CHICKEN DINNER
FOR THE BALL TEAM
Mrs. W. T.. Smith Pays Penalty of
backing Davenport To Win
Majority of Games.

The ball players were treated TO "A
complimentary chicken supper last
evening as the guests of Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter E. Smith of this city. Mr..
Smith and his wife made a wager at
the beginning of the year as to the
relative merits of the Rock Island and
Davenport teams and Mrs. Smith
chose to back the Prodigals. The
loser was required to furnish a supper
for the team which won n majority or
The games played with the other. and
accordingly it was up to Mrs. Smith
TO see that the Rock Island players
were banqueted. She discharged her
obligations to the entire satisfaction of
he ball players and her husband, and
a fine time was the result. After the
supper was over, entertainment was
furnished by Joe Berger and Claude
Stark, each of whom sang several
comic songs and performed divers
other stunts such as have made them

LINE O. DOPE

Springfield has gained the equiva-
lent of three full games on Rock Is
land in two days. The pennant is
NOT as near as it was. ,8oa
-. Practically every other newspaper
on the circuit has printed d story of
Jack Herbert'S resignation as umpire,
but Jack is still on the job.
The Peoria management has a mys-
terious bunch that the Chicago White
Sox may have drafted Dave Rowan
If not. George Reed of Mobile will get
him, it is feared.
The Bloomington Bulletin says the
drafting of four players by the St.
Louis Cardinals from Springfield
looks crooked on the face of it. in
asmuch as the rules prohibit taking
more than three players from any
one team by this method.
Swacina has recovered from the i'll
Jury to his ankle and knee which he
sustained in the last game with Spring
field. and he was able to report for
duty again today. His return will
make a patched up infield unnecessary
and ought to inject little ginger into
the boys.
Last evening the Dubuque Tele-
graph Herald printed this: THAT De-
catur bunch is about tie deadest lot
of ball players in the league at the
present time They seem capable of
playing good ball, but have little heart
in the game. Most of the players
seem to regard the game as a joke. +"
And before the ink was dry the Com
modores had trounced the Miners
twice. Such is baseball
Says the Davenport Democrat:
"The Davenport management had de.
sired to have Rock Island play of
one of it's postponed games here or
the coming Saturday but for some
reason or another, which has not yet
been explained. the Islanders refuse
