A YEARS GROWTH
OF THE CHAUTAUQUA MOVE.
MENT IS MARVELLOUS.
Seven Hundred More Tent Chau.
tauquas Than Last Year,
twenty-five Hundred In ALI.

The past years growth Of the Chau-
tauQua movement in the United States
has been little less than marvellous
The number of tent Chautauquas in
this country has increased from l,5OO
last year to more than 2,200 this sum-
mer. One thousand of these Chautau-
quas are under Redpath management.
There are about 800 more Redpath
Chautauquas this year than last.
Never before in a year has such wide
publicity been given the name Chau-
tauqua in the press Of the country
This in part, of course, was due to the
wide discussion Of Mr.. Bryan's appear
ances on the Chautauqua platform last
summer
The army of people now employed In
all the different features of Chautau-
qua work over the wide expanse Of the
American continent also serves TO en-
phasize the movements Importance.
The principal reason for this remark
able development may be attributed to
the fact that ChautauQuas are the eA4Tf

NEED OF MORE MARINES.
Difficulty In Getting Men Enough For
Demands Made on Corps.

With five full regiments Of marines
now on expeditionary work, in addi-
ton to the many men Of the same serv-
ice scattered throughout the Philip
pines and Guam and elsewhere, the
marine CORPS is having difficulty in
meeting the demands made upon it for
an army TO carry out the policies Of the
administration in regard to Haiti and
Santo Domingo.
In addition TO the shortage Of enlist
ed men the marine corps is at present
reported to be greatly underoff1cered-
in fact. with less than half the num-
ber Of officers TO a regiment that the
regular army demands. Consequently
the officers are doing double duty and
have been for the most part without
adequate leave for Ave years past.

PAST MONTH POOR
ONE FOR WEDDINGS
RECORDS IN THE CLERKS OFFICE
SHOW THAT MARRIAGE L.
cENsES WERE FEW.

BY the records in the Office Of the
clerk of the district court, 1t would
seem that August is poor month for
weddings. This office. which is the Of
fetal dispensary for licenses. it not get.

this way during the last summer
month of each season. June of course
is the banner busy season for the Of
fee that handles the marriage licenses
and this month and next generally
show up pretty we'll in the average too
but July and August are slow ones
along this line.
There was a total of thirty-four Ii
censes issued during last month and
these were fairly evenly divided
throughout the thirty-one days. The
longest time between the applicants
was three days August 8 to II. Three
different times, August s, 20 and rs
there were four couples apparently
made happy. On the eighth Of the
month three applied for and were
granted licenses and two came to the
Office for the same purpose on the
fourth, thirteenth, fifteenth, twenty

There were just two times during the
month that both the prospective bride
and groom were under age. These
were on the fourth when they were
seventeen and nineteen and on the
thirty-first when they were of the same
age as the first couple. Once the groom
was twenty and the girl the same age

70 while his bride was "only" so and

MUST NOT STAND
NEAR MOVING CARS
FLAGMEN RECEIVE iNSTRUC-
TIONS TO WARN PEOPLE
AGAINST DANGER.

Flagmen along the Burlington lines
Ottumwa division, are receiving in
structions from the Office of J. P. Cum
mings, superintendent here, in regard
to warning the public about standing
too close to the trains at crossings. The
Burlington Hawk-Eye of this morning S
issue has the following about the men
at that place receiving their instruc'
tons:
All the flagmen in Burlington yes,
terday received letters from J. P. Cum
mings, superintendent of the Ottumwa
division, saying that the attention OF
the safety committee has been called
to the fact that the public in general
stand too close to the tracks at cross
ings in the face Of approaching trains.
This is very dangerous condition,
for the people are placing themselves
in a position where personal injuries
may result through various causes.
The attention of the flagmen is called
to this matter and they are requested
to continue to make special efforts to
keep the people as far back as possible
from the track crossings.
If the flagmen know of any certain
person who is in the habit Of driving
with an automobile, horse and buggy.
a team, or walking too close to the
tracks, and who do not heed the flag
mems warnings, they are asked to fur.
nish Mr.. Cummings Office with the
name and address of such person and
the matter will be brought to his at
tention by letter. The company wants
to educate the public to keep at all
times, a safe distance from moving
trains at all public crossings.

National Political NelDs

Washington, d. c., Sept. AT least
ten Of the eleven Iowa congressional
districts will elect republicans in No
vember according to Frank p. Woods
of Estherville, Iowa, chairman OF the
republican congressional campaign
committee. The only district set down
as doubtful is the second, in which Nc.
Donald, the democratic candidate is
conceded q chance to defeat Hull, the
republican. Chairman Woods Is by no
means ready to concede this district
to the democrats but he believes that
conditions are not SO favorable that he
would be warranted in making an iron
clad claim for the district
Iowa is represented in the house at
present by eight republicans and three
democrats, the latter being Vollmer OF
the second; Connolly Of the third, and
Kirkpatrick Of the sixth. None of these
is a candidate for reelection, Vollmer
having retired Voluntarily while Kirk
patrick was defeated for the nomina-
ton last June and Connolly has cast
his hat into the ring for the toga now
worn by Senator Cummins. Seven OF
the eight republicans are candidates
for reelection. S. f. Prouty of the
seventh district declined renomina-
ton and has entered the race for one
Of the vacancies on the supreme bench
Of Iowa.
Not only do republicans claim the re-
election OF the seven g. 0. P. congress
men who are candidates, but they ex-
press confidence that vollmer, Connol-
" and Kirkpatrick, will also be sue
ceeded, by republicans. G. G. Dowell Is
the republican candidate in the sew
enth district which has always been
safely republican. Congressman Con-
molly was the first democrat to be
elected from the third district which
went republican by $3.50 in 1910 and
5000 In 1912. Connolly was elected be-
cause Of his great strength in Dubuque,
to which he also owes his victory over
Meredith in the primary election last
spring. The democratic candidate this
year In the third district Is James Muir
laugh Of Waterloo. Since he will not
poll nearly as strongly In Dubuque as
did Connolly there is little doubt but
what Burton e. Sweet, tho republican
nominee, will be elected
C. W. Ramseyer Of Bloomfield, re-
publican, will be elected in the Second
district over w. H. Hamilton, democrat
according to members of the Iowa dele
cation in congress. Mr.. Ramseyer is
without a political record but Is max
ing great campaign. He Is expected
to restore the district to the republican
column, where It had stood for years
before Congressman Kirkpatrick's un-
Avoan&a6 victorv in 1912
CONGRESSMAN Vollmer came back
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1914-09-03

