THE VISITORS' TWO SCORES. They Look Small Beside the Home COlub's Twonty. COLD DAY FOR THE MINNIES. Denver Pounds Des Moines Out of Bight—Other Games Played Yes- terday in League and Association. Another Victory, By the practice of a little con, game the Omahas again prevailed upon a lot of farm- srs from Minneapolis to go out to the ball grounds, yesterday afternoon, and play them A game of ball. It would have been better for the Minnies had they remuined away. For the white legs not only won the game quite handily, but gave the visitors an un- merciful thrashing. Verily, Minneapolis’ lot is far from happy. There were only about four thousand peo- ple present when this happened, and oh me! weren't they glad ! 1t was bad enough for Morton’s aggrega- tion to loose the game, but to be jumped upon and tramoed in through the sod was much worse, So it can not be wondered at that Captain Henglo was as sore as a boil last night. Morrison, erratic Morrison, started in to do the rotating for the Minneapolis, but he isno hog and knows when he's got. enough. Ono Innings was about his size yesterday. Then Turner went into the box, and the Minnie's luck changed and—got worse. Long, lank, cadaverous Mr. Jantzen did the catching. ‘Willis and Nagle were in the points for Omaha and their labors were superb. The first inning opened up in _an enthusi- astic manner, and the multitude was fairly tickled to death. The French count from Amsterdam, known as Herr Strauss, by a hittle judicious waiting, was presented with his base by Mr. Morri- son. ‘Then the ex-president smashed the ball out into the left garden for i the count, reaching third. Jack an emulatory mood and so he just smacked her for a bag himself, sending Strauss across the plate and Buffaio to third. Crooks stole second, skating in to the bag on his shirt front. Morrison was mad, and he fired away at Cooney at random, catching him in the calf of the leg. Of course he went to first, and the bags weroe all occupied. Sir Joseph Walsh now stepped up to the rubber, and as the slanting sunshine glinted among his ‘warm tresses, ho looked like tho statue of Btern Resolv Morrison secured the ball in his sinuous fingers, bent his body and let her go. came like a rifle ball and would probably have gone clear through the grand stand had not it been for one thing— Thav was Walsh's club. The sphere collided with 1t with a sound not unlike that made by blowing up a peanut sack and sitting down on it with great sud denness. It*went hissing out into Minne han’s territory, and both Cleveland and Crooks ran home, while little Coouey scam- pered clear round to third, Walsh immedi- ately dasiied away for second, and in his eagerness to nip the young man in the full flush of his ambition Minneapolis' elongated backstop threw the ball way over Hengle's head, and the tropical-haired boy waltzed on 10 third while Cooney croosed the plate, The yells of the excited audience were long, loud and ageravating. It was such a pretty sight to see the Omahas gallivanting around the bases. The next moment Walsh aaded his tally to the total score on a wild pitch by Morrison, which was also a missed third strike, Naglo being at the bat. 7 ’ It was tough on Morton'’s crowd, but the audience howled with fiendish delight all the me. Catavan, Messitt and Willis went out and the fun lulled for a few moments. Mickoy Morrison had an elogant suf- ficlency, and he changed places with Tur- ner, in middle field. The people sympa- thized with him, but they were too happy to ©6psorvo a respoctful silence. Willis signalized his appearance by strik- tn&» out the two first Minnics at the bat in u iffy. No one knows what a jiffy is, but that s what a swoet-faced girl” said, who sat right bohind the scorer’s box, all through tho game. Turner and Daly went back to the be Il;lldl‘nkun, whilo the people cried, “oh! oh ! ‘That wns pretty work. \Clgar Sigu’” West took first on four bau s, ‘Thut wasn't quite so pretty. Reddy Hanraban, however, flew outto Crooks, and 80 no harm was done. In the second the Parisian secured first on awild throw by Turner, who had taken Mike's place in the box. He went to secoud on Clevoland’s second safe hit, stole third, and then actually stole home, The way the audience grected this exploit made the Minnesotans sic 01d Buffalo ambled clear round to third ou Crooks’ out from Turner to West, and scorod on Cooney's drive to right. The lat- ter got to second - on a passed ball, third on ‘Walsh's hit, but was caught at_tho plats as he eudeavored to score on Walsh’s steal of second. Hengle madea great throw, and was deservedly applauded. Naglo siruck But seven runs in the fivst two innings was plonty. In their half, the visitors got the first of their two runs. Coouey made an inexcus- able muff of Farmer Miller's long high fl and Hengle sent him home on a Incky twe sucker, Turner was scized with o gencrous streak in the third, and he made both Canavan und Mossitt a present of first on eight wretchedly hu'xlllbulla. : 'hey stole sccond in concert,and a moment later Willis drove them both home by a rat- tling drive to ieft. Right here the trenchant air was again sot l-guwer with chin music, Strauss went out at first, but President Olevelund reached first on Daly’s muff of his fly, but Crooks and Willis were doubled up, and the Omabus had to be content with 4 pair of tallies. The Minnies wore Chicagoed, Turner and West striking out, and Hanrahun dying at firat. Daly, however, had reached {irst on balls, But why continue this monotonous story? Won't it suftice to know that the White Legs, ©on two hits, two errors and u base on balls, scored threo times mora 1 the fourth; onco in the fifth on a hit and & counle of 'sacri- fices, and fivo times in the sixth, on Mos- itt's thre r, Willis, single, Cleve- land's baso by being hit, Crooks' three- bagger and Cooney's base on balis; once in the scventh @ couple of singles and a couple of steals, and once in the ninth on Canavan's wagnificent crack over tho loft fleld fence for a home run. ‘The Minnies were blanked with dreary monotony up to the eighth, when on an error, & lovely two-sacker aud'a single thoy managed to squecze in ono moro atienuated little run. ‘The third game will be played this after- 800n.