Three Days Does Not Effect
Transmission Seriously.

The severe electrical storm that
passed over the city Saturday night
,loept the men in the big electricity
generating plant at Keokuk and the
local light and power company's sub
station at Fort Madison on the alert
for several hours.
According to the FIT. Madison Demo
crat, A. 8. Nichols, the manager OF
the Fort Madison Electric company,
when interviewed concerning the
effects Of the storm said: "Keokuk re-
ported early in the evening that the
lightning arestors on the big power
plant we're working overtime and
that the storm apparently was gem
eral. The electrical discharges over
this city and our transmission line
were unusually severe. The lines
were struck a number Of times and
our instruments at the station record

1900 volt switch but the efaciency
OF the power company's methods for
meeting such emergencies and the
promptness OF our own operators was
responsible for the restoration Of the
service Immediately.

approved system of lightning protec-
ton In the big plant of the Missis-
sippi River Power company at Keo-
kuk and along the transmission line.
NO money has been spared to pro-
test the lines against the severe
storms that prevail in the valley.
"Our own equipment was equal to
the test as was proven Saturday night
and early this morning"

the story in apparent sincerity, but
how many he convinced Of Its truth
remains an unsolved mystery even
now, after he is dead. There are
many just as unbelievable stories told
in reference to the present Mexican
unpleasantness, concerning which
stories, many people are watching
and waiting for solution, or veri-

But Jerusalem is in the hands of the

eyes. But though Turkey now possesses
them, and others want them, it is never
theless thought necessary to the tranquil
ity Of Europe that Turkey should be main
tanned in her position, in order to pre-
serve what is called the "balance Of

of Europe have cooperated to sustain the

Note that kings, great men, rich men,

hide themselves in the dens and in the

cry for the rocks and mountains to fall

of Him Who sitteth on the throne, and
from the wrath of the Lamb; and will
make the declaration: for the great day

Please note that when the sixth angel
poured out his vial upon the great River
Euphrates, that the water thereof was
dried up, that the way of the kings Of the
east might be prepared.
There are two theories as to what is
meant here by the drying up of the River
Euphrates: one is that it refers to the dry
ing up Of the literal River Euphrates, in
Asia; and the other is that it is symbol of
the nation occupying the territory through
which the River Euphrates flows. Person
ally, we accept the latter theory, and be-
lieve that there are some strong arguments
in support of it.
You will observe that the declaration is
made that the drying up of the River
Euphrates takes place as preparation for
the kings Of the east.

SMALLPOX

Smallpox, or Variola (varus, "a pim-
ple') an acute infectious disease charac-
terized by fever and by the appearance on
the surface of the body of an eruption,
which, after passing through various
stages, dries up, leaving more or less dis
tinct cicatrices.
Much obscurity surrounds the early his
tory of smallpox. It appears to have been
imported into Europe from Asia where it
had been known and recognized from re-
mote antiquity
The earliest accounts of its existence
reach back to the middle and end Of the
9th Century, when it was described by
.Procopius and Gregory of Tours, as oc-
curing in epidemic form in Arabia, Egypt,
and the south of Europe
Smallpox was known in England as
early as the 18th Century, and had proba-
bly, existed there before It appears to
have been introduced into America shortly
after the discovery Of that Continent.
