OUT OF THREE IN
TULSA SERIES
1 I -
flourkes Take Final Game of
4 ; the Trio Against Oilers,
' J 5-3, After Hard-Fought
' , Batting Duel.
' The Rourkes showed the 400
.fans who. braved the cool breezes
out it Rourke Park yesterday that
their victory over the Tulsa Oilers
on Thursday was no fluke, by trim
ming them again. Manager Jackson
-used his new Ditcher. Shinkel, rc-
ceived from Sait Lake City, for the
first time. He outpitched Hewitt
of lulsa by a fair margin.
The. Omaha club garnered seven
bingles and Tulsa five. Shinkle
fanned three and walked three
Hewitt struck out two and walked
five. The game was interesting all
' the- way, yet slower by far than the
previous games of the series. It
itook the teams two hpurs to com
olete the nine innings yesterday.
Seven more batsmen faced Shinkel
than opposed Hewitt, but that was
mainly because of the five errors
. made bv the Rourke's infielders,
Cable bungling two that should have
. been easy putouts. lhe Oilers made
. four bobbles, but they were not in
critical places like those of the
Omaha players.
Tlie first hit of the game was
made by Eddie Hazen again, being
a single past the first baseman.
Eddie has gathered the first bingle
in each of the three games. Pitcher
Shinkel got the next one, counting
for two -hases. Bashang sacrificed
liim to third and Jackson fouled out
to Catcher Manion. Cable brought
Shinkel home' with a single, but
died on first when Kirby flied out
to left field.
t The sixth inning was the Oilers'
" undoitrg. The locals batted all the
way around, Kirby leading off and
jCable closing the inning. Kirby
singled, was sacrificed to second by
Gislason, Hazen walked and Kirby
;scored on Donica's single. Hale was
'safe on Shortstop Wuffli's errot, but
Wuf recovered in time to throw to
home1 and catch' Hazen at the plate.
-Shinkel walked and Bashang and
Jackson each hooked a single, scor
ing Donica and Hale and Shinkel.
" Cable hit a long fly to Davis in left
field and retired the side.
; Tulsa scored two in the fifth in
ning on two errors and Manion's
two base hit. WufflJ hit a three bag
ger in the eighth and scored on
Goodwin's single. The outs were
made in one-two-three order after
that. Score:
'; OMAHA.

Richie Mitchell Injured
Hand; Unable to Box Soon
Milwaukee, Wis., May 16.
Richie Mitchell, Milwaukee light
weight, probably will be unable to
box for at least a month as a result

received in his match with Johnny
Dundee of New York. The punch
loosened a gold filling in Dundee's
teeth. Because critics were divided
over the result of the contest, an
attempt will be made for a return
battle early in June.

"Germany" Schaefer
Dies En Route to Lake
Placid of Hemorrhage
Saranac Lake, N. Y., May 16.
Herman ("Germany") Schaefer,
noted ball player and comedian of
the diamond, died here suddenly to
day. He was on his way to Lake
Placid and suffered a hemorrhage
while in a New York Central rail
road train.' He was removed here
and hurried to a hospital, where he
died within at hour. Schaefer's
body will be taken to Chicago at
the request of John B. Foster, sec
retary of the .New York National
League club.
Herman Schaefer, who died at
Saranac Lake today, played second
base on the Detroit and Washing
ton American league teams, but had
been more prominent in later years
for his laughable antics on the
coaching line. He had been doing
scout work for the New York Na
tionals and informed Manager Mc
Graw at the Polo grounds yester
day that he was going to Saranac
Lake for a- short vacation.
Schaefer went with the New York
National-Chicago American world
tour party several years ago to fur
nish amusement for both players
and spectators. i
. His first big league engagement
was with the Chicago Nationals in
1899. In addition to the Detroit
and Washington teams, Shaefer had
played with several teams of the
American association. He joined
the New York Americans two years
ago as a coach and scout and, after
being released, did similar work for
the New York Nationals. He was
born in Chicago 38 rears ago.

