corriden Starts Things.

In the opening round Ottumwa went
out in one, two, three order. Landry
pulled down hard fly near the line
by Russell, Mclaughlin hit an easy
one to Prough and was thrown out at
first and Link, the catcher who was
used in right field, struck out. In
Keokuk's turn Grodnick struck out
and Annis was thrown out by the
shortstop. Just to start things Corri-
den bumped the leather for clean
single to left, his first of three hits
for the day. Reichle skied to cen
ter and the side was retired.
in the second session Ottumwa got
a hit and the Indians sent out two
safe ones good for tally. Wise flew
out to Landry and Reeve singled to
left, going to second when Landry let

When Mertens somes to Keokuk it
is not known what changes will take
place in the team If any are made.
With a view to the pennant Merters
would be a valuable man and would
greatly bolster up the Indians chances
to land the flag.
Mertens Is well known to Keokuk
fans for he played during last season
with the Quincy team and was the
leading hitter and fielder Of the league.
He took part in 113 games and hit at
a .2s1 clip. The big fellow was regard
ed as the best fielder in the Central
Association. At the end of the sea-
son he was sold to Minneapolis and
was in turn sent to Des Moines. Mer-
tens is still with Des Moines but has
not been playing of late, an old favor
lite being retained at the present time
With Mertens in the outfield as a
running mate OF Ed. Reichle Keokuk
would have the hardest hitting outfield
in the league and with the pitchers go
ing we'll the team would have an ex-
cellent chance for the bunting.

Games Tomorrow

Hildebrand, the peerless three base
hitter and speed man Of the Keokuk
team, got in one of his favorite bingles
yesterday in the sixth inning with
three men on bases which broke up |
the conflict and made victory easy for
the Indians. Ottumwa had been max
ing q. strong bid up to this time, but !
in the sixth two hits and an infield
error filed the bases. Hildebrand
then smote the ball far to left center
and was not headed Until Rube Burch
called him to halt at third base.
Keokuk won the argument, 6 to l,
Keokuk's end of the run making be-
ing the same as in the first two games
with Ottumwa.
With the exception of Burlington's
victory. which places them at the top
of the percentage column, the games
yesterday combined to aid Keokuk in
the standing. Quincy lost and has
caused more daylight between third
and fourth place. Hannibal blew a
close game to Kewanee and are pulled
from their high position. Only sixty
two points separate Keokuk and Bur-
lington and Hannibal is two points
behind the Pathfinders.
Close Battle for Five Innings.
The game started out to be fair
ly good pitchers battle between
Prough and Powers and for the first
four innings honors were about even.
Prough had allowed five hits and one
run and Keokuk had obtained four
safe ones off Powers and also one run.
After the fourth inning things took
just an opposite turn for the opposing
pitchers. Prough pitched air tight
ball and for five innings in row did
not allow man to reach first base.
He had everything and was very eff
fective. Powers weakened percept-
ably and was touched up for num-
her of timely bingles, the Indians find
ing the big southpaw for seven dur
ing this period. Several errors by the
Ottumwa men aided Keokuk, but most
Of the runs were made by punching
hits Three of Keokuks hits went for
two bases and Hildebrands drive
netted three.

Helu ICr Two bases. H1ldebrand sim
gled after Landry had gone to third
on a pass ball by Fennell, and Landry
scored. Belt hit to Powers and was
thrown out at first. Hildebrand made
a dash for third but was caught on
his slide, the side being retired on the
double play.
Belt Throws Well.
In the third inning Fennell led of
with a hit and tried to steal on "Pa"
Belt. The veteran catcher made a
perfect peg and the Ottumwa catcher
was caught easily. Powers struck out
and Russell hit one past first. Nc
Laughlin went out Grodnick to Miller.
In Keokuk's half three Of the Indians
We're on bases at one time awaiting
hit but it did not come, the situa.
tion resulting from Corriden's hit and
base on balls issued to Landry and
Hildebrand after Reichle had sacri-
feed Corridor to second and Miller
had gone out, pitcher to first. Belt
came to bat with the bases full and
hit fast one to third. It looked like
the ball might escape Wise, but he
smothered 1t and threw the Keokuk
catcher out at first.
In the fourth Ottumwa got two hits,
one clean single and the other a ball
between first and second which pulled
Miller of the base and left first I'M
covered. No damage was done for
Prough frightened and held the visitors
safe. During the last five innings the
big fellow was invincible and not 2
man reached first base. The Packers
were simply powerless before his
great delivery and his slow ball and
deceptive out drop proved severe
stumbling block. Prough struck out
nine batsmen during the game and
did not issue free pass.
Three Dagger Did Things.
In the sixth inning Hildebrand, who
had driven in the first run, broke up
the gentle pastime and put Keokuk
all to the good. Reichle hit fast
one almost over second base. Brand
made sensational stop of the ball
but was unable to throw Reichle out
at first, the umpire declaring the big
center fielder safe on close play, al
thought it took fast sprinting. Mil
Ter hit to third and Wise fumbled the
ball. Landry pulled off the prettiest
4 bunt of the season, the ball going to
| the left of Powers and to a spot In
the infield where there was nobody
Hildebrand then came forward with
his timely swat. He hit high one
which travelled far beyond the fielders
and had he been pushed he had q
chance to come home. Three men
scored on the drive. In the seventh
inning Corriden got his third hit Of
the day, which was two Dagger. a
single by Reichle scored him from sec
ond. In the eighth Keokuk made one
more run. Hildebrand walked fol
the second time during the game
Belt hit to third and Wise made
second bobble, after Hildebrand hat
! differed second. Belts grounder bound
ed far from Wise's glove and Hide
brand was able to come home on thu

