STONE FULLED IN THE FIRST New Pltclier Give War o Apple gnie Omaha's Two Scores Made In Ninth Innlntr, TrltH One Alan Out. - DES MOINES, la., July 24. (Special Telegram.) A wild peg to first base In tho ninth Inning spoiled a whitewash for Pitcher MuBser against Omaha In the first game of the scries and tho first game for the new pitcher on the home diamond. Musser allowed but foiir hits until the. ninth inning and was pitching airtight ball. Schlpke singled and when Hicks rolled a slow one to Musser the ex-Washlng-ton star became nervous and pegged high over first, allowing Schlpke to score. Hicks scored when Justice sacrificed. An assortment of Rourke twlrlers con sisting of Stone, Hicks and Applcgatc, were hit at will by the local lads. Stone was piilled out before the first Inning was fairly begun. Applogate did a little better, but three scores each inning were taken in the first three chapters, and two again were hung up in the fifth. Hicks was sent in in the seventh and held tho Boosters hltlecss. for two in nings. Rourke fielders were fast on their feet and corraled some almost Impossible ones. Bill Rourke in his shirt sleeves directed' the game from the bench.

MOORE AND ROONEY WRESTLE FOR FUN An impromptu sporting event that not even the local sporting editors couia an. tlclpato entertained a huge crowd of night owls in front of a Douglas street restaurant early this morning. Then some one turned In a riot call to police headquarers and Charley Moore and Pete Rooney, two well known Third ward saloon keepers were carted off to Jail on the preposterous oliarge of drunkenness. When tho patrol wagon camo, Charley Moore was lying on his hack and wiping the sidewalk with the remnants of a $40 suit, while several thousand dollars worth of diamond Jewelry which he always wears was scattered about tho street. Rooney was sitting on Moore's neck, un concernedly picking tho remains of c chicken sandwich from his teeth. County Commissioner Johnnie Lynch happened along and acted as referee un til lie saw the wagon a block away, and then he remembered his official posi tion and scampered" for a back alley. United States Secret Service Agent Hughey Mills was there, too, but he kept his eyes peeled for Moore's diamonds. At headquarters both Moore and Rooney agreed that thoy were wrestling for "fun." They said that thoy had been to the races at Fremont in the after noon, and on the rvuy back, they got Into an argument about wrestling. When they got out ot Moore's auto In front ot the Douglas street restaurant, they staged the wrestling match, and Rooney had Just won the first fall WTien the patrol came. Both men were released on bond a few minutes after their arrest. A Viper in the Hioinaeh Is dyspepsia, complicated with liver and kidney troubles. Electric Bitters help all suoh cases or no pay.
