After marking up a 1 to 0 victory
in a nifty hurling duel between Prince
Uaskell ami Honolulu John Williams
in the first game, the Kourkes aviated
in the second contest and split the
kit-gain matinee with t lie Josies by
(Iroppping the finale. 9 to 7. As the
I opeka were walloped by Holmes'
en , the blooming Links gained half
a Kunie on us.
I he first section of the double
; ent was a corker. Haskell and William.-
staged one swell pitchers' battle
which was enlivened by enough thrills
to provide excitement for the most
blood-thirty fan in the county.
Kay Miller won the game for
Gaskell. Ray poled a home run drive
over the right field wall in the second
tanza and the prince marte that lone
tally a sufficiency by refusing to per
mit any of the enemy to scramble
over the plate.
Pass Up Chances.
Twice the Kourkes had additional
chances to score, but passed them
both up. Once they had three on with
one out. but Smith and Krug weren't
equal to the occasion and once th.cy
had a man on second and third with
two out. but Smith flunked again.
The Drummers tried to start a
rally in the ninth, but the prince
clu'cke it. Hits by Kirkham and Mc
( lelland and Kilduff's error put three
men on the runway with one down,
but Fusner filed to Forsythe and
Kirkham tarried on the bag. fearing
to take a chance on Forsytlie's throw
which proved perfect. Then Sniper
Soimners rolled to Krug.
Ciaskell's shutout made twentv-nine
consecutive innings for the Drummers
without a score. Thursday Pepper
CTark shut them out at Sioux I'itv,
Friday (."ceil Thompson blanked them
here and yesterday (iaskcll turned the
trick. They also failed to score dur
ing the eighth or ninth at Sioux City
Wednesday.
Light on North.
So the Josies decided enough was
rough. And when Lou North faced
them to start the second came vester-
day, they landed. And what thev
didu t do to Ivoih woasn t worth do
ing. Eventually they drove him to
cover.
Wright started the festivities by
smacking a single to left and McCabe
put on to center. An error on Jour
dan's sacrifice filled the sacks and Kid
Kirkham swept all before him with a
double to center.
That started it. It gave the Josies
heart and they kept up the attack
through the rest of the game. North
faded from view in the fifth.
A rookie named Rohrer was on the
mound for the Drummers. How Mr.
Rohrer got away is a mystery. He is
one of these kids who curves every
thing and tries to throw them by. The
Rourkes made fifteen hits, one more
than the opposition, but for some rea
son or other, they couldn't score runs.
Cy Hits Homer.
In the fourth innine Cv Forsvthe
kied one over the right field fence
for a home run and in the seventh hits
by Krausc and Thompson followed by
.Miller's double scored two more. That
was all until the ninth.
Then the Kourkes tried to rally.
But it's a tough job to rally six runs
together in one spasm. The Rourkes
fell short two markers.
I-.arl Smith 9tarted the doin trs bv
smacking a double down the first base
line, Earl's only hit of the day. Marty
,u.fe puicu one inrougu second.
Thompson combed one into right,
scoring Smith and sending Marty to
third from which sack he scored on
Millers sacrifice flv. Krueirer's dou
ble sent Thompson to third and
Koiirer sent out the S. (J. S. for help.
Mr. Summers came to the rescue and
Forsythe hit a safety over second on
Sommers. The hit scored Thompson
and sent Krueger to third. Ernie
then scored on a wild pitch. But the
rally ended i. moment later when
Kewpie Kilduff popped up and Joe
Burg whiffed on a had one.
The Kourkes and Drummers will
continue hostilities this afternoon
with another double-header. The first
game will start at 2 o'clock.

Of tiie thirteen famous horses en

The five days' meeting will be held
at the Fast Omaha Speedway track,
acknowledged by the leading lights

best conditioned half-mile oval be

tune, is at its best now.
Track in Ideal Condition.
Truly, the fate- have been kind to
Omaha in the matter of a track fur
its Great Western Circuit premiei
The oval is absolutely free from bad
spots of any kind, is as s.'.tooth as
the proverbial billiard table and has
just that proper amount of "step"
so essential to the track of record
breaking propensities. It is" the sort
of a track that makes the veteran
reinman's eyes light up with pleas
lire, and the "railbirds" to whisper to
their clocks a little softer as the step
pers near the wire on their "down the
home."
"Tiie greatest year in the history of
the sport," is the horse world's unani
mous verdict of the racing season
thus far. On the Grand and Great
Western Circuits records came clat
tering down at the diiferent meetings.
Expect Records to Co.
Last week at Davenport, la., for

most spectacular harness racing that
has ever been staged on a half-mile
course. With ii faster track, a great
many more entries, and larger purses,
the Iowa meeting will be eclipsed by
far, or the conservative "handler" of
this column will miss a guess by a
long, long way.
The meeting, of course, will be con
ducted under the rules of the Ameri
can Trotting association. The three
beat system, every heat a race, will
be followed.
In the $.'.000 purses, $600 will be
hung up for each heat, with $200 to
