SHOOTING TIE RAPIDS
rs DANGEROUS FAD
But TWO Adventurous keokuk Men
Perform the Feat Successfully
Few Days Ago.

Concerning the intensified rapids
at the dam caused by the recent COM
pletion of the crib work, reader of
The Gate City has contributed the fol
lowing interesting communication rel
alive to the features of the work
AS the crib work was extended
further and further across the river
toward the power house, and the gap
grew smaller, the water rushing
through became rougher and more
broken until when only two cribs were
left to be placed it resembled huge
wave Just below the cribs and then a
boiling, frothing whirlpool
Visitors seeing the river now see
| the water at its toughest in the mid
/ die Of the river, but before the last
crib was placed, it was at the power
house side. and in the last two days
| the current ate up all the narrow
beach beside the embankment and
carried 1t off. leaving the rock rip rap
ionee more exposed to view.
Another curious feature was where
formerly one could walk from the
power house bank on sandy bottom
out a distance of seventy-five feet be
fore being over ones head. After the
two days of diverted current, owing te
the small gap, this was found to be
all washed away and now 1t Is over
a mans head in depth five feet from
shore.
Some of the more venturesome mer
had swan through when it was not Sc
rough-and when the gap was wider
INT no one cared to take the risk now
until two of the power house electric
|ians procured life preserver ant
tried it out. They floated through ant
struck the boiling pool and disappear
ed out eff sight and when they reap
reared were quite distance dow
stream.
AS they passed through the gap tn
men all stopped work for moment t.
vel, and many said the big Wav'
would suck them to the bottom AM
dash them into the rocks there.

Rose O'Hara gazed meditatiyely at
the violet ranges. 1t was long time
before she spoke. II am sorry IL I
have really injured her business" she
said at last; Il never thought of that
phase of it." Again she pondered the
matter SO deeply that she did not hear
him when he spoke to her Suppose"
she said finally, that you ask this lady
to take tea with me tomorrow after
noon, and then let us see If we cannot
come to some satisfactory and amicable
arrangement of this affair"
ooh, nonsense!" said Gaines. Don't
you bother can settle this thing
for you; there won't be any lawsuit |
was just trying to tease you"
She smiled at him very sweetly:
Nevertheless, should like to meet
her.
1.-TWO is company; you know what
three is" remarked Gaines gloomily.

Miss O'Hara spoke with peremptory
distinctness.

service, Willy Gaines," said Mrs. Mac
Chesney approvingly when he de-

could not manage"
/ Willy took the compliment brazenly
and without demur, not even the flicker
of smile upon his impassive coun-

"Of course I'll co. said his client.

I've never yet met great singer.

resentment we've got to pay for 1t, one
way or another, and II didn't train
myself to love her, ! might lose some
more money"
Think of training ones self to love
her" muttered Willy dazedly and
under his breath.
The next afternoon he marveled, not
for the first time, at the graceful and
exquisite duplicity Of the feminine
combatants in woman's war. Miss
O'Hara, he decided, had never ap
peared more gentle and winning
: neither had he ever seen her more
beautiful. With disarming tact, sht
had donned a soft, cream-colored frock
compromise between her own color

snowy banners AS for her antagonist
: the only suggestion of either business
, or defiance about her was In her crisi

after-dinner speaker and the suave clul
ipresident who rises to introduce thu
distinguished guest.

: current topics. and then Rose O'Hari
i very gracefully expressed her contri

desire to make reparation.
Mrs. MacChesney suavely repelle'
