(From & Staff .Correependent.) DES MOIN&I, !., April lB.-(Speelal.) Johnny Oondlng and hit charge of eighteen athlete arrived In this village at a late hour tonight rrady to enter tho fray tomorrow afternoon with Mr. Is-bell- hopefuls. Jf Des Moines oxpecls to win they'll have to hustte, for the Rourkes are not going to oJUow courtesy in any way Jeopardizing their chance for a victory. Tomorrow la to be ome opening day, according to the farm In this fair city. .All tho fans were up and going and pre paring for a big celebration. Contrary to the usual custom no parade will pre cede th' battle. Instead tho parade and hip-hurrah stuff !a to be pulled In the evening after thJ game. Undoubtedly a victory would accentuate the chances for success of auch a program, but If the Rourkca. eol the lonff end of tho score It only stands to reason that Oie ardor of tho Booster fans will be materially damp ened. . But even at that there U to be doings at the park. The entire grandstand Is sold out. According to expert advice' this happens yearly In Des Moines.' After that it Is an easy matter to linn room in tho copious stands. The mayor will chuck the first ball. He Is nlso to make a speech that no one will be able to hear. And a band will toot occasionally and tho peanut venders will double their ranks for the occasion. Thus It Is to be a regular opening In some respects oven thovgh the parade comes afterward Booster Club on Hand. One remarkable thing about the opening is that a Boosters' club has been organ lsed. This club Is over 1.000 strong. All have guaranteed to lend their efforts toward a successful parade and celebra tion. They will oecuro the machines for the parade. Johnny Oondlng has announced that Lester Stevenson will dish up tho opening ourves. Mr. Stevenson, be It remembered, is the gent who became famous for whif fing the redoubtable llonus Wagner. Klnsella Is Isbell's choice for Des Moines, although he may shoot Uifferty In at the lr.st moment. But. according to Oon dlng it matters not Omaha Is going to win, Omaha's brave contenders present a formidable front.- Every position Is nicely occupied, although there are two regulars In addition to several pitchers who are In punk condition. Shestak will be un able to work because of his bum foot, but Willie Lee Crosby promlr.es that he will da all that Shestak could do and a little better, tJoe Ward may not play third. Ward Is La'inr, Ward throwing arm has gone back on him again. He has been having trouble with the refractory arm for two seasons now. but Ir- expects the heat will thaw '.t out. In case Ward Is absent BUI Sehlpkr will oeeupy the third corner. While perhaps Skip Is not so nifty with the war club, It Is ono sure cinch those large, ponderous hands of his will grasp anything that conies In his direction. Brenner and Ormsby are still suffering from sore salary whips, hut are rapidly rounding Into shape. While crippled slightly the Omaha squad still looks pretty good," . and tho Boosters will be compelled to show their best to cop. Norrls O'Neill, president of this circuit, Is hare. Tip conferred with his umpires today, and they all have their final 'In structions. Tip will watch the contest here.
