Right after their humiliuting defeat of Suaday, the Omahas went out to the ball park yesterday and whallopped the Mil- ‘waukees as easy as couid be. In fact they didn’'t experience a bitof trouble, and when the game was called at the end of the seventh inning in order that the visitors might catch the first train home, the emerald sward was covered with the mangled and mutilated remains of the gay and festive Beer Jerkers. Ted IKennedy was in the box for the home team, and the same fellows who smashed Tommy Lovett the day before for twelve hits, were only able to get one safe one off him, He was too much for them every way, and acquitted himsolf with great eclat. Cooney did the backstopping for him, and say, you should have seen the little fellow cateh. His game was simply perfection, and the crowd uttested to their appreciation of his work by frequent bursts of applause. ver, the entire team did finely, and how they did it: In the first innings it was one, two, three for Omuha und one, two, three for Milwau- kee. That was it for tat. But in the second O'Connell led off with an exquisite hit to right, and on Oliver Te- beaw's duplicate, P. O. reached third. Then Annis and Miller wero extinguished, but on error of Jakey Strauss both base’ runuers me home, Kennedy ended the game. Aguin it was one, two, three for Milwau- kee. In the third, after the Poet had struck out, Chippey got first ou an error by Haw He stole second and third, in spito of Crossley's frantic efforts to catch him, The cherubic Jack Crooks took possession of a bag on bails, and as Crossiey vamly attempted to retire him in his effort to steal second, McGarr skated home. O'Connell aud Tebeau's outs spoiled any chance for further runs. For the third time the Milwaukees retired #s fast as they could step up to the plate. ‘The fourth was barren of results on either i s was the {ifth also for Omahs, but their half the visitors made their ouly tally. Hawes got his base on balls, stole second, and came home after Strauss’ long fly had settled within the Chippey's little hands. In the sixth the hous team scored twice. Crooks hit for a double, but was caught napping at second. O'Connell went out, but Tobeau, Aunis and Miller followed with safo hits, and the result was the first two scored. In the seventh, just to clinch their victory, they scored twice again. The Poet got his base on a fumble by Walsh. McGarr laced out a safe one, Burns going to third. Crooks then got in his sec- ond safe drive and Burns and the Poet crossed the plate. And that was all. “T'he Milwaukees are not hogs, and they knew they had enough, so umpire Quest called the game.

It was developed that decidedly ro- mantic features attach to the brief an- nouncement a few days ago of the mar- ringe at Neenah, Wis., of Mrs. Kate 1. Porter, of Chicago, and a Mr. John P. Roberts. Mrs. Porter is one of the wealthiest ladies in the northwest, hayv- ing an income of $25,000 a year. Fred- erick C. Porter, of the well-known fruit firm ot Porter Bros., was her first hus- and. Three years ago he died, pos- sed of unimeumbered real estate to the value of very nearly $500,000, which is managed by his brother, Washin ton Porter. In this real estate there are included valuable business blocks on South Water, Lake and Dearbon streets, Chicago, and the handsome apartment house known as the Belvi- dere, corncr Thirty-first street and Cot- tage Grove avenue, which cost over $150,000, By the careful and judicious management of Washington Porter and the natural increase of values in Chi- cago real estate this property has be- come worth nearly $700,000 and in less than ten years at the present rate of increase will be worth over 1,000,000, By his will the late Freler ter gave to his wife the entire income of this estate during her life iime. One- third of the property she can dispose of after death. Kute 1. Evans was Mrs. Porter’s maiden name. As Miss Evans she was a charming brunette. It was while on a visit in Chicago in 1872 that she met I'rederick C. Porter. She had plenty of admirers at that time, but she reciprocated the love of Mr. Porter and they were marvied during the sum- mer of that year. They lived happily together until Mr. Porter’s death, Dur- ing their wedded life one child was born to them, but it died in infan After her husband’s death Mrs. Porte went to Neehan to live a quiet and se- cluded life. She purchased a small schoouer yacht, and as she was very fond of fishing this formed her main amusement on the beautiful Take }\'lilnuu ugo during the summer and all. Three years ago she first engaged Mr. Roberts, to whom she is now married, to take charge of her craft. He was then a boy of eighteen, not exactly ill- looking, but he was not what might be termed handsome. Mrs. Porter was twenty-four when she married in 1872 and is now forty years old.

The husband is short and slender, and there is just the faintest vestige of a mo tache commencing to assert itself on his upper lip. Nevertheless, he is said to be a brave and manly fellow, who will make a good and faithful husband. Before Mrs. Porter married her pres: ent husband she expected to meet oppo- sition from Mr. Washingtou Porter, her brother-in-law, but that gentleman thought she kuew her own business best in this regard and made no objections, Ho simply wished her much joy and bappiness.
