The perfection of the Brewers art has
been reached in the production Of the
"Pilsener Beer"-it is of the most beauti-
full amber color, as clear as crystal; little.
beads rise through the liquid as If it were
champagne, and its foam is like whipped
cream. Upon emptying glass, its ap-
pearance is fully borne out by its taste. It
is delicate, with q smart smack of hops and
malt, and leaves q lingering flavor on the
tongue. One of its best qualities is it's
lightness, causing no headache, even il
used to excess. 1t is fully equal to, if not
superior, to any of the Eastern or foreign
brands in the market. 1t is highly re-
commended for family use, and ali orders
will be promptly executed by

A young fellow named Woodruff, and
a girl named Richardson got drunk yes,
terday, and after drinking them>
selves drunk commenced quarrel
ling. They were walking up Six
teenth street, and were near
Mrs. Perry's house when they got to
fighting. After they had exchanged few
blows, love taps, probably, they wan-
dered over to Fourth avenue near Volk's
old mill, and there they went to fighting
again. Officer Etzel saw them and grabs
bling each of them by the arm, he waltzed
them down to the armory and locked
them up. They will be brought before
Squire Chopper this evening, and made
to show cause for their ungodliness.
Peg Wilson is again in the tolls. 1t
has been many moons since Peg has
graced the police court with her presence,
and the 'powers that be" were congratu-
lating themselves that they had succeeded
in reforming Peg. But alas and alack,
twas not so, for here she is again. She
and her fellow, whose name could not be
learned by the ARGUS scribe, were ar
rested last night for gadding on the
streets at late hour for no
good purpose. Both of them will be
brought into Choppers temple to be sem
fenced this evening.

MACKENZIE 0UsTED.
The War Department to Send New
Officer to Manage the q. s.
Engineer Corps.

1t will be news to nearly everyone in
Rock Island, Davenport and Moline to
know that Capt. Alexander Mackenzie,
head officer of the United States Engineer
corps at this point, has been notified of
his release from duty, and that Major
Ernst H. Roeffiler, of Willet's Point, New
York, has been ordered to take his place,
and will be here in few days.
While we think Major Mackenzie is
not personally objected to by the citizens
of Rock Island, it is very evident that the
news of his removal from the position of
commander of tbs U. s. Engineer corps
will be received with favor An impress
sion, al first, has at length grown into a
belief that the gentleman was bound to
ignore Rock Island, and to that end the
greater number CT the officers under his
charge have been removed to st. Paul,
while the headquarters were supposed to
be here, This action, of course, has been
very annoying to the citizens of this city,
who considered it his duty to keep the
men under his employ, here. The slight
ing of Rock Island, more than anything
else appears to be the cause of his pres
ent eviction from office 1t is understood
that his successor has been instructed to
remove all the officers back from St. Paul
so in the future Rock Island will be the
headquarters in reality. There are about
thirty six families in the engineer corp.
and their arrival will give the city quite {
boom.

A Jefferson Cluh

Steps have been taken by the demo-
Gratis of Rock Island to organize Jeffer-
son club, the object of which shall be to
advocate and advance democratic princi-
piles and policies through the agency of
the democrat party. These clubs are be-
ing organized all over the state and will
be controlled by uniform constitution as
authorized by the state central commits
tee.
The democrats of the city will hold a
meeting at Turner hall on Thursday even
ing to elect officers and secure members
for this club. An initiation fee and
monthly dues will be charged. 1t is not
only intended to continue the Jefferso n
club through the campaign but to estab-
lish it as a permanent organization, and
at all times work for the interest of the
party. The club expects to do good work
when it once gets fairly started, and all
who wish to join and aid in the work of
reform are requested to be on hand
Thursday evening.

The bill of Davis & Co., $996.45 for
sewer tile to be used on the Eighteenth
street sewer was then presented. The
mayor stated that the tile had been Or
dered by the street and alley committee
without the consent of the city council,
and he had ordered the delivery stopped.
Alderman Sinnett said the committee had
made mistake in thinking that it had
been invested with power to act by the
city council. Dr. Truesdale, who was
present by invitation, was then asked to
give his views in regard to the condition
of the present sewer, and also what he
thought was necessary to be done.
The doctor said he had examined the
sewer and found that it was in bad con-
dition. 1t would be better to construct
new sewer, as it was almost impossible to
repair the present one so as to make it
tight and serviceable. 1t had been cheap
ly built in the first place. He didn't think
it prudent for private residences to con-
meet their sewer with it, as poisonous
gases had generated by the accumulation
of filth, and it would be a source of con-
tinual nuisance, and as a result, sore
threats, diptheria, ETC., would be preva-

A Fallen Tree.

Yesterday couple of men were en-
gagged in cutting down large tree on
Second avenue near the old round house.
They intended that the tree should fall to
the north, but instead it fell to the south,
falling against number of telegraph
wires swapping themin two. This caused
no end of trouble to the Western Union
Telegraph company, also to number of
our railroad telegraph offices. The wires
are all right, now, however, having been
joined together again.

Logs.

The supply of logs at the mills is get>
ting short, and the water is so low that it
is almost impossible to get RATS over the
rapids What the mills will do if it don't
rain can well be imagined, They will
have to shut down whether they desire to
do so or not. 1t Is to be hoped that there
will be some heavy rains up north, which
will cause the river to rise. There are
plenty of logs up north, but the trouble
will be in getting them down here.
