MEN TAKE PRIDE IN SHIP

Tive ARMY and Navy Journal Prints an
Article in Which is Given the Ex-
ccl,ent Record of the Battleship
Named for the Old North State
Few Descrtions and All Crew Takes
Pride in the Ship.
The Army and Navy Journal. pub
1ishcd in New York, printed the fol-
wins about the u. S. S. North Caro-
lima. which will be read with a great
deal of interest:
Capt. C. C. Marsh, U. S. N, in com
mand of the Z. S. S. North Carolina,
which arrived in New York a few days
ago. is justly proud Of his snip and its
officers and men. In speaking to a
New York Tribun. reporter Captain
Marsh was quoted as follows: The
men under my command have had no
leave since last November. We are
trying to give them leave now. w
have had very few desertions since we
left Hampton Roads, There were
eleven men missing, at r%ol-call at
eleven men missing at rOll-caI at
call. [ do not know Why this is except
that the men TAX pride in their ship
and the work that they do. We have
been down on the Southern drill
grounds, and the North Carolina has
made a record for herself which she
may be proud Of. Without a search
light our guns nave hit forty-tWo per
cent Of the targets they have fired at.
We have only ONE ship which has
made a better record, but we hope to
excel her performance at the next test.
l wish to call attention to the fine
work of Robert NJ. Munroe, ensign. U.
S. n. The guns under his charge did
remarkably we'll, and I think Mr..
Munroe should have some credit for
his performance. He served his guns
admirably, and their record for hits is
a credit to the navy"

SYNOD MEETING
WAS A BUSY ONE.
REV. o. A. HENRY RETURNS AND
REPORTS DELIBERATIoN OF
BIG CHURCH BODY.

Rev. O. A. Henry, pastor Of the
Swedish Lutheran church, returned
this morning from Duluth, Mimi,
where he attended the sessions Of the
Augustana synod Mr.. Henry stated
that the weather was delightful.
delegates wearing overcoats in Il
evenings. One of the most importaA.
matters Of the meeting was an express,
sion from the synod in resolution
unanimously adopted to the effect that
in the different states school boards
should adhere to the limitations Inn
posed by law and Danish from the
school entertainments dances and
disseminating ideas at variance with
the doctrines Of the Christian religion.
The trustees of Augustana college
reported that the Denkman library at
Rock Island had been officially trans
ferred to the trustees. The building
having cost 100000 and is one OF the
finest library buildings In the west.
One Of the important questions was
the language problem. The synod al
ready has an English speaking con-
ference. The mission board was
authorized to elect field secretary,
who should give his whole time to the
task of establishing English speaking
congregations.
Reports from foreign mission fields
in India and China we're received.
Missionary Edwins from China was
present in person and reported that
China was an open door for the work
of the church.
About 800 delegates were present,

municant members.

WORK HAS BEGUN
ON FREIGHT HOUSE.
BUILDING FIRM ARRIVES ON THE
JOB AND PLANS FOR START
ING CONSTRUCTION.
ENGINEERS ARE HERE
Laid Out New Station and Yards
Ready for the Contractor, Who
With His Superintendent is
Ready to Begin.

To demonstrate that it means bust
ness when it speaks, the Rock Island
has already begun making ready for
house, which will take some six
months to complete, but when finished
will be the most modern freight station
in Ottumwa and vicinity, costing some
$4,000 to construct and equip. Con-
tracter Leake of Chicago whose firm
was awarded the contract for the
building of the new station, was in
Ottumwa yesterday with three of the
company's engineers and his local
superintendent, G.. H. Cobb of Chicago,
who will remain on the job until COM
pleted. The station was laid out and
plans were made for the handling of
business while the erection of the new
and razing of the old structures is
going on.
Viii! Make Change.
Contractor Leake is no stranger to
this kind of work, having at present
in course of construction number of
freight houses for the Rock Island in
lington at Council Bluffs. Engineers
G. w. Johnson M. L. Hayes and H.
Van Patten aof Chicago laid out the
new building, which owing to it's great
er width than the old building, will
lie considerable to the north of the
present structure. In order to meet
the changed conditions that will be i'm
posed by the new structure the tele-
graph poles and wires from Vine to
Union street will be taken down and
the wires cabled in a conduit under
ground to avoid interference with the
lay of the new building. The present
team and storage track at the north
side of the freight house will be car
ried further up the hill, within some
twenty feet of the alley behind Main
street. This will when completed. be
used as a team track entirely. StuJ
tracks will lie alongside the new sta
ton with one lead track and the main
line trackage.
Prepare For Future.
The platform or docks of the new
station will be feature of the new
structure These will extend over 100
feet beyond the length of the freight
house proper and one can readily see
the advantage of dockage some 200 |
feet in length If in few years 1t is
found necessary to increase the size of !
The freight house all that will be !
needed in the construction is the addi- |
over the dockage, which is built on a |
foundation equal in strength to that |
used beneath the building proper

BEAUTIFICATION A BUSINESS
ASSET.

A business man went to visit Mem
phis not long ago, to see what advant
ages that city offered as a place to
establish q branch of his factory. The
first thing he said to the two Mem
p.hs citizens who met him at the train
was:
Nov, let us hop into machine
and go out and see how you are fixed
for parks and boulevards and public
buildings"
please explain" he was asked.
DO you mean to say that you are
such lover Of the beautiful that you
wouldn't locate your branch in city
that has not it's fair proportion Of
parks, or an artistic city hall, and that
sort of thing?"
Lover Of the beautiful nothing!"
was the prompt reply. Il make furni-
ture. | must have plenty of good,
steady help to do it. No city is a
good city for the man who must have
good, steady help unless it has kept
step with other cities and provided
places for the helps sane and health
full recreation. That's Just business
There is, also, new day in the max
ing of public buildings; and if city
hasn't kept step there, either, and
hasn't started movement for fine,
artistic civic buildings it is a sign that
is wrong with that COM
nunity. 1t isn't on to it's job"
It may be added that the manufac-
urer decided to establish his branch |
