benefited by its use.
Among the large number that
have been received in the past
few days, none are more interest
ing than the following letter from
DIR. J I. Edwards, of Favette-

However it Is not alone the fact that
Washington pays a higher rate for cleo

base our conviction that the water power
of the Potomac should be developed. II
this were the case we could merely offer
as a remedy a municipal electric plant

mittee is convinced that the development
of the power of the falls of the Potomac
river is the most desirable means of sup

Washington. one reason being that the
smoke nuisance would be eliminated The
cost of current from Great Falls for the
District would not only be as low as the

C who went to Des Moines with the

border, but was relieved from active
soldier duty on account of illness,
having had an operation for appen-

Saturday. He has been at the re-
cruiting station in that city. He
says Gen. Logan received word from
the war department at Washington
a few days ago that the Iowa troops
would probably not be relieved be-
fore spring. Preparations have been
made for the winter and the fndi-
cations at present are that the men,
bers of Company c will be required
to serve on the border during the
winter. OF course future develop
ments will influence the matter AMI
it may be that conditions will SO
change that the boys may be releas-

IMPROVEMENTS
At REST ROOM
Floors and Ceilings Painted and Hot
Water Attachment to Pipes
in Lavatory.

The Webster City rest room is re-
ceiving q few improvements this
week and already the ceilings and
floors have been painted light grey
color. A hot water attachment will
soon be added to the pipes in the
lavatory-a great convenience for
the toilet ROOM
Beginning with Nov. 1st, Mrs. An
ma Hebdon will act as assistant mat
ron, going on duty at o'clock in
the evening and keeping the room
open until 10 o'clock at night. This
will take care of the travellers who
are waiting for the late trains and
be, so the committee in charge be-
lieve, convenience much appreciat-
ed. At any rate it is worth trying
out, and separate register will be
kept between these hours to find out
how many people make use of the
rooms evenings during month. If
the plan proves successful, it will
be continued indefinitely: if not, it
will be discontinued.
A small bank or box for free will
offerings has also been placed in the
rest room to receive the coins of
grateful travellers who are so often
surprised and glad to find room
where they may rest.
One thing is badly needed in the
rest room, and that is several more
chairs. This is the time of house
cleaning. and no doubt in the city
there are rockers and dining room
chairs which will gladly be offered
to the room. A small table, square
or round, is also needed for the girls
who bring their lunches to the
room. There is at present only one
table in the inner room where the
are eaten, and another table
is sorely needed. Anyone having
either chairs or table, is requested
to call the matron, Martin phone
440, and notify her. The things
will be called for later.
