THE OMAHA DAILY B PITY FOOR HARRY FOURMIER. Bis Pitohing Oonceit was Pounded Out of Him Yesterday. LINCOLN KZEPS ON WINNING ALSO. Johnny Sowders Knocked Into an Un- | recognizable Mass—Billy Hart and Bartson Win—Other Baseball Games, Omaha, 10; Denver, 6, Lincoln, 9; Kansas City, 4 Sioux City, 10; St. Paul, 3, Minneapolis, 3; Milwauk It was cold and dark and dreary Monday, and a minlature berrivg pond occupied the dismond, so Captain Donnelly wisely de- cided on no game, Yesterday, however, everything was bright and entrancing at McCormick park. The mellow warmth of summer once more fmmorsed fleld, grandstand and bleacher in a minglement of such soft and soothing hues as living painter could never be rash enough 1o imitate. Not a fleck of vapor marred the blue expanse above, and the winds from the south were as gentle and as sweet as a buby's breath. The mir was full of pearl and topa: and tho peaks and angles of the gothic cot- tages loomed up over the north ficld fenco tike the turrets of an old uial castle, whileon the east Parmelee’s maples swayed languid'y, and tho whole picture was much like that of a piece of theatrical scencry. How could the Lambs losc on a day like thist In appreciation of this lovely meterological condition, a handsome representative crowd was out, anong whom were many ladies. In fact the rascrved department was a veritable parterro of brightness, color and beauty, and it couldn’t have been anything else but the presence of the fair ones that spurred the Lambs on to such a pattern exhibition of the great national pastime. Among the ladies present might be men- tioned the names of Mrs. Frank Colpetzer, Mrs. Frank Johnson, Mrs, Arthur Reming- ton, Mrs. Harry McCormick, Mrs, Ulysses McDaniels, Mrs. Tom Godfrey, Mrs, Hussey and Mrs. 8. G. V. Griswold, and Misses Baleh, McClelland, Bishop and Barlow With his characteristic punctilionsness King Gaffney tapped a new balk at precisely 4 o'clock, and Harry Fournier, a misguided youth from Oswego, N. Y., took his position In tho liule squard in'the'ceuter of the dia- | mond. He was full of hope and contidence, and prunes—you couid seo them all in his smiling countenance—and he swore that he would win the game or pitch his arm off. He kept his word. He left his good south paw hanging on the fence to mould and wither and dessicate in the suns and winds of summer. You can see it there this after- noon, right on the sscond post to the left of the carriago gate, Harry is rather a nico looking boy, with a sort of Colorado Maduro complexion aud a moustache that looks like a wisp of hay. But he can’t pitch quoits, that is, some times. Taking a pony of oatmeal and water ( tain Donnelly took his position at the He never said a word but stood and lookex at Harry ina way that made his heart beat thick and fast. He made four failures to put her over and the captain took possession of first. ‘Then Jocko Halligan pressed his stick against a beautiful drop and a safe one was the result. Then ail the ladies clapped their hands, but whether it was because Halligan had niade a bit or because “Old Cy” came out, 1 won't say. Anyway be smiled as if it was meant for him and swinging his omnibus pole he throw into it a certain veiled cadence, of half dis- tant, balf familiar tenderness, no fan, what- ever his age or condition, has ever been known to resist. The ball fell amidst the gamopetalous blos- soms at Whnite Wings' fect, and before he could gatbier it up and hurl it in, the captain was across the rubber. hen everybody shouted, save a gentleman aud lady from Denver, who occuvied front seats in the reserved circle, and they scowloa and the lady said Sut was “‘notbing but a great loug-legged, gangling gosling.” That was decidedly nnpurty. But one run was ail there was in it. Billy O'Brien embraced the Commodore’s fly, the Deacon forced Jocko at third and White Wings took care of Walsh's high one. The Mountaineers' half was short lived, MeClellan sent one to Clarke, and onnelly slammed both Werrick and Tebeau out at tirst, 1n the second, Dad Clarke, who wore his Crimean jucket all through the fray, coaxed a base of balls out of Harry, and Old Traf’s sacrificial push sent him to sccoud and an arror by White to third. The Denver short- stop counterbalanced the blunder a moment later, however, by firg Dad out at the plate, the latter'having attempted to score on & ball loosely returned to the pitcher. That was bad, Eiteljorg fought bumble bees with his club and the side was out. Denver deposited another ogg in_the mar- ket basket, and the Lambs roturned. Hurry was laving for Jocko, and he curled them around his neek in such an exas| ing way that he just wouldn’t hit 'em. “Old Cy" followed, only to give White Wings an- other p. o. ‘T'wo men out, and everybody thought the Jig was up. But baseball is uncertain, ‘The Commodore was presented with first, and the Doacon sallied forth. He handled his bat nervously and great globules of por- spiration begau to mottle his brow when he 1ot two good ones whip past him without as much as saying “how dy do,” Then he’ braced himself! His club de- scribed a vellow circle in the air, there was n fulminating crash and the sphere went out lnln‘fli‘lhu right field fonce like a thousand of brick, ‘A regular rectangular parallelopipedon ! cried a lad from Creighton college, and as Larry came marching home the bieachers yelled as if they were paid by the day. Walsh hadu’t done anything very enthusi- astic yot, and before the uproar had subsided he hit her a jolt himsolf. 