WHITAKER
LEAVES INDIANS
Veteran Pitcher on STAFF Of Local
Club, Goes to New
York State
League.
HAS HAD GOOD YEAR
Contract Contained Non-Reserve
cIause-Whittaker Always Popu-
lar With Central AssocIa-
tIon Fans.
HAS HAD GOOD YEAR

bill" Whitaker, veteran pitcher on
the Indian stan, will leave the team
during the middle Of the week for
Utica, N. Y, where he will Join the
club Of that city in the New York
State league, 1t was announced by
President M. F. Baker today.
Whittaker's contract contained q
n~on-reserve clause, he refusing to
sign any other kind of a contract last
spring. Under this contract he could
not be forced to remain until the end
Of the season which closes Monday.
The local club, of course, will get no
money for him under these condi-
tons.
An indian for Two Years.
Whitaker has been with the club
for two years and has been one OF
the mainstays of the hurting stan dur.
Ing this time. He has been more
successful this year than any other
pitcher on the club.
Although Whitaker Is q good pitch
er in a league of the classification OF
the Central association, it is doubtful
II he could have been sold. At the
close Of the season here last fall he
was sent to Lincoln club Of the West
ern league under an optional agree
ment, but was returned to Keokuk at
the end OF the western league season.
Had he made good last year his sale
price was to have been $500.
#E.M EMHN~E FHH .
Once In American Association.
Whitaker has been as high as the
American association. He was with
the Indianapolis and Louisvills clubs
for a time in that league. He also
played with several different clubs In
the Central league. His career on the
diamond has also seen him in several
other minor leagues.
"Bill" has the reputation OF being
the foxiest pitcher in the Central a s
sociation. He has picked up about
all the tricks Of the profession and
has set several records in this league.
Last year he created somewhat of a
sensation among local fans when he
pitched in q double header at Water
lOO LOT IWSAly.Ou6 COAoOSutAVc AhAiAiSo
without being scored against. He has
always been popular with local fans
who hope to see him go higher.
Little Money in Treasury.
President Baker stated today that
there remains but "a cents in the
Golfers Of the local club. However, as
the team is on the road the rest of
the season 1t is believed that it will
not be necessary to call on the fans
for any more money. The clubs
share in the receipts OF the Labor
day games, which r pooled, should
amount to enough to enable the In
dams to finish the season with a clean
slate.
1t Is still too early to tell what
the attitude Of the fans will be to-
ward baseball for next year. At the
flag end of the season interest in the
game always relaxes and 1t is not un-
til late in the winter that thoughts OF
making preparations for next year
come up. AS has always been the
rule in the past, many FANS believe
Keokuk should drop out OF the game

is thought to be more satisfactory to
doctors, nurses and patients to have
a central place for all calls.
A summary of the nurses report is
as follows: Number of patients under
care during the month, u; number of
visits made, 244. Two patients died
during the month";. thirty-lve were
dismissed as cured or improved.
There were three maternity cases
during the month. While there were
many babies ill during the month,
only one died and that one from
pneumonia following whooping cough.
August is a hard month on babies,
physically, and this record is a very
creditable one.

BOURBON STOCK
YARDS BURNED
HUNDREDS OF, SHEEP AND FIFTY
L. e. N. CARS BURNED AT
LOUISVILLE.

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 2S.-Fire.
which broke out in the sheep pen OF
the Bourbon stock yards here last
night, had caused damage estimated
at 100000 at 10 o'clock and still was
spreading. Hundreds Of sheep were
burned. About fifty Louisville &
Nashville railroad cars, some of
which were loaded with freight, have
been destroyed.
The fire was spectacular, the flames
leaping high into the air" were seen
from all parts of the city. A car OF
oil on the tracks near the yards ex-
ploded. The burning liquid added
greatly to the spread of the fire. The
flames extended from the sheep pens
to tn sheds which sheltered several
thousand ohgs. A number of cot
tages on streets bordering the. stock
yards were in flames and there was
slight hope of saving any of them.
Every piece of fire fighting appara-
tus in the city was marshalled at the
conhagration in an effort to save the
stock yards, valued with the live
stock at about 100000.

ED GEERS WEARING
FANCY RAlMENT
IT is TO THIS FACT THAT PLUM
MER WEBSTER ATTRIBUTES
LOSS OF C. OF C. STAKE.

