Current Was Being Sent From the
Power Station on Shore, How

Made.
THREE DAYS FOR CHANGE

Only Ceiling Fans
Exempted.

Current passed through the con-
Meeting lines Of the Keokuk Electric
company and the big power house
yesterday but the current did not
come from the big turbines. The cur
rent was coming from the power sta
ton of the Keokuk Electric company
to test the connections between the
lines and the power house.
The current was run through the
sub-station and everything was found
to be in condition for the change
which will give Keokuk the first pow
er from the big dam. 1t is probable
now that the current from the big
power house turbines will not be
switched on before Sunday. The exact
time depends upon the head of the
water that is secured.
1t will take three days to make the
change over One day for the north
residence circuit, one for the south
residence circuit of the city and one
for the power circuit

fell in a beautiful amplitude, the rare

The Indians could hardly grasp the
idea at first Of how they could sing
into tin horn and thereby record
their music. After the first song had
been sung, however, the reproduction

music Of all American Indians, be-
gan his work in New York City last
week by taking his first Photographic
records of the songs Of the Blackfeet
Indians from Glacier National Park,
Montana. Secretary of the Interior
Lane took advantage of the presence
Of the Blackfeet Indians in New York,
where they came to attend the Travel
and Vacation show as guests of Louis
W. Hill, chairman Of the Board Of
Directors of Great Northern Railway.
He sent Mr. 0'Hara on to New York,
from Washington, to begin his labori-
GUS task with these Indians. During
the stay of the red men in New York,
Mr.. O'Hara had them sing into
monographs and the records will be
sent on to Washington to be put In
the government archives, therefore
preserving for all time the music of
the original Americans, who are rap

a call from Joseph Parks, foreman of
a boiler works plant on the water front,
to come and help him take out Of the
water the body of an old bald headed
man that was floating in Elliott Bay,
Motorcycle Officer Fuqua helped land
a big octopus. They jumped into the
nearest boat and pulled out into the
bay, where an object which appeared to
be the head of man was floating.
Fuqua and the octopus got hold of each
other at about the same time, but as
the octopus had tentacles only five feet
long land weighed less than 80 pounds,
it lost the contest. Fuqua, however,
says his skin still feels creepy, and
that from now on he will view floating
"bald heads" with suspicion.
