ITEMS IN BRIEF.

Miss Clark, of the high school is i'm
proving IN health.
Geo. Wagner, of Rock Island is going
to build Moline an opera house. Eurekal
The boat club boys intend having gym
nasium. Something ought to be done to
get up their muscle for the next regatta.
John Cooper, the engineer who was hurt
on Saturday, at Deere s. Co.'S, has so far
recovered that he is able to be out again.
Munfoe Bros have turned out the latest
and neatest in the gig line. John Boyle
is the happy recipient.
The .Vangren affair still remains a pro-
found mystery, and Charlie Vangren may
be at the North Pole so far as any one in
Moline knows.
Mine Host Fenis, of the pest house, was
invited by the Board of Health to vacate
the premises, and he is making prepare
ations to do so.
John Deeres familiar face was seen on
the streets this morning for the first time
in many weeks, and it was welcome to his
many friends.
Theodore Raunner and Joseph King
took out saloon licenses yesterday, and de-
posted the necessary $3.50 apiece for the
ensuing six months.
There were 159 deaths in this city. from
the 1st Of May, 1881, until the list of May,
1882. MolSne has 10000 inhabitants, and
certainly the death rate is not alarming.
Moline is getting reputation for desert
ers. During the past week two husbands
have deserted their wives and one lover his
bethrothed.
The Sylvan boat club will give a calico
dance at Christy's hall one week from Fri
day night. 1t will be the last party of the
season, and doubtless will be well attend
ed.
The Cotton Combination after making a
half dozen dates have concluded to play
in Moline on the 9Th 9th and 10th of May
at Trims hall or opera house rather.
The vacant lot on the corner of Lynde
and Illinois street, is being surrounded by
bill boards, and the greatest circus on
earth win probably be advertised on them
soon.
4 rumor was current on the streets yes
terday that another Cooperative store
would be started Moline has one now,
but ii is probable that she could stand an
other.
There is some talk of another electric
light company being started in Moline. 1t
is to be hoped that something will be
started pretty soon, so as to furnish some
electric light. None has made its appear
ance to light up proud Moline, as yet.

The CultiUator and Country Gentle
man gives the relative value, quality
and character of the more common and
newer varieties of grapes under the fol-
lowing heads:
Early grapes -Moore's Early, Hart
ford, Lady, Early Dawn, Adirondack,
Worden, Massasoit, Telegraph.
Hardy f-bloods-Croton, Burnett,
Early Dawn, Senasqua, Salem, Wilder,
and the other Rogers hybrids.
High quality and character, with a
slight intermixture of exotic blood
Lady Washington, Brighton, Duchess.
OF fine quality, but poor growth-Eu-
melan, Rebecca, Walter, Adirondack.
sHardy and high flavor, but poor
bunch-Creveling
Nearly perfect, but not quite good
enough-Concord.
Prominent and promising white
grapes-Prentiss, Niagara, Duchess,
Poeklington. Red or darker-Jefferso
Vergennes.
Half-blood, tender, high quality-Al-
lens Hybrid.
Faultless, but rather small-Dela-
ware.
Hardy and productive, but not good
enough-Hartford, Martha
Excellent, but irregular in ripening-
Diana..
Coed Winter keepers-Diana, Cataw-
ba, Isabella and the late-ripening Rog-
ers' hybrids.
Grapes of high value or of high prom
ise-Lady Washington, Niagara, Dutch
ess, Brighton, Rochester, Prentiss, JEFF
ferson.
OF little value Blood's Black, James
vile, Champion, Charter Oak, Dracut
Amber.
Once in high repute, now nearly for
gotten-Israelfa, Northern Muscadine,
Union Village.
The Rural Neoo Yorker asserts that
there is no specific for grape rot, and as
it is a sporadic disease, all of the pre-
ventives are not infallible. The reme-
dies are free use of sulphur and diluted
carbolic acid, undertaking, protecting
by wind-breaks of evergreens, inclosing
the lunches of grapes, growing, with
paper bags. The best fertilizer to APP
ply to grape-vines is, unquestionably,
stable manure from the cow-barn.

Moline is slow but Rock Island is quick,
as yesterday Geo. Wagner purchased of
Captain Timm the property known as
Timm's Hall. The price paid was $4,000
He intends to raise the height of the hall
and build balcony in which he will place
800 opera chairs The floor will be cover
ed with mating and the walls are to be
splendidly decorated and frescoed, and the
stage is to be refitted and furnished with
new scenery and everything is to be put in
opera house order. II. G. Claussen is the
architect and he estimates the cost of the
proposed improvement at $4,000. We
omitted to mention that there will be new
dressing rooms and closets A theatrical
manager from Chicago will see that we
will have the best troupes that the road
affords. Moline has for years felt the ne
cessity of just what we now are about to
receive through the energy and enter
prise of Geo. Wagner. His name in
itself is sufficient that whatever
he undertakes will be pushed for
all there is in it, and Moline people will not
forget his enterprise, but will recognize it
by patronizing the house as they have not
done heretoforesThe intendedlmprovements
will commence as soon as the artichects
plans are completed and the opening opera
house will be red letter day for Moline.

Pal,v,s T,egaey.

