Nauvoo Independent Wants All
Roads Possible to Entsr Old
Mormon Town.

Nauvoo Independent: G. H. Petsch,
Of st. Paul, MINI, and G. s. Payne,
OF Fort Madison. were in the city =
short time Monday. Mr.. Petsch n
formed several Of our citizens that ne
means business and Is going to build
his entire line as promised. They now
have nearly $4,000 in stock sold. Mr..
Petsch also said 1t was still his de-
sire to get into Nauvoo and that he
would get here before any other line.
While his line would come in here on
"Y" it would in realty not be a
stub as the through cars would come
in here and here the main office
would be located. OF course all this
would be contingent OF Nauvoo peo-
pie showing their interest by taking
a certain amount of stock. Mr..
Petsch is not paying any attention to
the knockers on his proposition, as
their childish whimperings are really
a help to his cause. There are no
"ignoramuses in Nauvoo asitating
railroad five miles east Of Nauvoo;
the people here who are not knockers
are hoping that Mr.. Petsch will come
to Nauvoo We want line, let 1t
come from where it may. The man
who knocks clearly shows his ignor-
ance, as there is no sense In doing so.

owners in and adjacent to Nauvoo.
We understand that, owing to this
fact, Mr.. Marsh has concluded to
change the route of his proposed rail-
road and will "cut of" Nauvoo en-
tirely. He will take a route straight
north from Hamilton, going through
Powellton. He put two gangs OF sur
veyors at work Monday morning sur
yeying the new route.
We are sorry to see that 'Mr. Marsh
has come to this conclusion. His new
routs will shorten his line consider
ably and It can be built q great deal
cheaper. We hope that things can
yet be Strengthened out SO that 1t will
be possible for Nauvoo to get this
railroad.
A committee Of influential citizyns
expect to go to Warsaw today to con-
suit with Mr.. Marsh about the situa-
ton and to offer their assistance In
getting the right Of way. MT. Marsh
yesterday stated over the phone that
h, would be glad to get their help
that 1t is not too late yet-but that
they would have to act quickly.

IMPROVEMENT SHOWN
IN MEMS CONDITION
Two Injured In Accident Which
Killed w. M. Johnson, Are
Some Better.

The condition of the two men who
were injured in the accident in which
w. NJ Johnson was killed, shows n
decided Improvement according to
the following from the Ottumwa
Courier:
Fred Cummings and Joe Romines,
both of Keota, who we're injured IN
the automobile accident on West
Main street Tuesday afternoon, in
which w. M Johnson Of Washington
was killed, are showing great Inn
provement today. The men were re-
moved to st. Joseph's hospital imme-
diately after the accident ana hava
been under the constant care OF ply
sicians ever since. Mr.. Cummings,
who is the most severely injured OF
the two, had a very fair night Tues
day and is resting comparatively
comfortably today. He has several
ribs broken and is severely bruised
about the head and body. Mr..
Romines, whose injuries are princi-
pally confined to bruises and cuts, Is
feeling very we'll considering the ma
ture of the trouble he sustained.
The remains OF Mr.. Johnson, who
died at the Ottumwa hospital about
half an hour after TIE accident oc-
Cured, were taken to Belfast this
morning over the Rock Islana &C
companied by his two daughters, son
and several friends from this city.
Mr.. johnson was born In Lee county
near Belfast, sixty-four years ago and
spent his entire boyhood and young
manhood in that place. The funeral
services will be held from the old
homestead Thursday morning at 10
o'clock and burial will be made IN the

MAKING OF TIDAL
WAVES TO ORDER
/
lob Has Been Accomplished by Gov
eminent Engineers Who Wish
to Note Effect Of Dam
on River.
SHOWS IT NEGLIGIBLE
Results Prove That River Below Is
Not Effected for Good or
Bad by the Big
Monolith.

Making and playing with tidal
waves six feet high, as easily as a
boy makes soap bubbles, is the
achievement OF the United States
army engineers here recently. The
result is series of diagrams OF the
effects OF such waves In the Missis
s.ppi river and the distances they
travel before nattening out and dis.
appearing.
Great pains was taken in this ex-
perimental work on waves. The lab
oratory apparatus included the great
est river In this country. the greatest
cam In the world, and q numbsr OF
recording instruments Of precision
placed at intervals for fifty miles be-
low this city. Considerable time was
spent in preparation for the expai-
ment. It was made possible by the
peculiar design Of the Keokuk dam
which consists Of 119 spans each with
a steel gate controlling the water.
When everything was ready, num-
Der Of these gates were suddenly
opened and large quantity of water
was spilled over the dam. Bodies of
water making waves from two to six
feet high and of wide base were
thrown over the dam at intervals.
Precise measurements by the record
ing instruments down river showed
exactly the effect at Zach point below.
Due chiefly to the size, current and
natural fall OF the Mississippi river,
1t was found that the largest waves
disappeared and coal sced with the
normal river at point about forty
miles below Keokuk.
The smaller waves disappeared
much nearer the dam. and It was
