Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1903-07-23

Dubuque was victim yesterday
afternoon in the last game of the
series by Il score of ) to 1. Arthurs,
Rock Islands new find, was in the
box for the locals and at all stages of
the contest had the Dubuque hard
hitters at his mercy. The home team
had the visitors blanked until the
eighth inning, an error by Nandine
paving the way for the only score OBJ
tanned by them. Martin developed
batting tendencies and drew three
hits out of four times at bat, one of
n three-base denomination and the
other two-bagger. Euhl was
touched up for total of IL hits and
seemed far from a puzzle, though at
no time did he weaken and throw his
game away

DonneIIy Scores.

Donnelly settled early in the game
to the task of score getting and after
a hit scored on a wild throw of the
Dubuque pitchers. Dickey started
off in the third inning with hit. He
was advanced on Arthur's sacrifice
and scored on DOnnelIy's hit. Lister
went to first on single in the fourth
and was helped home by Martins
three-bagger. Two more runs com
pleted the Rock Island total in the
seventh. Martin, Dickey and Arthurs
hit in succession and the first ran in
after Crum's caught fly while Dickey
scored on Donnelly's sacrifice.
The solitary score for the visitors
came in the eighth inning after the
crowd had whetted its appetite for a
shut-out. Mcknight went to first on
Nandine's error and Jameson made
the hit which brought in the run by
Mcknight. Carr and Hughes went
out at first and the game was over.

HARvARD'S NIGHT LUNCHES
May Be Restricted, According to Pres
EIiot's Ideas. ~

Cambridge, Mass, Dec G.-Because in
the opinion of Pres. Eliot of Harvard,
midnight lunches consisting OF .-Nhqt
dogs mince pies, horses necks" and
other delightful dishes are prejudicial to
the health. comfort and happiness of
Crimson undergraduates. Shows lunch
room, the oldest and most famous resort
of it's kind in Cambridge, will bring its
career to an untimely end within few
days.
For almost quarter of a century, over
its milk-hespattered counter. Harvard
men from morning until midnight have
munched away on every indigestible that
human ingenuity can conceive. First the
place was run by "Herhe'' Foster. whose
name is familiar to Harvard men in all
quarters of the globe Then Boynston
and then Snow, its present owner.
But although tradition hung thick over
the glass jars of sandwiches. cellars and
pies lined up along the counter, the old
place is dear to countless students and
graduates President Eliot. as9head OF
the university, which owns the, building
on which it stands. has declared it must
go. Both he and DR. Bailey. the college
medical adviser have witnessed yswith
alarm the growing increase in the NUM-
Der of cases of dyspepsia and indigestion
among Harvard students, and they hope
the abolition OF the old midnight lunch
room will have beneficial effect.
Undergraduates take anything but a
happy view of the situation, for year
ago Ramsdens famous litte Joint was
closed, and it looks as if midnight revel-
lcrs of the future would be left with no
place where they can satisfy their rapa-
ciOuS appetiteS.

company. The small company is or
ganized to- build the line and does the
work as cheaply as possible. lnstru-
ments and a switch board are leased of
the New England and a contract made
for connection with it's wires. The
lines are commonly grounds" but one
wire being used and the circuit Sc
cured by running both ends into the
dirt. Such a line will hardly compare
with an up date, all copper circuit
but it answers the purpose and it is
possible to carry on a conversation
over it, while the convenience is so
great that any small difficulties are
ignored.
These bug lines" as they are some
times called. can be operated much
more cheaply by the local parties than
if owned and controlled by the New
England. When the patrons wish to
talk long distance" they are switched
on to the regular New England wires
at the point of meeting. a fixed toll
being paid for this privilege in addi-
ton 10 the rates for local service. Sec
lions of the State that the large COM
pany could not afford to go into for
many years with its much more costly
and elaborate service are excellently
served by these little lines. There are
over 80 companies IN all in the Stale
and the amount they pay the New
England each year in tolls makes Il
tidy addition to it's income without
any great outlay.
The central location of Waterville is
again attested by the fact that there
is a larger number perhaps of these
bug lines" in the Waterville exchange
than in any other in the State. There
are the following: The Central Maine,
serving Fairfield Center. Larone, North
Fairfield Clinton, Canaan, Pishon's
Ferry and East Fairfield; the Nor
ridgewock & New Sharon, serving
these two places and Smithfield and
Rome: the Somerset Telephone Co,
serving Arson, North A:nson and Madi-
son; the Bingham & Moose River
serving Scion. Bingham, Moscow
Embden, Briggs Landing and The
Forks; the Dead River Log Driving
Co., continuation Of the Bingham &
Moose River and connecting The
Forks and Dead RiveI.s the Kennebec
Log Driving Co, connecting The Forks
phone Co., connecting Athens and
West Athens: the HartEhnd Telephone
Co, connecting Hartland and ST. AL
bans; the Unity Telephone Co., serv-
ing Unity; the Half Moon Telephone
Co. connecting Thorndike and Knox
These small lines. i'm addition to
paying considerable toll money. culti-
vate the territory for the larger COM
pany by getting the people accus-
toned to the use of the telephone AMI
impressing upon them its great con-
venience. Perhaps the larger company
does not scruple to gobble up a small
line when it is demonst rated that there
is good business in IFS territory, but
the small line is usually willing to be
cobbled and the service is straight
way much improved
New bug lines" are being continue
ally added to the list, so that before
very long there will scarcely be a viii
lage of any size in the State that does
not have a service of some kind.

The Maine Central along with others
is commencing to feel the effects of
the low water, as the freight business
is getting very dull. number of the
trainmen are being laid off for lack
of business. This is caused by the

has now dwindled to a very small pro-
portion of the usual amount. grand

going again and then the special

Joseph ellis, who has charge of the
crew of men that is putting in the frog
for the connection of the w. & o. and
the w. & f. electric roads, met with
what at first seemed to be pretty Sc
we're accident, yesterday forenoon. The
big heavy rails that are used through
the paving have to be cut TO admit the
fros and the work is being done mostly
with cold chisels. Mr.. Gillis was hold
ing one of these when the man who was
striking made some kind of a miss and
hit him in the forehead with the
sledge. The blow was heavy enough
to cause the foreman to see all sorts
of stars never catalogued and to cut a
severe cash that required several
stitches. After being treated by ply
stefan and having his head properly
bandaged ne went back to work.

The placing of the frog and switch
at the junction of Main and Temple
streets mas proved rather a tough job
at this time of year, the crew now
having been at work three days and
still having several days more before
completion. In the first place a good
sized section of the pavement had to
be removed. and as it has been ham,
mered by teams for years and was
securely frozen, this was a good deal
like quarrying granite. Then the big
steel rails had to be cut by hand and
the new pieces fitted nicely. Large
quantities of salt have been used to
soften up the ground and to prevent
freezing each night so far as possible

has agents all over the country selling
tickets, and as advices regarding the num-
