A break in the high line about six
miles from Mt. Ayr severed the con-
nection between the power plant at
Centerville and the motors in the
,Record-News office Tuesday night
about ten o'clock and the power was
off until about $3.50 Wednesday
afternoon. Heretofore, until the
night of the fire which put the local
power plant out of commission, de-
lays have been short, but the con-
dition of the roads and difficulty in
locating the trouble extended the
of evaporation. Manager Brown
and his assistants were on the trail
of the trouble early Wednesday
morning and about six miles out
found the wire broken. At the foot
Of the electric light pole near where
the break was lay cat-dead. How
the cat got there is not known, but
at any rate it was there and the wire
was severed, and the delay resulted.

More than IS years ago, Andrew. J.
Seaman was born at Keokuk. In his
early manhood he located at Council
Bluffs where he laid the foundation
for his fortune. Here he was to have
been married but he fell out. with
his fiance and Immediately took up
his residence in Omaha. He lived
there for SIS years as the stlngest
man in America Upon his death
bed he told the nurse not to go to
the expense of buying coffin as
plain pine box was plenty good
enough. He left an estate variously
estimated at from 100000 to
$1,OOO,OOO. The bridge fare across
the Missouri river is 10 cents and
this kept him from ever returning
to his old haunts at Council Bluffs.
He would walk any distance rather
than spend a cent. Some years ago
he wanted to- go to Denver. The
railroad fare was $3.50. But the
distance was only 600 miles. So Sea-
man walked the 900 miles rather
than pay out the $3.50. And hav-
ing completed his business in Den
yer the old man turned around and
walked back home, another 600
miles but saved $35 by doing it.
