River Traffic viii Soon
Open up.

CAPTAIN Walter Blair of the White
Collar line is expected in Keokuk soon
to consult with local agents regarding
the opening Of the river traffic season
He was in Burlington yesterday in
trim over this territory. He has an
no1lnced that the steamer keolluE will
leave her winter quarters on Saturday.

next day on the way to Quincy.
On Tuesday, April 4, the Keokuk

weeks when she will be succeeded by
the Helen Blair, and will then ply be-
tween Burlington and Quincy, alter
mating with the Keokuk.
The White Collar line has four boats
that wintered in the Davenport harbor.
The Keokuk, Black Hawk, Helen Blair
and the Morning Star have all been
overhauled and prepared for a siren

The Streckfus boats have been win

ed to stop the train, but that he was
unable to accomplish this before the
accident.
The travelling man, who told his
story after arriving at the depot,
stated that the engineer then stopped
the train and the two lifted the body
off the track and laid it by the side
of the road before starting UP again.
From the above statement, the re-
port that the engineer had not slowed
up and had run over the body after
striking it, would appear to be with
out foundation.
The accident is a regrettable one
in all respects and there are mys-
teries to it that may never be solved.
1t is generally believed now that Mr..
Pike made an attempt to catch the
train, but why he ran In front OF 1T
and looked back as II expecting it to
stop, as the testim ony so far would
tend to prove, is an unsolved point.
Engineer Reynolds when he made his
report at the station, said that he
blew the whistle and supposed that
the man on the track would step of.
Inquest Tomorrow.
The coroner's inquest will be held
tomorrow afternoon at o'clock. Act
ing Coroner James 8. Burrows nott-
fed Coroner Clements this afternoon
of the accident. The coroner's jury
is composed of John McCleary, Irwin
Brown and Herman Kenny.

1T is said now that all this talk
about its being against the law to
write a check for less than one dollar,
is mere talk. Commenting on this
fact, the Burlington Hawk-Eye says:
The old yarn has been revived that
a government statute provides a fine
Of $500 for issuing check for less
than dollar. The only danger about
sending such a check Is not having the
money in the bank to meet 1t or sign
ing some other fellows name to 1t. It
is matter Of record that Uncle Sam
himself, once upon a time, sent no
less a parsonage than Grover Cleve-

LIFE THAT MAkETH ALL THINGS
NEW.
A little sun, little rain,
A soft wind blowing from the west,
And woods and fields are sweet again,
And warmth within the mountains
breast. ..
So ample is the earth we tread,
So quick with love and life her
frame,
Ten thousand years have dawned and
fed
And still her magic is the same.
A little love, little trust,
A soft impulse, sudden dream,
And life as dry as desert dust
Is fresher than mountain stream.
So simple is the heart of man,
So ready for new hope and Joy
Ten thousand years since 1t began
Have left it younger than boy.

Thirty Americans, edited by Rupert

Quick, Safe Way
to Remove Hairs
Toilet Talksl

Keep a little delatone powder on
your dressing table and when ugly,
hairy growths appear, make a paste
with little of the powder and some
water, apply and let remain on the
hairy surface for or minutes, then
rub off, wash the skin and the hairs
have vanished. This treatment is
quite harmless and rarely more than
one application is required. but to
avoid disappointment care should be
used to buy the real delatone.
