Kansus Olty Denver ESTERDAY'S game reminded one of the halcyon days of June, only tho Lamos lost. Still it was by such a nar- row margin and the game they put up was so excollent that there was little room for displeas- ure. The weatber was Just right for good, hard, honest work on the fleld, but at such a low ebb has the sport run hero since the catyclasm of July that but a small erowd screwed up sufficient cournge to go. Those who wers there, how- over, were well repaid, for the contest was one of the most brilliant and spirited that has taken placo here this season Mr. S. Goodfriend, advance man of the A. M. Palmer ecompany, was an_onthusiastic lookeron from the box. Mr. Gioodfriend 15 an old New York base ball writer and knows tho proper article when he sees it. He made the trip sround the globe with the Spauld- ing expecition in 1880, und his breezy letters aro well remembered by all lovers of the game. As has been customary since Manager Leadley took hold of the reins here, the vis- itors were again sent to the bat yesterday, and Jimmy Manning was tho first man to face Mr. Stien. He kept up a running fire at the ex-Chicagoan, until, just to get rid of him, Stien gave him his vase on balls, Clever hoy, that I v duck. Katz hit' a sharpone down to Day, and was side- tracked at ftirst. Manacer Jim, however, rouched second on the play. Teddy Pritch ard Pickett then wielded his tree, remarking at the same time, “I'll knock you' in, Jim!" But instead be knocked him out, for on Jack’s hard one down to the supple Mr. Mec- Gllowe, Manning was caught between second and third, and with Walsh's aid he was sent. to the bech. Of course the crowd onjoyed that, for 1t was ball playing. Eimer Smith was also ticked dead head to first, but Danny Stearns, who hasn't played with much of his characteristic vim since that follow shot at him down i Lincoln, could only pop up a high one for McGlone. In their half the Lambs came within a hair's preadth of making a run. But a miss is good as a mile, isn't it/ Kasty Wright and Frank Day fell easy victims to Colonel Sow- dors' wiles, und it looked as 1f we weren't going to getasmell. But McGlone came along with a safe plunk to left. Then, be- foro Johuny Sowders could recover from the shock, he stole second, sliding in hoofs fore- most from about hall way down the Jines. ‘The cheers of the select few spurred him to further exploits, and on the next ball pitched he bureled third! All this fine work, though, was unavailing, for Dungan’s long four was neatly captured by King Elmer. In the second, after that ball player, Mec- Glone, bad si.mmed out both Big Hoover and Old Hick, Gunny ot his base on & quar- totte of wide ones. Sowaers boosted him around to third on a nice little mt, ne, him- elf making second on the throw to head off Gunson. But that is all it amounted to, for Manuing, the next man up, went oute on & liner to Day. The Lambs, too, were blanked, and then followed an unbroken chain of eggs for both sides until tho seventh, when the Cowboys jumped 10 and won the game, How? ‘Why, Gunson 1aid his club against one of Mr. Stien’s choicest slants for a bag, and traveled on to second on Johnuy's sacrifice. Manning sent him over the rubber ona smash to center, which Dungan allowed to scep through the weeds at his foer, and Jimmy kept on until he reached second. Stien was hot and he plueged Pickett in the vertobra: with bull. Then King Elmer laced out & neat one to right, but by a quick return of the pall by Rasty Wright' Manning was caught between third und home ana Pickett between first and second. There was a few moments of monkeying, then Fields smashed Manager Jim in the back as he was licking it back to third and the result was the ball glanced off out among the holyliocks near the bleachers und Manning ran in and Pickett reached third. Unfortunate Mr. Fields. tearns then basted Stein for a single and Pickett joined Gunson and Manning at_tho water tank. Biz Hoover hit the atmosphere three severe blows in the paunch, and the 1ig was up. But the Cowboys bhad a trio of tallies and they were as breezy and as fresh as Dave Rowe. The Lambs took another frappe. In the eighth the Manning family were retirod in order, but 1 her half Omaha got her one little fur-lined run. Wright got his base on balls, and Dav his on Pickett's fail- ure to hold Old Hick's throw to cut off Rasty. Wright made a recherche steal of third aud came home on Gunson’s bad throw. It was a ¢plash of lune for both sides in the ninth, and the scoro was left thus oMATA. AnR I £ o) lssoocosnoy | Wright, ef ...

