FIT. MADISON TO
CHANGE NAMES
Movement on to Change the Names
Of All the Streets in The Other
County Seat by Action
of Council

The Fort Madison city council
when 1t meets next Monday night
will receive a delegation from the
chamber of commerce with a strong
suggestion that all the streets in the
other county seats be renamed, In
order to simplify matters and enable
people to find the place they want
to go to.
1t is the idea OF the chamber of
commerce that all streets running
north and south should be changed
to read First street, Second street,
ETC., and those running east and west
to First avenue. Second avenue, etc.
Messrs. J. E. Negus. George Antilles
and p. I. Robertson are to take the
matter up with the city council.
1t is pointed out that much confu-
sion arises in an effort to find GER
tain numbers on many streets. this
especially being the case with stran-
gers, and the remaining Of all
as suggested, would
make the task an easy one.
Business men and citizens in gen.
eral seem to favor the move, and it
is expected that quick action on the
matter will be taken by the council

NEW STUNT BY
BOY PATRIOTS
Science of the Twentieth Century
and High Cost Of Firecrackers
Produce Interesting
Result.

Hamilton patriotic and noise iov
ing boys invented new stant tc
make noise on the Fourth of July
The Hamilton boy secured com
plett can, either a. baking powder
can or another can opened by re
moving the lid without cutting It,
Into the can he put pieces Of car
bide of calcium broken into com.
paratively small pieces. In the be-
ginning, he punched a nail hole in
the bottom of the can. He spit vigor-
ously into the can, upon the carbide,
and replaced the lid
Then the can was placed on two
bricks separated several inches By
that time, considerable acetylene
has been formed by the union of the
carbide and the saliva water. Then
a match is held under the hole in
the bottom of the can, and the acety-
lene explodes. The top of the can
blows off with loud report. and
part of the game is to catch it when
II comes down. The same stunt is
repeated Indefinitely with the same
can as long as the carbide lasts,
which is a long time.
The high cost of f1recrackers, and
perhaps the fact that Keokuk now
mas the largest Independent carbide
factory in the country, are at the
bottom of this new noise making
method of the small boy.

The case against C. NJ Erwin, OF
the Des Moines river bridge com
munity, was summarially ended Thurs
dav evening, when the justice of the
peace who was trying it dismissed the
proceedings before Erwins witnesses
we're heard John Erwin, son of the
other man, was also a defendant dis
charged by the court.
w. II. Clifford filed the information
AGAINST the Erwins upon which war
rants for their arrest were issued. The
charge was disturbing the peace.
Tuesday, the trial started and half
dozen witnesses for the state were
heard, although the county attorney
did not appear. These witnesses told
stories that showed antipathy to the
Erwins who live on a farm there
which c.. M. Erwin owns.
Defense Not Necessary
At the end of the testimony for the
prosecution, the justice of the peace
continued the trial over until Thurs
day evening at o'clock. At that
time Erwin had a number of good citi-
zens to testify in contradiction to the
witnesses who had been heard, but
they were not necessary.
When the trial was resumed Thurs
day evening, the court on its own mo-
ton said it was convinced that the
interests of Justice would be served
best by stopping right there, and that
both the Erwins were discharged on
record Of not guilty.

They looked over the large field
of orators in Iowa and finally picked
out the Keokuk man as the best one
to tell the Germans living in America
where they stand.
These people are still talking and
feeling that Germany has been
abused at the end of war in which
the Huns were entirely righteous
and Uncle Sam cruel and mercenary.
Come out and tell them anything

there that he gained reputation for
talking straight talk on the platform.

in advance. he arrived to make the
address and found there were no lights
near the platform, everything there
abouts dark, no audience, and the
mayor refusing to introduce him to
any audience that might collect.
Lights were provided, counter at
fractions bucked, and without formal
McManus made speech
that told exactly the position which
ought to be taken by men and women
who came to America from Ger
many. He did not mince words, and
neither did he abuse them-he just
pointed out how mean and foolish
and small souled they were, and it
was a speech worth going miles to
hear, What he said at Greenfield is
not known here yet, as he went there
telling anybody anything
about it.
