Omaha, t; Sioux, 4. .
Despite tha fact that the Rourkea made
nlna error and managed to secure but
six hits, they romped away with the first
Kama of the aerie with Sioux City yea
terday afternoon by a S to 4 acore. Klddo
Wilson, pitching for the Champa held Pa's
athlete down to the few hlta and pitched
clever ball. Kens' home run In tha alxth
Innlna; with two men on bases gave
Omaha three runs, and two more runs In
the eighth on,, three hlta took the game.
The Omaha piajers were off color, eepe
dally Pick, who made four errora out of
five chances. Kane had a bad day and
Kneaves alad went to he bad before the
end of tha game. Kane made hla errora
on ground balls. Sioux City played a
good game and backed tha pitcher at all
time with good work. For tha flrat five
innlnga Wilson was Invincible and allowed
but one hit. In the sixth, however, he
paened one man, another reached first on
an error and Kane aent tha ball over the
middle right field fence.
The Champa made three of that four
ruaa on errors. In tha second a hit. and a
wild pitch, followed by another hit gave
the Champa tha flrat run. In the aeventh,
two' errors by Kane and one by Pick, with
the assistance of a double gave Bloux City
two more runa, which tied up Omaha's
two-run lead.
The weather seemed to be made ex
pressly for base ball and put ginger In
the teams ,too much so In fact as the
numerous errors showed. Three thousand
people turned out to wltneas the fracas,
and when Kane made hla home run In the
sixth and sent two runs In ahead of him
self the noise from tha stands and
bleachers could have been In town.
"Ducky" ' Holmes, who maaaged tha
Mobile team of the South association, was
back with his old teammntea, the Champs,
and played in center field. At the bat ha
was weak, but hla work In tha field was
beyond reproach.
Neighbors . Oat af Game.
Amsler,. who Is playing In the place of
Cy Neighbors In right garden Is not the
trusty Cy by ong shots. His work at the
bat Is exceptionally weak, and in the field
he did not have an opportunity to show
. what ha could do, aa . he did sot have a
chance throughout the entire nlna Innings.
Sioux City made the first run of the
game In the third inning. Stem singled to
center,' went to third on Robinson's wild
pitch and scored on Breen's single to left.
In tha sixth tha Rourkea scored for the
first time. Robinson walked. Pick got
first on an error by Andreas, Pick going
to third. Kane clouted tha ball over the
right field fence for a home run scoring
two men before himself. ,
The next Innlna; ' Andreas doubled to
right. Stem got to first on an error of
Pick's, Andreas taking third. An error
on the part of Kane put Breen on, first,
Stem on second and scored Andreas'.
Another error by Kane scored Stem.
For Omaha Pick ilngled to renter In the
eighth, and took hlrd when Kane singled
to left, Pick' scored on Schoonover's sac
rifice fly to left. " A triple by Williams
scored Kane. Sioux City came back with
one In tha last. Barber took first on
Kneaves error, took second on an error
by Pick and was sacrificed by Stem to
third. Another' error by Kneaves scored
Wilson. Bcor: '

Persistant Advertising is tha Road to Big
Return
Transmississippi Will
Be All on One Course
All flay Will Be at Country Club
Tnlesi Entry Liit is Too
Larg-e.
The much mooted question whether the
Transmississippi Golf tournament shall be
played on one course or two has at last
been decided with a proviso. It will be
played exclusively on tha course of the
Omaha Country club unlesf the list of en
tries la so large that It will be too crowded
to work It In this way.
Now thai tha state golf tournament has
been completed and the Transmississippi Is
only a month away, the golf men of the
city, and especially of the Country club,
are bending every-effort to getting a big
entry list of desirable golfers here for the
event. And the prospects are that there
will be the full number of 3T0 to 400 golfers
who were expected to come to the event.
If more than 800 golfers are entered for
the qualifying round of the tournament It
will be almost Impossible to conduct the
tournament on one course.
In the state event each year there are
100 or more men playing the opening day
and the links are comfortably filled. With
200 on each course It will be neceesary to
work fast so that all may play their open
ing rounds In time, and on the other days
of the big tournament there will be events
for all those who are not In the first three
flights. . ' ' -
Jerome Magee, secretary of the associa
tion. Is working hard thla month, corre
sponding with men all over the west In re
gard to tha tourney. With more than forty
clubs entered, some of them anxious to
make a good start their first year In the
association, the entry list will be big. Golf
men all over the Mississippi valley, well
known In this state, are coming to the event
and promise to bring many of their club
mates with them.

Three men were dangerously hurt and a
fourth had a miraculous escape from In
Jury at 8:15 o'clock Saturday afternoon
when an automobile In which they were
riding at a extreme speed left the "Dodge
street road, eight miles out of the city,
broke a telephone post, turned upside down
over a barbed wire fence and lit In a corn
field. The Injured men are Frank H. Nlck
erson of Fremont, agent of the Hamm
Brewing company and owner of the
wrecked car; Edward Morris of Fremont,
his chauffeur, and Dr. E. E. Carroll of Des
Molnea, traveling salesman ' for the Dea
Moines Drug oompany. Leo Fell of Dallas,
S. D., a traveling man, was the other oc
cupant of the ear;
Dr. W. A. Thomas, an Omaha dentist,
driving In a machine immediately behind
them, stopped and extricated the men from
the wreckage. FranJt Nlckerson and Dr.
E. E. Carroll were taken by him in his
automobile to the police station, where he
reported the accident and then took the In
jured men on to St. Joseph hospital.
The police emergency automobile, with
Police Surgeon C. H. Peppers, was rushed
to the scene for the other victims. The
Bralley at Dorrance ambulance answered a
call to the place, returning to the St. Jo
seph . hospital with . Edward Morris, Dr.
Peppers attending him on tha way In.
Dr. T. J. Dwyer. who Is attending the
Injured men at the hospital, said late last
night that none would die,' unless undis
covered Internal injuries proved to be the
cause.
Chaaffemr Baaly Hart.
Edward Morris, the chauffeur. Is the
worst Injured of the three. A badly bruised
back, laceration of the left arm, right knee
and the calf ef the right leg, a severe gash
In the right thigh, cuts and bruises about
the right side of the head and Internal
hurts were his Injuries. ,
Frank H. Nlckerson was badly bruised
and laceratra about the legs- and may have
sustained internal Injuries. No bones were
broken. 1 '
Dr. Carroll haa four broken ribs besides
dangerous Internal Injuries. After a cur
sory examination last night it was said
the broken ribs were pressing on his
lungs.
Fell, was able to tell, partly how the ac
cident had happened. The front, right
wheel of the automobile, he said, broke
under the strain of the machine turning
the curve' Just beyond the Alamlto dairy.
"We were going at a pretty fast rate."
Fell said, "as we passed over the little
bridge in the Dodge road near the dairy
and started down the straight stretch of
roadway toward the curve where the ac
cident took place. The chauffeur was
turning at the wheel heading for the curve
when the front wheel on the right side
seemed, to give way. Several spokes broke
out. The machine went out of the road
and went about fifty feet along the grass
at the side before striking the telephone
poet. I was In the back seat and fell out,
I think, before we struck the pole.
"The telephone post was broken off at
the ground and at two other places above.
The- machine tumbled down a ten-foot
embankment, going over a barbed wire
fence and landing in a wreck of bent and
twisted Iron and brass, turned about In the
direction from which It had come."
Nlckerson and Dr. . Carroll were found
beneath the wreckage. Morrla was thrown
several feet, landing unconscious In the
cornfield.
The wrecked machine, a large Wlnton
touring car, is a total loss.
