POLICE LOOK WELL.

Good head, Darnell. Never did
man make more creditable showing
out of the material at his disposal
than did Rock Islands chief of police
on the first public appearance of the
new force today. Darnell's great eye
was shown in the first place in leav-
ing the banties of the bunch at the
station. In the second place the line
up was so cleverly arranged that the
contrast between the other dimfnu-
tives and the standard sized men was
scarcely perceptible. In the third
place the line was welcomed and the
men marched with admirable preci-
sion. A better police front, taking it
as a whole, has not been presented in
Rock Island before. There was no

Timothy Malone. South Carolina
gentleman, at whom the fans on the
bleachers shout "tar heel" in yestel-
days contest at the Twelfth street
park, proved about the most puzzling
proposition that Cedar Rapids has
faced since the opening of the
season. his delivery being found
for three hits only. Finn othy
lis a youDgster whose name was for
merly attached to q Davenport con-
tract. Davenport did not consider
him sufficiently speedy and cut his
suspenders- He drifted over onto
Illinois soil and found q berth with
Rock Island. He has been in the box
for the Shamrocks before, but never
showed his metal as he did yester-
day. 1t is Just likely that Timothy
has finally struck his gait. It he
can continue giving as good an ac-
counting of himself he will do. OF
course he was very wild. ProvokiDgly
so at intervals, but Just the same he
delivered the goods with the proper
flavor when fine work was needed
from his post. And. best of all, he
was given excellent support, the
locals, every man of them, acquitting
themselves like ball players. They
dis played ginger. getting into the
game from the start and coaching one
another on bases, and moving about
as if they really wanted to win.
Locals Hit Timely.
The hitting of Rock Island was
strong and timely. four scores being
rolled up in the first inning. Here is
how it happened: Hopkins drew fout
and stole second. = Poor safed and
Young sacrificed. Smith received n
Jar in the slaves. emitting him to
free transportation to the initial bag.
Tate, with his customary good eye,
picked a spot 10 center into which he
dropped the sphere, scoring Hopkins
and Poor, the batter making second
while the ball was being fielded. Then
link, who has been making good with
the fans the past few days, wsltzed to
the rubber and got up against the
first one that Gibson handed him,

Ties the Score.

This tied the score. Smith. who
used to wait on table down at Koko-
mo before he learned TO play ball,
stood pat while Gibson threw four
wild ones. and was moved up to Sec
ond by Tate's sacrifice. Here is
where link again showed his Nebras-

bases. This gave Rock Island lead
of two, Middleton and Miller going
out after link had given two men
passes over the home plate.
Cedar Rapids saw home only two
more times These scores were made
in the fourth, Kennedy scoring Berte,
