Fairfield, Dec 16.-Wilson R. Hef-
line, city clerk of Fairfield. has found
a number of people who were former
friends and acquaintances OF the Jacob
Zehr2 from whom he received letter
a few days ago saying that Zehr was
held a prisoner on the Isle of Mann
by the British government. Richard
c. Leggett, city attorney, is now pre-
pairing a number of affidavits from
former friends showing that Zehr is an
American citizen and 1t is hoped that
these will bring about his immediate
release.
1t develops here that Mr.. -Zehr was
a schoolmate and boyhood friend of
Jacob R. Scheffel, a piano dealer Of
Fairfield, and their ages are practical
ly the same, according to Mr.. Scheffel.
The father of Mr.. Zehr was at one time
miller at Merrimac and both father
and mother belonged to the Amish
church which was located near Way
land where distant relatives of the
man still reside and who now spell
their names Gear Mrs. Milo Hinshaw,
a we'll known Jefferson county woman,
is a second cousin Of Jacob Zehr and
his old time friends and relatives are
quite concerned about his present con-
dition.
Mr.. Zehr left Jefferson county and
went to Keokuk county. residing there
a few years. He left Iowa in 1880 and
relatives had lost all trace of him un-
til City Clerk Heflin received his let

 TO BE PLAYED
 TOMORROW ?. M.

Ball game tomorrow afternoon on the Juneau grounds.
 Promptly at o'clock tomorrow afternoon the Elks and A. B. baseball team will cross bats in the first game of the season on the Juneau grounds. This game will be for practice only, and the regular ser les will start on the following Sun day.
 The "Antlers" were out last night and practiced for an hour before the rain drove them from the grounds. They were on the job. however, and the amount of pep they displayed was astonishing as it was their first time out. The Elks have strong lineup and should be able to hold their own with the Abs" who will depend on their fielding and hitting ability to win the game The inield of the Elks is fast and with their battery they should bring home the bacon. although needless to say they will know that a game has been played and that they were in it be- fore the day was over.
 The Antlers last night elected Jack Woodland as manager and Wm. Fry as captain Of their team. James Bar rager has been chosen as umpire. While he is an Elk. he is known as a fair and impartial umpire and will give all sides a square deal. He is perfectly satisfactory to both sides.
 The Elks will line up about as fol- lows. although changes may be made just before the game Metzner .ss; Mitchell. Sb; Jack Johnson. 2b; Kis- selring. To; Fry, D; Woodland, If; Snead. cf; King, c; Canton, If; Gray and Gibson. substitutes
