TOBACCO IN FAX OFF ALASKA
Resources Of Miners When They Can
Neither Smoke Nor
Chew.

Il can match the story you were
telling of the cracker women in North
Carolina who use snuff by spreading
1t over the gums with chewed stick" :"
said the man from Alaska to the
southerner next him, ''by telling how
miners and soldiers in Alaska tie to-
bacco in the arm pits or against their
solar plexus in place of taking 1t as
smoke or chew.
When the wind Is blowing 80 miles
an hour and the temperature is 40 be-
low 1t is some cold, as they say out
west. IF man used tobacco in the
ordinary way out of doors during such
weather and got his lips wet through
smoking pipe or chewing he would
be apt to get into trouble. First thing
he knew he'd have his lips cracked
and they would be raw all winter long.
THE regulars stationed at the mill
tary posts up In Alaska found that If
2hey tied tobacco leaf in their arm
pit previous to rndesired duty they
would become very sick and could
pass the post surgeon for hospital, get
ting rid of detail work they wanted to
avoid.
The miners up there learned some
thing of this and found that the to-
bacco craving could be satisfied by
binding a quantity of the leaf either
In the armpit or against the solar
plexus. This avoided broken and
bleeding lips during the winter, and
they weren't prevented from smoking
indoors as well if they wanted to. It
was the outdoor smoking or chewing
that made all the trouble
NO, | haven't tried it," said the
Alaska man, "but I 90 know that the
habit is very common up north in the
long Arctic winter among men who
spend their lives in the open. It is
the queerest way to use tobacco I
know Of"

Keep Right on Smiling
Davenport, We're Willing

Under the caption, Poor Rock Is
land the Davenport Democrat editor
iaIizes on the outcome of games be
tween Rock Island and Davenport dur
ing the season drawing to a close in
the Three-Eye league, in which Daven-
port finally bested Rock Island in the
results of the total games played be-
tween the two cities. The Democrat,
barking through its editorial columns,
shows how seriously that city has TAX
en- the occurrences of former seasons
during the 10 years of the leagues ex-
istence in which Davenport has outshone
Rock Island just once before, while
Rock Island has won two remnants
and finished in second place twice
while Davenport, with rare exception
has wound up where Rock Island
IS this year-or lower, and in
three different years got no
more than two games from
Rock Island. However, Rock Island is
not emulating the Davenport example
of former years and making a sour
face 1t has never done any Growing
in past years and it still wears the
smile and hopes that Davenport viii
keep right on smiling while enjoying
the novelty that il wants put down
as one of the big facts of 1917, wor-
thy of being written large upon the
city's historic scroll" But harken IN
to the Democrats scream of exulta-
ton:
Put il down as one Of the big facts
of 1s11-write it large upon the city's
historic scroll-that at last Davenport
assembled a ball team that could walk
away with majority Of the games
played with Rock Island. 1t has bee2
an on-year for the hoodoo. The two
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-09-07

teams have clashed for the last time
this season, and Davenport has won
II games out of 30, topping it off with
four out of the six that were grouped
on and around Labor day.
In recent years Rock Island has had
some good ball teams and some punk
ones, but good or punk, it was all the
same when they played Davenport.
The hoodoo usually worked, and sell
dom was the pride of Rock Island
dragged in the dust.
This year things are different
Even Pitcher Lakaff, whose wing in
former years could be depended on to
fling puzzlers to the Davenport bats
men, looked as small when the recent
series was over as an object viewed
through a reversed spy glass.
1T is hard to be sorry for Rock Is
land. We can only suggest to them
that they perseyere. They have one
or two good ball players on their list,
and some other year they may have
real time again. If not, they can come
over to Davenport and see ours"

MUST RALLY TO
SAVE FRANCHISE
Attendance Figure Required by
Rules of League Have Not
Yet Been Reached.
$500 ADMISSIONS SHY
Seven Games Remain to Be Played
and There Must Be Average
of 400 at Each.

Attendance figures are worrying the
owners of the Rock Island baseball
club, and unless there is rally to the
support of the Islanders there win be
deficit at the close of the season, as
at present there Is a shortage of $500
admissions and there are but seven
games to be played on the regular
schedule. Two of the seven are to be
played Sunday afternoon with Water
loo. To date, the attendance has been
80, 500, and it will mean that about 400
must attend every game in order to
reach the league minimum figure and
retain the right to remain in Three
Eye baseball.
FOUR TEAMS DRAGGING.
From present indications Danville,
Davenport and Dubuque and possibly
Peoria will make the league mark with
ease, while Rock Island. Quincy, Deca-
tur and Waterloo are trailing along in
the rear. Rock Island is higher than
any of the towns that are behind the
mark. There is little chance for Wa
terloo and Decatur to attain the So, 900
mark. Peoria and Quincy. with teams
fighting for the top notch in the race,
will probably come up to the mark,
though there is a possibility that they
will fail short
The Islanders return home Saturday
for four games with Waterloo. The at
tendance on Saturday and Sunday
alone should bring the number up TO
the required mark. Dubuque follows
Waterloo here, and they will be the
last opponents of the Islanders on the
home lot They are Ucheduled to play
three games, but unless weather inter
feres four will be played, a double
header being played on one of the days
to finish up a postponed game.
MAY BE NEW CIRCUIT.
There is probability that the Three
Eye league will be thing of the past
after this season, and that there will
be reorganization embracing two diff
ferent circuits. with present cities as
the nucleus for either circuit But,
should the Three-Eye remain intact. the
cities that reach the required attend
ance may call upon those that fall
short to Withdraw because of lack of
attendance. Therefore. in order to
safeguard the franchise of the Rock
Island club. it is up to the fans to turn
out in force during the remaining
games. Rock Island never before had
any difficulty in making the attend
ance, and this year should be no excep-
ton.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-09-07

it's appreciation OF the efforts OF the
fans in behalf of their leader, by
pulling Danville down. Myers has
stepped into Three-Eye ball despite
the fact that 1t was an uphill fight
for him, he has made the first divi-
sion and is a contender for inst hon
ors in the race. He has done this by
heady. steady playing, with a team
which boasts no stars, but who can
be counted on TO play consistent ball
every day. Last night, at Highland
park, a set piece showing Myers at
bat, was one of the features of the
pyrotechnic display.

SLATTERY GETTING
TRIAL In CENTRAL
Islander First Baseman Trying to
Prove He Has Goods With
Terre Haute Team.

If Joe Slattery can show the
management of the Terre Haute Cen
trail league team that he has class, he
will be purchased by that team from
the local club. He will have to do it
in the remaining three games Of the
Central league club this season, for
the season ends Sunday. He was sent
there for trial, following his suspen-
sion by the local club. He was in the
game yesterday, and had four putouts
to his credit, and that was all. He
played first base. AS soon as Joe
rounds into form, he will be able to
prove his ability. If he makes good
he will bring a small sum TO the local
clubs treasury.
