THEY LEAVE FOR HOME TODAY Illcks Pilches MiiKnUlcent null and Holds DriiTfr Tilth Girrpl In One Inning I'lnr Errorless Game. OICIaAHOMA C1TV. April l.V-(Special Telegram.) Fielding a perfect same, outhlltlng the Glrzzllcs more than two to one, playing Inside bait and stealing bases successfully, Omaha closed Its preseason schedule today In a blaxo of Klory.

winning the third victory over the western league champions, 6 to 1, While tho Hoiirkn hammered both Hng-nrman and Harris hard, little Harry Illcks was Invincible In the pinches, except In the tight! and had he gotten by that one bnd spot, would have duplicated Closman'a feat of blanking the Hears. After Spahr had been retired at first Jn the eighth Inning, Harris hit a slow rolling grounder towards third which ho beat out to first In spite of a fast play by Grubb. Kane took care of Manny, but Cassldy dumped a clean hit between center and left fields which neither Coyle nor Thomsson could get under. Chnn-nell then cracked single to left, counting Harris with Denver's only marker. Oninlin Scores Early.

Omaha begun registering early. Kane hit to left, advanced on Ornbb's and took third on a passed ball when Hagarman crossed signals with Bpahr. He scored In a walk when Johnson hit to left. Tho third round was productive of two more. Justice opened by beating out a bunt for a hit.

He stole second and went to third while Hgarman was catching Coyle at first. Thomason drew a pass. Justice went home on Congal- ton's long sacrifice fly to center and Thomason counted on ICane's double to center. Three moro In the sixth were the last for Omaha. With ono In the discard Grubb hit to left.

Johnson followed with one to right, Qrubb going to third. John- pon pilfered second and scored with Qrubb when Schlpke singled to left Bchlpke stole second and third and beat the throw of Illcks' grounder to the Plate. Tho Rourkes had another excellent opportunity to add to their count In tho eighth when three men were on banes "with only ono gone, Johnson being hit by a pitched ball. Bchlpke on ft hit and Hicks, through error of Dutcher, but Justice funned and Coyle filed out to Channel). oak 1,1 ke Worn, Something seems radlcully wrong with the Qrlzilles, for thero were many plays that might bo listed as solid ivories Illcks caught Mathews napping at first in tho fifth Inning ufter he had opened on a clean single.

This probably cost the Champions a tally, for Bpahr followed by driving one against the right field fence for two sacks. In tho seventh Fisher was caught at tho plato, straight up. Nor were all tho bones confined to buse running. Justice was utile to steal third In the third, whence he scored, simply because Hagarman mude a play to first to catch Coyle and made It so dellborutoly Justlco could doublo back. Had handling of the ball allowed Johnson and Bchlpke to ileal In the sixth, nnd failed to catch Qrubb between third and home.

President McOlll was on the bench with Manager Hendricks and both were keenly disappointed nt the mlnuer In which their men played today. Omaha leaves for homo Monday noon after stay of twenty-flvo days here. It was announced after the game that Den ver and Lincoln would remain for exhlbi tlon games Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, leaving Thursday for To peka and Wichita, respectively, to open the Wostern league season Friday.

The former two have been regu lars on tho team for two years and Has well and Boiling are freBhmen with good reimtatlons.

Btoikcy Is the most likely candidate for backstop honors, although hn has a formidable rival In waller, tho foot ball star of last fall.

Society now Is working toward the perfection of the Individual man, and after that Is reached restoration probably will be Bin." Prof. Fling made these statements to the business men present at the dinner In order to explain, before telling of his exhaustive researches In the history of the French revolution, why history Is "as necessary as banking and railroad Ing." "Profiting by experiences of the past Is tho only means of development for the Individual human," was his as sertlon.

"The object of all literature, painting, sculpture and music Is to create strength of the human personality." said he. "It Is to allow us to live togothor moro effectively. The work of all Is the framework to croate the highest type of human, and the truthful recording of this work offers the experience of tho human race that Is needed by the man of today, and tho future. The purpose of history Is to develop a historic con sclousne.Ns. The greatest nation Is that which pays mose attention to history.

Prof. Fling then told of Irksome In Mstlgatlons covering periods of yeaM made by historians, In order to establish single facts. Ho told of some of his own experiences In getting data on his history of the French revolution, the full record of which, he said, has not yet btcn told and will not bo for years to come.

LARGE GANGS FOR MONDAY Relief Boxes Are llolnir Dnlly Received from Mnny Neighboring Towns Mnny Relief Accounts Are "Closed." The work of rebuilding nnd repairing homes under the general direction of the relief committee will begin In real earnest on fifteen or twenty homes In the tornado-swept district this morning, and if the weather permits the gang of carpenters expect to make great headway during the week In this work. Ten gangs of carpenters, a total of fifty men, nre on tho ground building and repairing In groups of five men each. A smaller number of enrpcuters were nt work on this Friday.

A good deal of the work Monday will be In the vicinity of Grant street, where the tornado destroyed and partially destroyed mnny homes. These carpenters, U'nrlclnir llnrter llio tHrfntlnn nnrt nn thf Jl vii in nn I rue, i uilliiu nr. uv i pair work on partially destroyed homes, and In some cases where the homo was totally destroyed the committee, with the help and co-operation of tho owner, Is building a new home. The so-called financial aid of the committee to storm victims Is not given In the way of money, but Is given In lumber nnd carpenter work. Thus, Instead of giving a man $250 In cash when the committee finds that Is what It will take to repair his home, the committee appropriates that much to be used In buying lumber for tho work and" paying the force of carpenters employed on It.

Tho requisitions at tho Auditorium Frl-day were heavy, although a great mnny were marked, und many others from now on will be marked, with tho word.s. Close this Thnt means that there lire to be no more supplies Issued to tho party whose account bears this advice. Tho Idea Is that gradually those who have their Jobs hack nnd nre comfortably housed shull bo dropped off the list nt the relief station and shall be thrown upon their own resources again.

Ralston Loss Was Very Heavy It has been said thut In the magnitude of Omnhu's disaster the loss suffored bv the suburb of Ralston has been to some extent overlooked by Omul. a people. Considering the size of the town, which has a population of 450, the loss of property und lives was enormous. Muyor C.

M. Skinner of Ralston says that besides the loss of eight lives and the serious of twenty persons, Ralston suffered a total loss, as nearly as It can now lie estimated, of 1221,009 In the destruction of property. This loss ho Itemizes ns follows: Personal property 13.WJ0 Residences Business property ffM) Factories Total The tornado has thrown 200 men out cf work In Ralston, according to Mayor Skinner. Many of these were laborers skilled in their particular line In the various fuctorles, such as tho Omaha Furniture Manufacturing company, the Brown Truck compuny and tho Howard Stovo works. The Omaha Excelsior the Issue of April 12 says: "The working people and the -m-ployes of Ralston aro willing to bear heavy burdens and do all in their power to regain their smalt earnings and put the town on Its feet aguln, but the loal Is too great for them to bear alone.

The village Itself has no resources upon which to draw: It cannot rebuild It. "fit Therefore we must rally to the support of Ralston, realizing that It needs as sistance und that Immediately. "If the factories can be rebuilt the men who are dependent on them for support will huve the opportunity to (am a live.

The board and the contractors are standing on their last offers of 163.000 and $73,000. respectively.
