Guinane Makes Hans Wagner Look
Like Thirty Cents With Six Hits
in Six Times at Bat.

AS officers of the law the Davenport
police may be all to the good, but as
baseball players they are about the
worst ever. The way the local coppers
showed them up in their game at Is
land City park yesterday afternoon was
a shame-yea, it was worse than that.
1t was a crime, for which the Islander
peelers stand in danger of arrest and
sure conviction. Every one thought
that the game was going to be some
thing of farce, but every one expect
ed that the Davenport billy club weld
ers would at least put up strong re-
sistance. They were completely out
classed, however, and the contest was
grabbed by the local cops by the enor-

made into monkeys for the time being
at least. Fifteen hundred saw the

Guinane the Hero.
Charley Guinane was the star club
wielder of the day, his record being
one of which George Manusch, Ty
Cobb or Hans Wagner might well be
proud. Out of six times up he poled
six hits, two of which were home run
drives and one a double. McNealy
was his nearest competitor as a hitter.

of which was a homer and one a three
base drive. The rest of the cops were
not backward by any means. and the
entire team succeeded in polling 81
hits. Davenport's representatives man

The recovery by Mitchell was splendid

Loser Doesn't Lose Nerve.
Credit must be given to Middleton
for the plucky game which he played
in the afternoon. At one time he was
six down. but instead of losing his
nerve he played on steadily. His score
for the last nine holes was SO, or three
under DOGGY. The cards which were

RADIATED FROM THE DIAMOND

Big Jim Novacek, playing first for
Springfield, is hitting the ball as of
yore.
Springfield will give Pitcher Nc
Grea of Laomi, a trial. He has sew
eral no-hit games among the semi
pros in his record.
Bet the Senators know they have
been in some ball games, anyhow.
We may not be able to win the pen
nant, but we can give Springfield
tor for second place.
Not very far from the bottom for
Davenport now. And Rock Island
has a pretty fair lead over Waterloo,
ort for second place.
Springfield has released Kerwin
and it is said Dubenic is also slated
to go. Hard time Kinsella is having
in filling Meloan's place.
Kinsella went to Chicago to sign
a new pitcher. The Springfield boss
fears a slump at the end of the sea-
son would cut down even the meager
patronage the team now has.

season was one of the stars of the

Make Errors Galore.

Davenport's errors, to say the least,
were costly, as one would naturally ex-
pect upon looking at the error column.
Just "a bungles were made in all, and
they were pretty well divided among
the members of the visiting team. Rod

on his teammates and managed to get

name. Kinney and Estes were close
