"The Flaming Arrow" Shown to Large
ot-Weather Audience.
No one but Lincoln j. Carter would
have ever conceived utilizing the red
man as an actor Mr.. Carter has done
this. however, and done it successfully
from standpoint of character as the
Indian is studied. One could hardly inn
agine the Indian in his present-day
element to a better advantage than In
posing before the footlights. He en-
lows it. apparently. as we'll as his white
brother, and while he may not be as
good in portraying his own characters
tics as the white man. he is at least
natural. and that is more than can be
said of some actors.
1.-The Flaming Arrow" which came 10
the Odeon Wednesday night. carries
sixteen red men, all from New York
tribes. in its cast The story Is one OF
western life on the plains. Mr.. Carter
ha, afforded his usual scenic effects,
without which Carter show would be
worth but very little. AS melo-drama
the piece is far from bad, altho 1t con-
tains a slight overdose Of blood and
thunder. A large audience. for an ex-
tremely hot night, was present.

GREAT LOAD OFF HER MIND.
Mrs. jerks Returns to Waterloo il
Much Better Spirits.

Mrs. Della jerks, the young woman
who was brought TO this city by Sher-
If j. d. Caldwell. of Blackhawk coun-
ty, Wednesday morning. to be arraign-
ed on q charge of child abandonment,
returned to Waterloo Wednesday night
a much happier woman. Mrs. jerks
was treated as one of the family at
the home of Justice and Mrs. w. M.
Clark. and the surprise and apprecia-
ton of being so we'll treated when she
expected anything but kindness, We're
shown in the eyes OF the young wom-
an. The greatest load off the mind OF
Mrs jerks. however. was when JUS
tice Clark informed her before her
departure. that she need not worry
over the case, for he thought he could
assure her that final prosecution would
not result This brought smiles where
tears had been. and when the young
woman took the train, at o'clock, She
appeared to be in the best of spirits.
At the Clark home it was found from
statements made by Mrs. jerks that
everything had seemed to work against
her In her sad married life. Her moth
er had turned against her when it was
known she was to bring another child
into the world. and had cautioned the
daughter about not getting attached to
the babe. 1t was not because she did,
MT love it that she left it here. but
because she had no place to care for
IT, Mrs jerks. Justice Clark is sure,
did not realize that she was commit
ting a crime. In fact 1t Is not thought
now that she realizes the enormity of
the offense, and that the extreme PEN
atty means five years imprisonment in
the penitentiary.

of Miller Family Was Grating.
The prominence given the Miller
family, as the result of the escapade of
Mrs. Miller and daughter, Lizzie, who
are held to the grand jury for passing
confederate money. has developed that
s. Miller the head OF the family, got
in his work before departing. A groc-
cry firm of the city now realizes that II
was worked for SO worth OF goods by
Miller, who claimed to be moving here
from Ottumwa, to have position with
the Central, and that his goods We're to
arrive the same day. AS an evidence OF
good faith and recommendation. Miller
presented to the firm what was pur-
ported to be letter of recommendation
from the mayor Of Ottumwa. The firm
now believes the letter to have been
forgery. 1t Is alleged by the firm that
there were no goods shipped to the city,
and furthermore, that Miller had no
lob. neither had he applied for one.

Cold Niuhts Prevent the Maturing OF
Sweet Corn.
The rac>riug season for sweet corn
has been delayed about a week. owing
to the recent cold nights. which have
prevented the maturing of the corn as
is necessary before the canning process

gin operations week ago, but now It
is not expected that the season will
open until the first of next week.

Standino of the Clubs.

The locals split the series in twain
yesterday by taking the last of two in
featureess and uninspiring session.
by the score of to 2. The Grays
looked like easy money favorites after
the opening round, but the closing inn
ing came so near proving their undo
ing as to cause terror in the breasts of
the assembled loyal ones. Bobby"
Warmers crew had everything coming
its way until Greene, after Black had
hit. 1illed the bases. and then forced in
the opposition's first run by betting
Chanier on the funny bone. After two
had scored. with two still on, he pulled
out pf the hole, aided by the strong de-
Tense of his pals, and the punk base
running of Chanier. After all no real
damage was DONE but the crowd got
scare for its money.
T. Greene, whose turn always seems
to come with the blowing OF strong
southwest wind. again performed on
the dust dimmed diamond yesterday.
Perhaps the wind was an aid. for the
sprightliness with which he jumped
out of holes into which the visitors and
his pals put him. was in keeping
with the briskness of the breezes. No
less than five times did keokuk trav-
erse the paths as far as second, and
twice as far as third. But cheered on
and upheld by the encouraging remarks
of his pals, he always smoked up, the
defense frightened and barring the last
inning, the visitors efforts in scoring
were wasted. Six hits were taken by
the visitors, exclusive Of the one Char
nier got it on his throwing member. but
three of them were for two bases, due
partly to the wind, which kept the
outfield guessing. Thanks are due to
j. Hoy. at short, for the keen edged
support he afforded his diminutive
terminate.
ldaviland, who was first named by
Hackett to twirl, was relieved after the
fifth inning, Green being called to the
box from short. This caused rear
rangement in the visitors lineup.
Green, however, proved no more eff
fective than his predecessor, altho
neither was basted to any great ex-
tent.
The precedent established several
weeks ago still holds good. When the
Grays score on the getaway, they in
variably win. Wilson hit safe in the
first. Williams took an inshoot in the
Stats. House sacrificed and Wilson and
Williams scored on Metcalf's drive
over short Greene, Wilson, Williams
and Hoy hit in the fifth. Greene scor-
ing.
The crowd was pouring out of the
grand stand for home, when the pro-
cession started that came near prov
ing the undoing Of the locals. Black
started it by hitting. Hackett got in
the way of .e, Greene famed Green.
and Murphy. who b3tted for Maryott,
walked and the corners were loaded.
Cyharnier crooked his elbow into hot
enc. forcing Black in. Haviland hit
last first and Hackett crossed. While
this was going on Charnier and Will
Jams became the center of stirring
event along the third base path.
C1harnier. on Haviland's hit, overran
