Widow Of the Late Commanding Con

10 Not Considering
Matrimony.
IS AN EASTERN STORY
Retired coinelnnati Banker 10 Said to
Have Secured a License But
Did Not Use

The eastern press has been giving
Mrs. Georgia Schofield quite good
deal Of prominence lately, reporting
that she Is about to remarry. That
the former Keokuk lady has no inten
lions of being married again, was
denied last Saturday by her mother
Mrs. Augusta w Kilbourne Of this
city.
The following dispatch from st
Augustine, Fla, probably started the
rumors in the east that Mrs. Schofield
contemplated matrimony:
John H. Hewson, retired Cincinnati
banker, now resident of New York
explained today the returning on Sat.
urday last by him to the chief clerk
of the District Of Columbia the IL
cense by which he was to marry Mrs.
Georgia Kilbourne schofleld, widow
of Lieut.-Gen. Schofield, U. s. A.
Il returned the license said he,
because it was limited to ten days,
and as the marriage to Mrs. Schofield
was indefinitely postponed"
The license was returned with this
curt note: "The within will not be
used. Washington advices say that
licenses there are good for one year,
The mystery of the break between
the middle-aged lovers remains unex-
planned. Mrs. Schofield said that the
wedding had been postponed to suit
her convenience, but would not an

KEOKUK COULD
GET CONVENTION.
Upper Mississippi River Improvement
Association Should be Invited
to Meet Here Next
Year.
WATER POWER ATTRACTS
The Fact That the Dam Would be
Almost Completed Would
Influence the Delegates
to Attend.

The annual convention of the Upper
Mississippi River Improvement Asso-
citation for the year 1911 should be
held in Keokuk and undoubtedly will
be If Keokuk will request 1t.
The meeting of last year was held in
Winona, MINI, on October 6 and Z
and this years meeting is to be held
at st. Paul. The meeting for next
year will logically come to city on
the lower end of the upper river and
Keokuk is the one place to hold it.
By October, 1911, the work on the
water power dam will have progressed
so far, that the great work will be
one of the big show features along the
whole river and this alone will be
enough argument to induce the dele
gates at the meeting in st. Paul next
summer to vote to hold the next meet
ing in Keokuk.
The ninth annual convention will
be held at st. Paul on July IL and Is
of this year and Keokuk will be we'll
represented at the meeting. This city
has always been a member of the
association and sends quite a delega-
ton to the meetings, Keokuk men
taking an active part in the work
each year Thomas Wilkinson of
Burlington is the president and the
association is composed of the river
towns from St Louis to st. Paul.
Some time this spring the delegates
from Keokuk to the st. Paul meeting
will be appointed and at that time
they should be given instructions to
invite the next meeting to come to
Keokuk. There is hardly a doubt but
what the invitation would be accepted
on account of the water power work
being under way as this is the most
important river Improvement work
ever done along the river since the
building of the canal here and would
be great feature for the convention
Two hundred or more delegates at
tend these meetings and the Keokuk
convention would likely be record
breaker in the way of attendance The
conventions of the organization since
1t was formed in Quincy In 1902 have
been held as follows
1903 at Davenport; 1904 at Dubuque:
1905 at Lacrosse: 1906 at Minneap-
oils; 1907 at Moline; 1908 at Clinton
1909 at Winona.

new DES MONIES
RIVER BRIDGE
Word Comes Today From Official That
New Bridge Will Span River
Mouth Near This
City.
SIX MONTH TO COMPLETE
Work Will Commence Within the Next
Three Months and Heavier
Structure viii be
| Installed.
SIX MONTH TO COMPLETE

