REAL NAVAL VET. IS
 ADMIRAL $. B. LUCE

Newport, R. l., March 22.-Of the hundreds of naval officers, active or retired, who make Newport their home or headquarters, none has fol- lowed with closer interest the recent active steps in the direction of naval preparedness than has Rear Admiral Stephen B. Luce, U. s. N, retired. who next Sunday will celebrate his 90th birthday anniversary.
 Admiral Luce has experienced all the phases of naval practice since the time of Nelson and Trafalgar, for naval progress was very slow in the early days. He saw the old fighting frigates and ships of the line reach their highest perfection. He saw the wooden walls give place to iron, and then to hardened plates of steel. And he saw the batteries of smooth-bore cannon which rose, tier upon tier high above the water line, give place to turrents and barbettesl armed with guns than can throw solid shot farther than the old type of guns could be heard.
 1. The veteran sea fighter entered the service at lineage of fourteen. He visited Japan in the. old frigate Co- lumbus twelve year before the ex- petition of Perry set out. He served in the Mexican and civil wars with distinction and in later years circum- navigated the globe several times Before his retirement he had spent forty-eight years on the active list, a record that yet remains unbroken And after his retirement he was re- tained on special duty for twenty-nine years, which gave him a record oi sixty-nine years of actual service. l. When he was retired on the active list, Admiral Luce founded the Naval War college at Newport, and became the foremost figure in the advance ment of naval training. For many years he lectured on special subjects at the War college. His last special duty was as a member of the Moody naval board of 1909.

Criminal Docket Set.


 Ninety-seven cases are set for trial on the criminal docket, which is to be taken up Monday, April 9. Many of the accused are charged with sell ing liquor, while several of the cases are appeals from decisions in the jus tice of the peace courts, and two from the city court.
 The case of T. s. Bradbury, charged with first degree murder in connec- ton with the death of P. c. Jenkins, and of Mrs. P. G. Jenkins, indicted on a charge of accessory in the same case. are set for Monday April 30. but the fact that other cases are on the docket for trial that day and for the day following indicates that the Bradbury case will not be called. Heretofore, an entire week has been allotted for the trial of Bradbury and it was needed the three times that it was tried. Mistrials resulted each time.
 The case of Jim Allen. indicted on a charge of assault to kill. for shoot ing Earl Carter, is fixed for Monday, April 23, while Earl Carter is to be tried, according to the docket, on April 25 on an indictment charging the sale of liquor.

The city council has approved the
plans Of the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy railroad for the rebuilding of

ton to be replaced is entirely OF
wood.

In all weathers the skin and COM
plexion can be kept wonderfully
clear, soft and white by the use of
this inexpensive lemon lotion which
any girl or woman can easily pre-
pare.
The tuice of two fresh lemons
strained into q bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white makes
whole quarter pint Of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
small jar Of the ordinary cold
creams. Care should be taken to
strain the lemon Juice through fine
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then
this lotion will keep fresh for
months Every woman knows that
lemon Juice is used to bleach and
remove such blenishes as freckles,
sallowness and tan, and is the ideal
skin softener, smoothener and
beautifer.
Just try it! Get three ounces OF
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and
make UP quarter pint Of this
sweetly fragrant lemon lotion. II
naturally should help to soften
freshep. bleach and bring out the
roses and hidden beauty OF any
! skin. Those who will make It g
habit to gently massage this lotion
! into the face, neck, arms and hands
once or twice daily may be repaid

Five Of Them In Charge Of U. s.
Steamer Nokomls Passed keo-
kuk This Morning Loaded
With Coal.
ADD SIXTH ONE HERE
Trip 10 Expected to Decide Whether
or Not Barge Line Of This
Character VIII be
Success.

Five steel barges with a cargo of
coal consigned from ST. Louis to st.
Paul passed Keokuk this morning in
tow Of the U. 8. steamer Nokomts. A
sixth barge Of coal was picked up
here, and the fleet proceeded up the
lake shortly before noon.
The trip Is being made for the pur-
pose OF ascertaining whether or not
navigation of this sort can be sue
cessfully carried on the Mississippi.
Special provision has been made for
conducting this test, and the govern
ment Is cooperating in the attempt
to find out Just what the situation is.
II there is a demand for transpor-
tation OF commodities Of this char
acter by barge, 1t is probable that
line can be established which Will
prove of benefit both as revival of
navigation and as cheap way for
sending non -perishable commodities.
The coal on the barges Is from
New Baden, ILL.,, according to big
sign which was plastered the entire
length of the barges. The New
Baden Coal and Mining Co., pro-
ducers of st. Louis, were the ship
pers. The coal Is consigned to st.
Paul and on the return trip the barges
will be loaded with ore.
The barges were dashed together,
two in front and three at the stern
Of the Nokomis. With the additional
barge picked up here, the order was
three and three, bow and stern.
1t is figured that 1t will take abou;
ten days for the trip. Three thous-
and tons Of coal are being carried on
this jaunt-
Had Fine Trip So Far.
The trip up to date has been a very
satisfactory one, the men in charge OF
the boat and barges said. They had
no trouble at all making the trip from
ST Louis to Keokuk There was no
trouble with water stage or with shoal
or bars and the trip was made in the
remarkably fast time Of a little over
two days. ~
The remainder of the trip will take
about seven days.
The test was arranged through the
cooperation Of the government en-
gfneers, and was discussed at the
meeting of the Upper Mississippi
River Improvement association last
fall.
Boat and barges cover considerable
space on the water and it was very
unusual sight to see the equipment
coming up the river. There is little
doubt in the minds Of local river boost
ers but that the successful voyage
now will open the way for additional
service on the river in the future.
