A Timely Reminder.

"Mrs. Jones, what are you going to
do with the winter suit you had last
year?"
"Well, l really don't know. 1t is
worn somewhat, but will not make
over nicely. am undecided what to
do, as l can't wear it as it is.''
why don't you save it for the
rummage sale? You could spare it
as well as not. and it would bring
quite a sum for the fund"
II did not think of that. l believe
will, and my last years jacket, too.
Thank you for reminding me of the

AN ICE SITUATION |
Dealers in the Three Cities Say
Their Supply is Practically
Exhausted.
SHIPMENTS FROM OTHER TOWNS
May Result in Increase in Price,
Early Cold Spell Hoped
For.

The ice supply in the tri-cities is
practically exhausted. Other cities
throughout the country are also clam
oring for ice and railroad officials
have been asked TO hunt up all the
stray lots that are on the market
along the various lines. These facts
were brought out today in interviews
with the managers of the various ice
companies in this city.
OF the local ice men, John Siegrist
appears to be the only one having
even a limited supply left. He has
enough 20 supply the probable wants
of his customers until winter The
others are depending entirely upon
what they can get from outside
sources. The CRYSTAL Ice company,
of Davenport, which manufactures
the demand made upon it, and has re-
fused to sell TO outside towns, even in
the face of the offer of unheard of
prices.
No Advance Yet.
The price in this city has not so
far been advanced, but there is a
prospect OF rates going up, al
though some Of the dealers deny
this. The heavy consumers. such as
butchers, saloonkeeP ers, hotels, etc.,
are protected by contracts for stated
supply at stated price, and accord
ihgly will be the last to suffer, for
dealers will be compelled to supply
them first.
Ice cards are already beginning to
vie with campaign pictures for places
in the windows about town and the
ice man pays about as much atten-
tion to the one as he does to the other.
While cooler weather would allev-
late the condition to some extent, the
heavy users are bound to be losers,
and the public may as well become
resigned to the prospect of tainted
meat. soured oysters, and warm water
and beer.

a Complicated Situation.

OF course the fact that both MIR.
McEniry and Mr.. Andrews are to ap-
pear on the ballot as entitled to three
votes is apt to coHplicate matters in
voting. As a matter of fact the cleo
tor is deprived from casting straight
party vote that would count as far as
representative is concerned. Such
predicsment certainly the law did not
contemplate. As the case rests, there
fore, the elector will be obliged to use
the greatest caution to make his in
tention plain on the legislative candi-
date question without invalidating
his vote in other particulars.
From the information at present at
hand the safest plan would seem to be
to mark the circle at the top and the
square opposite the democratic can
didate desired for representative. in
order to indicate straight democratic
vote with legislative preference.

RICH COLD BEDS IN NICARAGUA

Made by Charles Lobnsr Just

"The gold fields of .sicaragua are
Just as rich as those of the Klondike,
and when more Is known OF the riches
of the Central American country the
rush to the Nicaragua gold fields will
be as great as IL ever was to California

With a gold nugget weighing GA
ounces and worth in the neighborhood
OF $3.50, in his pocket. Mr.. Lobner came
TO Chicago TO look after machinery for
sone mine owners OF that country.
He IL an American. has lived in Mic
arRRua for ten years, and Is enthusi-
astic over the climate and the possi-
bilitiea Of the country. In speaking
of the prospects, Mr.. Lobner said that
with the building OF the Nicaragua
canal an era of prosperity unprece-
denied In the history of the country
would set in. The Nicaraguans, both
In private and in official life. are anx-
ious for the construction by the Unit

way, and the foreigners will welcome
the day when the first shoyelful of
earth IL turned In the commencement
of the work.
"Wlth the construction and opera
ton Of the canal by the United
States" said Mr.. Jobner, will come
an era of peace and good times that
the country has never hitherto en-
Joyed. Political differences and devas-
tatinR Tebelions and Central Ameri-
can wars would be done away with to
n great extent by reason OF the United
States influence"
Contrary TO the general belief, Mr..
Lobner asserts that Nicaragua 10 one
OF the most healthful countries on the
globe. Fevers practically are I'M
known. and malaria IL the only all
ment that IL at all prevalent.
