Probably some 600 ginks will breeze through the gate without any ac-| ompanying click of the turnstile, and | such an occurrence s far from gentle music to the average magnate's ear. Of course Holland may be different. Mayor Marshall of 8t. Joseph and Mayor Dahlman of Omaha will be the leading figures in a cabaret act previous to the game. Mayor Marshall will borrow | a Bt. Joseph cap from somebody, remove his coat and make a masterful chuck with a regulation pill. Mayor Jim will swipe a protector, a mask and a ten-ton mitt and prepare to receive it. It should be a swell act. The mayor, Mrs. Dahlman, Mrs. Rourke and a crowd of some twenty Omahans will go to the village down stream this morning, arriving in time for the game. Fight in Evening. In the evening a fight of some kind is carded. This fight is between a couple of middleweight pugs. One is a Spaniard and the other a Mexican. Even if they don't box a first-class bull fight should be substituted, so all are assured of a good time. The Rourkes expect to ride in the pa- rade and also see the fight. Last year our boys got trimmed out of a ride in the parade at Des Moines, and if they don't get in this time there won't be any pa- rade, that's all. Also they'll see the fight or there won't be any fight, Such is de- termination. The Rourke lineup is a very choatic af- fair at present. Pa wants Cy Forsythe and has entered negotiations to land him. If Cy reports for the opcner the lineup will be switched from top to bottom. If he doesn’'t land him it probably will be as follows: ST.

O'Neill, president of the | Western league, and three of his um- pireg gathered in Omaha so that Tip could assign the arbitrators to their opening day stations and tell them | Just how and where they are to work this year. The umpires who con- { ferred with Prexie Tip are Steve Cu- sick, Dutch Myers and Parent. Tip has appointed a fifth umpire in Harry for the last three years with the Central league. Gaston injured his knee the other day at his home in Cambridge, O., and will not be able to report for a week. He fell in the bag- gage room of the station there and now has a suit on against the rallroad com- pany. Geisel takes his place at present, and will remain on the staff as a fifth man. Two more umpires will probably be ap- pointed before the season is well on its way, says O'Neill, “but I will wait a bit longer before making any more appoint- ments."” Parent will umpire at the opening game between Omaha and St. Joseph.
