Pitchers. blue Jacket, .'Rube' Burch

anaugh, cripples, accompanied by
Doc" Markley, the versatile trainer,
arrived home last night from Mon
mouth and will rest up for the ser
les which opens tomorrow and does
not conclude until Sunday. The en-,
envy is Monmouth again and the pick
ing looks good for couple, or three
or four more victories. After finish
ing the engagement today at Mon
mouth the two clubs will come right
over to the Indians camping ground
and renew hostilities. 1t is more than
likely that "Rube' Burch will be on
the mound in tomorrow's game.
Doc" Markley is not much worried
about the two cripples with the
squad. Bresnahan was hurt yester-
day in sliding to third. He came IN
contact with the Monmouth third
basemen and received bruise on the
thigh. 1t will keep him out of the
game for only few days Morris
took his place yesterday in the Sec
ond game and from reports brought
back home the outfielder was at home
at third base. Cavanaugh has bad
looking thumb, but will be able to
catch again in a day or two The
second joint of his thumb is injured,
but no bones broken. It is probable
that Broadwell will pitch today.
Burch believes that the Indians are
as good as any club in the league. He
says he has seen nothing to be afraid
OF. Referring to the disastrous OF
tumwa series he stated that the
pitchers fell down and were not in

MONMOUTH, Ill. May 25.-Give
the glad hand to the Indians. Yes
terday Belts men took two games of
double bill from Monmouth by clean
er work in the field and more oppor-
tune hitting In both games the visit
ors were outhit, but the Browns vast
ed their bingles by scattering them
through many innings. The score of
the first game was to 0 and the sec
ond to 5.
In the opening encounter Delair
and Blue Jacket were the NUTS OPP
posing each other and both manifest
ed great speed. The work of Blue
Jacket, the Indian, was superb with
men on bases and he allowed but six
scattered hits. Two errors on easy
chances in the opening inning allow
ed Keokuk to romp away with a good
start and the lead of one run was in
creased during three other periods of
the melee. But two Monmouth play
ers reached third base and the Keo-
kuk HEAVIER was backed up by perfect
support.
In the second game Jaeger had a
lucky escape. He worked for Keokuk
and allowed eleven hits, and although
the home team made an uphill fight
the Keokuk lead could not be over
come. Keokuk scored one run in
the second and four in the third off
Pitcher Smith, who was hurriedly
escorted from the mound, after the

Sporting Views
By the Editor

Secretary Farrell has notified the
Decatur club that Catcher Schissel
will have TO report to Galesburg at
once. Schissel signed Galesburg
contract and then John Hancoeked
Decatur document with his right
name. He was discovered and will
have 10 report to Hough.
Aurora Beacon Art Fennell, who
halls from Buffalo, n Y, and who cost
Kennedy 800 and a great deal of
trouble this spring before he could
land him; pitched himself into proba-
BILE release at Oshkosh the other day.
Kennedy sent him to the mound and
the Indians podnded him for fourteen
safe hits. The score was s to @,
very poor start for the Islanders on
the first swing around the circuit. The
big eastern hurler was tagged for a
release last week, but Kennedy deeid-
ed to hold him until the weather got
warmer Re has been told that he
was tie best pitcher in the Central
association last season and decided to
give him one more trial The chance
came and he failed TO make good. Lo.
cal fans are now anxious to hear what
Kennedy will do with him.
Snapper Kennedy pulled one off
on the Appleton club. House, the In
dian outfelder, was playing with Ap-
pleton. Kennedy did some detective
work and finally unearthed the fact
that John had jumped Fresno, Cal,
contract. He Offered a price for the
redskin and the deal went through,
and now house has been ordered to
report to Aurora, while Appleton is
wondering what struck them.
Quincy Herald: The showing made
by the Quincy team in the first six
series is remarkable. Twelve games
were won and five were lost. OF the
five that were lost, only one was fin
ished in five innings and two were lost
by more than one run. Reyes lost
two extra inning games, Wafer lost
one that went extra innings and Noah
lost another, and all were air-tight,
with the lone exception of that one
game week ago yesterday, when
Galesburg piled UP eight runs. The
team is playing ball and the. club that
beats them has to go mighty good.

Interesting to Roadmakers.

The number of automobiles now
owned in the United States is esti-
mated at 25O.OOO, and the number is
rapidly increasing.
France is said to have the most SUI
perb system of highways in the world.
1t is said that her good roads have
cost her $625. 100000
Scientific road builders are concen-
trating attention on securing a road
surface that will withstand the ire
mendous wear and tear OF automobiles.
Nothing damages an improved road
as much as a heavy machine driven at
high rate of speed. Little or no
damage is inflicted by automobiles
moving at any rate up to twenty miles
an hour. Beyond that the damage is
plainly seen.
1t is claimed that nine-tenths of the
dust produced by man comes from his
streets and highways. The roads.
therefore. have been dubbed the ma
tional dust factory" The dustless
road is an ideal of builders. Dust not
only means that the improved road is
wearing away, but it is highly injuri-

1t has often been said in later years
that New England was losing her
prestige as the manufacturing center
of the United States, that she nc long

wooden manufacture and hence must
be declining in prosperity. BIT this
does not follow. The country has
grown so rapidly that it is no longer
possible for New England to hold the

has decreased, relatively it has in
