While 1,600 shlverln fans, wrapped In
lone ulster, horse blankets, automobile
robes anil other apparel equally appropri
ate for an expedition' to the north polo,
quivered -before the sharp north wind,
elxteen regular Pittsburgh rlratc ma.
llciously treaded on I'a Kourke's hopefuls
Just for spite because hoy wero com
pelled to play ln(the frhsld rather. Be
fore tha score had ended the Mr leaguers
had made thirteen runs while Omaha,
outd ini but three.
Clarke trotted' his regular lineup out
at the first of the Kamo. so that Omaha
farm could look over the symmetrical
figures of the athletes. After he felt that
every line of his athletes had been vlotfcd
he ran his Yanlgans for approval.
Whether their conduct on tho field was
approved or not, they won the game for
the Pirate.
When tho regulars departed for tho pro
tection of tho high north fence the score
vias ii tie, but tho Yatts put on a burst
of speed and galloped home with tho vic
tory, The Omaha athlete made utmost na
many hits as Pittsburgh. Omaha grabbed
ten safeties and Pittsburgh thirteen, but
the Pirates' hits wero long ones and
mixed up with bases on balls and errors,
netted the scores which count. Tho rlr-
alto fingers wero morft accustomed to tho
cold than the Omaha' fingers and they
stuck to the ball. Any crrof mado In the
game was excusable because of the
bad weather, which would numb tho
lingers of a wooden Indian.
Home (ioiid Fielding.
That the Pirates did not make more
runs can bo attributed to the fielding of
Thomas and Wallace. The shortstop
grabbed everything which camo his way
and alammed tlie ball over tho first In
plenty of time to nail the fleet Pirates.
Wallace scrambled all over second and In
tho fourth knocked down what looked
like a nu re hit by Carey, lie ran over by
first, picked the pill oft the ground and
clammed Carey, the beat base stealer In
tho National league, out by three fect.
In the sixth Duffy sent a fly over by
tho foul lino back of first, which (tfn
galton nor Chose could reach, but Wal
lace tore over and made a regular George
Graham catch. Thomas also contributed
a two-bagger and Wallace a single. Krug
and Ward also entered tho hero column,
but their part was, their hitting. Krug
voaKca out n two-oagger which netted a
run, and rambled ucroas for tha other
two runs himself. Ward propelled Krug
homo twice, onco on a two-bagger and
once on a tingle.

more than anything ele was Wagner's
conduct at the plate In the Initial round.
With two down and Max Carey perched
on third, Ilonua waddled up to tho pinto
and swung his war club In a ferocious
altitude. Stevenson delivered three beauts
and the Flying Dutchman whiffed the nlr
for a. strikeout. His next time up he
managed to register a acratch single, but
foil by the wayside with a flyout to Krug
on hlri third trip up,
Joo Kelly, the former Bt. Joseph's boy,
was a might factor In the victory. Joo
made but two hits and four runs. Some'
count for a recruit. Ham Hyatt, who
took Konetchy's place at first, made
throe hits out of three times up and two
wero good for two bases.

Pittsburgh, U tho son of a millionaire In

considering the wretched weather. Duffy,
who followed him, did not do so well,
but pitched very well, everything taken
Into consideration.
Stevenson, Closfnan and Ormsby did tho
work for Omaha. Closman had the worst
luck In tho eighth inning. Seven acores
wero counted against him. when four-hits

AUTO RACE TRACK IN OMAHA
W. H. Green Sees No Reason Why it
Would Not Pay City.
PEOPLE ARE NOT CO-OPERATIVE
After 1'onr Month' VUlt on Pacific
Coat Local Itrnl Ketnte Man
So Deplore the Local
Condition.
An automobile speedway and racea In
Omaha are future possibilities, according
to W. II. Oreen, real estate man, who
Just toturncd from a four months' trip
through California ami tho southwest.
Oreen spoke before the Ileal Kstato ex
change Ho saw the big automobile races
at los Angelea and got so enthusiastic
that he declares there was no reason on
earth why Omaha could not have a aim-
'liar series of races. He declared It was
a great thing for a city, as It brought In
llcity It gave the city was worth thou
tens of thousands of people and the pub-
eantls of dollars, even It there were no
other profit. He has laid tho matter bo
fore the Omaha Auto club, and says the
Idea Is growing.
Oreen told the real estate men that
Omaha peoplo were not pulling together
well enough, and that Omaha waa not
getting enough publicity. "All winter."
ho said, "I used to get up every morn
ing and look nt tho papers to find how
tho weather was In Omatfn. 1 used to look
and look over the pages and find no
Omaha. Onco In a while I would find a,
weather report from Valentine, and then,
again, maybe from North Platte, but not
from Omaha.
Not on the Mnp.
"The trouble Is gentlemen, we ain't on
tho mop, and It's our own fault."
Also the speaker said he found all tho
men In Los Angeles boosting for tho
town. No matter what ono man told you
there about the merits of his town, the
rest of them" would all swear to It. Not
so In Omaha, he declared. Ho told or
the great prices paid for real estate In
Los Angeles and said Omaha property
was, too cheap.
Ho could not keep off tho subject of
Farnam street property, which haa occu
plod the minds of all Omaha business
men slnco tho sale of the Noonen prop
crty for J100.100 at Twenty-fourth and
Farnam streets.
jiui 1 11 net a nunared dollars to a
nickel and loan you tho nickel," ho
shouted, "that Harney street property
will bo worth more than Farnam street
In twenty years. Why Becauso It has a
chance to 'develop along proper lines,
whllo on Farnam street you have a lot
of old shacks that you can't set rid of In
tho next fifty years."
Mr. Oreen again touched on the pos
sibility of building a bridge across tho
rlvor at Florence, to open a lot of terri
tory that would bring tho leal estate
men of Omaha 1106,000 In commissions.
