THE GERmAN-AmknIoANs.

A Pleasant Entersainmens Last Night
 The Coming Masquerade.
 The Young German-Ameican association gave . private musical entertainment at Turn hall last evening. It was a very pless- ant affair and thoroughly enjoyed by all those who attended. Several fine selections were sung by the Jocelyn Squad quartette; Pro. lessor Donnelly rendered a tenor solo, Nu- mann gave q humorous recitation, 8 cotralto solo by Miss Meyer, flute solo by Dr. Hol- brook; Messrs. Holt and Strok gave 8 ztther duet, and Messrs. Pleines. Fancher and Cone gave selections on e mandolin, zither and guitar which were heartily applauded. Good music was furnished throughout at in- tsrvals by Schreck's orchestra.
 The German American association will give a masquerade ball at Turn Hall on Monday evening March 24. MT. o. G. Weiss, presi- dent of the association, has spared no pains to make this affair such as all those given be- assured all those who attend, and fun-loving people will no doubt turn out in large num- be%s and dance beneath mack and gown. Professor Nelson will do the prompting and Schreck's orchestra will furnish the music.
 Church Of the Messiah.
 A powerful and forcible sermon was preached last evening in the Church of the Messiah by Rev. L. H. Squires, the pastor, to an appreciative audience. The subject was in relation to business methods. Two types of business men were given. One was that of grssping, avaricious man, who stifed all the nobler feelings and directed all his energies to the accumulation of wealth. The other was that of man with heart, who would not crowd another but would allow his better nature to prompt him to lenieney and kindness What is wanted in these days of business activity and fierce competition, said the speaker, is more humane feeling and more sympathy. Employers should feel interested in those who work for them. They should endeavor, by kindness and by all the means in their power, to help these persons who are laboring for them. By so doing great good would be accom- plished and mutual good feeling and respect maintained.
 He who lives simply for gaining wealth makes fatal mistake. Time will show him that his life has been failure. But he who tries to help his fellow man by deeds of live in vain. Though he may not become very rich in the sense that the world connts riches, yet in the true sense he will develop what is higher and holier, noble nature; riches of the spirit-that which moth and rust cannot corrupt; that which will live and bear beautiful fruitage. And though he may not be cited as great hnancier or shrewd business man by business critics, yet there will be many who will accord him higher praise, and those whom he has helped, whose cares he has lessened, whose burdens he has frightened, will appreciate and love him, and he who owns all the gold will bless him, and his life will be a grand success.

Gone to the Fair.

Supt. Fl. B. Sudlow. of the R l. & P. i.
appreciates efficiency and merit in con-
stabulary way. He not only likes to have
good men for police duty when he needs
them, but likes to see them. too. Last
year he left the matter of providing spec
ial police for his depot and gates at the
Peoria fair to the municipal authorities of
Peoria and they provided him with a gang
of unreliable men without discipline. ex-
perience or uniform and they were
about as much service as so many
wooden men. Consequently this year
Mr.. Sudlow decided to insure bet
ter police service, and he asked Marshal
Miller for three of his men, and the Mar
shall. with the mayors permission. dele>
gated Deputy Marshal Long and Officers
Sexton and Hetter to fill the honors. and
they went down on this afternoons train
with complete uniform, battons and other
insignia of office. and in readiness to
strike terror to all the hoodlums and law
breakers that invade Peoria this week,

stalwarts of the regular force for the same
purpose.
Marshal Miller has appointed Messrs.
Louis Ohlweiler and ALT. Coyne tempo

Groundiess Reports.

Since the burial of Mrs. Sophia Nelson
on the 22d ult. some of the people in the
neighborhood in which she resided in the
lower part of the city have been spreading
a report that the appearance of the bod Y
after being placed in the coffin was such
as to cause the belief that she was not
dead and these reports of awful pos
sibilities having reached the ears of the
husband, he on Saturday evening drove
out to Chippisnnock in company with
DR.. Piummer and Undertaken Knox and
had his wife's remains disiuterred. The
body was found not only in the same posi-
ton as when placed in the coffin, but was
in an advanced state of decomposition.
Mrs. Nelson died suddenly of congestive
chill on the morning of the 21st, and the
following afternoon was buried. She
had been suffering from mslarial fever for
some time and had just returned to the
city after a visit to New Windsor when
she was seized with the chill and expired.
After death her face was discolored and
Mr.. Knox applied a solution which not
only removed it, but brought out a some>
what flushed appearance. This started
the groundless rumors which have now
been effectuslly set at rest.

that the improvements of the Jack fountain
in Market Square would include clock

dials. This will be great ornament to
this part of town, and thus does the work
of public improvement go on. To Mr..
M. M. Briggs. who fathered and hsE
worked up all the plans for the putting
of this fountain in first-class condition,
is due much credit. He has shown hi,
public spirit in a manner that all will ap,

side but not imbedding itself in the flesh.

left a crimson trail which caused great
alarm among those who were attracted by

summoned and found the bullet had not

in such contact with the cords of the neck

STRUCK IN THE HEAD BY CAR.
F. I'll. Clark. switchman in the r. /.

yesterday and it is surprising that the re-
suits were not more serious than they
proved to be. He was bending over q
switch removing switch pin when a
moving freight car. which fortunately
was not going fast, struck him in the
head and knocked him almost senseless.
As good fortune had it, he fell outside
the track, where he was quickly picked
up and DR.. G. B. Kinyon summoned to
attend him. A deep ugly scalp wound
was found on the top of the head and a
large artery severed from which the blood
flowed copiously. A few stitches sufficed
TO close the wound, and while the patient
will be laid up for while. the injuries
are not regarded by DR.. KinYon as ex-
tremely serious. Mr.. Clark lives on
