Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1903-07-01

With yesterday The Argus Faithful
Service contest, undertaken for the
purpose oflearning who in Rock Island
county has longest been employed at
a given line of labor under a given
management and to bestow upon such
person a gold watch came to an end.
Today the evidence submitted by
the contestants showed that Peter
Hanson, of Moline, for As years an
employee of the Barnard g. Leas Manu-
Featuring company and the firms that
preceded il in the management of the
same business, is entitled TO receive
the geld watch offered.
As stated at the opening of the con
test, The Argus believes that in the
rapid changes that take place nova
days too little recognition is given to
those qualities that enable one to
faithfully discharge in conscientious
manner day after day and year after
year those duties Of more or less
humble nature which. after all, make
up the sum and substance of the
worlds real progress. With this idea
in view the contest that has now end
ed was undertaken and carried out.
The contest was begun March and
there were over twenty bona fide en-
tries. in addition to several whose
names We're submitted and who were
disqualified under the terms announc-
ed in the beginning. Those entered
have been employed from COMPARE
lively short terms to periods over 10
years in length, three being found be

Case Grew Sick

Case retired in the fourth on ac-
count of sickness and Cadwallader
went to the slab. Wenig touched him
for a single; Reading forced Wenig to
second. While McClintock was strik-
ing out, Reading attempted TO steal
and was successful, taking third also
when O'Leary threw the ball to center
field to catch him. Cadwallader was
obliging enough to make wild pitch
just at this juncture and Reading
came trotting home. Belt hit to Ora
ham and beat out the ball. but was
called out for turning the wrong way.
The locals presented the senator's
with another in the fifth. After two
were down. Willis scored on wild
pitch by Cadwallader. This ended the
scoring for the visitors.
The home team secured their lone
run in the fourth inning. Green hit
for three bases, Rebsamen knocked a
long fly to Wenig and Green came
home. 1t looked as if we were going
to get another, but a double play.
McClintock to Donahue killed our
chances. In the fifth with three men
on bases and two out Green might
have won the game-but what's the
use. Here's the way the scorer got

GROWING IN POPULARITY.
The More People Know NewbrO's HerpI-
eide the Better They Like 1t.

The more it becomes known the
better it is liked. One bottle sells two,
and these two sell four. Newbro's
Herpicide is what we are talking
about. 1t cleans the scalp of all dand-
ruff and destroying the cause, a lit
tie germ, or parasite, prevents the re-
turn of dandruff. As hair dressing
it is delightful, it ought to be found
on every toilet table. 1t stops falling
hair, and prevents badness. 1t should
be used occasionally as a preventive
to protect the scalp from new in
vasion of the dandruff microbe. Sold

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1903-07-01

Well, we made it thirteen. The team
that represents Rock Island just at
puresent succeeded in handing the
senators the fourth straight game
yesterday at the TweIith street park.
The last column in the tabulated sc lr,,
tells the story. Another combination
in the lineup was tried yesterday,
Donnelly covering second. Ed Smith
was sent to- center aud Green was
put in right, but it did not have the
desired effect ON the error column
for they came as thick and fast as of
yOre. The game was poorly pla ysa
and had there been more hitting it
would have developed into farce.
Springfield got one in the first.
Donahue walked and after Kinlock
single, Lyons reached first on a
fielder's choice. With Wenig at the
bat, Lyons started to steal, O'Leary
threw to Case and Caffryn who was
on third, started for home, and would
have been caught if he hadn't knocked
the ball out of Danny's hand. Wenig
flew to Graham.
The senators cinched another in
the third. After Willis and Donahue
were down, Kinlock hit down near
second, was safe on an error, and
shortly after walked down to that
cushion. Caffryn poked out the ncces-
sary single and kinlock scored. Lyons
was out, Case to Rebsamen.

He secured a position in the saw
mill of Pitts, Gilbert d Pitts and

Gus interest holders.
Now Operates Punch.
Mr.. Hanson is now running small
perforating machinery on the third
floor of the factory. This work was
given him on the recommendation of
