NY, oh my, but that pitcher. George
DAILY is no real gentleman or he would
lave. picked out some day other than
ladies' day to trounce the Islanders
IN the manner he did yesterday. He
VAS on the job from the very start
until the very finish and the TigherS
bad their claws clipped in most re-
hiarkable style. Not one measiJ,
Ilonely, little single could the entire
Rock Island aggregation gather. Stark
lwas the only Islander who saw
Iseeond base and except for him,
Eng was the only one to reach
fist and both of them got there
Through the grace of Pitcher DAILY
| in giving them free transportation
Neither of them stayed at the bases
Hong enough to get acquainted and the
Islanders were never dangerous. It's
jtiue that they hit the bali on the nose
lseveral times but Dame Fortune wille1
! that the hard ones be directly into
some ones hands. Three of these hard
hit ones were pasted right ut Andrews
of them down and after chasing them
few feet managed TO get the men al
S3st. 1t was most notwithstanding
game but withal pretty exhibition
OF the national sport
| . Hardin Nearly as Good.
George Hardin was on the mound
for Rock Island and no fault could be
found with his twirling 1t was gilt
edged in every way and in seven out
of the nine rounds not hit was made
off him. That same Dame Fortune,
however, who willed that our hard
bumps be stopped before they did any
damage, willed it that three of the
chams's hits be made in one round and
Z the result was two scores which was
a great sufliciency i'll an air tight con
i test such as yesterdays The worst
Ilrart of it was that every one of the
hits were hits simply because the
champs bad their rabbits foot with
them and working overtime Ii the
fourth round. Callahan. who was first
up, knocked one down to deep short on
which Berger made a daisy stop and a
!! bcaut OF throw to first. but Cal is
there some on the sprint AMI he beat
the ball to the sack Hardin spceded
up bit and had johnson batting with
out seeing the bali. On HE third
! strike. he swung too slow, as usual, but
managed to tap the ball through TIL
J right infield, where il wa good for hi
II was lucky poke for the right handed

even better luck. He repeated, wo
} for word, ON Johnson'S little story AM
went him one better by hitting TIC
bali little later and the resi-. vas
the sphere rolled down The foul line fo'

his mettle and he did so. Andrews
few out to Mclean and Blausser d.
the same to Mcbride, but job .sor
took a chance on Mac and came homs

the inning with a fly to Mcbride aftel
Steiger had been passed. That ended
the run getting and the champs wer,

I all they needed as long as Daily con
tinued to twist them over the plat;
in such a bewildering manner. The
