sought. it was said, in furthering what
ever program the union chiefs decide

Mr.. GOmperS' announcement was
contained in a telegram to the Illinois

His message was in reply to one in
which the Illinois organization asked
that a special convention of the Amerl-
can Federation of Labor be called to
perfect an alliance of the international
unions of the United States and
Canada and the railroad brotherhoodS
more effectively to fight out the life
and-death struggle of the workers"
Federation officials also pointed out

that assessments aggregating one
fourth of the net earnings of organ
lied workers be made until the OBJ

Wasn't Il a Pity7

Little Anne was very fond of ripe
olives, and her mother had to watch
her to see that she did not indulge too
freely. One day there was company,
and Anne managed to have the olive
dish stopped near her plate.
After the dinner her mother pointed
to the pile of pits on Anne's plate and
asked:
"How could you make such a pig
of yourself? I should think you would
be ashamed to see so many pits, and
ashamed to have others see them"
Anne hung her head and replied:
81 was. That's the reason l threw
all the rest of them on the floor"

PAVING CASES
MAY BE HEARD
Judge Craig is FamIiarizine Himself
With Statements involved in
Forty-seven Cases on Fl
Madison Docket.

With matters of routine nature
occupying the time of the court,
Judge John z. Craig is getting every
thing in readiness for the hearing
or the forty-seven paving cases
wherein the city of Fort Madison has
been made defendant. The Judge is
occupying all of the time possible in
reading over the voluminous testi-
mony offered, and is becoming as
conversant as possible with the
features of the cases, the Democrat
says.
Very few of the people of the city
have an idea of the great volume of
work which the hearing of the cases
will occasion for the court In the
forty-seven separate cases there are
far over 1000 typewriter pages of
testimony and more than eighty ex-
hibits, composed mainly of small
and large sections of the paving
work over which the disputes arose
1t is hoped by the court that in
the case of Maria Schlapp VS.. the
city of Fort Madison, which has been
assigned by Judge Craig for hearing
on October 9th, decision may be
made which will make II unnecessary

Third Annual Turkey Contest and Fish
Fry VIII be Held Saturday
Afternoon at Cedar
Glen.
SIX BIRDS AT STAKE
Crack Marksmen and Those Who Have
Trouble Locating the Target
viii All Get Chance to
Win Bird.

The third annual turkey shoot and
! fish fry of the High Tension club will
be held Saturday afternoon at Cedar
Glen. Elaborate preparations are
being made for the event, and club
members and their guests are going to
enjoy something good in the way OF
amusements and supper. President
Herman Davis OF the club has an
nounced the event, and says that it
will be one of the big days on the
clubs calendar.
A special car will carry the mem
bers to the glen leaving Keokuk at
noon and returning at seven O'clock.
There will be six turkeys to be COM
peted for in the shooting matches and
these will be awarded on two counts.
Three turkeys will go to the best
marksmen on straight craftsmanship
classification Three others will go to
the ones who win in the shoot off.
These will be virtually an open class,
and the man who has hard time
hitting the left side of barn door
will still have chance for lucky shot
in the center of the target to win him
a turkey.
Following the shoot supper will be
served, and this will be in the form
of fish fry Willis Wood is the chef
in charge Of the supper. This will
prove an interesting feature to the
club members.
Besides the target shooting there
will be horseshoe pitching and other
games of this sort for those who wish
to indulge in something less belliger-
ent than banging away at a target
with a twenty-five caliber rifle.

who claims Keokuk as his home, out
Of Burlington. 1t was practically GER
tain that he tried to "mooch" at the
Y. W. c. A. and also that he was
drunk most of the time. However.
there are additional complaints. Sew
eral business men say that he called
on them in an.effort to beg money, and
a minister on West hill was solicited
for helping hand" by Rose and got
1t. He uses all kinds of arguments,
but from now on must use said argu-
ments in some other city.
