The newspapers generally commend
Senator Edmunds for introducing bill
in the L s. Senate on Saturday, pro
vid!ug for the punishment of persons
convicted OF crimes committed by
means of explosive compounds OF any
character, and there is probability
that 1t will speedily pass both Houses
and become a law. To make it com
plete, Senator Bayard should introduce
an aInendme providing that one half
the Jurors summoned shall be socialists
or sympathizers with the Offenders The
law would be then on par with the
ex listing one providing that jurors shall
be summoned from the Republican and
Democratic parties The persons arrest

will never be- reached through preiu-

works 40 vel in regard TO one class o
crimes there is no reason that it SHOULD
not be applied TO others.
Senator Bayard is a philanthropist,
Just man, and will not sanction an

Rinklets

The Rock Island rink was crowded
again on Saturday evening by the young
people of the tri-cities. The attraction
was the bycicle riding of two Galesbure
youths named Friedberg and fischer
Their exhibition consisted of single and
double riding and polo game on the 81
lent steed, all of which was very cleverly
done. The usual general skating, marches,
etc, preceded and followed the bycicle
riding. Tonight there will be a five mile
race with five entries.
There were numerous chr racters at the
rink Saturday night, The banker the
railroad agent, the cool dealer, and the
Davenport dude all We'd for honors. 1ne
banker was in an ecstasy of delight as he
rolled around the room first with one and
then another beauty. The railroad agent
got up head of steam before he was
aware of the act.and he was soon wheel
ing along like an express train an hOul
late. He finally left tie main track and
struck the dress circle seats with heavy
thud. The coal dealer slipped around
the floor, just as though the barber had
made mistake and put the hair oil OF
his feet. The D. ID. cut up curious antics
foreign to this city, but probably GUS
tomary across the river. The sight was
a novel one. twill be repeated agar

Although generally of little conse>
quence, some people will remember the
words spoken by old Danforth at a sup>
posed Hennepin canal meeting last spring.
The old rooster shufiied up to the foot
lights like lame chicken going to water
and after striking an imposing % attitude,
and adjusting his wig, said 1T will be a
cold day for Jerry Murphy, Billy Neece
and Tommy Henderson, it they allow the
street railway bill to pass the house and
the Hennepin canal bill to be defe tted .
The people will see that they are not re
turned to congress.
Later Developments prove that the 4th
of November was colder day for old Joe
than for either Jerry, Billy or Tommy
The three gentlemen were returned to
congress, and in this county where Mr.
Neece was fought by the ferry monopoly
he gained several hundred votes. And
this Notwithstanding the fact that, the
bridge railway bill passed the house and
the Hennepin canal bill failed Old Joe
will probably some day find out that hi
has lost his grip on things in general. A
any rate most everything and everybody
he opposes, succeeds. When he came
out for Butler We knew the widows
goose was cooked We are glad HI
didn't support Cleveland.

sample of two boxes of oranges and two
boxes of lemons which he received as a
New Years present from his nephew, John

Several years ago when Mr.. Campbell
pulled up stakes in Edgington and an
nounced his intention of going to Florida
to raise oranges and lemons, his friends
laughed at him. and intimated that he
would soon be back, wishing that he had
never gone away, but he went just the

1t has been rumored for several days
that Harry Eldridge, gay young sprig
of Davenport had married the notorious
Mrs. Lizzie Green, who recently kept a
restaurant on Fourth avenue in this city.
The rumer is now confirmed. The cou-
pie were married in Chicago last Thurs
day. Young Eldridge kept feed store
in Davenport for some time and did a
pretty good business when he gave his
attention to it. He is the son of highly
respectable gentleman, a restaurant keep
er, of Davenport, and is otherwise highly
connected. The Green woman has been
notorious in Davenport for several years,
having kept cigar store on Fifth street
in that city until driven out by the new
law against lewdness now in effect in
Iowa Then she went to Kansas City,
and two or three months ago she came to
this city, but found this a poor place for
her business. She is q woman of forty
years of age while Eldridge is not more
than twenty-five. His family is oil broken
up over the disgraceful affair. 1t is said
that Eldridge was engaged to marry a
Moline girl, who year or so ago moved
to Chicago with her parents They had
a quarrel some time ago and he married
this notorious woman for spite 1t looks

works on two confessions of judgment in

confessions were made to Mr.. Wilson, il
is understood, to protect him. as the COM

on leading newspapers. Next he went
to San Francisco and secured a position
on the I Chronicle as that papers
