The Crematory Given Over EntireIy

The Moline city council has abandon ed
entirely the ides Of crematory. AT the
meeting Monday night the council decid>
ed, after some discussion, to sell the ere
mstory lot back to the Water Power COM
psny at the original cost, $1,000. Sew
eral of the Moline aldermen feel certain
that the crematory plan of disposing of
the garbage is practicable, and are not
certain but that there may be use for that
lot in the near future, nevertheless it was
voted to sell the lot back. That lot
couldn't be purchased for the same pur-
pose in the future for double the money.
The Dispatch says:
There was some Informal discussion as
to how we should dispose of our garbage
in the future, and the city attorney was
called upon TO read the state law in re-
gard to the pollution of streams by city
filth, etc. He did so. and made il pretty
clear that our neighboring cities were all
violating the law, but inssmuch as they
have no cities on the river Immediately
below them, as We have, nobody is dis
turbing them.
A number of plans were suggested to
get rid of our refuse, the most practical
of which, probably. was that of Mayor
Vessel, that we haul it out to Rock river
and dump it therein. We could select q
point outside of the jurisdiction of Mi
Ian. and thus be as nearly complying
with the law SIS are any Of our neigh
bors.
Alderman McBeth suggested the hiring
OF dump boat, which could be loaded
above Dimick. Gould & Co.'S, and
dumped at point below Davenport and
Rock Island.

were never in camp before. including one
entire company. The promptness with
which this regiment formed for all duty
was an agreeable surprise, and their bat

very creditable indeed. Their guard

An elderly gentleman whose name is

in search of 3 fourteen-year old runaway
daughter. Ii appears tina. she left home
last Thursday in company with another
young girl fifteen years OF age. The ell

The precipitation will be small in the far

be excessive in any part of the country
except in few spots near the coasts.
After the cold spell in the first half of the
month. it will moderate for a few days

The ~ aIamay0o' "

Miss Eunice Goodrich, the little SOU
brette, who is quite favorite with lock
Island theatre goers, has a new feature in
connection with her troupe this season.
The Bulletin, of Freeport, thus describes
il:
One of the most attractive features Of
the Goodrich performance is the musical
specislties of Prof. G. A. OFT The pro,
lessor plays on almost any instrument
from growler up to second base. He
tums the piano admirably, toots the slide
trombone mellifiously and makes the
xylophone Just hump itself. Last night
the professor played an instrument of his
own invention, which is called the Kala>
mazoO. 1t looks like cross between a
clothes wringer and trotting horse. 1t
is about the size of three links of sau.
sage and has long and tender tube TO
squeak through. 1t combines the strong
points of most musical instruments with
the weak ones. Here you may find the
cultural moan of the horse fiddle and the
pellucid skiptioditty of the jewshsrp, blen
ding with the wheezy tones of the bag
pipe with the shrek of the steam piano on
the side. Here is the dismal plant of the
ocsrina. softened by the insidious CLAM
our Of the mandolin, while the tri-
angle and the kettle drum clat-
ter along with the cimbsls and alto
horn. oh, it's great Ii is whole
string and brass band by its lonesome.
Any man possessing one of these instru-
ments is capable of heading a funeral
procession or a cake walk. A torch.
light procession equipped with them
would have no trouble in electing its can
dldate. One of these machines is as
good as boiler shop with the mellow
wall of the circular saw heard through
the portals. 1t is combination and a
form indeed.

proposition to ill at thirty-three cents
