Arrival Of the Moon and Near Ap.
proach of Electric Lights
Sounds Doom Of the
Organization.
OFFICIALLY NEXT WEEK
Oil Pipe Line From Western Wells
Has Been Abandoned Since
the Decay Of the
Club.

With the new moon on duty in the
sky and the electric light company
promising to have the street lights in
operation by December II, the Keokuk
Lantern club is staring 'isbandment
in the face and within few days the
famous club will be e thing of the
past.
For two months the club has -four
ished and has done untold good in the
city, but it's nights of usefulness are
drawing to close and the club will
likely disband some time next week.
A meeting of the board of directors
will be held some evening next week
at which the affairs of the club will
be wound up and the clu3 will be Of
ficially disbanded.
1t has been suggested by some Of
the members that banquet be given
by the club at the Hotel Keokuk or
in some large hall and that the wind
up of the Keokuk Lantern club be
made great social event the likes of
which have never before been seen in
the city.
This idea will be discussed by the
board of directors at the meeting next
week and if enough of the members in
sist upon banquet, it will be arrang-
ed and various committees appointed
to make tae necessary arrangements
Oil Tank ne.
The club had about made arrange
ments for new industry in Keokuk
and one which would have produced
much good and prosperity to the com
munity. An oil tank line was to have
been built to Keokuk from the Kansas
oil fields, but the disbanding of the
club, puts stop to that scheme. Dur
ing the existence of the club, coal OF
had been sold in Keokuk at a grea
rate and the companies were beinl
pushed to supply the demand an,
the oil pipe line would have come i
handy. In fact 1t was becoming al
absolute necessity that a pipe lin
be laid, for the railroads were too slo,
in bringing oil to Keokuk.
Had the electric lights been off 70
another couple of months, the tan
line would have been built.
The club detective wa unable to Il
cate the lantern stolen from the O
ganizer of the club two weeks ago.

at which the post and several other
friends were the guests.
After supper the newly-elected
officers of the Post were installed by
the Post commander, Mr., Bell, fol-
lowing which came the corps install
lation. The installing officer, Mrs.

of their buying the famous or in
famous Andersonville prison field,
which consisted of eighty acres; of
the time and money spent in beauti-
flying the grounds made sacred by
the death by starvation of $4,000
men in thirteen months. A Gem
etery not far away held $4,000 of
our boys in blue. Several states
had erected monuments in commem-
Grafton of their own soldiers, who
had died there.

was also present, who gave a very
entertaining talk concerning her
early remembrances of the civil
war;" Also on why We Love the

thought the Office Of patriotic in
structor an important one. That
the younger generation needed just
such training as could only be
given by those who passed through
those trying times.

but declined, and the meeting closed
at the suggestion of the musician by
the singing of The Star Spangled

Sunday School Program.

The missionary program given on
Sunday by the Methodist Sunday
school proved to be quite new de-
parture: being wholly on "Syste-
matte and Proportionate Giving"
The missionary societies insist on
this being taught as the scriptural
plan. Nine girls Of the juniors re-
cited scripture texts on giving,
especially emphasizing this one.
Give, and it shall be given to you,
good measure, pressed down, and
shaken together, and running over,
shall men give into your bosom.
For with the same measure that We
mete withal, it shall be measured to
you again.
Some striking instances were also
given. One of Fulton, a New York
merchant, who gave many millions
to the Lords work. He reached
New York on foot in his 10Th year,
carrying all he owned in bundle.
On securing employment in soap
factory, he strictly set aside tenth
of every dollar he earned. He be-
came a partner, and later sole pro-
prietor. He made a good soap, put
full weight and prospered. All the
time increasing the Lords share I'M
til it became half, and afterwards
the whole of the proceeds of his
business.
Another boy whose mother was a
poor widow having hard struggle
to provide for her family; yet she
insisted on their giving a share of
the Titles they could earn. Often
saying, when you earn more boys
you must give more" This boy ac-
cepted her teaching and was so
blessed and prospered that he gave
away more than 100000, while one
of his brothers who would not give,
became destitute and was for Ia
years dependent on his liberal broth

Miss Edith Burmeister conducted
the program, and Miss Ethel Ander-
son recited an appropriate poem.

A travelling man tells this story:
He was in the smoking car when
man rushed in from the car behind,
evidently in great agitation and
said: HAS anyone in this car any
whiskey? A woman in the other car
has tainted. Instantly dozen TASKS
were produced. The man who had
asked for it. picked out the largest
one, drew the cork and put the bot
tie to his lips. With long satisfied
sigh he handed the flask back and
remarked: "That did me lot of
good. | needed it, for it always
makes me sick to see woman faint
away"
Springfield Advance: After next
Saturday another radical change will
be inaugurated in the train service on
this division of the Northwestern.
The Winona Marshall passenger,
which was put on in place of the
Hughes train some months ago, will
be abandoned and as near as can be
learned no new train will be put on
to take it's place. Thus instead of
better train service the company
will economic by giving the public
tho hopoE+ of nc ,,oor n cor,,;oo oc
this division has ever experienced.
The train which is to be abandoned
was scheduled to arrive here from
the west at 9:15 a. m. and reach
Mankato in ample time to make con-
nections with the twin city passen-
ger, and returning the train arrived
here from the east at 1905. The
company claims lack of patronage
necessitates this latest move. If
that be the case an effort should be
made to again secure Hughes train,
which apparently received liberal
patronage.
Vesta Censor: J. H. Kuntz, agent
for the Schmid & Anderson Elevator
company at Vesta, has been making
regular weekly trips to Springfield,
supposed to have been for the pur-
pose of talking over business with
his employer and visiting with his
parents, who live in that town, but
his trips were of different nature,
but none of his friends here were
any the wiser, until last Sunday
evening. Saturday evening Miss En-
ma Beckman, one of Brown county's
successful teachers and an accom-
plished young lady, who resides at
Springfield, came up to Vesta to
visit at the A. P. Lemke home. and
Sunday morning stated that she
would have to drive to Redwood. in

MUCH INTEREST
MANIFESTED HERE

Much interest in Pensacola and this
section OF Florida is taken in the
above news, inasmuch as q year ago
the confirmation of Postmaster Nor
thup was defeated by the late Senator
Mallory, who made objection, and
while nothing has been said of the APP
pointment since that time, it was real
lied by those closely in touch with af-
fairs that the matter would be taken
up at the present congress, either by
the president or by some of the sena-
tors who were instrumental In defat-
ing the nomination.
1t was anticipated by many that the
move would be made prior TO this
date. but it is evident that Senator
Taliaferro has been waiting in hope
the president would bring the matter
before me senate. but as he has not
done so the senator has taken up tha
matter in the senate in executive ses-
sion.

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 22.-Wm. Jen-

took occasion to say that the idea that
prosperity was an inevitable result of
republican ascendeEcy and admins

the last few months, and contrasted
the ridicule heaped unon his advo-
cacy Of the silver dollar with the
prayerful anxiety with which capital
lists recently had grabbed for clearing
house certificates. He did not blame
President Roosevelt for the panic, but
he scored the present laws and their

ate to the fact that William H. North
rup is serving as postmaster at PEN
sacoIa, Fla, in view or the fact that
his nomination was formally rejected

pOintment.
The case is violation of all prece-

ceived recess appointments when the
senate has failed to act, either by
