tween Burlington, Keokuk and Hanni-

deal with Jacksonville. for this season

the Hannibal team for three games, at
least two of which it expects to take.
Then it will go to Quincy for three
game series with the Gems. The Ho-
ferites have always been easy for the
Pathfinders and it is expected that the
Burlington team will fatten its aver
age in that series. Then the team
will come back to Burlington for five
straight games with Keokuk. which
is at present but two games ahead Of
Burlington.
The games with Hannibal ought to
draw big crowds and the fight with
them will be hot. But it is at the Keo-

possible
In order to make the attendance at
these games as large as possible, the
friends OF the Pahtfinders have had
printed 1000 boosters tickets. which
will be on sale at the cigar stores, and

Frank Belts outing club enjoyed a
swat fest at Ottumwa yesterday, Art
Fennell, the star utility man of the
Packers, being again victim of the
Indians terrific smuggling. His alge-
braic slants were lambasted to all
corners of the field, and several to cor
ners outside the field, Bramble and
Corridor whitfield fast ones which
sailed far over the distant fence. The
Indians won 10 to 4.
Corriden was the chief offender of
the day, and kissed the bean with
such regularity and with such force
that his batting average for the sea
son receives a noticeable boost. On
one occasion he cleared the fence, on
another he got three bases and on still
third he doubled. all for a total of
nine bases. Bramble put the ball
over right field fence, the first time
this has been done during the season
at Ottumwa. Landry came in for a
three bagger and Annis for a double.
Looks Good at Start
During the early stages of the
game the seance looked good and
both pitchers seemed going fairly well
with Brandt. in the lead. At the
end of the fourth inning the score
stood ! to j, but in the fifth Bramble
lifted a long one over the right field
fence for a homer. with the score .
to in favor of keokuk, the seventh
inning started and soon proved the
undoing of Owens men. After two hits,
errors by Graves and Senno and one
walk punched, the Indians garnished
enough runs to put the mild pastime
away on ice. With three runs in,
Thomas got on and Corridor sent one
over the fence for -four bases. Three
more hits in the eighth and like
number in the ninth gave the In
dams two more runs. Bramble pitch
