The story of yesterday's game is one that will be t 1I oer and over for some days to come ami it is safe to venture that in this town it wil! bring a smile every time. When the contest was over 2.00O people tiled out of the Twelfth street park and there was 1.950 smiles, each approximately a yard in breadth and fully as deep. There were ") long visages that their owners carried with them across the Father of Waters to Davenport. Last night the sweet sound, of those two smacks when (Irahain's and Lister's bats kissed the ball in the 11th inning were heard by many a fan in dream land. Such a finish has seldom been seen on the home grounds. In fact such a finish has seldom been seen on any grounds. After giving the Commo dores three on bad plays, the only ones made, after vainly pushing the ball out p gainst a stone wall of a field for eight long innings without a ghost of a seore, afttjr having prac tically given up hope, then to walk up and swat the leather for four hits anil a tie. and in the 11th to hammer out a winning with two princely three baggers, that would do credit to any c'uiiiud would inspire the ijios't luke-warm spectator. The merit of the performance is not lessened by the fact that Koxy Walters, the phe nom. who has not yet been beaten, was in the box for the visiting team. Visitors Were UuiKtronii The game rather looked like De catur's till the ninth. The Commo doreis had a habit of pettinjr on bases in some manner, and Case's steady work and good support was all that prevented them from scoring. Finally, along in the sixth they broke over, but not without assistance. Thorn ton popped up to Vandine and that settled hint. MeFnrland and Kuhn each hit safelv and then II. Walters struck out. K. Walters hit a slow one to Vandine. and was out easily, but Van threw the ball into the bleachers. It was returned almost instantly by someone in the crowd.- ami (ase neiti it in the box, but not before Me Far- land had raced home and Kuhn stood on third. K. Walters had taken but one base and now he. proceeded to steal second. O'Leary threw the ball to Dwyer and Kuhn came in. the shortstop making a poor return. Krebs then srave Vandine another chance, and Van again sailed the ball as high as before end it was a long time coming out of the bleechers. Both runners came home but Umpire Hart allowed but one base and put Kuhn back on second. The latter promptly stole-third and attempted to steal home. Whether he would have succeeded or not is a question, for Case threw quickly and hit (Jruebner, who was at bat. and Krebs went back to his base. Weigand dropped a foul into Va-ndine's mit. That was all for the visitors, though in the ninth it looked bad when Krebs, hrst up, got transportation. A line drive, to left field that seemed good for a couple of sacks led him to lead oft so far that Crum caught the ball, there was no trouble in getting him out and making a double. Thouscht It Was Settled. When the last half of the ninth ar rived several Davenporters arose and walked out of the grandstand. "There's absolutely nothing to it," said one with absolute satisfaction. But the remark applied to Decatur, as the event proved. Wind was first up on the batting list, but he had not been doing very well. In fact Vandine and Lister were the only ones who had gathered anything off Walters' speedy delivery. Just to change the luck Brennani, the new pitcher, was sent in. He made a couple of passes at the horsehide and ended by putting one down to Wright so hot that Z T "My OSLAJlClir was the hair from coming out Mrs. Af. D. Gray, No. Salem, Mass. ,.c gentleman jumped right up in the air and it hit him on the shins. Vandine put out a hot grounder, but" it -was gobbled by ("ruebner and there was one down. Graham next up smashed one down past short just a trifle too hot to get in front of and Brennnn moved up. Then it came O'Leary 's turn. He had not hit up to this time, but he had a hit coming and he proceeded to get it, a safe one against the centerfield fence. Two runs. Lis ter had made three in a row so he flew out to left. Next it was Dwyer's turn, but Manager Donnelly, who had been sitting on the bench, made up his mind that he could d; it better, so he. picked up a bat and brought O'Leary home with a beautiful drive to center. This told the seore, and the side retired at I.a timer's out. lilt Right Combination; With two new men in the line-up there had to be a readjustment, so Breiinan went to right, Graham went to short and Donnelly to center. Nothing happened on either side till the 11th and then Vandine. fust up. was out. Graham next hit the ball so hard that it flattened out like a pancake ami sailed until it couldn't sail any further and finally brought up -against the fence away over in the southeast corner of the lot. He stopped on third. O'Leary could not duplicate his former performance and he went down on an infield drive. But Lister had a package with him and he proceeded to deliver it. II. Walters picked up the ball exactly where he did after Graham hit it and the game was over. Seore: KOCK ISLAND.