Corriden played great game yes
terday and the error credited agains
him was on a throw to second to fore
a runner. He threw wide to Annis
allowing the man to reach the bag

VATIoNS TO BE OPENED
BY LOTTERY.

Washington, Aug. 1l.--Another
opening Indian lands will be or

tober, drawing to take place imme-
diately following the registration Pc
riod.
Those lucky persons in this great
territory will not be required to make

United States OF America" and I'm the

cd by circle OF thirteen links. This
chain design did not meet with favor,
and in the same year the wreath de-
sign was adopted In its place, which
In general style was continued until

continued in 1857. Another form of
the wreath was used on the white
metal cent Of 1857, and the inscription
United States Of America" was placed
around the representation of the fiy-
Ing eagle on the diverse.
In the latter part of 1893 a Liberty
cap and pole were placed alongside the
head OF Liberty, which style lasted un-
I'll 1875, In which year the lettered edge
was adopted.
In 1876 the same general form was
continued, the cap and pole were omit
ted and the hair of Liberty was tied
with ribbon, the bust being partly
draped. From 1897 until 1907 no ma
terlal change was made In the design
OF the cent, but in 1908 q radical change,
was made in the diverse design.
The head of Liberty was now faced
to the left and represented with bound
hair. On her forehead was a diadem
inscribed Liberty" Around the border
appeared thirteen stars. This design
lasted until 1916, when a new style of
Liberty appeared, not quite so hand
some as its predecessor.
The latter design with minor altera-
tions continued in use until 1857 when
the flying eagle design was adopted
The latter continued for two years and
then the first of the Indian head cents
appeared in the latter part OF 1853. This
was the design of Mr.. Longacre and has
been used continuously up to the pres
ent time with slight notifications.
The Indian head on all the coins of
this design have faced to the left. Tho
head of Lincoln on the new cent faces
to the right. This is in accordance
with long established custom among
coin makers Of placing the head of a
new coin in the opposite direction to
that of Its predecessor. Whether this
was done Intentionally or not In the
case Of the cent is not known. The
custom is said to have originated in
Europe, the head of the living sovereign
always being placed in the opposite
direction to that on the coins of his
predecessor.

Considering the smaI1 percentage OF
winners, Fargoans have been very
lucky at the opening Of the Occur
d'Aiene reservation. The list OF north
western winners. as received by teIe-
graph by The Forum today, contains
the names Of Miss Anna c. Anderson
and Miss Nellie L. Drew.
Miss Anderson was. up to the middle
OF last month, engaged as stenographer
with Park, Grant s. Morris. when she
left for a western trip. She regis
tered for the opening and her name
was pulled out No. 666 Miss Ander-
son resides at 1886 Seventh avenue
south, with her brother. She will re-
turn from the west shortly and take up
work
Miss Drew is teacher In the Lin
coin school. She registered while
touring the west and although her
number is 1903 it is believed that
should she desire land. that sufficient
will not file TO make her chances good.
The telegraphic reports Tuesday
contained the name of John Golberg,
Fargo, whose name was drawn No. 80.
No one in the city appears to know the
lucky gentleman and it Is surmised
that possibly he heard about the place
and likes IL so well that he claims II
for his residence,
TITS the best recommendation that
person can have when travelling,

EIGHT MILLIoNAIREs DEAD,
Many Wealthy Men Of Thaw Church
Have succumbed Since Wrangle.

Pittsburg, Pa. Aug. 11.-Gossip in the
Third Presbyterian church, from which
alvin Wells, millionaire. and former
owner OF the Philadelphia Press, was
buried last week, brought to light a
remarkable sequence of deaths Of ricn
men in this church since the occupa-
tion of the present elaborate building.
The Third Presbyterian church is
known as the Thaw church, all MEM
bers of that family being members of
II. The congregation formerly occu-
pied a less pretentious church in the
downtown district, and ten years ago
Harry X. Thaw, Alice Thaw. Josiah
Copeley Thaw, and Edward Thaw, all
children of Mrs. William Thaw, fixed
the church up.
For some reason many of the rich
became dissatisfied with this building
and 1t was decided after several
stormy meetings to remove to the
East End district and build another
church. Among those who took part
in these discussions were A. M. Byers,
Calvin Wells, John HI. Stulen, Samuel
Wilcox, William Bakewell John
Rose, William OHM and Col. W. A.
Heron. Mr. Wells was the last of
this party OF millionaires to die. The
aggregate wealth of these eight men
was $1O0,OO0,000.
