STORM CHASES
A STEAMBOAT
But tho Speedy keokuk Beats
Down Lake keokuk and Lanos
at This Port Without
Trouble.

The chasing of the steamer keo-
Ink down Lake Keokuk by a Dig
storm last evening was a thrilling
exnerience for the passengers, al
though they were never in any dan
ger. ,,,.
The boat had full passenger list
of tourists, many from interior
towns. and they were badly scared,
while those more familiar with
found the scene inter-
esting.
The waves were Highland waves
on Lake Keosuk with the wind IN
the right quarter get ten or twelve
feet high at times. But they were
several miles astern OF the boat, al
though they kept following 1t down
the lake at about the same distance.
The Keokuk came down the lake
under full head Of steam and kept
the distance between 1t and the pur-
suing storm safe one. The dozen
minutes required to get through the
h,p lock was a handicap, but Captain
Mckenzie landed his boat at the
and landed his passengers
before any wind hit it.
Below the big dam there was not
much wind, anyhow, and the race
really ended when the Keokuk got
behind the breakwater and into the
forebay.

Eye: Owing to the consolidation OF
the Tribune and the Times, Ames now
has but one newspaper, and that is
probably sufficient for the town. AT
least until there Is awakened interest
in party politics to a degree that now
seems impossible. Newspapers have
ceased to be organs and are business
ventures with two principle objects in
view. The one is to get news and
circulate it and the other is to make
the paper pay. The day when paper
sacrificed its own interests In order
to serve few politicians seems to be
nassing or rather to have passed.
