TIMELY HITTING AND FAST
FIELDING RESULTED IN A VIC-
TORY FOR THE HOME BOYS IN
THE FINAL INNING.
Large quantities of Templeton and
a mixture consisting of fast fielding
and timely hitting, more especially
the latter, administered in the nine
doses( by Walt and his corps of as-
sistants, were what defeated the All-
Stars from Romulus at Benson park
yesterday afternoon. But these same
All-Stars were by no means a cinch,
for they struggled desperately until
death had claimed its required 27
victims. At one time it looked as
though the visitors would go home
with the big end of the stick.
Templeton was one the firing line
for the locals and pitched a masterly
game, wielding up only four hits,
though at times he was wild.
Colby, an elongated six-footer from
down the county, was on hand to do
the twirling stunt for the visitors
and he seemed to have the goods
with him. He made eight husky Elks
bite the dust and allowed as many
hits.
With the score tied in the ninth
Smith, the first man up, reached
first on an error and advanced on
Blakely's infield hit. Smith later
scored the winning run from third
when Brooks hit a high fly to right
field.
In the first inning Brooks and
Watson, iu* trying to catch a foul
fiy, collided and were badly shaken
up. Brooks continued playing but
Watson was forced to retlrfe, Turner
taking his place.

W. M. Brooks, negro, evidently

take someone to a "cleanin*," as it
is frequently expressed. The "clean-

Jerry Spann, assistant chief of police,
interferred before Brooks got as far
as Main street. Spann noticed that
Brooks kept, feeling of his hip pocket
and, knowing him as he did, Spann
stopped him and searched him. He
found a razor without a case in the
man's hind pocket. Brooks was ar-
rested and placed in jail. His trial
is set for 4 o'clock this afternoon.

(hie Is Being Held In the City Jnll
For Investigation.
Shortly after 2 o'clock this after-
noon Officers Jerry Spann and Dar-
den arrested two negroes at the cor-
ner of Main and Broadway. Their
actions led the officers to believe
that they should be taken in charge.
At the police station they gave their
names as "Sunny" Mitchell, age 26,
and M. Lackey, age 22. When ques-
tioned by the chief of police, they
said they were laborers employed
on the railroad. Further question-
ing by the chief led to such con-
tradictory statements that the police
thought it advisable to hold them
for Investigation.
TWO BOYS WERE DRUNK.
Pleaded Guilty in fonrt Tills Morn-
ing and Were Fined $5.
Two boys were arrested Saturdav
night charged with being drunk.
They were held in the city jail until

fine and were released. One of tW
boys said he was employed at tho
Rock Island shops and the other
said he was a farmer.

AT BALL GAME
SUFFERED DISLOCATED ,IAW
BONE WHEN HE COLLIDED
WITH ANOTHER PLAYER—IN
JURY IS NOT SERIOUS.
Phil Watson, superintendent at the
compress, suffered a severe accident
at the ball game at Benson park yes-
terday afternoon when he and
Brooks, who was playing third bast,,
collided while trying to catch a foul
ball. Watson's jaw bone was knocked
out of place. He was taken to the
Shawnee hospital, where the bone
was set, and he was later allowed to
go to his home.
Watson was catching for the local
team. A fly was knocked close in
and he ran to get it. Brooks, who
held down third, also started for tho
ball and the men ran Into each
other while going at good speed.
Brooks is the heavier of the two but
the contact sent them both to the
ground, backwards. Watson's In-
juries are not serious.

DOGS HAYING GOOD TIME.
Hill Chief Hill Didn't Want Court
Disturbed This Morning.
Two dogs, not realizing how cloBe
they were to real danger, proceeded
to enjoy themselves in the municipal
courtroom this morning while court
was in session. The dogs' play final-
ly led to one of the two getting an-
gry. A fight was fairly started when
Chief of Police Frank Hill Interfered
as usual and separated the com-
batants with a vicious kick.
After a howl or two the dogs
rushed out the side door. It was
some time before Judge Flowers
could get the courtroom sufficiently
quiet to proceed with the cases on
trial. "
"By George! They even stop a
dog fight In this town before it gets
fairly started," remarked a bystander
who was also a newcomer.

MELONS AGE PLENTIFUL
AS WELL AS OTHER FRUITS
THAT ARE NOW ON THE MAR-
KET—LOADS OF FRUIT COMING
IN EVERY DAY.
"Do you see that load of melons,"
remarked a bystander on Broadway
this morning. A wagonload of wat-
ermelons was just passing. "That is
the fifth load of melons I have seen
this morning and they are all fine
ones too."
Melons are certainly plentiful on
the market now. They are of a sweet
and juicy variety and are not to bo
rivaled anywhere. Cantaloupes and
nuskmelons are also on the market
by the wagonloads and are selling at
three for 25 cents. They are equal
to the famous Rocky Ford melons,
if not better. > • r*. n
Wagonloads of grapes and peaches
are also coming In. It certainly
would be no trouble for the house-
wife to get a goodly supply of fruit
for canning purposes. v
