son last Thursday had her purse grab
bed at the depot, and suspicion rested
on colored woman. The purse was
not recovered, and the colored woman
was kited out Of town. 1t Is said the
colored woman was accompanied by
a large negro man, and that the pair
have been conducting house of i'll
fame in Fort Madison. A Fort Madi-

landed there from Keokuk by the tie

Quincy Herald; I'm the past ter
days four steamboats,, two Of them
packets and the other two excursion
boats, were stuck on the reef near
Montrose. Twelve days ago the
steamer Quincy was aground on the
reef for 20 hours. shortly after the
w. w. grounded about the same
place and was fast for day and a
half, then on July 4th the G. W. Hill
got stuck on the same reef for "a
hours and Sunday the Quincy for a
second time was stuck there from
Sunday until Tuesday, according to
reports received here. 1t seems that
in the time that has elapsed since the
first time the Quincy hit the reef,
the government river engineers at
Keokuk should have located and re.
moved the obstruction, either by
dredging or blasting. Possibly they
may attend to it now that the Streck-
fus company has taken UP the matter
asking that something be done imme'
diately to remedy the evil"
