Both Musser and Merz in a
Scoreless Pitchers' Duel,
" Blow Up in the Late
' ,t Innings.
Des Moines, May 5. Special Tele
gram,) A scoreless pitchers' battle
developed into a batting bee and a
near riot in the eighth and ninth in
nings today. Des Moines more than
held its own at both the hurling and
the hitting, and won the ccond
straight game from Omaha, S to 4.
Musser and Merr, the opposing
hurlers, met on even teyns until the
eighth "when singles by Musser, Cas
and Shanley and an error by Calla
haft netted, the locals. three ruffs. -
Omaha came back viciously in the
ninth, however, andiiitsby Donicka,
Defate .'and Callahan vith a pass to
Hanford an, a J wild throw to tlhird
by .Musser gave the visitors four.
Marphy Called Safe.
In the ninth Men walked Murphy,
Coffey singled knd Breen and Llewel
Ivn, the latter batting for Koval, hit
Texas leaguers, scoring two runs.
Manager Jackson of Otnaha protested
the'garxte on a decision at the plate
on Murphy, whose score tied the
game) When Breen hit his Texas
leaguer back of second bafc. Mur
phy ran or home.t-but Holdenfan
n-ade a "quick 'recovery and pegged
to the plate. Pratt blocked Murphy
from the plate and fell on top of him
but dropped the ball. Pratt lay pn
Murphy, holdings him from the plate
vkhil MVrx ran in. nicked uo the ball
and tagged him. Umpire Daly called
Murphy ; safe on interference by the
, Omaha catcher.
A crowd of nc.-.rly 3,000 fansTsaw
th contestwhich was exciting
throughout. !t is probable that the
attendance will cause the club owner
to keep the team here until after the
. next road trip at least.
Five double plays, which helped the
pitchers out of holes, featurra the
'contest. H

PLAYERS GATHER
IN BIG CROWDS
Rjne Weather Starts Interest
in Game and Contest for
Champion Honors-Given
Start.
By FRANK QUIGLEY.
When the local exponents of the
horsehide game climbed out of the hay
Sunday morning Old Man Sol greeted
them, and said gentlemen injected
pep that had been missing heretofore
owing to the disagreeable weather
ushered in since the Omaha Amateur
Base Ball association -opened the
gates. The only thing that prevented
the goods from. being delivered as
prescribed, was the wind. Unless due
precaution was taken to allow ior the
wind few wild throws could easily
be made.
Considering climatic conditions the
crowds until Sunday were fair, but
yesterday's attendance, aviated above
the expectations of the directors.
At 32d and Dewey avenue a large
bunch of jovial fans decorated the
bleachers and side lines. Many
watched the games at Miller park
from gas wagons, but the grandstand,
orside-lines, were not over -packed.
The largest turn-out was at River
view park. Fan crowds were on deck
at Elmwood park, Fontenelle park
and Soufh Side park.
The revenue from the Omaha parks
controlled by the association, namely
Holmes park and Lucus park, should
bring the -Quaker smile from the di
rectors. Large crowds saw the
diamond lights, some of which might
land in the big show some of these
days.
Evenly Hooked Up.
Apparently the teams of the Great
er Omaha league are evenly hooked
upyat least it cVveloped that way
when in each game the winners
stysaked off with the grapes with the
small margain of one run., By hand
ing flrr Krajiceks a dose of defeat in
a grueling 3 to 2 squabble the Murphy
Did lis pushed the Krajiceks down
the lajdder and are now fortified on
the top of the heap -with a clean slate.
The, Longeways. and Krajiceks are
tied for position two. In their initial
league bout of the season the Besse
lins lost to the boys across the pond.
The Holmes Whif Sox looked
sweeter yesterday and came close to
the money but Tailed. by one run.
A quartet of teams are knotted for
roost one in the City league. Yester
day the National Cash Registers up
set the molasses and the woodmen
of the World found it it a sticky job

to-spick out a pearl, so it was satis

the National rung up nine counters.
The "Stags proved a stumbling block
to the much-touted Central Furniture
squad. ' '
Some of the Results.
In the American league the Sample
Harts and Florence Merchants are
holding the roof posish and the So
cial settlement boys are carefully
guarding the basement.
For the Sample Harts against the
Men's Fashions, James Mirasky clout,
ed one for permission to circumnavi
gate the bags and Penault heaved
a beautiful game.
Another tie game was unloaded in
tbe Booster league. Said jamboree
terminated with the score four up.
This fuss was between, the Trimble
Brother jrs., and the Riggs Optical
company. In this league the Trimbles
and Roots have a corner on berth one
and the Optical dudes and Harley
Davidsons are the proprietors of a
bunch of ciphers.
Large scores were the particular
feature of the Inter-city, the Daily
News warriors marching off with the
medal lead. This bunch trimmed the
World-Herald with the hoodoo 13
rims to spare, the final count being 14
to one. During this argument Voker
and Bernstein each tickled one for
the limit. Two twirlers worked for
the News crew and only allowed one
hit. , . :
Four circuit smashes' happened dur
ing the Dresher-Krajicek duel. Three
by the Dreshers and one by the Kra
jiceks. The Dreshers and Daily News
are tied for the top and the World
Heralds and Grahams Ice Creams are
fighting for the basement.

BRANDEIS TEAM
Uncle Sam's Boys Bring Up
Their Big Guns and Defeat ,
, Local Champs on Dia-"
mond Field. '
The soldier boys threw a bomb in
to the Brandeis boys Sunday after
noon when they scored three runs
on a single, two bases on balls and
a double cleaned the taths. ..
The local toys s.o6n got used tc
the noise of the soldiers artillery and
started a counter-offensive in the fifth
inning, not pausing in their rush until
five runs had been captured. ".
General Williams, chief gunner fot
the infantry, was recalled for his part
in the disaster and General Winbigger
took charge, but it was too late.
In the eighth the soldiers tried to
recapture the lost trenches and used
some heavy artillery named Coffin and
Walter. Both these guns were smoke-
less, high velocity, long range affairs
and they carried clear t the 1 fence
for two twd-baggers and one run.
The rxUwo gunners shot long range
shells, but they were caught beforo,
exploding and so no damage was
done. TJiere was a fair crowd but tne
boys in I khaki were deserving of4a
far better one. ' ,
And the Band Played.
The band gave continuous selections
throughout the game and was worth
twice the price of admUston. 1 he
playing of the "Star-Spangled Banner
bixmght the spectators to their feet
and it was an inspiring sight to seo-
those khika-clad men stana.aj. auci.
