A WATERFALL OF 2,O0O FEET.
The Highest in the World, Will Be
 Put to Hard Labor.

There is hardly a waterfall in the whole world which is located not too far from the paths of civ ilization which is not already at work turning the wheels of some power plant, or at least the ob- ject of some scheme to make practical use of it's power. A great amount of power has been derived from the falls of Switz- erland, where the streams from the glaciers have been harnessed, and bounding torrents, which have formerly done duty merely as glorious spectacles for tour jists, are now engaged in the pro- 'saic work of turning the great blades of the turbine. In the countries where coal is difficult to obtain, these waterfalls have been developed with great activ- ity. This is particularly true of France, Italy, Norway, Swe- den and Finland, besides the Alps, as already stated.
 The highest falls in the world are the Sutherland Falls, near the Milford Sound in New Zea- land, where the water drops a distance of 1,094 feet in three bounds, one directly above the other. The stream rushes from a glacier on the top of Mount Jutoko, and the flow is very great at all times of the year. This spot has for a number of years been the Mecca for thous- ands of travellers, and the wild scenery has been much admired for it's extreme ruggedness. This will all be changed at an early date. for plans are being made for the erection of great plant to utilize the power of the falling water. It is proposed to erect an electric establishment on the spot, and to transmit the current to the cities within reasonable distance. It is also expected that a number of industrial plants will be attracted to the very site of the Falls, as is the case with the generating plants at Niagara Falls.

The look of sadness which is characteristic of our presidents within few months after they take office has often been the subject of comment. The change in McKinley's face became more noted each year after he became chief magistrate. In speaking of this fact the day after his death New York Commercial Adver- tiser remarked that Hike Lin- coln's, it became a much stronger face under the burdens and dis cipline of great public duties, but also, like his, it's most strik- ing change, was the steadily in- creasing look of great and tender melancholy, the sadness of a heart that was bearing the bur- dens of many hearts. There was no sign that he had, as had Lin coin, the forebodings of his fate. Possibly the constant sorrow of his domestic life, a sorrow borne with such loyal patience and such touching devotion, may have had some influence in leav- ing this mark of sadness; but whatever the cause, 1t mirrored the tender heart, the devout spirit, the gentle, true soul of the man, as clearly as Lincoln's did. Thousands of Americans will see it in his face today who never noticed it there before, and will ask through blinding tears how it was ever possible to doubt his sincerity or to attrib- ute to him base motives.

Probably the most popular story told during the recent re- union at Memphis, remarked an old Confederate soldier, was one which related to a conversation between Grant and a private sol dier; and while it has been told often before it has been received with good-natured and, 1 may say, patriotic relish by every man who heard it, and but few of them failed to repeat 1t. Really, the story is an interest ing combination of fact and tic- tion, and this is probably why it was so popular with the old sol diers. There was no rancOr, no bitterness in the telling of the tale, but the fact that it brought in three of the most prominent characters of the war and gave the ConfederateS the best of a well-rounded point, caused the old fellows to split their sides when they heard it and make them anxious to repeatit. Grant ran into a private in the Confed

If there is one word in the En- gliSh language more sacred than all others it is the word "mother. !" We always want to wi e it with a capital "M," underscore it and enclose it in a vignette of laurel, significant of conquering the world by love and gentleness. We saw two young men in a saloon in Globe the other day. They were drinking, carousing, singing and swearing. But something suddenly arose to demonstrte that they were noble men in one respect at least. In the course of rambling conver- sation the word "MOther" was pronounced. Atthe sound offcame their hats and their heads were bowed as if in a sense of pro- found veneration, and every time the word "MOther" was mentioned their hats were re- moved and they seemed called back to the days of childhood, innocence and purity. It was an act to be- profoundly admired, and we shall never forget it. Let all the world honor the man who honors the word "Mother. " Globe Times.

In his latest circular Henry Clews sums up the business situ- ation by saying: General busi- ness continues in good condition and merchants generally antici- pate a season equaling last year in volume. It is noticeable, how ever, that very few expect to ex- ceed last year, and there is a wholesome feeling of cOnserva- tism in mercantile circles. Rail- road prosperity seems to go on without interruption. Gross earnings show steady gains in spite of the large increases of the three and four previous years. This is chiefly the result of better rates and shows the value of harmony to owners of railroad securities. As a matter of fact, many of the roads are carrying a smaller tonnage than last year, but they are earning a fair profit as a result of reasona- ble and stable rates.

A large and interesting meeting of
the Wapello and Jefferson County
Teachers association was held in Ba-
tavia Saturday, January 10. The first
number on the program was recita-
ton from the third reader by Miss
Name Mccormick of Fairfield, which
was discussed by the teachers.
Quite lengthy discussion was en-
tered upon as to the manner of teach
ing English in the public schools.
Many of the teachers contended that
English, as taught in several of the
schools, is not UP to the standard that
should be required, tho there was a
difference of opinion as to the meth
DDS that should be employed
The consolidation of rural schools
was taken up and lengthy discus
sion was entered upon by Prof Calls
ter of Agency, Miss Whitmore of Fair
field, County Superintendent Dimmitt
of Ottumwa and Mr.. Williams of Ba-
tavia. The meeting was closed with
and address by DR.. Hinitt of Fair
field, on Books and Reading" which

tendance of the teachers is desired.

