Is Eulld an Electric Railway
Wednesday Mayor Milliman
received a letter from Mayor
Nash, of Audubon, stating that
there was under foot a we'll de-
veloped project to build an cleo
trio railway from Des Moines to
Council Bluffs, which would
touch the county seats along the
line, which would include the
towns of Abel, Guthrie Center,
Audubon, Harlan and Logan.
From Logan the line would
make a direct cut to Council
Bluffs, probably touching Be
beetown. AS a result of having
received the letter, a meeting
OF the business men was held
yesterday, and a delegation con-
s,sting of Almor Stern, G.. w.
McCoid, and Leroy Brown was
selected to go to Audubon and
confer with the Commercial club
there with a view of furthering
the enterprise. There seems to
b, a sufficient amount of money
behind the affair to push the
thing toa successful conclusion,
and we would not be surprised
to find that before long ther will
be developments that will be
surprising even to the most en-
thusiastic admirers of the pro-
jet. Logan Nucleus.
Little Paul Walker, the
youngest son of M. S. Walker
was shot in the eye with the
missile from a sling shot. The
wound was quite serious and it
was feared the boy would lose
the sight in his eye. He was

a specialist was consulted ano
it is believed that nothing sc
serious as the loss of sight will
result. Observer.

Sioux Falls, S. D.. April 6.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt was the guest of Sioux
Falls until 10 o'clock this morning. His
special train was met by delegation
headed by Mayor Burnside and State
Senator Sites. Senator Kittridge also
greeted him. The president was es-
corted to the Cataract House by de-
tachments Of the two local militia
companies and enjoyed a day of COM
parative rest, the first he has had since
his trip began.
He attended church. both in the
morning and in the evening, and in
the afternoon went for horseback
ride. accompanied by s. T. II. Bullock,
superintendent of the Black Hills for
est reserves.
The fact that President Roosevelt
attended divine services twice was due
to an error on the part of the local
committee. The committee had the
Impression that the president was a
member of the German Lutheran
church, and accordingly they arranged
to have him attend that church. When
it was learned later that the president
worshipped at the Dutch Reformed
church. arrangements were made to
have service in the evening at the
Livingstone Reformed church here.
while it is not the custom of the
president TO attend services on Sun
day evening. he made an exception
when the facts we're made known to
him. The services In the German
lutheran Church were conducted by
Rev. Herman Sell. president Of the
German English College at Welton. Ia,
who came here for that purpose. The
German language was used through
out the service.
