CANNOT SHOW CHIEF
KEOKUK PATHE FILMS
Plates Of Pictures Taken at ceIebra,
tlon Here Spoiled, Says Editor
In a Letter.

A letter received today from the
editor of Pathe Freres, New York,
brings the news that the moving pic
ture film made for Pathe Weekly of
the unveiling of the Chief Keokuk
statue were spoiled by static. and can
not be used.
Static means that In cold, dry
weather the friction of the unrolling
negative film running over the inter
Tor parts of the camera generates
slight electric currents These while
not large enough to measure are suffl-
cient to affect the Aim and cover 1t
with streaks like flashes of lightning.
There will be much disappointment
here at this news. as Keokuk people
expected the world to see their fine
statue through the Pathe Weekly and
thousands of former residents were
watching for the pictures all over the
country.

Hamilton, ILL.,, Oct. 80

The city council Of Hamilton met
In adjourned session yesterday even
Ing to consider the matter of accept
ing or rejecting the bids on file for the
city hall property
All OF the members OF the council
were present and took active part in
discussion of the matter. Most of
them expressed themselves as feeling
that it was hardly the time to let
loose of the best piece of business
property In town, especially at any Of
the prices offered. Others of the coun-
ell seemed willing to dispose Of this
property and the city build on another
lot owned by the city d distance Of
block and half farther up the
street.
Prior to any discussion the motion
was made that the city reject any and
all bids submitted. After the greater
part of an hour spent in considering
end discussing the matter, the vote
was taken, and even though there
we're those that felt it much better to
sell, they also felt that the council
should be unit in this matter and
realizing that a majority were in ia
yor of not accepting any bid, when
the vote was taken, It was unanimous
in favor of rejecting all the bids.
There was strong sentiment ex
Pressed that there should be an UP te
date building upon this, the best bust
ness corner in the town, and it might
