Notes OF the Diamond.
As referred to yesterday. O'Brien,
the new third baseman, has arrived.
He will play today.
Rebssmen's work behind the bat
was the feature yesterday. He was
cool ss a cucumber all through the
struggle and showed himself q gen.
eral at critical moments. He hit the
ball, too.
Treichler, the new pitcher, is a
tribe wild as yet. He is working out
the kinks, however. and will probably
be able to do the throwing tomorrow.
Three errors by Kennedy is bad
news for the folks at home. Snapper
is one of the fastest infelders in the
league, but he takes lots of chances.
late was the only man on the Rock
Island team who did not get a hit
yesterday. Hard luck, Harry.
Kranz is booked to pitch today.
Norcom and Hale, of Cedar Rapids,
are both part Indian.
Manager Harry Sage said Monday
that his team would start playing
winning ball before the week was out.
And doc" guessed right the very
first time.
Girls. remember you are admitted
free tomorrow. Go out and cheer
the boys along with your smiles.
Ladies' day tomorrow.
Sage is not making many mistakes
in the new men he has been selecting.
Rebsamen is a man to be counted
on at every stage of the game. He

pitchers, whether he hits safely or
not.
The way Rebssmen goes after the
ball when ct bat is enough to give
the opposing pitcher nervous pros
tration.
Even the Davenport papers are be-
ginning IL chide Carther Evers for |
his bad temper.
Davenport patrons of the game have |
petitioned President Sexton for the re-
instatement of Umpire +. b. Voris, |
who has been suspended.
The good results of Mullaney's field |
captaincy are beginning to be shown
at all points of the game.
The old head work of Mullaney and
Rebsamen was shown at critical
times. 1t pulled the locals cut of
tight places in two innings-and
saved the game at last.
If indianapolis goes up and thus
disrupts the Western association
there will be plenty of players in the
market-and Rock Island may get its
old fsvorite, Bey. 1t Is to be hoped,
however. that the Western will stick
it out.
A movement is on foot to have
an exhibition game for the
benefit of Fielder Hopkins the next
time the two teams meet. 1t is n
worthy proposition and one that all
patrons of the game would cheerfully
to.
When Rock Island was here and
President Sexton came down to in
Vestigate Umpire Camp the Rock
Island men sustained the umpire and
he president. Now they have Camp
in that section of the coun-
.ry. and the roar that is coming from
he Rock Island players and the Rock
Island papers can be heard through
,ut the length and breadth of the cir
