LOOK OUT FOR FIRE.-Mr. Mitchell
President Of the Water Board, requests us
TO say that citizens ought to exercise NM
sual care and watchfulness as to fires ms
quite number of the hydrants are frozen
and in the region where they are frozen
nothing can be done to put out FIRE, ex-
cept the use Of buckets of water from
wells if any wells can be found. There
are no engines, and how soon the water
will be entirely cut off they don't know.
In some cities where the Holly system has
been introduced they have drawn the wa
ter from the pipes and given up trying to
Keep up supply, owing to the fact that
the pipes were not laid deep enough. This
error seems to have been made in other
places as well as in ours. Mr. Mitcball
says they are trying the experiment of
heating the water by steam at the works
and he hopes that will save us. but if is
too soon to say whether it will or not He
says the people must watch their fires and
their buildings, if they would be secure
lie also says they are doing all thew
can to keep up a supply of water-thcy have
a large force of men at work and will
keep them at work and no effort will be
spared to keep up a supply Of water-but
he is earnest in urging extraordinary eau
ton on the part of the people. Con-
sidering the smallness of our city and the
great expense of the works, and the in
creased tax which will be imposed upon
the people for years, good many people
think Rock Island should have waited a
lew years before trying this expensive ex-

THE UNION MEETING, Sunday night,
was held in the Methodist Episcopal house.
The body Of the house was well filed and
the gallery partly filed The regular dis
course was by the Rev. Mr.. Reynolds, of
the United Presbyterian society. from the
story of the Prodigal Son. The subject
was not presented in a manner calculated
To awaken much interest, and we regretted
that lack Of liberality towards the lead
ing church Of the world caused the speaker
TO class Christian Rome with Pagan Rome
a very large and liberal charity towards
all Christians will probably succeed best
Towards the close of the meeting a spirited
exhortation was made by the Rev. Mr.
Mabie. The prayers were generally good.
and that Of Mr. f. W. Spencer was espe-
cially good, as it contained less of the
stump speech than is usually found in the
prayers Of clergymen The music was
fair, but not spirited, and was lacking in
sentiment, proper and cultivated exhibi.
ton OF which exercises such wonderful
power over human sensibilities
The meetings are 70 be continued. and
that for next Sunday evening viii be at the
Presbyterian church.
Mr.. Mabie gave notice that there would
be meetings every evening this week. ex-
c'pt Saturday evening. at the Baptist
church.
