Stoux City, Ia, Aug. 22—[Special Tele- gram to Tie Bee.| -1t was a beautiful game of ball that the Sioux City and Oinaba teams played today, and it was no discredit to the visitors 1o lose it. There has been no fin exbibition in any league game this season. It was a pitcher's battle from start to finish. Both McNabb and Hart were on their met- tle, and ouly one man of the whole array, of eighteen players was able to tonch the ball through the medium of the willow. That man was Erank Genins, who made the only hits of the game, The Corn Huskers scored in the first inning. Swartwood got first base by being hit, and went to third on Genins' olean hit and scored on Van Dyke's sacri- fice, [n the cighth inning Gonins led off with & corking hit, stolo second and third bases, and scored on [ields’ wild throw to third. The visitors’ score in the ninih inning was thus: Smith zot a base on balls and Me Gloue flew out to Schoiback, who threw wild 0 Morrissoy, letting Sunth to thira base. Smith scored whilo Dungan was being wirown out at first base. In addition to the splendid work of both pitchers, thero was clegant team work on both sides whenever there was an opportun- ity.

Prize Fighters Have a Lively Mill in a Douglas Street Saloon. The first result of the vroclamation of South Omaha's mayor prohibiting any more prize fighting in that busy little burg was a collision for ‘'de stuft” between John Cory- don and Oscar Gordon in Arthur Rothery's pluce on Douglas street. This was until two weeks ago Billy Faw- loy's athennum, and the gymunasium thereto attached was A popular resort of the short haired fraternity.. Several lively goes were there wituessed, but under the otd order of things the finished fights were generally ur- ranged for the Magic city. Now, however, all that is changed, for South ' Omaha’s "exeoutive has vlaced’ the pugs under thelaw,aud thus it happened that the tight between Corvdon and Gordon, al- thoughr originally arranged and intended for the Magic City, did not cowe off there. Tne mill was witnessed by severai dozen sports and resulted in a victory for Corydon in the fifteenth round. Corydon was a badly whipped man, but Gordon hit him a terrific jolt with his knee as he was rising from a knock down that had almost finished him, and tho reforce there- u\:on wave the fight to Corydon on a foul. The police knew nothing about the fight until this morning, or if they did thoy mude 10 stir about it. Corydon was arrested on the street shortly befora noon. His eyes were both profusely decorated, and bis mouth was so badly cut and swollen that he was in no condition for spoech making. Heo insisted that be had merely sparred eight rounds with five-ounce gloves, and that there was no mouey up. When first approached by the officers he denied that he had even been sparring, and said that his injuries were several da When tolg, however, that be was under a rest he expressed a willingness to give up his antagonist and told where he roomed, but the bird had flown. Gorden has been in the ity for year,but Corydon was imported for the occa- sion. e Lincoln County Republicans.
