Never was the soundness of the old adage that a game of ball is not over until the last man is put out more strikingly exemplified than in yesterday's game at the local park between Omaha and St. Paul. ‘When the Apostles forged ahead in the eighth inning many of the spectators started 10 leave the ground under the mistaken idea that the day was Lost. But in the ninth McGarr came to the res- cue as he has cften done before, with the right kind of a hit, and finally he reached the plate with the tying run amid a scene of the wildest jubilation. But read the details and chuckle to your- selves. The Poet opened things up in the liveliest, most promising kind of a way, by lining out a safe hit to left. Annis, Crooks and O'Connell went out however, and he was left, It wus even shorter work with the Apostles. Not amau even had a chance to start for first. The Omahas netted a goose egg in the sec- ond. But not 8o with the St. Pauls. Before you could hardly make out how 1t was all done, they had gobbled up & couple of the althiest, most robust runs you ever 3 ett made a line hit to center, and then Mr. Earle hit Mr. Lovett a simash that fairly mude the audience gasp for breath. Away out over Billy Aunis' head the ball soared like a thing of life, and finally fell a mere speck among the carriages. It was a home run, and the air looked murky with gloom. But a little thing like that didn't amaze Lovett a particle, and he proceeded to strike out the next two men, and the third was re- tired just as Still there upon the bulletin people felt sad. The Omubas foucht deperately, and re sorted to everything which fertile brai could conceive, but they could not gev a tally home until the sixt And this is how they did it. Annis made ahit, and Foxy Crooks after several com- mendable efforts to get in the ball's way, finally succeeded, aund with a round bruise on his hip where the sphere had landed ho ran and took his base. Everybody laughed, of course, and halloved “Good boy, Crooks.™ O'Connell then stepped up and drove one with whiskers all over it right atthe man who used to keep a hotel. But Mr., Riley was there and he froze to the ball and of course Annis was forced out, but Crooks made sccond on the play hit to Pickett, and Pickett j le wus safe while Crooks reache The next momcnt he scored, as Cooney adroitly stole secondl. In the seventh two more runs were made. McGarr made a two bag gor and Nugle followed with a single, on which Chippey ran down to third, As Nagle essayed to steal second, Mac tried to steal home, bnt he was caught by a lightning throw of Corbett to Brough- ton. Lovett struck out, but Burns made his third safe hit, on wnich Nagle reached home. Annis’ handsome two-bagger branght Burns in and Omaha was one ahead. Crooks ended the innings by going out from Pickett to Morrissey. In their half the visitors tied the score. Pickett got his buse on an error by Cooney, stole second and scored on Broughton's hit. It was a blank for Omaha in the eight, but the Apostles got in another tally and once more were in the lead. After Tuckerman had flied out, Murphy hit a hard, lhrr grounder over the tirst base bag. O'Connel made o plucky dive at it, but just got his fln- gers on it and it swerved off to the right field fence, and hid itself in the grass long .enough for Murphy to make the circuit. Everybody was now ready to give up, just as if they didn't know the Chippey was on deck. He opened up the ninth with a line hit over short, stole second of course, and then after Nagle had fouled out, Lovett made a corking single, and amidst a deafening up- roar the game was again tied, It was a goosc egg for both sides in the tonth, but on hits by Nagle, Lovett aud Burns the Omahas managed to squecze in a run in the eleventh, and the game was won. * Ohmy! ohme! yououghtto have heard the people yell. ‘The St. Pauls retired in order in their half and left the grounds filled with disgust and oatmeal water. 1t was a hard game for thlum to lose, and a great one for Omaha to win. It was the first extra-inning game ever plxod on these grounds. 0 official score follows. It will show what great ball the Omahas played: OMAHA.

Grand Island’s Crack Club Yields the Palm to the Hardins. GRrAND IsLAND, Neb., Auzust 27.—| Special Telegram to Tue Bip.| —In the game yeste day, between the J. J. Havdins,of Omaha, and the unbeaten Union Pacifics, of Grand Island, the Hardms put up too stiff a game for fhe western champions, and won about as they pleased. Moftat was in the box for the Har- dins, and pitched a beautiful game, being hit safely only three times, He received ul- most faultless support iw the field, the work of Camp, McLaugblin and Bandle being especially fine. Ouly one ervor was credited to the Hardins, made by Lawson in the ninth inning after two were out, which let in the omnly run the Grand Island boys were able to get. The hard hitting for the Hardins was done by Hughes, MoLaugh- lin and Lawson, who collured Rourke's curves. For the Grand Islands Rourke pitched a good game, but received ragged support, while none of them were able to hit the ball with good effect. The crowd num- bered about fifteen hundred and was enthusi- astic only twice, once when their favorite, Pitcher Rourke, stepped on the field und again when they got that one big,nucy run in the ninth wmuing after all hope had departed.

