Bringing Up NORTH PITCHES A SEC0NDSHUT0DT Pa's New Hurler Heaves Second Game with the Rourkelets and Wins 1 to 0. ALLOWS BUT THREE SINGLES In a gam which, despite the muddy field upon which It was played, wit a decidedly brilliant nffalr, Omaha beat Denver Wednesday afternoon In the ninth inning by a score of 1 to 0. North, a new man for the RourVes, pitched bis second contest, and his second victory for the home club was a shutout. At all periods he held the Bears safe, the entire outfit gafierlug but three sin gles, and not a man reaching third base. Harrington for the enemy also hurled a treditable game, keeping Omaha well In hand until the last stama. In this inning Krueger singled nnd ad anced to third on Krug's sacrifice out. Yhomason then brought in the merchan dise with a neat single to right and the thing was over. Game Delayed by Rain. Both teams played errorless ball and executed a pair of double plays each. Although a half-hour delay was occa sioned at the opening, because of wet grounds, the game was over before 6 o'clock, taking Just one hour and twenty minutes. Umpire Van Sickle performed exceed ingly well and was not barked at once by either side. In fact, a more cleanly bit of adjudication has not been seen at Rourke park this year. This afternoon a double-header will be ke menu,' the first -gam starting at 2 o'clock sharp. As an additional feature Mr. Rourke has negotiated with the South Dakota Elks' band of twenty-nine pieces and they will furnish harmony through out the afternoon for the crowd. The band Is en route to Ban Francisco. Score: DENVER. AB. R. H. O. A. E. Spencer, cf. 4 0 0 8 0 0 Miller, rf 4 0 0 1 0 0 McCormlck.
