ONE 10 NOTHISG THE SCORE] i | Time Apostles | JMMY RYAN LOSES HIS GAME | Gordon and Dreltenstein Show Up in | Wondertul Form und a Lively Contest ix the Wesult of Thelr Work. By a silugle error in the second iunisg Captaln Jimmy Ryan of the St Paul team yesterday slloved the Omahuns to make the one run thit won the game and evened things up by one to nothing. Neck and neck | were hoth contests from start to finish, and | for two days in succession the very fincst Lase ball playing that has been done Any-! where in the country has been perpetrated | right on Vinton Park grounds. When games | are completed practically without an error on either gide, and when pitchers are keep- ing their hits so well scattered and #o in- | frequent that only one run can be garnered o and hour and a half of play, nothing more ¢Kn be asked and the teams that ave doing the work rank the bunch the world over. g After Saturday s game the cranks awoke to a realization of what an exceptional ar ticle of ball is being exhibited here, and yesterday 2,000 of them braved the lowering skies and thronged the seats to see Eddie Gordon go against the'famous Breitensteln It was a uotable game and the clean ball | playlog of both teams served to enhance | the glee of the pectators over Omaba's victory. The little collegian was easily the cqual of his famed opponent, though each | excelled in different departments. Gordon | had much better control, allowing only three bases on balls und striking out six men. Breltensteln, on the other hand, gave | five bases and scored only two strikeouts, Lut he held the Rourke men down to three | hite, while seven were chalked against Gor- don. Eddie, however, kept all these so well scattered In every instance, save one, that they didn’t count, and that one time Genine Killed the hopes of the visitors by a rare play. Genins Stops & Run. This was in the fifth inning, and it was the oply time that RyAn's men had a chance to seore. Holly had gone to his base and Breltenstefn followed with an out. Then | Crooks hit safely and Dillard struck out. Ryan followed with & hit and there were three men on bases. Gordon was facing a crisls, but was perfectly cool. He put a stralght one at Werden, who hit to the left | fleld fepee, apparently for a two-bagger. The bawerunners began to skate around tawards bome, but then Genins upset all calculations. When the ball left the bat he hadn't waited a minute to judge it, but scemd to know just where it would fall. Runolug away back up the big clay bank he picked the sphére almost off the fence for an out, and from there he walked in to the constant cheering of the crowd. Omaha's run was acored after there were two outs in the second lnning. Letcher was on second, by virtue of a base on balls and a sacrifice by Calhoun. Toman came to bat and pushed a high fly Yo Left Fielder Ryan. Jimmy was right under it, but got the cramps too soon and snapped the ball through his fingers. Letcher scored. The next man up flew to right fleld. It was only one, but that proved the necessary score. Dillard“and Ryan proved the easlest vic- tims for Gordon, they dividing five of the six strikeouts, Dillard took three, the great veteran two. Crooks was the hitter for the visitors, making three singles. But an- other time he got awfully mad at Umpire Kelth for callipg two strikes on him and naughty words were hurled at Mr. Keith by the second baseman, who finally threw up his hands in disgust and despalr, and then knocked a grounder, which was meat for Captain Stewart. Just Reversed the Score. The game was a turnabout from the one Just previous. On Saturday St. Paul made the one run, while she scored ouly three hits to Omaha’s seven. People wondered why that preponderence of hits couldn't wih a game, but yesterday they found out, to thelr joy, for Omaba had the three and the visitors the seven. Features abounded yester One was a double by Stewart, Toman and Calhoun in the fifth. Another was Letcher's catch of & fiy, in the seventh. But the losers. also shone. Bhoristop Holly scratched his name high on the scroll by exceptionally fine scoops of grounders in the fifth and in the sixth. Then Rightfielder Parker caught an apparently impossibly fly from Calhoun's bat in the elghth, while the way Crooks han- dled Gonding's line fiy the funing before wath a wonder. Through and through It was a great game and promises many thing for today's contest, which is the rubber of the series. Coons will twirl for Omaha and Mr. Cogan for 8t. Paul.

The elghteenth annual commencement week of Bellevue college began this morning with the baccalaureate sermon by Dr. Kerr at the Presbyterfan church, which | decorated by the sophomore class for occasion. Dr. Kerr spoke from the text, 1 Peter i, 5 “As lively stones,” In substance as fol- lows: “The rocks stand for enduring | strength. ‘Lively’ means animated, ener- glzing existence. The two united as onc suggests the enduring, energlzing strensth | of good character. The character here described presupposes relationship with Christ, the ‘living stone.’ Such material is used by God in advancing the world's wel- Ad- “Large plans are a mecossary feature in the lives of great characters. God uses men who have purposes, not purposeless men. Plans which embrace more than we can accomplish are necessary. The pur- pose of the church, to convert men, Is not within its own power; but such a purpose puts the church in harmony with God. In- too, are in harmony with God | when they plan larger things than they | can accomplish by thelr own strength. | Even the person of small talent should plan for large thinge. That which ocan be accomplished only by a great army must be the atmn of every officer and soldler. “Duty is always larger than ourselves. He is a narrow man who does not sce It 0. He is a broad man who sces his duty 0 large that God's strength must be added | to his own !n performing that duty. ““‘Lively stones,’ as descriptive of char- acter, suggests energetic activity. Paul had consuming energy. No character can be strong without activity applied con- stantly to life's purposes. Character which is to endure unwaveringly must have an inspiring faith. But conscious harmony | with God enforces an unwavering and un | inspiring faith. Before all such, moun- tains of difculty become a plain. To such usefulness, homor, victory, are sure.” Hon.