Saturday's game was one of those satisfying ones in which the intercut was kept up till the end and' then iho end was of the right sort. John Ar thur was put up against t long and ungain'y youth named Balliet. Though the latter was no novice Ar thur clearly had him outclassed. Eleven of the "Bumpsticks" hit at the empty atmosphere, and three hits was all they could get. Koek Island's scoring was done in the third when three runs were batted in with the assistance of a pair of passes and a poorly executed' fielder's choice. In the fourth Iecatur tied with two, having one in the third. It happened that only two men were given passes by Arthur and both scored. In the eighth, after a long, succession of 0's on the scoreboard. Lister planked out a two-bagger and Dickey dupli cated the feat, bringin,' him in. Score: KOCK ISLAND. AB. K. II. P. A.E.

Xtes of the Diamond- The Koek Island team, having an pen date today that. could not be used in playing off a jMstponed game. went to Clinton to play an exhibition contest with the husky Independents of that city. A new third baseman, William Han- diboe, has. been signed by Dubuque. 11 audi hoe hails from Washington. D. C, and is touted as the fastest semi professional player in that city. Dickey was kept out of the game yesterday by temiwirarv illness. Lati mer filled the osition in an accepta ble manner. J. L. Terree, of Maroa, 111., has been igned by Springfield to play first and catch. Oluc Neal, ol t. I.Iino, lias also been secured to cover short. Manager Bolt Is after a pitcher nam ed Il 1 cross, now plaxing withCairo n the K. I. T. league. Umpire Draig, who was with the Three-Eye. is now working In the Northern league. Umpire McNamara, who came here from the Eastern league and was let out, is now in the Central. The Bloomington iascb;ill dope in the Chicago papers yesterday con tained the information that Koekford is disgusted with the league and will likely drop out of it at the end of the present sesison. It is to be regretted. issuining that the city really means to quit, that things have come to that pass. But why not own up to the truth and admit that the league man agement is disgusted because of the lack of patronage and is tired of longer digging up to support a team? We hae had our last look at Bloom ington and Decatur and Springfield comes to play its closing engagement of the vear at this place, beginning tomorrow. There is a long series on the road ahead of the team immedi ately fidlowing the' Springfield series. 'The next home series does not begin till Sept. 3. when we close the sea.-on with Cedar Kapids, Dubuque. Koek ford and Davenport. In the menn- lime the team jumps nil about the country. Rock Island will not meet Bloomington or Decatur again this season. t crave mem mun a neany farewell. There are other teams in the league that we would rather havt won from than Decatur. The team should be encouraged in its race to catch Bloom ington ami thus make an interesting finish to the season. The Decatur men are truly said to be gentlemen. 'The only act of row dyism was that of K. Walters when he struck Umpire Hart with the ball, for which he was fined, lie had no kick, for he touched Dickey exactly on top of the sack. Manager McFar land did not do any "beefing" about it. Art Krueger, formerly with Koek ford and now in the California league, is said to be slated as a member of the all-star team of the Pacific coast that at the end of the- season will go to Australia and New Zealand to play exhibition games. There seems to be no doubt that Big lie" Elliott will play in one of the big leagues next year. They are talking at Sprinnfield about signing Victor King, the Bloom ington man formerly with Davenport, and Duval. A mateor Gamen The Woodman office team played with the Deere & Mansur team Satur day afternoon at Athletic park. Mo bile, and the Koek Islanders carried o)T the honors, the score being 5 to 2.

MANY GO TO SPEND DAT AT THE ILLINOIS CAPITAL The Koek Island road took out a good-sized excursion to Springfield Saturday night, about 250 leaving this city and Moliue to spend the day with the boys of the Cth regiment at camp and to see the sights of the capital. It was one of the most or derly Saturday night excursions ever run out of the city, say the railroad men. It was also one of the best equipped. Seven cars were in the train, two being vhair cars and the other high back day conches. The train left here late in the evening and irrived at Springfield about 4:30 in the morning. A pleasant day was put in and the return was made under favorable circumstances, the train reaching this city at 3 a. m. today. Violent Attack of Diarrhoea Cure I Chainberlalu'a Chollo.