1t was u single, but the Deacon eame trotting in on it, Clarke's out ended the inning, It was the same old story for Deaver, The fourth wus fruitless for both sides Traftiey flew out to Willio O Brien, but Eitel- jorg made n hit, yet it amounted to nothing, for the Chippy threw tho Captain out at tirst, and Willio attended to Halligan alone and single-handed, And 80, you see, Willie made all three of the put-outs. Not bad for a boy, was itt For his side White Wings led off with one of his matic right-field drives, & wild pitch gave him second and he stole third. ‘The gontloman and his wife from Denver began to their mandibula mechaiiswm, They knew Geargie would scove, But Georgie didu't, Donuelly eat Curt's fly, and the fired White out at first. Toen Chippy Me- Garr hit onc 1n a new spring st down 1o the Captain. It was so hot that it burnt up tne chali liue as it xped along, and it looked as safe as & bet on Tenuy. But don't you ever make & mistake, that Donuelly lud is & cuckoo! He made a backward dive, threw out that dexter fin of his, and snatched the ball right out from a stream of flame and smolke, aud before you could think what yonr name was he shot it over to “Old Cy," cutting off the littio bird by about. the thickness of a piece of ham in a railrond sandwich, Oh my! Oh mo! what an uproar there was I-t :hn.. A boller factory wouldn't bave been u ik In the aext innlng Harry was convinced that he was only an ordiunry vwirler. #Qla Cy" took first bocause Harry curled them ovorywhero but over the plate. The Commodore dvove cue safely out into right, o which Sut wont 10 third anc Larry to sec: ond on the throw fn. “Hey! hoy! hey!" shouted the jubilant lhm(r. Aud thoy kept up the music when Grifin Qid likeso, and increased its volume when Walsh did alwise. Of course Sut and the Cowmodore had ambled in. A lull oceurred when C one to Harry, and Harry switohed him off at first, but when Old Traf sent the sphere far from the mudaing erowd, the din grew worse than ever, for on this hit the Deacon and Joale scored. Fiteljorg, who bhandied his ke tapped a little stick something like an old woman sweeping cob-webs from the ceiling, made his second | strike-out. He said he didu’t want to hurt Harry's feeling. The captain, however, was not 80 commiserate, aud be added another safe one to_the lony line, ana the ex-Alliance catcher ran home. Halligan's long one to White Wings came just in time t3 spare seven or eight hundred people u siego of bronchitis. But wasn't it oxhilisrating | I tell you that buman pature demands a littlo excitement, and thero is a tonie in just such o hitting stroak as thaz It is bebrifu- gal. curminative, life-prolonging, Isn't it This was 100 much for Denver, so she came in aud took a couple of runs herself, They wero gifts, both of them, for they didn’t make a hit iu the innin Willie O'Brien hit & long o and Dad wuffed it, and Willio swung clo round to third on the mistake. Then Eddie made another one and Lohbock was allowed to breathe, and a littlo later on he ran in after Georgie on Fournier's sacrifice, And maybe the sentleman and lady from Der didn't make the earthand “atmos- phers vibrate then. You could a-heard 'em amile! MecClelland and Werrick were casily dis- posed of, Right horo Harry and_Lohbeck both e, who used storuod the bench, and Mr. Kes to spell his name with an O when he worked in the brickyard at Lowell, and Sehool Teacher Reynolds took their places. ‘The change worked well, for the sixth was a desert for the Lambs, but in their balf, the Mountaineers scored again. \White Wings wade another safe one, a wild pitch let bim tosecond and an error by “Old Cy,” the first one he has made since 1863, allowed him to tally, Clarke lunded one out of reach in the next out to Nad, | {nning on timely hits by Ryn and McQuaid.

OTHER WESTERN GAMES, Lincoln Takes Another Out of Last Year's Pennant Winners. Lixcory, Neb., May 26.—[Special to Tue B, erybody played ball today. Tt was one of those scientific.games in which er are few and hits clean, with a sprinkling of brilliant piays. And the Farmers pounded Jolinny Sowders until it gave the fans an ap- petite for supper. Collins, poor fellow! got mto it all over to- day. He gave several rank decisions against the locals, and Dave Rowe roasted him until the crowd, out of pity foi the umpire, begged him to stop. Carpenter made a remarkable oue-hauded catch, and Cline ‘muffed & fly while turning a sumersault. “The Cowboys opened the ball in the second nning, and Danny Stearns got in one of his old tricks. He made first safely, and on Pickett's hit started for third. Stafford made a great throw from center, heading off his wan, but Stearns ran over Raymond, knocking the ball out of his hand. Collins declared it & go, and both runners scored on a passed ball. In the seventh Carpenter's two sacks, Cline's muff of Gunson’s fly aud Manning’s hit scored two more, Raymoud began business for the Farmers in the third with a_bit. Brother Jack got 4 lifo on Elmer Smith’s muff of his fly and hits by Buriett and Dave Rowe brought in three runs, In the sixth singles by Stafford and Dambrough and a triple Wilson carried the first of the trio around the diamond. In the soventh & base on balls and single by Jack and Dave Rowe scored Cline. Tom- ney's grounder was juggled by Pickett and on Stafford’s hit brothers Jack and Dave sprinted home. The Farmers plaved a beau- tiful game at bat in the ninth. Burkett mada one of his neatest buuts and_beat the ball to first with time to loaf. Dave Rowe stuck 1n a singlo and both were advaaced on one of the prettiest sacrifices by Tomney. Stafford, who has been puttiog up a phenomenal bat- tiug gamo for a pitcher, as usual found a hole in the infield and brought in the two run- ners, LINCOL = i Ax Cline, rt......1 0 20 Raymoud, 5.1 1 10 3 Rowe, se.. 2 1 1 Foster, 10 Burkett: 103 3 18mith, 1t A8 1. lowa, 16.7% § 0 Stearns, 1 10 Tomney, 2" 0 1 0/ Plckeit. it [ Stafford.erxp.1 4 0/ Carpenter 5.1 10 Darnbroughp0 1 0/Zunson, o.....1 20 Wilson, ¢.....0 1 0/Sowders, p...
