STIRRING TROUBLE
Newspapers at the Southern
End of the Three-Eye Re-
fleet on Rock Island.
BELlTTLE RESULT OF RACE
Not Content to Abide by Result as
True Sportsmen-Seek to Impose
Handicap Next Year.

Newspapers at the southern end OF
the Three-Eye circuit are drawing false
differences from Rock Islands opposi-
ton TO the freak schedule prepared by
Wilson Behring to submit for adoption
next season. They pretend to see an
unfair advantage in the manner in
which this city won the pennant last
season. They are still inclined to hint
that all may not have been on the
square among the teams at the north
end and to indulge in lot of other
rot. They declare that if this city had
been compelled to play out the end of
the season with the three other lead
ing teams it would not have been pos
sible for the Islanders to have finished
ahead.
As for any crOOkedness being indulS-
cd in, it is a poor time TO drag this
charge out, and. anyway. anybody wh1
saw the last games Rock Island played
with the other northern teams knows
how false it is. Furthermore, those
who would belittle ROCK Islands
achievement ought to take time to re-
fleet that under a schedule such as is
proposed by Mr. Behrlng, while Rock
Island would not have had as many
games to play with the northern teams
neither would its leading rivals, and
Rock Islands distance from the tor
would have been considerably less
than it was when the final squirt be
gan. a.
| Rock Island knows too well what the
uncertainties of a pennant race are t.
oppose the Behring idea on the ground
| of being menace to the local pros
poets next season. If there is any dis
advantage it is just as likely to accrue
| to any other team as to Rock Island.

BEDROOM WITHOUT BED.
Novel Feature In the Construction o.
Flats.

Flats.
A new era in fiat construction, in
which bedroomless apartments. made
possible by the introduction of sanitary
disappearing wall beds. is the feature
about to be launched upon its journey
of popular acclaim or defeat by firm
of western fiat builders, says the Popu-
lar Mechanics for December Tt is
claimed that fat buildings thus con
structed will make two or three room
suits serve the purpose of the four or
five room apartments.
The bed when not in use is folded
into closet or recess ventilated and
lighted by window or vent, creating
an all day Sanitary arrangement. The
bedding is securely fastened at the
foot of the bed and when shut away
for the day the sheets and comforters
hang slightly separated, thus affording
proper sanitation. When not in use
the ornamental face of the bed pre-
sents to the eye a large cheval plate
mirror and mantel place. When the
bed is down, automatically closing
doors form an apparently solid wall.

BAR GAL n D A Y
For Cheap WatChes.--SliCk Stranger
Comes Out Ahead on Deal

The other day Sheriff Bedford
got word that stranger had
been disposing of stolen watches
at Pelican Point bridge. and at
Grand Harbor. The sheriff in
vestigated the rumor and went
down to the bridge first. Upon
arrival there he located the man
who had bought the watch. The
man said that he was approach
ed by a stranger who showed
him fine gold watch, saying
that the article had been stolen,
that it was evidently worth a
great deal, but being hard up,
he would part with it for the
very small sum of $3.50. This,
the man gladly paid and went
on his way rejoicing. Upon in
vestigation, however, it was
found that the watch which was
supposedly bought at a great
bargain was a cheap freight
affair which can be bought for
about dollar wholesale. 1t is
said that blacksmith in Grand
Harbor was also taken in I'M
doubtedly by the same story,
and paid S. for the same kind of
a watch.
Some day we will all "get
wise"-maybe.

FROM NEW YORK TO DA-
KOTA.

There is a certain lake in New
York state around which many
Indian legends are clustered.
When the surrounding country
was still UNEMPLOYED and unset
tied by the whites, this lake was
the RENDEZVOUS and camping
place of the aborigines. In nam
ing their villages, the Indians
resort to the use of vivid, descrip
tive epithets expressing the chief
characteristics of the place in
question. This misty lake they
named Chautauqua, a word
which in their language means,
''foggy Places
Many centuries after, in 1874,
a group of New Workers start
ed an assembly on the shores of
this lake. The place was beau
tifully suited for camping. The
sympathies of some men of
wealth were soon enlisted and
generous donations made posi-
BILE extensive improvements on
the land procured. The idea was
not the founding of a fashionable
summer resort. Nor was it the
founding of a Coney island. a
huge, permanent, circus-day
sensation. Fashion might come
and be welcome, Coney island
attractions might come but they
would have to go. For the hope
was to prepare at Chautauqua
lake a quiet, restful camping
ground where those in need of
rest after a years work might
find it. Rest, however, must be
more than mere freedom from
the accustomed daily task. AS
the Spectator remarked to his
friend, old SirRodger deCoverley
Had not exercise been absolute
ly necessary for our well-being,
nature would not have made the
body so proper for it."
With this in view boating,
bathing and all sorts Of moderate
summer sports were provided
But this was not all.