Plummer Webster thinks that the
loss of so many races this year by
Ed Geers, the grand old man" Of the
trotting and pacing world, is due to
the new jacket that he has recently
donned in driving. Plummer has
read that it has all the hues OF Ja-
cob's striped coat, and to this fact
he attributes his loss Of the Cham
Der of Commerce state at Detroit
Tuesday. He says that his horses
are so scared of him that they will
not let him enter their stalls. Here
ltofore, in all of the thirty-odd years
Of his driving experience, he has
worn nothing but jacket Of somber,
funeral color. However, at the in
stance of Frank Jones, for whom he
drives, he has discarded 1t and dom
ned raiment of more snowy hue.
Plummer is going to write him to cut
out the fancy Jacket and return to
the colors in which he used to drive
when he was training at Spring Hill.

COL WOODEN BACK
FROM WISCONSIN
TELLS SOME WONDERFUL TALES
ABOUT NUMBER OF FISH
THAT HE LANDED.

Col. J. G. Wooten has returned
from Three Lakes, Wisconsin. Have
you seen him? Have you heard him
tell of his wonderful and scientific
achievements with the rod and line?
Izaak Walton in his palmiest days
was never more successful than was
the Colonel on this trip. He gated
and landed more than three hundred
pickerel, bass, muscellugne (?) and
others OF the finny tribe. He was the
master fisherman of them all. He
made another shipment of fish to his
family last Thursday which reached
here Saturday and were fine. But
the Colonel overlooked the poor old
news monger and business manager
of The Herald.
Col Wooten did have a fine trip
and reports fine catches every time
out. He is feeling fine and refresh
ed from his trip and says that it Is q
great country up there among the
lakes. He fished in a string of TWEEN
ty-eight lakes, all of which are reach
ed by boat from one to the Other
without any overland luggage.
1t is currently reported that thu
members of the Ananias Club, DR.
A. G. Dinwiddie, ex-president, frs
and second vice president, would be
delighted to see the Colonel at Ana
MAS headquarters, but 1t is doubtful
ii the Colonel will risk his reputa

WHAT WILL Be THE
TOTAL VOTE OF THE
COUNTY AUGUST 81.
THAT Is THE QUESTION THAT
is AGITATlNe THE POLITICAL
FoREcASTERs.
POLLS MADE IN FORMER RACES
Largest Vote Cast in November 1910
and 1912 When Approximately 1000
Were Counted.-What the aggre-
gate Was in Each Precinct Then.

What will the total vote Of the
county be on August 6? That is a
question that is agitating the politi-
clans no little at this time. The
registration indicates a big poll; the
poll tax payments do not show an
overweaning interest to qualify for
the exercise of the great American
privilege.
There have been no August elec-
tion contests in Maury county since
1906 when an effort was made to de-
feat the democratic nominees. Com
parisons cannot therefore be made
with the August vote. The warmest
contests in the county in recent
years have been in state elections
notably in November 1910 and Nov
ember 1912. 1t was in these years
that high water marks were reached
in the total poll. The vote in 1910
was slightly more than that of 1912
It will probably be more in 1914
but how much mere?

SHOOTS WIFE, TURNS
PISTOL ON HIMSELF
JEALOUSY CAUSES TRAGEDY At
PICNIC GROUNDS-BOTH
LIKELY TO DIE.

FRANKLIN, Tenn, July 2S.-Jeal-
Gus of his wife and angered because
she did not wait for his return be-
fore going to a picnic, Joe Bennett,
aged 20, shot his wife of a year and
then turned the weapon on himself.
Both will probably die. The tragedy
occurred Saturday afternoon at pic
mic at Little Texas" not far from
Peytonsville.
1t seems that Mrs. Bennett had ex-
pected her husband to take her to
the picnic, but when he delayed his
return she went on to the grounds
with friends, expecting him to come
on. When he reached the picnic
grounds he found his wife dancing
with another man and started toward
her with drawn weapon.
The woman ran, pursued by her
husband, but turned and pleaded for
her life. The answer was a shot in
the breast which felled her to earth
in a heap. Bennett then turned the
weapon on himself, the ball barely
missing the heart.
The wounded man and wife were
taken to different houses and were at.
tended by Drs. German. and Hewlett,
The condition of each is regarded as
very critical, that of Bennett being
perhaps, the more serious.
