WILL ALL BE A BOOST FOB TAFT Meeting Called for Tomorrow, When Delegates to that Des -Aloises Meeting Are Expected .... to Be Yarned. . . , . . . - .....( Notwithstanding the fact that Roose velt has reconsidered hla determination to coma to Iowa and engineer hla party convention at Des Molnea next Wednes day, the work of organising the counties ot.the state has. not been abandoned. The Pottawattamie moose herd la to congregate at the" county cojirt tomor row, afternoon and select delegates to the Des Molnea gathering. It la also part ot the program ; now to Select the county ticket, but thia may not be car ried through to its finality. The fact, however, la confidently, announced that a ticket will be placed in the field. ' There does not appear to be any reg ularly constituted head of the third party movement here at the present time, and It Is expected that the meet ing Saturday will develop the man and the men. The gathering tomorrow Is to bo an open, informal sort of an affair. Bull moose representatives from vari ous parts of the county are expected to be present, and some outside man will be chosen as temporary chairman. Some of the candidates on the third party ticket have already announced themselves, and an earnest, still hunt Is being prosecuted to find others. A number of the republican candidates who failed to secure nomination at the primaries have been solicited to join the moose movement, particularly candi dates for members of the ' Board ot County Supervisors. Among these are Elmer E. MInnick and Colonel W. F. Baker. Both have peremptorily declined. Attempts to sound Cqlohel Baker in ad vance ot the open proposal ted to the declaration that he would feel Inclined to kick any person who came to htm with such a proposal., MInnick was lesa politic, but equally emphatic In his dec lination. - . , Says it . Helps Taf t. "I think If the so-called progressives, who dominated the republican state con vention, had planned for six months to advance the interests of President Taft In Iowa they could not have hit upon a better scheme to assure the state to him In November," said Colonel Baker yes terday. "Governor Carroll simply played with the managers of that convention and made them help President Taft more by declining to endorse hlra than they would if they had adopted the strongest favorable declarations. Taft will carry Iowa by the old time republican ma jorities, but the state may go demo cratic. "Under the present conditions Potta wattamie Is pretty certain to go largely democratic, due to the action of the al leged republican county convention.- The Board of County Supervisors will un doubtedly be democratic. The manipula tion of the convention . that gave : the nomination to Darrlngton, the low man at the primaries, will be one of the con tributing causes. Darrlngton will un doubtedly be beaten. He is not even a republican, but has been a populist. Then, his well known antipathy to organ ized labor and the labor Interests In gen eral will take from him an of that sup port. - "Darrlngton has declared many time that . the hired men on the farms are 'getting twice too much, that present high wages 'gives them elevated Ideas and makes them want still more.' He has repeatedly declared his opposition to organized labor In discussions before the board. There are some good men on the republican ticket, but if any of them get through this fall it will be by the skin of their teeth." C. H. Leuch, who was defeated at the primaries for sheriff, has announced that he will Join the.' third party movement or run Independent .... , "Groneweg declared before the primary election that If he failed to get the nomi nation he would run Independent to beat me, and this forces me to do the same," said Leuch yesterday. "I believe, how ever, that I can be elected and J am going in to win." Colonel George W. Adams has also an nounced himself as a third party candi date for the legislature, and has declared that he has the names of a full list of candidates for all of the offices, and that the bull moose ticket will be strong enough to win in the county; SOMEONE "PIPES" RESCUE AND DARING ADVENTURE A thrilling story oi the brave rescue of three young women at Manawa Wednesday aftertioon by Sidney Bonham ot this city waa told in the Omaha Dally News last evening. Mr. Bonham was re puted to be the owner of the yacht Argo and was sailing the racer with three young women and two young men as passengers. It was told how he was skillfully handling the craft in the "storm" that was prevailing and riding the giant waves with daring skill, when the young men became frightened as he started to "luff." Their . frightened actions were graphically depicted as be ing responsible for overturning the boat and throwing the three young women Into the water In the middle of the lake where ' the depth was declared to be twenty feet. Bonham was credited with the feat of swimming to the drowning girls and taking them all on hla shoulder and battling his way against wind and wave until he reached the boat and at tached them to it., Then he called long and vainly for help that did not come, but kept all of his charges clinging to the overturned ship until it drifted to the shore. The story was written in Omaha and was a bit of pure Invention. There are no such Council ' Bluffs women as those named. The Argo was not in commission, but has been tied up for a week or more on the south side of the lake awaiting repairs to make it serviceable. Custodian Anderson of the Fish and Game club building and the Kursaal management say there were .not only no accidents on the lake during the week, but there was not a sailboat out Wednesday afternoon, neither was there any storm or wild wavea beating. Mr. Bonham also mod estly declares that he kner nothing of the incident until he saw it In the paper and also that he was not even at the lake Wednesday.

She said she received a telephone mes sage from Congress Park Just prior to the accident. She understood the mes sage to mean for her to hold passenger train No. 4 until a freight train had finished switching ahead. She tried to stop No. 4, but it ran, past the signal.

Ten minutes later the mall train No. 8, shot past the block set against it and crashed into train No. 2.
