under arms all day and were much of the time
marching to and from the portals of the city to
receive and escort the guests to whom, in re-
payment for knightly courtesies in the past.
they wished to extend, if possible, something
more than the warm and generous well
come that the city gives to all Its
triennial visitors. Some knights arrived Sat-
urday night. a score or more of Communicates
came in yesterday, but today the great body OF
the Templar army is coming in. Already there
are thousands in the city. BY tonight all that
are expected to take part in the great parade
tomorrow will have arrived, with the excep-
ton Of few that come from so near Washing
ton that they can postpone their departure
from home until the last moment. The trains
that brought the Templars brought. also.
many other visitors to the city, ladies accom-
panying the knights, and many not connected
in any way with communicates, attracted to
the city by the promise of a brilliant spectacle
on Pennsylvania avenue tomorrow.
Every hotel and many houses converted for
the time into asyIums for the Templar pilgrims
are adorned with banners or gorgeous decora-
tons. These combine in most every case the
device and inscription of the Communicates

the usual patriotic show of red. white and blue
bunting. As it were. the visiting knights have
hung their shields outside of their pavilions. as
at a great tourney, though instead OF the
clash of arms and the rough joust here
knights will strive to Guido each other in
courtesy and in the peaceful contests OF
the parade and the banquet board
One feature of the present gathering is the
solid, well-dressed, prosperous appearance OF
the average visitor. the Communicates appear
TO be made up from the best citizens and
leading men of the cities they represent. In
many cases in the ranks are prominent men
whose names are well known beyond their own
cities for their services in war or politics. or
their eminence in the business world. The
gathering of knights will, it is expected far
exceed that assembled at any former triennial
conclave, and be. in truth
"The goodliest fellowship Of famous knights
Whereof this wCrsd holds record"

Got n SweIled Head.

Officer John Geisberger, OF the Moline
police force. is carrying heavy load in
the way of a swelied head and the expsn-
sion will result dissstrously if he is not
checked. The other day Henry Schuma>
cher. one of the oldest, as well as one of
the most inoffensive citizens of Moline in
demesnor, was Inundated by this man
Geisberger's assumed authority. Mr..
Schumacher was standing on walk talk
ing to two ladies. 1t was near the new
Skinner building and the Dispatch relates
the circumstances:
The trio stood at point in the walk
over which a standing wooden brace runs
to the wall of the Schrsder building mex,
to the new block. Thus the walk was
INSTRUCTED, and a lady struck the brace
slightly with her head. Some say this
was a third passer-by; others think it wa:
one OF the two who had stopped for the
moment to interrogate Mr.. S. In harsh
and imperative language, as if Mr.
Schumacher had done something wrong,
Geisberger ordered him to move on.
Naturally, the pride of American citizen.
ship and the consciousness of inno-
cence of any wrong asserted itself, and
Mr.. Schumacher paid no attention &c
the request. Geisberger pushed hin
almost into the gutter, using harsh Ian
gusge as he did so, and drawing from
Mr.. Schumacher question something
like, you d-n fool. what do you mean p
and perhaps q few more such sentences
elected by the unusual proceeding
Thereupon GeIsberger shook him violent
ly, arresting him for profsne language.
Both men were by this time thoroughly
excited, and Mr.. Schumacher resisted &c
the extent of his strength. The result
was that Geisberger had TO call another
officer to his aid in order TO get Mr.
Schumacher up stairs to Magistrate
O'Neill's office. The magistrate was moi
in. and Mr.. s. refused to go to Justice
Swensson's office. Thereupon Gels,
berger exercised the good sense of re
leasing him on his recOgnizsnce pending
the finding of a justice.
The case is TO come up Saturday sne
unless the mayor dismisses Geisberger fol
his offense. Mr.. Schumacher should sue
the city of Moline for damages. as muct
as be is entitled to for the disgracefu
treatment he has received at the hands o
one of her representatives. This. and
several other instances of late have Illus.
trated that numerous changes might bs
made on the Moline force and resound &c
the city's advantage. What with ineff1
cheney and swelled Medicines the towr
seems in bad way. No better marsha
than Ed. Kittleson can be found in the

The temperance lecturer. Will J. Nc
Cornell. whose unfortunate liking for IL
quor got him into trouble in Moline and
elsewhere. has been heard from again.
Tuesdays Chicago Herald says that he
lectured in that city Sunday night. He
made an imprisoned and highly effective
address. He began by admitting that be
had fallen victim once more to his old
enemy, whisky, but he was very sorry
and very humble. 1t would not occur
again he promised. No explanation OF
the manner in which he succumbed was
offered. He said simply that he had
sinned and was penitent, and would do
his levei best to keep in the path Of rec
titude hereafter. At the conclusion OF
the speech collection was taken up.
Though the hall was literally packed to
the doors. and standing room was scarce,
the contribution was small.
