Minneapolis Shuts Out 8t, Joseph and Sioux Oity Takes Des Moines \nto Camp-Races and Other Sports, Omaha 15, Milwankoee 2, A kreat big, good-natured, holday crowd wrent out to the park yestorday to see the Omaha team annihilate the aggrezation from Milwaukee, anl they saw it. The gAme was not as intereating as the last one *of the St. Paul series, but was more satis factory for Omaha. Grifith and Crossley pocupicd the points for the Browers, against Clarge and Nagle for the home team. Both sides failed to score in the first and second lnnings, and the game promised to be Aaprotty one. In the third, however, the Omahas became acquainted with Griftith's delivery and he escuped alive only by suf- ferance. With Clarke and Strauss out, Crifith struck Cleveland’s love-sf-home bump with a ball and sent him to first. Ho stole second on Crooks' safe drive over socond, and both came home on Cooney's corking two-bagg er to left. Cooney scored on Walsh's three bagger to centor. Canavan ‘was presented with a base on balls, stole sec- ond, but was left by Messitt's out at first, For Milwaukee, Crossley was thrown out at tirst by Crooks and Klusman funned out Then Poorman lifted the leather over among: the carringes in left field, but trusty Canavan ‘was there. Both clubs drew goose eges in the fourth. In the fifth the Omahas went .after Griffith again. Cleveluna rapped the sphere for two blfl' stole third and cAme home on a passed ball.' Crooks got firat on Jumbo Morrissey’s fumble of an easy one, purloined second and third and came in on a throw of Walsh's high fly to center. Cooney went out at first uud Messitt's long fly to center was c ralled. Morrissey scored the visitors' first run on a three bagger and a wild itch by Clarke, He scored again nG the seventh, a base on balls, Whalsh's miss of Lowe's drive past second and a wild throw by Crooks doing the work. This was all the visitors could do. But the Omahas didn't stop. Iu the sixth, with Nagle and Clarke out, Strauss hit to' right for a bag, stole his way o third and with Cléveland, who had been ®iven a base on balls, came home on Crooks’ single to right. Cooney popped a fly to Herr. Inthe seventh, with Welsh out, Canavan made a pretty hit to right for a base and then set the audience crazy by stealing his way home, Messitt was caught stealing third and Nagle couldn’t find the ball. In the eighth, with Claike arnd Strauss out, Cleveland knocked out a three-bagger of his favorite brand, Crooks got a base on balls and both scorcd on Cooney’s clean hit past third. Walsh went out at first. And still the Omahas weren’t satisfied. In the ninth Canavan got a safe one over third, 8tolo second and tuird as usual, and scored on Messit's drive to right for two bags. Nagle's two-bagger sent Messitt home. Clarke went out on a loug fly to center. Then Herr Strauss lined out a home run and came in with Nagle. Clevelund went to first on four balls, did the larceny act on secona and third,and scored on Crook’s sacrifice to Kiusman. Welsh went out ona fly to cen- ter.

Wasnixatox Buneav, Tne Owan Bee. ) 513 FountrENTI STREET, Wasitixaros, D, C., April 0. ) In every essential particular this has been as Sunday in the nation's capital. Thera was & complete suspension of oMcial busi ness all day and from 12 o'clock o commer- cinl business was transacted. Bright and beautiful the morning dawned, but as the day wore away it became cloudy, and finally a light -rain fell. Few people were or tho stroet here was a goneral attendunce at the services in the various churches which were splendidly decorated with flowers ana patriotic sermons and songs were neard. At 10 o'clock the Seventh streot wharf was lined with men,women and child ren bound for Mount Vernon, Guorge W ust ington's old homestead, on the west bank of the Potomac, and sixteen miles below the city. Fwo heavy loads of human freight were carried down on the steamer Corcoran, The people took lunches and spent the day on the charming greensward overlooking the classic river. The trees are putting forth their vendure, the flowers are bursting out and the sceue at Mount Vernon was an un- written poem. All along the Virginia shore and across the river along the Maryland shore people wandered during the ufternoon. At 8 o'clock the packet steamer Excelsior left Georgetown and wentup the Chesapeake canal to Cabin John's bridge and other sorts with a load of fishermen and tishe women. Picnic parties went, out in every direction. The famous old dueling grounds at Bladensburg were visited by thousands of peopie_in - carria An_exploring mania seemed to seize the populace in all stations of life. All was auietat the white house. The three typewriters which put on’ paper both cheerful and unwelcome missives to the oftice seekers, were noiseless. There were no visitors brides and grooms had either left the eity or were curious no longer, Late in the after. noon the broad clean avenues were thronged and the. lines of fast growing green soft maples fairly burst their buds under the in- fluence of the rain and sun Mr. Blaine was the only cabinet officer in the city. He sat in his hotel reading and re- ceiving the friends who called. He expressed regret at not being well encugh to go to New York, but congratulated himself that he would be on duty when the president gets back: William H. Burgess, who lives down at Alexandria, in sight of the Washington mon- ument, and who in 1886 assisted in building Washington’s new tomb at Mount Vernon, was on the streets in his native town all day, telling the hundreds who visited the anti- quated church George and Martha were wont % atterd, how the face of the father of his country looked fifty-three years ugo. “1 was a lad thén,” said he, “but I remem- ber that, in removing the bodies of George and Martha to their prescut tomb we decided to open the coffin. I looked in and saw General Washington's face. The body was well preserved and the features were intact. There was nothing to indicate the time he had been dead. A ute after the exposure to the air there w: collapse and nothing was recognizable fuce looked like his pictures.” “The only politics talked was in connection with the death of Chairman Barnum, of the democratic national _committee, Pugh, of Aiahama, und ex-Attorney-General Garland say Senator Gorman, of Maryland, will be the natural successor. They untici: pate an almost complete reorganization of the party managemeat. It1s intimated that there will be more regard paid to the tariff protection element in the party so far as organization is concerned. but_there will be no deviation from free trade principles when it comes to framing the platform and making up the general issues. ~ Pruny S, Heamis, Lo T Fire in Lincoln, LiNcoLN, Neb., April 30.—|Special Tele- gram to Tk Bee.]—A frame shed near the Burlington tracks caught fire, this after- noon at 4 o'clock and was burned to the ground.

The impoverished condition of the Dblood, the woakening effects of the long, cold winter the lost appetite, an i that tired feeling, all make s #ood #pring medicine absolutely necessary.
