VIII Finish Well up
In Front.

Unless the weather moderates in
great degree in the next two weeks.
II is probable that the men signed to
play with the Indians will not be
asked to report until week later than
was intended. The big expense at
tached to keeping the men here dur

item that could we'll be used in some

With the arrival Of Manager Manush
in the city next Tuesday, the baseball
bug will float around over the city and
awaken all the fans to the fact that
the season is almost here.
Manush and Red" Osborne will at
once begin the work of putting the
grounds and stands in order. A great
deal of work will have to be done on
the grounds before it is ready for the
opening game here and force of men,
under the watchful eyes of the man.
ager and the groundkeeper, will be
busily engaged for the two weeks
prior to the opening.
1t is planned to have a big time in
Keokuk at the opening game here,
May sixth, when Ottumwa will battle
the Indians. A big parade. similar to
the one held last year is to be put on
and it is hoped that the merchants
will see fit to take three hour lay
off on that afternoon, to give the In
dams a good send-off.
If the Indians come off their first
road trip, which includes Ottumwa
ard Muscatine, with string of vic
tories, nothing will be too good for
them and Keokuk fans will turn out
better than they have for many years
is the general opinion around the city.
According to the sport writer's
around the Central Association the
chances for Keokuk to finish we'll up
in the pennant races have been
strengthened wonderfully in the last
week or SO, since Manusch announced
the classy bunch of players he has
signed. The infield seems, on paper,
to be by far the strongest in the
league, and he has several good out
fielders, even if Madigan and Hilly
refuse to sign.

This world Is full
OF songs that pull
And wrench the human heart:
OF songs as sweet

Where pulsing, drift-winds start;
OF melodies
That grip and seize
The well-known savage breast;
That furnish dreams
OF moonlit streams
And-well you get the rest.
This world Is filled
With notes that thrilled
Since old Doc Adams day;
OF liquid notes
From high-priced throats
That hold SIRENS sway
But at the end

The clash between EveEs and Tinker
is sure to be savage and fought to the

Chance has put his troopers through
