Judgments JUST a few words about a few boys who have graduated In the lost few years from the Rourke farnllyi The St. Loui. Itopubllc, In Its story' of a recent same between the Browns and Athletics, thus exploit and extols the fleet-footed Austin: Jlmnir Austin Is the only Brownlo who succeeded in stealing- a sack on "ChlrtK" Schang. Austin's run-getting: stunt In the Bocond illustrates the luck of the fame, Jimmy circulated the diamond on Is nerve. He started off by sticking;-up Bhawkey for a free pass to first Next he stole second and took third on a play that electrified the fans. Alexandet rolled to Baker. As soon as Baker heaved the ball to first Austin hiked for third Molnnls made & low throw to Baker and the boll slid through the third, sacker Austin completed the circuit of the sacks by another daring: play. Lavan tapped to Shawkey. who tossed to first As Boon as he turned the boll loose Austin sailed home. Mclnnls made a wide heave, to the plate and the runner was safe. It was practically a triple steal And the some paper the same day re feriinff to the same game, relates a few words of our old friend. Qui Williams, a natlyo son and former tight gardener of Omaha, thUsly: Baker at the bat Baker tried to put the ball over the right wait He" drove It against the fence, scoring throe men, but nitty fielding on thr. part of Wil liams held' batter at first It sure was some drive and the funny part of It li Baker only got a single. WhyT Because they have all learned to respect "Gloomy Gla" Williams' left whip Qua made Connie Mack's men sit up and take notloe of his wonderful throwing whip Sunday when he flagged "Stuffy Mclnnls at the plate on a throw from the fence.' The ball sailed Into Agne waist high. It was the champion peg ol the .season' at Sportsman's park. Arid this ifrom the Minneapolis Journal on Nleho.ff, who IS batting above .800. Healing bices by the flock and setting the American association on fire with his 'fielding Bert Nlehoff, who came to the Colonels unknown and unsung from the Western league, was the fielding Samson of the contest Two beautiful one-handed stops were chalked up to his credit The first one was negotiated in the first Inning when Williams drove a hot one. In his direction that was bound for safe terri tory, Nienon lungea ai me uyins oyiicro gathered it with one hand and made a perfect peg to the bag. The same stun! was repeated In the third Inning with Itossman the victim. Of course, the Journal Is wrong; Nlehoff may have gone to Louisville unsung, but he was not unknown. He. had had several years of phenomenal success In the West ern league, had gone tq Pittsburgh, but, was not given a change anji was quite well known as the peer of third basemen In the minors. We miss our guess If he doesn't go to the big ones next season. Bo far as Omaha Is concerned. It has sent Its share of them up. The St Louis Brown now have Shotten, Austin, Wil liams and Agnew, all of whom are starr ing and Williams and Austin went di rectly Into the big leagues from here. They are two of the most talked-of American leaguers. Tho powers that be have caused to be circulated the old story that the majors are. planning to head off the Federal outlaws by placing good teams in every city Invaded by the latter. They can't make the bluff stick. In ur Judgment But If they did. It would only open up the situation lust as the Federals are trying to do. It a Idle to try to resist develop ment In base bait Another big league! will come, as It Is coming gradually, when condition are ripe. Omaha cannot help feeling a lively Interest In all sUch. move ments. We stand In a strategio position, here on tho eastern boundary of the Western circuit a Bood ball town for good ball, craving larger company, with a fine record In such company In years gone by. We are sought by the Federals. Put Omaha In a league with clUes Buch .a r-hleairo. Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Indian apolis, Kansas City. St Louis and Bee what haDoens. Tou will una crowus, such as used to flock to the old park when we had a Western league composed of Denver. Omaha, Wllwaukee, Bt. Jraui, Kansas City and tho like. Better players. better ballT Yes, to " W6 Does this read familiarly to yon: Three-fingered Brown went into the pitcher's box in the final Inning of each came when Cincinnati seemed In danger Ind both times stopped the Boston rallies. That is from a report of a double- header which the old "ready rescuer," whom the urbane and astute, also deb. onalr Mr. Murphy tried to send to the brushoa, won for the Beds. Joe Tinker knew a thing or two when ho refused to waive on his old Cub mate. Brown iraa wprked like a dray horse by Murphy and when his bad year came, as come they do to every Brown or Walsh or Mathewaon In turn, the man Murphy thanked him for hie sterling services by telling, him to beat It to the minors. Brown has pitched In some twenty games this year, with many to his credit at victories for the tall-end team and his deepest gob of Joy came, when ho shut ut the ex-Cubs. Pa Rourke seems to have put the gin ger in the team all right but all of Pa's Id cunning and he baa his share of It cannot take the plaoe of pitchers. Bend somebody to the relief of Robinson and Closman and the trick is turned. It's a treat team to waste on a lack of pitchers. Jim Kane.

