er. All of the players can be counted
on for scores OF under "A on the local
course for nine holes and under SS for

but It is understood that the city will
be represented. Speaking Of the match
one of the Quincy papers says:
It is hoped that good team NAV

challenge. It would be unfortunate
If, after Keokuk had the courtesy
to put up cup and issue a chal

They might get two other good
PLAYERS and get up a team Of SIX
to enter into the race. II this can
not be done perhaps Keokuk chal

after the Decatur tournament. Any
how, Quincy ought to be in the game

Lost Opportunities.

Keokuk had several excellent
chances to score during the game, but
hit was not forthcoming at the prop
er time. In the third ming Hide
brand got the second and last hit OF
the day, which was a clean drive to
right field for single. Belt hunted
and both runners were safe on a field
ers' choice and on Bluejacket's ground
er Hildebrand was forced at third.
Oyler hit to pitcher and a double play
resulted, Belt being forced at third and
Cyler retired at first. A good oppor-
tunity was cast to the waves in this
inning.
In the fifth Landry walked and got
as far as second, but there remained,
and in the seventh Miller walked and
stole second, but his team mates could
not boost things along.

The Filthy Fly.

The fly breeds and grows in filth.
1t delights in sores, decay and rutre-
faction and it carries millions of bac-
terra in its feet Thus stepped in
filth and carrying poison it lodges
perchance on meat. bread or fruit;
perhaps on the sweet, ruddy lip of the
maiden and tie dimpled cheek of the
sleeping chIld. The germs it carries
may carse typhoid fever and dysen-
terry.
The fly is denounced by modern
sanitary science as dangerous to
health as well as comfort and it is
therefore common enemy. Keep it
out of the house by screening and by
all possible means exterminate it. See
that stables are cleaned and disinfect-
ed. Leave no filth about the premises
for the fly to breed in; leave no food
uncovered for it to feed on. 1t is
hard Job to get rid of the pest en-
tirely, but perseverance will do it,
just like it has done with the mos

Thoughts On Texas-Wholesome
Water.

There are in Texas towns and even
cities that have gone on for years
without a supply of water that is
either adequate or fit for use. 1t is
unaccountable that highly enlight-
ened and progressive communities
would have thus courted the most dis
tressing epidemics while wasting
large sums of money on impractical
projects.
Instead of conventions of certain
other kinds that have been held re-
peatedly over the state until the at
mOsphere has been kept in a contin-
uous state of disturbance, how much
wiser for the people to have sent
their best men as delegates to a pure
water convention, Where ways and
means might have been discovered
by which the water problem could
