WIN
Leaguers Capture Opening
Fray of Season From Bran
deis, 4 to 3.
WOODRUFF'S BAT BOTHERS
A couple of hundred brave and dar
ing fans giggled derisively in the face
of pneumonia yesterday afternoon to
give Pa Rourkes' 1917 hopefuls the
visual forward and back when they
made their first appearance of the sea
son in a nine-round tangle wtih Fred
Bradford's Brandeis pets. The
leaguers escaped wjth the combat 4
to i and the bugs were satisfied even
though half frozen.
Krug's hirelings sneaked over the
victory because Eddie Hazen. con
verted from an outfielder into a
hurler, got away to a bad start in the
first two spasms, . lhe Kourkes as
sembled two runs in each frame which
gave them enough to capture the Sab
bath pastime by the one-run margin.
Hazen couldn't locate the plate for
Joe Burg, the hrst man to tace him m
the opening stanza, and Burg drew a
pass to first. Marty Krug sacrificed
him to sejnd after which Shag
Thompson straighened one of Eddie's
curves into a three-base blow into left
center which sent Burg galloping
Home. Uak Henning slammed a hot
one through the box. Hazen stopped
it enough for George Graham to
scoop it up and throw Henning out,
but Thompson came home on the
play
Graham Makes Boot.
Hazen smeared Hal Brokaw in the
slats to open the second stanza. Irelan
sacrificed and Brottem flew out to
Lawler. But Graham made a two
base wild heave after fielding Carrie's
grounder. Brokaw scooted home on
the play and Currie romped to sec
ond before Clink Claire could recover
the pill. Krug sailed a double into
left scoring Currie.
That ended the counting for the
Rourkes. Hazen refused to permit
anv more scoring in the next two
rounds and Morrie Olson, who took;
tip the hurling job in the nttn, man t
allow a run and only permitted one
hit in the four innings he worked.
Murphy Currie started the game for
Omaha. He performed in fine fashion.
Claire made a two-bagger to right
which Cy Forsythe almost reached
and he scored on Woodruff's single to
center. This was the only run and
the only hits Currie allowed in three
innings. He whiffed four men.
No Hits Off Men.
Otto Mcrz pitched the subsequent
three frames and had the Brandeis
helpless. He retired the semi-pros
three in a row in each inning.
Wayne Barham, hurling the last
three innings, found the going rough.
In the seventh he was nicked for two
hits and as many runs. Graham
walked to start the frame and Lawler
singled to right. Synek flew out to
Thompson and Novitsky whiffed, but
Woodruff reefed a triple into left,
scoring Graham and Lawler.
Two hits and a walk filled the bases
on Barham in the ninth, but he pulled
out of the hole, but forcing Pete Lyck
to fly out to left.
The Rourkes played a nifty fielding
game, making nary an error. Their
hitting was nothing to brag about, but
.it's early yet and the play yesterday
was unusually good considering the
early date. Score:
OMAHA. BRANDEIS.

Robbers Tell Him to Halt;
Runs Clear to Police Station
Sam Sorenson, farmer, of Fort
Dodge, la., didn't stop when four men
ordered him to throw up his hands.
Instead the fleet-footed farmer ran
just as fast as he could and didn't
stop until he reached the police sta
tion. There he reported that he was
walking by ;the alley opposite Jef
ferson park. Fifteenth and Chicago
streets, when the four men accosted
him. He couldn't give a very good
description of the robbers, he said,
because he didn't stop long enough
to take a good look at them.

Recruiting Records.
Made Here by Both
Army and Navy Men
Saturday night closed March re
cruiting for the army and navy, with
new local monthly records established
for both branches of the regular serv
ice. Neither had ever before in the
history of the Omaha district enlisted
so many men in a single month.
Sixty-six men had been actually
sent out in March by the navy re
cruiters. Thirty of them were se
cured during the last week. In addi
tion a score of reserve men and "hold
overs," waiting till Monday to leave,
in order to say good-bye to relatives
over Sunday, gives the grand total of
fifty credited to the navy as enlisted
since the call to the colors.
In the army, 285 men were enlisted
through the Omaha district, with
headquarters here. Promotions, with
increased pay, will .be given fifteen
privates and several corporals recruit
ing here in recognition of their splen
did work.
Captain McKinley and Sergeant
Hansen of the armv and Lieutenant
Waddell and his assistants of the
navy station were exultant Saturday
nignt over their tine showings.
Lieutenant Commander E. S. Root,
district inspector of naval recruiting
stations, was in Omaha Saturday from
Kansas City and congratulated Lieu
tenant Waddell and his staff upon
their showing.
In army recruiting, Corporals Lee
R. G. Ward and Matthew Jones made
a little record of their own last week.
They conducted a canvassing party
at Clarinda, la., and vicinity and se
cured twelve enlistments. That is
the best week's work ever done in
this district, says Sergeant Hansen.

