AND THIS A ROCKEFELLER!
Percy Would Not Let HAT Pirate"
Exchange His Decrepi; Kettle"
for New One.

Some folks believe that Percy
Rockefeller Is the white hope OF the
Rockefeller family. according to the
New York cores pondent OF the Gin
cinnau Times-Star He is credited
with being wise and wary. He keeps
a thumb on the public pulse, and
knows a lot of things about popular
sentiment that many other rich men
do not know. The other night he
went to Broadway restaurant with a
party of friends. The restaurant Is
rather a favorite OF his. and the I'M
mature pirate in charge of the hat
room had learned to know him. Mr..
Rockefeller handed him his mushed
and desiccated old brown hat as he
entered. 1t was a good hat-once, The
hat pirate looked on Mr.. Rockefeller
with pity in his gaze. BY and by MT.
Rockefeller's supper ended, and he re-
turned to the courtroom to retrieve his
bonnet Instead OF that decrepit old
brown lid the boy handed him new
one of the same general form, and
expensive maker. II fitted Rockefeller
perfectly, but he handed it back.
This isn't my hat" he said.
Get wise. bo,' the hat pirate said.

Mr.. Rockefeller said that was un-
doubtedly true. But he did not want
to rob an unknown of a new hat

VAN B. NORRIS

Duration.
FROM HEART. TROUBLE

Van B. Norris, we'll known In Keo-
kuk for the past several years, died
Sunday morning at 1:3O from inflam-
alton of the heart at the home of his
parents In Keosauqua.
The deceased had made his home
in Keokuk until six weeks ago when
he went to the home place at Keo-
sauqua, to reside with his father and
mother.
Mr.. Norris was one of the best
known BARRIERS in Keokuk for the
past several years, having conducted
shop of his own here recently and
had been in the employ of Otto Rock
enbach and Riley Osburn until a
short time ago.
The deceased was a man about
thirty-three years of age and had liv-
ed In this section all his life. He en-
listed in the cause of the nation when
the Spanish-American troubles broke
out, and served until the end of the
war, military duties having been a
hobby of his and he had made an ex-
cellent soldier. He was one of the ac-
tive boosters for Company L of this
city.
Besides the parents. a sister, Mrs.
McClurg, wife of DIR. McClurg of
Milton, and another sister, Miss Del
la Norris of Keosauqua survive.
Funeral services were held this af-
ternoon at two O'Clock in Keosauqua,
several keokuk friends of the deceas-
ed attending.

coulter's Famous R. R. Shows.

The great Coulter Show, which is
advertised to appear in Keokuk next
| Thursday claims to be different from
other shows, and, Judging from the
great variety of features and attrac-
lions advertised it will have no
trouble to convince it's patrons that it
is very different from other tent
shows After due reflection, the oft
repeated sentiment, when you have
seen one circus you have seen them
ALL appears very absurd. One might
as well say, when you have read one
magazine, you have read them all, or
when you have heard one lecture you
have heard them all, or when you
have heard one band you have heard
them all" as to say, when you have
seen one circus you have seen them
ALL" visit to the Coulter show will
convince the most skeptical such sen.
timental talk Is foolish, without foun-
dalton, and upon investigation 1t re-
solves itself into an exaggerated alb
surdity. The Great Coulter Show has
horses and so have other shows, but
Inc tJtSdL NJOultSl koloW . noNC tii1 oVcl
horses in the land. Other shows have
bands, acrobatic performers, riders,
etc, but they are very different from
those with the Coulter Show. 1t pays
higher salries, and not only secures
superior performers, mentioned above,
but 1t has many novel, new and n1ys-
terious acts that cannot be initiated
by other people successfully. Most OF
the names and acts advertised by the
Coulter Show are to be seen only with
that show.
Those people in this community
who have not visited circus during
recent years because they supposed
they were all alike will do we'll to Wis
1t the Coulter Show, and they will be
most agreeably and pleasantly sur
prised, and they will be forced to ad.
NIT that the Great Coulter Shows are
similar to others in but a few minor
points, and that. as a wole in quality,
quantity and character it is far differ
ent from other tented concerns.

On KILLING Snakes.

The fact that some snakes eject
poison against their enemies is held
to justify their indiscriminate extinc,

not have the choice of their means
OF defense: they necessarily took
what the Lord gave them and they
act as instinct directs.
