There is nothing on eartli for which

il it the forces on which great charac-

The Power of Music.

In the congregation Of st. Stephens
church, Philadelphia, a few Sundays
ago, says The Religious Telescope, wa a
man, evidently a tramp. His face was
scanned by the lines brought by dissipa-
ton, and his name was restless and
nervous. His shabby clothes were in
striking contrast with the handsome
attire Of those among whom he sat.
When Dr.. Wood, the blind organist,
touched the keys of his instrument and
began 10 lay a soft, sweet melody as a
voluntary, the mans eyes filled with
tears. and he buried his face in his
hands. During the singing Of the verse
which Immediately preceded the litany
an invocation of the Saviour for pity
the man became more unnerved, and
those around him could hear his short,
quick breathing and perceive that he was
weeping. But the climax was reached
when the officiating clergyman Began
to read the commandments and the
choir sung the responses. When DR..
Mcconnell sOlemnly read, Honor thy
father and thy mother, that thy days
may be long III the land" etc, the man
could restrain himself no longer. He
broke out into sobs, and in emotion cried
out audibly, so hat all around him
could hear him, Would to God | had
done sol would not be where | am
now!' His emotion touched deeply
many people in the vast congregation,
who wondered what story was hidden
IN this mans life.

FOR THE FLOOD-STRlCKEN
GubernatOrial Appeal for Aid in
Illinois.
A Proclamation Issued by GOV. Fifer
as TO the Sufferers in Flood.
ed Districts In the
State.

THE ARGUS is in receipt of Coy. Fifer's
proclamation relative to the food strick-
en- districts along the Mississippi and Hill
nois rivers. the gubernstorisl appeal be =
ing as follows:
STATE OF ILLINOIS -ExEcUTIvE OF
FICE-Springheld, May "a, 1S92-Per.
sonal observation of the flooded districts
along the Mississippi and Illinois rivers,
embracing many hundred square miles,
convinces me that organized effort on the
part of the people of the state is neces-
sarY for the relief of the destitute and
needy. Thousands of men, women and
children have been driven from their
homes and rendered destitute Neigh-
boring communities are now carrying the
entire burden of supporting those whose
homes and property have been
swept away, and this bur-
den ought not to be borne much
longer without outside assistance. The
flood sufferers are mainly of the agricul-
tural class, and the possibility of their be-
coming again supporting depends
upon their ability to raise a crop and re-
sumo their vocation as tillers of the soil.
Now, Therefore, l call upon the people
Of the state of Illinois to contribute of
their abundance, money. food and cloth
ing for the relief of those who have suf-
| fered from the foods. l urge the local
authorities in all cur cities and towns to
hold public meetings to the end that OPP
2ortunity be given our people to show,
in practical manner, their sympathy
and charity for those who have suffered
severe losses and who are in need of as.
sistapce.
l suggest that contributions in money
be sent to the Hon. Edward s. Wilson,
State Treasurer, Springfield. Illinois,
and that contributions of food and
clothing be sent to DR.. William A
Haskell, President of the State Board
of Health, Alton, Illinois. These gentle
mel will, in behalf of the donors.
promptly and Judiciously make distribu-
ton of all money and supplies received
by them. By the Governor,
JOSEPH W. FIFER.
/. N. PEARSON, Secretary of State.
The governor accompanies his pro-
clamation by a personal letter to the
ARGUS in which he urges assistance
and corporation in the matter of the
appeal. He has pers onslly seen the
desolation and knows the wants and
s1fferings of the unfortunate.
In our sister state of Iowa, THE
ARGUS may add, proclamation by Gov
ernor Boies on the S .me subject met
with liberal response all over the state
and Illinois will do so. The ARGUS
would like to see systematic effort
made in Rock Island and would be
happy to assist such movement in
any way possible.

a New Change in the a.. IL. Il. n r.
Time Card and the Transfer of the
COaches-GeneraI Railway Notes.
Very few changes will occur in the
running of trains on the c., r. l. & P by
the new time card that goes into effect
tomorrow. No. 2 going east in the
morning will leave thereafter at TAO iu-
stead IT'S. The night express east that
formerly left here at Ills will leave at
1927 and the main line west in the eve
ming will leave at $50 instead of 1870,
and new train will be put on that will
leave over the southeast division at TAO
p. m. A private car containing General
Manager Allen and number of other
officials visited the city last night and
again looked over the ground. 1t was
decided to transfer the making up of
trains from Davenport as soon as possi>
BILE, and the first will be begun tomorrow
night. The coaches will be kept in the
east end of the round house at present.
This will bring several new crews of
trainmen to the city at once besides
number of men employed in making up
trains, coach cleaners. etc.
A new order has been issued by Gen
eral Yardmaster Swan to the effect that
hereafter all conductors and brakemen
cabooses and their exact residence on a
register in the ysrdmaster's office, so that
they car easily be found at any time, and
also providing that any change Of resi-
dence must be Immediately noted on the
register.
All the roads have been adding new
coaches to their local train services dur
ing the last few months and the c., B. &
@. is the latest to come out with some
very handsomely painted and furnished
cars.
The earnings of the St. Paul road
for the third week in May show q de-
crease of S5,736 as compared with the
previous week of last year. The de-
crease is due to the floods.
Passenger business. despite the late
floods, has been exceptionally good on
all the roads, and there is also q very per-
ceptible increase in freight business DUR
ing the last few weeks.
