Great Britain has called upon the
blanket manufacturers of the U. S.
to supply her armies with one mill
ion five hundred thousand order. On
ly about One-third of the order can
be supplied at present, owing to the
woolen mills being swamped with or
ders. All this rush of business in
the manufacturing mills of the east,
We suppose, will be laid by the Re-
publicans to Democratic incompet-
ency.

JoE's RAvlNG.

Once upon a midday dreary,
AS stood alone and weary,
Thinking of the days more CHEEKY
That were gone forevermore,
espied upon the paving
Just bit of deft engraving,
That sent heart and soul a craving
For that quarter l adore.
Just a quarter, nothing more.
AS l watched it's scintilation,
was filled with deep elation,
For it spake an invitation
To lock around for more.
But l looked around in vain,
In the wind and driving rain,
And my failure gave me pain.
Gave me pain and made me sore,
Panied that l could find no more.
AS l heard its merry jingle,
It set all my nerves a tingle,
But felt peeved that it was single,
And not married to some more.
But with sweet anticipation,
/ hiked to the nearest station,
Where they solve the grub equation,
Grub that's served by sweet Lenore,
Only grub and nothing more.
But imagine my chagrin,
When l turned my sheckel in,
To discover it was tin,
Only tin and nothing more.
To mine eye came slow a tear,
For my heart was filled with fear,
And all over, l felt queer,
At the chiding of Lenore,
Gliding, chiding evermore.
Then unto my room returning.
In my brain her language burning,
Soon l heard a gentle tapping,
AS If someone loudly rapping
Rapping on my chamber floor.
Open wide l flung my door,
Again revealing sweet Lenore
Who came, my pardon to implore,
And promised grub forevermore,
Only grub, and nothing more.

Vale Occupies Spotlight.
The football outlook around the
east this year is unusually interesting.
Yale occupies the spotlight, not be-
cause it is expected to "clean up" this
fall, but because Frank Hinkey is
back to coach Old Els pigskin war
riors. The prospect Of this former
Blue star putting in winning team
there this year is very doubtful. The
task is too great, in the minds OF
football critics.
But the Hinkey spirit, as 1t is re-
membered by ones who saw that fam

something to be reckoned with and

Hinkey has tried out large number

be that every man who reports is

want to see for himself what material
he has on hand. Only the three play

ARE TO RAISE $500
Boyle to Receive $1,000 a
Year and Halt the Sales Of
Players Developed

Keokuk will remain in the Central
association. Frank Boyle, of .iusca-
tine, will lead the 1915 Indians.
These two facts were definitely de-
cided at the mass meeting held last
evening at the superior court room.
The meeting was composed largely Of
substantial business and professional
men. There was not dissenting
voice raised when the questions of
remaining in the league and OF sign
ing Mr.. Boyle We're put to vote.
1T was evidently the belief of those
present last night that with Frank
Boyle at the head of the club Keokuk
will show new interest and new
life in the national sport. 1t was
plainly question of either having
Boyle as manager or of dropping
from the league.
Reports on Conference.
John G. Erhart, as chairman of the
committee which last Monday held a
conference here with Mr.. Boyle, read
the report of the committee and ex-
planned in detail what had been done
at the meeting Mr.. Boyle had made
a proposition to the committee and
had returned to Muscatine to wait
the outcome of the meeting last night.
mfr. Boyle is to accept the manag-
ership of the club at salary Of
81 500 year and onehalf the money
received from the sale of players. The
directors are to raise enough money
through subscriptions to pay off the
present Indebtedness of the club,
amounting to about $1,000. and are to
raise $500 for the support of the
club next year 1t is believed that

which amounted to about 10000 this

directors, Boyle assured the members

tfication. At the same time, however,
he is a very economical manager. He
has guaranteed the men with whom
he conferred while here that the total
expenses of running the club would
not exceed $4,000. The expenses OF
conducting the team during the past
year was stated last night by Sec-e-
tary Overton to have reached little
above $4,000, difference OF about
$1,000.
AS Mr. Boyle said, he will make"
the biggest part of his salary HIM
self. He stated that he had the word
of Manager McGraw, of the New York
Giants. that McGraw's team would
play an exhibition game here next
season. This undoubtedly will prove
an immense drawing card and the
receipts for the game should go
long ways toward paying the salary
to be given Boyle. There are also sew
eral other ways in which he will be
able to secure money for the club
which will make him, in reality, a
cheap man.
other Clubs After Boyle.
It has been known for some time
that Boyle would not remain with
Muscatine next season. He has been
quoted as saying that in his opinion
manager should not remain more
than two years in town no larger
than those of this league. Overtures
already have been made to him by
several other clubs. The Cedar Rap
ids directors wanted to sign him to
pilot the Bunnies in the event Hill
would not again lead that club. Since
Hill has decided to quit the game. 1t
il likely Boyle would have gone there
had he not been secured for this city.
One of the most gratifying matters
brought out at the meeting last night
was the statement made by one Of the
members Of the committee which met
Mr.. Boyle regarding Boyle's attitude
in regard to obeying the salary limit
OF the league and of conducting a
team in an economical manner. The
new Keokuk boss was quoted as say
ing he would be glad to see the
league adopt salary limit of $1,000,
and also make rule that no players
could be used on any of the teams
who had played in leagues of high
er classification than the Central as
ISOLATION. 1t is not considered likely
that either Of these rules will be made
by the league, but it shows that Boyle
at least is willing to live up to the
salary limits already made.

FORT SMITH, Ark, Nov. 19.- Twenty-six persons, including former officials of the United Mine Workers of America, were indicted by the special United States grand jury in vestigating allegations made in con- nection with troubles in the Hart ford Valley mining district. The men are accused of sending threatening letters to Judge Youmans. who en- jo.ned union mines of taking away pr soncrs and deputy United States marshals and participation in the riots last July.
 Among those arrested were; Peter K Stewart, former president of the mine workers for District No. 21; Fred W. Holt, former secretary; James SIankard, a constable at Hart ford: James McNamara, former member of the city council of Hart ford.
 They are charged with conspiracy against the government to interrupt justice in connection with the trou- bles at the Prairie Creek mines of .tne Bache- -Denman Coal company.
