Thomas Jefferson Hickey's farm hands and the Rourke family met at the Charles Street park again yesterday afternoon and played tho last game of their first series in tho presence of the largest crowd of the season. There could not have been less than three Ahousand people In the stands and on the bleachers, among whom were fully five hun- dred grangers from Lincoln, and as many more from surrounding towns and cities. There were barrels of enthusiasm on tap and the sympathies of the madding crowd seemed to be with the country jakes, and whenever they did anything, whether it amounted to much or not, they filled the alr with their wild and ravenous bellow- ings. Of course Omaha won the game, but she has nothing to grow over at that, and the last thing I saw as I ambled, tired and dusty, from the park, was Papa Bill packing the victory away in an oid oyster can about half full of chloride of lime. He had to do this to keep It from drawing flies. Paddy Hoyle dumped enough errors for both teams together, and in the future ages his pos- terity, in glancing over the old numbers of The Bee, will surely blush to think that their forefather ever put up such a game. The victory was due to but one thing, and that was Sammy McMackin's great pitching, He is a model for a sculptor In the box, from Poso to delivery, and the warp and woof he kept weaving over the plate was a trifle too futricate for Thomas Jefferson’s husky farm hands. In-all the nine rounds they only succeeded In connecting safely five times, and with anything like decent support he would have let them down and out with only a little pearly tally. SCORED FROM THE SEND-OFF. As usual, Signor Seery started the fun, being thrown out by little Buckie Ebright at first. But Munyun was luckier. He made a single, and went to second on a passed ball. Then Lookabough favored the crowd by putting In a straight one over the plate and_Big McVey knocked it a couple of blocks, he and Munyun walking in with their arms entwined about each other like two little girls in blue. The next man to face Lookabaugh was Kid Fear. He's little, but oh, my. “Now send 'em over, and let these people know that you haven’t lived In a swamp all your life,”” cried the Kid. Lookabaugh grinned at him sardonically, then gave him a good ball, but instead of smashing it Fear only jabbed a large rent in the atmosphere. The next moment he walked down on four wide ones, cnly to be caught in an attempt to steal second. Papa followed with a_double-cushion drive, and Billy Moran with a single, but both were left. Giovanni Pedro struck out. But two runs were safely hived, and the local contingent were satisfied. For the Farmers, Hughes retired on a high one to Seery, but a putrid error by . young Mr. Boyle gaved Count Deveraux's life. ~ For but a moment though. Wood tapped a hot one down to Munyun, and, tap- ping second with his little foot,” Deveraux was- squelched, and a swift throw to Me- Vey cut Woody's career shert. The second was an empty dream for both sides, and so was the third for the Rourkes. JIn their half of this inning the Farmers tled the score. First Munyun grabbed up a handtul of the . United States Instead of the ball on M- arty’s rap down his way, then Boyle jug- gled Lookabaugh's gentle grounder, and both men were safe. Hughes went out at first, but cn the Count’s rap for a couple of sacks, both Mac and Lookabaugh scorad. And the excurson'sts stood up and yelled until they were blue in the face. It was another horse collar all round in the third, but in the fourth we capped an- other brace. Sammy McMackin hit rafe and nipped second by a great Sprint. Seery was side- tracked at first, Ssmmy gaining third on the play. Then Munyun walked, but on at- SERIES 5. The Book of the Builders HISTORY or mu.. WORLD'S FAIR g w\% ‘D. H.

MAGNIFICENTLY ILLUSTRATED, he tompting to emulate Mac's act was thrown out by the patitke Mr. Spoer, Two hands out afd McVey at the bat, There was gore in his gleaming orbs, and everybody felt that he was about to burst one of Colonel Lookabaugh's furniture-van curyes svide open. 5 The colonel was evidently inclined to the same belief, and he bent his supple form for a mighty effort, Mac was watching him lifted his tree menacingly. Whiz! came the ball. a ringing crack, like the however, and he report of a torpedo, and a thin cerulean streak was descried glancing through the alr, A moment later a loud crash was heard coming from scmewhere down in the heart of the city. It was the ball bringing up against the 1 oil works. \zing this the crowd broke loose rapturous applause, What & world of fun there Is In a crack- ing good hit at the right time, anyway. WHERE THE FARMERS GOT THERE. But the farmers were hot, and not only saw our two, but went us one better, and that, too, after two men had been killed off. Hughes caught one of Sammy's slow ones, and it went over the palisades for a_homer. Then the Gallic count got his base on balls, and a passed ball pushed him on to second. Wood made a single, on which the count went to third, whence he stole home on Moran's attempt to cut Woody off at second. in At this interesting juncture Paddy Boyle unlocked his valise and took out another rotten error, and the ex-Qmahog trotted homé with the run that gave the country boys the lead. Aftairs drifted along uneventfully until the seventh, and after Munyun had &lit the atmosphere Into ribbons, Colonel McVey ap- peared onco more in the arena. What did he do? Not a thing but rattle her up against the side of the linseed oll works again. In the eighth the rural boobies took an- other fall out of us and it looked like all day for Papa’s gang. With one run behind Secery faced Look- abaugh in the last inning. He thinks he sees something that suits him. But he is mistaken. The sphere rolls timidly down to Looky and he slams him out at first. Munyun put in his time feeling for his absent moustachie, and being rattled by his queer actions, Lookabaugh gave him a half fare ticket down to first. The bleachers vociferated with joy. MecVey was next, and the whole populace knew what was coming. He didn’t monkey long before he caught the ball on the end of his club and sent 1t singing over the left field fer According: to a new rule, made yesterday, this was good for but two sacks. But that was enough. Kid Fear gave his pantalettes a hiteh and proceeded to drive the sphere out st the field barricade for two bags hi again 1. Jack and Georgle Both came home, much hilarity ensued in the stands. But that wasn't half of it. * Rourke came loping along with a brace, Moran with a four-timer, Pedro and Boyle with singles, and Seery with a double. When the figures were all footed up, it was seen that the Rourke children had seven more runs to gloat over. Themas Jefferson Hickey saw it all in wild delirium, and when the last one of. his farm hands was chased into tall grass he beat his hair and tore his breast, like a man with the Jjimjams, and walking over to Lookabaugh he told him that the man who told him he could pitch was Lis worst enemy. The Rourke family went down to St. Joo last night, while Hickey and his farm hands took the hog train for the hills. The score: and OMAHA. AB. R. 1B. SH.SB.PO. A. .

