2 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY. MAY 9, 1887 A BAD GANE ALL AROUND, The Lincolns Beat the Omabas By a Score of 21 to 18, HARD HITTING AND ERRORS. Manager Bandle's Resignation Re- ported--How the Western League Stands—Baseball as It Was Played Elsewhere, Omaha and Lincoln, It may be said truthfully that none of the members of the Lincoln and Omata base ball clubs could have been held on the charge of playing ball on Sunday, had they been arrested tor such desecration of the day of rest yesterday. The nearly three thousand people who paid admittance and for the Jux- ury of seats or benches to witness a national game were not fairly compensated. Under the rules of this year the batting and score record 18 certainly expected to be highet than it has been in previous 9, but it is not expected to reach the extraordinary figure of thirty-nine runs in one game, which was the result of yesterday's contest. The Omaha and Lincoln base ball clubs were not alone playing one of the championship games of the ‘Western loaguo yesterday. They were also laying for the pleasure of three thousand overs of the sport who had gone to the grounds and paid their money to see as ear- nestly contested and as skilfully played a game as the opposing nines were capable of. The looseness of the playing was, therefore, @s subject to criticism as Is the bad acting of & theatrical company who can do better. Both the Omaha and Lincoln clubs can play ball it they try. Yesterday the most of their play- g was done with their mouths. pecially ‘was this true of the visitors. From the first inning to nearly the completion of the game the captain of the Lincolns, Rowe, made {:imw] both conspicuons and obnoxious by icking upon every conceivable excuse. The wame opened at 530 o'clock, with Charles W. Strock umpire. In the first inning the nome nine went to the bat and_scored three runs through loose playing and expensive errors of the Lin- colns. Gennis, O'Tseary and Rourke were etired on short hits to the infield, The vis- ors retaliated with an equal number of uns, three of which were started off by ob- aining first base on balls,or wild pitches, by O’ Leary. In the second inning the Omahas batted around and it was Swift's bad fortune to nake two of the outs, whila Rourke made he other on ‘ive runs were scored. For the visitors Nelson de a magnificent hit, gending the ball high and fairly over the fence aud scoring a home run. “Two more runs were made by Shaffer and Rowe re- spectively. in the third inning the two nines were re- tired without adding more runs. Dwyer made a pretty two base hit, but he was cauzht napping. 1is being put out at second base urnished a somewhat enlivening incident. le had started toward third base and upon a fly hit by Walsh at- tempted to run back. Glenavin, the Lincoln second baseman, interposed, and Dwyer ran over him. He then ran off his base fo kick (Gleravin, and while engaged in this some- what risky amusement lie "was touched and raminute a war cloud loomed on because Dwyer had his war aint on. The umpire, however, quieted the Eoublu by personally intertering and calling wyer in. T{IB fourth inning resulted in Omaha in- irensinu the score by three, while Lincoln re- n the hori paid the compliment by adding four to its ally sheet. “The fifth inning found the score standing 12to11. Omaha batted territically and in- creased the 12 to 15 The Lincolns then wielded the willow so vigorously that three runs were scored before they had really warmed up to their work. O’Leary was being hit right and left and he failed to stop two palpably easy grounders. Walsh there- pon changed him, putting Rourke in the an. Krehmeyer, who lad been facing O’Leary’s hot and wild balls like a Trojan, still remained behind the bat and caught well, althougn it was evident the intense heat and length of the game were trying on . The change of pitchers did not pre- went the Lincolns, however, from climbing £wo Lotches Imfiher in their score and the in- ning closed with them ahead one run, the me standing, Omaha 15, Lincoln 16, In the sixth inning both nines nlayed ball, and in the seventh inning the game wasat an equally inte esun:; point, the Lincoln elub retiring in one, two, three order, and the Omahas again taking the lead by making &wo runs, When the Omahas had rolled up a big ipher on the first half of the eighth inning ft an to look asif biz batting and loose laying was at an end, but the Lincolns vent in and pounded the sphere wapple- awed.

This was a com- plete surprise for the bears and they made haste to cover, the result of ~which is an improvement. ‘The street was treated to several sensations, one being in Fort h & Denver City, which jumped over 14 points on covering by those who had sold the week short against ~ deposits of the same in the tenst company, aceording to an agreement under which subscriptions were made to the construction company now bullding extensions; and another in Rock Island, which rose 7 points, the advance ha ing been started by the reports of a *“melor and afterward materially assisted by the bidding up process on the part ot one of the boldest of traders, Som@ other stocks, notably Jersey Central, New England, ‘Tennessce coal and ron, Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western and Alton & Terre Haute, rose 3@4'4 points, and the rest of the list to a. smaller extent, the Vanderbilts, Grangers, Wabnsh, and Pacttic Mail, and some of the speclalties having been conspicuously strong. After the demand from the shorts had been supplied, and London did not send the buy- ing orders that were expected, the room traders and professional bears hammered the lists, paying particular attention to New England. While the events of the week have again demonstrated that it is much easier to lift than depress prices, it is to be said that the market is a narrow one, and operators do not wait long on_elther side for results, ‘which conduces to rapidity of ehanges.

