The Latest

With their ankles swathed in stock
ing
OF the sOftest silken kind
And their cunning calves coqueting
With the gay tlirtatious wind.
Is it strange that we should wonder
At the fair and tickle sex,
When we find them wrapping woolens,
Yards and yards, around their
necks?
With their pretty heads enveoped
In their scarves of softest snow
Til we'd scarcely know 'our angel"
From a Hausfrau Eskimo:
With a single eye appearing
From amid the tleecy fluff.
They wear peek-a-boozy stockings
And they feel quite warm enough. "
While they're freezing to the
south'rd-
And there's plenty there to freeze
All their norther land is smothered
And they're fainting for breeze,
While their necks are full of flannel
And their ankle bones are bare
They are perfectly c0ntented:
It's the style, and "they don't
care"

SOME CRITICISMS
ON COUNTY JAILs
IT, Madicon County Officials Say In
stitutions in Both Places Have
Grievoue Faults


That the construction of the county
iails both at this city and Keokuk is
faulty from one view point, Is the
opinion of Fort Madison county Off
Gals. says the Gem City. The point
of construction that is being criticised
by them lies in the fact that any i'll
mate of the jail can communicate
with another, in many cases with a
whisper.
At the Fort Madison jail (the same
conditions exist at Keokuk) the auth
critics have found it impossible to
incarcerate prisoners without leaving
them in a position where they can
converse with other inmates Even
the inmates of the women's quarters
can hear every WORD, spoken IN the
bull pen," the cell room allotted to
all classes of minor violators and
which is located below the woman's
quarters.
In manv cases the Officers have re-
ceiyed telephone messages In the
. Offices. which we're plainly overheard
by the inmates.
inter communication in the county
tails Is practice, which If employed
between some inmates is OF little lirl'
portance, but when permitted TO DC
| followed between some prisoners, the
results might Nbe disastrous to the
| nrogress of convictions On the part
OF the officers. That 1t cannot be pre-
vented in either Of the local jails, is
certain and it has been suggested that
some steps be taken to overcome the
existing condition.

the company was made by Captain

tother officers of Company l.. The bill
new before the legislature that will
provide for the elimination Of one OF
the four regiments in this state and
for the formation of a battalion Of

these men believe. If it is passed
twelve of the weakest companies OF
the Iowa guard will be disbanded.
Captain Powell feels certain tina,
Company l. will receive rating tina,
will insure it's retention here. If the
pro osed law is passed it is not likely
that any effort will be made to secure
for this city any of the new depart
ments that would be added to the

looking forward to the first of Apri
