FOUR GOSLINGS
AND A WEDDING
The Sequel to the Arrest Of Pear
Baker at Peoria and Taking
Him Through keokuk
to kahoka.

The passage of Pearl Baker
through Keokuk from Peoria to Ka.
hoka, chronicled the other day, was
the middle chapter of story of
geese, law enforcement and wedding
bells.
It turns out that what the Clark
county officers wanted Baker for
was stealing four goslings from a
woman in 1913. The theft occurred
in Washington township, and on con-
yiction Baker got three years in the
Denitentiary. The supreme court
affirmed the sentence and then
Baker jumped his $500 bond and
disappeared
The prosecuting attorney this was
in, Missouri-collected the bond and
kept on the hunt for the man until
he found him in Peoria under an
other name. He and the deputy
sheriff went over and got Baker and
took him home with them through
Keokuk.
I The man was engaged to Mrs.
Ellen Moran and had 1898 in his
pockets, which he gave to his fiancee
who registers from indianapolis. She
accompanied the party to Kahoka,
and there the wedding bells come in,
lor the couple were married by a
minister Bakers next stopover is
at jefferson City.

ium Last Night.
SUBSTITUTED FOR SICK
The Series Of Games Goes 'MerriIy on
and Will Continue with a New
Bat and Increasing
Interest.

The game was called because the
bat broke in the last half of the fifth
inning-there's a new idea for base
ball leaguers. 1t happened in Keokuk
last night.
The tragedy occurred while the
Standard Oil team was playing the
High school team at indoor baseball
at the Y. M. G. A. gymnasium, the Pc
troleum products having gone in in
stead of the Kellogg-Birge team. which
had several men on the sick list,
There was no decision, and the
score by innings can not be given, be-
cause the official scorer threw the
sheet away, saying he didn't know
anybody would want 1t.
Some Good Players.
1t was a fine game as long as 1t
lasted. it is agreed by all the partici-
pants The Standard Oil team had
some men who had never played an
indoor game before, and this made
their work the more notable.
L. Parsons was umpire. The bat
broke into two pieces from constant
