MOLINE MENTION

The First National bank of Moline
forty years ago yesterday received
the certificate authorizing it to do
business. 1t was the 160th bank in the
country under the national banking
law. 1t began modestly with capt.
tai of $4,000, but Moline was a small
and corresponding modest city in
February of 1863. The war of the
rebellion was in progress, and no man
was sure what the fate of this nation
was to be.

Giants success. He has taught the team
to play the game in a snappy. business
like way. such as has not been seen at
the Polo grounds for years He is q good
executive. knows how to get the best
results out Of set of ball players and
still has the goodwill and confidence OF
all his men. AS a player he ranks with
the best of them. and the Giants show
ing proves his worth as a manager from
the bench. He has introduced a brand =
new article OF ball here. There Is none

YACHTS REST AFTER
RACE OF YESTERDAY
The Contest Proved But
Little, After All.
NOT UNDER CUP CONDITIONS
Reliance Very Fast in a Smooth Sea-
While Columbia Is at Her Best in
Heavy Weather.

GLEN COVE. N. Y. May 22.-The two
sloops Reliance and Columbia lay at
their moorings this morning, their can
vas under cover to protect it from the
rain, and their crews resting in their
tenders. after yesterdays race, in which
the rev yacht defeated Columbia by
nearly fifteen minutes over a course OF
twenty five miles.
The race of yesterday proved every
thing and it proved nothing. 1t was
not sailed under cup conditions, and it
was generally regretted that the phan-
tom light weather boat, the Constitution.
was not in the contest. The Constitu-
ton defeated the Columbia half an hour
under similar conditions more than once
two years ago. Columbia is a heavy
weather boat and is at her best in a
heavy seaway and in stiff blow. What
the Reliance may be able to do in a
choppy sea IS yet TO be determined.
Two things were shown yesterday,
first, that her underbody is nodded on
lines which enable her to slide easily
Through smooth water. and secondly, that
she carried her mammoth sail spread
stlf1y, in good wind, with even balance.
There was absolutely no suggestion of
either lee or weather helm. Because
OF varied slants of wind yesterday it
was impossible to tell whether she point
ed higher than Columbia in the close
reach home. Sometimes Columbia looked
higher in the winds eye, but the Re-
| lance easily footed faster. AS a dPifter
Shamrock 1 was much superior to Co
lumbia, but when it breezed up, and
there was a bubble of sea, Columbia de-
feated her handiIy.
There are to be four more races off
here and then the yachts viii meet under
cup conditions off Sandy Hook, where
steady unfavoring winds and a seaway
may be found. Then the story Will be
certainly told
1t Is hoped that Constitution may be
ready for tomorrow race, but August
Belmont, her owner, will probably not
start her until she is in perfect condi-
ton.

SENATORS FALL EASY
PREY TO CLEVELAND
The Cripples Could Not Hit Bern
hard's Delivery.

Bernhard held the Senators at his
mercy at Cleveland yesterday, and the
Blues won easily, by the score of 3 to
2. But for errors by Gochraur, he would
have shut out the Cripples.
For the first time in several weeks,
Gene DeMontreville was with the team,
and played shortstop. The game put up
By Gene would have put sphinx to
blush. He did not break in the error
column, but this was probably because
he could not get near enough TO batted
balls to get his hands on them His
leg is in as bad shape as ever, and he
is practically worthless TO the team at
present.
Excepting the slow work of DeMontre
Vile, the Senators felded ali around
Cleveland. Each Legislator took care
of everything that came his way, while
Martin and Coughlin, by brilliant work,
shut several Blues off at the initial
sack. The good fielding of the team is
the only thing that kept the score down,
as the CIeveIanders hit Case Patten
hard and often. Ryan and Coughlin
were the star performers at the bat for
the CrippIes, each bagging two hits.
Each of Ryan's bingles was good for
two sacks, and one drove IN a run.
1t looked as though the. Senators
would score in the sixth and eighth in
nings, but fast double plays by the
Blues prevented.
