Common Sense.

Very few people in this world possess
what Is known as practical common
sense, vet those who do claim moiety
of that necessary requirement say that II
is foolish TO assert that there is no known
cure for rheumatism, when the great
medicine, Salicylica, is guaranteed to
give immediate and permanent relief. A
test of its efficacy is the fact that il has
been established for five years, and is all
assured success.

No Use for Them.
Concerning Certain Relics Of the Past-Dogs
that Have Had Their Day.

George Stephenson's Rocket and the mag
nifcent locomotives of to-day, are built upon the
same general principle, yet the machine with
which the great engineer astonshed his age, is in
teresting now only as an illustration of the begin
ming of the invention There were plasters with
holes in them long before BENSoN'S CAPCTNE
POROUS PLASTER surprised both the public and
the physicians; and the triumph of the Capcine
is founded upon the partial successes, or the utter
failures of its predecessors. Everything of value
in the old porous plaster is retained in the Cap
cine; but at this point all comparison ends, and
contrast begins. For example:
The old plasters were slow in their action; the
Capcne is quick and sure
The old plasters lacked the power to do more
than to impart light, temporary relief in cases
easy of treatment; the Capcine penetrates the
system and permanently cures the troubles for
which il is recommended.
The old plasters depended for any good results
they might attain, upon an accident of their max.
ers and the naked faith of their wearers; the
Bensons reaches its ends by means of the scen-
tifc combination of the rare medicinal ingredi-
ents which it contains.
In brief, the old plasters, like Stephensons dis
| cardei engine. are switched off the track, while
the Bensons goes on its way winning golden
opinions from all sorts of people
Yet in this very fact lies the leading danger to
the people VINO buy and use this reliable and sci
entifc remedy. Hypocrisy is the tribute vice
pays to virtue Imitation is the concession fail
IRE makes to success. Be9son's Plasters are
parodied in name and style

A CRANK'S FREAK.
He Jumps From the Deck Of the War
Eagle Into the Mississippi.

About o'clock this morning, people
along the levee witnessed an exciting time
on the steamer War Eagle. The steamer
arrived here about 6 o'clock, from above,
and started for below an hour later Just
as the boat had got her head down stream,
man sprang from the upper deck into
the water A yawl was Immediately low
cred, manned by the. mate and several
deck hands, and sent to rescue the man,
When the yawl approached him, he tried
to swim away, but he was overtaken and
hauled into the yswl. Then commenced
a desperate struggle. The fellow was ev-
identity a crank, and had attempted to
escape When the steamer was reached,
he fought the harder, and it was necessary
to tie rope around him to haul him on
board. During the excitement man fell
overheard, and no little trouble was caused
to get him out. At last all were on
board, the crank secured, and the bold
War Eagle steamed for st. Louis.

WHAT ROCK ISLAND LOST.

If the citizens of Rock Island expect to
ever inaugurate boom, they must work.
A few weeks ago there was chance to
secure large oat meal mill, but it went
to Peoria, not because the projectors pre-
ferTed Peoria, out because that town
snapped at the opportunity and secured
the prize. The following from the
National Democrat, will give Rock Is
landers an idea what they lost by negli-
gence:
Stewart & Carter have let the contract
for the erection of the oat meal mill to
Valentine Jobst. the lowest bidder, at
$21, 800 The other bidders were Perry
& Deal, $22,13 John Flynn, S22, 300,
and Joseph Miller & Sons, $21, 900. The
architect is Paul Leitz. The mill will be
located on the rivers bank, about block
above Truesdale's planning mill. Work
will be commenced at once, and completed
in seven weeks. 1t will be six stories
high, and million and quarter Of
bricks used in its construction. The firm
is at great loss each day that the mill is
not in operation, which accounts for the
short time given in which to complete the
work. 8

INST ONE YEAR TOO OLD.

In the old town Of Newburyport,
Mass, it was formerly the custom to
have up notes in the pulpit on Sunday
mornings, which was the vernacnlar for
the act of sending a note to the pastor
requesting prayers for special occasions
Not long ago good brother from the
country occupied one of the pulpts in
that town, and on opening the Bible
came across the one such note, aud after
reading it, announced to the congregation
that Mr. A. requested the prayers and
sympathy of the congregation in the sud.
den death of his loved wife, and in the
prayer that followed he offered up fer
vent Petition for 1.-THE brother sitting
lonely and desolate in his pew etc. He
noticed movement in the congregation
that almost amounted to panic, and to
his CONSERVATION he afterward learned
that the note had been shut up in the
Bible year, and that Mr. A. had his
new wife for the first time in the pew. He
is very careful about giving out notices

INTERESTING TO OLD SETTLERS.

