there: Left Fielder Lippert laid

ming, when he appeared before the
dropping a fly and there was some
criticism from the grand stand. Lip
pert lost his temper completely and
advancing 70 the front of the grand
stand invited his critics to come out
on the diamond and meet him in.phys-
ical combat. His actions brought
forth a storm of Kisses, which only
added to the players anger, and he
wound up by pointing his finger at
one of the spectators and saying:
I've got your spotted and will get YOU
when you are out of the grand stand. >
AS he walked down to the players
bench a storm of Kisses followed him.
He was given some encouragement
from the bleachers, but the great ma
iority of the spectators loudly de-
nounced him"
Right Fielder Ives, who received an
injury at Dubuque, has arrived in
Davenport. He is feeling very much
better and will be in the game again
