Myron Jordan, editor of the Moline
Republican Journal. has been called to
Orion to the bedside of his father,
Thomas j. Jordan. who is thought to
be lying at the point of death. Mr..
Jordan was one of the earliest pio-
neers of Rock Island and Henry coun-
ties, and was also one of the first to
undertake that onerous pilgrimage
across the continent to the Pacific
slope in 1s49. About two years ago
his health began to fail, and though
originally man ofsmore than ordi.
nary physical strength he gradually
declined. Several months ago mall

appeared Since then the best that
medicinal science could do has been
tried in vain, and it is feared that his
end is near.

Pulvcrized Cork.

Considerable use is now beng made
of the newly introduced French article
to which the name of subirine has been
given. The substance consists of pull
verified cork of different degrees Of fine
ness, known as i1npalpable, fine, medi-
um and coarse, the pulverization being
effected by very simple means, such as
horizontal giindstone. Among these
tho medium powders have for some
time been employed in the French navy
and by various navigation companies
for painting the sheet iron and parti-
tions of tho insides of vessels. The effect
of such coatings is said.to be to consider
ably diminish the conductibility of the
sheet iron and the vibrations SO un-
pleasant which are produced as soon as
the sea becomes a little rough. Another
use for these cork powders is in the
preparation of a substance called lie
gine, which consists of the powder
mixed with fine plaster in the proper
ton of about 10 per cent. This liegine
composition is turned out in all shapes
and sizes and is stated to be specially
useful as protection alike from heat
or cold, or for partitions, roofs, lofts,
ceilings and coatings of all descrip-
tions; also as packing for boilers, ice
houses, Conservatives, coverings for
wagons. steam pipes, and similar uses
--in short, for the large number Of
cases where it is desirable to maintain
an equal temperature.-New York Sun.

College Notes.
The committee to which was
assigned the duty of extending calls
to fill the chairs of Greek and Swed-
ish at Augustana college has fulfilled
its duty in . manner which will he
hailed with Joy and heartfelt salts
faction by every true friend of the in
stitution. The news we today have
the pleasure of announcing, is as fol-
lows: DR.. Josua Lindahl, ex-state
geologist Of thesstate Of Illinois, has
accepted the call to the chair Of
Greek language and literature. DR..
Lindahrs reputation as scientist is
worldwide, as are also his great
abilities as teacher. Five years ago
he resigned the chair Of sciences at
this institution to accept the position
Of state geologist at Springfield. An
other most important acquisition is
that of DIR. Carl Won Bergen, of
Stockholm, Sweden. who has been en-
gagged to deliver a series of IL lee
lures on the masterpieces of Swedish
literature and mythology. DR.. Won
Bergen is without doubt the most
learned and eloquent lecturer Of
Sweden. and is said to be the ablest
Swedish inguist IN the world. While
it Is not intended that Dr. Won Ber-
gen will fill the chair of Swedish, mis-
lectures will be largely supplement-
ary in this direction. That Angus
tana today glories in exultant Joy
and gratitude at having secured the
services of the above named dis
tinguished gentlemen and profound
scholars, need not be told.

a suitable building will be erected,

A FATAL DRUNK.
Joseph Adams Killed on the
Track.
FELL FROM A O., RL&P. BOX CAR.

Supposed to Have Been Climbing Over
Cars and to Have Fallen on-The Coron-
er's Inquest The Verdict.
Joseph Adams was found dead in
the Rock Island yards about $50
this morning. NJ. F. Haverty, a
switch foreman. employed nights was
busy getting cars near the round
house, when a brakeman in one Of
the cabooses called his attention to =
man lying apparently dead near the
tarck. Mr.. Haverty ran to where
the body was lying. and upon exam
ination found him dead. He went At
once to the yard-master's Office and
reported the death.
Coroner Hawes was notified, and
he summoned jury composed OF
Charles Z. Hodgson. foreman; Ira
Peck, NJ. II. Sexton, Robert Bennett,
Harry f. Brooks and L. V. Eckkart.
The body was taken to Undertakes
Knox's room, and the jury, after ex-
amining it, retired to the coroncr's
Office and held the inquest.
The Inquest.
NJ. F. Haverty was the first witness
called, and he testified to having his
attention called to the body of man
lying near the caboose track in the
Rock Island yards, and that the body
was not lying on the rails, and evil
dcntly had not been run over.
John Roche, clerk at the lunch
counter in the c., X. I. & p. depot.
was the next witness called, and he
testified to having seen the deceased
in the depot at o'clock this morn
ing, and at that time he was drunk.
and was in the company of another
man. About 2 o'clock the man went
out of the north door of the depot.
and that was the last he saw of him
alive. Adams companion, in the
meantime, fell asleep in the depot
and did net leave until 6 O'Clock this
morning. AS Adams was going out
the door, his companion had tried to
stop him, but he would not come
back, saying he was going to Ottawa
on the first freight train.
Identity OF the Man.
Adams is apparently about 2S
years of age, and from letters and a
small book found upon his person. il
was learned that his address was
1913 Leonard street, Davenport. The
supposition is that while he was
clim bing over q hox car, he fell upon
his head. as there are no marks upon
his body, but on the head there is :
small hole on the tcp. and one over
the left eve and near the temple.
The jury returned verdict thai
Joseph Adams came to his deatl
! from causes unknown.

