field club feoturday morning m the final-. Of the tournament won the title of i-ha-m-plons in doubles. The Enerhardt nn.tltoia, this year's champions, did not appear to defend their title, so the championship went to the winners of the tournament. Sanderson and Fleteher won by superior overhead work and the lob game, a game to which the Chicago cracks were not ac tustomed. Tholr style Is more of the low Irlvlng sort, with hard smashes. Anderson Won the contest for the left serving, all of the players In tli tourna ment being entered. Great interest was centered In the chal lenge match between Hayes and Fitclir. The concensus of opinion among those who saw Fletcher win the championship Inst year was that he did not play his game yesterdny, but this does not detract from the splendid victory Hayes won. Fletcher netted mnny halls, which is mi-inial for him. Hayes was also able to pass him many times on cross-court shots and on 'he whole played a much steadier gsme. R-uli played the back court game nearly all the time, although Fletcher would occxsl ju.-iliy try the net. Hayes has a superior manner Of placing tht ball far back In the bock rourt, which keeps his opponent way to the rear and then when he places the ball from side to side the opponent has to cover an Immense amount of territory to "get" the ball. Buch were his tactics in both the Snow and raters matches. Fletcher tried a lob game, but the wind brought the lobs short. Hayes did not attempt to smash much of the time, but rather devoted his energy to placing where Fletcher could not reach. pores Made Yesterday.

In that famous twenty-Inning game be tween the Chicago and Philadelphia Na tionals at Chicago Thursday Captain Frank Chance, aside from bringing in One of Chicago's two runs and batting in the second and winning score, made a marvel ous record at first. He took all of his thirty-one chances one an assist and the others putouts without an error. And the Chicago papers say some of his chances were most desperate and sensational. Bill Rotirke our own papa said but re cently of Chance: "He the best bait player In the business." And there are many others who think likewise. But the base ball world came very near being deprived of this wonderful star, and It might not be uninteresting here to tell how. It was back about 1S93 or ISM. Frank was catching for Fresno (his home town In California) against Vlsa'ia In the latter town one Sunday, when he was struck by a pitched ball and lay for five hours un conscious. His friends concluded it was all up with Frank. He was taken from Visa I la to Fresno on the train, where his father, a physician, finally succeeded In restoring him. Fresno and Vlsalla. with other Ran Joaquin valley towns, composed a llttls semi-professional league. Frank was quite a youngster then-for he Is quite young now but as Fresno's best catcher he was already a star and his friends predicted great things for him. This day Charley Button, a young pitcher of terrific speed and a mean, ugly in-shoot (he afterward pitched for the San Jose league team) was In tho box for Vlsalla. Frank came to bat In the fifth inning. Then, as now, he stood close to the plate and, being tall, was In clined to lean over a little, so that it was not easy for him to get out of the way of one of Button's swift in-shoots. The big fellow, already a good batter, had been a hard nut for Button, but this time he had two strikes and Button wrapped one of his nasty Ins around Chance s neck Utterly as well as figuratively for It took Chance Just above the left temple and he dropped like a log, never moving a muscle. The doctors said had the ball struck a sixteenth of an Inch lower Chance would never have known what struck him. The game was played out and Vlsalla lost, for, though Fresno was crippled with Chance out or the game, Button refused to go back in the box, nor would he consent to pitch any more that season, so deep was his grief over his injury to Chance. Stretched prostrate beside the plate that day Chance gave no promise of ever be coming the great star of the big diamond that he is today. ORE EX LEAK FAKKED THEM FAST I'l teller for Wast Omaha Diamonds la Flaeat Kind of Form. The West Omaha Diamonds defeated the First Nstional Banks in a hot and Interest ing game yesterday afternoon at Forty fourth and Jones streets. The play on both sides was exceedingly clever, but the game was made rather one-sided from the fact that tlreenlcaf of the Diamonds struck out twenty men, allowing but three hits and one walk. Smith's pitching for the Money lenders was competent to hold the score down. Other than the battery work of Oreenleaf and Coad the infield work of Powell and Hughes was excellent.

The Diets team won in a whirlwind finish in the ninth inning1, when the Field club players seemed to have me game well in Hand. Two of the lumbermen- were out when a ball was hit to Tay lor, who had a chance to throw to first and retire the side, but instead he attempted to touch the player. After he had missed he then threw to first, but the bail hit tho runner and the whole Field ciub teani went to pieces, with the result that the Divls team scored sis tallies.

I,sst week was a week of disaster for the Rourke family such as has not been seen this season. The experience in Col orado was surely disheartening, snd the loss of yesterday s game to Des Moines shows on ,hat little things success In base ball turns. A single mlsplay settled the whole story of the game, end Mefleid f. wa' w'th a victory he wasn t en titled to. The best he should have had was snother tie, and the nearest Omaha has come to besting him this summer has been two ties, one at Des Moines and one here. That boy is certainly lucky as well ,h"n,n, Slugger mil Schipke and Dr. Welsh kept their eye on the ball dur ing the week, and Welsh went through without a foozle. Joe Dolan was the busy boy, having forty-six chances st short In six games played, which is going some. Johnny Oondlng continues his careless work behind the bat, having accumulated ? 1 J. of , flv' "rors out of SOT chance ! ' am'"- Oondlng hasn't sloufihed on a chance this summer. If that boy .n't a catcher, the fans wonder where to go to find one. The figures for the teams work to date are: BATTING AVERAGES. Last Quick Schlpke Thlel ., Welch Dolan uamea. ab. r. h. Are.

It will surprise all but the wise ones to note that Frank Martin Is the base runner of the team. He has Shown both remarkable Judgment and speed on bases and in addition Is the best "Walter" of the lot. He was the slugger of the outfit during the fore part of the season, making the first home run and the first three-bsse hit credited to Omaha. When Bill Schlpke set sail for slugging honors, Martin had two home runs, three three-base and nine two-base hits to , his credit. This was on July 9 at Denver, when Schlpke made his first home run. At that time Bchlpke had five three-baggers and nine two-base hits chalked up on his record. Carter Is still the prince when It come to laying down a sacrifice and Is something of a base stealer as well, being only two behind Martin. Joe Dolan has also helped himself to a, few this season, as his record show. NEBRASKA TEAM WITHDRAWS Captain Not Satisfied with Condition af Sea Girt Conteat. SEA GIRT. N J., Aug.
