The Roumanian Government Is Doing
Things to Worry the Czar.
LONDON, April 2o.-A dispatch from
Vienna says that armed bands are appear
ing in the Dobrudscha. They appear to be
Russians and refugee Bulgarisns, and they
hover between the Russian and Bulgarian
frontiers.
The Roumanian Government. evidently
friendly to Russia, is not interfering with
them, and the Roumanian newspapers are
publishing severe attacks upon Prince
Ferdinand's Government.
The Rounanian army is being armed with
the same weapons as the Russian, and the
Russian officers are permitted freely to
inspect the troops and fortresses. The
new ministry is strongly philo-Rus-
sian, and has entirely overturned the
policy of General Mano. the late Premier
Russian influences prevail in every depart
ment of the Government. and it.is reported
that secret treaty is in negotiation be-
tween Russia and Roumania, similar to that
with France. This would place at the dis
posal of the Russians nearly 800. 900 Rou-
manian troops, and q small but efficient
fleet, the Roumanian army being more than
double that of Bulgaria.

Let Your L,ght shine.

Inc committee appointed by last nights
improVem ant Association meeting TO illum-
nate Tor Tuesday nights Davenport car
Rival was out bright and early this morn
ing and bv noon had its plans well under
way. A member of the committee went
10 Davenport TO learn the wishes there as
10 Illuminating. and was told that Rock
Island could not shine any too bright
either on the river front or elsewhere, SO
that the spirit shown in some quarters
there to belittle Rock Islands disposition
to contribute to the success OF the carni,
val is happily not indicative of the
feelings of the people in general or of those
having the carnival arrangements in
charge. The plan of the local committee
Is to illuminate Spencer square gorgeous
iy, to illuminate the river front and the
electric light towers on court house
square, on Twenty-second and Fourth
avenue and on Twentieth street if the
Brush company does not object, and to
look after the illumination of as many
streets as possible.
The single ain of the association is not
in the least to de,ract from the brilliancy
or success of Davenport's spectacle, but
to contribute as far as possible to the
radiance of the occasion.
The committee will be glad to have all
who are SO disposed contribute by pri-
vate illumination or in money to the sue
cess of the display. There will be moth
ing Of pyrotechnic nature, as THE AR,
GUS Understands it, and nothing of tina,
kind has been contemplated from the
irst-merely an illumination in honor Of
Davenport's carnival.
