NEW YORK. April 11. The first game of the sean between the New York and Phila delphia National league teams waa for feited to Philadelphia, 9 to 0. For Borne unexplained reason there were no police at the Polo grounds today and the crowd surged on the field during the second half of the eighth inning. The players were unable to continue, but Umpire Klem, In stead of immediately calling the game and giving It to Philadelphia, waited until fif teen minutes hud expired. A roundsman and three patrolmen meanwhile came on the grounds, but they were unable to do anything with the unruly mob, some of the members of which amused themselves by throwing bottles, glasses and cushions In all directions. The roundsman told Koger Hresnahan of the local club he had orders not to lnterfe:e with the crowd and the demonstration turned Into a good-natured Jollification. Soon I mplre Klem announced that he had forfeited the game to Phlla- deiphla. The score wtia 3 to 0 In favor of tn8 visitors. Score: PHILADELPHIA. NEW YORK. U.H.U.A.E.. U.M.U.A.&. Thomaa, cf.

Arlle Latham's War, "Arlle Latham to this day Is not famous for saving bis money, and In the old days he had a reputation of being chronically broke," says Tom Loftus. ''So long ago 1 am ashamed to tell Just when, I was man ager of a ball team on which Latham was playing third base. We were on the fag end of an eastern trip and Arlie ran out of cash and needed It badly. He had touched me so often he knew an ordinary appeal Would have little success. "This morning he came to my room with real tears In his eyes. 'Tom, my mother-in-law Is down with typhoid fever and that robber of a doctor In my town has refused to treat her unless his fss is paid In ad vance.' hs said. "I was touched by the appeal and handed out the money. "Next day lnth sought me out and said: 'Tom, I am going to turn over a new leaf and settle down. I am going to marry the old girl and need 1-0 to pay the parson.' " 'Do you mean to tell me you are going to marry your mother-in-law?' I gasped. 'Are you daffy T' "Iith.im calmly pulled out a note book, and. after looking over the scrawl that covered the flret page, said: 'Say, old pal, come to think of It, 1 hurled her on the coin you gave me yesterday, and I want this coin to buy a suit of black clothes.' "I counted out the money while still dazed." Wichita for Three Games.

OMAHA STRONG IN EVERY IEP ARTMENT Honrke Will Offer Past I,o n( Young sters Instead of Veterans and Other Teams Will Ml Re Strons. Western league teams now know the day of their beginning, April 17. The delay In announcing the schedule has been due to the uncertainty as to the rlroult. It was desired at the close of last season to add Topeka and one other town. Pt. Joseph preferred, to the Western league circuit for the purpose of making It eight Instead of ilx clubs strong. This plan was defeated, although it was followed until the very last. President O'Nell followed the instructions of the league members to the letter, but could not carry the point in face of the law and the opposition of the Western association. Six clubs will again contend for the pennant, and spring practice shows that they will be much nearer matched than last year. Omahn In (looil Shape. Omaha la In especially good form. Pres ident Rourko has for once abandoned his traditional policy and has a team on which the younger players preSiailiiate. This will to some extent militate against the 'Inside game," which has won for Omaha such distinction In Western league circles, for that game calls for seasoned players. Some time will be required to get the new boys versed in these fine points, but Papa Bill Is a splendid Instructor and his high school has turned out a great many fine ball players. It is not at all likely that he will fall this season, especially as he has such a remarkably fine lot of material to start on. It he can get thla team under proper headway it ought to show ball of the fastest sort by the middle of June. It la stronger In every way but experience than any team Omaha has had on the dia mond since the beginning, save in pitchers. The pitching staff, although It has no Pnester or Owen or Brown, has men of ability and Judgment, who are up to West ern league requirements and who will de liver the goods with regularity. Other Teams Strong;. Sioux City has been much strengthened since last season, the return of Sheehan being an element that will not do to over look. With this hustling little player on third and directing the team as captain the Sioux will be much more formidable than last year, when they were disorgan ized. Lincoln Is hardly so strong, the loss of Qulllln leaving a gap that Manager Holmes has not been able to fill. He has not been ao fortunate as Rourke In secur ing third basemen. At present It seems that Ducky may have to pluy the bag hlm aelf. Eddie. Wheeler Is talking of the great things Denver will do and la putting the Grizzlies through a stiff course of tra..ilng In ord:r to make good on his talk. This will be a bunch of veterans, men versed in every trick of the game, and It ought to make a good showing. Des Moines, too, will have a bunch of old-timers, with Mike Kelley at the head, and expects to figure In the race from the first, Just as last season, when the Champions had the field strung out all the way. Prank Selee will present a mixture at Pueblo, but thinks he has some of his raw material of last season licked Into shape to play ball this year. The Pueblo team of 1908 was com posed of much Individual strength, but couldn't get together. President O'Nell has secured some real umpires for the summer and gives It out that the games are to be controlled by the umpires all through the summer. Rowdyism will not be tolerated and spec tators will see ball games and not disputes. It he will only hold to this the success of the season is assured. PA'S COLTS BEAT THE COLLEGIANS C'rrlitbtnn Team Holds I. earners Down to Close Score. Crelghton university team made a splen did showing In a game of ball with Pa Kourko's Western league team at Vinton street park Thursday afternoon, although the wind was blowing a gale across the diamond, which made perfect ball out of the question. The final score waa 8 to 2, and the Rourkes won by superior hitting, lourten hita being made off Liuilgan's de livery, lour of which were double and one a home run. It looked at times an though the Rourke family would score many more runs than It did, but steady work by the collegium! held the score down.