One day last week when the remains
of woman had been driven away from
tenement on Division street to a pau
per's grave. says the Detroit Free Press,
half a dozen women gathered in the
bare rooms to act as executors. Law
did not enter with them. There was not
enough there to attract the vulture. The
bed was old and paor--only fit for a
bonfire. The STOVE would hardly pay
for removal Three or four old chairs.
q table, few pieces OF crockery even
the poorest who had gathered there had
no use for them. And yet NV oman and
her boy babe had lived there in the pow
eriy aud among the shadows for long
months. No, it was not living; it was
dragging ont the hours waiting for
another sunset-for another sunrise
Tor the coming of the glad relief. When
the body has long been Ill and the soul
siek-wllen days and nights and weeks
and months have brought nothing but
cold and hunger and groans of despair,
the dread Of death is nothing. The COM
ing of the shadow is even hailed with
glad satisfaction.
And 50 they had lived; and one night
when the winds llowlcd dreai'ily and the
snowlakes wifrled through the broken
panes, the mother and her boy slept
she to awaken no more on earth. Lis
little hands were toying with her cold,

dead face when they found him. They
took him away, and he smiled when
they said: Poor babel You are all
| alone now!'' When the mother had
gone to her narrow home they crept up
stairs to the dismal room, and one of
them said:
1--WE have found home for the child,
but he must not forget his mother. Let
us look for his legacy
And so they searched old dresses, and
peered into the dark corners, and rever-
emily opened the old boxes at the foot of
the bed One found an old scrap book;
another a necklace of beads; another a
knot of ribbon, and when the search was
ended there on the table was a heap of
relics which they wept over. There was
something there which told of girls
love; there was something which told of
marriage of happiness of ahusband's
death-of deep sorrow and bitter power
ty. An auctioneer would have turned
away in contempt rag-buyer would
not have gathered them up, and yet those
women, each with the heart of moth
er, handled each relic with fresh tears.
There was no story in them for a man
there was a whole life's history in them
for a woman. They had not found even
penny In money-not an article that
would bring a dime-not enough prop
erty there to call for removal, and yet
they had found something there gilmore
value than gold or diamonds. There
was legacy for the babe. There was
faded old tintype of father and moth
er, some letters stained with tears, two
locks of hair pinned to the same card
more to him than if the old boxes had
been fun of bright dollars. Only by
them viii he recall the dead-will he
realize mothers love and devotion
will he know that one dark morning
women crept up stairs and found him
prattling to the dead. Money might
have worked his ruin. Those relies, on
which mothers tears have fallen
over which a mothers prayers have as
cended to Heaven-wilI be holy light
to guide him through the deepest gloom.

African Monkeys.

Africa possesses two of the great
man-like apes the gorilla and the
chimpanzee, the former being the lar
gest ape known, and the one which, on
the whole, perhaps most resembles man,
though its countenance is less human
than that of the chinpanzee. The long
tailed monkey of Africa are very numer-
Gus and varied. One group has no
cheek-pouches and no thumb on the
hand, and many of these have long soft
fur of varied colors. The most numer-
Gus group are the guenons, rather small
long tailed monkeys, very active and
lively, and often haying their faces GU
riousiy marked with white or black, or
oTnamented with whisllers or other tufts
of hair; and they all have large cheek
pouches ard good-sized thumbs. Many
of them are called green monkeys, from
the grccnish yellow tint Of the fur, and
most of them are welI-forined, pleasing
animals The balloons are larger, but
less numerous. They resemble dogs in
the general form, and the length of the
face or snout, but they have hands with
well-,'evelaped thumbs on both the fore
and hind limbs; and this with something
in the expression of the face and their
habit Of Sitting up and using their hands
in u very human fashion, at once shows
that they belong TO the monkey-tlibe.
Many OF them are very ugly, and in
their wild state they are the fiercest and
most dangerous OF monkeys. Some have
the tail very long, others of medium
length, while it is sometimes reduced to
mere stump, and all have large check
pouches and bare seat-pads. The larg-
est and most remarkable of all the ba-
boons is the mandrill of west Africa,
whose swollen and hog-lilze face is or
namented with stripes of vivid blue and
scarlet. This animal has a tail scarcely
two inches long. while in size and
strength it is not much inferior to the
gorilla. These large hahaons go in
| bands, and are said to be q match for
any other animals in the African forests.
| and even to attack and drive away the
elephants from the districts they in

nnllaga Songs.

For the introduction Of the college
song proper in this country we are,
more than to any ether man, indebted
to Mr.. r. Storrs Willis After gradual
ing in the Yale Glass of Al, he spent
six years in Germany, and on his re-
turn took up his abode for while in
New Haven, and taught the students
there the Latin song of '.Gaudeamus, y
which he had learned among the Ger
man universities. fsGaudeamns' soon
came to be regarded by the Yale boys
with about the same feeling as English
men have for .sGod Save the King" or
the French Republicans for the MAR
seillaisc." 1t is sung on all occasions
of festivity and of sorrow, and it has
served more than once as a veritable
war song when battles, have been inn
pending with the t'townies.
Harvard was not slow to catch the
singing spirit, and in the course of few
years the students of all the larger East
ern colleges had extensive repertories of
song, which they gave in society halls,
in all accidental gatherings on the col
lege grounds. and most of all. perhaps,
while indulging in the classical pastime
of sitting on the fence.

Sw;ndles in Sardines.

Buyers of sardines are cautioned by

from houses which have name to lose
The cheap kinds are made with fish that
have turned" or have been spoiled by
sailing on board the smacks, and the
oils used are those of cottonseed or the
Senegal ground nut. But this is not all

to give warning against those expor

sizes, small, medium, and large (lznowI
