QUINCY MASON
NOT OUR MASON
Fred Mason, of Plymouth and keo-
kuk and Otherwise, Turns Out
to Be Working in
Burlington.

The interesting question as to the
identity of the Mason in Jail in Quin-
cy for the murder Of an old pawn
broker there with the Mason who
was once prominent here as chick
en- thief, and well known IN the same
circles around Plymouth, H., has
been settled in the negative.
There is some similarity in the
looks of the two men, and on being
shown a photograph of the Quincy
prisoner, two Keokuk police court
experts said it was our Mason, and
two others were equally sure 1t was
not
But The Gate City has located our
Masdn working in Burlington at this
time, and demonstrated that he is
not the Quincy Mason.

Measuring Rainfall,

The quantity Of rain which falls is
measured by rain-gauges or pluvio-
meters, which are variously construct
ed. One of the best is that known as
Symon's rain-gauge. consisting of a
funnel-shaped receiving vessel to catch
the rain, and glass measure of much
smaller diameter to measure it. To
simplify calculation, the internal area
of the measure is usually one tenth
that of the mouth of the funnel.

the neighboring landowners. Local
labor will be employed as far as pos
sible. The interests of the company
are estimated at 100000 and one
citizen of Plains states that the week
ly payroll will probably be $4,000.
Mr. Burgin, who has been in
Plains for some time in the lumber
business has sold out to the Johnson,

ficient lumber is available in the COM
munity to keep the mills here for
ten or fifteen years.
