To See You in Few
Years"
FLEETS ARE COMING
Motor Boats Have Left Louisiana and
Other Lower River Points and
viii Pass Keokuk
Soon.

a fleet of ten motor boats is on the
way up the river and due to pass
heokuk at any time, leaving Louis
lana,, st. Louis, Cairo and elsewhere,
all on their way to Dubuque to attend
the motor boat races there on the
Fourth, fifth and sixth of July. The
fleets are running ahead of their
schedule as 1t is yet a week before
the races are to be held and from
heokuk to Dubuque is but distance
OF little more than two hundred
miles.
Come to keokuk Lake.
Major M. Meigs has received a let
ter from Commodore St Claire EIDE,
head of the Dubuque Motor Boat club,
under date of the oath inst, in which
the northern river man states that
every one will be coming to Keokuk
just as soon as the dam is built and
the big forty mile lake has been form
ed. Every one the entire length of
the Mississippi has heard of the dam
and the immense lake which will be

and motor boat men especially are of
the opinion that one of the finest
racing courses for their boats to be
found in the world will be here at
Keokuk and as far north as the back
water extends, forming the deep chan
mel.
In his letter to Major Meigs, Com.
modore st. c. EIDE speaks of several
things as follows:
am very pleased to receive yours
of the Gath inst, and to know what
boats to look out for. Our entertain
ment committee will look after this
matter at once for you.
1t has just been reported that 100
boats have passed Louisiana, Mo-, on
the road to the regatta. We are try
ing to confirm the report. 1t listens
like an cxaggeration.
You certainly will have great
race course in few years, and we will
all be down to see you.
Thanking you for the information
given us, and hoping to be able to
see you in few days, l beg to re-
main, Yours sincerely,

and disobedient. The situation was
then explained to the assembled
guests and volunteers were asked to

mony proceeded as If nothing had
happened.
"Afterward the bridal pair left the
altar by different aisles to hold a re-
ception under tree, where congrat-
ulations and rice were poured upon
them. The groom placed a silver ring
upon the great toe of the brides left