T 28 PARIS TALENT BADLY DUMPED, Sixteen to One Shot Wins the Gi du Jockey Club. PARIS, June 3.—All the sporting world of Parls went to Chantilly today to wit- ness the race for the Prix du Jockey Club (French Derby), for 3-year-olds. The money value was 133,600 francs ($27,770). The dis- tance was a mile and a half. The race was won Dby Gospedar, a chestnut colt, by min, out of Georgine, Toujours, a’ bay colt, by Iietreat, out of Totote, was sec- ond, and Styx, a bay colt, by Tristan, out of Simoni, third. The post odds were 16 to 1 against Gospedar, 4 to 1 against Tou- jours, and 4 to 1 against Styx. There were twelve starters. Eglantler was first away and made the run to the rise, followed by Gouvenale, Toujours, La Hire and Styx, in the order named. When the rise was reached Styx was given his head, and he was soon in the lead. He showed the way into the straight, but Gospedar here ovel took him, and, after a short run, took the lead and was'not afterward headed, win- ning by two lengths in front of Toujours, who in_ turn was two lengths ahead of Styx. Gospedar and his jockey were at- taciced by a mob when they were returning to_the paddock. They were protected from serious injury only “by the police. Loud imprecations "against the stables of Mr. Cunnington, the owner of the winner, were heard on the turf and in the paddock. Gos- pedar, although the favorite for the Grand Poule’ des Prodults a fortnight ago, ran un- placed in that race, and was beaten by Gouvenaie. His victory today therefore in- duced the belief that he had not been rid- den fairly in the former race. Mr. Cun- nington is an English trainer and owner, who has for a long time settled in France. Gorman Was Plucky and Got L cked. NEW ORLEANS, June 3.—The glove con- test between Barry and Gorman took place last evening before the Olympic club and 2,000 people. Both men stripped in splendid Condition, but after the first round it was a foregone conclusion that Barry would win, as he was both too clever and big for the plucky little Patterson boy. Every round was hard fought and it was consid- cred by many sports the cleverest fight seen here In many a day. Gorman was severely punisiied, but stood the ill-treat- ment manfully to the end. In rounds nine and ten he was knocked down many times, but “always managed to gespond in a plucky manner. His seconds finally threw up the sponge in the tenth round and Barry was declared the winner, Foote Wins the Challenge Cup. NEW HAVEN, June 3.—Arthur B. Foote of this city won'the $300 challenge cup of- fered in 189 by the New Haven Lawn Tennis club to the champlon of New Eng- land in the singles. The cup was to fail to the one who should win it three times. As yet it has not been won more than once by one champion. Clarence Hobart took it last year. Foote, who won the New England tournament here Friday in the singles, yesterday defeated Hobart, 3-6; 3-6; 6-37 63; 3-6; 6-4; thus winning thé cup. .

ASHLAND, Neb., June 3.—(Special to The Bee.)—Ashland had her eye teeth cut last Friday. This town fs the only one in Saun- ders county that has been friendly to the B. & M., and now she is not. She is as hot against that company today as she was for it a short time ago. Last Friday, while the citizens were voting on a school bond propo- sition of only $6,000 for putting a small addition to the High school bullding, un= expectedly the B. & M. force, the bridge and pile driver gangs, section men, thelr wives, almost unanimous, and all whom their influ- ence could reach, came in and voted against the school bonds, Several who voted wero of questionable qualifications. Some of the employes of the company worked with car- riages all day. To pass a proposition of this kind requires a two-thirds vote, so that the company, with its employes and fits irfluence, was able to defeat the wishes of the people, The men whose homes are here were brought in from Central City and other points in the state where they were at_work. The cltizens of Ashland are madly de- voted to the school. To do anything against the school is to incur the displeasure of nearly everybody in Ashland. Reliable men say that almost the full vote of Ashland this fall will be against any man who is suspected of being friendly to that com- pany. It is thought by some that the higher officials had mothing to do In_the matter. The results are the same, how- ever, 50 far as the B. & M. company 1s con- cerned. It is estimated that had not the B. & M. forces been called out, the bonds would have carried three to one. NEWS NOTES FROM FREMONT.
