Germany accedes to the demand for expression of regret and for the payment of indemnity But at the time the imperial government maintains that the act legal within the interpretation of the rules of war.

TRIP TO WARSAW
is ONE OF BEAUTY
Quincy Autoists Advised to Take
Route to Warsaw, Hamil-
ton and keokuk.

Quincy Herald: Quincy motorists
who are looking for an interesting
all-day drive, with good roads and
fine scenery, should choos, the drive
to Warsaw, Hamilton and Keokuk.
Just out of Quincy the roads are moth
ing to brag of-they are only good in
spots, but after reaching Lima, and
on into Warsaw and Hamilton, they
are splendid. The road to Warsaw
lies straight north from Lima, but
tourists who prefer to go to Hamil-
ton, will find turn to the east seven
miles this side Of Warsaw where a
signboard directs 1.-TWO lilies to SUIT
ter" From Suffer the road runs
straight north to Hamilton.
Between Lima and Warsaw there
are fine views Of rich, upland coun-
try all the way, and hard, smooth
road that permits even the drivers
attention to the scenery. Warsaw is
one of the prettiest little villages in
Illinois, with its SHADY. well-kept
streets, small park and lovely homes
built along the bluffs. From the site
of the Fort Edwards monument
there is view of the Mississippi
that is unsurpassed in loneliness. To
the north lie Keokuk and the great
white dam, spanning the river, and
two tiny green islands set into the
bright water like floating gardens,
Directly across the stream is the
mouth of the Des Moines.

CARNATIONS and game wardens along
the river have made such a. protest
against this, that there is chance
now that the government will allow a
short open season in both the spring
and fall, OF about three weeks or a
month each. The state gives an open
season for ducks, but they cannot be
hunted from the river.

A strain on Imagination.

Louisville Courier-Journal: The
average man cannot imagine the SEN

average man, including the average
owner of a steam yacht, one of the
problems Of life is how to live as he
likes without feeling financial strain.
The Millionaire, who can divert from
his own Golfers vast sums of money
to be devoted to the public good. and
yet cannot feel the slightest loss Of

and a good many we're not in favor
Of buying the property. All OF the
members who have looked over, the
new property are much pleased over
the purchase, several of them ex-
pressing willingness to increase
their subscriptions. There Is no
doubt but what the new property will
make an excellent club house when
remodeled, and one that is entirely
suited to the needs Of the Keokuk
club.
]. L. Brady will draw the plans for
rebuilding the club. Ernest Kip
stein Of St. Louis, has looked over
the property and has made some sug-
gestions and has kindly consented to
act in an advisory capacity in the
the completion OF the plans. 1t Is
the intention to have the plans ready
in time to begin work in about thirty
days, so the club may move into their
new quarters before winter.
The Keokuk Club Realty Co. Will
own the property and rent It to the

as adopted by the Keokuk Country
