Base Hits

Today's game was postponed on ac-
count of wet grounds. Rockford will
be here tomorrow.
Tom News, of Evansville. has canned
Mike Jacobs. the once wonder with
the stick. Jacobs and News have been
a outs all season, and he was releas-
ed for the good of the team.
Hughca, the Aledo man whom Rock
Island failed to secure before Dubuque
did, is playing second base and making
Il good record. He was in evidence yes
terday with run. two hits. four put
outs, three assists and no error.
Mike Jacobs. the former Davenport
shgrtstop, who began this season with
Evansville in the Central league, has
been signed by Kansas City in the
Western league. with which team he
played for a time after he had tried
the big league.
Manager Mcfarland of the Commo-
dorcs has new shortstop. He is
George Seobold. comes from Milwau-
'kee, and is well recommended. He
has PLAYED with some of the WisCon-
sin leaguers on the team, and it is
their opinion that he should make
good.
Bewer, the left fielder for the tail
epders, yesterday played almost the
entire game for his team. He made
no less than seven put-outs, some of
them hard chances, particularly with
the field in the condition il was, and
made in addition two assists in which
he made beautiful throws TO the in
field Gray, on the other hand, did
poorly, and with Ave chances made
two errors.
The Joliet papers say that the game

Cedar Rapids at Bloomington.
Out of the charity of our hearts We
say it,that there is no team thatt we
had rather lose to, if lose we must,
than to Dubuque. Dubuquc's need is
greater than ours. Therefore the
fans were not so very sorry yesterday
afternoon when we threw one to the
tail-enGers.
The majority would have preferred
to have given away weekday game
for the habit of losing Sundays seems
to be growing upon the locals, but
still other consolation is to be had in
rejecting that it was not much of a
match anyway, and the honor, if il
had been won would not have been
anything to brag about.
The rain kept many away and the
crowd was the smallest that has at
tended a Sunday game here during
the season, which was more luck.
Then there were about as many Du-
hand and the visiting fans were so
surprised and pleased that there was
real pleasure in watching their an
tics. The eXcursionists from Dubuque
were strongly in evidence, and it must
be said that many of them had their
hammers out in the beginning But as
the visitors got the lead in the first
and kept it throughout the winners
Jared very well generally at the hands
of their fellow townsmen.
Luck Figured.
The Uane WAS a toss nm with the
diamond and the ball in the condition
that prevailed. Fer the first four in
ings the rain fell steadily and the dia-
mond was slippery, while the grass
was wet in the outfield. After one or
two losses the ball got in the grass
anG then it became wet and slippery
50 that the pitchers could not control
it, and the batters had to meet it
squarely or it would slip off into a
foul. Out in the field the players fell
down and rolled about, while base
running was Il laborious operation.
Neither side got an earned run.
Rock Island batted the ball the hard
est, but failed to bunch them and
would not have scored had it not been
for dumb play in left field on the
part of the visitors when Lippert,
BeweT and Carr all wanted to catch
the ball and nobody did it. That was
in the fourth inning, and it would
have made the third out but as it
was DOnnelly scored. Rock Island
had men on bases every inning but
the ninth, and frequently had men on
third waiting for the hit that never
came

inning, when Rock Island tied and
forged ahead. Case pitched a steady
game for Rock Island and held Du-

were of the three-bag variety and one
was a two-bHse hit. ISbeli, brother

and passed five to base. He was a

A Deed and a Word.
(CIarles Mackay.

A traveller on the dusty road
StreWed acornS on the lea:
And one took root and sprouted up,
And grew into q tree,
Love sought its shade, at evening
time,
To breathe hls early vows;
And age was pleased, in heats OF
nOch,
To bask beneath its boughs;
The dormouse loved its tangling
twlgs,
The birds sweet music bore;
1t stood glory in its place,
A blessing evermore.
A little sprIg had lost It's way amid
the grass and fern,
A passing stranger scoOped well
where weary men nigh turn;
He walled it IN, and hung with care
aladle at the brink;
He thought not of the deed he did.
butjudged that all might drink.
He paused again, and 10! the well.
by summer never dried,
Had cooled ten thousand parching
tongues, and saved life beside
A dreamer dropped a random
thought;
Twas old, and yet twas new;
A simple fancy of the brain,
But strong in being true.
1t shone upon genial mind,
And, loi its light became
A lamp Of life, ii beacon ray,
A monitory flame;
The thought was small; It's issue
great;
A watch-f fire on the hill;
1t sheds its radiance far adown,
And cheers the valley still.
A nameless man, amid a crowd thai
thronged the daily mart,
Let fall a word of hope and love, I'M
studied, from the heart;
A whisper of the tumult thrown, &
transitory breath
1t raised q brother from the dust, i
saved a soul from death.
o germl, o fount! o word of love
O thought at random cast!
Ye were but little at the first, bu
mighty at the last.

HAD NEVER SEEN TRAIN.
AsType Of Rustic Simplicity Brought
to Prison.

A negro named John Young, sent
to the penitentiary for a term Of two
years from Noxubee county, was
brought to the prison office this
morning by Assistant Travelling Ser
geant McCaskill.
Young had never before seen rail
road train, and he was tickled almost
to death with his ride. He was born
and reared in the rural Businesses Of
Noxubee, and his innocence of the
ways of the world was delightfully."-
refreshing to the prison officers. He
appeared as happy as a darkey about
to Sc married, and was actually jubi
LIANT over the nice suit of striped
clokhes presented to him by one of the
sereeants.
Thomas Glenn and Charles Orr,
condemned men who were COM
muted by Governor Longino some
time since, have been brought TO the
prison to commence their life terms.
The state will lose money on a ne
gro prisoner who has just arrived at
the prison. He is H. W. Peck, who
was given a thirty day term in Goa
homa county for perjury in liquor
case Peck weighs nearly $50 pounds,
and it will be necessary to have a
special suit of clothes for him. On
his discharge the state must present
him with suit of citizens clothes
and $40 in money, and it will there
fore be seen that the short term is a
profitable venture for Peck, and de-
cided financial loss to the state. He
is o. remarkable looking man, being
almost white and having a long grey
beard During reconstruction days
