tions are all sufficient unless q heavy fire
should occur and in such an event il
would be difficult to foretell the conse-
Quences. At all events the present con-
dition is one that may well warrant con.
siderable anxiety as il the water should
get so low that the pipe could not reach
it and the snction be maintained, it would
prove great hardship not only to manu-,
featuring industries and various kinds of
business dependent upon it, but to many
families whose consumption is only river
water, and who have no wells or cisterns.
In Davenport the situation is more
alarming than here as not only is the in
let pipe to its water works almost useless,
but there is no way of extending or
lowering it advantageously. That city.
however, has temporary relief in its
reservoir which, however, would not
avail continuous supply should the source
become exhausted.
In Moline the situation is equally
alarming. as the mouth of the inlet pipe
10 the water>w0rks IN that city is almost
entirely above water, and further de.
cline would render it useless.
The situation is one that impresses the
city Of Rock Island with three urgent
duties-one tn extend and lower the inlet
pipe while the water is low another to
build reservoir on the bluff, and the
third to equip fire department with
an electric alarm and men always on duty,
so that by getting there quickly there
will not be the demand for water such as
there would be now.

time of it making trips. only four round
trips having been made this forenoon
The water is only knee deep in many
places where ordinarily it is twelve to

the others blank. Johnny Colligan, the
Office boy, was blindfolded and permitted
to draw from each box simultaneously a
ticket until the one marked wagon came
out, and the number on the correspond

lucky one.
There were 100 tickets drawn before
the wagon" one came, while in the other
hand the boy held 1873. Reference to the

ARGUS regrets that all of its subscribers
could not have drawn a wagon, and it de-
