With confidence partly restored by
the games of Tuesday and Wednes-
day large week day crowd turned
out yesterday to see q game of ball.
But they did not see it and tale
hangs thereby.
KranZ, whose arm has been bad of
late, was put in the box as an expert
ment, and after the second inning
was taken out as a failure. Treich-
Ter, the new Cornell man who is on
trial here, was put in to finish the
game. and after one awful nightmare
he did il. With a combination OF
three hits, three errors and three
bases on balls, the visitors made
eight runs in one inning. That was
all they got, but it was sufficient for
all practical purposes Middleton
was sick and Tate was put at short, n
very bad place for man of his ac-
ton. After he had covered him self
with errors he was put back to left in
the fourth and Hoy went to the in
field, playing pretty game out.
.O'Brien held down third and flied
the bill, but no one noticed him much
in the agony of the hour. kebsamen
played his place behind the bat per
fectly and put them down to second
with the regularity of clockwork.

meeting Davenport first.
Treichler, with practice, will make
a pitcher. He did well considering
that it was his first professional ap-
pearance. and further had not even
warmed up.
The Seventh Ward Stars are still
open to meet any team in this section
whose members average ii years of
age. Ben Stader, COZ Thirty eighth
street, is manager of the Stars.
If the local management will take
hold of the Rock Island-Davenport
Hopkins benefit exhibition game they
can make it success. Every patron
Of the game has tender spot for
Hopkins. He is one of the best play -
ers in the league, is gentleman on
and off the field. and he suffered his
misfortune in the service of the team.
Give him benefit.
If the home players got up to the
bat with a little more energy there
would be less criticism on that score.
IL Owens would get over his stage
fright while at the bat he might make
more hits. His fielding is improving.
Tate's fielding errors were excusa-
ble-he was out of position-but his
ia 70 A no
should cost him a piece of his salary.
The ovation that Hoy received for
acting the man when things were
going against the team was well de-
served. ALI the fans like a player
who is always there.

crack amateur teams of this section.
are to accompany the Rock Island Re-
tail Merchants association and play
against the Aurora club in the latter
city July 25.
One advantage of the new arrange
ment of the team is that Rebsamen
and Arthur will always be in the
game, both being reliable alike behind
the bat and in the field, and the former
a sure hitter.
1t looks now as if we had the old
heads so long desired at the first and
third corners of the diamond.
With Tate, Hoy and one of the
catchers permanently stationed in the
outfield this part of the team will be
in good shape. Then when the in
valids get out the infield will like
wise be all that could be desired.
Hoy is always to be relied upon, no
matter where he is called upon to
play or what he is asked to do.
Barring the unfortunate third in
ming. upon the strength of which it is
unfair to Judge of Treichler's work,
the new pitcher made good impress
sion in the box. He acts like ball
player every where but at the bat.
He may improve there.
We will manage TO get along now
until the regulars who are on the sick
list get out.

Umpire Has Poor Eye.

Smith, who had been finding favor
with the crowd on account of his pre-
viously good work as umpire, fell
from grace and was roasted to q
cracking. He made a decision CALI
ing Norcom safe at third when that
player ran six feet out OF line to avoid
being touched, and in calling balls
and strikes he steadily favored the
visitors. The only Iedeeming fea-
ture OF the whole thing lay in the fact
that he had no possible motive for
doing it Intentionally. After the fatal
third Tate came to bat and knocked a
little one to Ashton. He turned from
the plate and walked to the bench,
when, as events showed, an effort on
his part would have in all probability
given the locals another score. This
gave the spectators another sore Q pc
that they did not get over during the
game.
Rock Islands single run was made
in the first inning. Hughes lived on
the only error of Kennedy, was forced
at second by Tate and the latter suf-
fered the same fate at the hands of
Hoy. Rebsamen survived on a fly to
right that Price sc3oped up of the
ground and O'Brien hit not one past
second that brought in the run. Null
laney walked, but Owens famed with
three men on bases.

Visitors Start the Trouble.

