Omaha beat Slou City out of the Wnt
ern league pennant yesterday nfternonn by
winning both end of a double-header,
while Dee Moines waa beating Lincoln at
iJrm Molnea.
Vinton park waa the real battle ground
where the pennant of the league waa won
and lost Ducky Holmes seemed to have
It In hla grasp, but suddenly he felt It
slipping and brace himself aa he would he
could not stop the slide. When the series
started In Omaha and Des Molnea It waa
necessary for Holmes to win two games If
Des Moines should win straight through.
Ha. won but one and the pennant goes to
Des Molnea.
When the Ducklings Journeyed to Vinton
street park yesterday they had to win but
on game to dnoh the flag, but that was
easier said than done. The entire Rourke
family seamed to be crazy to beat Mr.
Holmes and all the fans rooted themselves
hoarse. He was Indeed In a hostile camp.
The 8oo were up a stump as whom to pitch
to gvt ths needed game.
Clarke was tried In the first game, but
there a mistake waa made, because Clarke
had nothing more on him than Dr. Welch,
lie pushed them straight over until the
game was lost In the very first round.
Hod Fisher opened on him with a three
nacker and Fox walked. King hit a single
and Fisher scored.
Clarke Driven from Hill.
Then Mr. Clarke waa canned and Alder
man of Tekainah went to work. He could
not stop ths rush until two more were
made, although Smith's errors helped the
Kourkes along. Kane beat out a bunt and
Welch hit one to Smith, which he fumbled,
while Fox scored. Pcmlry drew a pass
which scored another. Why talk any more
about the first game because these three
runs were enough to win when Patton
Inflated on pitching such steady ukll?
Jim Kane, formerly of Pittsburg, now of
Omuha and next year with Boston, gets
the big plum on the second game and in
cldently he won himself a home. His girl
was sitting In the grandstand when Jim
rame to bat with the Hloux three runs In
the lead.
"It Jim only makes a home run he can
have me," said the fair maiden and forth
with Jim won the girl. He swatted the
ball into the far corner of the grounds,
way over by the big animal on the fence,
and the best of it was that Fox and King
had singled ahead of him so his home run
scored three, tied the score and won him
a home.
Umaha tork the lead In the fifth when
with two out Fisher hit to right for three
sacks and tame home when Hunter
dropped an easy throw right In his hands.
Omaha Wins In Slatb.
In the first half of the sixth the Soo tied
the si ore again. Andreas opentd with a
single and was sacrificed to second. He
scored on Edmondson's single. The bcoio.
did not remain a tie very long for Umaha
came back In the last half of the sixth with
two runs. Welch doubled and l'endry
walked. Potts forced pendry at second and
Welch scored, he and I'otts working a
double steal. Gonding hit to Smith who
threw low to first and I'otts scored.
Ths Soo made another In the seventh,
Welch opening with a double and soured
on Hunter's uIukIc. Stovall worked a good
sacilflce, but Hunter dhd at second a.H
Keiley tightened up and did not let CliabeK
nor Smith hit the ball.
The' Ruurkes boosted up the lead one run
In the seventh when Fisher reached first
on Andieu.V error, was saci'lll. ed tu second
and stole home, he and King urkuirf a
double steal.
Alas, poor Ducky I

Notes of the Came.
All Is over.
Omaha Is In third place.
Patton and Keeley they are the boys
who did It.
Chick Autrey won a girl In Omaha and
took her to Boston and now Kane baa
made a home run.
Potts made the prettiest catch of the day
In the last Inning, when he ran back Into
Fisher's garden and caught one over his
head while falling.
King was given a nasty crack on the
head with a pitched ball, but he nervlly
kept In the game and helped to win It
with his little stick. His eye waa swollen
quite badly before the day waa over.
It Is quite probable that Ducky Holmea
now wlnhed that he had transferred his
Sioux City games to Umaha during the
Kaglee' convention as Pa wanted him to.
lie would then have played these iinal
games on his own grounds. x
A bunch of Sioux City rooters ' worked
hard in the grandstand, but they were
forced to take water before the afternoon
was over. They wanted to bet a little, but
were so completely overwhelmed by Omaha
capital that they did not put up a cent.
After Sioux City had taken a lead of two
in the second contest It looked as though
Keeley waa going to be easy. Ducky
Holmes decided that he had the pennant
won and started in his automobile for Sioux
City. He may have found that he had
missed the flag by two points about the
time he reached Tekainah.