FUNERAL OF A MONKEY.
A Butte City Evangelist Delivers an Ora
tien Over His Body.

Butte City Evangelist Delivers an Ora
tien Over His Body.
A monkey named Jocko, which was
quite character in the business cen
tire of Butte City, died the other day
and Rev. Mr.. Rounder, who has a tab
ernacle there, thought him worthy of
a funeral grafton. So the little body
was placed in a casket and carried sol
EMMY out to the place of worship. Rev.
Mr.. Rounder mounted the platform and
spoke as follows, according to the Ana
conda Standard
"God Almighty gave mankind ten
commandments to show him how to
live right. Jocko was never given any
commandments, yet Jocko in his own
way managed to average up pretty
well with the general run of mankind
even without any commandments.
When Moses brought the ten COM
mandments down from the mountain
there was one commandment which
said: Thou shalt not swear Yet,
judging from what one hears at any
time up and down the street, swe ar
ing with the general of mankind has
come to be considered manly accom-
plishment, and the most fantastic
swearer is the most popular man.
mankind was commanded: Thou
shalt not kill, yet every year murder
becomes more frequent. Then there
is another commandment which man
kind has revised so as to require only
that women shall obey it. In these fin
de steele days the offense is pro-
nounced to be no sin so far as man is
concerned.
"'Thou shalt not covet' was another
command given to man. This does
not apply to any who might desire
that a pack of cards should be COM
posed of fifty-two kings and queens.
'God did not help Jocko along by
giving him any commands, so he did
not know how to do right, but he
seemed to do better than most people
you meet. 1 must admit that Jocko
used to steal whenever he got a
chance, but he was never told by any
body not to steal and with all his
he wanted for his own use. He never
robbed widows and orphans, and he
died with nothing on earth but the
hair on his back.
"Jocko never bothered his head
about whether Fred Ritchie's monkey
was a hereto or not. Not knowing
himself whether he was orthodox or
not, he never wasted any time in try
ing to make everybody else believe as
he did, except when he was after nuts.
He made no pretensions to religion
and he was no hypocrite. Jocko was
not exactly civilized, but he never had
to take the Kelley cure; he never
smoked cigarettes, he never chewed
tobacco. Jocko never had a Bible to
guide him, but he never forgot a
friend and he never betrayed a friend.
"His worst fault was that he was
natural born thief, but he was born
that way. He was never told by his
Creator not to steal, and if there is
Heaven for monkeys I think Jocko is
going to be close up to the throne
with a never-failing supply of nuts
and lettuce, and enough ink to swim

MESA CITY, ARIZONA, OCTOBER %. 1898.
MESA NOTES.

o. D. Merrill of Lehi, came NY to
Mesa yesterday on business.
Mr.. Kerley, the carpenter, is out in
the country rusticating, where he will
stay few days.
The village of Lehi borrowed one of
Mesa's legal fraternity, Judge Woy, to
defend case there yesterday.
Mr.. Kurl, formerly of New York,
but recent investor in property in
Phoenix, came up to look over our fine
country yesterday morning.
Mr.. Ed Burns of Goldfeld, who came
down to Mesa from there very sick
with Inflammation OF the bowels, is
getting along nicely at present.
The Highland school district this year
has an enrolment of % and good pros
poets for more. The attendance last
year was but eleven, SO the desert is as
prolific in the increase, in that line as
it is in the products of the soil.
Merritt Clark and family locate d
near Mesa some eight weeks ago. They
are well suited with their new home
and speak very highly of the country
They also expect many friends from
their old home IN Illinois to settle in
the valley this winter.
Mr.. Graves, of Los Angeles, came rp
to Mesa again this morning. He was
here in June and vent away with a
good impression of the valley and the
Mesa country in particular. He has
now come back for the purpose of
locating.
Jack Newman came up to Mesa yes
terday. He arrived from his mining
district few days ago and shipped
about 81 800 OF the yellow metal to the
mint. Mr.. Newman has invested quite
extensively in real estate in the valley
and is 30 we'll pleased with the results
of these investments that he intends to
try it again.
Mr.. Kin ball yesterday received by
freight the furniture for his new hotel
All the furniture is first class, for above
the average in hotels of metropolitan
cities. The upholsterers and carpe
layers are now busily engaged in put
ting down the carpets and putting the
furniture in position, for the CRANE

Everybody has noticed the drops of
moisture that collect on cold day on
the window panes of a room where a
number of persons have assembled, but
everybody does not know that this
moisture is poisonous. If few drops
be gathered and thrown on a red-hot
stove the evaporation will give out a
strong smell like burning hair or
feathers. The condensed breath con-
tains large quantity of organic mat
ter, and SO is rank poison.
