IMPORTANT NOTICE.

Any special width Of public road,
less than 30 feet, must be sustained
by the county records, otherwise the
width Of the right of way of our coun-
ty roads, is not less than thirty feet.
Fences on this righo Of way, un.
der our recently amended road law,
are distractions, and as such are sub
Jcct to removal or to be set back, un-
der penalty, on three days notice from
the County Road Department.
While very evident that such an ar
bitrary move would inflict considcra-
bic pecuniary loss and inconvenience
upon our people, and might be from
many standpoints, most inadyisablc,
nevertheless it is not to be inferred
that the county through inactivity in
this respect, resigns the prcrogative
of removing at any time any or all
fences obstructing the right of way
would earnestly request, there
fore, in order to meet the require
ments of the law, as it behooves ev-
cry good citizen that you kindly coop
crate with your road department ir
| supporting the legal status by hereaf.
ter, and from this date, when con.
structing new fences or repairing ant
replacing the old along the public
road, set the same on the line OF
right of way. If in doubt as to sale
line, advise the road department
which will render immediate advice OF
service.
All fences constructed or renewed
subsequent to this notice, when bull
IN the public right of way, will be re
garded as distractions, and the prop
CT action for the removal thereof vii
be taken as the law directs

PREDICT FINE DUCK
SHOOTING IN FALL

McGregor, Sept. Local hunters
predict fine duck shooting this fall
though it is expected it will be late.
Ordinarily good many black ducks
stay in the sloughs and lakes about
McGregor all summer, affording shoot.
ing as soon as the season opens. The
high water this year prevented them
from nesting on the river and except
for the wood ducks which always stay
there will be no duck shooting until
the fiocks from the north come in Octo'
Der or the last of September.
Quite a number of wood ducks and
a few rsnipe have been seen by hunt
ers recently and the game warden has
been around within the last few days
Investigating several reported viola
tons of the game laws.
A fifteen mile stretch of the sloughs
and ponds of the Mississippi from the
mouth of the Wisconsin river north
beyond Waukon Junction including
Horseshoe, Mudhen, Grass and Lily
lakes near McGregor is considered one
of the best duck hunting sections of
the upper river. -...

KEOKUK co. MAN
TAKEN TO HOSPITAL

Sgourney, Sept. 8. John Stahl,
aged about sixty-four years, was taken
to the Mt Pleasant hospital this week
Mr.. Stahl was agent for the Singer
Sewing Machine company and about
three weeks ago was doing some, col
lecting for the company in the south
part of the county, near ,Martinsburg.
Just before noon he stopped at farm
house and made arrangements for his
dinner, saying that he was going q
short distance to see man on a bust
ness matter and would be back in time
for dinner. When dinner time came
and Mr.. Stahl did not return search
was instituted by the farmer, with the
result that Mr.. Stahl was found lying
along the road side In an unconscious
condition. The horse and buggy which
he had been driving we're found not
far away. Mr.. Stahl had two serious
wounds on his head and it Is believed
that the horse ran away and pulled
him out of the buggy resulting in his
injury. He never regained his mind
to tell just what happened and during
the last few days his condition has
become so serious that 1t was thought
best to take him to the hospital for
treatment. In the hope that his condi-
ton may be improved.

...s ANOTHER STRIKE

New York, Sept. 5.-A strike seems
imminent today on the elevated and
subway lines operated by the Inter.
borough Rapid Transit Co. in Manhat'
ton and the Bronx.
Company officials and representa-
tives Of the Amalgamated association
OF Street and Electric Railways EN-.
ployes met. this morning to consider
demands of the union that the com,
pany annul contracts signed by the
employees several days ago when a
strike first threatened. But President
Shonts announcement that the com
pany would not grant the unions de-
mands indicated that today's meeting
would fail to bring peace.
Mr.. Shonts has appealed to Gov
Whitman and Mayor Mitchell asking
that the company have the protection
of the militia and the police, If neces'
sary. s.& ~.
The contract which, the employees
union wishes to have annulled binds
the employees not to ask for. advances
in pay. and improvements in working
conditions other than those already
granted to them. IA

In Memoriam
Frances |, Thompson.

Saturday morning at o'clock Miss
Frances l.. Thompson passed away at
her home in Kirkville. Miss Thomp-
son was born in Mohawk Valley. Ohio,
and in her early girlhood moved with
her parents to Kirkville After COM
plotting the course In the schools there
she entered Iowa Wesleyan university,
from which she graduated with high
honors,
Miss Thompson had long and sue
;cessful career a. a teacher. She be-
gan her work In Mcpherson, Kans.,
and after three years In the city
schools there, returned to Kirkville
and was principal of the schools for
several years. Following years rest,
she accepted a position in the high
school In Crete, Nebr. Later she was
professor of Latin and Greek in the
schools Of Superior, Nebr. From there
she was called to professorship, In
the Nebraska Wesleyan university.
Miss Thompson became a popular and
influential member OF the university
faculty But wishing to be at home
she resigned, returned to Kirkville,
and assumed charge of the schools
until failing health compelled her to
resign In January, 1915.
She put her whole heart and IN
tellect into her work. AS a teacher
she was ever an inspiration. Her
precept and example taught many a
priceless lesson not found In books
| Of pedagogy. How ahe loved her
pupils. how she yearned over. them,
how she put forth the restraining
hand in wrong doing, how gently and
firmly she held them in the right way
many a man and woman in the states
of Iowa and Nebraska will testify.
Like the granite Of the New England
hills in principle; like the wilderness of
snow in purity. like the fragrance Of
