Omaha, 12; Denver, 1.
Sltipger Bill made god on' hl reputation
at Vinton street park Friday. Although
li whs ladles' day and tha atandi were
filled with women they had no terror! for
the Skipper, who batted and fielded like
a Trojan or aa a Trojan would have If
they'd played In thoae daya. He speared
everything which came his way, but when
It came to wielding the willow ha shona
with a glisten which would Illume any
crimpany.
Hchlpke started the batting- rally which
won the game for Omaha and then fol
lowed It up later with two mora hlta. He
made two hlta In one Inning and waa the
real nodal favorite. Harry Welch waa al
most overlooked by the women who usually
patter their little handa together when
he corriM to bat. It waa Bill Schtpke who
attracted all the feminine attention. Even
the handsome Swalm who pitched a mag
nificent game, waa almost overlooked, ao
wrapped up were the women In tha playing
nf Skipper Bill.
Hut women were not the only fans pres
ent, for there were over 1,500 members of
Hill, the Skipepr, perform. ct thmrf
Hill the Skipper perform. They were not
disappointed. Bill, by the way, la glad to
g'-t back Into an Omaha uniform and he Is
nto afraid to aay ao. Hla happiness can
be seen fairly oozing out of every pore.
Here is the tale of his performance. For
four Innings Jackson, formerly of Omaha
a lid. now pitching for the Grizzlies, had
held Omaha to one mcasley little hit and
It wan up to someone to break the Ice.
Kill waa first at bat In the fifth Inning
and in answer to the cry of the fane, hit
It out for a neat double. That waa the
opening wedge the Rourke family had been
looking for and from that on what they
did to Mr. Jackson was a plenty. They
clouted the ball al lover the lot and put
such a case of rattles on the old timers
from the Rockies that three errors were
made and six men passed.
Bats In Two Rail.
As aald before. Bill Schlpke hit a dou
ble. He made two hits In that Inning.
After all had batted around and It came
Bill's turn to bat again Kane and Welch
were on bases, so Slugger Bill simply sig
nalled them to get ready to come home
and hit out the single that allowed them
to cross the plate with ease. Three hits
In one day and then they say he can't hit.
Rut, while all the nice things are being
sold about Schlpke, a ortain new pitcher
must not be overlooked, for Mr. Swalm
pitched n splendid game of ball. He held
tlie Grizzlies to five hits, passed but two,
struck out six. made a hit, a run, a put
out and three assists. A prett ygood record
for a new man on strange grounds against
those heavy-hitting Gunthorpes.
Denver's only run came along In the
sixth Inning, when, with one out, Lindsay
singled down by first. Swalm made a
wild pitch on one of his spltters and then
Maag swung on cne which scooted down
the third base line, out of reach of Skipper
Hill, and Undsay scored.
Manager Jones took a whirl at playing
third base and did right well, making
every play which came his way. Stankard
was played In center field and Thompson
benchjd.
Omttha made all the runs In two Innings,
seven in the fifth and five In the seventh.
It was really a shame to take the money,
but Denver still has its best pitchers In
reserve. Tat Bohunnon hgs not lost a
game to date and Olmstead la on deck.
Denver will he the attraction Saturday
und Sunday, when the .stands will un
doubtedly he taxed, for Omaha has a new
pitcher in Keeley to spring.
The score:

Tfotes of the Game.
Fisher's record looks pretty good to the
experienced eye of a real fan. Two hits
and two runs In two times up.
Borne fan yelled at Slugger Rill that he
wotiifl give 2 for a hit and Bill Is two
plunks ahead. The same fan offered
Welch $1 for a hit and Welch went ahead
ti.
Schlpke pick up the grounders even
more cleanly than he did three year ago,
when he was the star third baseman In the
Western league. He still has his mighty
whip, too.
King made two errors In succession, hlit
they did not count In the score. Two were
out, end the errors, with a base on balls,
filled the bases In the third, but Hartmnn
could only hit a liner to King, who re
deemed himself by holding It fast.

I.akealdee Want Game.
The Lakesldes would like to get a game
for next Sunday afternoon with any team
avei aging 17 years. Cail Al Bailey,
Webster 19UL
"Pld Slugger Bill get in?" "Is the Skipper
here?" "Are you sure Schlpke wtU play
this afternoon?"
These were a few of the Inquiries that
began to float over the telephones Into the
Smoke House early Friday morning.
Yes, Schlpke got In ami just to show you
how glad he waa to get back home, the
minute he and Bert Keeley got off the 1:'J)
Overland train at Union station and got a
bite of something to eat the Skipper said;
'Come on, let's hurry on out."
VHurry on out where?" asked Keeley.
"Why, out to the park, of course; where
else is there to go?" says Slugger Bill,
looking at his man In utter amasement.
And bright and early Schlpke and Keeley
applied for entrance to Vinton street park.
"Hurry up, give me a suit and let me
get lit shape for the game today," de-
I manded the Skipper as he butted Into the
club house where Manager Franck, with
the other members of the Rourke family,
I soon appeared.
"Never saw a human being who loved to
play ball like that man in my life," said
Keeley, standing with his arms folded and
gazing at the little third baseman, aa he
fairly tore out of his street clothes Into
his uniform. "Why, he waa perfectly kld
dlsh about getting back to Omaha. And
he will play the game of his life, too."
"Cert," was Schtp's laconic reply when
asked If he was glad to get back.
Time to Talk.
That was aa much time aa he had to
talk. He got right out on the diamond and
went at It and infused a lot more Ufa into
the tram.
Bill told Pa he was "awful glad" to see
htm. but Pa didn't know Bill was in town
i until someone phoned in from the park to
the Smoke House.
Schlpke will play this afternoon at his
old corner on third and Keeley will pilch
SatutdaA or Sunday. Manager Franck
hasn't derided which.
President Itourke and Manager Franck
are delighted, as they should be, to get
these two men. Schlpke always waa t
favorite with your Pa and Pa chuckles
every time he thinks of the great stroke
he made in regaining possession of tha
little fellow and the fans are applauding
Pa for his excellent achievement.
The Skipper found Just three men on the
team who were on It when he waa here
before Sanders, Welch and Gonding. And
you should have seen the reunion he had
with those three. They fell to talking of
the old boys Miner Brown. Jack Pfclsler,
Frank Owen, Oenlns, Bobby Carter and
others who have gone on.
Both Schlp and Keeley were much Im
pressed with the present Omaha team.
"Don't you think w ought to win tha
pennant, Boss?" waa the unique way the
Skipper greeted your Pa.
"Sure, with you back," said Ta.
When Schlpke found that he had got
back on ladles' day he waa ao tickled he
burst right out laughing.