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH Whore the Bee Was Born, and Where the Youths of Many Years Ago Assembled to Develop Muscle. An Early Sanctuary. The erection of the proposed Com- mercial National bank on the vorner of Sixteenth and Farnam strects has re- suited in the demolition of the old Redick rookery and the first Congro- gational church erected in this city. The last brick of the latter has hardly been removed from its place, but the little structure, with all its associations, will now live but in the memories of those who love the past. Yesterday, there stood wupon the curb an aged lady, clad in mourning robes. Despite the clouds of dust from the disintegrated mortar and the danger from passing teams, she watched the work of demolition with an interest which was displayed in every feature. Onee, when a section of the wall fell with a dull sound upon the debris, the lady’s eyes flashed as if she considered the destruction an act of vandalism. She was alone in the world. It was that little church in which, as a girl, she had first worshipped in Omaha. It was in that little sanctuary that she had first seen the gentleman to whom she was afterwards married. It was within those walls the matrimo- nial alliance was consummated,through the agency of a minister who has since been called beyond the tomb. There were her children baptizea, and there, too, bareaved and heart-broken, she first appeared in widow’s weeds. Burn- ing tears avose in the old lady’s eyes,as, with tottering steps she left the affect- ing scene. But she had viewed for the last time the little house of prayer which was 80 intimately connected with everything she held cear in life. The church was organized by the Rev. Reuben Gaylord, whose widow and son i s city. He was a na- tive of Norfolk, Conn., and a graduate of Yale college. He arrived here in September, 1855, and_on the following Christmas day was joined by his wife and daughter. He commenced to preach in the council chamber of the old terri- torial house on the last of December. His services were held in the afternoon and his salary was $600 per year. On the 4th of May of the following year Mr. Gaylord organmized the First Con- gregational society, the membership congisting of but nino poople,comprising, as the reverend gentleman mentions in some of his recollections, nine people, namely, Mr. and Mrs, O. D. Richard- son, Mr. and Mrs. B. H. Chapman, James W. Seymour, a Mrvs. Allen and the clergyman himself with his wifeand daughter. The year 1856 arrived be- fore steps were taken to erect a church when T. G. Goodspeed, BE. Estabrook, still in Omaha, and Lorin Miller, de- ceased, were appointed as a committee on construction, In those days the population of the city did not exceed 200, The site of the church had been donated by the ferry company. In his notes, Mr. Gaylord says that the work of making contracts and getting ma- terial devolved upon him and that it was no easy task. “The saw- millon the bank of the river, owned by Mr, Salisbury, was continually besieged, and to get the timber as fast as it was needed, it was necessary to have a team ready to haul it away as fastas it was cut. The work was done during illness in the clergyman’s, except when his family physician, Dr. Miller volunteered to aid him. While the church was in course of erectior, services were at intervals held in the dining room of the Douglas house. on Harney street, near Thir- teenth. On the 26th of Oetober, 1856, the structure had been so far completed that the congregation was enabled to hold services in the basement. A Sun- day school was organized, under the direction of Mr. Kellom, and the mem- pership of the association was increased by six worshippers. The building we completed in 1857, the carpenter work being done by James K. Boyd and his brother John Boyd, the former of whom is too well-known in this city to be further referred to. The painting was done by Mr. Robb and the trimming by Mr. McAusland. Completed, the building was but a little coun- try church, with its sugar-loaf ing upon a white square base, s may even now be found in ten thousaud cities and hamlots in the land. The dedicatory exercises did not take place until the 9th of August, 1857, when there was gathered a very large audience to do honor to the oceasion, In 1855 and 1860 the church eujoyed suceessful revivals, the last continuing for several week Rev. Mr. Gaylord continued as pas- tor until 1864, when be retived to ac- cept the agency in this state of the e issionary association, caving the church with ninety-six members. The cost of the church was 84,500, and wus