Now comes the crowning event of
the season on the western slope. the
thirteenth annual road race between
Basalt and Glenwood Springs on Sun
day, August l4th. Each race has
been better than the previous one and
this years will undoubtedly be the
biggest one of them all. In all the
past years not one of the riders has
ever complained of unfair treatment.
and the fact that the manager and
promoter of each one of these races
is Mr. c. NJ. Keck. passenger agent of
the Colorado Midland at Glenwood
Springs, is sufficient evidence that
every rider gets a square deal. Its
the cleanest sport ever introduced on
the western slope. and If you look for

HIGH LINE HOME
SEEKERS MUST
WAIT TWO YEARS

Already there has started In this
direction a stream of homeseekers
who purpose taking up and settling
on land which will come under the
High Line canal, but they viii be met
with disappointment when they find
that the land will not be available for
that purpose for long time yet.
A Denver press dispatch has the
following:
Although hundreds of inquiries are
already being received for land under
the proposed $2.j00,0O0 High Line
canal and homesteaders are begin
ming to drift this way II may be we'll
to inform prospective homeseekers
that no land can be taken up under
this project for at least two years.
Undoubtedly the beginning of work
on the big project will ttract thou
sands of investors to the Grand VAL
ley, many of whom will invest in
bearing orchard land but following
out the announced policy of the rec
lamation service. none of the acreage
of the High Line canal can be taken
up until water is available for irriga-
tom
There are approximately so, 900
acres TO be watered by the hig canal.
None Of this is now open for settle
ment. All of it has been filed upon,
either as dry land or as homesteads.
However. there will still be land in
'lenty to be taken up. The filings
now on the land will be set aside as
the unit will be cut down to forty
acres. The filings are for 1GO and
$50 acres and many of these are
Illegal. Hundreds of people filed on
the land and made no further at
tempt to comply with the conditions
imposed by Uncle Sam, so that they
have lost their title TO the property.
No effort was made to practice dry
farming on this land and the growing
OF crops by irrigation of course is i'm
practicable except from under the
proposed canal, Consequently there
will be between $4,000 and 10000
acres, which can be entered upon
when the project is completed. d.
w. Aupperle, the man who is general
ly credited with bringing about the
appropriation of the High Line. is of
the opinion that water will be turned
upon the land by the spring of 1913.
The reclamation service has al
ready GIVEN its approval to the prof.
ect The land which will be open to
hotnesteaders is as fine orchard soil
as there is in the country. Sone of

WAS BORN IN ENGLAND
Came to this Country in the Fore
Part of the Sixties and Was
Many Years in Railroad
Service.

This afternoon at 140 o'clock, &C.
CURED the death of Walter Greaves at
his home. 1116 Main street, after an
illness of several months. Death came
from complication of ailments, due
principally to heart trouble. Although
in poor health, he was prepared for
death, which he knew must come soon,
several days ago having prepared
some of the principal data of his life
for use in his family.
The deceased was born at Stalet
Bridge, near Manchester, England,
July 5, 1899. He came to this coun-
try in July, 1864, when young man
and about 1867 came to Keokuk where
for many years, except during the
time that he lived in Centervill,
about fifteen years, he had resided
BY occupation he was mechanic,
having spent twenty-one years of his
life in railroad work, being employed
by the c., B. & c., the Rock Island and
the Wabash railroads. In his home
are many paintings which he has
made and which were sketched by
him during his spare moments In
this art he was possessed of rare
talent and had he developed it, would
have pronounced him among the best.
He was a member of the Westminster
Presbyterian church, also of the Ma
sonic lodge of Centerville.
Those who survive this aged and
well known gentlemen in death are
his children, Joseph, of this city; Mrs.
Thomas Dennison of Brazil, Ia; Mrs.
Minnie Reynolds of Ottumwa; George
of this city, and Mrs. Hattie Midlin of
Brazil.
The funeral services will beheld on
Sunday afternoon, just what hour had
not been set when this paper was
published this afternoon. Friends will
please omit flowers.

Arrived Last Night From keosauqua
and is Prepared to Take Charge
of Indians When They
Come
TAKE PLACE OF UTILITY
Belt Believes that If He Can Keep
Ball Players in shape there
Will be no Need for
an Extra Man.

Trainer e. Markley arrived from
Keosauqua last evening and will be
ready to take up his work of keeping
the ball players in condition as soon
as they arrive for the spring workout.
Markley has had quite wide ex.
perience as a trainer and is we'll fitted
for work of this kind. He was with
the Keokuk team for about two weeks
last season during a road trip and If
fans will remember distinctly, success
attended the ball players.
If Markley proves the man Belt
thinks he will it is likely he will be
retained during the entire season. The
manager is of the opinion that tho
trainer can take the place of utility
man, and thus no extra expense will
be added. With the ball players in
such shape that they can play contin-
uously day after day the team in gen.
eral will be greatly benefited and the
best results obtained. Atleast Mark
ley will be retained during the spring
training.

er duty will be more along medical
lines and will comprise attending play
ers injured in sliding or struck on the
fingers with balls. There will be
plenty of work, but he should be able
to get the pitchers in good shape at
an early date.
The report was current today that
Hildebrand has arrived in the city, but
such is not the case. Few of the ball
players will arrive before Sunday at
the earliest.

Of Thomas Fightmaster, charged with

al of them agree that the little ham
lie It's pretty we'll worked up over the
case involving families which have
practically spent the best part of
their lives there.
Fightmaster will take the stand,
but at what hour it is impossible to
say. In the chair which he is daily
filing in the court room, the defend
ant presents an interesting study, but
one FAR different from man charged
with being the author of crime Of

to secure much of tan. Die nature
as to his side of the story. He seems
to think that the church people of
