OUR WELFARE,
Several Projects Worthy of
Public Attention.
THE COLUMBIAN PARK IDEA

The Modern Woodmen Omces-The I'M
Pro'ement Association and its Future
Various Matters OF Interest Informally
Discussed-Much Work to be Done for
Rock Island.
Owing to the intense heat and the
threatening storm, the meeting of the
Rock Island Citizens Improvement
association, called by President Jack
son last evening, was not as we'll at
tended as would otherwise have been
the case. Nevertheless. there were n
mum Der of representative citizens
present, and while it was thought
wise to defer the meeting to a future
time when the weather is milder. the
matter to be left in the discretion of
President jackson, there was an in
formal discussion of matters before
the citation, as well as the best
course to be pursued looking to its
reorganization. 1t was the unani-
nous op Mon that the association
should be given a new start, and to
place it on solid and permanent
basis social feature should be
added and new list of membership
secured with that understanding
that new quarters with accommoda-
lions suitable for the introduction of
billiard and reading rooms provided
This matter will be brought up at
the next meeting as demanding the
immediate attention OF the associa-
ton.
The Columbian Park
President Jackson brought up the
matter OF the proposed new public
park in the eastern portion of the
city, speaking of the popular feeling
with which the suggestion TO secure
a portion of the Columbian tract for
such purposes was received, and the
fact that already petition was in
regulation urging the city to take
the necessary steps to purchase a
block of the land for such purposes.
The association had done its work
well so far in relation to its parks
and other public improvements. with
the result that Rock Island had be-
come known as the city of beautiful
parks and streets, and that tie money
expended in improvements of this
sort had come back many fold in the
good it had done the city in adver-
Using.
The Woodmen Offices.
The status of the NJ. w A head
offices was brought up and exchange
OF views was had, the sentiment ex-
pressed being that the local commit
tee SHOULD meet and adopt plan of
procedure in the way of securing
the subscriptions for the purchase of
the lot pledged by the association to
the head officers OF the order, and
that other steps he taken that Will
insure the bringing OF the offices to
Rock Island.

fair. While in Chicago they enjoyed
the particular good fortune of hav-
ing exceedingly desirable rooms,
having secured them in the residence
of DR.. and Mrs. A. w. McCandless on
Sheridan avenue near SiXtv-fourth
street. They were particularly i'm
pressed with the advantage of the
rooms they had when after they had
put in a day at the fair they found
their home within easy walking dis
tance of the grounds. Yet they were
on quiet pleasant street convenient
to number of good restaurants and
cafes.

AMONG THE SOLONS.
The Supervisors Make Abatements-New
Voting Precinct

The Supervisors Make Abatements-New
Voting Precinct.
The board of supervisors put in a
busy session this morning, devoting
itself to the question of Attachments.
The Davenport & Rock Island street
railway company prayed for an
abatement of its taxes from 81, 100 to
81 800 per mile, while the Moline
Central asked 4 similar reduction on
its property. Arguments were made
showing that in no city in the state
were street railway franchises taxed
as they are in this county; that the
highest assessment any where out
side of the city of Chicago. is 5000 a
mile, and the tax on the cable roads
in Chicago does not exceed 81. 900.
The board in tho first place rejected
the petition of Davenport & Rock
Island company, and then reduced
the Moline Central assessment to
$1,000 on T. rail and 81, 800 on tram.
The action on the petition of the
Davenport & Rock Island railway was
thereupon reconsidered and the tax
OH Out JIdCk-dIl TRAM Tal1-Ot Jnat
company reduced to $1,000.
The tax on St. Anthony's hospital
was abated entirely, the board show
ing the proper spirit in this, as in It's
action relating to the railways.
Voting Precincts.
The board has some important
work to do at this session-if a spec
ial session is not called for the pur-
pose-in redistricting some of the
voting precincts of the city. The
law prescribes that where a single
voting precinct shows more than $50
voters the precinct must be divided.
Under this provision the Sec
ond, Third, Fourth, Fifth and
Seventh wards in Rock Island
and the Second and Third
in Moline must be subdivided and
given two voting places each The
township of South Moline asked for a
similar division on the strength of
466 votes cast at the last election,
but the board finds that 50 of those
votes were cast by women, and hence
will let the township remain as it is.

0, WHAT a NIGHT!
Humanity SweIters During the Dismal

Humanity SweIters During the Dismal
Last night was one of the nights
you read about. For an hour or two
after the sun went down great Iurid
flashes Of heat lightning shot
athwart the sky, and people who had
suffered all day with the heat felt
that at last relief was at hand and
that in the course of few hours
there would be delightful down
pour that would cool off the feverish
atmosphere and refreshen things
generally. But, alas! the rain came
not, and even the wind that had
sprung up during the evening got
tired of blowing itself and died away.
Then humanity did catch it. People
who didn't happen to have an east
window to catch the little breeze that
was stirring, lay on their beds and
tossed about, longing for morning to
come again. Many got up and
walked the streets, and many hotel
windows contained white forms of
persons reaching out after breath
of cool air.
This the Hottest Day.
Today was not much better, and it
now looks as though the prediction
of the signal service that Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday of this week
would be the average hottest days OF
Il, iS
the hottest day so far, the signal ser
vice thermometer in Davenport reg
istering a. Notwithstanding the
extreme heat the atmosphere was
tempered by a cooling breeze not
characteristic of yesterday. No en-
enlargement is offered by the wealth
er bureau, as the indications are for
continued hot weather.
Results of the Heat.
William Kurth, of 707 Fourth
street. was overcome by the heat on
reaching home last evening. He was
attended by DR.. Kinyon, and no Sc
rious results are anticipated.
John Russell, lineman in the en-
plov of of the Central Union Tele-
phone company, was overcome by
the heat yesterday and is unable to
work. No serious results are antici-
pated.
A man out rowing in a skiff. oppo-
site Nineteenth street, yesterday af-
ternoon was overcome by the heat,
and was prostrated. He was taken
to his home in Davenport by friends,
who were along with him.
Lon Fletcher was overcome by the
heat while down town last evening.
He was taken to Marshall & Fisher
drug store. where he was given
treatment and afterward taken to his
home on street car.
Henry Butler at work on the Mitsch
building on Third avenue, was over
come by the heat yesterday after
noon, and was conveyed to his home
on Seventh avenue, where DR.. Kin
yon attended him. Nothing serious
resulted.