Our old settlers will find interest in
this account of himself, and tribe, given
by Moses son of Keokuk, an old chief, to a
reporter of the Keokuk constitution:

ents to your present home in Kansas" r
In 1845."
When did your father, Chief Keokuk.
from whom our city derived its name,
die2"
In 1847--about June, on the south
bank Of the Marie de Cygne, about two
miles south of the town of Pomona, in
Franklin county, Kansas. He was buried
at the agency, five miles east of the place

last resting place"
: How many sons and daughters did he
have at the time of his death?'
There were FIVE of us-two boys and

THE DOUGLAS TREE

EDITOR ARGUs-DEAR SIR: | see by
an article in you issue of last evening
that you have been badly misinformed as
to the facts in connection with the re
moval of the Douglas tree in court house
square. In the first place your paper
states that one day last week workman
took an ak and deadened it. This is an
error. After it was known that the tree
would have to be removed and that it was
a slippery elm, some small boys peeled it,
and there was certainly no act of vanjal
ism committed. Then you state that a
change of a few feet in the building
would not have made much difference
and the tree could have been
allowed to stand. Now in reply
to this / would say that it is
an error. The building runs east, north
and west of the tree more than 90 feet
and that it stands not to exceed ten feet
from the center of the building. So you
can very readily see that it would necessi.
tate very great change to keep away
from it. There is no one in the county
who regrets its removal more than the
undersigned, but it could not be helped
] am not at all anxious to get into print
but think as the excavation is being made
under my directions, that an explanation
Is in order. ]. N. RETICKER,
Sheriff

RAILWAY MATTERS.

The St. Paul road will charge $29. 80
TO Denver and return, to parties desiring
to attend the G. A. r. encampment.
Vice President Hopkins, when he took
control of the Wabash, St. Louis and
Pacific Road, claimed to have effected an
annual saving of s24,0O to the company
by the cutting down of the number of
officers and their salaries. Now Vice
President Hoxie comes in and alleges that
he has reduced the official expenses of the
company $4,000 per aunum. 1t has
always been alleged by observing railroad
men not connected with the road that the
road was too much differed, and state
ments of the above character do much to
confirm such belief. Above all this
there is feeling that the heads of some
of the most useful officers have been tumb-
led into the basket, and that the road viii
suffer more in its business than it viii
profit through the saving in salaries.

CROSSED CUES.
A Match Game of Billiards at RCbt
GOldensteen's Place.

The match game of billiards three
balls-between H. ]. Symes, of this city,
and VIM. Cation, of St. Louis, at Robt.
Goldensteen's place last night, drew
good audience, who watched the game
with great interest. Cation made his
appearance first, and made some fine
exhibition shots. 1t was nearly nine
o'clock when the game commenced. Cat
ton won the bank, and scored IA billiards
Symes only made one on the first inning,
and on the several following his rune
were small On Cations tenth inning
he knocked out 106 billiards, and was
heartily applauded for his fine playing.
He ran his score up to 200 on the if
teenth inning, and q short intermissiOn
followed. At this stage of the game
Symes only had 70 points. On the
eighteenth inning Cation did not miss
until he had added 81 to
his score. He was followed by Symes,
with what proved to be the largest ruin
of the evening. The player got the balls
on the rail- and did not fall down until
he got them half around the table, and
his score was 10S better when he finished.
symes was warmly applauded for his fine
playing during this inning, and he showed
himself to be billiardist of no low order.
Again in the twenty.seventh inning he
showed his skill, and 'nursed" the worries
until he had 90 points more On the
thirty first inning Cation got the balls
together and won the game, making 90
billiards, and laid down his cue without
completing his run. Symes' score was
314.
The game occupied about two hours
time, and was friendly contest, no wager
being put up on the result. The con-
testants are both professional players,
Mr.. Symes being the owner Of several
medals, which he has won an former oc
casions. Cations average was 12B and
Symes' 10 7-15.
