The Episcopal Sunday school Picnic.

The teachers and scholars of the
Episcopal Sunday schso, held their
annual picnic yesterday. About one
hundred and fifty or two hundred, in
Siler's omnibuser, transfer wagons,
and other vehicles, repaired to beau
tiful grove about three miles west OF

lightful merry-making. Music and
dancing lent their charms to the en-
tertainment, and The little folks made
most of their holiday in romping,
swinging, playing, and the many
sports that children have delights in.
1t was II most pleasant affair, and as
the little folks returned home, tired
and weary from their days sport, they
presented n picture that recalled many
u similar scene in the life of those who
witnessed it.

Lost His Place,

Capt McKown, deputy post master in
this city, reported to Capt. James E.
White, U, S. Superintendent of Railway
Mail Service, at Chicago, the facts as to the
carelessness of the railway clerk, Morgan,
mentioned in yesterdays ARGUS, and this
morning an order was issued by Capt.
White putting another man in his place.
Men who are hired by the government to
attend to a public duty, must give their
careful and undivided attention to the per-
Torrance of their duties. 1t isn't safe to
do any other way. The public interests
are imperative and the people won't stand
any nonsence in their hired men.

A worthy Engineer Appreciated.

Engineer John W. Gray, of the Rock
ford road, who held the throttle bar on the
recent excursion to St, Louis, lost his hat
while the train was running at the rate of
mile minute. To-day Mr., Walker, of
Walker & Dodge, the popular Star Block
merchant tailors, of this city, presented
him with a new one worth SIS. as &C evil
dence of the appreciation of The engin-
GERS efforts to please and provide for the
comfort of the excursionists
And when the excursion, party reached
Moline, on its return, Mr.. Gray
was presented by DR.. Gregg with hand
some sum, contributed by the passengers,
who took this means of testitying to his
worth as man and his uniform courtesy
TO those comprising the excursion.
Gray is man who knows how to ap-
preciate testimonials of this sort, and will
not soon forget the generosity and kind
ness of those who voluntarily showed him
this marked token Of confidence and es-
TEEN.

aFor the senefit Of the church.n

We hear that some Of the friends of Mr.
Browne think it was hardly fair for the
members Of the church to do quite as
much vigorous repeating" for Davis as
was done by them to help up his vote; but
they ought not to have any such feeling,
for the reason that all these church festiv-
ais are for the purpose of getting money,
and in order to get money, or, in other
words, in order to keep up the fight the
under dog must be helped. The voting is
not always an indication Of public seuti
ment-it is an indication of cash, of who is
willing to do the most repeating" for
the benefit of the church. No well-inform-
ed person expects to escape being swindled
at church fair or festival, and the only
consoling thought about the whole bust
ness is that-it is for the benefit of the
church, That's about all The satisfaction
the swiudled party can get out of it.

A Brakeman Seriously Injured,

Last Wednesday afternoon brakeman
on the Peoria, named G. A. Demsey, was
standing on top of his caboose at. the vii
lage of Lafayette, watching passenger
train pass. The engine attached to his
train was switching, and had just thrown
two cars on the track on which the caboose
was standing. They struck the car sud
denly, and Demsey was thrown off the
caboose, falling upon his left side and re-
ceiving injuries from which, it is thought,
he will not recover. lie was taken to
Galva, where he still remains. He was a
young man and we'll liked On the road.

Phil Helms Patent Car Couple

The excursion train to St. Louis was
equipped with Phil. Helms patent ball and
socket car coupler and patent friction
plates, and proved itself the best and most
perfect and economical, and only reliable
automatic car coupler in existence. One
run of nine miles was made in eleven
minutes, during which the coaches did

coupler never once showed disposition to

Another Insane Case,

Audreas or Herman Wilt, man who
has been an inmate of our poor house for
the last FIVE or six months, was, on Thurs
day, brought to this city by Deputy Shcr-
itf Silvis, and, after the county court had
returned from its spree to st. Louis, the
man was taken before his honora and a
jury, and adjudged fit subject for the in
sane asylum. He was taken to Jackson
vile this friday morning by Deputy
Sheriff Silvis, via the Rockford road.

A Little Game that Didn't Work.

Now was it nice-in nice taste, showing
such sensitive nature in Alderman
Carse to ring his political hatred against
Browne Of the Buford Plcw Works, among
the St, Louis excursionists by trying to
collect money to vote for Alderman Davis
at the United Presbyterian Church Fes-
tival last evening. Carse had seen how
liberal the excursionists were 10 giving
money for testimonials so he went lodging
around the cars to get money to vote for
Davis. Was it because Davis belongs to
his ring in the City Council, or because
Mr. Brown has, Cd several occasions, seen
proper to cast his political influence con
trary to Carse's instructions? The 1900
cast for Browne ought to convince the
little Water Board clique that their
strength, outside tie City Council, has
been oyerestiIhated.
