A Happy Reunion for the pease,s

A Happy Reunion for the Pease's.
The following will be of interest to
local relatives and friends, taken from
FIT Madison exchange: On Sunday,
July 10, at Maple Grove farm, the old
homestead, near Mt. Hamill, occurred
the reunion Of the Boyd E. Pease fam
lily. This was rare event for those
concerned, in view of the fact that this
family of ten members has been wide
ly separated for thirty years. All of
them are living except one sister, Mrs.
Maris, who died in 1890. Those
present were: Raymond S., of Mt.
hamill, Iowa; Alfred M, of Van
couver B. c.; Frank B.. of Burke,
Idaho; Edmund L., of Keokuk, Iowa
Boyd e. of La Crew, Iowa; Mrs.
Chas. Beard, Mt. Hamill, Iowa; Mrs.
W. E. Dinsmore, Missoula, Mont; Mrs,
O. X. Davis, Butler, Mo-; Mrs. w. ].
Williamson, Primrose, Iowa. The de.
ceased sister was represented by her
only son, Hoadly B. Maris of Silver
ton, Colo.
There were also pres mt twenty
grandchildren, besides three great
grandchildren, one son and two
daughters of Mrs. Grace Lewis, of
Vancouver, B. G.
This was day long to be remem-
bered, and as the participants go to
their respective homes and vocations
they can look back on the occasion
with fond recollections of childhood

President M. E. Justice has sent
out letters to directors in the Central

the newspapers an effort be made to
show an increase over these figures

Los Angeles Sheriff Arrived Last
Night for the Man Sheriff Grim
Minis Captured Week Ago
Sunday.
AN INTERESTING RECORD
Martins Undoing Was Girl Who
Give Him Away Because he
Paid Attention to Another
DamseI.

]. o. Murry, sheriff Of Los Angeles,
CAL, arrived in the city last night and
expects to leave again this evening
for the west with a prisoner, Harry
(Tony) Martin, the man arreated a
week ago last Sunday by Deputy Sher-
iff Crimmins in the west end of the
city
Though blackened with crime, the
record of Martin Is an interesting one,
and in listening to the unwinding OF
a tale of m!sdeeds of the paroled con-
vict today, one would be able to write
a book of no small proportions of the
past life of Martin, the jail bird, this
evening to be removed from the coun-
ty Jail in this city and to be taken
west to again stand trial and returned
to prison for term that will not be
less than thirty years, says the Off
cial who has come to get the man.
Has "Rcped in" Dozens.
During the present year, Martin has
forged checks for amounts running
all the way from a hundred to three
hundred dollars. 1t was a girl who
gave him away to the police officers
| in California, who captured him and
then lost him again as he walked
through their midst undisguised and
bought a ticket at the Los Angeles
depot for Keokuk.
Martin had four or five girls ION the
string" in the west and it was for
the purpose of seeing girl that he
came to this city. He has served sew
eral terms in the penitentiary and
has been measured by the Bertillion
system on more than one occasion.
Martin mad foreign companion
With whom he roomed in Los Angeles
This foreigner would receive money by
ntail from his native land, but before
it would ger into his hands, Martin
would cali at the postoffice and sigr
for tie registered letter containing the
money. The postoffice department de
tectives and plain clothes men got
busy and through one of Martins girls
who became jealous of him when he
paid attentions to another, gave him
away.
Above are Just few of the threads
IL the long string of episodes which
are wound around life of crimina
doings on the part of Tony Martin
and the bringing to justice again oil
another bad man by local officers.

