The annual Centerville excursion
brought to the city today 1,1b3 visitors
from southern Iowa towns, along the

special trains of eight coaches each,
and the Fifty first Regiment band,
led by G. E. Landers, under whose
auspices the excursion was run, a.c-
companied the second train. The fist
train pulled into the union station at
1855 o'clock, and had on board 1853
passengers, all of whom were from
Abba, where the train started and
Oskaloosa. The second train reached
here at 11:20 o'clock and carried about
400 passengers, from Centerville, Ed
dyville, Coalfield and other stations Of
the Abba and Centerville branch. Both
trains made the trip without incident
or accident. A large number of the
excursionists brought with them their
dinners. and these went to the Soldiers
Home grounds, where the band gave
concert this afternoon. Others visited
with friends about the city, or re-
manned in the business section Some
few went to the county fair grounds.
The number brought on the excursion
this year, while not as large as some
other years, was very representative.
crowd Roth trains will leave from the
union station early this evening.

STANDING Of the Clubs.

Burlington. Sept. 1S.-The apa thy
that surrounded yesterdays game at
Athletic park was thick enough to cut
with a knife. Marshalltown was here
or the final series, and the attendance
looked like hangers on around small
box camp. Marshalltown won handily
by to 2, simply because they out
played Burlington, altho Armstrong for
the locals worked hard at every stage.
Bockewitz the man who is usually
easy for Burlington, was not so easy
yesterday and five hits was the best
Burlington could do John House was
officiating behind the bat, Green played
first base and Killian in the field, crip-
ping the local squad considerably
Marshalltown was not much better Off,
playing two pitchers in the field. The
game was pretty much of Sunday
supplement turnout and If 1t had not
been so warm, the spectators would
have nd doubt gone to sleep. Arm
strong could not be blamed for falling
down in the ninth, as his support was
Indifferent enough to discourage any,
body. On the other hand, Bockewitz's
backing was there all the time good
and strong. The one -handed stop by
Annis Of Citizens hard drive, and John
Houses contortions behind the bat
were the features Of the game.
A base on balls and a sacrifice hit
and a two Dagger gave the Brownies
one in the first. Three singles and an
error by House gave them another in
the third, and four singles and some
more delsarte by John House gave
them three more in the ninth.
Burlington was saved the disgrace OF
a shutout in the same inning. Daley
walked and scored on Kelley's two base
hit Richards singled, scoring Kelly,
but that's the best the locals could get
out of the game. The score in detail:

cooler tonight and Wednesday.
The busiest place in Marshall county
today is the fair grounds. There a
tented city has been raised to house the
special exhibits and care for the over
Row from the pavilions erected for the
annual Marshall county fair, which be-
gins tomorrow.
Today was billed as the first day OF
the fair, but the time has been devoted
to the installation Of exhibits, including
new pens for the thrush of fine stock,
and the placing of the displays in the
art halls. People on the grounds who
have attended many of the Iowa coun-
ty fairs this year declare that none
equal this enc, either in the number or
the quality OF the exhibits. This is
especially true of the machinery and
buggy exhibits and of the swine de-
partment. Many of the products of
Marshalltown factories are on display,
as are the products of the farms, all
most all the available space on the
grounds being taken by makers and
jobbers and stock raisers. 1t was nee
essary to erect a large tent today to
care for the overflow from the cattle
and horse barns.

One Of the secret processes which mas

The secret of making Russian sheet

when workman enters the service he

friends, and, whether he lives Or dies,

have been several desperate attempts
made to steal or bctray the secret, bur
