The Lincolns have wanted the earth with a fence wround it and have been making all sort of will plays concerning the Union Pa cifics. When the game was finally ar ranged, an exeiting contest was expected, and the two thousand people who gathered at Athletic park yesterday aftos noon were filled with the hope—if noth- ing more—that the home club would do some of their old time work and give tho gentlemen from the capital city a drub bing that would relieve them of some of their conceit. The Lincolns came with a half dozen coach loads of grand stand backers, and were confident of scooping the lhome team without any trouble at all. When the time came for calling the game & row atose over the scleotion of an umpire. The naming of the umpire is a privilege always of the home team but the Lincoins refused to allow any man trom Omaha to umpire the game and held out for a league um- pire, whom they kindly brought with them. Manager y objected to thisand named three or four good umpires, none of whom we ble tothe Lincolns. The game was declared off and the erowd began toleave. The mostof the audicnce ised mdignant yells and cries of “Play wally an agreement was made and Schreiner, of the Leavenworth team, selected to umpire the game. The first two innings resembled a real ball game, both clubs failng to score. In the third inning the Lincolns got a run and by rattling the home tenmed scored four runs and then shut the home team out without a scor visitors had the game their own ter this and won without a_ strugg] score of 13 to 0. The result of the was not due as much to the good play: of the Lincolns as to tho wretched work of the home team. The Lincolns h an excellent battery in Hoover and Hef ner, and & good fi seman in Werner and a good short inagle. Outside of these they have a very ordinary team, They are not batters nor good base runners and with any kind of work all by the home team they could sily have been beaten. Omaha people ave been unusually liberal in their pe tronage of ball games but they are get- ting tired of spending their time and money to see the Union Pacific’'s loose games that could be won by sehool boy: In the first place the home team needs a pitcher, Harry Salisbury is one of the best men that ever stood in a pitcher’s box, and he has done some excellent work, but he is getting too lazy to prac- tice, and 28 a result he cannot be de- pended upon. He has a disappointing habit of going into a game with the ap- pearance of being in good trim and after an inning or two, when the friends of the liome team are looking to him to win the ame, giving out and calling in McKel- vey or Anderson, who, without practice, have no chance of filling the position ac- ceptably. Sulisbury ought to practice or quit. Bandle did fine work yesterday under the most discouraging circuni- stances. His stops of the wild pitches, and also his good throwing to second, were the only redeeming features of the game. The arrangement of the players for the home team was unfortunate. McKelvey was placed on second, when he should hayve played, third or short. Dugan, whois a_rattling good baseman, was stuck out in right field where he could do nothing. The club showed their sad need of practice in their throwing to bases and m working together, It was a picnic for the Lincolus to batafly and wateh th or four of the home team have a collision in run- ning for it, There is absolutely no sys- tem in their playing, and in consequence the good material that isin the club is unused, The boys ought to import two or three good players and then do some practicing if they expect to win any games. The only hit worthy of note made by an Omahan yesterday was that of a Union Pacific conductor who slapped the big mouth of a Lincoln blowhard who was trying to run the grand stand. D IN HIS BED, FOUND D James Shields, the Well-Known # terer, Dies Suddenly. James J. Shields, one of the best known laboring men in Omaha, was found dead 1 his bed at the Tremont house yester- day morning. On Saturday evening, about 5 o'clock, Thomas Callan, the pro- prietor of the Tremont, went to Shiclds’ room and found him lying in & stupor. He attempted to awake him but could not do so. Thinking that he was only exhausted and sleeping after his day’s work, Mr. Callan left him. At 8 o’clock yesterday morning he went to Shields room to call him for breakfast. Receiv- 10 response to his knock he opened the door and found Shiclds lying across the bed, dead. The coroner was at onco summoned and took charge of the remains and removed them to the undertaking ettablishinent of Drexel & Mauul, deciding that it was not necessary io hold an inquest.
