Ellen Rasmussen
Is Some Climber
Ellon Haamussen, 4 year old, climbed
up on of the steel girders that support
the hugs tank for the hill service water
system, and although she reached a
height of more than seventy-five feet,
she made the trip up and down without
any assistance and purely upon her own
Initiative. Her parents dscovered her at
the dlisy height, when they heard her
railing down to her 3-year-old brother
not to come up. The. baby boy had
climbed mora than ten feet up the girder
before his slater noticed him.
The Kasmiissen home la near the. foot
of the water tower and the children of
the neighborhood . use the loo-foot circu
lar plat of the tower site as a Play
ground. The seveuty-ftve-foot girder on
the northwest side of the tower has been
provided with cross pieces ot steel to
form a ladder for employee to reach
the platform at the top ujon which the
tanks stsnds. The ladder does not start
tt the. ground, but begins ten feet up
the side of the girder. The girl
aent up the perpendicular ladder to the
lop. When the father saw her he was
t'n-.ost paralysed with fright, but spoke
ralmly to the child, urging her to come
Sown the ladder and help her little
brother reach the ground.
' All right, papa. I'm coming,' cam the
glii-llks voice. The father stood below,
ready to attempt to catch the children
If either fell. The little 1-year-old boy
twined bis fat short legs about the girder
and came slowly down, until within
reach of the arms of the parent, all the
time calmly encouraging the girl With
out a misstep she descended with perfect
composure.
Mrs. Raamuaaen stood watching th
spectacle, while heart scarcely beat.
The belief of the parents I that the
1-year-old boy would have gone to the
op of the ladder and his alster would
save reached the rery top of th tower,

Th new system gives a widely varying

changes In the pressure.
At Pomona street and Park avenue the

The new high service system has cost
about 138,000 up to the prcae.nt time. It
has all been planned and executed by
Chairman Jensen of the Water board

doubled and th capacity of th entire
plant has been nearly trebled. .

STANDS BY HONOR SYSTEM
Warden Sanders of Fort Madiion
Sayi Hit Belief in Great Body
of Convicts Unshaken.
SUCCESSFUL IN MOST CASES
tFrom a Staff Correspondent.)
IF3 MOINKS, la.. Oct. 1 (Special
Telegram ) The honor system as prac
tised at the state penitentiary I not go
ing to be aholHhod, according to Warden
Banders. While a number of convicts
have recently made their get-away from
camps established at different state In
stitutions Mr. Sunder my that hi faith
In the system I not at all shaken.
In connection with It Mr. Panders said:
"Why should it be abolished? The sys
tem has proved a success at Fort Madison
and at a number of other penal Institu
tions all over the country.
"Much a system shou:d not be dobe
amay with because of one or two fail
ures. It still holds In Illinois, where
thor haa been more serious trouble than
we have had. I believe that In a great
majority of cases the honor system Is a
great success.
"Right now I have over 800 men out at
different camps. There have been a few
escapes, but how often In a man's word
broken outside of prison?"
With favorable, weather fO per cent of
the early planted com In this state-will
be out of the way of frost by October
11, according to this week's estimate of
th weather and crop bureau. But this
I not half of the crop because so much
of It waa planted late. Considerable corn
la now being cut and put In the silo. The
potato harvest has begun and It Is found
that many, tubers have rotted. Rapid
progress was made last week with fall
plowing and considerable wheat . was
sown but this week thus far has been .too
wet for plowing. The winter wheat
acreage will probably be short because It
hag been too wet for plowing and seeding
much of the time. Many of the fields
have been in no condition for seeding to
wheat. '
. Robert Abeles of flt Louis, owner of
the Atlantic-Southern railroad, yesterday
served notice on the Iowa Railroad com
mission that he will not comply with .the
commission's order to restore train serv
ice on the road. W. A. Fo lett of At
lantlo, an attorney representing Abeles.'
reached Des Moines yesterday. He talked
with Mr. Abeles over the long distance
telephone and the owner of the road In
structed the attorney to tell the commis
sion that he will refuse to resume opera
tions on the Atlantic-Southern because
the road will not pay operntlng expenses,
"We are ready to fight the matter 'tiut
In th courts," declared Mr. Follett. 'We
hav contended that the commission has
no authority and cannot compel a rail
road to operate a line which does not
pay. I do not believe there la a court
on earth that will force a company to
operate trains at a loss."

ON TO SUBMARINES AT LAST
WASHINGTON. Oct. 2. Great
Dr'taln has discovered and put into
effective operation means of combat
ing the submarine, which, according
to official reports to the United States
government, already have resulted in
a 1op.i estimated at between fifty and
seventy German submarines. The re
ports declare that the British admir
alty confidently believes it haa
crushed the German undersea ca ru

New methods of offense and de
fense that may revolutionize naval
warfare have been adopted, and high
trltlfih naval officers are of the opin
ion that unless the effectiveness of
the submarine is increased it will no
longer constitute the menace that it
has been to commerce arrd battle

A wording to the reports, destruction

the fiftieth underwater enemy. Reports
of th dinner' apparently were suppressed
By the censor in .accordance with Great
Britain's policy of keeping Germany in

been destroyed. .

useful in locating and following the trail
of submarines. They can detect one even
1 feet beneath the surface. It Is the
habit, the reports say. of the German
submarines to slip Into favorable posi
tion along the steamer lanes and lie on
the bottom for long periods, rising occa
sionally to the surface for observation
and other purposes.
Ilniv Work Is Done,
As the batteries ere not exhausted by
this method, the boats not being In mo
tion, only a very brief stay on the sur
face is neccrsary to renew the air sup
ply and take a-hurrlel observation. Un
dersea boats adopting thewe tact Is have
been most difficult to catch. Here the
aeroplane has shown Its great usefulness,
as the comparatively shallow water along
much of the British coast makes It pos
sible for tne aeioilnne operators to see
the ships lying on the bottom. The aero
plane notes the position and notifies the
nearest destroyer or patrol boat, which
speeds to the spot and waits for the sub
marine to rise.
