ELKS WILL TAKE
IN WARSAW TODAY
Manager Craft VIII Take His Prot
eyes TO Warsaw This Afternoon
and Put on Alleged Ball.


The Eks' baseball team will go to
Warsaw today and endeavor to show
the village champions how to play the
great American game. Manager Craft
was at Hubinger park yesterday after
noon picking UP some hot tips from
the Indians on the inside work OF the
game and promises to have the horn
ed specimens Of, Keokuk architecture
running rings around the favorite sons
OF Warsaw.
The lineup has not yet been deter
mined for the Elks and the general
supposition is that Manager Craft is
none too sure OF having his men at
the car when the time to leave comes.
1t may be that several A. D. T. boys
will be pressed into service to route
the team from the Sunday morning
beauty nap In order to escape fine
by the manager. From the expression
on his face last night, he has been
having some very uneasy moments
since he took charge Of the antlered
herd and fear Is felt among his friends
that he Is laboring on the verge of a
nervous breakdown, due to the siren
nous duties that he has In connection
with the management OF the ball team.

Sporting Views
By the Editor

With fair weather and efficient
street car service on next Wednesday,
the fans that gather at the ball yard
should number well up into four fig
Iures. The directors are making ar
rangements to take care Of record
breaking crowd and the grounds are
now In better shape than ever before.
The score board has been repainted.
putting 1t in white so that the figures
can be easily seen from the grand
stand.
The only thing that will prevent the
citizens of Keokuk from enjoying base
ball this year as never before will be
the dust and dirt flying in from the
field. It would be an easy thing for
them to make some arrangements
whereby the dust could be done away
with and materially add to the en-
joyment Of the game by the patrons of
the park. It has never been the habit
in the best leagues, In the past few
years to allow the innocent bystande
at game to deliberately I'LL their
eyes, mouth and ears with realty be-
longing to, or leased by, the directors
who control the ball yard. No recoru
can be found where the bystander has
been charged with grand larceny for
obtaining real estate under difficult
ties. but IL the said directors get all
that is wished on them by the said
patrons Of the grand art of baseball.
Helngon will certainly be most pop
ular place.
It is to be hoped that the men In
charge will heed the request of the
many fans who are helping keep base
ball in Keokuk and make this much
needed improvement.
The face of Manager Queisser and
many of the rabid bugs wore smile
that could not be made to denote any
thing except relief and satisfaction
yesterday when the announcement
was made that Tod" Sloan had fin
ally made up his mind to sign the
contract offered by the local manage
lpent The price that will be paid the
southerner was not made public but
1t is thought that he was given 1T
tie more than was originally offered.
With Sloan and Murry signed up. the
nucleus of strong pitching staff is
HOW ready.
Queisser said the other night during
a tanning bee In which the wonderful
achievements Of the pitchers were be-
ing told of. that in his opinion the
pitchers were many times given credit
for winning ball games that only luck
pulled them out of. No matter what
kind of a game that pitcher Is twirl-
ing" continued the boss, the fact re-
mains that unless the team behind
him is playing ball and putting run
ners across the rubber, he is sure to
lose the game
The logic of this statement Is clear
TO everybody. Just let the men who
make up the balance of the team
come in for share of the glory when
the Indians are winning.

to form and will be on the job and
promises to have something on the
ball beside the cover. McCray Is
having great deal of trouble getting
into shape. He is pounds over weight
and his arm is causing him lot Of
worry.
The boss insists that the only two
men on the pitching staff that will be
kept, SO far as he knows now, are
Sloan and Murry. The others are
putting up a hard fight for the two
extra places and should be getting
better each day.
