They were, but they didn’t look it. Mr. Andrews officlated in the box for the visitors, and the Omaha sluggers started right off by hitting his slants in the nose and they kept it up all through the game. | p Twenty hits with a total of thirty-three bases was what they dealt out, with a reserve of elght bases on balls to help the good work along. On the other hand, Whitehill wanted to duplicate the achievements of his new run- ning mate on the preceding day, and he came very near doing it. Sage's two lucky | was a home run hits were all that saved the visitors from being shut out, and there was no time when they were in the game. It was simply a slaughter and they had to take their medicine like little men. Ulrich began the fireworks with a two- bagger, and Langsford followed with a nice | §imith, 2. single. Both men scored on an error by | minutes. Krelg and Moran's single, while the visitors | Mahon, were unable to get a start. ish; In the third and seventh Innings occurred the lambastings which made the victory so decisive, the two innings being productive of sixteen runs. Man after man walked up and smashed Mr. Andrews' push-overs safely, and Fear and Seery both relleved their feel- ings by home runs. The Twin Cities failed to score until the sixth, when Zels hit safely and Katz drew the only base on balls that Whitehill al- [ {3 1 lowed.

Cantillion led off with a single in the ninth and scored on Sage's second homer. This was the best they could do, and Papa chalked down the game in his diary with a memorandum to the effect that they would make it three straight today. Score: OMAHA. AB. R.

LEMARS AGAINST OMAHA 1 uhar and N)cholson Will Meet art in the Finals—Contests In the Singles Belng Weeded Out-Tody's Play, IN DOUBLES Fa The grounds of 'the tennis club presented an animated appearance yesterday morning, the second day of the interstate tournament, all fiye of the courts being occupled. This was true throughout the day, and the ma agement 1s to ba congratulated that so little delay has existed in starting and running the games. terday's games brought out some clever tennis playing, and the fact 18 surely becoming evident that this city has some very good players. There have been doubters of this, but the way they meet and down crack players trom outside the city and state is manifest proof of the fact. Three matches in the doubles were played yesterday, two of these being the semi-finals, and also the preliminary and first rounds in the singles. The latter were better than could have been expeced, while the former were even better than the doubles of the preceding day. Much Had been said about the strong work of the Kansas City pair, but it was beaten in the morning with comparative ease, Hart and Young put up a very good game, the former's play being somewhat of a sur- prise. The Kansas City team, Whitman and Emmert, was steady, but hardly as good as expected. The former plays a very easy game. Emmert plays a nice net game, but from the back line he sent not a few balls outside the court. Hart and Young scemed to have very little difficulty in reaching their balls, while both placed frequently out of reach. A few rallis were sharp, but the playing on the whole was not exceptional. The score was 7-5, 6-2, 6-3. The match in singles between Austin and Nicholson was won by the former, 6-1, 6-2, -6, 62 Nicholson was evidently saving himself for the doubles in the afternoon and was willing to forfeit after the first two sets. Aus!in, on the other haud, was as eager to tire him out. Nicholson displayed good tennis fi his pickups and.his net play also vory good. Austin's work consisted of long back-arm strokes and lobs that kept his op- ponent moving continually. Haverstick beat Hamilton by the scoro of 6-3, 63, 62 The playing was nol note- worthy. Farquhar had no dificulty in _downing Crookwell to the tune of 6-1, 6-2, 6-1. Far- qubar did not play an especially good game, and will have to show up much better to reach the finals. He made no effort at plac- ing, and good net play could have stopped many of his smashes. CULLINGHAM BADLY OUT OF FORM. In the afternoon at 2 o'clock the singles were continued. .= Cullingham played, but was easily downed (by Whitman in two sets and defaulted the last. On account of his iliness he is entirely out of form. Whitman is a very easy and graceful player, and is especially strong in his placing. Denise and Dickey played a good game, (he former belng the better and steadier player. The rest of the singles were good games for the opening rounds. - The results were as fol- lows: 3 Guilmette beat Chatelaine, 6.0, 6-3, 6-1; Battin beat Hopkins, 6-1, 6-4, 6-2; Whitman beat Cullingham, 61, 6-2, 6-0; Denise beat Dickey, 6-2, 6-4/ 6-1; Whitman beat Haver- stick, 6-1, 6-3, 6-0; Young beat Emmert, 6-2, 6-1; Hart/ beat Noteware, 6-4, 6-1, 5- the remaining set to be played this morning; Wilbur defauited to Haskell. When the semi-finals in the doubles were called at 4 o'clock ia fair crowd was in at- tendance, and. wers amply repaid. The match betweert the Lemars team and Young and Battin was undoubtedly the best ever seen In the city. Nicholson and Farquhar form a team that would be hard to beat. Nicholson's net play was sometimes phe- nomenal. Of all the balls that he reaced he returned all but one, and many of the re- turns were exceedingly well placed. His short arm strokes and cross cuts were fine. Battin played right in his hands, sending his balls directly at the net, when it would have been far better policy to lob. Farquhar's play was as good, If not a trifle better, than his_ partner He s not as good a net player, but his back line play Is better. Ho made some beautiful returns of balls on the side lines that were considered abso- lutely safe. His activity and strokes are at times remarkable. Austin’s play was also very good, but his support was poor. The Lemars players early divined the weakness, and sent their balls continually to Battin. In placing his returns he showed very poor Judgment, sending them too often to the net, Where they were invariably killed by Nichol- son. Beside individual play, the victory was due to team work. The winning two seemed to always know their places and backed up each other very well. The match was on the whole very fine tennis, and Farquhar and Nicholson richly deserved thelr victory. The score was: 6- Hart and Young defeated Hopkins and Me- Clure by the score of 6-1, 6-2, 6-2. PLAY FOR TODAY. Today at 10 o'clock the second round in the singles will be played. The schedule is as_follows: Townsend of Washington to play Broatch; Hart to play Haskell; Guilmette to play Rice; Deniso to play Battin. All the players have been showing up very well and the matches will all be hotly conteste At 4 o'clock the finals in the doubles will take plac The two teams are Farquhar- Nicholson and Young-Hart. At this stage of the tournament the play Is bound to be sharp and a good game can be looked for. The following officers have been appointed: Referee, Herbert M.

It Is likely that Waltzer, Keenan and the Butterflies will go to the post. Martin will probably ride Keenan. and Criffin_ will have the mount on Butterflies, ‘This filly has all her speed, and with Trainer Hyland's careful nursing may last long enough to win the great prize for the dark blue colors. If the race were run tomorrow she would be an odds on favorite. The colt Monaco has bern doing well, which is also true of Mr. Belmont's brother to Potomac and McClelland’s Halma. By Thursday th Futurity field will be pretty well known. Counter Tenor is doing work much after the fashion shown by him in the spring. His stable companion, Gotham, Is now at his best, but is not in the Futurity. Mr. Rupert will probably start Manchester as well as Counter Tenor.
