The first cam waa captured by faater alt round work on tha bne and opportune hitting; tha eeeond waa taken beeaue Oua Thompaon, raf uaed to allow tha flloux but one hit while tha home folka were making right off Mr. Corbett. Thla all helpa In tha grand ohaaa which la now on for the pennant In tha Weetern league. No cooler apot oould be found tn Omaha Sunday than Vinton atreet park where over .000 f ana fathered to watch tha Rourkea battle for-the championship. They wer rewarded with two mighty faat game of baaa ball, for both teaina - were on their mettle and put up a aplendld article of the national game. Bressler and Sandera, the two southpsws, were pitted agatnat each other ii tha opening conteat and although Sander waa hit tha harder of the two the Rourkr were faater on bsses and made more of their few hlta. In the second game It waa Qua Thompaon a gain it Cor bett and Qua' carried off tha honor, pawing but one and allowing but one hit. Kin Open vrltn n Pass. In tha opener Ethelbert King drew a paaa which ha oaahed tn on Franck'a double and a fielder' choice on Dolan'a bunt to tha pitcher. That waa the flrat run. The next two were made by a clever exhibition of tha bunting game.- With one out Graham made a clean alngle and Autrey'a aa(e bunt put him on aecond. Graham and Autrey pulled off a doubla ateal before the Sioux knew what waa going on. Oondlng waa not to be outdone by the klda of the family, ao he made a aafe bunt aa well, acorlng Graham and putting Autrey on third. Oondlng attempted to take aecond and Colonel Weed fumbled the ball until Autrey had soored. That made three for Omaha. War Sandera waa given quite a lambast ing In tha alxth Inning, foir clean hlta being mads for a total of two runa but he aettled after that little let up and the game finished a tt waa. Campbell opened the inning, with a triple to the fence and Nance followed with a alngle which aent Campbell home. Nance went to aecond on Nobllt'a alngle and came home from eeoond on a alngle by Slattery ' which went Into Welch' garden. Welch threw wild to the plate or tha run would have been headed off- : . Second Game Short and Sweet. The eeoond gam; waa ahort and aweet, but an hQur and ten minutes being con sumed in playing the seven Innings. Omaha made four. runa in the first three Innings and It was aoon seen the game waa safe aa Thompaon refuaed to let up. In the flrat round King and Franck singled and Autrey boosted them along; with a sacrifice. A paaaed ball, credited to Sheehan let King come horn from third and Pranck kept coming alao and waa aafe at the plate be cause Mr. Corbett dropped the ball when Sheehan shot It at him. , :'. The aecond, - run waa a simple affair. Austin made 'a two-eacker and LeBrand scored him with a alngle. ' King opened the third inning with a alngle. Just aa he had the first -round. . .He , stole second and Franck aaortflced' him to third. He scored on k well placed bunt by Chlckerlnft. That waa all the runa Omaha made In the aecond game but It waa enough,, for Sioux City made but one. The lone run captured by the Sioux In the aecond game waa caused by a two baa? throw on the part of Thompson, which waa followed by the only hit of the game. Sheehan' hit an easy one to Qua who threw out of Polan'a reach and Sheehan took aecond because of ground rules, made be cause the overflow crowd was scattered over the field. Williams followed with a double which, he pulled out of Autrey'a reach and Sheehan came home. Two gamea will be played thla afternoon. Tha acore: OMAHA. AB. R. H. TO. A. E.

