Another Expedition of Muscular Biants Bagged Between Bases. The Stannards of 8t. Louis Fol- low the Footprints of the ‘‘Reds,” And Retiro from the Fleld Minus Their Soalps. 8t. Louis has been unfortunate thus far in her selection of missionary clubs to slaughter the amateurs of the “‘Gate City.,” The second expedition from ““The Fature Great,” though heralded | with trumpets loud, was no more suc- cessfal than the first, which mot its Waterloo at the hands of the B. & M. | The Stannards left their homes Friday | last with the determination to return with Omsha scalps as trophies of the | diamond fisld, but their first attempt to secure the covated prize was a com- plete failure, and their dripping locks now dangle from the belts of the victorious Union Pacilic's, The game Satarday on the grounds of the laster club was a jug-handie affair from the third inning, the ficst two being ciphera on both sides. The pitching of Gorman cf the Staunards was “just to the taste” of the U, P.’s, who poanded hiwa over the field, while Hutchinson's delivery was so effective that ‘‘three strikes and out” was the general result, The addition of Elick as catcher, Hutchinson as pitcher, and L. Funk- houser as first baseman, places the U, P.’s at the head of the list of unpro- nal clubs of the country. The playing of all, Saturday, was strong, upited and brilliant in many in- | atances. I'he Stannards are remarkable chiefly for physical proportions, nearly all members of the club being above tho average size. Gault, the captain of the club, is considerably over mx feot in his socks, tips the beam at 225, and was a “‘tower of strength” in the right field, Kreymoyer, tho catcher, is auother giant—a lefc-handed one who did some very effective work be- hind the bat, though the wild pitch- ing of Gorman made it exceedingly diflicult apd sometines impossible to stop the ball. Carey, on the first base, is a sure and graceful catcher, but tho “dandy” player of the club is Byrd, short stop. In several instances, when the tide of defeatscemed strong est, his quick, effective and brilliant catches of *‘grounders” and throwing to first spoiled many a tally. The main defect in the playing of tho Stannards is a want of harmony, or rather, a lack of practice together, The members must have been gath- ered up at random, and hurried into the field without adequate practice to securo united action. Another groat fault was the Jack of a guiding heal in the infield to prevent confusion, The decisions of the umpire, Mr very unjust to the visitors, and created considerable comment. one time three of the U, P.’s were on bases. and the catcher either muffed purposely dropped the ball, quickly picked 1t up, touched the home base and threw it to first, putting the striker out. Only one man was de- clared out, and in the confuon as to the decision, the man on third was allowed to tally. The score is as follows: Uxiox Pacirics, as &, 18 19 Bandle, s, 5., 2b 11 Traffloy, 85, 6... 3 Funkhouser, L. Whitney, 2d b, Ellick, ¢, 8b.. Holland, 1. Dwyer, r. f. « Funkbouser, M.

His faultless play- |ing Saturday made him a general favorite, Lavin, sur-named Jumbo by the | Omahn people, will pitch to-day for the Blues, and willexhibit his romark- | able delivery and command of theball, | Jackis & good one, | Ellick, the new catcher, had his lit- {1le fioger ripped by a foul tip noces sitating a_chango with Traflly on third. Will has few suporiors bohind the bat, and the way in which he sooops in the *‘grounders” and his throwing to second is alone *‘worth the price of admission.” The Blues say they will win easily to.day and show the Bluffs boys that they ~ cannot beat them., Tho lads from tho Carbonate camp aro Meter- mined to offset their defeat on Satur- day laat, The gamo will no doubt bs cloao end exciting throughout.