Jack Dempsey Arrives
in Toledo; to Locate
Training Quarters
Toledo, O., May 16. With the ar
rival today of Jack Dempsey, chal
lenger for the world's heavyweight
championship, Manager Jack Kearns
announced complete plans for his
protege's training program for his
championship battle with Jess Wil
lard at Bay View park, July 4.
Kearns said that Dempsey would
work one week, and loaf the next,
so as to avoid going stale. He will
do all' of his training out of doors,
inasmuch as the battje is to be
fought in the open, and proposes to
do only light work for the first
week. The main effort will be to in
crease Dempsey's speed and to bring
his endurance up to the highest pos
sible pitch.
Dempsey was in high spirits after
finishing his motor trip from Chi
cago. He and Kearns spent the af
ternoon looking over sites for the
training camp, but no deal was
closed. It is likely the challenger
will establish quarters at the beach
at Lake Erie.

LEAGUE TO OPEN
SEASON MAY 25
New Amateur Loop Embraces
All of Johnny Dennison's
Plans; Organizer Is
Elected President.
By William O. Blories.
-"Better late than never" was the
slogan of the class A managers at
the meeting held last night at Park
Commissioner Falconer's office,
when the Greater Omaha league,
the crack class A organization, was
formed for the 1919 season.
The league will consist of the fol
lowing six clubs: Brandeis, with
Marty O'Toole in charge; Nebraska
Power Co., with Anton Gerhard;
Ernie Holmes, with Leslie Pickett;
Alurphy-Did-Its, with Eddie Lawler;
Council Bluffs Merchants, with Al
Storm and Armours, with Deleware.
All of the managers with the ex
ception of Deleware were present
and expressed their willingness to
play in this organization, as sug
gested by Johnny Dennison, well
known amateur base ball mogul and
former manager of the Luxus and
Melady teams.
One free game will be played on
each Sunday afternoon by the
leaguers and the other teams will
be given the opportunity to stage
games out of town.
The reason for the formation of
this organization is that it will give
the fans and followers of the nation
al pastime tne cnance ot seeing
Omaha's crack Class A teams in
action and will also allow Omaha to
be represented in the inter-city ser
ies for the championship of the
United States.
It was at first suggested that no
Council Bluffs team would be al
lowed to enter the league, but at the
suggestion of Manager Storm of the
C. B. Merchants, that should his
team win they will go under the
name of an Omaha organization,
since the Greater Omaha league is a
member of the Municipal Base Ball
association.
The league will commence playing
next , -Sunday, May 25, when the Er
nie Holmes crew will battle with the
Murphy-Did-Its. ' John Dennison.
organizer of the league, was elected
president, secretary and treasurer,
and will have full control of said
organization. President Dennison
will call a meeting the earlier part
of next week, at which time the
schedule, by-laws and constitution
will be adopted.

Now that Jack Dempsey is in To
ledo and Jess Willard is expected
there within a week, the Ohio box
ing fans will get their fill of fight
news. A half dozen ministers' or
ganizations have started a fight
against the big mill, declaring that
it will draw a mob of "thieves,
gamblers and hoboes" to their fair
state. Wonder what they will say
when some of them chance to meet
and converse with either Dempsey
or Willard. Both the big men are
fine representatives of this sport,
each being a perfect gentleman and
well versed in polite society man
ners. A short talk with ither of
them will no doubt change the opin
ion of some of the devout Chris
tians. It so happens that 12-round
boxing bouts have been held in To
ledo and several other Ohio cities
for a number of years and no de
cided "kick" was ever registered,
but when once the heavyweighths
try it out, a long loud wail is heard.
It's too bad we haven't more "Par
son Wedges" or Billy Sundays.
Either of these gospel advocates
would miss a meal to see a rattling
good scrap and it is likely that one
or both of them will be at the ring
side when the championship scrap
comes off.

What Is Rheumatism?
Why Suffer from It?
Sufferers Should Realize That
It Is a Blood Infection and Can
Be Permanently Relieved. '
Rheumatism means that the blood
has become saturated with uric acid
poison.
It does not require medical ad
vice to know that good health is ab
solutely dependent upon pure blood.
When the muscles and joints be
come' sore and drawn with rheu
matism, it is not a wise thing to
take a little salve and by rubbing it
on the sore spot, expect to get rid
of your rheumatics. You must go
deeper than that, down deep into
the blood where the poison lurks
and which is not affected by salves
