265 Passengers on Board.
New York, Oct. 28.-Cable ship news
from London received here stated
that the French line steamship Chi
cagO, which left Bordeaux October %
for New York with 265 passengers on
board. was heading for Fayal, the
Azores, with fire in No. 3 hold.
Officials of the French line said they
had received no word direct of the
Chicago. Cablegrams filed to the home
office of the line and to Fayal had
not been answered up to late hour.
Absence of direct word, French line
officials here said, led them to believe
the passengers on board were In no
immediate danger.
? 465 In All on Ship.
The Chicago carries only second and
third class passengers in addition to
freight. The day she sailed the line
here was advised there were 1877 cabin
and 9S steerage ON board. The ship
carries in addition a crew Of about
200.
The Chicago was built in 1908 and
is registered at 10,502 tons. With the
ROchambeau and Lafayette Of the
same line since the war began the
Chicago has provided one of the main
arteries of commerce for France with
This port.
The Chicago is an eight-day boat,
making up in comfort what Is lacking
in speed. 1t is 524 feet long and has
beam of 81 feet and is 43 feet deep.
1t is especially generous in its equip
ment for steerage passengers.

Would that our peace today were
like river and our righteousness as
the waves of the sea. Then we
would be indeed an ensign to the ma.
lions. But how different 1t really Is.
The nations now at war have as much
to teach us as we have to teach them.
They rebuke our, worship of comfort
and money by the daily offering, upon
reeking altar, of life and treasure;
they declare to us that Intoxicating
liquor which is so freely and care
lessly drunk in our land is a national
menace to be dispensed with at the
cost Of lowered revenue but with the
gain of heightened Virility; they
teach lis that food is. the staff of ply.
steal life, not an invitation to dainti-
ness and gluttony; they rebuke our
spiritual poverty by the splendor of
their spiritual eagerness which brings
new visions from God and breeds new
virtues in men; they shame our self.
indulgence by a degree of self-sacri-
flee that is royal.
Call to Repentance.
Whatever apology may be made
or local explanation at home or
abroad for the world confusion, 1t is
none the less an outcome and a reve-
lation of unchristian principles that
have dominated the life of western
Christendom, and of which both the
church and the nations have need to
repent.
Greed of possession, of honor or
pleasure, have literally dethroned
God from His supreme place among
ment. The sole cure is to exalt God.
Thus far the church has been only
strong enough to see and covet, not
strong enough to consummate her
ideal. Her own disunion dims her
hopes and binders her progress. A
divided church is powerless to create
an undivided world. The breakdown
of secular efforts to maintain stable
order constitutes a special call to her
to SO equip herself as to fulfill her
conciliating Office among individuals
and groups of men.
I'VE close our words of counsel
and eXhortation with our faces set
toward the dawn. History makeA
plain to us that mans extremity is
Gods opportunity. Beneath every
pail of tragedy lies hidden the glory
of God-new visions of faith, new
counsels of virtue-to be revealed to
and discovered by those who look not
at the things which are seen, but at
things which are not seen, and who
wrestle with God for blessing"

RELIEVE HEADACHES
WITHOUT DOSING
By Applying Sloan's Liniment to
Forehead You Can Stop
the Severe Pains

Many headaches are Of a neuralgia
origin. The symptoms Of such head.
aches are intense and lingering pains
in the brow, temples or back of the, head.
There is one certain relief that has
been known and recommended fol
years back, Sloan's Liniment. One
application and the dull pain is practi-
cally gone. 1t is easily applied without
rubbing. Rubbing is unnecessary, as
Sloan's Eminent quickly penetrates tc
the seat of trouble.
Aching muscles, rheumatism, bruises,
lumbago, chilblains, sprains and stiff
neck can also be most effectively treated
with Sloan's Liniment. Cleaner than
mussy plasters or ointments; it does
not stain the skin or clog the pores.
AT all drug stores, 25c., 50c., $500.

THE BOONE TRAIL
FINALLY LOCATED
PRES. J. 3. McHosE MAKES HIS
ANNOUNCEMENTS TODAY.
SEVERAL CONTESTS SETTLED
Route Comes Through Prairie City
and PelIa To oskaloosa-Thenee
To Fremont and ottumwa-Per-
manent Markings Soon.

Boone, Ia, Oct. 3O.-The officers of
the Daniel Boone Trail, President J.
B. McHose of Boone, President
John F. Ford, FIT. Dodge, with the as.
sistance of Director Paul Beer of Des
MOines, have finished ironing out all
in the state Of Iowa.
In northern Kossuth county there
was rivalry between the towns OF
Ledyard and Germania in which Led
yard won out.
In Boone and Webster counties two
routes were presented, one by Pilot
Mound and Dayton from Ogden, the
other leaving the Lincoln Highway
four miles west of Ogden, going due
north through BoXholm, IA miles to
the Dayton-Harcourt road. This
matter was referred by the president
and vice president to Paul Beer, for
his report as an outside and entirely
dislnterested party and he reported
in favor of the Boxholm route, as be
ing the best road.
Madrid South.
From Madrid to Des Moines two
routes were offered one via Polk Cit,
and the other more directly south
past Camp Dodge and the Hyperion
Club. The decision was unanimour
for the Hyperion route as presenting
the straightest and least dangerous
route for modern travel, and better
paved.
One other contest involved the
whole line from Des Moines to the
Missouri line, one going through Car.
Isle, Knoxville and Abba, on the west
side Of the river, the other going
through Prairie City, Monroe, Pella
Oskaloosa, Ottumwa and Bloomfield
known as the East Side route. The
decision here was also unanimous
The East Side Trail was found the
better road and hooked up the best
string of cities and towns.
Work. Of Marking. .-...s.
The net result of these contests Is
that the trail remains as originally 10
Gated except that the Hyperion route
was substituted for the Polk City
route. These decisions leave the
ground now clear for marking the
trail in a manner second to no other
in the state and work has commenced
in many places. A nine foot galvan
lied steel post will be used carrying
a beautiful enameled steel sign 10x3O
inches in size with the words, Dan
lei Boone Trail, Canada to Gulf" at
all intersections. Among the towns
that have already ordered their signs
are Mankato and Good Thunder, Min.
nesota, Ledyard, Boxholm, Pella and
Fremont, Iowa. Other cities and
towns are moving and will soon fall
in line.
The Automobile Blue Book Co. are
interesting themselves in the Trai
and will publish the route in their
next years edition. Mr.. Cotton
their representative, is expected in
the city tonight and will be piloted
over the trail as far as the Missouri
line by Pres. McHose for the purpose
Of logging the entire route. Part OF
the Missouri line has already been
worked. Weather permitting they
will start Saturday morning.

What Sidewalks win DO.

Take a look about O'Neips Addition

some remarkable changes. Not a

more than the cost of the walk.
