Still a Nickel
For That Cup
of Real Java

Keokuk coffee drinkers still
have something to be thankful for.
This good old beverage is still five
cents a cup at restaurants in this
city, and the managers of the eat
ing places give out hope that the
price will not be raised.
Burlington folks who drink cot
fee are going to be compelled to
pay ten cents cup for 1t soon in
the restaurants there, they have
been informed by those in author
ity on the subject. This is some.
thing new for Burlingtonlans and
they say it's rather tough On them.
The local cafe men seem to have
a spark of humanity in their make
ups yet, for they give as their rea-
son for not raising the price OF
coffee, that it is too much for the
poor man to pay. They all say,
however, that coffee is worth more
money on the market now Than 1t
has been for years.

LONDON REPORT
ON BALL GAME
Times Prints Its First Box Score
With Description of Game
Which 10 Worth
Reading,

NEW YORK, Aug. 5--The staid ole
London Times, for the first time in its
ISL years, has printed box score
Not only that. but it describes the
game in baseball slang that would
bring blush to the cheek OF ar
American writer. A copy Of the
Times, received here today, contains
the following:
I'm a closely contested game OF
baseball, at Oxford, between Oxford
and Cambridge-teams composed foI
the most part OF former American col
lege men attending the two UNIVERSE
ties. Oxford won 6 to 4.
1.-THE pastime was featured by the
heavy stick-work of Wallace, former
Harvard star, who slammed out q
three-bagger and homer In three
tries with the willow. For the first
three frames both teams hung tough
and allowing no scoring. The fourth
inning netted a brace for the home
lads. Ives clouted one to center and
Richards let the sphere slip. Eagle
watched four bad ones 90 by, and,
after Ives was tagged trying to steal
home, was pushed over for the first
tally when Williams leaned against
one for two sacks. Shawenecy went
bad here and gave Storey free ticket,
and Wallace came through with a
three-station bingle that showed Will
liams and Storey across. Brown ended
the agony by missing three.
I'm the sixth. Cambridge made an
effort to close the gap when Shaw
enecy kissed the leather for bingle.
Richards picked double and Myers
followed up with safe swat which
brought the count within one. 1t
looked good for another after Myers
swiped the second stop. but Thorn
gate and Hart both carved the breeze.
oxford wasn't going to let them feel
too good about 1t, though, so they
slipped UP few more to convince the
crowd it wasn't visitors day. Eagle
went to first on Myers error. Gam.
NELL took stroll, and both were
forced at the third corner by Williams
and Storey. Wallace stepped into a
nice one for the washout drive and
was well over the platter before tine
pill was relayed in. Shawenecy was
here yanked to give Clarke chance
to use his slants, and after singing
through second, Brown was nabbed off
the first pillow.
Cambridge came back strong in the
eighth when Shawenecy singled, Rich
ards was given a life, and both scored
with the help of two-timer from
Myers and nifty sacrifice by Thorn
gate, but the combined efforts of Hart
and Beal could not push the anxious
Myers over"

Covered Some Twenty

| Rand park sheltered trio OF run
away boys last week, it was discov
cred when the three Mason boys
sons of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Mason
Of Fort Madison, were picked up by
local police and held until their
father came for them. The three
lads ran away from their home last
Thursday morning, and after cover

We're picked up by local policemen
and their adventures nipped in the
bud. The boys range in age from
four to twelve years.
An old church along the road be-
tween Keokuk and Fort Madison
gave the boys shelter during the
storm of Thursday night. Friday
night it was evident that the boys
sought repose in the shadows Of the
big trees in Rand park. Funds for
the journey were secured through
the sale Of some chickens which the
boys made early the morning they
left home.
The whole story of their adventures
was learned by their overjoyed par
ents soon after the return of the
boys. The lads left the Mason home
early Thursday morning with several
chickens, which they sold to a local
produce dealer. With the funds thus
derived they decided to take little
tour of the country, and consequent
ly set out for the rural districts.
During the storm Thursday even
ing, while their anxious parents
watched in vain for their return, the
lads slept safely in church near
Fort Madison, and continued their
way Friday morning. Their food
was either purchased outright by tho
canny eldest Mason lad or "mooched"
from kind-hearted farmers wives,
and the boys literally lived on "the
fat Of the land" during their pill
grtmage.
The smallest lad, aged only four

kuk was reached
Here the lads stopped few min
utes to watch some men fish, after
which they continued their trip. In
the city two OF the younger lads set
out to grocery store to purchase
while the third and Oldest
remained near the river bank and
was arrested by policeman, who
shortly afterwards coralled all Of the
trio.
In the meantime Robert Mason, OF
Fort Madison, had heard that his
boys were between Keokuk and
Montrose and set out to find them.
He arrived at Keokuk nearly an hou.
after the lads had been found by the
police.
The lads expressed little concern
over the worry which they caused
their parents.
