Journey.
STARTED ON JULY 9Th

S. W. Schepper and Clarence Bond,
two daring canoeists, who are on their
way to New Orleans, were in Keokuk
today and visited the Young Mems
Christian association. They will leave
here probably tomorrow morning.
The two young men, rudy with
the glow of health, started from Lake
Superior, July 9Th. They live on the
trophies Of their guns and fishing
lines, augmented by vegetables and
other supplies purchased on the way.
They carry a tent and camp at the
end of the days padding. The duo
have accomplished seventeen hun
dred mile trip to Keokuk and have as
much further to go before they reach
New Orleans. From New Orleans the
canoe will be shipped to Florida and
the two men will journey thither and
take up their cruise again in the land
of perpetual sunshine.
Mr.. Schepper Is an associate editor
Of the "Outer's Book" magazine de-
voted to the interests. of sportsmen
and published in Chicago, which is
his home. Mr.. Bond comes from Mus
catfne Iowa. During the passage
down stream all hunting lodges and
camps along the river are visited by
the canoeists and in so doing Mr..
Schepper gathers much useful data. In
addition to the literary contributions
Mr.. Schepper utilizes the camera to
good advantage and draws sketches
which he uses to illustrate his stories.
The two men have dog, pointer,
with them, who Is used In hunting
and also acts as protector when in
camp. Mr.. Bond said that ducks were
indeed plentiful, and as for rabbits
and squirrels. he could truthfu1ly say
that he hated the sight OF them, they
had consumed them in such quanti-
ties.
Below Keokuk they expect 20 make
