Jack Holland's Joeiea bunched their
hits in the seventh and eighth innings
and won the last game from the Rourkes
by a score of, 4 to 1, breaking even on
the series.
Little "Hank" Chellette was given a
chance to come back and gat . revenge
for the beating he got in the first game
of the series, when the Saints were shut
out after he had hurled a dandy game.
Manager Arbogast, intent on getting
three games of the series, trotted out
one of his stars, Carl Robinson, to do
the slabbing. The big fellow staved off
the heavy firing until near the end of
the game.
The hangup came in the seventh in
ning and the Josies slipped one across
while Robby was easing up. Powell,
the first man up, clouted out the Josies'
second hit of the game, a single to left.
Watson rolled one down the first sack
line to Kane and Powell went to sec
ond. Zwllling then spilled the beans
with a single to right and Powell raced
across the plate.
- It was considerably more of a bat
tle than , the statistics indicate. Until
the Mlssourlans slammed the ball in the
eghth it was anybody's game. Up to
that time neither team bad accumulated
a single tally.
Captain Kelly Settles.
Just before the ' game it looked like
there was to be a repetition of Umpire
Johnson's depopulation stunt of the
previous day. Captain Kelly, who had
been thrown out of the game the day
before, had not come across with the big
ftX" spot which usually accompanies a
"can" from the field. Johnson put the
"nothing doing" sign on the game until
he did come. Kelly tried to bluff,, but
Johnson wail not in a bluffing mood and
finally the big Saint came across aad
the game was started. Johnson was njot
trifled with the entire day and his de
cisions were undisputed law through the
melee, - -
The Rourkes did not break Into the
run column until the. eighth, after the
Josies had garnered four runs. In the
eighth Meinke got to first safe on
Justice's error. Gossett sacrificed. Chel
lette' fanned and Kelly put the game on
ice when he doubled to left, scoring
Meinke. Powell ambled to the plate,
laced the ball to left for another double,

and Powell slid over ' the bag to the
"accompaniment of Johnson's stentorian
"safe."
Omaha got its run on Justice's single

to left. Score:

handed Umpire Johnson.

their hits.

Gossett, Chellette and Kelly as fast as
they came to the plate.
. Powell fattened his batting average con
siderably by getting three hits, including
a double, in four times up.
From Des Moines the Omaha team goes
to St. Joseph for four games, two of
which fWlll come on the Fourth. .

Jack Johnson is
Offered His Price
to Fight Jeannette
NEW YORK, June 29. -If Jack John
son cares to take part in a real fight
after he gets through with Jim Flynn,
whom he once characterised as "Just
la chile." the time, place and opponent
have been found. Victor Breyer, the
Paris boxing promoter,
round bout In October. .
Johnson has repeatedly said that he
would meet any man selected, provided
his price was forth-coming. He fixed
that price at $30,000. The Paris promo er
has agreed to give him the money, win.
lose or draw. Jeannette is willing to
make the match on any terms whatever.
Therefore it is up to the champion to
accept or give a good reason for decun
ing. Joe Jeannette is probably the least ap
preciated pugilist in the ring today, con
sidering his merits. Although his real
worth is well recognized by close follow
ers of boxing, the majority of those only
casually interested in the ring fail to
appreciate his ability to the full ex
tent. Of all the men who covet John
son's title none looks to have a better
chance of defeating the champion than
the Hoboken negro. Johnson himself Is
well aware of this and studiously avoids
mentioning Jeannette's name when dis
cussing future matches. Another good
point about Jeannette Is that he always
tries to win as decisively as possible
Instead of saving his opponents up for
another match. And opponents are
mighty scarce and hard to find.
Jeannette returned from a trip to
Paris and England about a week or
so ago. He was forced to go abroad
because he could find no more heavy
weights who would risk a meeting with
him. On the other side he nad no bet
ter success, for none of Europe's big
men were feeling belllgerant when
Jeannette hove in sight He did man
age to get a match at Plymouth, Eng
land, and Glasgow. Scotland, but In
each place his opponent was of no
standing. He knocked them both out
easily. Jeannette is a superbly built
athlete. He does not tend to take on
lat and is always as hard as a marble
statue, even when out of training. When
in perfect condition it Is wortu the price
of admission merely to watc.i the play
of his muscles as he nuves about the
ring. He can absorb punishment even
more amazingly than he deals It out.
One of his favorite, tricks when feeling
in a humorous mood is to drop his hands
and allow his opponent to swing both
hands on his stomach. In attack he. is
lightning fast His left jabs shoot to
the mark with speed that would be envied
by a featherweight. His right crosses
and uppercuts are only surpassed by
those of Sam Langford. Jeannette is par
ticularly anxious to meet Langford in a
twenty-round bout', but the Boston negro
evidently prefers the easier game In Aus-
tralla. Twice Sam has found a way out
of matches with Jeannette in California
by making himself scarce when flghi
time came around.
Jeannette Is, of course, delighted at
the prospect of meeting Johnson in the
fall,, but he says he has his doubts
whether Johnson will sign articles. In
the meanwhile he would like to keep his
hand in by taking on all comers.