CHICAGO, July 20.-Wheat-Local
traders are still strongly bullisk and
respond quickly to bull foreign adj
vices and strength of Liverpool.
Weather map shows clear In the north
west with like condition in the fore
cast. Foreign advices indicate more
bul!ish sentiment abroad with the pos
sihility of foreign markets coming up
more nearly to an export basis. Coun-
try offerings of wheat are on the in
crease, but so far hedges are not bur-
densomc and are easily taken care of
by large professional spectators. The
Patten interest which has been most
consistently bullish for months is
showing disposition to sell wheat
on hard spots. we feel that current
prices discount crop losses and would
sell December on hard spots.
Corn-Light offerings and general
demand from commission houses
helped prices. Although apparently
ample rains have fallen during the
past ten days. spectators are dis

ed and even though crop reports are
fattering. local sentiment is bullish.
The strength in wheat has forced the
covering of good deal of short corn.
Under the leadership of the Bartlett
Frazier interest bull spectators arc
making an effort to force the covering
of big short lines.
Oats-Oats were affected by the &C.
ton of other grains. A small demand
for July developed congestion. Light
receipts and small stocks may. cause
higher prices. Country offerings of
August shipment continue large and
hedging pressure on deferred deliver
les is steadily increasing. We believe
sales of September and December will
be profitable after July delivery is out
of the way
Professionalism receipts continue
liberal. Opening prices were ten cents
lower. Demand from scattered shorts
and packers gave the market firmer
tone. Speculative interest is of a
small scale, packers will undoubtedly
be sellers on hard spots, as cash de-
mand is slow and hedging operations
are increasing. We believe provisions,
particularly the deferred deliveries are
a sale on all hard spots.

Hushle Miller contradlcts Story Of
Trouble With Belt or Any Other
One Of tho keokuk

DEVELOPMENTS TODAY
Belt Forced to Cut Down List and
Jaeger Was Logical Man to
Go-Lucky Egan Gets Fast
Outfielder.

Pitcher Jaeger's release, Secretary
Farrell's decision in the Ochs case
awarding that player to Ottumwa and
contradiction by Hughie Miller of
the alleged trouble between him and
Manager Belt or any other member
of the Keokuk baseball. association
were principal developments in sport
circles today.
Jaeger's release came last night af-
ter he had performed rather meagre-
ly in the afternoons Keokuk-Quinc
encounter, in which he was driven
from the mound in the third inning.
1t was not because he was knocked
out of the box that his release came
for many twirlers suffer that hui
initiation during their careers-but
rather because Belt Is forced to get
within the limit, and Jaeger was the
logical man to go.
He is good t,yfrler, however, and
far better right now than many wno
are holding down berths in the Cen
trail Association. The draw lay be
tween Jaeger and Burch, and the
fact that Burch is a southpaw is pos
sibly responsible for his retention
Jaeger was in Keokuk today. He has
not yet secured job, but is free te
/ go where he will.

Ochs and the player left Quincy last
night to join the Packers Secretary
Farrell rendered his decision in the
case, holding that Rock Island had
claim on the player. 1t was from

The Gate City received telegram
from Hugh Miller. first baseman OF
the Keokuk club, asking the sport
writer to contradict any newspaper
stories of trouble with Belt or any
one Of the club. Miller says every
thing is peaceful. Belt also denies
the stories published in yesterday

with a nod of his head a f,cne that

posedly, resuming her SCAT, "let me

THAT would certainly be kind, II

relinquishing his load; and when the

YELL OF HISTORIC SPOTS.
Memorial Tablets on Washington
Houses OF Interest to Visitors.

Visitors to Washington find the city
spotted with small wooden tablets,
made in imitation of bronze, erected
by committee of citizens under the
direction of the inaugural committee
These tablets mark certain historic
places, buildings in which famous men
once lived or worked, sites upon which
their homes stood, hotels and churches
identified with the lives of statesmen,
the scenes of important happenings.
There are In all nearly 200 of these
markers, every one of them interest
ing. Studied by the stranger with cata-
logue in hand, they disclose the long
historic perspective of Washington.
They present the story of the national
capital as it is written In the records
of men and events
Many of the landmarks are passing
from view, for Washington is in a
state OF change. 1t is growing rapidly.
and its growth involves sacrifices. The
older buildings are being replaced by

is extending into the suburbs and the
newness of modern residence and
apartment house construction is en-

unless permanent marks are estab.

will have been swept away. without
traces left to note their existence.
