Talk by Laurence

A good sized crowd of Keokuk peo
pie toured Glacier Park last night
under the guidance of Laurance
d. Kitchell, and with the aid
of motion picture films and
stereopticon slides, Mr.. KitchelI
has personality, a delightful voice
and q real love Of his theme. His
lecture was a triumph, and was en-
joyed by everyone who went to hear
him. The lecture was given at the
high school auditorium.
Mr. Kitchell spent the summer OF
1875 in Glacier Park gathering the
material for this lecture. He was
with band of Blackfeet' Indians for
a time. The lecturer starts at st.
Paul with his personally conducted
party and takes them across the
beautiful land Of the Minnesotas and
into the land Of the Dakotas and
thence to Glacier Park through east
ern Montana.
In the tour Of the park the lee
turer illustrates all the modes of
traveI-ponies, autos, launches on
the lakes, and even the joys of hik-

THEY WERE ALL LATE
Three Trains, Two During the
Night, Detoured Through
Illinois to Avoid
Trouble.

Train service in and out Of Keo.
kuk yesterday was badly dem oraliZed
on account of the high water and high
winds. With every indication today
| Of falling waters, trainmen on this
division are inclined to the belief that
the climax was reached yesterday,
and that after today something like
normal schedules may be resumed.
Another downpour of rain, however,
may send their plans awry.
Trains were running on the keo-
kuk-St. Louis division yesterday, but
were late. Three trains were de-
toured, two of these being night
trains. Service on the through line
was resumed as usual this morning.
and the southbound train arrived
practically on time. The northbound
train, however, was late.
The afternoon train from st. Louis
was late in arriving. The through
train to st. Paul from st. Louis, due
at 7:35 o'clock did not get in until
after II o'clock. Rather than run
through the submerged places along
the track after dark, the southbound
Burlington due to arrive at 12:45
o'clock, was detoured through Illi-
nois. The northbound train due to
arrive at 2:35 o'clock was also de-
toured.
Mail as result was delayed at the
local postoffice. Clerks were kept

WATER AND WINDS C0ASP|RE
TO HALT TRAIN SCHEDULES
mail from detoured trains was brought
down on No. IL.
Hiqh Wind is Worst.

High Wind is Worst.
The high wind was principally what
caused the trouble yesterday. 1t
dashed the waves against the tracks,
and beat the water into the rock bal
lasting. For stretch Of several
miles the track is under water. in
some places the rails just covered,
in others the car steps shipping water
off the lowest tread. ..
Railroad men say that there is
practically no danger as far as, any
washouts in track may be concerned.
The track in the flooded district is
laid on solid bed of rock, and rock
is constantly used in filling in the
track The only danger at night is
from drift wood which washes in with
every wave, and to guard against rum
ming into any Of this, pilot riders are
placed on the engines.
Rock Island All Right.
No trouble has been reported from
the Carthage branch Of the
Burlington, according to the
local officials. While the water is
high through that district there
seems to be little trouble in moving
trains. The Rock Island has been de-
layed somewhat by running slow, but
there seems to be no trouble on this
line from water. 1t was reported yes
terday that there were some soft
spots near Belfast, but these didn't
materialize in any form to make
trouble.
The river stage at Keokuk shows a
fall since yesterday. The stage meas
ures today 159. 1t is reported that
frenueptIy water will be found to be
falling at one place and rising at the
next town south. This is due to the
wave movement Indications are for
falling waters for the next few days.
The Des Moines river shows ten
dency to recede.
