A BIG BARGAIN
IN BASEBALL
Is Being Offered at the Present Time
by Hannibal Directors to
the Many Fans.

In order that an attendance of So
900 people may be attained the Hanni-
bal baseball directors have resorted to
quite scheme to boost the figures
during the remaining six games. A
special price of $1,00 has been offered
to those who VIII purchase the booster
ticket and they are being disposed of
very readily. Speaking of the plan
the Courier-Post of that city e. VS.:
II you have not been bounced" to
buy ticket to the pennant winning
series OF ball games to be played here,
do not worry. You win be and If you
have soul SO dead to baseball thrills
that you dc not respond by purchasing

off your head. At least that is tho
opinion OF every baseball fan In Han
nibal and nearly every one that

fan. The closing campaign for the
$4,000 attendance was commenced
with flourish today, after the organi-
cation of the big committee at the
Commercial club rooms last night and
sub committees had been appointed by
Chairman Brown to cover the various
districts. Zone dollar to see Hannibal
take the pennant" is the slogan and
the disposal of two thousand bargain
ticket offers is the mark set by the
committee.
Although the proposition Is plain
ly losing one for the Hannibal Base
ball Association. the mebmefs are
taking hold with will in order to save
the pledge made on the attendance
guarantee. The plan is to get two
thousand people to buy tickets at re-
duced rates to the six deciding PEN
nant winning games to be played in
Hannibal at S1.00 for the six games.
In other words, 1t is possible to attend
the six most interesting games of the
entire season for the price of four.
The committee urges upon ticket buy
ers the Importance of getting all the
tickets they purchase into the box at
the gate, whether they attend the
games or not. as only in this way will
the attendance be incre -sed. Since
the undertaking is matter of public
pride it is expected that many will
purchase more tickets than they can
use themselves and that all who have
faith in the city of Hannibal to make
good its PROMISES will buy at least one
ticket Three hundred tickets were
disposed of in the first days canvass
by Albert Andrus, and it is expected
that other committeeman will do as
we'll. Unless tickets are turned In
at the gate, however. they will not
count for the $4,000.

big WlND-UP OF
GOLFING SEASON.
Burlington, Quincy and keokuk to
Battle on Local Links For
Tri-city Loving Cup
Saturday p. m.
E DOPE rs UNCERTAIN
Quincy's Chances Are Excellent For
the Cup, While keokuk is
Well up In the Running
For Big Prize.

The big wind-up of the golf season
In Keokuk will take place Saturday
afternoon when Burlington, Quincy
and Keokuk assemble on the local
links to give battle for the Tri-City
cup, which is now in possession of the
Burlington Country Club.
Each city will be represented by six
golfers and the eighteen players will
be paired, the score to be Nassau.
The links are in excellent condition
and while the course record is not ex-
pected to be shattered. yet some low
scores are looked for.
The Tri-City cup was purchased
early in the season by the local club
and put up as silver trophy to be
contested for by teams representing
the three cities twice each year. A
date was set for the first match and
Quincy was unable to send team ow-
Ing to the championship match at De-
catur. However, the first match was
played with Burlington and Keokuk
represented and the visitors took
home the trophy Later a match was
played between Quincy and Keokuk
for no prize and the visitors again
won. This time. or at the time OF
their visit all promised to return for
the match September -.
The dope on the match Is somewhat
uncertain, because of the three cor
nered race and the possibilities CEN
tered in the drawings. Quincy has
probably as good chance as any.

important organs hinges good
health? Many an apparently
strong. healthy man or woman
has been stricken without notice
by serious kidney and bladder
disease only to realize too late what
might have been prevented with prop

Some of the early symptoms of weak
kidneys and bladder are lumbago,
rheumatism, catarrh of the bladder.

or muscles, at times have headache or
indigestion, dizziness, you may have a
sallow complexion, puffy or dark

had heart trouble, may have plenty of
ambition but no strength, get weak
and waste away.
If you find you have some of the
symptoms mentioned, you need then
a remedy that will reach the seat of
the disease and at the same time
build up the system generally.

.BOWLERS AGAIN
LOOK TO LEAGUE
Winter Sport Already Taken up and
More Interest is Expected to
be Manifested Than
Ever Before.
IMPROVEMENTS
City Has Now Two Public Alleys
Which Are Among the Best in
This sectioon-some
Of the Gossip.

Bowling In Keokuk during the COM
Ing fall, winter and early spring is
expected to be renewed with increas-
ed interest and already members of
last years Keokuk Bowling Associa-
ton have taken to the sport and are
talking the reorganization of the
league
! The league, If one is again organ
lied, will have conditions far more
favorable than last season. The city
now has two public bowling alleys
which are about as good as any in
this section. Mineralite balls have
been added to the equipment and local
BOWERS have found in them many adj
vantages, especially for the bowlers
who rolls the slow ball and finds 1t
necessary to protest against a curve.
The new ball seems to cling closer
to the alley and maintains It's course
much better than the wooden ball.
Also the automatic pin settlers are
found in the equipment and It will be
possible to bowl tournaments in less
time than formerly.
There is also talk among local
bowlers and members of the Keokuk
Bowling Association of ruling that
the teams shall alternate on the two
alleys each frame in bowling during
the tournament. According to the
American Bowling Congress such
ruling holds, but I was disregarded
last year as matter OF convenience.
While there will be at least six
teams in the league there is talk of
larger organization and plans are
already under way for the organfza-
ton of new clubs. The personal of
the league will be somewhat changed.
There Is little doubt but what last
years records will go to the wall.
T. P. Gray, vice president of the
organization. has written to one of
the big bowling men of the country
and expects full information in few
days as to the best organization of a
league and the rules which should be
laid down. If they are in any way ap-
plicable to local conditions, many OF
them will probably be applied.

Only One Game yesterday.


Yesterdays rain WIS not local by
any means, as only one game was
played, that being at Jacksonville
where the Lunatics defeated the
league leaders by the score of 5 to 4
and putting Hannibal below Burling-
ton again. Monday Hannibal lay idle
and went to the top and yesterday
Burlington duplicated the trick. The
pennant race is assuming serious as
pect for the three leaders and the fin
ISL Is bound to be heart breaking one
for somebody. Only two games sepa-
rate the three leaders and Hannibal
and Keokuk have six games with
each other, three at each place, max
ing it extremely likely that Burling-
ton will pull out ahead by narrow
margin If the Indians and Cannibals
break even. Burlington has the best
of the argument at present by four
points, with IA more games to play.
Hannibal has an even dozen contests
to engage In and if both teams play
out the remainder of their scheduled
games and win them all Burlington
will win by one game. If Hannibal
wins all and Burlington loses one, the
Pathfinders will still be two points to
the good Therefore if Burlington
does not lose two more games than
Hannibal does of the remaining
games, Egan will win the pennant
But Kewanee may put crimp in Bur-
lington, as there are still four games
to be played there in two days and the
Boilermakers are almost unbeatable
on their own lot. If Keokuk can
take a majority of games from Han
nibal and Kewanee trims Burlington
today and tomorrow the Indians will
still be in the race to the last gasp
and it is hard matter right now to
give much preference to any of the
