t,om the grand master Of the grand

communication asking the Masons of

~ The communication was written
n latin and had to sent to. the Ia
comic library at Cedar Radips for
translation into English.
The grand master responded to the
appeal Immediately by instructing the
Grand secretary, N. r. Parvin, to
send $500 from the emergency fund of
The grand ledge to the ,-'rand orient of
italy for the immediate relief of the
destitute and suffering Masons OF the
stricken districts of that country. In
addition to this amount it is likely
that an appeal will be made by the
Grand master to the sis lodges in this
state for the benefit of the lodges In
Italv, as was done for the San Fran
cisco sufferers, and thousands of dol
lars was raised in this manner-in
act more money was sent to the re-
lief of the Masons and their families
IN San Francisco than could be used,
and part Of it was returned.
A similar appeal has been made to
ali grand lodges in the United
States and to all in the world, as well
as to all other grand Masonic bodies,
and when they have all beer heard
from the grand orient of Italy will
have hundreds of thousands of dollars

The Last Service Of the Specially
Planned Service Of Meetings
Held at Methodist Epis-
copal Church.
SOME OF THE RESULTS
Or. Potter Preached a Most Con.
vincing sermon-EvaneeIistic
Spirit No Doubt Will Pre-
vail in Future.

The closing service of the especially
planned two and one-half weeks series
of revival services was held at Trinity
Methodist church last night.
There was splendid audience pres
ent. The opening song service was
enjoyed as usual, also the song by Miss
Oldham. Tell Mother I'll Be There"
in which the choir joined in the
chorus.
DR.. Potter's Scripture lesson was
found in the tenth chapter of First
Samuel and the part of the Scripture
mon is found in the twenty-second
verse: And the Lord answered, Be-
hold he hath hid himself among the
stuff"
The Scripture refers to Saul hiding
when he was about to be crowned king
at Mizpah.
The entire story of Saul's GROWING
was entertainingly related, but on the
part of the story as explained in the
text did DR.. Potter especially dwell.
odul ) HlulHS dI lne very liihe the
people were wanting to crown him
king was likened unto individuals in
these times who are constantly on the
hide from God when He is willing and
waiting to crown them with the glori-
Gus crown of kfngship.
The sermon was from the stand
point of forcefulness and logical reas-
oning one of the best ever delivered
from Keokuk pulpit.
To attempt to report it in these col
umns without giving it verbatim would
be a gross injustice, for no part of the
sermon could very we'll be left out
without breaking the thread of argu-
mcnt as was woven throughout.

A second personal injury suit
against the city and Gimre & Co.,
growing out of alleged injuries re-
ceived by Mrs A. d. Woods, which
are based on the claim that the side

an injured. The husband seeks dam

CONTRACT is AUTHORIZED:
Denatured Alcohol Company Will Ac
cent Smaller Sewer for Plant.

The city council Monday night ai-
thorized the mayor and city attorney
to prepare and sign for the city a con-
tract with the National Denatured AL
cohol Company, relative to the new
sewer to be built for the plant. The
company has decided that by rear
ranging the plant an eighteen-inch
sewer will answer the purposes as we'll
Jas twenty-four inch, and a resolu-
tion was introduced to build the
eighteen-inch sewer.
The company is ready to enter into
the contract, the outline of which has
been given heretofore. A contract pre-
pared is Objectionable in some ways,
but these objections can be overcome.
The principal phase objected to was a
clause in which the company would be
compelled to be responsible for any
pollution of the river Contributed to"
by it's sewage. The company is willing
to guarantee its own sewage from con-
Eliminating the river, but it does not
care to stand responsible for any I'M
ion of its sewage and some other form
of sewage, that might prove HARM
full to animal life. AS the sewer that
will be used by the new concern is at
least mile distant from any other
sewer, it is not believed that there
could be any union under these con-
ditions.
