Success of Celebration Leads
Business Men to Realize
the Need.
.ADVERTISES BRUNSWICK
Approximately 5000 Children,
Women and Men Attended
During Most Eventful Week
in City's History.
Gala Week is coming!


Ere the sounds of mirth had died
on the last day of Brunswick's first
Gala Week, the movement had been
launched by the committee which in
augurated the celebration of the
citys wonderful prosperity, to make
the occasion a permanent affair. The
work of subscribing members of the
Retail Merchants association, the
Board Of Trade and others to an in
corporation proposal will be started
the coming week. Every single mem
lber of the committee and practically
every business man to whom the sub
iect has been broached is strongly
in favor of making Gala Week a per
manent and annual institution.
One man enthusiastically declared
No, I'm against having Gala Week
an annual affir. 1t ought to be a
semi-annual affair"
One Of the features Of next week
will probably be the passing OF res
olutions of thanks and praise by va
rious societies for the hard and un-
selfish devotion given to the big oc-
casion by each and every member of
the committee. They will open their
desks Monday to find mail piled for
DAYS and matters of business which
have been awaiting their attention
for nearly two weeks, confronting
them. To re-state the committee. was
composed thus: R. l.. Philips, ger
eral chairman; l.. H. Haym, treas
urer; H. r. Brown, secretary; eXecu-
tive committee: r. l.. Philips, l.. H
Havm. A. J. Gordon. Phil Burgess,
]. H. Hopkins, ]. B. Abrams, and
George w. Harper. The committee
chairmanships were distributed as
follows: ]. B. Abrams, finance; NJ
Walsh, publicity; j. P. Harrell en-
tertainment; George H. Smith, re
ception; George w. Harper, decora-
tions, and Phil Burgess, parades
To the many women, who acted
unofficially on their own initiative,
much of the credit is due for the
success of the event, but woman-like,
they will have their satisfaction only
in the knowledge of having aided
effectively a good cause.
E. T. Lamb, president of the A.
B. and A., visiting in Brunswick for
the grand finale" of the entertain
ment. was among the many enthusias-
tic visitors to urge Brunswickians to
make the affair one of the city's in

Summarized Of the spIrlt.

Some people, I think, go through
three periods of youth; physical, men
tai and spiritual. The body comes
first to its adolescence; then the
mind, and then, last of all, the spirit.
Sometimes there comes a late unex-
pected Towering of the soul when all
possibility of further development is
apparently over. To my astonishment
(for had supposed that youth was
certainly passed), find myself expert
encing now spring-tide more won
derful, more lovely and more rich in
promise, than that have ever known;
it is, think, the spring-tide Of the
spirit.-From the Atlantic.

with heaps of money at his disposal,
as he says, perhaps he will be able
to build that Burlington-Quincy line
before snow falls next winter. And
as Charles Petsch is about to scour
the east for rails, etc, with a horse
shoe at his heels, perhaps he will be
able to swing the FIT. Madison-Nau-

has two individuals building railroads
for her at the same time, hence we
are in luck. Come on Richard, don't

the -nited States district court here
by the Fort Madison Ice company VS..

pany. The plaintiff alleges that the
building of the aam caused the water
to back up against his ice houses,
and it is alleged that there was a
loss Of ice in the storage houses by
seepage. and that the backing up of
the water has caused damage to the
ice fields. For the alleged loss and
use of the Ice house, tracks, machin-
cry, and loss of value of ice stored,
and loss of value of lease hold inter
est in the lands, ETC., plaintiff asks
the value of S15O,000.
In count two of his petition plain
tiff prays that the company operating
the dam be required to maintain the
water at crest not to exceed thirty
five feet above standard low water
mark. The attorneys for plaintiff are
j. r. Frailey, E. c. Weber and E. H.
Pollard, all of Fort Madison. Ernest
Corsepius of Fort Madison is the
president of the ice company bringing
the suit.
Fields Destroyed, Claim.
It is claimed by the plaintiff that
prior to the building of the dam, ice
fields were formed in front of the
ice house. These, it is claimed, have
been destroyed by the building of the
dam and the alleged backing up OF
the water. In order to get ice now,
it is said that 1t is necessary to go
further down the river. Only in cold
est weather does this water freeze.
1t is alleged that the defendant so
diverted the natura4 flow Of the water
that the ice fields are destroyed and
merchantable ice cannot be obtained.
1t is alleged in the petition that
the plaintiff had ice stored in his ice
houses and that by reason Of build
/ ing the dam, and failure to protect
the land on which the houses were
built, there was seepage, and that
water flowed into the ice house, and
caused the ice to melt. 1t is claimed
that the usefulness Of the plant for
storage has been destroyed.

be issued to forts guarding American

scribed by officers who have been fol-

thusiastic over the possibilities which
the new weapon affords of simplifying

While the mechanism Of the mine is

Our Wildcats.

From the earliest settlement Of
America the bobcat, or bay lynx, has
figured largely in hunting literature,
and the popular estimate of it's char
acter is well attested by the frontier
idea of the superlative physical PROV
ess of man who can whip his weight
in Wildcats Although our wildcat
usually weighs less than twenty
pounds, if it's reputed fierceness could
be sustained it would be an awkward
foe. But, so far as man is concerned,
unless it is cornered and forced to de-
fend itself it is extremely timid and
inoffensive. Like all cats, it, is very
muscular and active, and to the rab-
bits, squirrels, mice, grouse and other
small game upon which it feeds it is
a persistent and remorseless enemy.
AS in the case of 1ost small cats, the
stealthy hunting habits Of the bay
lynx render it excessively destructive
to ground frequenting birds. especially
to quail, grouse and other game birds.
For this reason, like many of it's kind,
it is outlawed in all settled parts Of
the country National Geographic Mag
