Marrow Escape.

The wireless operator on the Car
patflia, told us during the evening that
he had closed his instruments Sunday
night and had intended to go to bed
when something came over him, tell
ing him to open it UP again. The min
ute he did, he gathered in the cry for
help with which the Titanic was rend-
ing the air, and of course, the Carpa-
thia began her rush to our side.
And she made that sixty intervening
| miles, her captain told me with his
own lips, in faster time than she
made on her speed-breaking voyage
and through the ice fields too.
"And it is a great wonder to me, =
Captain Rostron said, that we our
selves didn't strike one of them-tne
most treacherous, the deadly enemies
of these who go down to the sea in
ships"

But now 1t is different The cam,

bright light; Illuminating the homes

earnestly and faithfully to bring abou.
the desired end. The building is In
sight, and it is predicted that the first
dirt will be thrown within month.
1 The desired amount will not have
been realized in this whirlwind CAM
paign closing at o'clock this evening.
And really it was not expected, 1t Is
believed, by the most enthusiastic and
sanguine supporter of the enterprise,
and there are no Cropping spirits be-
cause the full amount desired as mark
ed on the dial of the clock was not
reached.
Today was the crucial point, the
day on which the whirlwind was ex,
pected to be whirling most strenuous,
ly. Many usually liberal contributors
held back their cards until today de-
batting in their minds as to the
amounts they could afford to subscribe
TO the fund. These cards will be turn
ed in to the solicitors today and will
go far toward swelling the total
amount.
The sum total tonight will probably
reach $4,000, possibly little less and
probably more. With this sum as Q
nucleus about which to gather a tota
OF $4,000, Or even 100000, seems 9
much easier matter than to gather in
S25 200 in a flve-day whirlwind cam
Ipaign by solicitors, many of whom
were unskilled in canvassing for an
enterprise of equal magnitude. 1t is
not the Keokuk way to turn back OF
even halt when so near the coveted
goal. The people will go right along
probably without continuing longer
this spirited campaign, but in quiet
determined, business way.
The whirlwind campaign has ac
compished it's object. it is a great
success. even before it is ended, and
all honor Is due to those who planned
or took active part in bringing abou,
the happy result.

When we decided to open up first
class shoe store in Keokuk we figured inn
mediately that the key note Of our success
would be values. We determined to give
better values than any other merchant in
this city.
When we considered the cost of doing
business in the old established shopping
district, we realized that we could effect
a tremendous saving for the people of this
city if we moved just outside of the high
rent district. s.ss
Our handsome new store at Ills Main
st. is within FIVE mintes walk of the shop
ping district and the lower cost of doing
business in this location enables us to save
you $1.00 on every $500 worth of shoes
you buy.

An Appreciation,

The following appreciation of the
reading given, Monday evening, at the
Episcopal Parish House by Miss
Eleanor Danforth of Gardiner, men
ton of which has already been made
in the Journal, is contributed by one
who had the pleasure of hearing it
and undoubtedly voices the opinion of
all of those present:
The reading given by Miss Eleanor
Danforth of Gardiner in the Parish
house, Monday evening, for the bene-
mt OF the Armitage Club, deserves
more than passing notice. Miss
Danforth, who is pupil of Mrs.
Frederic G. Briggs, has. for the past
year, read successfully in various
parts Of the State and in Boston, but
not before in this city. Her program
included several childrens selections
