Dunn's Mountain, Feb. TO-
Winter is at last upon us, the
ground hog seems determined to
hold his own for a few weeks yet.
The school at this place has
been closed for the past week on
account of some of the children
having a breaking out on their
bodies, better known as the itch.
Necessary remedies are being used
to cure this malady.
The n5w desks for the Dunn's
Mountain school have arrived at
last and are in place. They make
the school room look very nice.
It is to be hoped these desks will
be taken good care Of. The par
ties disfgurlng these desks should
be held responsible fer same.

Reputation Priceless

"Good name in man or woman is the immediate Jewel
of tho soul.'' That is the proposition concerning repu-
tation-as applied to human beings. But inanimate
creation has reputation behind-and it is either good
or bad.
Gowan's Pneumonia Cure has been long enough before
the people to secure a rating in the worlds agency for
reputation-and that rating is AL.
1t has made good. It has proven all its claims. It has
never disappointed. 1t does all that is claimed for it,
and the claim is that it CURES anything where infa1n
nation is the seat of the trouble, Pneumonia, Appen'
dicitis, Group, Colds, CONGRATULATIONS does
those things, and Gowans puts it on the go. Being
external it is as safe as it is certain. Keep it in the
house.

THAT POsTOffICE RULING AGAIN.,
Those Who Are in Arrears Must Pay up or
No Paper viii be Mailed.


A lot Of well-meaning but negli-
gent people are going to be sur-
prised some morning to find that
they are not receiving their paper
as per custom. They are behind
with their subscription, but they
don't think it makes any differ
ence-that it is a matter which
can just as we'll be attended after
everything selse Is settled. In a
few weeks. according to new pos
tai regulation, papers canpot cred
it subscribers more than three
months, and as a consequence
many papers are striving hard to
get their subscription list on a
paid in advance basis. We desire
in this connection to reprint a
card which Postmaster Reynolds,
Of Winston-Salem, has caused to
be published in the Union Re-
publican.-Greensboro Industrial
News.
To The PuBLIc-There has been
some intimation to me that the
newspapers in cutting off their
subscribers who have not paid up
was due to the newspapers them-
selves. This is not SO at all. This
IS done under a ruling of the post
office department which classes
the patron of a newspaper who
does not pay as not a legitimate
subscriber, therefore not entitled
to the use of the mails.
The newspapers have had no
hand in this ruling, SO far as l
know. All they have to do is to
obey and the general public should
at once come to- their papers as
sistance by paying up all past
dues, for unless they do their pa
pers must be discontinued after
April 1.
Respectfully,
GA. REYNOLDS, P. M.
We are inclined to think the
nostofice officials are going a lit
tie too far in this matter, but we
are unable to cause a change IN
the ruling and are therefore COM
PEELED to submit. Yet there is no
reason why we should lose a single
subscriber for such a reason. The
ruling goes into effect April 1st.
which gives two months in which
one might pay up his subscription
account. All good men expect to
pay their bills anyway, SO why de-
lay. Come in and settle before
we send out any bills.

TRAMPS KILLED
TWO BROTHERS
New York Men Murdered for Money
It Was Supposed They
Possessed.

OSWEGO, N. Y, Oct. 14-When
Charles Ward, surprised at getting no
response to his rapping at the house
of his neighbors, John and Peter Bohli,
at ingalls, crossing, broke in the door,
he found the brothers dead. They
lay on the floor, both with several
bullet wounds in the bodies and their
heads battered in, evidently with an
ak, which lay beside them. Robbery
was the motive. 1t is thought they
had accumulated several thousand dol
lars. The opinion is the crime was
committed by tramps.

CEDAR RAPIDS
WATER POWER
A 100000 Dam is Proposed to Fur
nish Water Power at that
Point.

Cedar Rapids Republican: The
rumors which have for some time
been ahoat that the water power in
the Cedar river in the vicinity of the
Palisades might be developed today
took definite form The Cedar Rapids
Light and Power interurban company
has acquired lands for dam site be-
low Palisades and will in the immed
late future begin the construction Of
a concrete and steel dam which will
cost $500 900. The dam will be 90 feet
high and will mean deep river from
some sixteen miles. The power which
the dam will generate is estimated at
a maximum of 1890 horse power.
which is more than the equivalent of
the steam plant in this city, after 1t
has been increased by the new ma
chinery now being installed. While
that is the maximum horse power
there is also the minimum to be con-
sidered and that minimum is prac-
tically nothing. When the river is
100 low lne power SSHSld VIII w
slight and when there is a flood no
power at all will be generated. But it
is thought that two-thirds of the year
the water power will be available.
The surveys for the dam have been
made and they have been approved
by the best hydraulic engineers in the
country. There Is nothing uncertain
about the project 1t has been work
ed out definitely and quietly, under
the leadership of the two men who
have been most responsible for the
interurban system to Iowa City, Col.
w. G. Bows and Isaac B. Smith. They
deserve the main credit there is in
the scheme. They have given anoth-
err illustration Of what enterprising
young men can do for Cedar Rapids
What such a project will mean to
the Industrial development of the city,
need not be enlarged upon 1t will
mean much The city that us;S water
power is the city that is desirable
from an industrial standpoint. 1t will

=. Base Ball Association Has Not
Yet Renewed Its Lease
on the Base Ball
Grounds.
LOOKING AT THE POWER
central investment Company Of Chi
cago Has an Eye on Project
and is Holding
Back.

That outside capitalists and con-
oerns look upon the water power as
almost certainty during the next
vear is evinced by the fact that the
central Investment Company of Chi
csgo is holding back and has thus far
rpf,sed to give the Keokuk Base Ball
association a renewal of the lease on
mo Hubinger baseball grounds. The
reason given Is that should the wa
Tor mower come within the next year
the company wishes to be in posi-.
,ion to tear down all structures on the
grounds and divide it into lots suit
able for residence sites.
The two year lease which the base
| hall association held has expired with
the close of the season and has not
vet been renewed. One Of the officers
! n the association stated this morning
| that 1t was thought some conditional
lease would be obtained whereby the
baseball association should relinquish
ali claim to the grounds with the first
evidence of water power or at the re-
ouest of the owners. This matter is
not worrying the directors who intend
| TO make extensive repairs next year.
The hill back of the home plate is to
be removed and the ground leveled. A
thorough draining system is to be in
stalled and many other minor i'm
provements made. Keokuk has al
ready one of the best diamonds in the
circuit and the improvements in view
at the present time would make the
diamonds one of the best in the state.
