Missionary Work,

The Woman's Missionary society of the
Brosdwsy church held its fourth annual
praise meeting yesterday afternooon.
Notwithstanding the irclemency of the
weather there was good attendance from
Davenport and Milan. as well as one from
our own city. A very interesting pro-
gramme was rendered which consisted
of greetings from sister societies and re-
sponses. information about the work in
the home and foreign fields. prayers,
songs and recitatiops. At the close of the
meeting, which was truly delightful and
inspiring, ADVERTISEMENTS were served
and little social time enjoyed.
The praise Offering" amounted to
about 500.

Tried to Rob a Priest.

OLNEY, H., March 5-Early Thursday
morning two burglars effected an entrance
into the residence of Father j. B. Schnel-
tor, priest OF the Catholic church in this
city. After robbing his servant of
small sum of money one of
them entered his ROOM awak
ening him. He sprang toward the bur-
glar, who fired two shots at him without
effect. The priest grappled with him and
threw the thief downstairs and ran both
of the men out of the house. There is no
clew to the burglars.

MADE A RELIEF DISTRIBUTION.
The Looted Provisions Divided in an Or
derly Manner.

The Looted Provisions Divided in Or
DERBY Manner.
Then there was strange scene. I'm
mense piles of stolen meat and bags of
flour were gathered at convenient spots
and the work of equal distribution began.
Sturdy rioters guarded these stores of pro-
visions, while others measured out the
meat and -four to the starving men. Each
man as he approached the distributing
point was asked how many people he had
in his family, and UPON the number being
given he was handed piece Of meat and
q measure or two of flour, according to the
needs of his household While this work
of distribution was going on skirmishing
parties of rioters were keeping the police
who were greatly outnumbered, at bay.
Did Their Work Thoroughly.
Other skirmishing parties e1nptied wine
stores, grocery stores, and other places
where food and drink was to be had, until
every man among the rioters had laid in a
stock OF provisions Of some kind or
another. The mob, in spite of this rioting,
was orderly, if such term can be applied
to rioters. The magistrate to whom they
had first gone appeared and besought them
to GO home, promising that they would be
dealt leniently with, but a spokesman re-
piled to the effect that the magistrate had
better leave them alone. They were de-
termined to have bread for their families
IL the streets ran red with blood.
Most Model Mob.
Hishonor retreated, and when, during the
excitement, one of the mob fired pistol,
his companions set on him took his pistol
away and gave him, sound humping.
Another one of the mob with anarchistic
ideas set fire to bake shop just looted.
Declaring they were not anarchists, his
companions threw him back into the
blazing house and made him put the fire
out or roast OF course the police were
not idle, but for long time they could
make no Roadway against the mob. They
were victorious at the end, however, and
succeeded in dispensing the rioters.

GEN. GiLCHR;ST'S SCHEME.
the Henn, pin Canal without Locks
Walked Over the RouIe.

the Henn, pin Canal without Locks
Walked Over the Route.
Gen Gilchrist has completed his ex-
plorations of the Hennepin canal route
made in search of line on which he
thinks could be located a canal built en-
tirely without locks. Yesterday he adj
dressed the Davenport Business Mems
association on his proposed scheme. Gen.
Gilctrist has entertained the idea that
route fo- the canal might be found that
would be free from locks, and it is on
this line that he has been working. Sew
eral weeks ago he covered the entire dis
lance FIR N the mouth of Rock river to
Chicago, traveTsing some of it two or
three times, and walking in all not less
than 500 miles. He completed the trip
Tuesday, and Thursday he returned to
Rock Island, which has been the base of
his operations.
The general said that bis expedition,
which was somewhat in the nature of
Reconnaissance, had fully satisfied him of
the correctness of his proposition, aud
that canal across the state of Illinois
with 10 other locks than those at the ter~
minal point is entirtly feasible and OF
vastly greater valLe to commerce when
completed, than one with the so odd
locks provided in the engineering plans
of the Hennepin.
The generals plan would render un~
neces AIRY the SO locks on the canal as st
present being constructed, but would ais
obviste the necessity of building the
| Dixon feeder, which is 10 be SO miles
long, the feed water being obtained from
Lake Michigan through Lake Calumet ard
passing along the entire distance TO Rock
river on fall of an inch AID half TO the
mile Gen. CHECKLISTS route clear across
the state is 100 miles, while the Hennepin
and its inadequ connection together
1924 miles in length. Aside from the un-
| impeded navigation secured there would
be great saving in operation of locks
while the greater cost of earth displace-
ment would be great saving in the
operation of locks. while the greater cost
of earth displacement would certainly be
balanced by the saving in the constrIc-
ton of locks ard feeder. AS a tow OF
barges too big to pass through the locks
all at once would occupy Sc hours in the
passage, the saving of time may be i'm
agined when it is stated that the journey
from ore end of the canal 10 the Other
may resdily be made in that time.
Gen. Gilchrist started on bis expedi
ton the latter part of January, walking
the entire sdistsuce to Chicago. As he
went over portions of the route severa
times he walked fully 500 miles in max
ing the trip. He simply compared thu

the result has firmly convinced him that
his theories are correct.
