River Riplets.

Capt. Pierce has engaged himself as
first engineer on the steamboat Nellie for
the rest of the season.
The remodeled steamer Clyde made her
trial trip the last of the week. She trav>
eled from nine mile island to the Dubuque
levee in 80 minutes, and made the last
mile at the rate of thirteen miles an hour
She is a stern wheeler and practically q
new boat, the only relics of the old eide
wheeler of the same name she bears be-
ing doctor and deck pump. She
was built at the Eagle Point ways. The
hull is of iron She is 1876 feet long, 10
feet beam, and feet in the hold. The
cylinders are 104 inch bore and 81 feet
stroke. which is the usual stroke
for IS inch cylinders. The Clyde

boat is owned by Turner, Hollingshead &
Law.
The rafter Tiber has been condemned
at Quincy by the St. Louis inspectors.

years ago, and rebuilt at Lacrosse. She
was thoroughly overhauled at Dubuque
during the spring of 'S2, receiving two
new copper steam pipes. and was Others
wise refitted Considerable money was
also expended on her last season. The
Tiber was worth about $1,000. The com.
pany owns no other boat and will proba>
bly, build new one. River men sxpress

Gone Under.

The Davenport branch of the Argand
Oil company went under yesterday. The
circumstances are, that during the last
fourteen days the Citizens National bank
in Davenport paid drafts of Mr. W. E.
Booth, the agent of the Argand OIL cons
pany, TO the aggregate sum of So, 200.
The drafts were on the company, whose
headquarters are in Marietta, Ohio. Now
word comes from Marietta that payment
has been refused. The bank then placed
an attachment on $50 barrels of oil, the
Office furniture and books that were in
possession of Mr.. Booth, at his Office and
storehouse on Front street, and the sheriff
has the same in his possession. One huns
bred and twenty barrels of the oil had
been received in the previous twelve
hours. Although the president of the
company at Marietta. telegraphs to his
Davenport agent, that the company have
not faild, it is generally believed in bust
ness circles that such is the case. The
failure of large operator in Cincinnati
is said to be the cause of the trouble.

to burglary and was sentenced to three
years in Joliet penitentiary. Conrad
Waid plead guilty to larceny and was
sentenced to thirty daas in the county
Jail and fined 800. John Garin and
VIM. Buckley plead guilty to disorderly
conduct, and were fined SIS and costs
and ordered to stand committed until the
fine and costs are paid. The jurors fol-

A Iail ualiVarY.

A few days ago the Moline police ar
rested three young lads who were found
in the upper end of that city with goods
in their hands which they did not seem to
come by honestly. The boys were sem
fenced to fifteen days confinement in the
calaboose. Two days later two confed>
crates of the lads were arrested, and one
of them sent to the county Jail for thirty
days. A few days afterward two new pair
of shoes were found in the vicinity of the
camp of the would-be Jesse James gang
Then the police were certain that the
boys had been engaged in burglaries
elsewhere also. So four of them were
confined in the calaboose until Tuesday
night. But thereby hangs tale. A con-
versation was overheard by man con-
fined in the city bastile, to the effect that
the tramps had intended to work Moline
Whether they had friends there is not
known, but at any rate file was con-
veyed to them by some means or other,
and the scamps made good use of it.
They filed the bars off from the west
window of the Jail and then filed Out, land
up to this writing nothing has been
heard of them, although the police have
redoubled their exertions to capture
them.
The gang is one of the hardest that
ever struck Moline, and would no doubt
have caused serious trouble if the police
had not run them in" The escape was
one of the most cleverly planned that has
ever been concocted in Moline.

THE LAST SABBATH.

General Grants Family, With Their Be-
vice Around the Remslns of Their De-
parted Head.
MT. MCGREGoR, N. Y, August O..
Hundreds Of visitors came up on the
little mountain railroad to-day. The
sense of the nearness of the closing scene
seemed to rest on all alike. Yesterday
afternoon Mrs. Grant asked that DIR.
Newman be sent for to come to the cot
tage. When he came Mrs. Grant
reminded the pastor that her dead
would be here only little
while longer, and asked him to be with
the family while yet he was their very
own. Thus it was that about two O'Clock
Mrs. Grant and her daughter and sons
with their wives were in the room with
the dead. The family surrounded the
calafalque, beneath which was the calm,
peaceful face of the General. Mrs.
Grant, from table, brought her dead
husbands bible, which she opened
and passed to Dr. Newman.
He found that the book was opened at
The fourth chapter of Job, and each one
present knelt in prayer. After an hours
quiet conversation, dwelling principally
upon the Generals last sickness, the lit
tie group arose, and the last Sabbath
service Of the family with their dead was
at an end.
