GRAVEYARD TO
Be GOLF GAME
Golfers VIII Participate in New and
Novel Golf Game at County
Club Links Saturday
Afternoon
HOW GAME is PLAYED
Handbags Will be Figured In and
Player Whose Card is Last
Buried Will be Declared
Winner.

Graveyard" will be the golf game
on the Keokuk County Club links
Saturday afternoon. 1t will be game
OF dead ones and the player whose
card is buried nearest the home flag,
or who gets farthest along in his
second round will be declared win
ner. 1t is a tournament in which the
regular club handicaps will figure,
and wide interest promises to be
taken in the novel match.
1t is a new game to Keokuk play
ers and an explanation of it would
not go amiss. Each player will be
given forty strokes, which Is DOGGY,
plus his club handicap on nine holes.
Special cards will be procured and
on these will be written the players
name. Each player starts at No. /
and plays until he has exhausted
the number of strokes he is entitled
to- AT the spot where his ball lies at
the completion of the final stroke he
must bury his card just deep enough
so that it will stand in the ground
and can be seen. Thus IL player
has eight stroke handicap that will
entitle him to forty-eight strokes.
His card must be buried at the spot
where the ball lies when the forty
eighth stroke is completed. It is esti-
mated that if players go in their us
ual form the cards will be buried
somewhere between No. and No. g..
However, many players may bury in
the ditch between eight and nine
while still others will likely complete
nine holes and continue on their sec
ond round. A golf bah will be the
prize. The handicap committee will
likely have a revised handicap ready
at the club in the afternoon and

WORKED COLD DECK
sas ON FRANKLIN
DonnelIson Newspaper Rejoicing over
Defeat Of Ball Club by kco-
kuk Last Sunday.

Donnellson Review contains the fol
lowing eulogy of the county baseball
team that trimmed Franklin last
Saturday:
The ball game came off last Sunday
at Franklin as scheduled. True. they
busted tire at Donnellson on the
way over, but otherwise everything
was lovely and serene. Not trelly
pole few off nor fiat wheel could
be heard along the route But what
surprised us most was that the Keo-
kuk and Madison bunch actually won
out In the game. But it wasn't a
square deal, as they introduced cold
deck in the shape of three profes-
sionals. OF course to get into the
game these professionals had to asso-
ciate with bunch of politicians all
day, but they seemed equal to the &C.
casion and did not lose their nerve.
and everything else of value they left
at home If John Neff can play as
good a game at ball as he can pitch
/ horseshoes, and they had brought him
along, of course we would have bet on
them, but we sized up the layout and
aside from the three strangers. who
! looked suspicious. the balance looked
too plethoric, too near on the verge
OF an attack of govt to play ball: and
| in fact the three done the business
but the bunch carried off the glory.
Franklin can put up good game OF
ball, but you can't expect crowd that
/ plays for recreation once a week to
/ run up against league players and
make bowling success of it. Then
again we understand that the visiting
! crowd had sent up two big bags oil
/ peanuts In advance, but with their
| official seal on them stating that they
| were not to be released until after
! the game, and the Franklin crowd
/ were in undue haste to get at those
peanuts, and hurried matters more
than they ought.
We are really sort of glad they beat
! as under the circumstances it does
not reflect any on Franklin, and that
i score of II to will be treasured vi
! in the memory Of the county seal
bunch, and will be handed down tc
their ancestors even unto the third
and fourth generation.

Monmouth has allied itself with

the Galesburg club by protesting the
game won by Hough's men on July
81 Following are today's develop

Monmouths protest did not come

possible that the Browns would not

1t not been for Belts action.

/ burg club Akers received telegram
ordering him to report at once. He
took an early train for the northern
city. Before leaving he stated that
Dubuque had sent him to Kearney,
Neh. but that he had been released
by that club.
The decision by Justice will now
be based upon the contract under
which Dubuque sent the player to the
I Nebraska city. If there was an op
tional agreement then Dubuque owns
4 the player and the suspension would
likely hold good. However, the
status Of the case is not entirely
4 clear here because several material
points are missing.

Got TO Proush Just Twice,


The Galesburg bunch got to Willie
Prough in two rounds and defeat can
hardly be attributed to any of his
support. A base on balls launched
the first run in the second when
Prough passed KomTers. Kommers
pilfered second when Belt tried to
catch him between the bases and
threw low. Blausser struck out and
Brand, who has been digging into the
ball viciously while here, pounded
one to left for double but was caught
trying to stretch it into triple.
Kommels scored and Shea ambled up
with two sacker In his bat, which
also went to left. Tanning went out,
Collins to Miller.
The argument was clinched in the
fifth when a scratch hit and two
singles to center entered the fray.
Shea led off with one over second and
Tanning hunted drive past Prough.
Had the pitcher been quicker he
might have handled the ball and
caused double, but he didn't Then
Sensenbach hit to Collins, Shea took
third, but Tanning was forced at
second, so that Lotshaw's single which
followed was good for but one run
During the last four innings Prough
allowed but one hit.

TELEPHONE FIGHT ON.
Justice Whitehouse Grants Writ of In
junction Against Duluth Company.

An Interesting fight between tele-
phone companies operating in the city
Of Duluth, Wis. is TO be fought out
in certain If its phases in the Maine
courts for the reason that two OF the
corporations involved We're organized
under the laws of Maine. Associate
Justice Whitchousc Of this city Sat
urday ordered a writ of injunction
against the Zenith Telephone Co, Will
liam NJ. Hubbard and F. H. DeGroat,
enjaining them from taking any steps
in connection with the holding of the
annual meeting of the stockholders OF
the Zenith Telephone Co., which is
scheduled to be held in this city Mon
day. Jan. 10.
The Injunction ordered was prayed
for bv the Lake Shore Telegraph &
Telephone Co, corporation organ
lied in 1901 under the laws of the state
of Wisconsin. -Four telephone COM
NAMES figure in the situation. The
Zenith City Telephone Co of Duluth.
a Wisconsin corporation, is holding
company and owns all the stock of the
Zenith Telephone Co.. the latter being
organized under the laws of the State
of Maine. The last named company
which was organized in 1904 and OF
which William NJ. Hubbard is presl-
dent and F. H. DeGroat, secretary, is
the defendant in the bill in equity
praying for the granting OF the injunc-
ton.
The Tri- State Telephone & Telegraph
Co. is another Maine organized corpo-
ration operating in a group of North
western states and capitalized at $6,-
900, 600 which owns the majority stock
of the smaller Lake Shore Co. Both
of these corporations are independent
of the Bell Telephone interests.
The bill in equity alleges that the
Tri-State Telephone & Telegraph Co.
is the owner of all the physical prop
critics of the Zenith Telephone Co. and
that the officers of the Zenith Tele-
phone CO. are attempting to dispose of
the franchises to the Bell Telephone
Co. interests. The bill in equity filed
in the Kennebec county superior court
covers Is typewriter pages, but the
main controversy is over the election
of officers of the Zenith Telephone Co.
for the ensuing year and the posses
sion of the physical properties of the
Zenith Co. I-
The controversy between these COM
panies has been carried on, for over a
year in the circuit andA appellate
courts of Wisconsin before reaching
the Maine courts. The counsel for the
corporation asking for the injunction,
the Lake Shore Telegraph & Telephone
Co. are Frank L. Dutton of this city
