A Little Tale of Two keokuk Resi-
dents Running Out of Gasoline
After Mid
night.
OUT IN THE COUNTRY
c. H. Dodge and Riley osburn Motor
ed to Quincy and Coming Back
Stalled" Gu. of SUIT
ter, III.

Two Keokuk citizens, Chas. H.
Dodge and Riley Osburn, had quite
an experience on a lone, dusty road
after midnight Sunday while re-
turning from Quincy in the formers
automobile. The garage man and the
tonsorial artist had gone TO Quincy
at 1890 on Sunday morning for the
trip and had spent the day with
friends in the Illinois city and seeing
the sights.
About half past eleven at night tho
gentlemen started on their return TO
Keokuk. Mr. Dodge measured the
gasoline in his machine before start
Ing and assured himself that there
was plenty of Juice" for the engine.
The car ran all right, until the two
citizens were this side of Suffer
about mile and half when the ma
chine went dead. Examination show
ed that the gasoline was gone. There
was no other alternative but TO go
back to Suffer and try and find the
liquid necessary to run the machine
The two occupants of the buzz bug
gy alighted and started back along
the road when a buggy hove in sight
and the driver was hailed and per-
suaded to take the theatre owner-gar-
age man to town and return with the
gasoline.
Altogether an hour or more was
lost and the two who went a-spinning
arrived home about 3 bells.

BANDIT CAPTURED
BY BOY SCOUTS
Two Holdup Men Were Run Down by
the Youngsters in the Bush
Country.

A dispatch from Red Deer, Alberta
tells of the good work performed by
a band Of Boy Scouts in that Canad
ian city, as follows:
The Boy Scout movement proved
its usefulness today when members
of the local branch of the organiza
ton surrounded and captured two
highwaymen, one of whom few
hours before had murdered George
Bell, chief of police.
Early this morning the chief was
going toward home when he heard the
command, Hands up" 1t came from
across the street, and running over,
he was in time to see two masked
men going through the pockets of two
citizens.
The chief drew his revolver, but
before he could fire. one of the high
waymen shot him through the aldo.
men. The wound resulted in Bells
death this afternoon.
The entire police force was put on
the trail of the men, who fled to the
bush country north of town. Then 1t
was suggested that the Boy Scouts
be called out, and they were sent to
scour the country.
The boys found the robbers on a
hill. They surrounded the fugitives
and, covering them with their small
caliber rifles, ordered the two to give
themselves up
Seeing no chance of escape, the
men surrendered. They gave their
names as George Kelly and w. Wilson
Triumphantly the scouts marched
their prisoners into town after making
them throw down their guns. Kelly
confessed to having fred the shot
that killed Bell. Wilson had no hand
in the shooting.
The Boy Scouts were given pub
lie reception tonight and movement
has been started to reward them with
medals.

DUKE Of CONNAUCHT'S
INVITATIONS DECLINED
ConsulS General Dissatisfied with
the Degree of Precedence
Allotted to Them.
A L0NG-STANDING QUARREL
Representatives of Foreign Gov
ernments Have Been Staying
Away from Occasions of
Ceremony for 5 Years.
lBy Telegraph to The Tribune

Ottawa, Ont, Nov. 1.-THE old vexed
question of precedence at the Governor
Generals drawing room was again
brought to public attention when the
regulations Of presentation at the Duke
of Connaughts first drawing room. TO
be held next Saturday night. were pub
lished this evening. The various con
suls general. resident here and in Mon
treal, have for many years had no place
assigned exclusively 10 them by regula-
tions governing the precedence Of those
to be presented at drawing rooms. but
they have been included in Glass D, and
at the very end Of those included in IT,
coming Just after the Sheriff Of Garlic
ton County and the Mayor Of Ottawa
and just before the general unclassified
public who are referred TO in the regula-
tions as "other ladies and gentlemen at
tending the drawing rooms" At the
opening of Parliament a year ago the
consuls general were present in their
uniforms and decorations. but they alb
So nted themselves from Earl Gray's last
drawing room. which was held day or
two later.
The publication of the old table OF
precedence tonight settles the question:
so far as the action Of the consuls gen
ersl is concerned at his royal highnesss
first drawing room. and they will remain
away, as they have for years. A general
feeling Or regret exists. and II is possible
that the duke may take some action be-
fore next Saturday.
The consuls general resident here arc
those NJ the United States. Belgium, Ar
gentine Republic. China and Japan.
Those residing in Montreal are those OF
Austria France Italy. Germany, Russls'
NORWAY Sweden and Spain.
Their absence was quite generally
noted and commented upon. The con-
suls general have never made any rep
RESERVATIONS in the matter. but II Is
known that they felt that. occupying the
highest position il was possible for FOR
eign representatives TO occupy In can
ada. they should have some distinct
status on official occasions where prece-
dence was observed strictly, most of
them actually performing diplomatic or
semi diplomatic functions. The Laurier
government took some notice Of the mat
ter and intended taking steps to change
the old order, which was established
many years ago by the impt,ial author
tiles before consuls general in Canada
were so numerous and important as they
are now.
But the new Borden government came
in recently, and it is assumed that in
the rush of business the old order Of
things remained, in the absence of 1t
being made live issue.
There is an enormous demand for adj
mission TO the drawing room and 10 the
opening of the new Parliament and the
Gentleman Usher Of the Black Rod has
issued a statement that no more cards
can be issued. ottawa is already filed
with prominent visitors, who are to at
tend this function and the succeeding
brilliant social affairs.
