Omaha, 10; Bloux City. 7.
Ten thousand people crowded Into and
warmed Alt over Pa's Vinton street lot
to aee the Champions take two games
away from Ducky Holmes and his bunch
of Bloux Sunday, but they were doomed
to disappointment on account of a certain
streak of yellow displayed by Holmes, who,
after he had lost the first game by the
Mors of 10 to 7, Induced Umpire Haskell
to call the second gam because of dark
ness. He called up n rule of the Western
league which says the second game need
not be played unless two hours of sun
shins remain. The first game was over
t 6 o'clock, requiring two and one-half
hours of play. With tea minutes Inter
mission undr the rules the second game
should start at 6 : 10. Technically speaking,
the sun was scheduled to set Sunday at
7:19, which, under a strict Interpretation
of the rules, would have given nine min
utes leeway. Hut that was not what
Ducky Holme wanted. He simply wanted
an excuse for not losing the second game,
and It really seemed absurd to the Im
mense throng to call a game In the mid
dle of the afternoon because of darkness
when several hours of daylight remained.
Crowd Started Out at Noon.
What a crowd that was which filtered
out to the park by every known convey
ance. By noon the fans had started for
the grounds and although the game was
scheduled to start at t:S0 Pa had to Issue
orders to stop selling grandstand tickets
at 1:10, at which time the bleachers were
also filled and the throng began to crowd
all over the lot. Chief of Police Donahue
and a score of sergnants, patrolmen and
plain clothes men were active In keeping
the thousands off the diamond and away
from the" home plate. They crowded out
until they made a complete circle twenty
or thirty deep from the home plate around
the field and back to the home plate on
the other side. .
It was a good natured crowd and hun
dreds of women stood with the thousands
of men with no shelter from' the direct
rsys of the sun, through the two and a
half hours of playing.' The street cars had
more than they could do to get the people
to the park and up to the time of calling
the game, although the cars followed one
another closely, large numbers were left

When the first game was over th crowds
wsyed all over the diamond and the
T.ter faucets which Pa has over the lot
r wetting ths ground were given a heavy
Holmes was seen arguing with Haskell
ilurlr.g the Intermission, trying te get him
to call off the second game and he suc
ceeded In his efforts. When the gong was
sounded and the police had cleared the
diamond, Haskell announced tlie game was
called because not enough time remained
before darkness to enable It to be played.
Didn't Like Darky's Dirt.
When Haskell announced the second game
would be called off the crowd was dumb
founded and fans did not seem to realise
they were to be deprived of a chance of
Ducky and his bunch getting another pack
age handed them by the Champions. Pa
Rourke, who had not been consulted In the
matter, hustled onto the diamond and tried
to argue with Haskell, but he was no use.
The fans crowded around and for a time
It looked as though there would be some
real excitement, but a dosen police sur
rounded Haekelt and saw that no harm came
to Mm, although he was bombarded with
cushions. Holmes showed he was not on
the square with the crowd by taking his
team off the field. He and Rourke could
have arranged to play the second game
with any umpire, in spite of Haskell, If he
had wanted to be fair with the crowd.
Ground rules were put In force, making
all hits Into the crowd two-baggers. The
game from the standpoint of fast ball play
ing was not up to the standard of the previ
ous games In the present series, but It was
most interesting. - 1
Pat Ragan and McKay started out op
posed to each other and both were soon
forced to retire, the trouble was that each
stayed longer than he should. Although
Ragan passed the first two men up and
the third sacrificed he' steadied and held
the Bloux without a run In the first Inning.
But It was a different tale when Omaha
came to bttt. Fisher opened with a double
and the bombardment kept, up until three
had scored and In the second Inning four
more were added. Then McKay gave way
to Starr, who worked his famous In shoots
successfully until the eighth Inning, when
he In turn was bombarded for three hits
and gave two bases on balls, which netted
three runs and won tho game. Bloux City
had in the meanwhile duplicated the efforts
of Omaha and made four runs off Kagan
In the third inning and three of Hall In the
sixth inning, when Hall retired and Hol
lenbeck stopped -further scoring.
Omaha Begins la the First.
Fisher's double, a base on balls to Autrey,
Dr. Welch's double and- Belden' single
gave Omaha three runs In the first Inning,
In the second Inning all the players batted
once and LeBrand twice, scoring four runs.
The Kid mad first on Andreas' error and
Ragan was hit with the ball. Fisher sacri
ficed them along a base and King put
safe one between Andreas and Weed. Aut
rey followed with a single to left and Dr.
Welch walked. Austin hit to Andreas, who
again booted tne ball, and Belden's single
drove in tho fourth run. Belden made four
hits during the game.
That was the end of McKay, who was
followed by Starr. Although two hits
were made In each of the fourth, fifth
and seventh Innings, no runs were made
until the eighth, when the game was won
by Omaha.
Pat Ragan got his draw In tha third
Inning. He should have been taken out
of the game when hit on his pltelilng
arm in the second Inning, but Instead he
went In and befors ths sled was retired
four runs had been aoored. McKay
opened with' a double and Campbell and
Holme trailed with singles. Oreen flew
out to Austin and Weed hit a grounder
to Austin, but Chicken missed the throw
and the bases were filled with one out.
Andreas flew out to Fisher and ' Pat
forced a run by passing Granville. Bloux
City Welch was next up and hit for two,
scoring Holmes and Weed. Hall was
called In and retired the side without fur

and forced In the run which tied 'the
game. Starr struck out. Hollenbeclt took
Hall's place and the Sioux could score
no more during the rest of the game.
The eighth was tlie Inning which did
the business for Omaha. Austin put on
down the third base line, into the crowd

his fourth hit and drove him home.
Franck flew out and LeBrand walked.
Hollenbeck made his game sure by hitting

About 100 Bloux Cltv rooters had come
down for the game and occupied tho east
end of the grandstand, but their cow

the game. They were too far outnum

It is said by the wine ones who watch

did far better work than the score Indi
cates. Most of the hits came after there
had been plenty of opportunity to retire the
side. Fluornoy slugged the ball In frightful
manner and had the fielders standing back

The last time he fooled them and knocked

The home team this afternoon lost Its
first game to Mema by a score of 4 to 3,
in one or tne most brilliant contests seen In
this city for several years. It took twelve
innings to decide the contest and every one
was hard fought. Merna's team consisted
of the pick of the county and they played
exceedingly well together. Lewln, Merna's
pitcher, was placed in many difficult holes,
but he always was master of the situation,
and Brser of Broken Bow, pitched a steady
game and allowed less hits off his deliv
ery than Lewln, but the few hits that were
made off him were costly. The features
of the game were the all round work of
Smith, Broken Bow's pitcher, and the home
run by Oalnes, with a man on first bane.
