sons most deserved successes. for it
is ralely Rock Island thatregoers
have had the good fortune to witness
ON a local stage such IA pretty mnsic-

splendid one, many coming from Day

There is not an Objectionable sugges-

Mount Iona steaming Up.

After silence of 80 years Mount Iona, the
only volcano in the United States, is sending
out smoke aud steam, and some of the people
in the surrounding country say low rumblings
can be heard. These reports are brough
from Cedar county, Neb., where the little
mountain is situated, by travellers, who say
that the settlers in the neighborhood are
panic stricken and are preparing to leave the
country,
The mountain is situated on the Missouri
river, $50 miles above Omaha, and while not
of great height, is high compared to the sur
rounding country. II has been for years a
sacred place with the Indians, aud il was near
there that the last big sun dance was held in
1878 No Indian will go TO the mountain
itself, as it has long been known TO them as
the hill of fire.
Geologists have said that the smoke is
caused by water seeping through the limestone
formation of the mountain, bnt the people are
fearful of an eruption and are preparing to
move.
