MUNICIPALITIES WANT A SPECIAL SESSION.

Pts HE resolutions adopted by the executives OF Essex county
municipalities at the City Hall conference last night nave
the right ring. In contrast the resolution reported to the
Board of Trade last night and adopted is puer1le. Whars the
sense of demanding an investigation, when the State Railroad Com
mission has already instituted one? And what is the utility o an
investigation by an impotent State board? AT the mayors corner
ence the demand was for a special session OF the Legislature 1orth-

The matter has been referred to the Interstate Commerce Commits

Attorney General Wickersham has fatty declared that the question
is not one that the Federal government will interfere in. The
people of the communities in northern New Jersey want the gov
ernor to call a special session of the Legislature. They are fully
satisfied that that is the only course to pursue. The mayors con-
ference voices that demand.

because of the advent of those people
at Nauvoo and the marked swarms of
flies near the same time, they must
have appeared in special localities,
every year for countless ages.
Today another river fly was observ-
ed-This was called the Mormon fly
also, but it is very different from the
two already described. 1t is much
larger than the Mormon fly; wings
lace-plain, handsomely nerved, and
expand one and half inches. 1t is
remarkable in having two tails, much
larger than the body. They appear
along the river completely covering
wharves, docks, lumber piles, houses.
In July is, 1909, an electric light globe
was filed with them. Their stay was
short. Known as Hexagenia bilineata.
Of this order Ephemerida, about three
hundred species only have been de-
scribed and there are many more.
How long will they continue to
swarm? There is no data available
that give times of first appearance
and final disappearance of the flies.

SATISFIED WITH
THE OVERLAPPING
Keokuk Electric Light Company will
Have the Large Hamilton-cor-
liss Engine In Com
mission Soon.
ALL CIRCUITS CONTINUE
Lights will Probably Not Have to be
Shut OF During the Repairs
Except Over in
Illinois.

Repairs and general overhauling of
the large Hamilton Corliss engine at
the power plant of the Keokuk Elec-
trio Railway and Power Company, are
being vigorously pushed by those in
charge and shortly it is expeced that
the big machine will again be in tip
top condition. 1t has been necessary
to make new bores, and clean and re-
furnish the parts of the giant engine
that has not been dismantled in five
or six years, and put 1t in a newer
condition.
Last evening during the time the
light load was heaviest, the lights in
Hamilton and Warsaw were cut off for
a short time. Manager Ayres of the
Electric Company stated that it will
probably not be necessary to discon-
tinue the service in various parts Of
the city to private consumers as was
first expected. The company is doing
it's best to get the Hamilton orliss
machine overhauled so that no incon-
venience will be caused patrons.
Manager A. D. Ayres and E.. L.
Patterson spent some time at the plant
on the canal today looking after the
various details of the repairs and
overhauling of the engine in the hands
of the mechanics and report favorably
on the progress being made.

TALENT FOR
Y.M.C.A COURSE
The Star Lecture Course for the
Season Of 1910 and 1911 Con-
sists of Well Known
Stars.
IT'S UP TO KEoKUK
If Enough Tickets Are Not Sold to
Guarantee Expenses the
Course will be
Dropped.

The talent for the Y NJ C. A. Star
lecture course for the season of 1910
and 1911 have been selected and the
contracts will be closed as soon as
committees sent out by the associa>
ton can secure enough subscribers for
season tickets to guarantee the ex-
penses for the course. The course is
not run as money making scheme
for the association, but simply as a
feature of the social work and the Of
Ulcers do not feel like taking the risk
of losing money again as was the case
with last years entertainments. Com
mittees will soon go among the people
to secure their cooperation and it
will be entirely in the hands of the
Keokuk public to signify whether or
not they wish to have the course an
other year by tneir manner in SUBJ
scribing for course tickets.
The talent selected are some of the
very best on the present day lecture
platform. Senator Thomas P Gore,
the blind senator from Oklahoma will
probably be the first attraction. Sen
ator Cores career has attracted a
great deal of attention throughout the
United States. Although blind he
made the canvass Of the state of
Oklahoma and was elected the first
senator from that state in a most
holly contested race. In speech be-
fore the Denver convention his re

FyPERT TELLS
OF THE INSECTS
DR.. j. M. shaffer Writes Of Those
Things Which People are Calling
Mormon Flies.

To the Editor of The Gate City.
The Golden Yellow River Flies
Potomoyis fava is the insect which is
pest to many from its immense nnm-,
bers. This paper is prepared in reply
to many inquiries and to correct a
common error. These flies belong tt.
the order Ephemerida. whence comes
our common word ephemeral- living
for 3 day, but these live two or three
days. They are harmless; have no
mouth: no digestive organs. Noted
for the great length of the upper
wings, and the comparative shortness
of the under wings. The numbers in
which they swarm is extraordinary,
as very many of our people can testify.
DR.. L. A. Howard drove through a
cloud of them on the st. Lawrence
river when the air and the ground
and the clothing looked as though a
snow storm was raging Their early
stages are always passed in the water.
The larvae are active; breathe by
means of fracheal gills; they both
swim and crawl and feed largely up
on vegetable matter. as seaweeds, and
the like. The larval life extends from
one to three years. These larvae
furnish food for the fresh water fish.
Dr. Howard was appealed to with re-
gard to the possible determination of
these insects along the st. Lawrence,
but such result would be extremely
undesirable, as with the flies must
also perish the fine fish and fishing
possibilities OF that stream. Prof.
Forbes, state entomologist of Illinois
examined the food of over 1,200 fish
and found that large proportion of
fresh water fish depended more or less
completely on insects as food and
could therefore not exist without the
insects. And there is a larger proper
tion from the lace-wings than any 9TH
er group.
Careful observers say that the rob-
in, grackle, thrush, wren have been
seen eating these flies, carrying them
to their young, and devouring them in
great numbers. So in this locality
this plague of flies may preserve the
lives of our common birds and com
pensate for the lack of fruits and the
marked scarcely of other insects. The
error alluded to is in calling these
the Mormon fy This is quite differ
ent insect and perhaps has not ap-
peared here for eight years. 1t is
known in the books as Macronemize-
bratum. Like others of this group it
has no mouth and passes its larval
life in the water It's habitat is from
Canada south to Virginia. Length
over inch, and expansion of wings
more than an inch. The wings are
beautifully spotted and shaded with
yellowish brown.
In 1868 Prof. Walsh of Rock Island
Illinois, wrote history of their ap
pearance at Montrose and Keokuk ir
countless numbers. The air was filled
with them. and they had been swarm
ing in myriads for three weeks. This
was in June. Called Mormon file!

Fair weather was the welcome
climatic condition that stayed with
the fishing party during its outing and
an enormous number of the finny
beauties of the deep lake were landed

fish caught during the outing was that