Tho main attraction on the bill of fare for today will be tho clash between the Store Triumphs and the Union Otants that hall from Chicago. They Just whlzred In from Iowa yesterday where they made a clean sweep of every herd that they collided with. They have a congregation of colored base ball ma nipulators that know the game and can play It to perfection. Pick Bauchman, one of the local flowers, will be seen with the Union Giants. The Btors Tri umphs will UaVe all their regulars In tho lineup today, so a struggle worth the change Is anticipated.

Out on the turf at Luxua park a pair of dandy wrangles are looked for this afternoon when the Chris Lycks hump up against the Athletics, and the Ltpcua aggregation will do their darnedest to whip the much touted Ancient Order of united workmen congregation. Lately the Athletics have been picking Up con siderable dust and as they-don't Intend to naye tneir remarkable record punptured, the' Chris Lycks will have to step some if they want to amble home with the sweet meats. This will be the last game tho Luxus squad will play In Omaha until their trip from Omaha to Denver Is com- yieieu. xne Ancient Order of United Workmen boys haven't lost a game for so long that they don't know how, so the brewery chaps are up against a starchy proposition.

The Advos will grab an iron boy labeled for Plattsmouth, Neb., where they will endeavor to demonstrate to the fiome talent Just now the grand old game should be played. For the small amount of fifty rollers the Emit Hansena and th. Stars and Stripes will do their best to trim oach other this! afternoon.

They don't need long blngles to bring them across the coveted goal. Lost Sunday against Missouri Valloy the Btorz Triumphs did not show any of their pepper, aggressiveness or ambition.

A review of tha present flstlo situation bring, out tha fact that tha only big matohes possible Just now aro between boxers m tha light weight division. All tha other clonics or. In a state of quiescence, but among th. llghtwelsht. there are .evora.1 big at tractions possible. Fortunately, Champion Ritchie baa an nounced that ha means to change hl ways. Instead of withdrawing tha title from competition for long period, he says' he mean, to keep active In the future, defending his honor, a. ofton as the pro moter, will furnish a purso worth striv ing for. Rltchlo reached this decision after coming to tho conclusion that thoro la far moro money to bo mode out of fighting than stage work. With the champion In a fighting mood thoro only remains tho question of Be-' looting tho next opponent for htm. The sentiment out in California, where tha bout will most likely take place, seems to bo In favor of Freddie Welsh, the English champion. Ritchie himself, im bued with confldenco by his recent vic tory over Joe Rivers, Is anxious to wipe out tha memory of tha decision that - Welsh holds. A victory over Welsh "would mako Ritchie champion of tha world, whereas ho would gain no furthor honors by defeating his American rivals,. All Will Have Okaaoe. However, If Ritchie Is sincere in his war like declaration,. Cross, Brlttoo, Murphy on'd tha rest of them will get their chanc beforo another year rolls around, pro vided Ritchie does not stumbta over the Welsh obstacle. In meeting the clever Bngllshmon Rltchlo will encounter the most sclentlflo fighter of his ohallongers. The fact that Ritchie is willing to tackle Welsh first speaks well for hit confldenco in himself, Welsh has but ono real block mark against him a decision lost to Matt Wells. Kven. Paokey MoFar land could do littlo with Welsh.. Al though tha Chlcagoi wizard got on. doubtful' verdict out of three meetings, McFarland has littlo to .boast ot as a suit of his encounter, with Welsh. No other llghtwelsht has been abl. to stand off McFarland, and on this figuring Welsh must be given credit for being tha most sclentlflo boxer who is able to mako the lightweight limit Ha should b. an even money bet against Ritchie. Brltton Hank. Next, In point of cleverness and on hi. rec ord In general Jack Brltton ranks next In the list of Ritchie's possible opponents. But Brltton has already boen beaten by Rltoht. and of Ute bis work has not been Impressive. Th. best h. could ex pect would be a oloso decision on points. He should bo on the short end at about 10 to fl. . Leach .dross ranks third and op , ac count of his ring cunning and terrific hitting he should be able to furnish a more interesting struggle than either of th. two light hitters wh.Ot pr.ced. hlnij If Cross won It would be by a knockout, which many believe Is the only way a champlqnihlp should change hands. As Cross does not show up well against a clever boxer ha does not figure better than 1 to 2, but he ought to make thing, decidedly unpleasant for Ritchie as long as he lasts, Tommy Murphy Is being mentioned as a candidate, but it Is hard to see when he would have a chance worth consider Ing. Murphy ha., been beaten by most ot New York's second raters, Including IC O. Brown, before whom, ha went down in one round. Beautifully Designed and Tailored To Perfection HESTERF!
