Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1904-08-10

Rock Island should have yesterdays
ilye-inning game with Springfield
Thornton was called out at the plate in
the first inning by Umpire Milan when
any unbiased judge would have al
lowed the score. The runner made a
slide of fully ten feet and
reached the rubber simultaneous
ly with the touching of him
by Catcher Latimer But Milan
waved him out even before the ball
was in Latimer's hands. For some
unexplained reason Milan since his
connection with the league has handed
1t to Rock Island on every possible oc-
casion. Rock Island is not one of those
cities that complains chrOnically over
the umpire question. Any man who
knows the game and manifests a de-
sire to be fair will suit the players
and the fans here
Stuart has pleased both the home
and visiting teams, and it is beyond
understanding why he should have
been disturbed by President Holland
| 1t is sincerely to be hoped that Mr.
| Milan will endeaVor to more evenly
balance the scales hereafter, if the
league president is to insist on his re
naming here
Senators Complain of Darkness.
The game was called at the end of
the fifth inning at the bchest of the
| Springfield players, who claimed that
1t was too dark to field the ball
| Granted that it was a trifie gloomy
making il somewhat difficult to fol
low the ball, there was no reason WHY
play should have been stopped on that
account. Milan announced to the audi
ence that as soon as il grew brighter
the game would be resumed, but in
the interim the rain that had been
threatening all the afternoon broke
and the crowd started for Ahe cars
Rock Island was hitting Brittsen. and
If the ten minutes that the team were
allowed to loaf waiting for the rain
had been consumed in play the chances
were decidedly in favor of the team
pushing a score across the plate, for
the heavy batters were up in the
sixth inning.
Flowers and Ovation for DOnnclIy.
The bouquet presentation TO Manager
Donnelly of the visiting team pleased
the crowd immensely. 1t was a COM
plete surprise on him. and was car
ried out in such a manner that there
could not be the slightest suspicion
on his part that there was anything
doing. Lippert led off for the visitors
| with single-by the way the only
hit that was secured off Liebhardt in
the five innings-and when Donnelly
marched to the rubber Umpire Milan
walked back as if to get the broom to
sweep the plate. Instead he brought
forth huge bouquet of posies that
Manager NicOl had been keeping under
cover in the dressing room under the
grand stand. Donnelly bowed his &C
acknowledgements and the audience &C
corded him an ovation. Donnelly's

The Boone 0owa) News has a rath-
er poor opinion of Red" DOnahuc. for
merly with Rock Island, as a manager.
1t says: Manager Donahue did not
make many friends by his actions Sun

fused to pay their fares going down
The matter was reported to Manager
Reynolds, who asked about the mat
ter It's a d-n lie" was the reply.
Orders were then issued to put off
every man who refused to pay his car
fare. Four men were put of on the
return trip. Considerable talk was Oc-
casioned by this. 1t is a very poor
manager who ncgIects his team in this
manner. When Boone visits Oska-
loosa, or any other town, car fare and
everything else has to be paid. This
morning two of the players were left
in Boone owing To lack of arrange
mcnts and foresightedness on the part
of the OSkaIoosa manager

Milan manifested his inconsistency
in disciplining players when he failed
to close Lippert up in the third inning
for growing over his calling a strike
on him when the player claimed that
the ball had struck him on the foot.
Lippert swung at the ball. and Milan S
ruling was correct. Nevertheless
Louie ragged continually until the
game was called. If he had been a
Rock Island player probably he would
have been taken off the ground by a

bridesmaids Gowns

The fashion Of dressing bridesmaids
exactly alike has its disadvantages
quite apart from the fact that a given
costume may not be equally suitable
to a whole bevy Of girls. Think of
thirteen gowns and thirteen hats ex-
actly alike let loose in London, says
the Queen. At time of the year when
the bridesmaid's gown may be trans
formed into an evening dress or taken
abroad. it may not matter so. much;
but think of the possibility of meeting
those thirteen frocks one after an
other. 1t is pure tragedy.
Why should the group of attendant
maids be dressed alike? Why should
they not carry out q scheme of color,
each unit playing her part in the con-
struction Of a harmonious whole. A
group of eight bridesmaids. who were

We're great success. They wore

Treatment of PIumes

Nothing gives a hat more forlorn
appearance than an ostrich feather that
is limp and draggled from being IN a
rain or snow storm. AS the ostrich
plume is the most stylish as well as
the most expensive of all hat trim
mings, it is a great help to know how
to freshen and rejuvenate them. Re-
move the plume from the hat and hold
it over the steam escaping from the
spout OF the tea kettle, shaking it
vigorously. This freshens it wonder
fully restoring its brilnancy il it has
become duh and dusty. Then take a
silver knife and beginning with the
feathers nearest the quill, take a small
bunch between the thumb and fore
finger, and draw gently over the back
of the knife until they curl again. When
you have finished. comb with a very
coarse comb, and your plume viii look
