At the meeting of the National Hortl
cultural congress last night Charlea A.
Beno, president of the Commercial club
and chairman of the committee to which
was assigned the matter of securing a
building In which to hold the fruit ezhi
bltion next December, stated that he still
had hopes of securing the Patton prop
erty on North Main street. The Com
mercial club, Mr. Beno said, would I
th. raannnsllitm V of
sume trie responsibility ot
svcurlng
I building for the horticultural show. This
assurance from the president of the Com
mercial club proved moet welcome and
the officers of the Horticultural congress
now feel that they can safely go ahead
with the preparations for the big show
to be held In December.
Mr. Beno stated that the matter of or
ganlsing a separate company to purchase
the Patton property would be taken up
by him at the meeting of the executive
committee of the Commercial club Mon
day, at which time a committee would
be named to canvass the business men of
the city for subscriptions. George Hamil
ton, J. C. Hollenbeck and other business
men who were present at last night'
meeting were of the opinion that there
would be no difficulty In raising the ill
000 asked for the North Main street prop
erty. A report from this committee will
be made at the meeting of tha Horticul
tural congress next Thursday evening, at
which time Mr. Beno said he believed the
matter of a building for the fruit show
could be definitely disposed of.
The question of securing a competent
man to act as superintendent of arrange
ments for the proposed exhibition was
taken up. It was suggested that the
services of W. B. R-eed, late secretary of
the Commercial club, be engaged to act
In this capacity, but as he waa out of
tha city yesterday tt could not be learned
last night if he would be. willing lo un'
dertake the work. In the event of Brooks
Reed not wishing to undertake the work.
President Hesa was authorised to secure
th service of Freeman L. Reed, former
clerk of the district court, who, H was
stated, would be willing to undertake th
work provided tha compeasatlon '
commensurate. It was suggested to pay
a salary of 1100 a month, but this matter
waa left open until" President He ascer
tained whom ho could secure.

INVESTIGATING WATER PI..wT

la aa Hla Work.
Benexette Williams, the expert hydraulic
engineer of Chicago, employed by the Coun
cil Bluffs City Water 'Works company at
th Instance of the stockholders to look
over the plant and city, and suggest what
Is necessary to bring th system up to date
and to furnish water to such districts nw
without service, arrived here yesterday
morning.
Mr. Williams shortly after his arrival
commenced hi work of Investigation, and
spent the day in company with Manager
E. W. Hart In looking over the reservoirs
and ptimplng stations and obtaining a gen
eral idea of the present extent and condi
tion of the plant.
'I am here for the purpose of Invest igat-
mg and reporting to the water company
what Is necessary to put Its plant into con
dition to supply the needs of the city, to
furnish good water and plenty of It. My
Investigation probably will occupy several
days," said Mr. Williams.
Regarding the use of a clarifying system,
which was suggested by Attorney Bruce of
New York at the time of his recent visit
to thl city with the proposition from the
stockholders of the company, and which
It wss thought by some might be danger
ous to health. Mr. Williams said: "It is
next to impossible without clarifying to
remove th coloring matter which is In a
stat of suspension in minute particle in
such water a that of the Missouri river.
A settling process is insufficient In such a
case. While there may be a bare possi
bility of Injury to health from the use of
a clarifying system. I believe there Is not
much In this objection except where the
work 1 carelessly done and proper neu
tralization does not take place. I do not
advocate any particular clarifying process.
Different processes are proper for different
place or at different time."

of the reunited organisation, has Indicated
that she will not accept a re-election and
this may lead to trouble again. When the

over the question of whether or not the
Organisation would mix in partisan politics.
the' organization spilt in Iowa also as well
aa other ststes. A year or so ago the war
ring factions were able to reunite In this
stste. and Mrs. Dunham, who had been
the president of th partisan' branch, was
elected president.
With the announcement of Mrs. Dun
ham's determination, other candidates ar
now flocking into th field. Mrs. Ann
Edworthy of this city, who wm one of
the non-partisans, and Mrs. Ida B. Wise
who was a partisan, are both In the field
aa candidates for president. Mrs. Carhart
of Cedar Rapids, alao a partisan, is a
candidate, also.
Some are predicting that the society will
not be able to unite on another president.
and that the question that originally di
vided the society will again divide It. The

TAKING CARE OF THE SHOES
They Re aire Mara Mare Atteatlaa
la W la tea Tha a They Da
la Sasasser.
Never put shoes In closets or In a shoe
bag Immediately after taking them off.
They need plenty of sun and air. Un
fasten them, turn over the tops, pull out
the tongue and expose the Inaide of th
shoe to the elemehta
They should stsnd an hour or two in
this way before the trees are put In and
the shoes put away. In truth, many wo
men arwaya keep their shoe on the
window sill during th summer time.
After wearing them on a long, hot day
or on a trip where there haa been no ehanc
to bathe th feet and Chang th stockings.
the Inside of th shoes should be sponged
out with amorJa and water. This takes
out all unpleasant odor, removes the mois
ture and quickly evaporate.
No matter how small the bank account
the allowance for clothe should be so
arranged that more shoes are bought In
summer than winter. Four pair are neces
sary and six are not too many. They need
rot b new, but they r'.ould he worth wear
ing. It I not possible to wesr on pair of
shoes a whole day In the warm season
without th shoes sqon becoming objec
tions bl.
Now that canvas shoes in white and
colors ar Inexpensive there Is Tjo reason
why a woman shouldn't Indulge In two
pairs for everyday wear and save th
more expensive shoes for public occa
sion. The canvas shoes are poruf and do not
become as unpleasant on th hot day
aa leather, which haa not an agreeable
odor at the best.
It 1 always mors comforting to th feet
to be encased in any stockings rather
than black one during th summer. Th
black dye Is heating and more apt to af
fect the skin.
Whit I the choice, but a constant sup
ply of white stockings means a good deal
of laundering. Possibly brown and bright
navy blue ar tha best choice.
Above all aee that th defect In th
shoe ar quickly attended to when they
ar worn aurlng the Irritating season. A
heel that I run down, button that ar
too tight, a vamp that la too long, ar
all source of extremely uncomfortable
foot troubles.
They should b attended to on th day
they ar discovered. It la not an Idle
jest that a shoe which hurt can ruin one's
whole outlook on life and make one feel
111 all over.

That certain bravery f spirit In William
Nason. a farmer lad from Gren Bay. which
looked calmly on a Journey from which no
man returns, curiously enough could not
harbor th thought that what was mortal
of him should be lost and neglected at th
bottom of the Klnnicklnnlc river oa Lak
Michigan.
Fred Miller and George Parsons saw
Nason leap Into th Kinniekinatc rtver at
the foot of South Pierce street, Milwaukee.
Running towsrd the liver bank, they saw
th man struggling In th water, and Mil
ler,' who is an expert swimmer, leaped Into
the river, grasping th drowning man when
he cam up for th second ttm. Parsons,
In th meantime, had found a long pol.
which he held out to Miller, and hi assist
ants had begun their work of resuscitating
the half-drowned man when they noticed .
a string tied to his right foot. Miller
pulled on the string, snd noticed a bottl
floating on th river which moved toward
th shore.
The bottle was attached to th string
which wss nearly thirty feet long and in
It waa a slip of paper which bore th me-
sage:
"I am at the othernd ot thla string -William

said, "and I hav been in tb city for two
days, wslking the street and searching for
a job. I was without money and I was
hungry. I was discouraged, and thought f
had given myself a chance at moat every

was a failure, so I thought I might a welt
end It all.
"But I didn't like to hav th folks at