supplied by the proceeds of a fair, the first of the kind held in Nebraska, It took place in the St. Charles hotel, then on Harney street between Thirteenth and Twelfth streets. After many years of success- ful labor, Rev. Mr. Gaylord died in Omaha, January 10, 1880, leaving the im- press of his character upon the minds of many people now in this city who still fondly cherish recollections of the saintly divine, Iu this connection many of those early worshippers will be pleased to Kknow that, about the end of June, the widow und son of Rev. Mr. Gaylord will_publish a_history of that gontle- mun’s life, which wiil necessarily be largely a history of Omaha duving the period between 1855 and 1880, A briet paragraph in these columns, soveral duys ago, told of the demolition of the house in which THE BEE was born. The structure was of frame, was old and dry and although it went down in the midst of a rain storm, the clouds of dust which filled the air reminded onc of the breezy days uot long ago, when a zephyr could and did fill in the atmosphere witn dust so thick as to mulke it almost unbearable. A The house in question stood on ‘the southeust corner of Dodge and Twelfth streets, and was long known as the Red- field house. Like many another ancient structure, it had a history which is aptly told in a little semi-occasional UllluuL published last January by M. H. Redfield. It had not pretensions. It was a plain frame buyjlding, of two stovies,with rough sides and windows on every side. Thousands of people in all the years it has stood the unmss(s of the elements have passed little thinking of the part it has played in the enlighten- ment of the people of this section of the country, On this subject, the gentle- mau referred to, writes: “There clusters around the Redfield printing house, from which this paper emanates, enough of newspaper hiswry to make @& reepectable volume. For twenty-two years the type have been furnishing messages to countless read: ers. Hore have been laid many schemes in business, politics, and even in relig- ion. Here have beon seen all sides of the natures /of men wno have made their names fin:‘Omaha and Nebraska. Some future iksue of this paper may turn to biography{ but the present will touch only upon history. No single printing office has been o prolifie in newspapors as this, Some of them sorved their day and died; others were wrecked by the financial brénkers, while others have survived all Wificulties, and are pub- lished to-dny., 1 Aside from ithe papers that were printed here,this office used to be a sort of refuge for the other papers in the city, when defective machinery pre- vented publication in their own office. Brenk-downs were common in those days, and on such occasions the Herald or Republiean would cart their forms to the ‘‘old reliable,” and take posses- sion of everything to complote the morning’s issue. Every courtesy ex- istea among the printers of those days and friendships were formed that will only be interrupted at the grave. But our history must begin:” Mr. Redfield then tells about the es- tablishment of the Agriculturist by Jeremiah Behm, January 1, 1869; the Daily Argus, October, 1870, by Charles E. Redfield, and then refers to THE BEE as follow “One of the proudest offshoots of the Redfield printing house is THE OMAHA BEE, the first charge for which appears under date of June 19, 1871. Mr. Ed- ward Rosowater wes at that time super- intendent of the only telegraph com- pany 1n this city, He was possessed of several pieces of property, including that in which Tur Bik s now printed, and one of the lots on which iscon- structed the new Brge building., where Mr. Rosewater resided 1n a small cot- tage. The first issue of the puper was a quarter sheet 24x36, only one sido printed, and was distrib- uted free. Mr. Frank Kaspar, present councilman of the Second ward, was one of the ecarriers. Mr, Rosewater had an idea of establishing a permanent paper, but still the first issues were published as experiments. The following entries from the order book of that time show what THE BEE circulated, as well as the cost of me- chanical work: June 10%1871, 500 copics S0 S RRRTBD Bty .$16.50 8.13 (O THIC 5 16 95 10001 ¢ ) “ g5 w1900 1 0 1 the 17th of July, the same year, when Mr. Rosewater rented a room in the same building and did his own type-set- ting, the Redfield Brothers continuing to do the presswork. “The type was afterwards set in a building near the corner of Twelfth and Dodge streets, that had formerly been used as a boarding house. A man by the name of Anderson applied the torch to this strpcture, which burned to the ground, destroying the entire material of THE;BEE office, and mak- ing an epoch in ‘the life of THE BEE, that in the hands of less determined man than its proprietor would have ended its exigtepce. It will be re- membered that Auderson served a’term in the penitentigry for the crime, and afterwards died jin a barn near Des Moines, [a. Abhout a month after the tire, THE BEE was moved to the present location.” % The article then continues with a ref- erence to the establishment of the Omaha Dispatch | in 1872, the Daly Union in 1874, the Journal of Commerce and finally the . Weekly Independont and the Waterloo, Seuatinel. The old structure will be replaced by a brick one_three-stories high, which, however, will hayve little to do with the printing busin es: Will you suffer with dyspepsia and Liver complaint?

