The Country club was a quiet
place today and will be so this even
Ing, that is in comparison with the
Saturday activity of the past two
months. Owing to the circus there
was not the usual number OF visitors
at the links and the club house, al
though above thirty have made ar
rangements to remain for supper this
evening. 1t is expected that many viii
enjoy the afternoon and eat supper
and go from the golf grounds direct
to the circus grounds There were a
number of golf matches played this
afternoon but 1t was impossible to
set the handicap golf match started.
Don't miss the opening game OF
the Ottumwa-Keokuk series Monday.
j w. Steiger and NJ Garmo ar
rived home last evening from the
Elks convention at Los Angeles, and
Charles Lawson arrived yesterday
morning. al OF the Keokuk delega-
ton is no" home excepting Charles
Mcmillan, who is visiting in Denver.
The trips seemed to agree with the
Keokuk men, all of whom report hav.
ing gained ten pounds in weight dur
ing the month in the west. excepting
Judge Bell. who was heavy enough
when he started. He reported having
dropped thirty.
With four days yet to serve on a
thirty day sentence for petit larceny,
Max Walsh escaped from the county
jail about $50 O'Clock this morning.
and after prolonged chase by Turn
key Crimmins. finally eluded pursuit
and crossed the bridge into Illinois.
Walsh was carrying out some rub
hish. and when he reached the en-.
trance dropped what he was carrying
and hurried through the gate and
down Concert street Tim Crimmins
noticed the act but had to turn the
lock in the jail door in order that the
ether prisoners could not get away.
and then started in pursuit of the
fleeing man. Crimmins gained steadi.
~ on his man and it looked for time
as If he would capture him and that
it would only be matter of time.
Walsh evaded persnit by making turns
and finally disappeared in large
brick barn near Seventh. between Con.
cert and High street. His pursuer
thought that he was Kidding in the
barn which he had entered and by the
time a search was made Walsh had
escaped. 1t was later learned that he
had crossed the bridge.
