RAIN HELPS OUT
Playing Only Game Thursday
Omaha Drops 2 Notches.
Denver Bears Take Second
Place in Western League.
Rain and mud are said to have
caused the defeat of Xapoleon at
Waterloo. A superfluity of water is
said to have made Noah's ark the most
nnnnlar tuH in th wnrld. And within
the past two days, the effectiveness of
H2-0 in humbling the migmy nas
. been demonstrated in the Western
League.
Only two games were played in the
W. L. loop Wednesday, and Topeka,
while not playing, advanced to the top
of the league. Thursday water pre
vented Wichita from playing at Den
ver, Topeka at Lincoln and Des Moines
at St. Joe. However, Omaha and
Sioux City played at Soo town, and as
a result the Topeka Savages increased
their lead y several per cent, Denver
took second place, Des Moines third
and Omaha dropped to the tail end
of the first division.
With Denver in second place and
hard on the heels of Topeka, there is
little doubt that the four game series
that begins in the Mile High City
Sunday will be a hard fought one.
Those who have seen the Denver
Bears in action have realized all along
that they would be in the running, and
It looks as though the Savages will
have to fight them to retain their pin
nacle. The result of Thursday's game
at Sioux City was as follows:
Sioux City 12; Omaha 8.
Sioux City, la.. May 7. Sioux City
sluggers landed hard on three Omaha
pitchers and won the second game of
the series by a score of 12 to 8.
Omaha took the lead in the second
inning with four runs, but the Indians
hopped on Willis and Johnson for sev
en in the home second. Kelly weak
ened in the ninth inning and let Oma
ha have three runs.

ages and the Lincoln Tigers spent the
day in their hotels. A steady rain
that fell all morning flooded the
grounds and though the sun came out
at noon there was no chance to get
the field dry for the game and it was
postponed. With favorable weather
and a bit of sunshine today's game will
be pulled off on scheduled time.
The Lincoln twirling squad was
strengthened today with the arrival
of Powell, a former pitcher with the
Milwaukee Brewers of the American
Association. Powell is a big fellow.
He reported to President Jones this
morning, declaring he was fit to take
the slab at any time.

TROTTERS WORK OUT
Horses at Fair Grounds Track Show
Excellent Spring Condition.
Spring' training work at the fair
grounds is reported to be advancing
fully equal to that of any of the best
western half-mile tracks. Favorable
weather, excellent track and general
good management of trainers bring
out the result of not a sick or lame
horse on the- ground. To the lovers of
trotting horses it is quite interesting
to watch them in their work-out
miles every Tuesday and Friday.
Last Tuesday the best miles were
made by Miss Pinkerton (3 year old
record 2:19), 2:33; Lucy Wilk-
hurst, 2:27U; Peter Pinkerton, 2:34;
Louise Constantino (3 year old), 2:42;
Pattie Pinkerton, 2:32 H, and Minnie
Pinkerton (3 year old), in the first
two miles ever worked, stepped the
distance in 2:46 and 2:42. It is be
lieved this might easily be called a
state record.
Gov. Mason, 2:10, made a mile in
2:29 , showing that he will be as
good as or better than he was last
season when the bell rings in July.

New York, May 6. Oyster Bay is to
have another kind of "nut" this sr.m
mei nothing like some of the cranks
who tried to reach. Colonel Roosevelt
when the summer White House was
on Sagamore Hill. The latest is one
design class of small racing yachts
a sort of bath tub species that will
be raced by members of the Seawan-haka-Corinthian
Yacht club.
Their owners have elected to call
them tha "Nuts." William J. Mathe-
son will have the Peanut; F. R Cou-
dert, the Acorn; Walter Jennings, the
Pecan; Georga Roosevelt, the Pignut,
and Charles J. Nourse, the Doughnut.
Also Colgate Hoyt, Jr., has called his
craft the Josephus.
Is there a nut called Josephus 7 he
was asked.
'I understand so, he said; rather
an unusual one."
The idea of the new class is to sim
plify yacht racing and reduce its cost,
but the owners of most of the boats
are wealthy men. Mr. Jennings is
