OMAHA AND SI0UX BATTLE 70 A TIE Carney Oalls Game in Tenth, |jhomeson, cf. . With Score 9 to 9, on Ac- | count of Darkness. | MARSHALL 1S FINED TEN| Omaha and Sioux City battled ten | frames to a tie, 9 to 9, at Rourke park | vesterday afternoon, Umps Carney calling off hostilities at the end of | the tenth, alleging the well known at-| mosphere was too dark for the optics | of the athletes to successfvlly pene- trate it. The umps may or may not have been right; the fans kicked some, but the gang in the press coop gave three cheers. Extra-inning frays are not cherished by knights of the pencil even though the said knights all wish | for nothing more pleasant than toil. | The Rourkes had two bad innings. | One was the fifth when the Sioux nicked Marty O'Toole for seven runs and the other was the ninth when Bobb‘y Marshali was fined ten bucks by Umps Carney. The two bum rounds account for the tie. | The Rourkes started after Schardt in the opening stanza and continued to mark up tallies for four rounds. Then the procession ceased until the Sioux started marching in the fifth, Another period of inactivity until the ninth, The Sioux put over a couple of runs, giving them a one-run lead on our athletes. But in'the Omaha half of the same round Cyrus Forsythe and Kewpie Kilduff injected a hand and knotted the count, 9 to 9, where it stood during the tenth until Carney called quits. Krueger Cracks Homer. In the fourth inning with two down and two men on the runway, Ernie Krueger gained a little fame by pol- ing a home-run drive over the left field wall. The Sioux made eight hits for their seven runs in the fifth. If Krug had chosen to jerk O'Toole at this point this story might read differéntly. Marshall Fined for Talking. But the ninth was a sad frame from the home standpoint. Krug called loyd Smith “into short left and Grover Gilmore slammed a triple over his dome. After Watson went out Metz hit to Miller and Gilmore beat | the throw to the plate, knotting the | score. Then Irelan mussed u Lejeune’s grounder and Connolly's single filled * the bases. O’Toole | grooved two for Rader and Carney called them both balls. This led to Marshall’s fine. Robert made a few sarcastic remarks. ~ Carney slipped OMAHA. nolly, Watson.

This made Bobby angry and | he walked over to tell Carney what | he thought of him. He told him a; number of things perfectly audible to | everybody in, the park. Carney has! something of a reputation of being a hard guy, but he didn’t work at it‘yes- terday, [ O’Toole Escapes. O'Toole shot- two more over Lhej plate for Rader. Both clipped cor-| ners. Two more balls. Whereupon | O'Toole held Mr. Carney up on a, pedestal and described him in- refined tones, but Marty's red hair evidently looked dangerous and he dida’t have | to spend any money. | The four balls to Rader forced Metz ! over with a run. O'Toole easily re- tired Cooney -and Livingstone, but it looked like thirty for the Rourkes as one run is a big lead in the last in- ning. But Forsythe reckons differently and he started the home half of the| ninth with a beautiful triple to left center, Gasper yanked Schardt and | inserted Bert Grover, the well known nut. Kewpie Kilduff promptly | cracked Bertie for a double, scoring Forsythe and tieing it up again. Bert then whiffe’h three Rourkes in a row. The Rourkes hiked for Des Moines last night for a three-game series, but return Saturday to resume hostilities with the Sioux on that day. | |play and won, 1 2to 2. Score, first Cass, If. Spahr, c. .

SECOND GAME SCORELESS | e | Boston, Sept. 5.—The Boston Na- tionals dropped from first place to third and Philadelphia advanded from second place tie to a coupling with Brooklyn in the lead of the National league race as a result of the cham-| pion’s 4-tp-2 victory over Boston here | today, and Brooklyn's victory over| New York. A second game between Boston and Philadelphia went five in- nings to a scoreless tie. It was called | because of darkness. | For five innings in the first game, Barnes held the Phillies to/two hits, | but in the sixth he was found for three hits and a sacrifice fly, which, with a wild pitch and an error, accounted for three runs. The Braves made their {two runs in the fifth on three clean | singles. In the second game Rudolph al-| lowed only one hit, while Boston had | a score, when darkness set in.

When Rourke agreed to sell Smith to the Cubs the deal was made for spring delivery. Smith was to con- tinue the season with the Rourkes. But yesterday ('harlc‘y Weeghman called Rourke up by long distance telephone and requested that Smith be permitted to report at once because | 0lruns: Off Anderson, 10 hits, 4 runs ni seven | condition and Tinker needs a man. Believing Earl would benefit, Rourke consented and Earl blew the town last night. By reporting this fall with the Cub outfield crippled, Smith will be given a better chance to make good. Tinker will play him regularly and will give him a lot of attention. In the spring he would have to take his chance with the other rookies, It was in order to help Earl that Rourke let him go. Floyd Smith, Earl's kid brother, who was signed a couple of wecks ago, will play left for the Rourkes the bal- ance of the season. He played in the garden yesterday. And he played a good game, too. He made two hits, one of them driving in a run, and he fieldéd three flies nicely, one of them being a short Texas leaguer just over Floyd looks like the good and it is believed he will fill his illustrious brother’s shoes very capably. 4 | recently pur-| the Chicago outfield is in a crippltd[ short, which was a nasty ball to catch, | | | | | Hit by pltched : By Shore, Schang.

SETS ARE HARD FOUGHT Two inches and the width of the court lines was all that stood between Miss Addie Fogg and the 1916 wom- en's tennis championship. In the sec- ond set of her challenge match witl Miss Katherine Krug, winner of the tournament at the Field club, the score stood 5-4 and the game 40-30 in Miss Fogg’s favor, Her return was | placed along the sideline, but dropped just outside, and from that point Miss Krug's superior staying powers turned the scales against Miss Fogg and made Miss Krug the 1916 cham- pion. In the first set Miss Fogg won with- out trouble, 6-2, without a deuce game game, She started off with the first two of th esecond set, but Miss Krug took the next two and then games alternated until deuce, set and set for Miss Krug. Before the end of the set Miss Fogg showed that her size and endurance were not equal to the strain and the third set went to Miss Krug, 6-2. Loser Has Good Record. Miss Fogg has parvictpated in nine championship matches and ‘has won all but two. Now she says she is will- ing to call quits and rest, on her laurels, The score of the match was: First Set— Miss Fogg ... Miss Krug..... Second Set— Miss Foxs Miss Kru Third Set— Miss Fogi Miss Krug . .
