Villi filling ceremony th Western league
l Jienrtant for wii unfurled at Vinton
street park Saturday afternoon before all
' tha fan ofQmaha who dared to stand a
; chance of a drenching In order to witness
: th performance, for It rained up to the
1 time for the game to start and at Intervale
during the name. Pn won the game I to 1
to fnaka the rraslon more Joyous.
In the absence from, the city of Mayor
Dahlman Councilman M. F. Funkhouaer
acted aa official spokesman, and he waa
gtirrotinded by the two teams, Umpire Has
kell and Pa Rourke for protection. He made
a few preliminary remarks and then the
Prnihii and Lincoln ptiavers marched to the
flag Maff In center field, where the banner
waa hoisted to the creese.
A touching ace ne was enacted out at the
. pole. A e the Champions and their opponents
from Suit Cierk surrounded the ensign of
triumph Pa Rourke made an address. Pos
terity may never know what ha said, but
the 1 Champ" know. His words could
not, ot course, be heard by the fans away
off in the grandstand and bleachers, but
messengers . from the front brought back
the report that they were eloquent and full
of feeling. It Is not generally known that
your Pa Is an orator, and that, too, may
never become known to posterity, but Pa
has a tongue of silver and a voice as vi
brant as the winds that swept In
and around 81im Hnll'a twisters yesterday.
- Pea a it t Ref wm to lafuri.
Whether it be as good an omen as the
fans of Chicago Insisted waa the case when
the pennant of the Chicago Cubs refused to
unfurl or whether It was simply contrari
ness, it ! "ay never be known, but at any
rate the wnant grit unfastened at the bot
tom of t, i rope and refused to unfurl at
first, but ung like a "rag" In truth, al
though the 'wind was blowing q tflte a gale.
When the flag was finally hoisted Mr.
Funkhduser pitched the first ball and the
game was on.
, Mr. . Funkhouser explained the delay or
two In the flag raising was due Mo the
death of Henry Chedwlck, the father of
base bail, and added: "Base ball Is our
national sport and has a stronger hold on
the people than any other game. Look on
11 shies of you and you will sea the bright
eyee of some beautiful women and many
handsome men, all eager for us to raise
the flag, pitch the first ball and play the
game."
'Twas a real ball game that Buck Franck
and Bill Fox handed out for the festive oc
casion, a game perhaps not to the liking of
some, but a great game for those who like
to"sc 'a pitcher's battle. Zackert and Hal!
were' pitted against each other and both
pitched remarkable ball. Lincoln's only
runs1 came, one through an error of Cap
tarn Franck and the other through an error
of King. 1 J
Franck thaaare Battlaa; Order.
Captain Fox trotted out a southpaw and
as a 'consequence Franck changed hl bat
ting order that all his left-handed hitters
might not be bunched. Fox made the firat
run. for Lincoln by a series of comedies.
He waa walked to first, went to second on
a. passed ball a"nd scored when Franck
let an tmy one go between his legs. In the
fourth inning Lincoln scored another when
King boolrd a grounder from the bat of
Thomas. Thomas ws sent to second on a
balk and ccored on Fltipatrick's single, the
only hit marie by Lincoln until the last in
ning, when Kins hit one over second base.
Tw) runs wrre made In the second Inning
for Omaha, Zackert was tiing to keep
then a nay from the plate for Householder
so he hit Hni Instead. Austin failed on an
attempt at tafiifkte, but he made up for It
by stealing second and then, while the vis
itor .re napping, he also purloined third,
but .ki tajglit at the plate when Gonding
rolled one. to timd. Autrey had walked In
, Ihe meanwhile and he and Gotidlng scored
.when WcU ii hit one just out of the reach
of Fox, but whic'.i the captain was able
to, bump .into. Just hard enough to swerve
the u.r. i It was a three-aacker.
FU.'?atrlek Is Erratic.
l):r:.a slatted to score again In the third
InniUu hia Fitipatrlck, whom' Green has
Juat secure J fur Lincoln, got off on the
wrong foot. Ho niuffcd a popup which
FlU-n sent toward third and when King
placd another, meant for a aacrifice, he
' madp a wl'.d throw to first on which Beiden
scored. Kinx went to third on Franck'e out
and,, always alert, scored on a passed Ball.
Tie Houthe family scored another for
g Kd measure, in the eighth Inning on two
male j ami a, base un balls.

Panders was on deck aa lively as any
of the rert of the family. He will he ready
to accompany the team west. Rltsman will
be farmed out until next year.
Welch made a pretty stop of a line drive.
It looked as though he had caught the
ball, hut to make assurance doubly BMre
he rolled over a couple of times and then
caught a baseman on the throw.
Funkhouser made a better out at pitching
the first ball than has been done In eome
years. He was'a member of the old Union
Pacifice, one of the greatest amateur base
ball teams ever put together In the weal.
It la a real pleasure to watch Billy Fox
run bsee, even If they are Omaha bases
he steals. Omaha always heaves a aieh of
relief when he Is dieposed of. Certainly
President Green could not have a better
man o lead hta team. In every department
of the game Captain Fbx sets his men an
example and atandard that would win pen

DENVER, April 2i.-Joke, that's all the
game was, nothing serious about It. 80 cold
was the wind that blew over the field the
players nearly frose to their places. Be
tween bases on balls, fine hitting and the
way the wind blew high flies, the visitors
got so far ahead in the third Inning that
nothing kept the spectators except having
no pi ace" to go. Score: .
