WILL ROCK ISLAND TRY?
An Indian Supply Warehouse to he
Located in the West.

A Chicago paper furnishes the follow
ing information which contains valua
BILE hint as to what Rock Island may, by
putting forth proper endeavors, secure:
Since Indian Commissioner Atkins got
back, the talk about an Indian supply
warehouse al Chicago or some other west
| ern city, is beginning to take shape.
The papers presented by New York, Chi
cago. st. Louis. and Kansas City are
ready for the commissioner whenever he
| gets time 10 pass on them. 1t is not too
late, however, for further arguments
and, though none OF the Chicago con
gressmen are in the city. any action taken
| by the commercial organizations would
have weight. Chicago had the advantage
Of being the first IN the field 1t was
only after Bishop Oberly had started the
movement to make it instead OF New
York the principal warehouse supply
point, that st. Louis and Kansas City
made their bids. 1t was then urged on
| behalf of the change that a large saving
could be made for the government by
having the goods contracted for delivered
in the west instead of at New York, and
shipping them direct to the Indian posts.
The New Workers have held that they get
through freight rates for the government
| fully as cheap as would be given for
shipments from points west of the Allie
ghenles, but this has been shown to be
untrue. A very large quantity of Indian
supplies is already handled at Chicago.
Rock Island has abundant advantages
for securing this supply depot Situated
as it is on three direct connecting lines of
the Northern Pacific road running di
reCtly into the Indian reservations and
also one of these lines making immediate
connection with the Union Pacific, pass
ing into the Indian babitations, and on
two roads connecting directly with the
AtchiDsoD, Topeka & Santa Fe. with
prospects of the latter road coming
into the city, it is emuenuy
proper that application should be
made for securing this depot, and
quite probable that SUCH application
accompanied by statement of the city's
advantages would receive favorable
consideration in Mr. Atkins hands. The
city also has the advantages of water
communication with St Paul on the
north, and St. Louis and New Orleans
south, railroad connections with the
Wabash system at Peoria, and three
trunk lines extending to all the great
cities in the east
These important facts tpsether with

thousand people within the three cities, a

AT THE THEATRE.
Aimee DIsappoints Her Audience

AIMEE IN ENGLISH.


A fair audience was present at Harper
theatre Saturday night. on the occasion of
the first visit to Rock Island of the famous
Aimee. in English. "Mam'zelle," far
cical comedy, was presented. There is
nothing in the piece, and Aimee fails to
give any attractive features. She has a
sweet voice, but there is an absence of
charm and grace in her action and ap-
pearance that tend TO prejudice an audi
ence expecting something finer. Her
rendition OF Pretty as Picture which
made her famous, did not impress the
audience. though she gave the song quite
cutelY. The rest of the programme was
slashed, some of the most promising num-
bers being omitted entirely, in the com
pany's endeavor to get through in time to
catch the train for the east
The support is all good, and especially
does Newton Cheshill, as the prosperous
stage manager. deserve mention for his
rendition of his part His acting was