NEW Yorg, May 8.—[Special Telezram to the Brk.|—The United States naval tor- pedo board, which was in session at the Brooklyn navy yard last week, is soon to ex- periment with a torpedo invented by Gen- eral H. Bordan. Bordan has recently re- turned from Constantinople, where experi- ments were made with this torpedo, and he has made contracts with nearly all foreign powers to supply them with it, on condition that they are satistied with it upon trials. ‘rhe testsare to be made in this country, and representatives of the governments with whom he has contracts are to come here to witness the tests. General Bordan said yes- terday: ‘“When the English navy was going through its manceuvres not lon g ago on the Irish coast an artist for the London Graphic made a sketch of one of the vessels in the act of letting down a net made of steel, used to protect the vessel from torpe- does. The publication of this sketch was the tirst knowledge other governments had of this steel net. The matter had been kept a profound secret in the English navy. I had previous knowledge of the matter and had for sowme time been at work on a torpedo designed to circumvent this net. 1t takesa 1,900 pound charge of dynamite to penetrate twenty-four inches’ of armor whereas a Whitehead torpedo charge is only ninety-throe pounds, 80 that those ships were safe at sea from all ex- isting torpedoes, even without nets, while with this contrivance all the vessels of the fleet could be made secure. I set to work to invent a torpedo which could strike the vessel Dy going under the net and up under the center of the hull of the ship. At a point wherae the ship i3 weak and the gas is strong even a small dicharge of dynamite will de- stroy the vessel by oing un under the hull. 1 have succeeded in accomplishing what 1 in- tended to do and this is tue torpedo which the government is soon to _ test, and for which 1 have already made contracts with foreign governments. It consists of an arrangement fastened to another ship with a ram and pneumatic buf- fer. When this strikes the vessel attacked it loosens the torpedoes which are fastened by a cable to the attacking vessel. By this means the torpedoes swing down and under the net and strike under the hull of the ship altacked. ‘I'hese torpedoes contain 200 Imlmds of compressed gun cotton and there s no mistake of their work.

NEW YORK, May 8.—-|Special Telegram to the Brg.)—Before the war Daniel Hand, a wealthy citizen of Guilford, Conn., and George Williams, one of the members of the banking tirm of Williams & Birney, Charles- ton, 8. C., were i1n the grocery business on a large scale at Atlanta. Williams was the bookkeeper, with a small interest in the busi- ness. Hand then held $400,000 iu real estate, When the war broke cut the business was closed up and Hand came mnorth, having turned the real estate over to Williams with tho private understanding that he would re- turn it. After peace was declared Williams’ honor was all that Hand depended upon, Williams lost nearly all of the property dur: ing the war, but after the war he prospered as a broker in Charleston. Meanwhile Hand prosvered in_the north. He was a liberul giverto the Yale dlvinity school and en- dowed the Hand academy at Madison. Re- arding his southern property as totally lost, Eu did not give the subjeet much thought until six years ago. His lawyer then learned Williams’ address, and though Hand had no legal clalm gpon him Williams ackunowl* edged the debt and at once began payments in large sums. The Iast payment was made a few days ago, the total being about $650,000, ———— A Contralto Brings Suit For Salary, NEW YoRK.

In view of the part that enthusiasm and emotional vigor hav successful canvasses since 1828, demo- cratic politiciansmust regard the canvass of next year as one which will eall upon all their resources to excite their healthy passions. He will be a genius indeed who will invent a nickname for Presi- dent Cleveland that will stimulate men when they hear it. And he will be even greater who will coin the watchword for the canvass. “Turn the rascals out,” won't do. That was one of the cries in '84, but they were not turned out much faster than big lenses for telescopes are. Reform? Yet Colonel Watterson asserts that the star-oyed goddess weeps. Wipe out the surplus? But that would be twitling on facts, it would be a sarcusm. In order to have the watchword and the sobriquet that expresses a living, genuine democratic idea, there must be found the man. There are some. There would be a heap of enthusiasm, for instance,in the laconism of Governor Hill. “I am a cdemocrat.” That would be a platform, There’s enthusiasm enough bottled up in that expression to serye for a dozen cam- paigns. Yet it would not be likely to win the mugwump vote. persuasion. Publius and Agricola, Senex and Justitia labored by means of open letters of prodigious length to preyail i monarchical federalists or an-democrats. The press was great in its political essays, and very It reported the duel between Burr and Hamilton in ten lines, and ratiocinated by the column on abstruse political theories. The great conventions that in these days nominuate for the pre: e then unknown. Grave caucuses verv grave members of congress placed the can- did; n nomination. Sometimes even this formality was dispensed with, and the electoral college voted for the candi- ndicated by what is now called the consensus of opinion. Federal- ists as a party gasped and died soon after the war of 1812.” Calm respectability and conventio decorum preval Pla- cidity followed, and Mr. Monroe was elected for his second term without the ripple of a_ political wave or the an- tagonism of an idea. To that point we had come,and the danger that threatened was that of dry rot. Then of a sudden our whole system of political activity was changed. We plunged into the can- vass of 1824 with a watchword, an in- spiring cry, that stimulated men and made them enthusiastic. It vitalized politics. It began the splendid series of popular and healthy turbulences which have eyer since characterized presidential canvasses, and yet this inspiring cry was simply a nickname—Old Hickory. *‘OLD HICKORY"' JACKSON, ‘‘Nicknames," said Napoleon, not be despised;’ and —— -t The Interstate Law.

