WERE NARROWED
IN WARSAW
Fourteen Young Men of Burlington
Did Not Return to the Steam
boat in Time to Get Over
the Gang Plank.

When the G. w Hill brought down
900 excursionists from Burlington
and Fort Madison Sunday, she went
on down to Warsaw. The captain
told the passengers that nobody
could get off at Warsaw, as he was
starting back at once, but he yielded
to pressure and agreed to land for
twenty minutes and start away at
o'clock.
Several hundred people got off the
boat and started up the Main street
of the town in search of food and
other refreshments. The food was
plentiful in the form of pies and
sandwiches but the other refresh
ments were lacking because 1t was
Sunday and the bars were closed.
At o'clock by the captains time
the boat cast off. There was rush
of feet down the street and fourteen
Young men rounded the corner to
see the gang-plank being hoisted.
They sprinted and about six climbed
onto the plank, but the other end
tipped up and they were almost
thrown into the river. However,
they managed to jump to the shore,
after losing number of pies. They
rented two taxis at one dollar per
head and after several blow-outs and
broken spring managed to get to
Keckuk where they boarded the boat.
