COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT BUR-
CESS EXPECTS LARGE At
TENDANCE THIS YEAR

The daily program of the Wapello

through Friday has been issued by
County Superintendent Elizabeth Bur-
CESS and copies Of the same have been

an enjoyable as well as a profitable
session this year.
The sessions will open at o'clock

conducting classes in the various
school branches In the different class
rooms. The recitation rooms have
been assigned as follows: Professor
Wilson in room No. 10; Miss Josephine

Harrison in room No. 4; Professor
Benson in room No. 8; Professor

RAISE sum BY
SuBSCRIpT TONS
oTTUMWA MUST FURNISH $4,000
FOR THE oTTUMWA-IoWA
CITY INTERURBAN.
HAVE USE or STREETS
Plenty Of Available Sites for Terml-
nal Of Road-Must Secure Twelve
Miles Of Right Of Way
For Line

Those who thought several months
ago that the proposed line between
Ottumwa and Iowa City was all talk,
have suddenly changed their minds
ana an electric road between the two
enterprising cities looks to be more
of an assured thing every day. The
interurban committee of the OF
tumwa Commercial association will
soon start out to solicit the $4,000
which Ottumwa must put up to secure
the line. Iowa City promised to raise
100000 and has already done the
trick, as the Iowa Cityans are greatly
interested in the line. The interurban
directors do not believe that 1t will be
a hard task to raise the required sum
in Ottumwa. Those making subscrip-
tons to the road will be given that
amount in stock. Ottumwa must also
furnish twelve miles of right of way
which would be from Ottumwa to Far
son. This would also be secured by
subscription, those giving, receiving
stock in the corporation. II is thought
that many of the farmers will be
willing to give the road free right OF
way over their farms rs the benefits
derived would be many times the
value which would be received
by them for the narrow strip Of land.
Have Use Of Streets.
Ottumwa must also furnish the OF
tumwa-Iowa City interurban line right
Of way over the streets, but this mat
ter has been cared for by the Inter
urban company which has franchise
giving it permission to use the streets
Welln1an, Keota and other towns
along the line which would tap the
finest farming country in Iowa, are
making subscriptions to the line, and
every one is eager to see 1t go
through.
Ottumwa would be required to fur'
nish terminals for the road In this
city, but this is one of the easiest
propositions. There are many avail
able sites for freight depot and
trackage facilities, but the only fault
is that they are not near the business
district of the city. The committee IN
charge of terminals has several good
locations, one in the East End, one IN
Central addition and the other in the
west part of the city. One farmer re-
siding just outside of the city has
made an excellent offer to the road,
giving them terminal grounds, provid-
ing the hne passes through bis, prop

LONG SESSION
Goes TO QUINCY
SPEED BOYS LOSE HARD LUCK
CONTEST TO VETERANS,
GOING TWELVE INNINGS
SCORE WAS 3 10 ?.
Dunn Weakened In Twelfth and
Walked Rouse and Walker and
Rurg's Single Sent Winning
Tally Over Rubber.

Quincy. Aug. 4.-(Special)--Man-
ager Babe Myers veterans won the
second game of the series from the
Speed Boys yesterday afternoon at
Highland park, but they had to carry
the contest to twelve innings to do It,
and then they were assisted by pieces
Of hard luck on the part of Kensel and
Pitcher James Dunn. tt was the most
exciting mix witnessed in these parts
for some time and the hundreds OIL
fans sat on an anxious seat until the
dozenth chapter when Dunn issued
two passes, Kensel committed an
error and Burg's single sent Rouse
across the home station with the
needed tally.
Johnston Gets Homer.
Jimmy Johnston, the feet footed
second sacker of the speed boys
nearly spelt defeat for the Veterans
in the eleventh inning when he lifted
the horsehide over the fence for q
home run, but Quincy came back in
her part of the same chapter and tied
the score and through luck got the
needed mineral in the twelfth. Egan's
prcteges demonstrated to the Quincy
fans that they were entitled to the
name of Speed Boys when Oaks and
Senno pilfered the sacks under the
eagle eye of Clarke.
Walker, the Quincy giant, and
Jimmy Dunn, the wiry twlrler OF
Egan's staff opposed each other on the
firing line and both twirled excellent
games. Walker, however, had the best
of the argument and struck out hfteen
men. but he was also touched up fof
eight bingles. Quincy got nine safetles
off of Dunn. Both sides were shut
out until the seventh when OttumWa
sent Oaks across the count station
when the third sacker had singled,
differed the second sack and came
home on Borton's single. Quincy
saved herself from l to 0 defeat by
tying the score in the ninth when
Donahue singled and Clarke's three
base rap brought him in. The Speed
BOYS again maintained the lead IN the
eleventh when Johnston met the
globule viciously and sent her sailing
across the fence. Things looked glum
for Myers pennant aspirants when
thew came to bat in their half of the
eleventh. Burg walked to first and
scored on singles by Cavanaugh and
Donahue. Dunn weakened in the
twelfth and walked Rouse and Walker
Kensers error of Fleming's grounder
allowed them to advance base. After
Hartman had gone out Burg singled
sending Rouse the fielder-pitcher over
the rubber.

following expression was unanimously
given: Resolved, That we favor the

that he was nominated and elected to
that high Office with the aid Of Iowa
republicans, and that during the year
and a half OF his service as president
OF the United States he has fully justi.
fed the confidence placed in him by
the republican party. The record OF
