the standing of. Its' team and the char
acferoT the w6rk that ft has done, as
well as with its personnel. Manager
McConnell and his boys have made a
record to.bftyoud of, for. there has
never - been,, a, icinutefrom the start
to the very end of the season when
they have not been reckoned with by
every other team In the league. The
team has had its ups and downs, but on
the whole has been near the top four
different times in the lead. It has
brought credit to the city, and its pic
turesque see-saw contests with every
other team that has been in the van
has proven .an invaluable advertise
ment to the dry. equal In fact to the
winning of the pennant itself.
As is always the case there has ex
jtan intensity of feeling among
someoi me cities miring ine season
and perhaps some harsh things have
been raid and done, but that is char
acteristic of baseball. It has been
said that men will do and say things
in their baseball zeal that they would
not think of otherwise, not even in poll
tics. The president of the baseball as
sociation in a nearby Three-Eye town
who went so far on a late visit of the
Islanders to his city, as to approach
Manager McConnell. and seek to tempt
him away from Rock Island, and also
say some Insulting things about Pres
ident Sexton which McConnell was
man enough to resent, no doubt feels,
too. now. that he permitted his base
ball enthusiasm to carry him too far
For Rock Island's part it is willing
to permit all feelings to blow away
with the smoke of battle. It feels, per
haps, that It has stood by Its team
more loyally as a town than Dubuque
has. and that taking it all in all its
team was more entitled to the pennant,
particularly as it did not bring in na
tional league or Iowa league players,
for its closing gamed. It fought it out
to a finish with its own team, to ev
ery member of which belonged what
glory there was In the Islanders'
auhieviaents. and Hock Island ir ganiti
enough tOfjfftse its cap to the victors,
and to say that it will meet them again
another season.

As f itisloifcary the affairs of the
league for In season will be wound
up in a banquet at the pennant town,
early in October. It falls to Dubuque
to do the honors this year. The pen

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
Drills as a protection against fire
have already been taken up in the
high school this year, the newer pupils
being instructed by the principal as to
the methods of forming in line and
leaving the building. It was particu
larly urged that it Is important that
every pupil should observe strictly the
rules as applied in these cases, as the
mistakes of a few might be fatal to
many. The following were named to
have charge of the hose and the doors:
K. Frazer, A. Huesing. H. Ehrhorn, G.
Sheldon. J. McElherne. B. Raines. E.
Breen. L. Liitt. R. Souders. Clarence
Martin. W. Trimble, and Fred Aster.
Island City park has been secured
for the use of the foot ball team this
fall, and the boys are now beginning
their hard practice. The first game
will be played Sept. 30 with the alumni.
and the plans for next year taken up.
There are two outside cities candidates
for admission to membership In the
league. Burlington and Danville, biu
the present indications' fe that there
will be no change made, unless some
city is disposed to withdraw voluntar
ily, which does not now seem likely.
president Holland is said to be a
candidate for re-election. Belden Hill
of Cedar Rapids being also discussed
In many respects Mr. Holland has
made an acceptable executive. Rock
Inland's only fault with him has been
in keeping a man like Milan on his
staff of umpires, but Mr. Holland has
shown his disposition to be fair with
Rock Island in keeping this creature
away from the Rock Island team when
requested to do so. The hatred that
other cities in the league have exhibit
ed toward Milan during the year has
amply vindicated Rock Island's stand
against him. Lawrence was likewise
a freak as an umpire, and Lynch failed
to get the endorsement that an honest
purpose should have earned for him.
Weston. Cusack and Krieg, however,
proved successes in a general sense
throughout the league, and Flaherty,
who came in at the tail end of the sea
son, did very well.
As far as the league presidency is
concerned. Rock Island, while enter
taining no prejudice toward President
Holland, would naturally have a par
ticularly kindly feeling toward Belden
Hill, who ia an old Rock Island player
and has always been popular in this
city.

three youngsters. Wilson, Wanner, and
Eng. All are of the most promising
order, and great things are expected of
them another year. Milligan, too, al
though coming in late, has the ear
marks of a ball player.
A Heap of Satisfaction. There is
more than a grain of satisfaction in
the fact that but one team finished
ahead of Rock Island, while srx ended
the season below us. . And it ought to
be taken into consideration that sec
ond only to the fight for the flag is the
fight for position, clear down the iine.
Buelow to Manage Peoria? A rumor
is going the rounds that Charlie Bue
low, of the Dubuque team, has been of
fered the position of manager of Peoria.
and that terms have been agreed upon.
This, if true, disposes of the story that
Donnelly is to take the Distillers next
year.
Decatur's Source of Joy. And after
all that has been said and done, fair
or unfair, Milan or no Milan, we are
sure to finish the Reason ahead qf the
Bloomers. Right there centers the
one happy, consoling thought. We can
ust die from joy. Decatur Herald.
Balliett in Bloomington. Guy Balll
ett, the former Decatur southpaw, is
making an effort to get on with the
Bloomer team again next season. The
Pantagraph notes his arrival in that
city Tuesday night and says he was
warmly greeted by the fans at the
park the day following. He is looking
well and evidently has been taking
good care of himself since his release
by the Bloomington management. He
has expressed a desire to be a Bloomer
again next year and promises to be
have if given a trial. He will be given
a hearing later.
Parade on Grounds. Umpire Cusack
returned this morning from Cedar Ran-
ids, where he officiated in the Dubuque
series. He says that over 4,000 people
saw the games, and after the close of
the first one the Dubuque fans took
their heroes upon their shoulders and
paraded the grounds. 1
You Bet. Dubuque's victory over
Arthur Lundin Wednesday was the
first since the Key City has been in
the league, but a pitcher had to be
imported to do the trick. Decatur Review.
All Reserved. All the present mem
bers of the Rock Island team have
been reserved for next year or held
on separate contracts. Besides Presi
dent Sexton has signed up a bunch of
recruits.
Uncle of Local Player. Andrew Hip

yesterday after viewing the mu
tilated remains of Francis Stillman,
who was killed by a train at that place,
is an uncle of Arthur Hlppert, of the