DES MOINES WINS FROM LINCOLN

DES MOINES. Ia.. Sept. 28 Lange
pitched a remarkable game today, wlnnlg
the pennant for Des Moines. He waa hit
freely, but kept the hits so well scattered
that he waa not scored on until the laat
Inning, when Jude knocked a home run,
with two men on the bases. Des Molnea
had but one man left on the bases. Mat
tick's three-bagger with the bases full, fol
lowed by Dwyer's long fly gave Des
Moines four In the sixth Inning.
Tonight 3.000 fans celebrated the pennant
victory In fitting style, parading the streets
with a band at their head.
Owner Hlgglns stated tonight that he
will not drop base ball now and would not
transfer the team, as he had stated sev
eral weeks aj?o. "I will give Des Moines
as good a team next year If they want
one, said Mr HiKglns. Score:

FLAG GOES TO THE PIRATES
Victory of Philadelphia Over Chicago
Ends Eace for Pennant.
FANS HOLD JOLLIFICATION
Home Team Loses br Derisive Score,
hat Crowd Goes Wild When
Score Is Posted Manager
Given Parse of Gold.
PITTSBURG, Sept. 28.-The Pittsburg
Base Ball club today clinched the 1909 pen
nant of the National league. Although the
team was defeated bv New York by a
score of 13 to 8, Philadelphia's victory over
Chicago assured the pennant for the Pitts
burg club.
Should Chicago win every game now un
til the close of the season and Pittsburg
lose every game It plays, the local team
would ftlll be in the lead at the close of
the season by half a game.
A wild demonstration was enacted on
Forbes field today at the close of the game
with New York when the Philadelphia
Chicago score waa posted on the bulletin
board. The crowd made a rush for the
bench of the local players, but they had
retired to their dressing rooms.
Before the game today, Manager Fred
Clarke of the Pittsburg team was presented
with a purse of gold amounting to a little
over $600, the gift of local base ball en
thusiasts. Mayor William A. Mages of
this city made the presentation and lauded
the work of Manager Clarke and the mem
bers of the Pittsburg team.
Toady's game was a swatfest pure and
simple, with the visitors having the better
of the argument. The locals used four
pitchers, but all were hit freely. Ames
was hit hard In the ninth Inning, when
two s.ngles, two doubles and a triple net
ted the home club five runs. New York
scored early ln the game, securing a com
manding lead that could not be overcome.
I'ittsburg won the National league pen
nant ln 11)01, 1902 and 1903. this being the
fourth time and giving Manager Clarke the
distinction of being the only man in the
National league today with such a record.
Only three other manager of major league
teams ever had a better record, they being
Anson, Selee and Hanlon, whose teams won
pennants five time.
Five players on the Pittsburg; team at
present hold the record of being the only
ones ever members of a club that won the
pennant four times. They are Manager
Clarke. Shortstop Wagner, Center Fielder
Leach and Pitchers Leever and Philllppe.
I'ittsburg is the best hitting team In
either major league, having 1,282 bingles
to their credit, Including 304 doubles,
eighty-eight triples and twenty-four home
runs, and is second ln fielding, Chicago
being first.
The Pittsburg team la remarkable In the
fact that the second division of Its lineup
Is the hardest hitting aggregation of any
second division in any major league club,
these four men. Miller, Absteln, Wilson and
Gibson, having batted In more runs than
the second division of any other team.
An Interesting feature of, Pittsburg's win
ning the pennant today ia the fact that
O'Connor was catching for the local team
when the pennant was clinched, and the
only other game he caught this year was
on May 6, when his three bits helped
Pittsburg defeat Chicago, thus placing
Pittsburg ln the lead in the race.
Catcher George Gibson has caught '131
consecutive games, hla claim to a world's
record being disputed.-. Should he catch In
four more games this season, which he
will likely do. he wilt have' undisputed
claim to a world's record of the number
of games caught. Score:

Detroit Maintains Its Lead of Sixteen

NEW YORK, Sept. 28 Detroit's last ap
pearance In New York this season was
marked by a & to 0 victory, the visitors thus
making It three out of four on the series
and maintaining their lead of 10 points over
the Athletics. Both Donovan and Wilson
pitched gilt-edged ball, the Detrolter re
ceiving superior support and being Invinc
ible with men on bases. Two of New
York's errors helped Detroit to runs, the
visitor also using two of Wilson's bases
on balls to advantage.
While It has lost some ground on Its
present eastern trip, the Detroit club
stands an excellent chance this season of
winning Ita third consecutive pennant and
thereby establishing a record for the Amer
ican league, no, team of which haa yet
won the flag more than two years In suc
cession. Detroit's advantage over Phil
adelphia is now two and one-half games
or sixteen points. The Michigan team
has six games scheduled four with Boston
and two with Chicago and tf it should
win four of these the Philadelphia would
have to win all their seven remaining
contests ln order to tie for the champion
ship. Should Detroit win four out of six
and Philadelphia win seven straight, each
team would have ninety-nine victories,
fifty-four defeats and a percentage of
.647. In this event, according to the Amer
ican league constitution, a series of three
games would have to be played to decide
the tie. Philadelphia will play two games
with Chicago tomorrow and Detroit Is also
scheduled to play a double header in Bos
ton. The Philadelphia-Chicago series now
stand nine to eight In favor of Philadel
phia and the Detroit-Boston series eleven
to seven ln favor of Detroit. Score:

LETTER FROM TAFT RELAYED

Rnn from Carroll Made In five llosri

A message from President Taft to the
president of the Seattle exposition waa
whlxxed through Omaha and a consider
able part of Nebraska yesterday, the mes
sage being carried by automobile relay.
The relay which Is promoted by the Phil

from there In Just five hours. The ear, a
Ford, was driven by H. C. Sweeney of
Carroll.

COHMf I SKKR PROSPECTS GLOOMY
Sot Enonah Old Material Now Oat
for the Elerrea.
LINCOLN. Sept. 28-(Speclal. 'The
prospects this fall are not encouraging,"
said Coach "King" Cole of the Nebraska
foot ball team this morning. "1 would like
to prophesy a brilliant season for the Corn
buskers, but with the material which we
have on the squad at the present time, I
am able to say only that the outlook la
doubtful.
"The aquad Is large, although ita ranks
have been getting thin this week since
school opened and the candidates have to
journey to the state farm for practice.
"During the last two seasons I was with
the Cornhuskers, there waa a large quan
tity of excellent material, most of It well
developed, but this fall there are only a
few veteran players here. Nebraska's
eleven must be built up with several new
men who are yet new to the game.
"Taking Into consideration the heavy
schedule the Cornhuskers are facing thla
season, it would be foolish to say that this
Is to be another glorious fall. If the new
men develop faster than la expected we
may get a strong team early In the season
and go through with a good record.
"It seems almost an Impossible task to
get the team trained the way It ought to
be by the time of the Minnesota game on
October 18. Our prospects for that contest
look anything but brilliant."
"King" Cole Is not the only man on the
campus who Is looking down In the mouth.
All the students who have watched the
squad at work are discouraged at the out
look. The prospects for this fall are less rose
ate than they have been for the last five
or six years. Besides the five or six veter
ans and one or two new men. there have
not yet appeared any candidates who seem
to be first class varsity material. If the
eleven Is to be composed of the men from
the present squad, and If the new men on
the eleven do not grasp the fine points of
the game any better than the average
green xilayer the Cornhuskers can hold out
little hope of winning its big games. Some
of the men who are now back In their
studies must overcome the faculty barriers
If the team Is to keep Nebraska's reputa
tion upon Its present high level. This Is the
opinion of Coach Cole and other men con
nected with university athletics.
There are three men Collins, Ewlng and
Wolcott who would rejuvenate the present
eleven If they could he Induced to come
back to the squad. Efforts are now being
made to settle their cases, and by the end
of the week It should he definitely known
whether they are to Join the squad. If
they come back the varsity will probably
be a winner; If they do not, the season h
likely to end In disaster.
The forward pass was practiced a great
deal this afternoon and waa well handled
by the men. Captain Beltser exhibited good
form In hurling the anhereold. His passes
were accurate and were thrown for long
distances.
Another short scrimmage was held and
the candid a tee showed considerable Im
provement over Monday work, although
the defense of the 'varwltjr line was weak
and waa easily punctured by the scrubs.

"The first manifestation of the disease In
my case, appeared something owr a year

of a pea, which came on my forehead. The
Immediate cause nan traced to a po.sonous

grew slowly down until It covered my
nose and at last threatened my entire fare.
I called on the United Doctors and.lt was
then, and not till then, I received a correct
diagnosis. I have been under the care of
the United Doctors three months and am
thoroughly satisfied with my progress. The
skin on the affected parts is assuming a