This s ex- actly the time to plant late potatoes—the dark of the moon in June. Last week would have been too early, as the moon changed only on Saturday night.’ Weil, those mur- phies did not pan out. We ecarcely got our seed back—but then there was a drouth last ye: “A few weeks ago,” he continued, “I| went up to the place to see how things | were getting along. My men had just made the garden.

One of these extras sald: ‘It's mighty lucky you got | your peas in the ground today. The moon | changes tonlght.! ‘What's that got to do with plantin’ peas,’ I asked, dropping the final ‘g’ through Yorce of assoctation. ‘All to do with it,’ was the reply. ‘Plant peas | in the new of the moon and ve git a posy bed, all flowers and no pods.’ I waited a few days and then planted more peas just to test this moon business. Light on (he Moon Question. “But I wanted further light on this im- pertant moon question. I walked up to my neighbor and told him what I had heard about the pea problem. ‘There ain't nothin’ in it,’ sald he, indignantly, ‘but you stick out injun (onion) sets In the new of the moon and they'll all come to the top o' the ground, Thet's as true cs preachin’. “‘By this time I was deeply Interested in this moon theory. 1 hunted through the | year beoks clear back to the cays when they were called Patent Office Reports, but not a word could I find about the connection be- tween the moon's phases and seeding time. The Cornell Reading course and the Re- ports of the lowa Experiment station, also the Crop Bulletin of the weather bureau, were scanned without result. Last Mon- day Alfred Gilman, one of the best farmers in the whole county, came down to help me out for a day. ‘Say, Alfred,’ I said to him, ‘how about this moon business? Do you think it makes any difference whethor peas are sowed in the ‘new’ or the ‘old’ of the moon? ‘Wal' replied Alfred, 'I've heered this feller up at the Burg tellin' thet kind of stuff, but I don't take no stock in it. But, say, ef yer want luck with cu- cumbers, now don't plant a hill till the moon changes. I know what I'm talking about when It comes to cukes.' ““Alred slapped the lines down hard on the back of the near horse, and stepping into the furrow continued his plowing But When It Comes to Pigs. “I concluded to consult Tommy Foster. He llves near by and I always go to him for real sclentific agricultural information 1 told him all I had learned about the moon. ‘Pshaw,’ he said. ‘My theory is that the time to plant peas, cucumbers or any- thing else is when the ground s ready and Let the moon go. But say,’ he added, ‘I believe the moon's got something to do with weaning pigs. Now. one vear I had a fine litter of Chester Whiter. 1 tcok them all away from the old sow when 1 thought they were big enough, and you never heard such a squeal- ing as they kept up all night Next mornin' 1 happened to mention it to a feller from over by Celeryville who'd ralsed hundreds of pigs. ‘Say, Tommy,' he said, ‘You walt tlll next week The moon changes Monday and after that you can wean ‘em all right.' Well, sir, I put them pigs back with their mother and left ‘em & week. When I took 'em away again they stayed as peaceful as a healthy haby with a full stomach. I don't take any stock in the moon's Influence on crops, but I'll bs hanged if the queen of the night, as (he poet calls her, don't have some kind of influence in the matter of weanin' pigs.’ “I've come back to Washington,” con- cluded Mr. Agricola, "o see the recretary of agriculture and ask him to fire a lot of these experts and hire helpers who know ureful things about the moon.'" | Chiof M MAN CANNOT COMBAT SATCRE ¢ Ridioul Cannonading en Alleged Effect of Istorms. MUTUAL INSURANCE IS MORE EFFICACIOUS rocesses of Nntare Sald to Be on Too rRe A Scale to Admit of Any Serlous Interference hy Human Being ¢ WASHINGTON, June f.—-The extensive reports of United States Consul Covert at Lyons, France, relative to the value of cannon-firing in France as a means of pro tecting orchards and vineyards from hail storms and for the purpose of mitigeting or nullifying the effects of frost have caused numerous inquirtes by horticulturists in this country, as to whom, {f at all, our gov- ernment would adopt similar methods of protection. Prof. Willls L. Moore, the chief of the weather bureau, acting under the direction of Secretary Wilson, therefore has (ssued to the press the following statement “After an examination of all that has been published during the last two years, my conviction is that we have here to do with a popularlelusion as remarkable as is the belief in the effect of the moon én the weather. The uneducated peasantry of Fu rope seem to be looking for something | miraculous. They would rather believe in | cannonading as a means of pretection and | epend on it abundance of money, time and | labor than adept the very simple expedient | of mutual Insurances against the losses | that must inevitably occut Steam Engines Are Plamies. ‘The great processes going on in the atmosphere ure conducted on too large a scale to warrant any man or nation in attempting to control them. The energy expended by nature in the prodfuction of a hafistorm, a tornado or a rainstorm, ex- ceeds the combined energy of all the steam engines and explosives in the world. It 1s useless for mankind to combat nature on | this scale. UAfter the experience that this country | has had during the last ten yeara with rain makers, [ am loth to believe that the bom- | bardment of hallstorms will ever be prac- | ticed or attempted in the United States, or even encougaged by the more Intelligent people. The greatest care should be taken to prevent the spread of the Itallan de- luston sent to this countfy by Consul Covert."” Penjamin Drake Stricken. HUMBOLDT, Neb., June 8.—(Speclal.)
