DUST FROM THE DIAMOND.

That must have been a spectacular
double play that was made by Lally,
McKuhn and McDOnough.
A hit was not made off Lundin I'M
Ill the seventh inning at Bloomington
Tuesday. The papers there hand him
all kinds of bouquets on his pitching.
The Rock Island team has made
otal of GO hits in five games away
rom home, an average of u to
game. That comes pretty near hit
ing like sixty
Goodwin, a new man, is expected to
join Bloomington any day. coming
from Washington, Ind. He has been
with the Evansville team and will be
given a try-out in the pitchers box.
Davenport by winning from Dubuque
Yesterday pulled itself away from the
bottom and boosted Rock Island into
third place. The spectacle of Daven-
port helping Rock Island is, to say the
least, interesting.
Thornton and his team are due at
Springfield tomorrow. When the boys
left home the fans figured on their
getting one game at Donnellyville.
They have raised it to two, and would
not be surprised to see them make it
three straight, judging by the way
they are finding the ball.
Two new players joined the Dav-
export team at Dubuque. There are
Pitcher Eul, who at one time was a
member of the Decatur team and who
of late has been playing with the Gin
ton Independents and Thomas Rey
nolds, an outfielder who has been play
ing with Boone in the Iowa State
league.
A telephone message from Bloom
ington last evening in response to an
inquiry from Director H. E. Casteel
and Secretary ]. E. Peetz, reported
Kohley Miller to be not in as bad con-
dition as believed he was from earlier
advices, and he hopes to be able to be
back in position by Saturday. The
accident, collision with Sammon, the
Bloomington centerfelder, occurred at
second while Miller was in the act of
pulling off one of his speedy double
plays. His neck was wrenched by
the impact, and he was carried off the
field in an unconscious condition. He
remained in that state fully twenty
minutes. He was conveyed to his ho-
tel, and afforded the best of medical
attendance. He was feeling as well
as he could expect to under the cir
cumstances last evening, and said that
all the soreness would disappear in
a day or so. 1t was ordered from here
that no expense be spared in providing
every attention for the injured player,
whose misfortune will be regretted by
all followers of the game.
Bloomington is trying to secure c.
E. Munich. the Chicago amateur who
was hired by Davenport, to pitch
against Rock Island in the closing Sc
ries with the locals a year ago. Munich
has received offers from Davenport
and other cities of the league this
year. but has declined them all. He
was given a trial by Minneapolis in

prove rapid enough for that company

Four of the hits against Hardy were
the result of slow fielding by his team
