wedding.
Business from the Ground Up.
He is young man who believes in doing
everything on strict business basis, so he
took a receipt from Sadie's mSther on Feb.
IL for $S5, which he paid on that date But
before the wedding day arrived somebody
went to Sadie with the story that David had
at one time been an inmate of the Wards
Island Insane asylum. The wedding was
postponed and David demanded the return

it and the case was heard

Pnying the Avenue.

A petition has been circulated along
Moline avenue west OF Thirty eighth
street and signed by S w McMaster and
others, praying that the proposed paving
of the thoroughfare be done by special
assessment and not by special taxation
and that one hslf the expense be borne by
the city. This is a question for the couu-
Gil in its wisdom to determine, but
it is to be hoped that Monday nights
meeting will see 10 the ordering of the
paving and let the incoming council de-
termine the after conditions
Mr.. Gilpin Moore, one of the largest
property holders on the avenue. said to
an ARGUS representative this afternoon:
II don't want to see that Moline paving
fall through; if that avenue is not paved,
| shall almost feel like moving out of the
town. 1t is the artery avenue of travel
between the cities OF Rock Island and
Moline and should receive attention be-
fore paving extensions are made in other
directions.

it was necessary to carry her into the hotel
where her son was dying. All day she
stood over the young man, tearfully await

Cornell would attempt to lift his right hand
to the wound. The anguish of tie old
mother is heartrending. Sne almost con-

Grinnsll, announced that the coast was
clear. Cornell entered, and in brsvado
asked: as that little Grinnell herel I'M
derstand he is laying for me-" A moment
later the bullet from Grinuelrs revolver en-
tered his brain. Grinnell is small and
feeble man, and won d have been no match
for Cornell who is large and power fully

that made Cornell so bold in act and Ian