MiNNEAPOLIS, April 21—The first serious Qisturbance which occurred in Minneapolis since the general tieup of car lines, a weok and o half ago, took place to-duy. At1l o'clock, as the cars gomng in opposito Qirections approached each other at Twelfth and Wyshington avenues south, on the River Side 1in¢, which runs through 'a portion of the city largely populated by workingmen, stones and bottles were thrown and soon a crowd of 500 people gathered. Two cars were thrown over and badly wrecked. The drivers were stoned. The police were sum- moned, and they were stoned. Some persons received severo hurts, but were hustied out of the way by friends. The police were called from all other Lines of the city, and the mob was finally dispersed. Owing to the withdrawal of all officers from other lines, all street cars in the were stopped.

NO PICTURESQUE FANCY THIS, Plgures Which Spoak Volumes For the Gate City—How Ohicago Has Been Distanced in Porcentage of Increase. Crumbs For the Croakers. OMAHA, Neb., April 19, 1889.—To the Editor of Tue B nce your publication of my estimates of our pres- ent population at 121.4 parties have asked if I wasn’t too high. It is un- necessary to say these were residents of Omaha. It is a fashionable vico with some Omaha men to disparage their own city, It makes other men regard them as oracles, especially eastern men who come here to locate or invest. Be- sides, their oracular utterances give Omaha a good reputation abroad. Something like this from a Chicago capitalist: It is impossible to get money in Chicago to invest in Omaha.” ‘“‘Have seen a dozon capitalists in Chi- cago. Not one will invest in Omaha.” Of course this is a repetition of the old contest botween New York an Chicago, when the latter was no larger than Omaha is now. Chicago went around New York and got all the capital she wanted in New England and clsewh ere. It is a hopeful sign for Omaha. Batif the work of these cronkers is pleasing to the average citizen of Omuha, wo have a good deal more complacency than we want. Better ship some of it to anry place that needs it. There is a “silver lining to the cloud.” If Chi- cago rofuses to invest her capital here, others will not abide by her example. One eastern capitalist visiting Omaha, witnessing our splendid growth and steady advance in wealtnh and popula- tion, writes me thus: ah for Omahal!” It is to have 850,000 people in 1900.” The wonderis how this gentleman over got out of Omaha alive, .if he ut- tered these sentiments openly without consent of the croaking guardians (?) of the city. Perhaps they thought him insane and harmless. They mighthave been asleep. He is, howeyer, regarded as a very shrewd business man by his acquaintances. Atany rate it was a dangerous experiment. In the meanwhile our real estate men are wondering why eastern capita do not jump over each other to b Omaha property. Of course they will come in to buy and build when told by the so-called best citizens to keep out, especially when these citizens are ro- garded by their fellow-citizens as ora- cles and apostles. If the real estate and business men of Omuha like this, and they appear to, by the deference shown these croakers, they are not to be en- vied, “Contentment with zodliness is great gain.” But to the purpose of this communica- tion. Thinking Imight have been in error I looked into the matter, and found the estimate of the presidentiai voto also gave the city an average of 120,000 peonle, hence that based on the school census sorvative. In 1860 Chic had about 100,000 people. This was all in one solid city.

Thisis whet has happened, with the exception of one year to come, It is an accomplished fact to all intent and purposes. Still there are men here, chronic eroakers, who are cherished as valued, honored and vespected citizens. With her prodigious growth since 1880, such has been the rupid increase of the stute, Omaha has been physically un- able to maintain her quotu of one-tenth of the population of Nebraska. E energy has been taxed to the utmos Millions upon millions have been in- vested, and the gigantic work is still progressing. L. F. Tesy.
