aloud for aid

She was hailed, and the sufferers

but before they could be removed from
the boat for treatment, four were dead

mention of the visit of two Francis
can SISTERS to this city from the
and in an interview with Sister
Mother Mary Francis, gave the aims
and objects of a hospital project that
had been inaugurated here. As stated
at the time, they were pleased with
the city and its location and deter
mined that if the proper encourage
ment was givenj them. to at once be-
gin the work of establishing a hospi-

improvements. As a result of two
weeks stay negotiations were COM

of William McEniry his handsome
residence on Elm street for consid-
Grafton of $1,000.
Beautiful Location.
The location is n beautiful one and
admirably situated for the site of n
hospital. 1t has a frontage of 173
acres of ground. The house, which
is conveniently arranged. contains 10
rooms, and its location being central
to both Rock Island and Moline, also
ad iacent to the Rock Island road and
being accessible to street cars, makes
it a most desirable site for an insti-

McCONOCHIE'S MISTAKES.
There is a Multitude of Them Coming up
toConfront Him.

Truly, uneasy lies the head that
wears the crown municipal, to him
whose duplicity shall have found him
out. 1t is in just such a predica-
ment exactly that his honor, Mayor
McConochie finds himself at the
present time. He has attempted to
reward one friend at the expense of
another, has striven to secure one
party faction to the utter disregard
smitten the hand that made him, po
litically. and grossly deceived those
who had proven them selves his best
friends. McConochie has proven
himself an adept at fooling his
friends. and there is no appellation
that he so glories in rs to be consid-
cred .'foxey."
Has Practiced Deception
He has. rs said before. been very
successful in practicing deception,
but as the years go by he is finding
out to his sorrow the truth of the
observation of the immortal Lincoln:
You can fool some of the people all
the time; YOU can fool all the people
some of the time, bat you can't fool
all the people all the time SO that
with his pledges to the A. p. A. and
the presence of those vet to be made,
as well as those unfulfilled, his fail
ure to uphold the interests OF the
laboring men, his neglect OF public
improvements, among which the dis
graceful Market square scale shanty
may be mentioned, his repeated dis
position to ignore political and per-
sonal friends, the mayor finds him
self surrounded by circumstances of
most peculiarly embarrassing ma
ture To win the nomination the
MAYOR must make amends for past
acts by promise to do better hereaf-
| ter, he must make apologies
on the one hand by con-
tinuing his deception on the other.
he must prove himself even more of
a political hypocrite than he has al
| ready, in order to capture the con-
vention, and in order to make 4 sue
cessful canvass he must continue the
role with more artitice than ever be-
fore practiced by him.
Resorting to strategy.
To capture the convention he must
! resort to the most cunning strategy.
This he has already commenced. He
has formed 4 combination with his
co-office holders, Capt. Koehler and
DO Haas, and each and everyone of
whom has taken a solemn VOW to
sustain the other, or perish in the Il
tempt. The fun of the situation is
that while the three are standing
stubbornly by the combination now,
not one of them Will imperil his own
chances individually for the preser-
vation of the sacred compact. The
mayor in particular Is in it for Nc
Conochie first. last and all the time.