WORKING LI Falke Wrestlers Run Against a Crowd of Willing Suckers. LixcoLy, Neb., Aug. 25.—[Special Tele- gram to Tue Bee. | —One of tho most exciting events that has stirred Lincoln sp rtiag circles for some time was the wrestling match between McCloud of Chicago and Des- mond, & “farmer boy from Weeping Water.’ McCloud was too heavy for good servica, while Desmond was in magnificent trim and asaviloas acat. Billy Athey acted as ref- orce. Desnond was a favorite from the start and betting was made heavily in his favor. In the first round Desmond threw his fat opponent several times, but the referee de- -claved each time thut Desmond had failea to get both shouiders of McCloud to the fioor. Finally Desmond finored his antagonist and was given tho first round. Time, 20 minutes, The next round lasted 9 minutes and was won by scClond. The third round was awarded to McCloud. Time, 3 mioutes. In the fourth round the referee declared that Desmond was choking McCloud, and de- clared a foul, giving the pursoof 00 to McCload. This decision caused an_outburst of indig- nation from the spectators that lasted until midoight. The doors were locked and the angry crowd refused to let either McCloud, his backer or the reforee out until the match was finished fairly. squad of police appeared on the sceno and after hearing both sides of the case the chief waid he would arrest all_persons concerned if the matter was not settled. The crowd gave three cheers for Chief Dinges. Athey, ths referce, declared his decision final and ordered Uaruthers to give up the stakes. Caruthers declared that the referea's decision was_wrong and rofused to giveup the stakes. Desmond said that he was willing to_give McCloud the benefit of the fourth round and finish the mateh fairly. At midnight it was finally aecided to givo tho roforeo and stakeholaer until 10 8. m. to settle the matter and tho crowd reluctantly dispersed.

What tho Members Think ensnry for the Public Good -Sixth Ward Republicans Wako Up— Samoset's Q arters. Tho Fifth Ward Kickers' elub had not pro- cecded vory far last night before the fur began (o fly. Mr. Lockner introduced a rosolution in favor of petitioning the council to grant a franchise to the Motropolitan Streot Railway Schnake took the floor and tho way ne walked up and down over the prostrate form of the Omaha Street Railway company and other like corpo- rations would bave delighted tho hoarts of all the anti-monopolists in the country. He soared away in tho languago of a Cicero, declaring that the street railway companies had grown rich at the expense of the tax- payers of Omata. 1 am opposed to the granting of any more franchises or priviloges to any of these street car companies uuless they pay for thom,’ sald Mr. Schnake. ‘“I'he members of the city council have their pockets full of passes, but the poor men who pay the burden of the taxes have to pay their fare, Mr. Schnako held that the consideration of such o resolution was out of order in the club, for a resolution had been passed ata previous meeting declaring that the street car companies should be taxed §25 a car for ovary car thoy run over their roads. Déspita the protest of Mr. Schnako the resolution was declared in ordor, bowever, und the other side of tho question' was hea from, Mr. C. W. Slattery took up the debate in behall ‘of the Metrovolitan Street Railway company. Ho said that tbe company would put 1,500 or 2,000 men at work immediately after tho granting of the fran- chise. Just at this time the employment of that numbor of men 1n the city of Omaha would be a great help to the business interests of Omaba. He said the Metropolitan Street itailway company did not intend to ask for any privileges ox- copting such as had been granted to the other street car companies in Omaha. He believed that competition in the street car business, as in all other lines, was beneficial to the public. The granting of the franchiso to the Metropolitan Strest Railway company would break up the present monopoly in the street raitway business Several other gontlemen spoke unon the question, and finally Mr. Schnake agreed to vote for 'the resolution after it has been amended so as to read that the council should provide that the intercsts of the citizens at large should be full protected. Tho club then decided to build the union dopot. Some of the kickers suggested plans by which the present delay might be wiped out, but they decided to wait until some fur- ther developments had come to the surface befere proceeaing. Then the action of the city council with reference to permanent sidewaiks within the fire limits was held up to the keen searching eyoof the public, by several of the hardost Kickers of the club. It seomed to be the gen- eral belief among thoso present that the coun- cil had no right to exclude brick as a material for permanent in favor ot stone. The following resolution adopted : Resolved. That it is the sense of this meat- inz that the eity council should modify the order for putting down stone walk o tha where good bonrd walks now exists on resi- dence streets they muy be left alone for the present. Mr. Schnake made the point that the side- walks were the joiut property of the lot owners and the city, and that the city council had no right to take full and absolute control of the sidewalks, The attendance was larger than usual and the interest manifested in tho discussion, particulariy in that pertaining to the street railway company, was intense. was finally AGAIN ALIVE. Sixth Ward Republicans Range in Line for the Fall Campaign. The regular annual meeting of tho Sixth Ward Republican club was held last night at the club room, near Twenty-sixth and Lake streets. The attendance was unusually large, and the meeting was remarkable for the display of harmony and brotherly love. The janitor reported tbat somebody had been in the habit of borrowing the chairs, lamps and_other parapheraalis of the club whenever they saw fit and some of the prop- erty had been broken and othorwise de- stroyed. The janitor was instructed to change the lock on the dcor and take such other steps as were necessary to preserve the property of the club, After an interval of seveial moments, dur- ing which the membership was increased by tho addition of & large number of names, the club proceedad to the election of officers for the ensuing year, choosing: W. A. Messick, resident; Louis Littlofiold, vice president’ Harvey J. Wells, secretary; Carr Axford, treasurer. Atthe conclusion of tho election Martin Ittner donated $ toward the expenses of the club, for which the club returned an unani- mous vote of thanks. Goorge . Wilson caused a ripple in tho calm serenity of the meeting by askig for information on the subject of the Personal Rights league, stating that he understood that the league was in reality a democratic institution in disguise. He haa supposed it was formed only for the defeat of prohibi- tion, but such did not seem to be the only ob- ject of the league. A. T. Hays made a stirring specch in which he deprecated the idea of bringing up dend issues and attempting to stir up strife in the club. Several other members made short. talks in tho samo strain. On motion of Frank Spore the discussion of the prohibition question, or of the Per- sonal Rights league was tabooed by the club and all discussion cut short. On motion of A. T. Hayes the executive committee was instructed to secure speakers to address tho club at each meeting on five topics. It was announced that the club would meot regularly on Friday eveninis hereafter, and the meeting then adjourned. Hunting New Quarters. There was a meoting of tho Samoset club at 214 South Fourteenth street last evening called for the purpose of making arrange- ments for occupying tho new Samoset quar- ters in Boyd's theater, A committeo of five consisting of M.

