FOR DAYLIGHT
keossuk Motorist Working Hard to
Keep Congress From Repeal
ing Change Of Clock
aw

I'm afraid 1t will be repealed be-
cause it is so sensible" said Beverly
B. Hobbs this morning. pausing in
the middle of a strenuous campaign
to get Keokuk people to telegraph
congress to let the clock changing
law alone.
He wired both Iowa senators and
Congressman Kennedy strongly in
favor OF the retention OF the clock
change in April. and tried to get
many other people to do the same.
"A lot of them favor the extra day
light law, but not enough to take the
trouble to send telegram" he said.
There is a report that the move
ment for repeal of the law passed
by congress last year is fostered by
farmers, many of whom have writ
ten and spoken against it. They
have to work by the sun, and to
have the rest of the communities
working by an artificial time an hour
different makes them a lot of bother.
But the longer evenings appeal to
motorists and the people in town
who work in gardens

PICKED UP AT
PEkIN, ILLINOIS
Earl Ray, Who Climbed Out OF
Train Window at Pickering,
Iowa, Will Go Back
to Prison.

Chief Henneman left this afternoon
for Pekin, Illinois, where the sheriff
of Peoria county has Earl Ray in
custody.
He is the boy who climbed out OF
coach window while being taken
to Eldora week or so ago, when
the railroad men watched his escape
and told Chief Henneman about 1t
long after the train was miles away.
The sheriff of Pekin had been look
ing for Earl Ray for job over there
last summer, but wired here and
was told to hold him until the Keo-
kuk chief of police can get there.
The boy has violated his parole from
the Illinois reform school, is under
sentence to the Iowa reform school,
and seems to be wanted in Pekin and
elsewhere. Chief Henneman will
either bring him back to Eldora, or
turn him over to one Of the others
who will see that he gets what Is
coming to him.
Although she has been here, and
was not known to have left Keokulr.
at was discovered this morning that
the boys mother is in Pekin, having
evidently gone there to meet him. or
to visit another son who lives there.

COLD TONIGHT
Weather Bureau Predicts a Cold
Wave Which Means Lowest
Temperature For Many
WcekS.

Fair tonight and Saturday, with a
cold wave tonight, is the cheering
intelligence promulgated by the
weather bureau here after stating
that the thermometer was standing
at 20 above zero.
cold wave being drop of at
least twenty degrees, that means that
the mercury will be near the zero
line by tomorrow.
This morning the Thermometer
dropped from 40 to 81 degrees by
little after o'clock, and couple OF
hours later had gone down to % de-
grees above zero. The rain during
the night turned to snow and then
to sleet, and by noon a very good
Imitation of little blizzard was on.
1t all comes from the state where
the Nonpartisan league flourishes.
At Bismarck last night it was 20 be-
low zero, and 1t was 16 below at
Huron, as well as at Miles City,
Mont. Huron reported IA below and
North Platte had 10 below before
the crest of the cold wave hit her.
Tomorrow March comes in like q

birds on the Atterburg farm are well
sheltered in the houses built for
them and seemingly sure that 1t
