Collision,

There came very near being serious
accident Wednesday. on the Rock Island
4 Peoria railroad, at Lafayette, a station
about 81 miles from Peoria. Lafayette is
the meeting point for the Cincinnati ex-
press and the lightning express, which
leaves this city at 6:l0 a. m The Cincin.
natl express gets to Lafayette ahead OF
the fast train and then waits Gu side
track. They were backing up to the
sdetrack yesterday and the fast train
was coming into the station at pretty
lively rate. aud, as is the custom. the ep-
gineer runs nearly into the station before
applying the air brakes, but when he put
on the air yesterday it failed TO do its
work, and consequently both engines came
together with crash, damaging both of
them considerably. Luckily nobody was
hurt. Freight engines had to be substi-
tutcd for the regular ones. and after four
hours delay the Peoria train came in to
this city.

EaverIys s Colored Minssrsls

The performance of this troupe at Har-
per's Theatre on Wednesday evening was
up to the standard of expectation, and q
fair house greeted them. There is no very
important change since We last saw them,
though some few alterations have been
made in the programme and they are pro
badly an Improvement. The humorous
business predominates and the old favor
ties kersands aud Mcintosh, have the
N ost to sustain in that line and they do il
well, as the laughter aud applause testified
The principal tenor w, King is very good
and won great favor. Wm. Allen the jig
dancer, also came 10 for share of ap-
plause. The violiuist Ds Briudis. said to
be the best colored performer oh that
instrument before the public, is deserving
of high encomiums. The Bohee brothers
did their work well, and Dick Little the
basso, sang excelently. The entire per-
formance was first class aud the reputation
already earned was fully sustained.

The Mighty Dollar.


The sale of seats for the comedy of the
Mighty Dollar" to be given a, Harper's
Theatre tomorrow, Friday, evening
is progressing we'll, and there is every
reason to believe that an audience both in
number and tone will be present on the
occasion, such as will show Rock Island to
good advantage, aud evidence the esteem
in which Mr.. aud Mrs, Florence are held
by an appreciative and refined people.
The New York Times. has the following
excellent remarks:
''The Mighty Dollar with Mr.. and
Mrs. w. j. Florence as the chief attrac
tions, has been placed in Nav York $50
tunes, with great success at our city thea
tres. Since then these deservediy popular
artists have travelled far and with marked
success wherever the play was produced
1t is a wholesome thing in these days of
corrupt rings and bogus patriots and fam
| ing appeals to thu American eagle in sup
por, of selfish ends to have such a picture
| before US as the Hon. Bardwell Slote,
member from the Cohosh District. There
| are many Slotes in our conventions; there
was Slote IN our Forty second Congress.
We know him in our Legislatures. Florence
enters into all he does with heart and soul.
| His makeup is admirable. His comic
powers irresistible. If there could be any,
thing more enjoyable and amusing than
| Mr.. Florence as the Member from the
| 'Uohosh District, 1t is Mrs. Florence as
Mrs. Gi!fory. who has travelled abroad
| aud who is iulI of bad French and nom
appropriate English. The quaintness aud
| drollery Of her voice and actions put her
in the best of humor with her audiences.
Mrs. Florence has shown genuine humor.
putting to shame vapid exhibitions of bur-
lesquers. and proving by her acting that
broadness and vulgarity need have no
! place in legitimate comic efforts. Mrs
| GiIhory is a rich. buxom widow and a lob
byist, and Mrs. Florence renders the viv-
acity and igeniousness of the part with
great spirit aud artistic trutbfulness. The
exquisite costumes of Mrs Florence de-
serve recognition for their remarkable
richness and elegance. We have DO fear
| for the success of the Florences, for tt Q
favor which they have been received
| throughout the entire country. aud for
over $50 nights in this city. will be renew
ed 'by large majority.

q Sad Affair.

On Wednesday afternoon David j., a
little three years old son of Andrew Han.
nah, of Moline, was accidentally drowned.
The circumstances as nearly as ca be
learned are as follows: Tao little fellow
while playing near a cistern in house
near his home fell in and was drowned.
The cistern was covered with o piece of
carpet, and the unfortunate little one, in
his childish play, not knowing what he was
doing. stepped on the carpet. and fell
through and was drowned. The accident
must have happened about o'clock. as
shortly before that time be was at home,
and his mother with him. When he was
missed, search was at once instituted by
neigh5ors and friends and only by accident
was the little fellows fate discovered
There was sorrow in the household when
it was found that the bright little child,
whose smile and innocent WAYS made
undiscovered country where earthly sor-
lows are unknown. 1t il sad affair and
no one can possibly be blamed. 1t was
one of those unforeseen accidents which
none but the Almighty can forestall. In
their bereavement, the grief stricken
parents have the sympathy of the entire
community. a coroner's inquest was
held this morning and verdict rendered
in accordance with the facts. Due notice
OF the funeral will appear in The ARGUS.

The Striking Miners.

The trouble arising out OF the strikes OF
miners in some of our coal bearing dis
tricts, has been more or less prominent {
during the past few days. and doubts have
been expressed at to the ultimate RESULTS
People will take various views of such
matters and some will maintain that one
side is right, while others will uphold the
action of the other, Our authorities have
been active and Sheriff Perkins has had
an arduous task to perform which he has
grappled with successfully. Comment as
to the steps in progress have been avoid
ed, that is except in a general way, as
premature remarks frequently defeat the
| ends of justice and provoke untimely
criticism. The actual state of affairs at
Hampton and Rapids City, have already
been fully explained and the present posi-
ton of affairs, has followed as too COM
mon, but not necessary result. It cannot
be admitted for one moment that the coal
operators are to be forced into complain ce
with the demands of the miners, and such
a thing as intimidation and overt acts on
the part vi Tue ldAtCt Oah0OO w PSL nltttOo
| in a com munity where law and order is
supreme. The case is doubtless hard on
the men and their families, but the pres
cct status of affairs, might have been fore
seen by them if they had only looked at
IL e matter in a calm and reasonable light.
It is satisfactory to know that harshness
or undue severity, has not characterized
any of the actions of The mining proprie-
tors, but the engaging of others to supply
the places of the dissatisfied, has been
forced upon them, and the miners might
have known that sooner or later they
would-unless willing TO come to reasona
bic terms-have to give place to those
willing to work. 1t is only too probable
that the men have been badly advised by
leaders in their own class, and it is much
to be regretted that they occupy their
present unfortunate position; but as they
have taken their present stand they must
abide tho consequences. The public have
viewed the matter leniently, and the
authorities have only acted as the circum-
stances have demanded and will be upheld
by all dispassionate and right minded peo-
pie.
