TOMORROW BOOSTER
DAY; A DOUBLE BILL
Rock Island and Dubuque in Two
Games at Local Park for
Single Admission.

The management of the Rock Is
land Baseball association has ar
ranged for a double header for to-
morrow afternoon in which the
champs will meet the lowly 'tDubs"
for the last time this season on the
local grounds. So far this season
the Dubuque team has had an edge
on the champs, carrying away the
larger number of games. This is
something that no other team in the
circuit has done this year. The man
agement hopes for a record break
ing week day crowd. The day will
be a sort of booster day for attend
ance. Single admission will be
charged.
The champs will leave Danville
this afternoon Immediately after the
game there and will hurry home by
way of Chicago in order to be here
on time for the double bill of to-
morrow. Tomorrow is an off day in
the league and so the teams will have
an opportunity to play off the two
games which were postponed. The
Islanders go from here to Dubuque
and viii be away for four days, af-
ter which they will return for a SER
les of games on the home lot.

CLASS C FOR US
Census Figures Indicate Fate of
Three Eye, But There Is
Still Hope.
FALLS SHORT OF 100000
About Only Difference Would Be
Loss of $500 on Each Player
Drafted by Higher Circuits.

That the Three-Eye league will
have trouble in keeping its place as
Glass B circuit in the reorganiza-
ton of minor leagues when the Ma
tional Association of Minor Leagues
meets in October has been anticipat-
ed for some time, but up to the pres
ent there had been a lingering hope
that the census figures might show
that the eight cities that comprise
the present organization might have
total population of 100000 or
more, the minimum required under
present rules for leagues of the clas-
sification now enjoyed. Now, how
ever, according to official information
from Washington, advance estimates
submitted to Secretary Farrell by
Census Director Durand, indicate that
the Three-Eye league will fall into
Glass c, which requires population
of between 100000 and 100000.
The Three-Eye is one of several cir
cults that appear to have been over
rated, the Western league, which is
relegated from Glass A to Glass B,
being the most notable example.
VIII Not Govern Present Graft.
Published statements that the new
classification is to govern the price of
players drafted in the next two
weeks, however, are erroneous. The
figures have come too late for this,
and anyway, it will require action
by the National association before
the change becomes effective.
AS baseball rules have ben OBJ
served in the past the only difference
to the Three-Eye that the drop in
classification will mean will be loss
of $500 in the price of each player
drafted. Glass B players drafted
bring 5000, those of Glass G $40O
and those of Glass d, which rating
applies to circuits of less than 2O0,-
900 population, is $500. Inasmuch
as the more valuable players are US
ually sold before the drafting season
opens and there is no rule to govern
prices in such deals, the change, If it
is made, will not mean very much. 1t
is true that Glass c league is not
supposed to pay as high salaries as
one in Glass B, but in practice this
rule has not been strictly observed,
and some Glass c organizations are
actually paying more than the Three
Eye. 1t is likely, also, that in the
reorganization planned for this fall
the question of salaries. number of
men to be carried, and price of
drafted players will come in for an
overhauling, so that in the end it is
not likely that the class of baseball
furnished Three-Eye patrons will
be allowed to deteriorate. At the
same time an effort will be made to
enforce economy in matters pertain
ing to the minor leagues.

Danville, ILL.,, Aug. 29.-(Special
The work of Vogel at second and In
gals at third for Danville featured
the fastest game ever played here,
but an hour and quarter being re-
quired to complete the contest. The
Speakers were robbed of three hits
by Vogel's work, while Ingalls, pulled
over four which would have gone for
safeties and probably have had en-
abled the visitors to win.
Danville took the game because of
the slowness of Queisser in fielding
his position in the third inning, cOu-
pied with bad peg by Stark. IN
gals singled to right, Wolfe hit to
Snyder, who attempted to get In
gals at second, and both were safe.
Duffy hit down to Quiesser but he
failed to move until too late. Kay
Tor hit to Snyder and Ingalls, was
forced at home. Stark tried to beat
Wolfe to third with the throw, but
the peg was wild and Wolfe scored.
Magee hit to Snyder and Kaylor was
caught at second. Paddy was then
run down between the bases.

COACH HARMON Is
TO JOIN HIS SQUAD
Has Arrived in the City and Will Go
to Football Camp to Spend the
Next Few Days.

Merle S. Harmon, new athletic di-
rector at the Rock Island high school
and teacher of history, arrived in the
city this morning prepared to take
up his work both in the school and
on the athletic field. He expects to
join the candidates for the football
squad, who are now in training camp
below Andalusia. The players are
due to remain there the rest of this
week, which will give the new coach
several days in which to get acquaint-
ed with the boys and to size up the
prospective material.
He is a football enthusiast and is
confident of turning out good team
here provided he has the suitable ma
terial and he is assured that he has
by those who have watched the pres
ent members of the squad when at
work in former years. The new rules
do not quite suit Coach Harmon,
although he is not yet ready to pass
judgment upon them. The first two
or even three contests will in his
mind be merely tests of the new
game and until they are played he
does not want to condemn the work
of the rules committee.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-08-30

joyed a higher classification because
it was given its ratings before the
present rules were adopted and on
this ground it may put up a fight to
make the present status permanent.
If the cities were permitted to in
clude suburbs the Three-Eye as now
constituted, would not fall far Below
100000, and would without doubt
easily pass that figure before the
next federal census is taken. Under
the rule which confines population
figures to those actually within the
city limits a hardship is worked upon
cities situated as Rock Island is, for
Moline and all suburbs within reach
by trolley line are really supporters
of the game here and should be
counted as such, while Davenport
sends a regular contingent when
there are not conflicting dates here
and there. The tri-cities are large
enough to support two teams in
Glass B circuit, provided they are
associated with other cities of suffi-
cient size.

THE LIQUOR DRINKER
AND HIS BUSINESS
Absolute Importance of His Brain
Being Cleared Up.


Being Cleared Up.
1t is frequently very important
that a person under the influence of
alcoholic stirnulants should become
sober as soon as possible. Business
affairs may be neglected or social
engagements forgotten during the
period of drunkenness, and it often
devolves upon friends of the habitual
drunkard to assist him to possession
of an unclouded brain and clear in
tellect and see to it that his appear
ance is at least respectable. Expert
ence has taught that no institute ex-
tant other than the Neal Institute in
DAVENPORT AT S21 FARNAM
STREET has ever been successful in
treating drunkenness in less than
four weeks time. 1t makes no diff
ference how long a man has been
drinking, how much or how little he
drinks, or what he drinks, the Neal
treatment has never failed to cure
in three days time and without the
use of dangerous hypodermic injec-
tions or Injurious drugs. Just bear
in mind that there is no such thing
as a secret cure for drunkenness.
and you are taking great risk in ad-
ministering these remedies.
