Look Under 1t

Did you ever turn over big fiat
stone and watch the pale bugs and
-orms with frings of legs down each
side, scurry to hide from the sunlight?
How these little wrigglers hate the
man who exposes them.
Do you ever feel an antipathy to-
wards these squirpers that remind
you of the lickspittle prostitution of
some politicians.
A little further along we will lift a
stone and give the people square
look before the crawlers can sink out
OF the sunlight.
You will perhaps remember the one
big question before the two national
conventions to nominate presidential
candidates was the anti-injunction
question. 1t vitality affects the liberties
OF the common people VS.. the Labor
Trust.

Excellent Conduct.

nothing of tits kind, it will be grand

The officials and directors of the
celebration have worked hard and
faithfully and deserve great credit for
the successes of the week 1t has
taken great amount of work and
time to bring the celebration to sue
cessful close and those who are re-
sponsible, deserve the praise of the
community for the way the week has
passed.
The largest crowd was on the street
Thursday. Yesterday there were
many visitors here and this afternoon
the crowds from out of town were
still present.
The absence of DoBell, the high
wire walker, for two days, was the
only hitch of the week and that was
unavoidable.

What does anti-injunction mean?
1t means the enactment of new laws
to prevent the peoples courts from is
suing any order to stop men, known
to be intending to assault workmen or
destroy property. In other words tie
the hands of the courts and not allow
them to protect persons or property.
But the honest members of the con
vention at Chicago hooted down this
attack on our courts and refused to
insert such a plank in the platform, as
sorting in place of it, confidence in
the integrity of our courts and de-
handing that their present power to
protect the citizens be maintained;
that was the basis u the plank adopt

Charles Warden Goes up in the Bal
loon Yesterday Evening and
Uses the Big Para
chute.
IT WAS A GRAND SIGHT
He Went UP Higher Than Any of the
Ascensions of the Week and
Came Down in Safe
ty.
IT WAS A GRAND SIGHT

The finest balloon ascension and
parachute leap of the week, and one
of the best ones ever made in Keokuk,
was the one last evening, which was
made by green hand in the balloon
business, the performer never having
been in balloon before.
He was Keokuk man who offered
to make the jump and who made a
great exhibition in his leap from the
clouds.
He was Charles A. Warden of No.
1902 Estes street, an employee of Har-
rison & Dietz, and who is an expert
in the ice business but knew nothing
about balloon riding until yesterday
evening.
And he's going up again tonight.
He has been working during the
week with Lee Planet, the man who
made the jumps during the first part
of the week and secured permission
to go up yesterday evening".
The start was made from the mar
ket grounds on scheduled time and
the big balloon floated up into the air
and slightly south. When 1t got
about above Eleventh and Exchange,
it quit sailing and went straight up.
Planet was to fire a revolver as a sig
nal for Warden to cut loose his para
chute and he fired the pistol when the
balloon was high enough UP in the air.
Four Signals.
But the parachute did not start and
the revolver was fired off four times.
The balloon kept On going upwards
and the performer did not cut loose.
The cause of the delay was that
Warden made two attempts to cut the
parachute loose but the ropes would
not work. Then when he got ready
again, he was right above building
and waited until he thought he saw a
vacant spot to land on.
Finally when the balloon was high
in the air and the man looked like a
fly, he pulled the rope and the para
chute came down.
The man dropped like flash and
then the big parachute fired open and
he began to float down toward the
earth
The balloon turned over and the
smoke rolled out of it until it was
empty and then it came down like a
shot, landing on the earth before
! Warden got down.
Warden came down on the lawn OF
a house on the corner of Eleventh and
Bank streets and the balloon landed
across Eleventh street in yard, not
a half block away
1t was one of the finest leaps ever
seen here and Warden received many
congratulations upon his fine ehibi
ton. He is to make the leap again
! this evening at $50 o'clock.
People who had seen all of the leaps
/ during the weak, realized that the
man was going up higher than ever
1 last evening and wondered If there
/ was not something wrong, because he
did not start downward as soon as or
previous occasions.
Even had the parachute refused tt
work. Warden was in no great danger
for the balloon would have gradual,
fioated down to earth as the hot air il
4 the bag cooled off and he would have
got back to town all right within
short time. A hot air balloon will no
| stay up over about twenty minute.