The Mascotte redesmed himsclf Saturday, making a splendid rauning catoh and batting terribly. Traflly and Dwyer pounded the fence with Gorman’s balls. The Leadville Blues will play the Council Bluffs club on the Union Pa- cific grounds this afternoon. Every- one should go and see the game. The Bluffers beat the Leadville Sat- urday, by a score of 7 to 4. ‘The requeat of the B. and M. man- ager tor a game with the U, P.’s next Saturday, on the grounds of the former, was declined on the ground the club ‘‘was at present without a pitcher.” Whero are Hutchinson and Whitney The Leadville Blues will play their home and return game to morrow with the Council Bluffs club on the grounds of the latter. The Leadville Blues play the Blufts club this ufcernoon, in the U, P, grounds, this city. Tho Clevelands beat the Troys, at the home of the latter, Saturday, 3 to 0. At Providence, the Bulfalos beat | the home club, 6 to 1. The Stannards e their name from overnor Stannard, of Mis- souri. The similarity of *‘Standard” and “‘Stannard” led to the couflict of names. DORR IN ST. LOUIS, The ex-pitchor of the U, P's has won his firat laurels in St, Louis, He is the favorite of the famous Browns. Speakmg of the Brown-Allegheny game, the Globe-Democrat says: | “The only redeeming feature was | the pitching ot Dorr, the new man. | Ho looks ke u ball piayerand twirled | the sphere so cffectively yesterday | that the crowd was continually checr- | ing and making bim tip his cap. Not (a ruu did tho Alleghenies earn off his dulivery, wnd no less than a | dozen of the sluggers were rotived oun strikes. In the fifih | and sixth innivgs Dorr assisted six times, and this alone proves the merit | of the werk, The Browns failed to support him, and to the crowd it looked us though certain members of the home team were jealous of the merited applause 8o liberally bestowed on the new comer. The majonty seemed to be making no effort to win, and half the time there were no men coaching the base runners. Sullivan handled the hot ehot which Dorr sent over the plate in fine style, and ac cepted no less than twelve chances.” B . The Musical Union. The music furnished for the banquet given General Crook at the Millard hotel Friday was by that splendid organization, the Musical Union or- cheaira, Their playing on this occa- sion was simply superb, and it is to be hoped they will, in the words of Rip Van Wiokle, ‘dive long and prosper.” The programme of the evening was as follows: Greeting to General Crook meralda, Tempo di Bolew . ..Groothe Patri des Hyrobdelles, .

Delegations and 8pscinl Trains Rolling In from All Sides. The Great Annual Gathering of Soldiers, Sailors and Veterans. To-day is the opening day of the soldiers’ and sailors’ reunion at Grand Island, a gathering which promises to be one of the iargest of the kind ever seen in che United States. For sev- eral months preparations have been under way to make this meeting, which is now one of National import- Not only have the ust- ance, a succ:ss. comrades of the Grand ed their energies upon 1t but the great railroad corpo- ratione, appreciating its imporauce, have taken hold and the country has been thoroughly billed “‘from Dau to Beershel There is & *cloud about a * on the hor- izon, which indicates that the peace- ful assembly is liable to precipitate a war among the rulers of the rail and if the proguostications are realized thore will be a cutting of rates that will astonish the natives and every one who attends will get his passage free aud a chromo for going. One indication of an anticipated warfare is tha fact that the Union Pacific has borrowed a large number of coaches from the Rock Tsland road, in addition to their full compliment of rolling stock. A special train loft at 11:45 8, m,, yesterday,for Stromsburg, consisting of five Rock Island coaches, ono U.

A dispatch was veceived here yes- terday from the secretary of war, Robert Lincoln, that he had ordered suflicicut artillery and ammunition for the reunion shipped frow the arsenal at Rock Island, which will probably pasa through Omaha to day. A mentivg of the Omuna comrades of the Grand Army wes held at 4 p. m. yesterday at the cffice of Gen. G. M. O'Brien, at which 1t was decided to be impracticable to go out to the reunion in a body, on ac- | count of the members engaged in busi- vess which would not admit of their simultaneous departure, Squads will | go out each day up to Weduesday or | Thursday. The post headquarters for | George A. Custer No, 7 will be estab- | lished by Quartermaster H. H.

The celebration was a complete success and the jolly day, in which every hospitality was shown the visitors, was spent. At 6:30 the Omaha excursion left for home and at 9 o'clock the Lincoln special pulled out for the state capital. The Plasterers’ Protective union gave a grand excursion to Council Blutts yesterday, where a picnic was held at Horn's park. The picnic was given as a benefit for St. Joseph’s hospital and was well attended. Six coachloads, accompanied by the Un- ion Pacific band, left the U. P. depot at 6 o’clock for Council Bluffs, and no doubt had a most enjoyable time, L el o s GOOD-BYE, GENERAL. A Parting Salute Krom the Gallant Lifth Cavalry.
