The home team played another win
ning game at Jacksonville yesterday,
Browi er and Zeis being the battery. The
weather was cold and damp and not a
very liirge crowd witnessed the game, but
it was a good exhibition of ball and the
home team showed that continued
practii is beginning to tell. Browner
and Zt is each cracked out a double, the
work of the team on the whole being
above the average. The home grounds
are neiring completion and will probably
all be in shape by Saturday so that the
openirg game can be placed on Monday.
The boys tptn in QuiDcy today and play
three uames, coming heme Saturday night.
There should be a large attendance at the
openir g games, and there doubtless will
be. The boys have been working hard
and ui less things take a decided chsnge
the club will be strictly in it after it
reaches home. The following is the sum

NOTES.
Rochester has established a children's
day wien all the cbildrenin the public

The local management is preparing a
surprise for the public and also for the
playen on the opening game at Twin
City ptrk Monday.
Pitcher ISichol, of the Roc b ford team,
struck out 17 men in the 11 inning game
at Jacksonville. He found justwbereto
put it 10 fool the lunatics.
Man tger Sage writes enthusiastically
of the work of his new third baseman,
Nultoc, saying that he won tbe game for
our boys in tbe first of the Jacksonville
series.
Tbe Twin-City management has an op
portunity to sign a good pitcher, in tbe
person of Caqhman, the former star
t wirier of the Des Moines team. It is
hoped tbe management will not ignore
the opportunity thus offered to secures
first-cli 88 man.
The First ward nine played Totten's

Terrt Haute is making frantic efforts to
secure a winning team. It has signed
G or mar. for right field. He played in the
New England league last year, and made
a good record. With Pat Wright on the
second bag they figure that they have a
pretty Lot second baseman.
Len Eltockwell is hard at work getting
out his official score card for the opening
game. It will be by far the neatest card
ever gotten cut in tbe league, as it will
contain considerable interesting reading
manner, and being of unique design, will
be indeed a credit to the city.
"Farmer "Burns, the Iowa champion,
who wes backed by "Billy" Gibson to

THE YEAR'S WORK.

What the Ladlea' Relief Korlt-.y
IXrne In charitable Deeds.
The summary of work of the Larlipa'
Relief society for tbe year ending this
month is as follows:
Received from mcmhcniiin fu tini.
- - " , .VVU, V.VX,
from Thanksgiving dnnatinna ,AA S.
from Cobb eat&tA tinn- If Mm it .J
1 - . w , nvm u.ao. iu.i
Cable. $100, from Mrs. Hart z. 50 cents:
rrom Mrs. L 8. McCabe, 11.80.
The disbursements tnr fmvxni-ioa lr
goods, care of sick and sundries amount
to $227.44.
In addition to thfo the wardrobe and
relief committee have distributed cloth
ing, shoes and bedding valued at $175:
235 bushels of coal donated bv the Coal
Valley Mining company; five loads of
wood given by the Rock Island Fuel
cempany and Weyerhauser & Denkmann
mills, and about 80 bushels of notatoea
by the people of the city at Thanksgiving
time.
It will be seen from this report that the
approximate value of what has been giv
en through the medium of the society
this year is considerably more than $400.
Donations of clothing, shoes, groceries
and materials for use in the sewing school
from generous housekeepers and mer
chants have been reported from month
to month, and tbe society wishes again
again to acknowledge the kindness of all
who have thus given support to its
work.
Sincere thanks are also extended to the
officials of the Peoria road for free trans
portation of the sewing school to and
from Cable on the occasion of its recent
picnic.
Since the publication of the names of
the new officers Mrs. Mary Call and Mrs.
James S. Gilmore have been appointed solicitors.
Court Callings.
Joseph Stafford, indicted for stealing
wire in the city a few weeks ago. was
tried in the circuit court yesterday before
a jury composed or G. M. Ford, W. T
Craig, W. E. Donahev, Jerry Courtney
C. C. Crabtree. Peter Stelck, C. O. Han
merquist, D. A. Holt, August Weiss. N
Numma, W. R. Johnson, John H. Bal
lard. Judge Gienn appointed H. A.
Weld and F. H. Kelly to defend the pris
oner, who insisted on doing most of the
talking. The jury after being out a short
time returned a verdict of guilty and
fixed his punishment at one vear in the
penitentiary.
The case was heard of Albert
Johnson vs. W. O. Negus, an ap
peal by plaintiff from a justice court
which declared a bill of sale held
by Johnson for certain property
TAMPERING WITH THE MAIL.
lttera Received From Iowa by Rork
laland FIrma Rear Evidences ot
Hnvtac meen Opened.
For some time past Louis Loeb & Co.,
the wholesale liquor dealers, have noticed
that their mail bore evidences of having
been tampered with, and on several oc
casions drafts, checks and monev or
ders and postal notes were found to be
missing. They reported it to Postmaster
Wells, and the matter is beine looked
into. The most trouble is being expers
ienced in mail coming over the main line
ot the C, R. I. & P. from Atlantic, Iowa,
and towns in that vicinity. It has been
thought by some to be the work of fanat
ics, but as a number of the stolen checks
and drafts have been cashed it hardly
looks like it was being done to interfere
with the liquor traffic.
Other cases similar to those above
mentioned haye been experienced by
other dealers in the city, and the matter
should have a thorough investigation . .
It it Hot What W Bay,
But what Hood's Sarsaparilla does, that
makes it sell, and has given it such a firm
and lasting hold upon the confidence of
the people. The voluntary statements
of thousands of people prove beyond
question that this preparation possesses
wonderful medicinal power.
Hood's Pills cure constipation by re
storing the peristaltic action f the ali
mentary canal. They are the best family
cathartic.

the case under advisement.
Judge Glenn also took under advis
men t the case of W. A. Corcoran vs. the
St. Paul Investment & Saving society.
In a justice court Corcoran secured a
judgement of $20 against the association
and afterwards brought suit against D.
W. Gould, its ageut in Moline, as gar
nishee. The latter only held $19 of the
company's money and contended that the
suit should hsve been consolidated with
the one against the 'Rock Island agent,
but Corcoran claims the latter suit had
no existence when the first suit was in
stituted. M. M. Sturgeon appeared for
Mr. Corcoran and M. J. McEniry for Mr.
Gould.
The York divorce suit was taken up
this morning and the evidence in the case
