Night baseball was tried at Gin
cinnati last night and President
Garry Hermann of the Cincinnati
National league club, who is inter-
ested in the test, declared it was
demonstrated that the game could
be played by electric light and with
some further development in the
system, was bound to become a per-
manent amusement feature. Teams
of Elks from Cincinnati and New
port, KY, played. Players handled
hard infield hits with apparently the
same ease as in daylight, while the
outfield missed but two of possible
Ia chances.

HAS Good RECORD
President M. H. Sexton Com.
+ piles Figures of Pitcher
George Hardin.
in REPLY TO REQUESTS
But One Game i'm Which More Than
Six Hits Were Maue OFF Him
Whitfield One an Inning.

A number of requests have been
made to President M. H. Sexton of the
rhree-Eye league for information in
regard to Pitcher George Hardin of
The Rock Island team and 1t seems
that number of the managers and
scouts of the major league teams are
getting little anxious as to who is
going to secure his services next year.
III reply to the requests, the president
has compiled Hardin's fielding, bat
ting and pitching record for the month
CT May and it shows the following
facts:
Hardin pitched II innings, was cred
tied with winning five games and los
ing three. Two hundred and twenty
nine opponents faced him and AZ hits
were made off him, which means that
TO one fattened his batting aver
ages at his expense, as the average
of the batters who faced him was but
1888. Out of the 229 who faced him,
he struck out "a, which is in itself a
remarkable record, being almost a
nan for every inning. George issued
% free PASSES and hit three batters,
but did not have wild pitch charged
against him.
More Than Six Hits But Once.
A remarkable thing about his record
is that in the nine games ne pitched,
only once was there more than six
hits made off him. The exception was
the rainy afternoon of Memorial day,
VIXEN Rock Island lost to Davenport
by score of Z to and on which occa-
sion, the winners secured IL hits, sew
cral of which resulted from the inao-
ility of the fielders to cover any
ground on account of the mud. He
had two one hit games to his credit.
His batting average for the month was
100 and his fielding average was .95S.
both of which rank high among the
twirlers in the league.
When it is considered that Hardin
has really been displaying better form
during the past month than he did n
May, it is no wonder that the scouts
and major league managers have
turned their eyes toward MIN.

Cedar Rapids, June 19.-(Special)-
The handful of fans who faithfully
rallied yesterday were surprised. not
TO say shocked, by the result of the
final contest between Rock Island and
Cedar Rapids. Pitching perfect ball
and with support that was brilliant in
tight places, Carmichael held the Is
landers runless through nine innings
and a bunch of well timed raps put
two across for the home fingers.
There was no lack of pepper and
good plays were numerous on both
sides. Carmichael got in some aw-
fully tight places from wrich he wig
gled out by the skin of his teeth. For
instance, Berger twice hit for three
bases, once with one out and once
with no one down. In the former case
he was nailed at the plate in a double
play, and in the other he died on base,
the next three men going out to Sail
lard at first.
All In One Inning.
All the score getting was done in
the sixth. Carmichael hit for an open
er and scored on a three-bagger by
Clemens. After Spencer and Chase
had rolled out, Collins hit single that
brought the final score. Rock Island
were repeatedly within striking dis
lance of the plate, but always failed to
connect safely. Score:
