Giant Yans Win
From Buffaloes
Victoria. Tex., March 28. (Spe
cial Telegram.) The Giants won the
Ions end of a 5 to 2 score with Oma
ha Buffaloes here yesterday after
; noon after eight innings of baseball.
. The game was called at the end of
i the eighth frame on account of a
. heavy rain.
M alone, who went the whole route
" for New York, took a brace after al-
lowing three hits and two runs In
, the first inning, and then the Buf
faloes were never able to puncture
' the New York defense.'. They had
V numerous chances to score but
' Malone and his team mates were
right on the job and nipped he ral
( lies In the bud.
" . Orkie started for the Buffaloes and
for five innings he pitched superb
i ball. In the third frame the New
' Yorkers made two hits count for
one marker, but in the sixth frame
the Yanks laid down a barrage ot
. hits, getting four in a row, which,
, coupled with an Omaha error, netted
' four scores, enough to win. Wilson
f relieved Orkie and pitched two In
f nings and held New York scoreless.
The Buffaloes were handicapped
because of Griffin and Wilcox being
i out of the lineup. These two ath
V. letes lent a lot of weight to the of
; fense and defense of the But'fatoes.

Marty Krug Purchased
From Seattle Club
Won Omaha a Pennant
ARTY KRL'G'S baseball days appear far from ended.
The former Omaha manager ha just been sold by
Seattle to the Chicago Cubs for $7,500, and the National
leaguers are figuring on him to plug a hole at second base.
Krug has been playing ball more than 15 years. Back
in 191 J he was in the big league. occupying a berth as util
ity man with the Boston Red Sox, who that year won the
world's championship.
Marty didn't stick with the Red Sox, but was sent back
to the American association and then to Omaha. He came here as an out
fielder. Pa Rourke, then owner of the
Omaha club, made Marty manager
of the team and in 1916 Krug won
the Western league pennant for
Omaha.
Marty, however, eventually got in
bad with the fans and was let out.
He drifted to the coast, where he
played such good ball that finally the
Chicago Cubs became attracted to
him.
A Shrewd Player.
It was while playing with Omaha
that Krug switched from the out
field to the infield. ;
, Marty always has been a shrewd
ball player. He takes long chances
ind for that reason sometimes drew
the "raspberry" from the fans be
cause a long shot turned out wrong
and had all the appearance of a
"boner."
Out in California where the Cubs
irt training Krug is reported to be
hitting the ball hard, fielding like a
flash and scampering around the
bases like a 2-year-old. And his
arm, too, is still good, they say, de
spite the fact that he's been playing
baseball almost as long as the rank
ing veteran of the big leagues.
Rev. Beard Ready to
Meet Any Man in
Friendly Match
( Iloquiam, Wash., March 28. The
Rev. J. W. Beard of the First Pres
byterian church here, when notified
today that the Rev. Earl A. Black
man had offered to meet him in a
boxing contest before the national
convention of the .American Legion
next fall, said he was not now ready
to accept the challenge before so
large a body.
It was proposed that the two men
meet before the state convention of
the American Legion at Wenatchee
next fall, and the state legion has
been trying to arrange this bout.
"I am ready to meet any man on
earth in a friendly boxing match,"
the Rev. Mr. Beard, who was the
"fighting parson of the Ninety-first
division," said, "but I fear a bout
before a great convention of the
American Legion might result in too
much undesirable publicity. I'll have
to think it over."

Rates Reduced .Again
Beginning March 27 Yellow
Cab rates will be reduced another 15
per cent. XotcSust what the new rates
will be.
25 cents for
mile.
10 cents for each additional two
fifths mile.
20 cents for each passenger over
one for the ENTIRE TRIP.
This latest reduction makes
the Yellow Cab fare the lowest in
Omaha. Four months ago Yellow Cabs
made a reduction of 10 per cent, now an
other of 15 per cent. The second liberal
reduction in four months' time.
The new reduction means a
saving of 5 cents per mile, and Oma
ha's Yellow Cab rate is now the second
lowest in America.
We are playing .this game
for the highest stakes in the minds of
business men, namely, public approval and
confidence. We are in business to make
money, but only such money as is a fair
return of profit for our stockholders on
their investment. v
But before our stockholders
come our employes. They are all
loyal to the Yeilow Cab & Baggage Co.
and are giving you the kind of service that
we know they should and that we know
you are entitled to.
We do not want any bou
quets and we do not feel that we are
jjublic benefactors, but we do want Omaha
to know what we are trying to do and to
know that this is a corporation with a
business conscience.
We have arranged for the
Meter Company to install five of the
new meters per day with the new rates.
These new meters print in ink your com
plete receipt.