Dynamite Plot In
K. C. is Exploded
Kansas City, Mo., April 1.
The bomb plot suspected here last
night when a box of dynamite was
found under the Rock Island
bridge over the Kansas river, was
dissipated with the visit of a bridge
superintendent to police headquar
ters today. '
"We have a powder house near
the river," he said.. "Last night,
the water was coming up and the
night watchman became afraid the
dynamite might get wet. So he
carried it under the bridge and left
it there."
Two suspected plotters will be
released.
Steoher Is Training for
Caddock at Dodge Home
Fremont, Neb.; April 1. (Special.)
Joe Stecher, who returned recently
from a trip to California, is training
at his home in Dodge for the go with
Caddock at Omaha, April 9. Stecher
says he was never in bettc. condition
and will go on the mat prepared to
make short work of the lowan. The
report that Frank Gotch is training
Caddock seems to be causing Stecher
but little worry. "I will be a trifle
heavier than I have ever been before
when I step on the mat", the sojourn
in California having added about
four pounds to my weight,!' Joe said.
"But that will be a help to me. I
know Caddock is a fast man, but I
am confident that I will beat him in
a short time if he gets in and
wrestles." Stecher is being groomed
by Brother Anton. &
Stecher says an effort to get him
to sign for a match with Lewis in
San Francisco has been made by Pro
moter Schuler of tha: place. "I will
meet Lewis in Omaha or no place
because I think that I owe it to the
fans to stand out for the match where
we went to a draw nearly two years
ago." '

Not Anxious for War
Washington, April 1. (Special
Telegram.) Speaking of the war
spirit in his section, Congressman
Sloan said today that it was was not
predominant, but that his constituents
would be found giving a good account
of themselves if war should come.
"The people whom I represent do
not desire war. I rather think a
goodly number of them look upon the
present conditions as wholly unwar
ranted. Personally I shall support
the president in whatever he desires
the congress to do along lines of tell
ing Germany where we stand as a
great nation."
Mr. Sloan was accompanied to
Washington by his daughter, Miss
Edith Sloan, and his secretary, Mr.

FIVE AMERICANS
ROYERWTIYES
Survivori Tell of Adventurous
Crowe as Prisoners of
German Raider.
CUVBH OOOD TREATMENT
Rio Janeiro, April t. Five Amer
ican citizens were among the 285
prisoners captured by a new Ger
man raider off the eleven ships it
sank in the Atlantic. The raider is
the vessel Seeadler of about 2,800
tons. It is a three-masted, square
rigged ship with a speed of twelve
knots. It carries a powerful wire
less plant
News of the raider was brought
here by the French bark Cambronne,
which had on board the crews of the
ships sunk by the raider.
When it left Germany its guns were
concealed in the hold, while it was
running the British blockade. The
Seeadler has two gasoline launches
which also were hidden in the hold
during the first part of the voyage.
Gives Each Certificate.
After the Seeadler was on the high
seas its guns were mounted. They
were placed on the forecastle and the
gun ports were maskcej.
The raider's commander presented
to the captain of each ship he sank
an engraved certificate setting forth
the circumstances under which the
vessel was destroyed.
The names of the American citizens
from the crews of sunken vessels
brought by the Cambronne, so far as
is known, are as follows:
, Roy Clark of Virginia, from th British
sailing vessel, British Teoman.
John Rondonl of California, from the
British Teoman.
Luther Leaflets of Ohio, from the British
sailing vessel Plnmore,
Ernest Rsy Gilbert of Washington, from
ths Plnmore.
Manuel Ouerrero of Manila (no ship
given).
Life passed pleasantly on board the
raider, the released men report. The
sailors had a band which played fre
quently and enthusiastically, when
the men were off duty. Their orches
tra was composed of three mando
lins, three violins, a flute and a base
drum.
The Germans treated their priso
ners relatively well, this was largely
from the fear that their own capture
was ultimately almost certain. The
raider is slow and they expected to
be overtaken at almost any time.
Their feeling apparently was that if
the prisoners spoke well of their
treatment the chances of the raider's
crew at the hand of possible captors
would be just so much better. Espe
cial consideration according to the
sailors, seemed to be given the Ameri
cans among the captives on the
raider.
Eleven ships were sunk by the
raider before the Cambronne was sent
to Rio Janeiro with the crews.
