By ALEX. It came with an awful jolt and the dull "thickening sud" which accompanied it clid not stop resounding' until the Tigers had dropped from third position which they so proudly gained and occupied for one day following their dot cat of the Indians, Booster day into the first place honors of the at Tiger Park. Sunday, August 29th LINCOLN vs. OMAHA GAME AT 3:00 P. M.

LINCOLN vs. OMAHA Aug. 29-30 second divslon. It all came ubout through the taking of a doubie bill by the fast travelling Soos in their last appearance of the season yesterday afternoon. The flret defeat was Inexcusable from the locals standpoint, for two of the best hitters of the team, Harry Williams and Heinia Schreiber stood up to the plate and allowed Manager-Pitcher Harry Caspar to lay three plate splitting balls iu the middle and then walked back, just at the time when we had two men on bases and only one out.

The count of the flrst game was 6 to a and the second 9 to 2. "Deac" Meyers -from -Gernuintown in the box for the Tigers in the second contest and did not show near the class that he exhibited on his previous trial with the "Westerners. He was pulled in the third innins and Hoffman who started the nrst contest was sent in to work for him. Hoffman was pulled out of the first game in the second after the Soos had secured a lead of three runs He pitched good ball in the second game, but the handicap under which he was laboring could not be overcome by his teammates. Barney Scbreiber who succeeded him in the first contest was in foim, only one bad break being slipped over on him and that was the steal home of George Watson in the sixth frame.

They started scoring in the flrst inning: of the first game by counting: one. They added two in the second and then Hoffman was yanked and Barney Schreiber sent in. They garnered two off him in the third and another in the sixth. Cosgrove led oft by being safe at second on an error by Wiliams. He scored on Callahan's single to left.

An infield hit by Watson and a double by Crosby, an error by Yantz and a sacrifice fly scored two more, in the second. Two singles a sacrifice and a double by Hensling scored two more in the third -while a double by Watson a sacrifice and a steal of home counted their last. "With two down in the sixth, Morse singled to left. Williams doubled and Schreiber doubled followed by a single by Smith counted three.for the locals. A double by Barney Schreiber an out by Wolfe and a single by McGaffigan counted another in the seventh, in the ninth Lloyd singled, took second on a wild pitch 0nd scored on McGafti- gan's single to center.

The second game was a massacre. In fact it was pitiful to cast your lamps on. It started off in the following manner. Cosgrove was safe at second when Wolfe dropped his high fly. He took third on a wild pitch and scored on an infield hit by Lejeune.

The Big Frenchman stole second and then two passes and a hit batsman scoi-ed him. The third inning was even worse. Callahan walked. L.ejeuue "singled and Kane singled. Hensling fanned.

Watson walked and Davy kicked in with a boot on grounder. Caspar singled counting up to this time, Callahan, Lejeune, Kane, Watson, and Donnelly. Cooney popped out to Then came the bad part. Cosgrroi singled to right and scored when Morse let go of a wild heave to McGaffigan at second, the ball rolling cloar into left field. Previously Caspar had scored.

The Tigers came back with one in the second. A double by a stolen base" and a peg to third by Donnelly counted. Their next feeble attempt carne in the sixth. McGaffigan singled. Morse fouled out.

McGaffigan stole third and ecored on a single by Williams. The final at home series of the 1915 season opens today with Omaha. ANOTHER FOR WOLVES. Hand the Boosters a. Third Beating But Chasing In Three In the i Wichita, Aug.