It was the first to be carried into a pres- idential canvass, and 1t was potent be- cause it represented an idea. Andrew Jackson represented force, courage, vi- tality, popular government without the frills and the ceremonials of the foreign courts, encr‘]; , and genuine democracy strengthened by experience. This set the sluggish volitical blood of that. day to dancing, and this canvass, in which men became enthusiastic and excited, taught the politicians of that time that there was health and \'ifior in this stirring up of men, by appealing as well to their sentiments and emotions as to their rea- son. Stagnation had threatened us. But the wild whirl of an exciting pres- idential canvass claritied and invigorated politics. And it is precisely this most healthy and needful element of our po- litical life that the so-culled civil service reform of to-day antagonizes. If we could reform” human nature as well as the civil service there might be no need of the activity, enthusiasm, energy and other forces that come from a stimu- lation of the emotions. But while human nature remains what it is, we should get our political oxygen through these agencies. and that is a benelfit that will be far better than the evil, if there be any, in our civil service system of placing in the administrative office men nsympathy with the party in power, ¥rom the time when, under the inspira- tion of Jackson's name, men free political canvasses from the appalling dignity and solemnity that first charao- terized them, the tendency has been to call into play all the emotional powers, and we find this exemplitied in the striking and significant nicknames or so- briquets that were attached to the great party leaders. Men catch at a nick- name, It brings a candidate nearer to them. Itis one of the equalizing re- sources of democracy. And so we find that after the charm of Old Hickory has shown its vower, there was developed speedily not only a strong, hearty and vigorous opposition to the party Jack- son resuscitated, but a tendency to idealize its great leader by a sobriquet, and in 1831 the rapidly crystallizin, whig party began to talk of “Harry of the west.” POWER IN POLITICS, _The younger generation cannot appre- ciate the tremendous power there wasin that sobriquet. It idealized Clay. It typified his m:ufnolic qunlities. It made a pohitical equal of a_great intellect. It matched for the whigs the enthusiasm created by the mention of Old Hickory nmun% the democrats. 0O1d Hickory's heir apparent was Mar- .tin Van Buren, and he went into the White House, after a splendid canvass, in which the nickname of ‘“‘The Little Magician’’ played a potent part. William Henry Harrison was then beaten by the Little Magician, but four years later there was a canvass for the presidenc; that can only be described as magnifi- cent. KEvery citizen was made to feel his sovereignty n it. It was a cyclone of political activity. Harrison was nick- named, and in every cress-road corner men shouted for 'l‘uumcunoe and Tyler too, Old Tip, Hard Cider, Log Cabin, and the refrain Van, Van 1s a used-up man. All these emotional stimulants stirred men to their marrow, and vitalized our politics so thoroughly that the effects were felt for years, In 1844, four years later, *“Harry of the West” was the whig watchword used,and it aroused an enthusiasm fully equal to that displayed for Old Tip in 184). The democrats had nomipated a man whom it was impossible to apply a sobriquet to. He was not well known. His personality aroused no enthusiasm, and the best they could do for Polk wus to cry: **Polk and, the Tariff of '43." In 1843 the democrats agan nomin- ated one of the old school, General Cass. He was not a man to idealize by a nick- name. But Taylor was a character that luiggolwd plenty of them. “Old Beuna Vista' gave hnt of his military renowny but the wbrlfluot that was m every whig’s mouth during the canvass was it as suited them, and then cultivated the belief that all the trouble was chargeable to the law. Instead of redeeminyg their r]mlgcs to give the lnw a fair trial and to honestly endeavor to conform to its pro- visions, they have done everything in their power to make it odious and to make it appear that it would be ruinous the business interests of the nution. A very brief review of the facts will make this position perfectly apparent.
