f|)WN TO Be MOVED
OUT Of FLOOD AREA
Columbus, KY, Said to Have
Been Proposed as Site
of National Capital.

Already partly destroyed by the
Mississippi flood. the historic town
OF Columbus. KY, said to have been
proposed once as a site for the Ma
tional Capital, is going to be en-
tirely dismantled and removed to a
high bluff half mile back from the
river.
Decision to move the town was an
nounced here yesterday by the Amer
lean Red Cross, after several weeks
-, of investigation. The operation will
cost thousands Of dollars. but is
deemed necessary to save the town
from being wholly swept into the
river.
A strip of the town more than 200
feet wide has been eaten away by
the swift current within the past few
months and the remainder is in i'm
minent danger of destruction. Army
engineers at first estimated it would
cost thousands of dollars, but is
moving project, but with revision of
the plans to include removal only
of residential structures the PROPOSE
ton became feasible economically.
Report Showed Condition.
Secretary Hoover and Vice Chair
man Fieser of the Red Cross became
interested in the plight of the little
Kentucky community upon receipt
in ST Louis, several weeks ago, of
report from Marion Rust, Red Cross
representative in Columbus, showing
the extent Of damage there from the
flood.
Rust told the Secretary that in
habitants of Columbus claim their
town occupied a site selected by
Thomas jefferson as new seat OF
government. Secretary Hoover eX-
pressed surprise at this statement,
and careful search of available rec
ords since has failed to reveal any
verifcation of the claim.
Rust explained that the story was
to the effect that a group of Ken
tuckians argued that the Capital
SHOULD be moved westward, asserting
that the country was pushing in that
direction and that later the center OF
national activity would be along the
Mississippi River. Jefferson laid the
city out and a town was built on the
site. Then came the problem of
name, and finally it was decided to
honor the memory of Americas dis
coverer.
Center of Civil War Activity.
During the Civil War Columbus
was regarded as the upper key to the
Mississippi River Notifications of the
Confederate Army, and it was at this
point, Mr.. Rust pointed out, that the
Southern general, Pillow, attempted
to string a great steel chain across
the Mississippi as a barrier to Union
gunboats. In the rocky side OF the
bluff, at the rear of the town, is
large anchor, used in this futile coup.
The chain is said to have broken OF
its own weight. The town was occu-
pied by the Union troops early in the
war, and Gen. Grant is said to have
made his headquarters there for u
short time.
The population before the recent
flood was scarcely more than 1000
persons, many of whom have since
been forced to seek aid from the Red
Cross. If the original plans are car
ried out, the houses will be split into !
sections and carted up the hill to the |
new site on the bluff. Red Cross Off |
Gals have gone TO Columbus to make |
arrangements for the wholesale NOV
ing undertaking.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Monday, July Is.

Threatening aspects seem to govern
tomorrow, according to astrology. 1t
Is wise to begin the week cautiously.
Women are held to be especially
affected by the sinister influences and
they should assume a positive atti-
tude Of moral strength.
The sway is supposed to encourage
coquetry and greed, making for heart
aches and disappointments.
If the seers are to be believed
women are reaching a point in civic
development where they must assume
responsibilities that are serious.
Love affairs are not well directed
while this configuration prevails, for
it inclines to silly sentimentality and
foolish filtration.
Many persons past middle age will
court and marry this year, and the
Summer will be a period of universal
interest in affairs of the heart, the
seers prophesy.
Astrologers point out that whenever
the world is near any sort of up
heaval, men and women assume new
concern regarding each other.
This is not an suspicious rule for
promoters or others who must ap-
proach persons of wealth or power of
any sort.
Tomorrow is read as rather an I'M
lucky day for those who seek any
sort Of employment and particularly
disappointing to women.
The wise will delay important
matters until there is a more favor
able planetary government.
Extreme danger to rulers in Europe
IS prognosticated for the Summer
period by London astrologers.
War for Great Britain appears
certainty before the end of the year
for ominous signs attended the luna
ton for this month.
Persons whose birth date it is
should be careful of all writings this
year, which may bring many yexa.
tons.
Children born on that day may be
too easily influenced for their own
good.

BUSINESS AT
BISMARCK P.0.
SETS RECORD
Total Receipts For First Three
Quarters $4,000 Larger
Than Last Year

Receipts of the Bismarck post.
office for the nine months ending
September 80 are $156,797.1S, as
compared to $139,717.88 for the first
nine months of 1926, it was an
nounced today by Oliver Lundquist,
postmaster.
This represents an increase Of
$17,079.30 over the first three quar-
ters Of last year, one Of the largest
increases on record at the postofficc
here.
If receipts are normal during the
remaining three months of the year,
it was expected that the total for
the year would be approximately
$200,OO0.00, or slightly over. This
would be an increase over the 1926
total of approximately $4,000.
Although figures for other post
offices for the three quarters have
not yet been given out, it is be-
lieved that the Bismarck postoffice
still holds it's rank as the second
largest in the state.
If the total receipts should go
over 100000, it would mean that
the postoffice would be advanced a
step in rank. 1t is now ranked in
the class which has receipts be-
tween $150,000 and 100000.

REBELS MAY BE
ATTEMPTING TO
REACH COAST
Federal Troops Still Pursuing
Generals Gomez and Almada
Through Mountains

Mexico City, Oct. II. = (AP) -
Pursued through the wild mountain
country of western Vera Cruz, the
rebel generals, Arnulfo Gomez and
Hector Almada, today were believed
to be attempting to reach the coast,
where passage in Il fishing boat or
two small craft would put them be-
yond the reach of the government.
Hot on their trail were scouting
parties of federal troops under COM
mand of General Gonzalo Escobar,
who on Monday reported that he
had dispersed the rebel forces and
captured the main body, leaving
Gomez and Almada with only about
100 followers.
A dozen small groups, scattered
in every direction, were declared by
the government to be all that was
left of the rebel column, which it is
stated never exceeded 1000 men.
Vera Cruz dispatches say the main
group captured by the government
troops numbered more than $50 and
that all were from the units which
marched out of the Mexico City
garrison barracks the night of Octo-
Der 2.
Trains Are Guarded
To guard against the activities of
bandits attempting to take advan-
tage of the situation, the govern
ment has ordered an escort of SOL
liers for freight and passenger
trains.
Taking cognizance Of reports that
the government had manufactured a
case of treason against Gomez and
General Francisco Serrano, who was
recently executed, President Gales
has issued statement tracing the
history of the movement.
He declared he was aware as early
as August that the revolt was being
planned; that he sought to dissuade
General Serrano from the attempt
and that he refrained from action
only because of his hope that the
plotters would abandon their enter
prise.
'In compliance with their duty"
he said, numerous army command
ers who were invited to rebel in
formed ME thereof, which, with the
secret service, afforded me from the
beginning full knowledge Of the con-
spiracy."

BE Speaker at Luncheon
Meeting of Local Service
Clubs

Plans for entertainment of Major
General c. =. Summerall, chief of
| staff, u. S. army, who will visit
Bismarck October 10 are now being
formulated.
General Summerall will arrive
from the west at o.5S in the morn
