Local rivermen anticipate a
slight rise in the river by tomor-
row, due to the melting snow.
Whether or not the rise will be of
sufficient proportions to start the
ice is a question that cannot at
present be answered. The i'm
mense gorge has the water back
ed up between this city and
Wheeling several feet, and as a
consequence there is a very
strong pressure on the ice. Hence
it will not take but little water
to start the ice.

RUMBLING
Things Heard and Seen Along Track
and RoundhOuse.

Conductor Caleb Warren, known in
Oskaloosa as Daddy" Warren, died
at his home In Washington Saturday
evening, from the effects Of a stroke
of apoplexy. Conductor Warren had
been i'll for three days from the fatal
attack. Daddy" Warren was for
twenty-five years conductor on the,
Knoxville & Washington branch, run.
ming through this city, and was we'll
known to all travellers along that line.
He had retired about two months ago,
and was pensioned by the Rock Island
at $4,000 per month, IN reward for his
faithful service with the line.
The Rock Islands new time card
went into effect Sunday, and the first
appearance OF the trains ON the new
schedule was made this morning.
Considerable confusion resulted from
having the three trains pulling into
the city at practically the same time,
but the travelling public will soon be
used to that. The first train to ap.
pear was the train for Chicago. Ten
minutes later the train for Eldon from
Des Moines appeared, and ten min.
utes after the train from Eldon to
Des Moines. Baggage traffic at the
time was rather c~ongested, and the
express and United States main men
we're busy getting their transfers
shaped up. 1t was seen that the new
arrangement will necessitate the }.
tension Of the baggage platform in or.
der to give an opportunity to handle
baggage, mail and express.
