FAST TINE MADE
ON LAKE COOPER
Barge No. s Shows Speed Of sR to
Miles an Hour In This Ideal
Body Of Water
Yesterday.
IS BEST TIME OF TRIP
Boat Passed up Montrose, Fort Madl-
son and Burlington, Much to
disappointment of
Crowds.
IS BEST TIME OF TRIP

The performance Of Barge No. 5
between Quincy and Keokuk and Bur-
lington should settle for a time at
least any doubts as to the benehci al
effects Of the dam at Keokuk on navi'
cation above and below this point.
The barge made faster time between
Hannibal, Quincy and Keokuk than 1t
did on the lower river, and when the
snub nosed craft got into Lake Coop
er yesterday it gave a real speed per-
Torrance, going between eight and
nine miles an hour, double that OF It's
former time performances.
The barge left. Keokuk at apprxio-
mately 1880 yesterday morning. At
1890 it was passing Fort Madison, a
distance OF twenty-four miles in three
hours or eight miles an hour. From
Fort Madison, the run to Burlington
was made In even faster time, Bur-
lington being reached at about 2
o'clock in the afternoon, mailing bet
ter than eight and one-half miles an
hour for this stage of the journey.
Just below Keokuk the barge had
no trouble in keeping up the four and
one-half miles an hour time, accord
ing to her officers. The depth OF
water and entire absence Of current
in the lake is believed to be respon.
sible for the barge's performance.
Keokuk was the only place in this
vicinity that the barge stopped yester
day. She passed Montrose and Fort
Madison in the morning. Why it did
not stop at Fort Madison is not
known, as there is a good landing at
the municipal boat house there. The
pilot megaphoned that they would
stop on the return trip, according to
one of the papers there.
Burlington was also passed up, al
though a reception committee had
been named to meet the barge. The
Hawk-Eye this morning says:
The long expected and much adver.
tised Barge No. 5, Of the Inland
Transportation company, passed Bur.
lington yesterday afternoon shortly
after two o'clock without stopping,
much to the disappointment Of the
big crowd which had gathered on the
levee to welcome her. Some Of those
on the levee suggested that the rea'
son the big barge did not land at Bur
lington was because there was no
place for It on the 1evee on account
Of the lumber RATS and the Black
Hawk and w. w. being in the way
This can hardly be the case, however
| 90 the w w sailed soon after the
barge passed through the bridge, leav
ing plenty Of room at the foot of JEFF
ferson street. The barge did not
slow up at all but kept out in mid
stream and apparently its officers
were not even looking for place to
land. The barge also passed Fort
Madison without stopping.

READY FOR EXTENSION

The new street car ordered by the
Keokuk Electric company last winter
reached here today and will be put IN
service on the depot run at once. me
car was made in ST. Louis and is just
like the other large cars used on the
West K and Main street ines. The
old car that has been in Use on the
depot run will be used in emergencies
only in the future.
No change in schedule will be made
on the Main street line when the NC
Kinley avenue extension has been
completed and cars put in operation
on It, according to Manager J. +.
Ingle. It will not be necessary to
place any additional cars on the run.
The construction of the extension
out Mckinley avenue by the street
car company will be started IN about
two weeks, it is now thought. The
street car company has already order
ed everything necessary for the con-
stzuction Of the extension and most OF
the material is on the ground, ready
to be used
waiting for the city to complete the
necessary grading work before the
tracks are laid. This work being done
by the city has been delayed unex-
pectedly, it being necessary to make
several grades not at first anticipated
It is believed that this work, how
ever, will be completed inside the
next two weeks and the street car
company will start in as soon as the
work Of the city is finished.
The actual construction Of the
tracks will require but very short
time. With practically all the ma
terial on the ground, such as the
rails, ties, etc, it Is not believed that
more than two or three weeks will be
required in the construction Of the
track.
A large number Of houses being
erected in the new additions In this
district are rapidly nearing compile
ton and soon will be ready for occu
pancv. The appearance Of this dis
trict has changed greatly in the last
few months with the grading OF the
new streets, laying OF sidewalks
curbs. construction of houses, and 9th

LAWYERS ENJOYING
BIG PICNIC TODAY
Members Of Keokuk Bar Attack
Fried Chicken and Other Eats
at Wild Cat on Annual
Outing.
EVERYBODY rs PRESENT
Two Supreme Court Justices and
Lawyers From Nearby Towns
Are Guests Of the Lee
County Bar.

Lawyers Offices were closed today,
Blackstone reposed on the shelf, and
even the Offices at the court house
were deserted by their chiefs, only
the deputies being left in charge. The
occasion for this hegira was not the
fear of invasion Of keokuk by the
Servian forces coming up the river,
nor was it the answer of the reser-
visits to the calls to arms. 1t was be-
cause it is the time honored custom
for the Keokuk lawyers and their
guests from Fort Madison, Montrose,
Kahoka, and other near by points to
enjoy themselves at Wild Cat Springs
on their annual outing.
The weather man who was threat
ened with an Injunction If he did not
dish up fair weather saved the sheriff
the work Of serving summons, by Or
dering an extra fine day for the oc-
casion. 1t was voted to donate the
weather man chicken bone in token
of the appreciation of the barristers
| for his kindness. The commissary
wagon went over early this morning
| under guard of Sheriff Crimmins. AS
| the chickens were suspected of hav-
ing met with foul play, Coroner
| Korschgan went over on the next car
and held an inquest at noon. All OF
| the lawyers and their guests served
on the jury, and the verdict was that
! the chickens had met an untimely
| end.
| The lawyers INDUCED in horse shoe
pitching contests, and baseball games.
| some of them even went so far as to
| take bathing suits along in order to
patronize the bathing beach at Cheney
Creek which adjoins the picnic
grounds.
The lawyers had for their guests
brother attorneys from keosauqua,
Kahoka, Fort Madison, Montrose and
other nearby places. Their picnic
was graced by the presence Of two
members of the Iowa supreme bench,
Justice Ladd and Justice Deemer.
| The crowd from Keokuk went over
this morning on the early cars, and
will return this evening after supper.
