Tor the purpose OF talking over the
building of the baseball park. This
seems to be the biggest step to be
taken Securing money for the team
land getting team together will be
easy in the opinion OF Frank Belt,
former manager OF the Keokuk In
dams, who is one of the boosters for
the new organization.
Fans and stockholders in the base

next week, according to the present
plans to discuss the costs of construct.
ing % baseball field, across from the
terminal Of the Mckinley avenue car
line. Louis Sterne, one OF the sup
porters and promoters of baseball in
keokuk has been active planning for
this meeting, and estimates have been
received from contractors on the cost
of erecting park and stands.
1t is generally believed that Satnr-
day and Sunday games in keokuG
this summer would be paying propo-
sition. The league would be compos.
ed Of four or six teams. In the lang.
uage of Frank Belt 1T won't be hard
to get the team once you've got the
grounds"
Keokuk fans have suggested that
they will be glad to support team
this year. Some of the fans have sug-
gested to the promoters of the league
plan that they will be glad to give a
hundred dollars or more towards the
support of team. This sentiment
is quite different from that expressed
some years, when it was quite a pain
full operation to extract the money for
the seasons expenses.
There are sixty-five stockholders in
the baseball grounds association and
with the assistance of the fans it is
believed that sufficient fund can be
secured to make the week end league
in Keokuk success.

Weak, Thin, Nervous
People Should Take
Bitro-Phosphate
What 1t Is And How It Increases
Weight, Strength and Nerve-Force.

Judging from the countless prepa-
rations and treatments which are
continually being advertised for the
purpose of making thin people fieshy,
developing arms and neck, and re-
iplacing ugly hollows and angles by
the soft curved lines Of health and
beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel
their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often
due to starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contain
ed in modern foods. Physicians
claim there is nothing that will sup
ply this deficiency SO well as the
organic phosphate known among
druggists as phosphate, which
is inexpensive and is sold by Wilkin-
son G. Co., and most all druggists
under a guarantee of satisfaction or
money back. ...
By feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the
necessary phosphoric food elements,
o-phosphate should soon produce
a welcome transformation in the ap-
pearance; the increase in weight fire.
quently being astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries
with it general improvement in the
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness
and lack Of energy, which nearly al
ways accompany excessive thinness,
should soon disappear, duh eyes
brighten and pale cheeks glow with
the bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION:--While Bitrc-Phosphate
is unsurpassed for the relief of ner-
vousness, general debility, etc, those
taking it who do not desire to put
on flesh should use extra care in
avoiding reproducing foods.

A Bavarian SwindIe.-An imperti-
nent swindle is being perpetrated on
certain Catholics of Bavaria, behind
which sinister motives are thought to
exist From sources, which cannot
definitely be traced, there are sent out
anonymous letters and other writings,
which state that the Catholic clergy OF
Bavaria are about to inaugurate a
movement for the abolition of clerical
celibacy, somewhat on the lines of
the move engineered in Bohemia. The
: scandalous part of the swindle is that
these writings are so composed as to
give the appearance of having orisi-
| mated with the clergy themselves,
| which is not the case. Steps are be-
! ing taken to discover the perpetrators
! of the hoax, which has evidently an
other end in view than that OF a prac-
teal joke.

of interesting narrow streets and little
squares between the Well-knOWn COrsO

at the solemn Mass in the little church

quite a number of Roumanian Cath
olics were present; also Mgr. Giobbe,
Rector of Propaganda. Mgr. Lucaciu,
who is both Roumanian Minister for
Pennsylvania and Delegate for the con-
sideration of a Concordat with the
Holy See, preached after the Gospel,
and asked all to thank His Holiness
in their hearts for his great goodness,
and to remember King Ferdinand, the
Bishops, clergy and people of Rou

of the S. Congregation of the Oriental

persons to become teachers. He has
no one else to blame but himself for