Jacob go back to his old home without
facing his sin. This is law which
cannot be defeated. 1t is the same
now as it was in the days of Jacob
your sins will find you out
"This is something every man must
find out. Too many think that they
can go along, leading life of care
lessness and perhaps crime, then re-
pent and be forgiven, and that no bad
results will come of their wrong do
ing. This is the greatest mistake that
anyone can make. Even repentance
and Gods forgiveness will not pro-
tect one from punishment for his sins
of former days So Jacob had to go
back and face his brother Esau.
Esau Not Forgiving.
He had come to the borders of the
Land of Canaan and sent humble
message to Esau that he desired to
live with him in peace, not desiring
his fathers property, for he had plen-
ty. Now, time ordinarily softens the
hardest of hearts, but it was not so
with Esau He had been nursing his
wrath for twenty years and started to
meet Jacob with four hundred men.
Consider the conditions-on one hand
there was strong, vigorous, war-like
man, with four hundred men to do his
bidding; ON the other hand timid
man, who had been mothers boy
never wanting to engage in boy-like
sports. Jacob was fearfully awaiting
the coming of Esau. He had no pro-
lection, but was alone with his wives,
his children. and hired hands. That
was all.
But was that all? No. He had
something else. He remained alone
with God that night, and prayed Not
only did ne utter words, but he prayed.
He reminded God of his promise,
Thou saidst.' Happy is the man who
in the hour of trouble can fall back
on Thou saidst'
Jacob might have gone back to
Laban, but no, he remained and COM
muned win his God. And during the
night he had vision. The Bible tells
us how he wrestled with "a man until
the break of day Then it was that
the crisis of Jacobs life came, and
quered. For we are told he said, I
will not let thee go except thou bless
me- Again we are told, And Jacob
called the place Pencil; for l have
seen God face to face, and my life is
preserved
I'VE all have our Pencils during the
period of our lives, and these show
what we are. Too many fail, but there
are glorious examples, such as ia

ter that our lives are preserved'-in

EXCHANGE.
The Great Medium Thru Which to
Buy and Sell.
MANY ANSWERS TO "WANI" ADS
The Advertisements in the Courier's
Want Column Make Many Sales
Just the Place to Look for Bargains
and Business Opportunities.

The Courier wishes to call the at
tention of all to its want column, II
is. more properly speaking farmers
exchange because init can be found adj
vertisements of people who want to
buy or sell farms, stock. sheep. farm.
ing implements, stocks of merchan-
disc, etc.
There is no possible way that so
many people can be reached at such
a small expense as thru the Courier
want column.
The Semi-Weekly Courier prints
and mails over $500 copies twice each
week, and the amount required to get
your goods before all the people
reached by this great circulation is
only one half cent per word. If you
have any article you want to sell you
may find by looking over the want
column that some one is advertising
for just that very thing. All farmers
are more or less interested in the
price of land in other communities,
and by referring to this same column
the address of men who have land to
sell in Iowa and even other states
can be found who will gladly give any
information you may want, as to
price, terms, locality etc. BY watch
ing the announcements in this ex-
change column bargains can be con-
tinuously picked up and opportunities
found for profitable investment.
There is some one who wants almost
any article that you can think of and
certainly that some one can be found
among the many thousands who read
the semi-weekly Courier. If you
miss reading it for a week you may
miss the opportunity of getting just
what you want.
Good live hustling men are always
in demand as can be seen by the adj
vertisements for them u in the. wan,

sition can reach the business man

OFFICERS SAW A METEOR.
Intensely Bright Light in the skies
Sunday Morning.

Those who happened to be out of
their houses between $3.50 and 2:45
O'Clock Sunday morning were nearly
frightened out of their senses, by a
startingly bright meteor which dash
ed across the southwestern skies. The
heavens were brightly Illuminated for
the space of several seconds, and
those who were in a position to see
the meteor as it sped along its path,
found it necessary to turn away, for
their eyes could not bear the bright
light. One person who saw it said:
1T was like looking into an arc light
only hundred times more so; I
couldn't see anything for several min
utes afterwards"
Policemen Saw 1t.
Policeman Andy Pitts and Mer.
chants Police Johnson were among
those who saw the heavenly missile
speeding along. They happened to
meet at the corner of Main and
Market streets and while conversing
the sky suddenly lighted up. Both
instinctively looked up, and they were
rewarded with a sight of the meteor.
1t came from the south and passed ov-
er the southwestern heavens, pretty
well down, and sunk from sight in
the southwest. The officers did not
get to see at what point it seemed to
fall, for the reason that the bank
building at the southwest corner of
the street interfered.
