A show Worth Seeing

The only really great tented exhib ition
We shall have in our midst this season will
be the Adam Forepsugh shows. In the
past, extending over perion of almost
a generation, this magnificent exhibition,
gained the glorious word of popular ap
p!ause, and now, as in the past, Its
worth is warrant for its W leone" Ev>
erybody will be Wiling to admit that
good things should be praised" and
therefore is the Adam Forep.ugh shows
worthy OF ali the praise they are con,
stantly receiving Oh all des. and in this
respect, We agree with distinguished
writer. who. in allnding to the circus,
wrote:
Il hold there is nothing like q good
show 1t speaks he universal language
we all understand, and though We affect
at times, to be permeated with other
ideas. and interested in literary or scienti.
fic culture, give us good show, and we
are more delighted with it than with all
the isms ana ologies which science has
given US"
On Tuesday. July IA, the great Fore
paugh shows will be here.

Ill Fate Pursue 9 Him.

Saturday morning Fred Meyer, who as
laid up all last winter with a broken leg
received while assisting in setting up q
boring machine in the Msline Plow COM
pany's blacksmith ship, met with another
misfortune. For some time he has been
employed as foreman of garg of men
making excavations for the basement of
the compsny's new building and for its
tunnel across Fifteenth street. Shortly
before noon he was standing near the ex.
oavation for the tunnel when some of the
men threw out one of the ties that had
been removed from the railroad track
running across to the foundry. The tie
struck on stone and few around so th at
il came down on top of Meyers foot be
being unable to get out of the way on &C,
count of his lameness, as he is still
obliged to walk with the aid CT a cru.ch
and cane. He received severe bruises on
ais foot and leg, and was taken to his
home by one Of the men. His injuries
we're dressed by DR.. Sloan and he will
probably be laid up some time.

WHERE 1T BELONGS.

The Racket That Has Been RIA sed
Over the Canal ROnte-Rock Isl
and In no sense TO BIame-self. h
Interests Ai,ne at Work.
The Davenport Business Mems asso-
citation meets tonight to discuss the Hen
nepin canal question and the opposition
which has been raised to the established
route. the idea being, if THE ARGUS is
correctly informed, to ascertain if there is
reasonable ground for the charges that
have been preferred by exCongressmap
Gest against the engineers in charge Of
the work, and if on the strength of such
representations the operations should be
delayed or hampered or whether they
should be pushed forward to the compile
ton OF the great waterway. The object
OF the Davenport Business Mems asso.
citation meeting is to obtain an intelligent
view of the situation to the end that
that influential body may exert its power
in the right and proper direction.
The Davenport association like the
people as whole of Rock Island
are for the canal by the Rock river route
and they don't care copper for few
yards, q few rods or miles deviation,
either way, so that the canal reaches the
Mississippi as the bill provides, "st or
near Rock Island"
THE ARGUS believes that careful in.
vestigstion will reveal to the Davenport
association the fact that there can be
counted on the fingers of one hand the
people in Rock Island who are seriously
opposed to the line as determined upon
by the civil engineers True it is to be
sure. as oft repeated in THE ARGUS, the
route on the north side of Rock river would
have been more desirable to Rock Island,
but the people here are not disposed to
question the wisdom aud practical
knowledge of the lay of the land of the
disinterested government engineers, to
such extent as to desire to hinder the
work so far progressed. Or, 10 endanger
the measure as whole by raising a howl
because the southern route has been Sc.
lected. What Rock Island wants is the
canal, by the most feasible route, not that
it may afford opportunity for the unload
ing OF property, through which it nav
chance to pass, on the government at
fabulous prices. but that it may prove, as
contemplated By this government and as
indeed it will prove to be-s benefit and
a boon to the internal commerce of the
nation.

WASHINGTON CITY, April Am en-.
tlrely new phase of the situation sur
rounding the recall of the Italian minister
has developed, growing out of dispatch
from Premier Rudini to the MARQUIS I'm
periali, in charge of the legation In this
city. This dispatch is interpreted by such
officials of the state department as can be
seen to mean that Italy virtually recedes
from the attitude assumed since the be-
ginning of the controversy, and indicates
her willingness to await the action of the
New Orleans courts before making any
further demonstrations toward the United
States.
Both Surprised and Amused
The receipt of this dispatch caused the
greatest surprise in all quarters, attended
with feeling of intense amusement at
the very humble manner in which the
Italian govern ment now bows before Sec
rotary Blaine on the heels of two DAYS of
warlike bluster Marquis Imperiali had
nothing to say last evening when asked as
TO the effect of his latest instructions. He
would not admit that he had received
them, and intinated that he could not re-
fer to communications sent to him from
Rome until he had first made known their
contents to Secretary Blaine.

Baron Faya would not talk for publica.

belligerent attitude. He said: Il have
seen the instructions received by I'm
periali. In my opinion there is no intima-
ton that the Italian government ac-
knowledges that it has been too hasty in
the matter. IN fact, it would be most I'M
wise and impolitic for it to recede one
step from the position it has taken.
Should it eventually be decided that the

SchrOedPr's slaughter.

AS predicted by THE ARGUS weeks ago,
Alderman W. F. Schroeder was sand
bsgged by the republican convention last
night. He received the paltry number of
eight votes out of 81, when his name, was
withdrawn and Mr.. McConochie was
no minated by reclamation.
There was no hope for Mr.. Schroeder
from the start. The mayor had laid his
wires well, cunningly entering into a
coalition with Koehler and Haas, which
practically gave him the nomination and
also Insured theirs This was too much
for one man to oppose single-hsnded. as
Mr.. Schroeder did. and the result could
hardly be otherwise than it was. Know
ing the situation, however. Mr.. Schroeder s
friends should not have presented his
name at all.
