Warsaw is almost deserted today
because the major part of her pcpu-
lace decided to patronize the annual
excursion of the Odd Fellows and
went to Burlington on the steamer

ed the gang plank to take the trip with
the Illinois lodge men and their
men and their friends. Alexandria
contributed large party to the
crowded boat and should the weather
prove too warm between this city and
Burlington, the outing will not be as
comfortable as one would at first ex-
pect.
Before the st, Paul reached Keokuk.
Agent G. F. Werner ordered twenty
more gallons of ice cream which will
aid the big excursion party in keep
Ing cool. DR.. T. A. Hartley Of War
saw advanced the boat here and dis
posed of more than 200 tickets to the
keokuk patrons.
The ST. Paul did not pass through
the lock this morning until after
eight o'clock, several OF the govern.
ment boats being in the way and
hating passage to the gates for some
time. 1t was nearly 10 O'Clock when
the steamer returned here with the
Warsaw crowd and the journey struck
as the packet steamed through the
tridge draw going to Burlington.
Unable to get through the lock be
cause of distinctions, the steamer
Black Hawk arrived at the regular
landing place near the foot of John
son street, about 1890 this morning
more than three hours late The
boat continued to Quincy this morn
Ing and the Keokuk went north tc
Burlington.

The French eat many things which
other nations do not care for or eye

the Gallo estimation are small tur

all these that they are hawked pub

frogs being fastened on skewers, in

Electric Lieht For tho Farmhouse.

On an average artificial illumination
Is required not more than four hours
a day in most farm houses. Only two
rooms need to be Illuminated for this
long every day, the kitchen and the
living room. Bedrooms are lighted for
short intervals only and the cellar and
woodshed lights are snapped on for
only q few minutes at time. For the
whole house and for the barn, an
average of three hours per day for
each lamp would seem to be ample.
and five lamps will afford much more
light than now sufflces for all the
purposes of the farmstead If the
householders, then. can rid himself OF
the idea that, II he introduces electric
light at all, he must have clusters or
festoons of flashing bulbs all over his
premises; and IL, in addition. he can
thru cooperation with his neighbors
or otherwise-secure current" at a
loss no greater than that at which 1t
is supplied in most American towns.
then the electric light would seem
to be within his reach at compara-
lively small expense. Where no power
plant or storage battery is to be in

~ Sh'SSS Va ohibS, tiic ttSi III
is so small as to be within the means
OF almost any householder.
Recent tests at the Colorado expert
ment station. with current furnished
by the electric light company of Fort
Collins. at a charge of IS cents per
kilowatt hour, showed the cost OF
burning a 20candle power Mazda lamp
for 1000 hours to be $3.50. This in
cludes the cost OF the lamp itself, the
life Of which averages 1000 hours. The
cost Of burning a single lamp for a
year, hours per day. is thus seen to
be only s4.16, or a little more than a
cent a day It is to be noted that the
lamps used in the Colorado expert
ments were of 20-candle power. Five
lamps will cost $20.S0 year
Few improvements in the home are
attended with so much satisfaction as
that which comes from the substitu-
ton OF the brilliant and convenient
electric light for the kerosene lamp.
In the barn the safety and convenience
Of the electric bulb, as compared with
the old-t time lantern wins instantan-
eous appreciation. So great are its
advantages that many WELL to do
farmers have, at cost of several hun
dred dollars, installed a plant for the
production of the needed current for
their individual use alone, and now re-
gard the light as indispensable.
