bring a message from the city which
bears the name of Black Hawks enc

Our city Of Keokuk brings words
of congratulations that Burlington has
added one more tablet to the memory
Of Black Hawk, the sturdy Sac war
rior He was full blooded Sac,
though not a chief Of the Sac nation.
He was simply brave. His father
was the tribal medicine man. he stood
five feet, eleven inches in his moe

were pinched and drawn, the eyes
bright, black and restless and an alb

ledge Of Black Hawk is denied us, the
little known of him prior to 1889 is
derived from less than dozen
sources. A few settlers only knew
him, because settlers about his haunts
in those days were very scarce. his
character has been universally judged
by the contact with him during the
last five Or six years OF his long life.
While he was in a sense a captive
brooding over his fallen estate, at
such an age, shorn of power, chaflng
under restrictions. disgruntled at the
supremacy Of his ancient enemy Keo-

wonder he evoked that pity which so
universally appeals to us Americans,
that pity which surely is allowed to
cover multitude Of sins?

YOUR OWN LITTLE TOWN

YOUR OWN TIE TOWN
There are fancier towns than your
own little town,
There are towns that are bigger than
this;
And the people who live in the timer
towns,
Don't know what excitement they
miss.
There are things you can see in a
Weather town,
That you can't in a town that is small
And yet. up and down, there is no
other town,
Like your own little town, after all.

years ago by body OF American
troops that included jefferson Davis
and Abraham Lincoln. The promon-
tory stretches $50 feet above the
swirling current of the picturesque
Rock river, and the statue Is forty
eight feet high. not including the huge
base. For fifteen years Mr. Taft has
had his summer home and studio at
Eagles Nest on the Rock river. The
statue stands at the highest point of
the cliff overlooking south a match
less stretch of land and river, and 1t
was from here that Black Hawk was
finally driven out Of Illinois. For the
first time concrete has been applied
to the art of real sculpture in mod.
ern times.
The Poetic Tribute.
Mr.. Taft's statue was built with the
idea Of commemorating Black Hawk
and his people. The figure was not
inspired by any portrait Of the famous
Rock river chief-the face Is purely
ideal. All the usual Indian trappings
such as beads, elks' teeth. feathers,
buckskins and other conventional signs
have been left off. The site for the
statue was determined by placing
rough twenty foot model in different
spots and viewing it from many
points. Hamlin Garland, the novelist
who regards dorado Taft as the great
est artistic educative personality in
the central west today, has written
this tribute in verse to the statue:
Guiltless as the panther in the artists
eyes,
Bold as the Greek in grace of limb,
His songs, his deeds, his signal cries
Shall live in story after him.
Need made him what he was, as bee
Or serpent crawls or stings or flies
So this man warred at Gods decree,
And died beneath defeating skies.
So here today, free from all hate and
dread,
Here midway 'twixt the seas,
We pay our artist tribute to the dead
Here on this hill above these peace
full leas.
Upon the path along the vale
Which Black Hawk yielded with
broken heart,
With brooding face to tell
We raise this symbol of remorseful
art.
Long after our short course is run
When not one red maids cheek shall
glow
Beneath the kiss of prairie sun:
When Sioux and Fox and Navajo
Have merged to one composite race,
Travellers from other lands shall scan
This vast and brooding face
And say, This was the first Ameri-
can"

Iowa City who is chairman Of the
committee for protection of the flag.
In introducing her the state regent
said: "She is the woman who has
made life miserable for the Iowa bank

violated the law in putting a white
border around their flag.

and some land was turned.
Mile Kemp and his two sister,
of Antioch, spent Saturday night and
Sunday with E. A. Kemp's family.
E. L. Mayes is still seriously sick
and but little difference is noticed
in his condition.
The people are rounding up their
work and trying to get ready for
Xmas. Several families have not
moved yet.
A fine boy was born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Elijah Davis last Friday night.
The schools will close Friday CIV
ing the little folks a two weeks va
cation.
Look around and see if there is a
poor needy child or person in your
midst that you can make happy
Xmas by giving them something they
really need and leave off the use
less expense of buying something ex-
pensive for friend with just the
idea "I'll tickle you and you tickle
me" ALLEN
