has changed to a tri-state circuit. Mon

striving for tie $4,000 mark, while the

to fare well financially, as the different

expenses on the road, as the mileage
is considerably lower than in previous
years.

KEOKUK REPEATS

Second Time In History Of League the
Indians Are Conquerers in
First Game.

For the second time in the history
of the league game in Keokuk, the
Indians have won the opening lame.
The first time occurred last season,
when Belts men defeated Waterloo in
this city.
During the life of the old Iowa
league and during the reign of the
Central association the Indians went
year after year, always losing the first
game Last season the ice was brok

keokuk Motor Boat Club VIII Not be
Able to Lease River Front
Land Until Finances

MEETING THIS EVENING
Members Of the Boat Club. to Meet
at the keokuk Club-Lisht
Question on the
Fire.

AS a club, the Keokuk Motor Boat
association will not be granted the
privilege of leasing the river front be-
tween Main and Blondeau streets, and
those who own motor boats and wish
to lease the frontage for their boats
must do so as individuals. This was
the ultimatum reached between the
city and the members of the Keokuk
Motor Boat club at called meeting
last evening. An individual wishing
to rent certain space along the shore
OF the river will have to get the privi-
lege from the city until the finances
are better established, which will be
a year or two This will of course ma
terially decrease the membership of
the club. as by the former plan of the
clubs leasing the land from the city
and then renting it to its members
who would be compelled to join the
motor boat club,>it would be necessary
for all who wished space for their
boats on the waters edge to become
a club member.

The Calm of GaIiIee.

The calm of Galilee on a perfect
morning of spring is like no other
calm have ever known. 1t is gentler,
sweeter than the wonderful calm of
the desert. There you seem to be
coming into the very presence of God
the Father. AS you draw near to
Galilee, it is as if, with the handful
of humble fishermen, you drew near to
God the Son. Galilee takes your hand
as friend, and draws you to it. 1t
seems to breathe upon you and give
you peace.-Century.

A Trip of Hardships.


The old gentleman is one of the
most interesting characters that the
city has harbored on one-night stand
for a long time. The fact alone that
he was able to make the trip from
Muscatine to Keokuk, a distance of
105 miles, by foot, stands as a marvel
of his wonderful determination. But
the trip was not without its hardships
Crippled with inf1ammatory rheuma-
tism, for which he was being treated
in Montreal, he was at times almost
unable to proceed further on his our

him to plod onward Wednesday night

WHO Is THE OLDEST
MAN AT THE MEETINGs

OF the Leading Candfdates-EI
PasO Also in the Field.

Eeny-meeny-m inymo, who is the
Oldest banker in attendance upon

Bankers association? Otto Groos,
president of the Kyle Bank of
Kyle, Texas, who has been in the bank
ing business for seventeen years. adj
mits being 81 years old, but he accuses
j. N Brown, OF the Alamo bank
or San Antonio, of being his senior by
nearly half score years. 1t probably
lies between Mr. Groos and Mr. Brown
as to who is the elder of the visiting
bankers, but FL Paso can probably
furnish the patriarch of the bankers in
the person Of Joshua Reynolds, presi-
dent Of the First National bank, VINO
has been in the banking business in

To determine who is the Youngest
banker in attendance upon the conven-
ton would require carefully tabuIated
record of years, months, weeks and
days and possibly the hour when the
contestants first saw the light" As a
matter of fact the bankers are q re-
