Hugh Cooper stated in regard to the
statement that Mr.. Walsh might 1t
his power from the Edwards river
plant, that If the coal was given him
free the Keokuk company still could
make lower price on current than
Mr.. Walsh. This Edwards river power
plant is l,cated right at the mouth of
the coal mines on the Rock Island
Southern, owned by the Walsh Bros,
and the coal is handled most econom-
ically. Mr.. Walsh told the council
some time ago that he was consider
ing the project OF stringing trans
mission line from his Illinois power
plant to Burlington. Since then moth
ing has been heard of this project.
That important developments may
be expected in the way of Burlington
securing cheaper power for CONNER
cial use will occur before many weeks

The council does not propose to act
hastily in the matter Of Mr. Cooper s
communication, however. but wiz give
Lit the same careful and exhaustive at
tention that was bestowed upon the
petition for franchise. which came
last spring from the Burlington Power
Co.. a corporation by local capitalists.

JOSEPH N. LEVEQUE DEAD.
Well known Newspaper Man Succumbs to
Heart Trouble.

New York, Dec. 31.-Joseph
M. Leveque, editor and comic
opera libretist. died of heart
failure Saturday. He was born
in Natchitoches, La, AZ years
ago, edited a weekly paper and
did editorial work on New Or
leans dailies, and later edited a
woman's magazine in st. Louis.
In recent years he wrote the
librettos of several comic operas,
which were successfully pro-
duced.
In the death Of Joe Leveque a
mighty pen is stilled, a pictur-
esque character passes to the
other world.
Did Leveque speak from his
heart when he Numbered in his
editorials and made men quake?
We believe he did.
Impulsive of nature, perhaps
he overstepped the bounds very
often.
But it was never ~hypocracy
that surged forth like the angry
voice of a Soul Of Tarsus, and
told Of things other men dare not
tell.
He was never, andnever would
have been a financial success.
It is Policy that Wooes and
wins Mammon.
It is fearlessness and sincerity
that gather the storm of life.
And the storm has never beat
more fiereely against a life than
it did against that Of Joe Lee
vogue.
Here's a flower for the bier Of
Toe

BREAUK P R {.
Diets 81 FOR
RICE.
Crowley Signal:

Crowley Signal:
S. Locke Breaux, the New Or
leans rice factor, is one Of those
who is decidedly optomistic as to
the rough rice outlook and be-
lieves that the prices now pre-
vailing are the minimum at
which rough rice will be sold
during this rice year. In fact
Mr.. Breaux looks for a strength
ening of the market but while
he predicts 81 rice, he is cautious
about advising a further holding
on the present market basis. In
his end-of-the-year market let
ter MI. Breaux says:
Weeks end and years end
finds the market strong as to
tone, at practically the highest
prices Of the season.
1T would not surprise me to
see prices go to a $4.00 basis,
but I believe that the present is
a good time to sell, just as, it is
automatic in trading, that the
time to sell is when the demand
exists.
I invite shipments; can let
you have money against same
and am prepared to carry the
rice as against limits.
For instance, as to grade, if
a man is reasonable as to his
idea of value, we will put that
value on it, and if we don't get
it son arrival, it costs mighty
little for storage and insurance
SC per sack per month-to carry
it until we do get our price"

Many persons are fond of cabbage,
but not at all fond of the unpleasant
fumes which penetrate the entire
house during the recess of boiling.
Reduce the cabbage to small pieces
nearly fine enough for slaw, then stew
for one-half hour in covered kettle
with not enough water to cover it.
When done drain off the water and
season with salt, pepper and Ii
beral quantity of butter, using vinegar
at the table.
Served in this way you have a nice
vegetable much more delicate than
boiled cabbage, and suitable to eat
with any kind OF meat you have on
hand. MRS. BEATRICE PAGE.