Shanahan, one of the old players of the Originals, umpired, and did a fine Job, The second game went but seven Innings, aa per agreement between the managera. Morgan made Ms first appearance before the Omaha fans, when he ran for LeBrand Omaha's hlta went almost In palra In the aecond same. King, Autrey and Brand each taking two. The Rourkes are playing th "btml ' game to the utter dismay of pitchers. And they are winning by thla method, twice In the second game. Hes seemed to he onto his lob all right, but waa nailed both tlmea In trying to steal second. Pa certainly picked up a precious parrel In that boy King. Shame, too, since Com Iskey already had him aigned at Lincoln. In the third inning of the open hi k game a aplendld pickup by Captain Franck, with two out and a man on third, aaved a run. Sioux City would not be eo far down the line aa It la now If It had been poaaeased of the preaent team at the opening of the aeaaon. One of the banner crowds of the season waa on hand to see the double-header, a couple of hundred being forced upon th grans because of lack of room In the atanda. Austin took two base on his hit In the second rm, when 11 Was worth but a single. His nerve upset Nobllt. who did not return the ball In any very elegant form. Pranck made one of the beat-plaeed hit ever. Ho waa trying to bunt, when aud denly Granville ran from ahort to second to catch a runner, and Pranck poked an easy one aquarely Over th spot that Oran vlllo had vacated. Rain threatened throughout the aecond game, but did not come. A thick ehower of cushions came at Ita cloae though, from out of the left field bleachers and a couple of policemen on the diamond got the butt end of It, being pasted a dnien time or more with Pa' fine, large pillow. Nance did a trick that merited a severe reprimand. In the econd game he hit the bail to Ou Thompaon and deliberately turned and walked to the bench without ao much a making a move to run. Such a thing Is never excusable and particularly reprehensible when Thompson Is In the box, for If never better than an even chance that Qua can throw the man out at tlrst. That' hi one weakneas. Llneola Lambasts Miller. LINCOLN, Sept. l.-Fof the first time In sixteen year a game of base ball . waa played In thla city, on Sunday. The contest was between Dea Moines and Lincoln, and Lincoln won, 12 to 1. ffoscoe Miller waa driven from the box before the end of the first Inning, and Sporer fared little better. Nine runs were made by Lincoln In the Initial round. Dea Moines scored once In th sixth on two singles and an out. Only eight Innings were played on account of darkness. Warrants were sworn out by Rev. H. J. Battln for the arrest of the playera. These were served after the game waa over and the playera will appear In the court of Justice Rlsser today to answer the charge of violation of the atate statutes. The base ball men will carry the case to the aupreme court If they are fined. They hope to secure the reveraal of an old opinion of th aupreme court. Score; LINCOLN. AB. R. H. PO. ' A. E.

J lift PARR AND FRED BEEL START Flrat Match, of Wrestling; Season October IS. Fred Beel And Jim Parr will wrestle nt the Auditorium the night of October 15. best two out of three, catch-as-catch-can, and the winner will wrestle Frank Gotch, champion of America. This announcement Is made by Pete Loch, who. Is arranging a series of matchea for the fall and winter, which he hopea will be an Improvement, if possible, upon the splendid string of wrest les given under his and Cy Perkins" aus pices at the Auditorium last winter.' The Beel-Parr match will be the.atarter. Beel and Parr have never' met on h mat. That they will put up an Interesting mill goea without saying. Both men are powerfully strong, quick aa cata and know the game thoroughly. Parr la a little taller and heavier than Beel. but It is doubtful If he Is a mite stronger, though he prob ably has the better of the little fellow on necks. Both men work much alike; they go In for Wood from the start, trying to wear the life out of the other fellow. Parr Is at some disadvantage-In not being able to hold hi wind for the eei-ond and third bout s well as lie can for the first.' Bed stays -better. Parr usually downti his man tn the first fall and If he In In the bent of form he gives him a terrible run for his money up to the finish. In both his matchea last winter with Farmer Burns at the Aud itorium he took the first foil, but was un able to hold wind -with the Farmer, who won both matchea. - Some fana believe Parr would actually make a better showing against Beel than Burns, though Beel la regarded aa the coiner for championship honora when Gotch laya them down. There are some things which the Farmer has that Beel has not, and which are particularly difficult fur Parr to meet. Beel 1 a whlrlwlrid. Standlne- bi-t five -feet six and weighing n little over 160. he is a wonderful piece of human mechanism In point of construction and operation, and no man Is safe on the mat with him. Even the mighty Ooch must look around to see what's propping him tip when this young ster gets after him. The fact is Beel once won the championship away from Gotch for a little while and ho Is still ambitious of being able to get it permanently. Whether he ever will is a question too serious to be answered here. Gotch la re garded by many as the peer of any man who was ever on the mst. No matter who wins In the Parr-Becl match, great Interest will follow that en counter on the meeting between the win ner and Gotch. During the course of the season Farmer Burns will be seen, aa he has been for year and yeara. He la approaching the half century mark, but is still putting up masterly work aa a wrestler.
