ikee, where is being held the annual
convention of the General Federation
of Women's Clubs, all contain compli-
mentary notices of the paper by Mrs.
H. ]. Howe. of this city. on Needs Of
the Public Schools Of the West"
The Chicago Record in giving 6
synopsis OF Mrs. Howe's paper, says:
Mrs. Anna B. Howe, of Marshall
town. Ia, then spoke of the Needs OF
the Public Schools of the Vest Illi-
nois, she said. needed law permitting
school boards to transport children to
and from school and a small tax to be
used for school libraries. Washington
and Nebraska also needed libraries.
Indiana, she said, needs longer term
of service for state and city superin-
stendents. Michigan needs the latter
and that he should have more control
of the school work.
wisconsin needs county training
schools for district school teachers.
Wisconsin also needs legislation to pro-
vide schools in the rural districts Of a
higher grade than the district school.
Iowa. she declared, needed above all,
compulsory education laws and more
state normal schools. Departing from
what was needed in the way of legis-
lation, the speaker said that the cree
ton of school buildings should be in the
care OF a competent commission; that
free text books should be provided and
a law compelling children to have a
certain amount of education rather
than to go to school q certain number
of years.

The heavy rain that fell between
midnight and 6o'clock Sunday morning
seems to have been quite general, thru
out the entire Iowa river valley, and
according to indications, must have
been heavier north than here. An ex-
ceedingly heavy fall was recorded here,
the reports Of Local Observer Jones
showing that 1877 inches fell in the six
hours. The lowlands in the south of
the city showed the evidence Of the
storm more than any other one part of
the city. the railroad yards being
flooded and rubbish piled up in drifts.
The pavements We're cleaner than they
have been in years, and the farmer is
happy, for the drouth was becoming
serious.
The Iowa river this morning showed
a rise of about four feet, which is the
highest the water has been In any June
for many years. At Pierce's park the
water was just within Its banks and
that was all and it has been at about a
standstill all day. The rise begun Sun

great proportions until evening, wher
1T came up fast and continued rising
until this morning.

ANOTHER HAPPY B1RrHDAY.
Miss Jane smith. One of the olde.,
Women in Iowa Is 1O1 Years Old
Today.

To-day.
For number Of years Miss Jane
Smith, who resides with her brother
sin-law, Mr.. George. Shelter. ST., at Mo-
liz North Center street. has enjoyed
the distinction Of being the oldest
woman in the city and county and it is
not known that there is anyone older in
the state. Nor is 1t strange il she
really is the Oldest, for when one has
rounded out a century Of life it is no
very common occurrence. Miss Smith
is still older, however, for it is just 10l
years today since she was born. Ex-
tensive mention was made of Miss
Smith last year when she had attained
to the age of the ''one-hoss shay,
which the genial Holmes has made ia
nous. But Miss Smith has disproved
the theory of the doctor poet for she
did not break down on the momentous
day when she reached the venerable
age and in fact seems as well and
strong today as she has for number
of years and takes as great an interest
in her friends and affairs going on and
about her. No special celebration of
the day was made but number OF
Miss Smiths relatives and friends have
called on her to wish her many returns
of the day.

the right Of way have been forwarded
to the promoters from Marshalltown
citizens. It Is hoped and expected that
the actual construction will commence
before snow flies.
The project is many years old and at
one time was looked upon as not only
feasible but splendid business venture.
The b, c. r. & NJ, however managed
to get into the territory first, and this
fact killed the Chicago, Iowa & Dakota
scheme. Belmond, Alden and Eldora
parties were partakers in the project,
and had interested John /. Blair. the
great New York capitalist, whose death
occurred not long since. The people
along the proposed line have kept con-
siderable faith that 1t would some day
materialize and its resuscitation will
prove good news to them.
