She sought the smoothest ways for me

And her sweet faith brought all the

The seeds of kindness that she planted
Are blooming now unframed by frost or

Remarkable Article.

From a number of standpoints the
two games of yesterday constituted
the most remarka BILE article of base
ball that has been furnished here
this or any other season. The two
were won almost alike, and after hope
had previously almost entirely fled
from the local fans and players. In
neither game did Rock Island score
till the ninth, and in the second but
one hit had been made off Jones till
that time. In the first Davenport had
played clean ball till the ninth when
four errors were punched and Rock
Island ran in three scores and won
without Il man being put out. In the
second the end was not so immediate,
but none the less certain.
Good roofing had something to do
with the result in each instance, the
crowd waking up in the ninth inning
when something had to be done to
save the day. The nervous tension was
intense in both contests and when the
locals waded in at the finish and won
the effect upon the Rock Island sym
pathizers resembled the sudden re-
lease of pressure upon some elastic
gaseous substance-there was an eX-
plosiOn. and some remarkable things
were done. Bleachers and grand
stand went literally wild, while the
Davenporters who had been more or
less boistrous in each game took on
the appearance of having a sudden
and severe attack of the ague.
visiting Players Fight.
In the second game the spectators
were treated to an exhibition of in
ternal strife among the Daven-
port players in which fisticuffs were
actively engaged in, Ruby and Crock
EFT being the belligerents. 1t came
about during the fourth inning of the
second game and was started by the
manner in which the first game was
lost. Ruby was hot-headed and took
the initiative. Hines. had made a bad
throw to first and allowed man to
be safe, and Ruby charged it up to
Crockett, making the remark that it
was the "old yellow cropping out of
Crockett that had lost the game.
Crockett resented this and after some
words had been exchanged Ives called
the long first baseman vile name. The
latter started towards Ives, who was
on the bench at the time but another
Davenport player interfered, Ives in
the meantime picking up bat. The
two sat down with Stauffer between
them and in an instant the quarrel
was renewed, Ives handing Crockett a
bunch of fiyes over Stauffer's head.
Hostilities started now in earnest,
and ball players were very thick for
an instant Stauffer was the only one

A Legend OF February.

Here is the pretty legend which tells
why February has only twenty-cight
or twenty days. Long ago, they
say, February was gambler, and he
was SO unlucky that he soon lost all
his money. Like other gamblers, he
tried To recover it, and he said 10 his
companions that If they would lend
him some money he would give them
rs security one of his days. January
and March. who were naturally assO-
ciatod with him more often than any
OF the other months, accepted his of
fer, and as poor February soon lost the
money which he had borrowed each Of
them acquired one of his days.
That is why January and March have
each thirty-onc days and February has
only twcnty-cight in ordinary and
twcnty-ninc I'm leap years.