Much Property Dostroyed and Villages and Farms Inundated New York, Aug. 28—~ A clondburst co- curred in the mountains surrounding Sand Lako at 2 p. m. yostorday and oxtended over about a mile of torritory. Tho rain came down in blinding sheets and continued for ral hours, The mountain atreams were scon like rivers and rushed down the bt sides and emptied into the lake with a roar that drowned the noiso of the thunder. The lako s00u ovorflowed its banks and rushod over the new dam down in the valley bolow. Evorything was carriod” bofore tho raging torrent. Whole orchards wero uprootod, barus and houses swept down and carriod from o half to a mile down tho stream, which was fully a ile wido and twenty feot deop. T'ho hotel stablo was swept from its founda. tion and four horsss were drowned. The residence of Israel Knowlson was carriea away, the family escaping with diffoulty to another portion of the building. The black- smith shop of Lowis Adams and thres horses woro swallowod up, and the entiro farm of A. B, Knowlson was subm erged and the crops destroyed. At Slater's Cornors three bridges wore cavried awny and the hotel was filled with water half way up to the second story. onty-five guests ware panic-stricken and eral of the ladies went into hysteric: fainted, adding to the oxcitement general grocery store of Jonathan Huntloy was carriod fully a milo toward the flats bolow. "The flood came upon the p eople with carcely & momeut's warning and 1o most cases tore was not timo to remove house- hold effects to the floors above, Tho water rushed on towards Averill park and Sand lake proper, whero all the big man ufacturing places aro'located. Tho dam at Kain's mill was noarly all swopt away at the first approach of the torrent, and a big cornor of the mill was taken fromits foundation and carried away. Fifteen tnousand doliars' worth of made-up woolen goods wero soaked with the muday water, entailing a loss of at loust half that amount. The sluices wers thrown open, but this seomed to have no enect. The next dam, several hundred foev below, withstood the pressuro for seven hours, when at 9 o'clock it, too, gave away with ‘a terrific roar. Tho water poured through the mill windows that had beon thrown cpen for that purpese. It s belleved that lives have boen lost Three iron bridges wore swopt away after tho dam gave way and were cartied several hundred feet down the stream. McConihe's mill, just below, was seriously damaged, und the ‘dam, a particularly strong one, broke. Then the immense volume of water, instend of following the circuitous course of the creek, spread out over the surrounding farms and destroyed everythirg in its path. Tho cush of tho water could be heard for miles and the mighty roar brought out hundreds of people, who congregated on tho hill just east of the dam. The dam was thought to be so- cure and uo one imagined that the break would oceur so suddenly. ‘the next dam, about three-fourths of a mile below, owned by A. J. Smart, who is a large manufaciurer of cotton and wooien goods, stood the strain, although the water rushed over the top ten feet deep. It was impossiblo to drive further east than the vil- lage of Wynantskill for miles from Grand lake, as tho roadbed was covered with from two to four feet of wator. At Wynantskill farms were flooded aud outhouses carried off their foundations. At Albia, threo miles from Troy,a bridgo In process of construction was carried off. The effects of the flood were soverely folt in tho lower part of Troy, where the Wynant- skill empties into_the Hudson. The people were driven out of their basements and cel- Lars and odliged to take refuge on the streets. Riley's dam, between Troy and Albia, was carriod away at miduight. 1t hasnow ceased raining. Benriy, N. Y., Aug. 23.—A cloudburstover this town and the town of Petersburg last night was followed by a flood that did dam- ago unparalleled in this vicinity. Had tho cloud burst after the people had’ gone to bed the loss of life would have been awful, Thomas Taylor was drowned and James Smith was found dead, stauding in mud up t0 his neck, horribly mangled. The Labanon Springs railroad between here and Poters- burg was washod out in many places. The lurge railroad bridge at Sogone, besides a number of houses, was wrecked ‘and crops destroyed. Part of the villags of Potersburs, lying near Little Hoosick, wus completely wrecked. A score of residences and work- shops were washed from their foundations and a Jarge quantity of personal property de- stroved. The loss in that village cannot bo less than §25,000. The loss in crops will ho a very serious matter to the farmers. s UNIFOR 1rE sov Resolutions of the Amevican Bar As- sociations on the Subject, Bostoy, Mass., Aug. 25, —President Bald- win opened the forenoon session of the Amer” ican Bar association by calling for the report of the special committeos on uniform state laws, which closed with the followiug resclu- tion: Resolved.