Wichita has purchased Pitcher Levi
Knapp, who was with Lincoln last year
and was traded to Des Moines In the

BRITISH SERVICES CHANGING
Influence of American Tennis Ex

RETURN MADE TO OLD STYLE
French Players Who Learned Their
Strokes at Hands of Sneh Men as
Doaerty and Mahoney Are '
Bring- Copied. .
NEW YORK, June .-The services at
the moment in lawn tennis in England
undergoing a noteworthy evolution.
The influence of Brooks and of Ameri
cans like Holoombe Ward, so arked
three or four years ago, Is spending Its
force. A study of the Frenchmen, De
cugls and Gobert. both of whom serve
like the late H. S. Mahoney. has Initiated
a renaissance, me leaiurs w . -

pieference for the deeply pitched service
of varied and calculated direction. Eveii
Brooks, himself, one of the pioneers ol
the new style, Is reverting to the oli
style, and while retaining the American
and reverse services, now employs morv.
speed and less break. The influence of
contemporary champions on the game has
always been powerful, and to the student
of evolution this return to the methods of
the old English school through an agencv
of French players, who learned thei'i
strokes at the hands of men like Dohert.t
and Mahoney, Is at once Interesting and
t-uggestlve.
Dependent Development.
All this, however, does not mean that
tha "new" style will be entirely ellmin
ated. Every phase through which lawn
tennis passes must benefit the next
stage. An Illustration of this dependent
development g forthcoming In the case
of C. P. Dixon. At an age when most
players have grooved their style beyond
change Mr. Dixon has grafted onto his
old game many of the strokes which
America and the colonies have exploited
with success. From this country ho took
back the break service and that desire
to attack at closer range, which, put
into practice, has proved of incalculable
value.
Yet Mr. Dixon, on adding to his armory
of weapons, has not It seems discarded
or forgotten how to use those baseline
strokes which he learned in early life.
Nor, In volleying, does he come as far
forward as Brookes or the Americans.
His position is that adopted by the Do
hertys, by Mahony, and by Pirn. It In
vites less fatigue than the rlght-in posi
tion, and it has the virtue of protecting
the head from a succession of lobs.
ainst orthodox English driving, such
oh Mr. Ritchie and the Germans employ.
Mr." Dixon has found, as the Dohert
found, that baseline excellence, com
blned with a cautious advance, will suf
fice. A Progressive School.
The French players trained In a most
aggressive school, where the pace of
the service requires the strlker-'out to
stand well behind the base line, come
further In, and It Is. here that Dixon,
unlike Doherty (who retired before the
Frenchmen asserted themselves), mav
find his difficulty. For, unless a man
j who makes volleying his forte can volley
In games when he receives the service,
as well as In games when he delivers it,
his chances of victory are 'materially
weakened.
The great virtue of Gobert's game is
that he makes every stroke from a po
sition which, from a strategical view
point. Is above criticism. Dixon has' the
instinctive genius when enables him. to
survive sudden ' emergencies and to ig
nore ordinary canons.
