ARE WINNERS
Church Indoor Baseball Championship
& Goes to Them in Spirited
Finish to League Season
Friday.

The PresbyterianS won the church
indoor baseball championship FRIDAY
night without a struggle. Inc Bap.
lists who were slated to play the
Presbyterians, did not appear for the
contest and the game was forfeited
to the league leaders. The Presby-
terians have had a fast playing, hard
hitting outfit which spelled defeat for
every team in the league for the two
scheduled contests with the excep-
ton of the Congregationals which is
the only team that succeeded I'D
winning from the champions.
The league has been unusually fast
this year. The Baptists and the
Christians worked under the handf
cap OF not having their teams well
organized until late in the season and
they were the only teams that were
outclassed in the pennant race.
The sch edule' has not yet been com
pleted IN its entirety. Two games
are scheduled for next week and il
is expected that both OF these con-
tests will be played, just for the sake
of the sport and to satisfy the rivalry
that exists between these crubs. The
Methodists are booked for two con,
tests before the schedule closes-one
game with the ST. Pauls and the other
with st. Peters. These games are
scheduled for Tuesday and Friday
evenings of next week and promise
to be good exhibitions of the indoor
sport. The games will be called
promptly at SIS O'Clock. Tuesday
evening the Methodists VS.. st. Paurs
and Friday evening the Methodists
VS. ST. Peters

Il some One to Dim Lights is
.oocsibIe for Smash Up Which
occurred Saturday
Night.
hRD CAR Is DAMAGED
..o,nts Narrowly Escape Serious
,,,uries and Perhaps Death
When Auto Turns
Over.

!, automobile accident in which
men narrowly escaped serious in
IL or perhaps death, occurred Sat
IN night on the lake shore road
sre Galland, due to The fact that
NJ we're not dimmed by the driver
one car.
mpanion were driving 10 Keokuk in
Tord car Saturday night and they
Bsmpted to pass a car just as they
,ehed the culvert above Galland, and
nassing, the smaller machine with
occupants turned over twice in the
IN ditch there to the side.
n Is almost miraculous, the garage
n say who rescued the car, that
men in the car were not serious
injured. One of them was pinned
hder the car when it turned over the
nbankment, but both men sustained
bly slight injuries.
The machine was badly damaged,
wind shield and steering wheel
roken to pieces and the rear left
Iheel broken badly with all of the
boxes out of it. Other parts were
lso damaged.
IA Mr.. Riley of Burlington and a
hest at Hotel Iowa for the past few
Eeeks is the man who was said to
Ave been driving the Cole car. He
kdnitted, according to statements
nade BY Mr.. Alcott and his compan-
pn that ne was to blame for the ac-
knent because of his failure to dim
Ii lights. He helped the two men
saturday night to get out of their
damaged car into his and took them
d their home at Fort Madison. Yes
kerday morning Mr.. Alcott and his
friend came to Keokuk on the train
Ind arranged with a local garage to
get the Ford and to have it repaired
h was at this time that they made
the statement that Mr.. Riley admitted
THAT he was to blame for the accident.
The garage people themselves have
mot seen the driver of the Cole car.
According to friends of Mr.. Riley,
| be claims to have dimmed his lights
lad 10 have stopped his car and to
have held his hand out as a warning
10 the men. He. claimed; that the
Ford car lights were binding him, ac-
tording to one report, and that he
topped his car to avoid going off the
load himself.
Should Obey Law.
The proprietor of the garage said
his morning that he wished Keokuk
,ecple would observe more closely the
ules for driving cars and thus elimi-
late great number of the accidents
which occur Dimming ones lights at
he approach of another car is one
ule which should always be obeyed,
e said
Cars being driven on Main street
hould not be stopped in the middle
I the street until their drivers have
lyen the sign that they are going to
top as a warning to machines which
nay be back of them. Another &C
dent occurred on Main street Satur-
ay night because this rule was not
dhered to. One car stopped in the
aiddle of the street without giving
ny warning sign that it was going to
0 SO, and the car back of it ran
Mo the first car, damaging the front
nd OF the second machine. The
ccident was absolutely avoidable if
ledriver in the first car had observed
alomohi!e etiquette. the garage man
cleared.

STAGE H0LDUP
 ON WHITE WAY
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE,

Broadway was thrown into the great est excitement as police reserves ar rived on the double quick and working on the theory that the robberies were committed by two different bands, raced up and down side streets and secured the subway for the four miss ing bandits.
 Proprietors of the two stores eSti- mated that thousands of dollars worth Of jewelry had been stolen.
 In addition to the pedestrian wno was shot, but not seriously wounded one other member of the crowd sue ceeded in getting his fingers on fu- gitive.
 He was rewarded by crack on the wrist from revolver butt which caus- ed his arm to fall helplessly to his side.
 The first robbery. in which Schwartz Bros were the victims, was engineered with great daring. While ruDDmg CT bows with passing pedestrians, one of the bandits slipped an iron bar
 
 that it could not be opened from the inside. Then a brick wrapped in cloth was hurled through the window.
 At the jingle of falling glass, Frank Schwartz ran excitedly to the door and tried to pull it. open as he shouted for help. The crowd, also attracted by the crash, swarmed about the robbers, two of whom continued cooly at their task of raking diamonds and rubies out of the window while the third member Of their party kept the spectators at bay.
 Seeing the crowds halt and form a semi-circle around the store, Patrol man Anthony Weigen hurried there. Just as he arrived the robbers packed the last of the gems into their pockets parted company, and started each for himself to carve d Way through the human semicircle.
 Then came gunplay Sighting . man break away from the crowd and dart up Broadway, Weigen, with drawn re- Volver. gave chase.
 The crowds took to cover as they heard the crack of revolver, but Wei gen had missed and the robber sped on In front of the fugitive was a sub way airhole, which had the cover oft. and through this hole the bandit jump cd to the subway tracks, 1o rect peiow. He narrowly missed being struck by passing train, for the roar of it's prog ress was heard on the street above a few seconds after the robber played his last card and won.
 The second robbery occurred in the store of Marcus Feldman, between 45th and 46th streets, where the thea tre throngs are thickest.