Some of the iron supports were deemod by the inspector as of not suff- cient thickness, but Meyers had no altera- tions to make. He said if any chauges were made it would be to substitute iron of less weight for that which is beiug put in at pres- ent. It is smd there is some spie work in- volved in the complaint, the cause dating back to the time when Meyers condemned an iron stairway in the Douglas county court house, that was being put in by the same compauy vow doing the iron work om the county hospital.

They have been working for six or eight months to secure this concession. They had gone to the extreme lengths of sub- serviency to the railroad companies, threo time last winter and spring sending delega- tions to Des Moines to lobby in the legisla- at the bidding of the roads. They had isolated themselves from public n lowa on the railroad question, hoping thus to “lay up” on the soft side of the corporations. Now they get their reward. The Ulinois Central yields to the pressurc of the other roads and refuses the relief which it offcred. puts the Sioux City jobbers back to where they were nearly a year ago in fact, 1 worse vlight, becans orpora- tions hiave now deliverately refused the only relief which d to be compatible with the fu of the jobbing trade at Sioux that the jobbers and business men are indignant is a weak ex- pression, but they refuse to be interviewed for publication. ‘They are confused as to what they will or can do. Attempts to inter- view them show that they have a vague hope of relief somehow and at some time, but how or when they say not. STl Hot Congressional Campaigos. Des Moises, la., August 27—|Special to TrE Brex.|—Southwestern Iowa is likely to be the liveliest or about, as lively n battle gronnd #s there will be in the state this vear. Congressman Anderson announces that he will run again as an_independent, standing on his [mogene platform of 1336, and his record in congress the pust year. In 1his way he hopes to unite the entire opposi- tion in his support. Mr. Flick, the republican candidate, will get many votes that went to Andersou’ two years ago, because he is a good deal of an anti-monopolist himself. He was a member of the farmers’ granger legis- Lature of 1574, and has always been strongly inclined to anti-monopoly. Both men will make a vizorous hand to hand contest, The Sixth district will also ba hotly contested. Weaver's majority two yea AZO W small that the republicans think they c overcome it. Major Lacy, the republican can- didate, has announced his canvass, and he will conduet it on the neighborhood plan, An Original Package Suit, Cankorr, la., August 27.—[Special Tele- gram to Tue Bee.] —A decision was rendered in the district court here to-day deciding the first original package case ever tried in the state, and will, if sustained, affect the entire temperance legislation of Towa. The case in question was that of Offenback B. Selzer, with Blum of Chicago, for the defeuse, and M. W. Beach, of Carroll, for the plaintiff, Selzer is in the original package business here, and has an inmense trade in liquors. The defendant sot up the plea that “‘the right to import implies the right to sell.” and Judge Connor's decision upholds the defense and denies the injunction against Selzer. The decision has created quite a sensation, Pes Moines' Transit Troubles.

The stage settings wero marvels in their way, while the scenic effects and me- chanical execution was somothiog at ouce pronounced and increduious. It would be invidious to criticise other than in a compli mentary way, With a little more activity, with the infusion of a trifle more spirit_and esprit, with a general symmetrical rounding, and ‘the “Twelve Temptations” will prove an achicvement that will create a furore throughout the theatrical and amusement circles of the country, if not the world, Everybody seemed pleased tast night, and the demonstrative approval of hand and voice must have been something delightfully encouraging to the management, As o whole the productioy is a success, and and will prove a greater one after it has un- dergone a fudicions condensing process. Songs, specialtics and strange and novel in- cidents arc introduced with a rapidity that is as bewildering as it is pleasing. Every ef- fort is made to gratify the tastes of a crit audience. There are astounding illusions and_improssive transformations, and a ver- itable fantasy of hobgoblins, sprites, nymphs, S8pooks, gnomes, dragons, abnormal birds, ophidious wonsters, colossal behemoths and innumerable ferociousand fright ful creations of the carth and all and more than is therein, There are also no less than a triumvir of ballets, whose wondrous evc piroucttes and tortuous gyrations, whose dazziing habiliments and striking tableaux cannot fail in_producing the most notable and extraordinary effect. The piece, too, is replete with the most thilling climaxes, and the spectator is kept in a constant fever to know what wonder comes next. The ballet of cockatoos was one of the most charm- ing features of the ovening's entertain ment and evoked tremendous applause. ‘o the delicious strains from the orchestra twenty fairies appear in _their torpichot divertisement, with live cockatooe upon a gilt perch held o ul ¢ d flut tering and chattorin igh the reticu- lated evolutions of t To embody the within a single wo suy that it is a v in‘mintatur ituble micvocosm, a world a concatenation of wondrous circumstanees, woudrous things and won- drous doings. The costumes are paragons of maguiticence, and the scenic and mechunical contrivances something that must command ale, the author of this in teresting story and its ingenious dramatiza- tion, is the director of the performance and judging from the gentleman’s long experi- 1 familiarity with such matters bhe will shortly bring tiie *“Pwelve Temptations™ to a per ' 1o spectacular production occupying attention in this age und day.
