&s=d and WORKS.

To say that this splendid work
of science and art is finer and bet
ter than ever, is stating it mildly.
The demand for it is far beyond
all previous years. To say that
such results, reaching through
thirty years, are not based upon
sound sense and usefulness, is an
insult to the intelligence of the
millions. Prof. Hicks, through
this great almanac, and his famous
family and scientific journal,
Word and Works. is doing a work
for the whole people not approach
ed by any other nan or publica-
ton. A fair test will prove this
to any reasonable person. Added
to the most luminous course in as
tronomy for 1903, forecasts Of
storms and weather will be given,
as never before, for every day in
the year, all charmingly illustrated
with nearly two hundred engrav-
ings. The price Of single almanac
including postage and mailing, is
thirty cents. Word and Works
with the almanac is $1.O0 a year.

Brussels, Feb. 15.-It is said the de-
sire to keep secret the departure of
Dr.. Mueller former consul OF the
Orange Free State in Holland, for the
United States. is so keen that the Boer
emissary has booked his passage I'M
der an assumed name, according to
information from responsible Boer
quarters.
Kruger's letter to Roosevelt,of which
Mueller is the bearer, does not appeal
for Intervention, but expresses regret
that he is unable at the present time
to personally congratulate Roosevelt
on his accession to office. 1t concludes
with gratified allusion to numerous
invitations to visit the great republic
which have arrived. and are still ar
irving.
Besides recognizing the Boer prop,
uganda in the Unlted States Mueller
will direct his efforts principally to
obtaining government prohibition OF
exported articles regarded by the
Beers as contraband, of war, thus in
directly eliciting an opinion on the wal
from the United States government.
Mueller is supported by wealthy
Boer sympathizers in Europe and has
great hopes regarding the result OF
his mission.

of her neighbor, a man named Brom-

Lindhoff guilty. Mrs. Lindhoff shot
Bromley few months ago during a

the intentions of killing Bromley but
the jury thinks otherwise. The Brcm-

ABOUT THE CANAL.
Des Moines Man Tells More About
His Scheme.

His Scheme.
Des Moines, Feb. 17.-John S. Eme-
ry and those associated with him in
the scheme to convert the Des Moines
river. between Keokuk and Des
Des Moines, into a slackwater canal
say the river can be shortened and a
channel eighty feet wide maintained
between the points named for much
less money than will be expended on
the Hennepin canal in Illinois The
war department has asked congress
for $2,000,000 for the completion of
the latter waterway and SS000,000 has
been asked for the improvement of
the Illinois river to connect with the
drainage canal. If the Des Moines
river could be improved Des Moines
and central Iowa would have two all
water routes direct to Chicago
Mr.. Emery and his associates gay if
Iowa ever is to manufacture cheaply
coke, pig iron, steel billets, and hard
wood must be provided at the same
Price paid by manufacturers in Hi
nois and other states. They declare
Iowa is paying tribute to Illinois, In
diana, and Ohio on all kinds of farm
implements, which would not be the
case could the materials mentioned be
brought here at water rates
Such a waterway, by reason of its
advantages, it is asserted, would add
from $40 to s25 an acre to the value
of farm lands in this state, thus max
ing them equal in value to farm lands
In Illinois, Indiana and Ohio.
