on his head some years ago. 1t also
led to the invention Of various devices
for destroying him.
THE favorite device was the trap
gun. In nine cases out of ten when
this gun went off it settled the bear.
l have known instances, though, in
which the trap gun fell little short Of
doing its work thoroughly and led to
unpleasant consequences for the farm

little the worst torn-up man ever
saw or heard of was a farmer named
Harvey, who made a trifiing miscal-
culation once on Maine bear that
had touched off trap gun.
THE bear had busted himself for
some time in playing havoc with Har-
ways farm products, both of growing
crops and live stock, and so Harvey
lost patience with the marauder and

to his career. An experienced woods

then followed them up with good
throws
1t was Queisser's first workout in
the box in two weeks. His pitching
was good, his fielding perfect and
his hitting superb.

that ladies' day will be observed as

Now is the time to show Jack

appreciatiye of faithful and capable
service. You may have noticed that
the Islanders have won a couple of
games, but the gratifying thing is
the article of bali they are playing
and the snap and ginger they ex-
hibit. There is good material on
the team and it is believed that with
the hospital list diminished and new
life injected into the men that the
other teams of the league are go

In a game which was featured by
sensational fielding by Clynes and
STEADY pitching by Queisser, Rock Is
land defeated the Waterloo club, TO
2, in the opening game Of the series on
the local lot yesterday afternoon. From
start to finish the contest was filed
with thrilling features which prevent
ed many hit and cut down the scores
of both teams. Clynes, in the fourth
inning. with three men on base, made
one of the best catches seen on the
local grounds this season. Harrington
pasted one on the nose and ii sailed
out to the bull sign and would have
come close to hitting it but for the
perfect run and catch. Had it gone out
OF the f1elder's reach the Islanders
would have been defeated. AS it was
IT saved the day.
QUEIssER BATS SOME ALSO.
1t was Queisser's first workout in the
box for two weeks and he pitched well
and felded his position admirably. And
in addition to that it was his two-base
drive in the second that scored the
three runs. He had another two-baser,
but 1t did not figure in the runs. He
was robbed of another hit by Fremers
fast work. With the pepper and gin
ger in the team such as has been dis
played in the last few days the Is
landers are bound to forge away from
the bottom rung and be up in the run
ming before very long. Gonding has
instilled into every one of the players
ginger and determination, and with an
even break in luck and fair umpiring
the team can't fail to climb
In addition to Clynes' fast fielding,
there were sensational stops and pegs
yesterday by the Islander infielders and
the Waterloo men as well. The game
was fast, being played in l hour and
30 minutes
For Waterloo Hendrix pitched good
game with the exception of the second
inning when the three Islander runs
came in. The support afforded him
was gilt-edged in all departments and
helped to make the game the interest
ing one that it was.
TAKE AN EARLY LEAD.
Rock Island had an early lead with
this trio of runs in the second and
maintained II throughout the game. In
that inning VOgel. first up, hit to cen
ter for a base, and went to third on
Slattery's single to right. Kelly famed
and Snyder popped out to Crane Gond-

then came Queisser's hit to The Argus