from Iowa last week with words of en-
couragement for the friends of Maurice
Connolly.
Mr.. Vollmer has accompanied the
democratic candidate for senator tt
several public gatherings and says
that Connolly makes friends where
ever he goes. He is holding up his
reputation as good mixer" according
to Mr.. Vollmer. #n
Senator Cummins still sticks to his
intention of leaving Washington soon
after September Is. He betrays no
alarm at the reports of progress made
by his opponent and has left his cam
paign up to the present time to the
managers of the headquarters in Des
Moines.
Republican congressman are ex.
pressing much dissatisfaction with the
step taken by the majority in ordering
the enforcement of the salary docking
rule for absentees. The primaries of
the southern states, which decide in
the south what elections do in the
north, are now over, so that southern
members who have been absent for
weeks can now return to Washington
without sacrifice to their political
fences. Many of the republicans and
northern democrats are anxious to do
a little campaigning but they will now
be held in Washington unless willing
to give up $20.54 day in salary.
Minority Leader Mann read into the
congressional record the other day an
instance of how members abuse the
privilege of absenting themselves on
account of illness. He said:
yesterday the house granted leave
OF absence to one of our distinguished
colleagues, Mr.. Dickinson, Of Missouri,
think very properly, and our disting-
uished speaker stated that Mr.. Dick
inson was sick in bed, and the gentle
man from Missouri Mr.. Hamlin, also
stated that he was sick in bed. l simp-
ly wish to congratulate Mr.. Dickinson
upon his early recovery. The St. Louis
paper states that he Is attending the
democratic convention at Jefferson
City, Mo-. and at the time the paper
went to press was in consideration for
chairman Of that convention. l am
glad to know Of his speedy recovery.
The effect of the new salary ruling
is phenomenal Fifty absentees arrived
on the day following the passage OF
the resolution and on the next day
fifty more. streamed in from all parts
Of the country. Representative Will
liam N. Blatz, of Illinois, who was cam
paigning in Maine, Is said to have been
on the platform ready to make a
speech when handed telegram no
tifying him of the action Of the house.
He left the hall Immediately taking the
1ext train for Washington.

CONTINUE WORK ON
WAR REVENUE BILL

Washington. D. c., Sept. 2.-House
ways and means committee men today
continued work on the proposed spec
ial Internal revenue bill to meet
customs duty losses caused by the
war in Europe. They hope to have it
ready for submission Immediately
after the president addresses congress
on the subject late this week. The
committeeman contemplate imposing
a special tax on soft drinks, beer and
patent medicines, and it has been sug-
gested that levy Of or 10 per cent
be placed on railway tickets and
tickets Of admission to theaters, ball
parks and other licensed amusement
places. More than $5O,O00,O0O it was
estimated, could be raised by the
ticket tax, while doubling of the levy
on beer would bring in $65,0O0,0OO
more.

EXPLORER OFF ON
DASH A0RTHWARD
sTEFFANssoN AND TWO coMPAN'
IONS EXPECT TO STAY TWO
YEARS ON TRIP.

Nome, Alaska, Sept. 2The gasoline
schooner, King and Winge which has
arrived here from Point Barrow, Alas
ka brought news that Vilhjalmur Steff-
ansson, the Canadian explorer, with
two companions, set out from Martin
Point, east Of the mouth of the Barter
river, March % last with six dogs, a
sled, two rifles and plenty of ammuni-
ton. heading straight north over the
ice in search of new land. A sup
porting party of three others accom-
panied Steffansson sixteen days due
north on the sea ice and reached the
shore April g. Steffansson may not be
heard from for two years, his asso-
ciates say.
The King and Winge boat brought
out the crew Of the sailors from the
whaler Elvira which was crushed by
the arctic ice nearly year ago. The
shipwrecked party included w. G. AL
lis, president of the Arctic Whaling
Trading Co.

London, Sept. IA st. Petersburgh
dispatch to the Reuter- Telegram Co.
reports that surviving members of the
Arctic expedition headed by Lieut.. Sc
doff, which left for the north In 1912
have arrived at Archangel.
The survivors stated that Lieut.. Sc
doff died in vain attempt to reach
the north pole. The expedition winter
ed in 1912 and 1913 in newly discover
ed territory and later Sedoff proceed
ed to Franz Josef land whence he
started for the pole accompanied by
two sailors. The leader fell Ill on the
way and died. The Russian govern.
ment sent an expedition to the relief
Of Lieut.. Sedob early in 1914 and 1t is
probable that this expedition effected
the rescue Of the explorer.
According to Lieut.. Sedoff's plans
the expedition on reaching Franz Josef
land was to divide itself in two parts
at the beginning Of 1913. The polar
party, consisting Of the lieutenant and
two companions was to make dash
for the pole while the other members
remained at winter quarters to carry
on scientific work.
The first subscription to defray the
given by Emperor Nicholas
expenses of the expedition was $4,000
Lieut. Sedoff has been credited with
draw his sledges.
