OTTUMWA WANTS TO
DAM THE RIVER
Asks Assistance Of Senator Cummins
in Getting Permission to Dam
the Des McInes.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March rs
Senator Cummins yesterday had an
audience with Secretary Of War Gar
rison at the instance OF former State
Senator Moon. Mr.. Moon has been
here for several days trying to get
the Ottumwa dam tangle Strengthened
out. This is the case arising from
the fact that the war department
holds the Des Moines river navigabls
and Ottumwa in connection with her
new water works, projects new dam
across the river. But the river, being
navigable, cannot be damned with
out act of congress and without
locks, unless the war department.
should find some way to make an eW-
ception in its case. Senator Cufhmins
made an argument to Secretary Gar
rison in behalf of Ottumwa and a
ruling will be made in a day or two.

EstIy Today.

The residence of Joe Miller, e and

The damage was estimated at $3.50,
no part of it being insured. The fire
occurred at about $40 this morning.
According to Miller, his wife woke up
at that time and discovered the house
in famss. The building was a small
one story frame house. The fire had
gained such a start before being dis

knows that unless the kidneys are do
ing their work properly the other or.
gans cannot readily be brought back
to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused In any way, serious results
are sure to follow. According to
health statistics, Bright's disease
which is really an advanced form OF
kidney trouble, caused nearly ten
thousand deaths in 1919, in the state
of New York alone. Therefore, it be.
hooves us to pay more attention to the
health of these most important or.

In the matter of the schedules be-

Dr.. Hughes Makes Address.

DR.. A. B. Hughes who was the prin-
cipal speaker of the meeting, was
not able to come until 4 o'clock, and
so all the social features of the
meeting were dispatched in advance
of his coming in order that he might
have the full time for his address on
Social Hygiene. DR.. Hughes spoke in
IA very frank straight forward way OF
the dangers which threaten children
and young people, not only in moral
way but physically.
He told number Of instances OF
alarming conditions which had come
under his own personal observation.
He said that children should receive
answers to the questions which they
ask and not have evasive replies. All
teaching should be scientific and
truthful.
DR.. Hughes did not make a definite
statement as to just who should do
the teaching, the mother or the
teacher, but he said il should be
given by a pure minded person hav-
ing ideals, rather than to be impaired
in an alley.

IDEA is TALKED OVER

At the meeting Of the retail trade
committee of the Industrial associa-
| ton of which M. E.. Justice is chair
man, this morning. plans were launch
| ed for the formation of an association
of merchants to include every mer-
chant in the city. This organization
which was proposed, will in no way ef-
feet the present Retail Merchants Re-
funding association. It will include
all of the merchants, big and little, on
Main street or any other street of the
city.
At a meeting at the Elks club about
a year ago all Of the merchants got
together, and at that time the idea
was pronounced good one. For
some reason 1t has been let drop, but
the retail trade committee is now
starting the proposition to revive this
plan and to make it go. If possible,
Other cities have retail merchants
associations in which practically ev-
cry merchant joins. These associa-
tons are powers in communities, when
it comes to the matter of clean streets,
adequate lighting, light rates, and the
like. They are the backbone of the
booster excursions, and they really
are In position to help the town they
represent as we'll as themselves.
Could Have Big Association.
If every merchant in Keokuk would
join some such association it. is a
fact that strong organization could
be formed. While the proposition was
not brought to focus this morning,
there is no doubt but that such an as
sociation can be formed here, which
vii lbe Of immense benefit to the town
and to the merchants themselves.
The retail trade committee, also
considered the matter of schedules on
the Wabash railroad between Keokuk
and Carthage, and also the petition of
the Salem people for another train on
the North road.

Because the wireless operator aboard

OF the latter by the British cruiser

World tells the story:
Confirmation of the capture of tha
German tank steamship LedA. Cap
tain henz was given in this port yes
terday by officers of ships just arrived.
The capture OF the Leda, IL is said,
was due to the enthusiasm Of q wire
less operator. The Leda was 100
miles from Bermuda when the opera
tor flashed: 'Ts there any one about?''
Who are you? What Is your posi-
tion?' came back through space.
The obliging operator on the Leda
promptly gave all the information
asked. Three hours later the cruiser
Suffolk, steamed up and made the
German a prisoner taking her into
dock yards at Grassy Bay, Bermuda.
The members OF the crew were made
prisoners OF war on Darrelrs Island