Today comes the announcement
from an authoritative source and the
men in charge of the actual construc-
ton, that within nine months, at the
most, new, heavy iron bridge will
span the Des Moines river in place
of the one which now stands. three
miles below this city.
In conversation with a reporter OF
this paper this morning, Henry Zim-
norman, master carpenter Of the c.,
B. & O., with headquarters In Hanni-
bal, said: Within three months or
probably less time, practically new
bridge will be built across the Des
Moines river by the g., B. & @. rail-
road company. Work cannot start i'm
mediately on account of numerous 9th
err work, which is being done by the
company's men along the way, else
where"
Last year. one new span was put
in the bridge and when the new span
was added, the one installed last year;
will be the oldest one; all others to
be removed. by orders from the con-
struction department of the road.
Mr. Zimmerman states that the
present bridge is not in bad condition
although the structure has become
weakened by time, the bridge being
not new one by any means The five
new spans will mean 900 feet added to
the structure after all but the newest
span has been taken out by the work
men. This will mean running dis
lance of 1870 feet In each span, to be
built of the best material procurable
and the structure made one of the
strongest.
Not Heavy Enough.
The bridge standing at the present
time is not heavy enough to run the
larger road engines over it and it is
with exceedingly low speed that heavy
engines now pass over the bridge. The
bridge is owned by the c., B. & O.
Railroad company, who for some time
have seen the need of much heavier
structure and the recent order to re
construct the spans has been planning
for number of months.
Work to Begin in Spring.
Work on the bridge will commence

@ Sees Water Power?

To present an entire new bridge to
this locality, to span an adjacent body
of water, is really more than it seems
and although there may be the idea
of improving the road service and PIT
ting in a Stronger bridge for the safe
ty of their equipment and patrons, the
building of the dam is thought to fig
ure prominently in the installation of
the bridge. Contemplating COMPETE
ton from one source Or another the
@ has no doubt decided to be ahead of
the game and should rivals press close
ly, they will be prepared with the
best of equipment to go after the bust
ness.

TO Cost Thousands.


What the cost of the five new spans
will be cannot be estimated in a min
ute and it was impossible to quote
any figure today. 1t is a certainty
though that the undertaking will mean
an expenditure of fifty or sixty thou
sand dollars, estimating roughly.
AS previously stated, the bridge is
being almost entirely renewed to meet
the demands of heavy traffic on the
structure. Although heavy engines and
trains can pass over in per<ect safety,
much valuable time can be saved
when a stronger structure is built, the
trains not having to be slowed down
to any great degree and then started
again.
A large number Of men will be en-
ployed in the building of the new Des
Moines river bridge, the pile drivers,
the iron-workers and other depart
ments concerned in the building of a
bridge, to aggregate large force un-
til the work is completed.
The building material will come
from Chicago, the iron castings and
the stone, lumber and other necessi-
ties will be secured locally from the
company's supplies.

Bryan Family Reunion.

An annual family reunion Of
the Bryan family of Monroe anG
adjacent counties, was held or
Thursday the 21st inst. at New
Hope church, Z miles North Of
Aberdeen.
Mr.. ]. D. Bryan, of Nettleton,
was the master of ceremonies
and directed the events of the
day. One of the most interest.
ing Of these was a review Of the
history Of the family by Mr.. A
L. Bryan. the oldest member
present. who has reached his 85th
year. This review was interest
ing alike to both old and young
Of the family and to the many
friends who had gathered to
witness the happy occasion. On
the program for the day were
songs and recitations- by mem
bers Of the family.
Owing to the prevalence OF
whooping cough the number Of
the family present was not so
large as usual. only 80 responded
to roll call. In 1908 one hundred
and forty answered to their
names, while in 1909 one hum
dred and twenty-eight members
were present.
Within the past year three
members, children, have died.
These annual reunions of the
family are occasions which bring
together many who see each
other only at such times. Family
ties are thus renewed and with
each succeeding year the bonds
that bind them grow stronger
and wider.

1t is said that Bilbo gets the
crowl wherever he goes. If peo-
pie 90 out to hear him through
mere curiosity, as they go to see
a freak, it may possibly be ex-
eusable, but if they endorse him
Eor his utterances in any manner,
then their going is no credit to
the citizenry of our common
wealth. He is patting-up him
self and his version of the eau
Gus" against the word of some
of the very best citizens Of the
state, and it would not take any
man with a thimble full Of com
mon sense and even q jotor little
of honesty, under the circum-
stances, to rate him as a con
summate liar and blatherskite
West Point Leader.