NlBlIOLB SIhEt InG LEOuDles
Everyone settled down to see a good
contest when the visitors were retired
in the first without having scored af.
ter Dalquist had led off with a nice 2.
Dagger. In the second, Closson was
hit by pitched ball, Price received
IA base on Tate's error and all were
safe when Kranz tried to catch Clos
son at third on Hills little grounder.
Then to make matters worse, Weaver
was given transportation to base,
forcing a tally. Ashton batted 8
small grounder to Tate which the
latter tried to handle for an out at the
plate, but failed. After Dalquist
flew to Mullaney, Tate made another
error. letting in third run, but
straightway patched it up by catch
ing Kennedy's liner and putting Ash
ton out on the line.
Kranz had told Manager Sage that
his arm would not hold out, so
Treichler was sent in. Now Treich-
Ter had never played professional ball
and had not been given an opPortun-
ity to practice much of late. Conse-
quently he was excusable for being q
trifle nervous. Norcom, the first man
up, hit to Tate. and on a bad throw to
first took second and started for third.
O'Brien had the ball waiting for him
when he arrived, so he ran around
the base. coming up to it from the
other side. The runner was plain
ly cut from any point of view.
Smith thought differently. how
ever, and Norcom staid. Then
Closson and Price singled and Hill,
Weaver and Ashton walked. Dali
quist gave Tate an opportunity to
make another error. and Berte, who
has not been weighing much at the bat.
made 3-base drive TO left. Kennedy
lived on Mullaney's error and nobody
was out. Then the killing of began.

succession to Tate, Owens and

ball. Not over four men came to bat

Paris, Sept. 1.-THE plans for the re-
ception to the car at Dunkirk and Com
piegne are complete, and the festivities
VIII begin tomorrow. when President
Loubet, with the premier, M. Waldeck-
Rousseau, and the minister of foreign
affairs, NJ. Delcasse, will start for Dun
kirk
The preparations for guarding the
car are extraordinary. Since the as
sassination of President Mckinley the
government has decided to carry out a
project first considered impracticable-
namely the guarding of the entire track
from Dunkirk to Compiegne with troops
The soldiers will be brought from var
ious points in forty trains, and it is
estimated that $4,000 men will be thus
engaged.
1t is an interesting fact that the au-
thorities have arranged TO have the
newspaper reporters start few minutes
I in advance. forming pilot train for the
imperial party.
More troops arrived at Compiegne to-
day. bringing the garrison up to 10000
men. These will line the route from the
station TO the palace. and will form a
complete Gordon around the chateau
Thru this Gordon none will be allowed
to pass unless with special permission
Orders for the isolation of the chateau
will be vigorously enforced. The palace
guard must refuse admission even to the
general commanding the garrison Of
Compiegne.
The apartments in the chateau will be
divided almost equally. the right wing
being given to the czar and his suite
and the left being occupied by NJ. Lou
bet and the French Functionaries. The
magnificent room that unites the two
wings. the walls of which are adorned
with panoplies of arms will be divided
equally between the French and Rus

The finest apartments open on the ter
race. These will be occupied by the
car and czarina. The walls are hung
with priceless gobeins, while the spa
c!ous salons contain handsomely nodded
chairs and settees upholstered in rich
tapestry.
The bedchambers of the Russian en-
peror and empress retain respectively

| big incursion of visitors has begun.
There is some anxiety regarding the
success of the naval review on Wednes-
day owing to the gale that is sweeping
the North sea, and it is doubtful wheth-
er the car will be able to go on board
the presidents vessel. the Cassini. from
the Standard, without considerable risk
unless the weather moderates greatly.
Experiments made yesterday with two
vessels of similar tonnage determined
the difficulties of such an operation. In
structions have been given to both the
STANDARD and the Cassini to anchor close
together if the sea should be rough, so
as to minimize the dangers of passage
| from one to the other.
The crowd in Dunkirk is expected to
be enormous. The Northern Railroad
Company has arranged for no fewer
than seventy-fve excursion trains to
disgorge themselves in the town early
