A Ponderous Work.

John Jabine, of New Orleans, has
been doing land Office business in the
Des Moines river channel for several
days near this city. During the sum-
mer floods the Chicago Great Western
railroad lost about 100000 pounds of
steel which was being hoisted into po-
sition for the new freight bridge build
ing near here. The steel went to the
bottom of the river and into the center
of the current. Tacklecould not be at
tached to it by ordinary means and
Jabine was sent for. He is deep sea
diver. He brought his apparatus with
him and by its use he is able to work for
an hour under the water. He attaches
the tackle to the steel beams and they
are then hoisted to the surface by a
stationary engine. He also excavates
about the pieces which have been
buried by the sand and mud in the bot
tom of the river, SO that all of it can
be saved. Thousands of people have
been attracted south of the city, where
he is working, to witness the queer
operation, probably the first diving
that ever occurred in the state of Iowa.

model of the battleship Iowa is about
to be installed in the state historical
department in Des Moines. 1t was Sc
cured for Hon. Charles Aldrich by
Speaker d. B. Henderson, of the ma
tional house. 1t will be about eight
feet in length, encased in plate glass
and will be an absolutely accurate re-
production of the big ship which made
the state of Iowa famous during the
sea fights of the Spanish-American
war. The model first goes to Dubuque,
to be there when the Henderson library
is opened, when it will be repacked and
shipped to the historical building here.

salvation Army Rally.

Gen William Booth. of the Salvation
Army, will be in Des Moines December
Z, and will speak twice on that date.
The 5000 salvationists of the state are
much interested in the meeting and
most of them will be here for it. The
other religious organizations OF this
city will help receive Gen. Booth. 1t
was his intention, originally, to stop
at Sioux City, in this state, but he de-
cided to cut that out and come to Des
Moines, as it is easier of access to his
people. From here he goes to Omaha,
thence to Kansas City and thence to
ST. Louis. He stops here on his tour
across the continent.
Employs nm Eastern Indy.
Miss Helen Rex Kellar, of Boston,
has been employed by State librarian
johnson Brigham to become cata-
loguer in the State library. Some of
the trustees of the institution thought
that the librarian should make an eff
fort to secure an Iowa person for this
work. However, the policy of the man
agement always has been to secure the
higher salaried employees from the far
east. Miss Lavinia Stell, of Coon Rap
Ids, has been appointed to minor po-
sition in the same institution. She was
educated out of the state also.

nent men will attend the ceremonies
of it's opening. 1t is established to fur
nish convicts who are released place
to stay and work until they are able
to get employment, which will make
them self-supporting. Mr.. Coffin has
discovered by investigation that ma
iority of released convicts go back to
crime because they cannot get employ
ment when they state the fact to be
thatthey are just out of prison; where
as if they get work without stating it
, and are afterwards found out they are
discharged. Maud Ballington Booth
will be present for the opening of the
home and Gov Cummins and Wardens
Hunter and Jones, of the two state
, prisons, will be in attendance.
