conducted by Miss Florence N. Feet.
under the auspices OF The Gate CITY,
proved to be . wonderful success. The
banquet room Of the Masonic temple
was crowded. and there were some
who were unable to get In. because the
capacity Of the room was taxed to It's
utmost. Everyone seemed more than
pleased with the demonstrations con-
Quoted by Miss Peet
"a glance at the audience confirmed
the statement that It was representa-
tive. Not only were the women who
do their own cooking present, but
women who have maids to assist them
were there and seemed as interested
in Miss Poets work as those who do
their own work. Some OF the brides
and young matrons Of Keokuk were
In attendance and many OF the young
women displayed q ter1-tale ring on
the left hand third finger. giving evil
dence that they were going to heed
the old adage about the way to mans
heart.
Miss Peet has had experience not
only in America but in European coun-
tries in the last twelve years. and is
graduate Of the Drexel University at
Philadelphia. She was considered pre-
eninently the one for the place. She
was chosen for her ability in this work

SADNESS CAUSED BY. MDONOUGH' DEATH
Victim of Yesterdays Wreck One of City's Best Known
 Railroad Men

The death of NJ. J. McDonough on the Alabama Great Southern wreck yester- day morning caused intense sorrow in local railroad circles.
 Mr. McDonough was with the Frisco lines in the freight traffic department. He was a brother. of D. F. McDonoush, division freight agent for the Frisco lines.
 Mr. McDonough was for some years assistant general freight agent for the Seaboard Air Line He resigned that posi- ton about two years ago to enter an other line of work, but the call of the rail road caused him to enter the services of the Frisco under his brother several road managers throughout the south as one of their best informed men on the intricate traffic question.
 Mr. McDonough Is survived by Mrs. Me Donough, who was before her marriage Miss Clara Denghe of Augusta, Ga., and by three children. The eldest is Miss Helen, aged 1s. daughter of former marriage; Joseph, aged years and Clara, the youngest daughter, aged 7 years He is also survived by his father, ]. H. McDonough, of Augusta, Ga.; Dan McDonough, a brother. and by A. J. Me Donough of the Louisville and Nashville. a nephew.
 The remains of MT. McDonough will reach the city this morning on the Ala bama Great Southern No. 2, when funeral arrangements will be announced.
 From a statement of Robert Jemison, Sr., who gave MT. McDonough all possibl Q. aid at the wreck, his injuries were ot such a nature as to offer no hope for recovery As MT. Jemison relates in an- other part of The Age-Herald, MT. Me Ddnough was severely crushed and pr. Brockaway, who attended him, held out no hope after a short examinations
 MT. McDonough was of an exceedingly happy disposition and made friends easily, all of whom held fast to him. His death in this wreck will cause extreme sadness on the part of many friends in this city.
 In industrial and railroad circles few men were better known.

MARKE[LS ARE BACK | AZ TER TRYING TRIP Birmingham Tourists Were Caught in Germany at Out
 break of HOstilities

c. F. Markell returned to Birmingham yesterday after leisurely trip from New York in striking contrast to his experi- eEces in Europe during the past week. MT. and Mrs. Markell reached New York last Saturday from England returning safely with all the members of the party they had taken abroad.
 ''I was caught in Germany at the out break of war" said MT. Markell. land I hope never to go through another such experience Our party had separated and Mrs. Markell was in charge of the other division. My greatest worry was about her because for three weeks l could not get into communication with her.
 After being arrested several times on charges of being spy finally was able to join her in England. We spent week at the home of friends near Ely and in that way recuperated from the trying experiences.
 The present war undoubtedly came like a thunderclap to the masses of the German people and its duration de- bends entirely on the Kaiser It looks as though he will have to make trenen- dous sacrifices whether he sues for peace or decides to fight on to the end.
 Birmingham always looks good to me. but believe 1t has never looked so att tractive as upon my return this time"
