While the High Tension club is en-.
joying it's outing on Saturday to Maui
vo and Fort Madison, both the Keo-
kuk Electric company and the Mis-
sissippi River Power company will
make arrangements to take care Of
any emergency calls during the after
noon and evening. Automobiles are to
trail the Sidney to both Nauvoo and
Fort Madison and remain at those
places until the boat pulls out. II
there is any trouble at Keokuk and
men on the excursion are needed,
word will be sent to Nauvoo or Fort
Madison and when the boat touches
at those places, the men wanted will
be taken on the automobiles and hur-
ried to any point where they are
needed.
The amusement committee for the
High Tension club excursion has ar
ranged for several features for the
boat. The Community band has been
secured to give concert on the
upper deck. The band will be out
In it's new white uniforms.
A colored string instrument quar-
tette and colored vocal quartette
will also help to liven the hours on
the boat. The Sidney special orches-
ira will provide the music for the
dancing. The band and singers and
string quartette will be placed at diff
ferent sections of the boat SO that
there will be no danger OF the crowd
all flocking to one spot. The commit
tee wants to keep the crowd distrib-
uted as nearly as possible between

The weather promises good and the
Sidney will undoubtedly have one Of
the largest crowds Of the season.
