The Nauvoo Rustler quotes an
article from The Gate City with the
following comment: Fl Madison Is
trying to make an arrangement where
by that city and Nauvoo can be joined
during the summer with ferry SER
vice. Keokuk should have bett.sr
boat service to Nauvoo and ferry
plying between Keokuk and Hamilton
would be valuable to the business
men of this city.-Keokuk Gate City. |

Fort Madison will remodel her
high school. The Democrat says: Al |
though the more definite plan in the
reconstruction OF the Fort Madison
high school building has not as yet
been arranged. still, advfces were CIV
en- out today as to the extent OF the
work that will be done in the pro- !
posed extensive remodeling Of the |
building. According to the plans now
being considered by the board OF edn- |
cation. the structure will be com
pletely re.nodelled. 1t has been found |
that the walls of the building have |
become weakened through the strain
of holding UP the heavy roof OF the |
structure for years. That they will
all have to be strengthened, Ia the i
general opinion.

Several parties here have received |
letters Of inquiry lately concernins
the starting OF a grape Juice factory
in Nauvoo, says the Rustler. They 1
have asked for certain information, 4
and say they have the parties with I
the necessary capital to put it In. If i
Nauvoo proves a suitable location, and 4
no one doubts that it is. One Of the
inquirers is large trunk Mne rail
road, which says that 1t has parties
who are ready to put in plant at
Nauvoo, and would have some one
here shortly to look into the matter.
A Keokuk wholesale grocery concern
is also making inquiries as to start
ing grape juice factory at Nauvoo.
It looks like something might come
from all this talk, doesn't it?
