The Davenports lost again yesterday,
having dropped its seventh successive
game since leaving home. The club has
been Handicapped since the injury of
Kappel and Harrington. Yesterdays de-
feat sent them down to fourth place
Within a week or two the club will be in
excellent shape to play ball. and there is
every reason to believe that they will
soon be at the top again. Yesterday the
club signed Yak, catcher. He played
last season with Wheeling, W. Va, the
same league with which Allen and Rout-
cliffe played. He began this season with
the Pittsburgs and was released to the
Detroits, when the Plttsburgs signed
Wells, of Kansas City. This was early in
the season. Shortly after signing with
the Detroits he sprained his ankle and
was unable to play and was released. He
comes here with an excellent record. He
caught more games than any other
catcher but one in the Tri- state league
last season. He ranked seventh out of
% catchers. Yak will report Saturday.
The club is also on the lookout for
another pitcher

A TOKEN OF ESTEEM.

Principal w. n. Hatch Presented
with IN Elegant Time Piece by the
Teachers and Pupils.
The most astonished man in Rock ISL
and this morning was w. h. Hatch. the
principal of the Rock Island high school.
When upon awakening, he reached under
his pillow for his time piece to see what
the hour was. he was surprised to find
that he grasped heavy gold watch in
stead Of the silver one he is accustomed
to carrying. HIS first impression. natur-
ally enough, was that he was still asleep,
and dreaming. but when after rubbing his
eyes and taking another look at the gold
piece, he found little letter of explana-
ton attached to il, he thought different>
ly. for he read-"With best wishes Of
graduates, present high school and teach
ers." The beautiful gift is an indication
of the high esteem in which MIR. Hatch,
who is about to retire from the principal
ship of the high school, is held by his as.
sistants and pupils. The watch is of
solid gold, with Waltham movement, and
has every improvement that the most
modern genius of the watchmaker's skill
can provide. 1t was ordered expressly
through Mr.. FL. D. Folsom, the jeweler,
and the engraving is part of the best
workmanship, the figures 80 appearing
on the outer case, while on the inside
case is wonderfully accurate miniature
engraving of the new high school build
ing and below it the words, wv. III.
Hatch" Nothing could have touched
Mr. Hatch deeper than this design, for
the building is one of his greatest sources
of pride. he having been very largely in
strumental in securing its erection, and
in fact planning, to large extent, the
building.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Hatch made
an address to both teachers and pupils in
which he bid them farewell and this
morning he feelingly expressed his APP
probation of the gift and his acceptance
of it.

superior points of this refrigerator over
any other:

carpets where they are used, as is the case
with all other refrigerators.
3. They furnish you ice water from
the same piece of ice that cools the re-
frigerator, day and night, and without
extra expense.
4. They are perfectly dry; the ice
chest being separate from the provision
chamber and thoroughly ventilated.
5. They are much Gle amer as they do
not drip or leak
6. They occupy less room and have
more room inside than any other refrig
orator of the same size.
2. They are made in antique oak, ash
and walnut, and are an ornament in any
dining room. being made in the shape of
a side board and refrigerator combined.
8. Prices always in keeping with the
times, surprisingly low.
