The return" postal card-that is,
the double one with the prepaid at
tachment for the answers a fail
ure. rs the postof1ice authorities pre-
dicted it would be, and although
only 12,000,0 900 of them were printed
years ago, the demand has been so
small that the greater part still re-
mains on hand, and 12,OOO,OOO is a
small edition. The total number of
postal cards used last year was $780,
sos, COG, and 1889. 900 of these were
the foreign or international cards
bearing a Scent stamp. There was
a great pressure for the double card
from certain agitators who thought
business demanded it. but it is flat
failure. The officials at the postofiice
department think the reason is that
the return card gets very much
soiled during its first experience in
the mails. and the people prefer to
pay one cent for new and clean one.

James Ginty. of 7o1 Fourth ave.
nue., loaded up on hops yesterday,
and going home about O'Clock in
the evening began to abuse his wife.
Mrs. Ginty called to her sister, who
was down stairs. and when she ap.
peared, Ginty threatened to throw
her down stairs, as she was going
to leave herself liable, she turned
about and descended the steps.
Ginty went in the room and had
some more words with his wife, and
in the affair that followed Mrs. Ginty
tainted. She couldn't remember
this morning whether he struck her
or not, but said that on yesterday
morning he threatened to throw heI
down the stairs. The squire lis.
tened to the evidence, and when i,
was concluded, bound the dear fell
low over in 5000 bonds to keep the
peace 60 days.
No one was on hand to 90 his bail,
and he was sent to the county Jail
where his wife hopes he will stay for
the ensuing two months.

Consolation After All.

The Davenport Democrat finds con-
ISOLATION in this announcement, apro-
pos of the removal of the last of the
division offices from that city to Rock
Island:
1t is learned, unofficially but relia-
bly,, that the Rock Island has ar
ranged for another change of official
headquarters, in which this city is in
terested. OF course the mass of the
people of Davenport will imagine at
the start that some more shops or
Offices are to be moved to Rock ISL
and, but this is not the case. The
Office of W. X. McFarlin, in charge Of
the department of maintenance of
way from Chicago to the Missouri
river, will be brought down from Chi
cago and located at this place. 1t is
stated, in the absence of full and COM
plete figures, that this change will
bring to Davenport more people
than the removal of the train dis
patchers and trainmaster will take
away. The Office that is now in use
Tor these departments just men,
toned, in the upper part of the
Perry street station, will be used 10y
Mr.. McFarlin, and will be fitted up
at once, some changes being neces-
sary. 1t is stated that the transfer
will take place Aug. 1, the date on
which the boys leave here for Rock
Island. The headquarters at that
city for the trainmastcr and the dis
patchers are all in order, or will be
by the time this date arrives. Mr..
McFarlin and his men ought to have
warm welcome to Davenport. He
is being placed here, the officials say,
for the same reason that the other
men are placed in Rock Island-be-
cause the interest of the service
makes it advisable. OF course no
patriotic Davenporter will dispute
that assumption

Their boat Sprang q Leak,

The other afternoon a party COM
posed of George ID. Dunn. w. L. Nc
Crea, +. A. Landon. ID. W. Gould,
W. o. Morrison and George Tattnall,
of Moline. started up the river for
Smiths island in the house boat
owned by Mr.. Dunn and others, in
tow of the steamer Beder. The
house boat had not been used for
some time, and the decline of the
water since it was tied up had left it
stranded in the mud, so that consid-
cradle difficulty was encountered in
getting it off. 1t is thought that it's
being thus out of water had caused
some OF the seams to open SO as to
cause leak. This was observed a
short distance out, but there was
then so much water in the hold and
the boat was filling so rapidly that
it could not be pumped out. The
boat was headed for the shore,
but before reaching it struck sand
bar, where it was left, one end of the
boat being on the bar and the other
in several feet of water.
At the time the boat struck the
sand bar, Mr.. Tattnall was enyleavor-
ing to hold it up by means of a lever,
extending over the top of the Beder
and under rim around the deck of
the house-boat. and when the front
end struck the bar. the lever was
thrown up. catching Mr.. Tattnall's
fingers between it and some portion
of the Beder's works. His fingers
were considerably bruised. After
propping up the house boat and an
choring it. the remainder of the par
ty removed their things to the Beder
and returned home.

PLAYED HORSE.
The Twins ON . Lark Mt Clinton-Other
Games.

The Rock Island team went up to
Clinton yesterday, not to play ball,
but to play horse. The hard hitting
left fielder, Joe Katz, was unavoida-
bly, detained at home. and Kid
Browner was sent up to pitch, and
thus relieve Sonier and Andrews
from unnecessary work. Connors
played left field and Andrews right,
Zeis catching. The club must have
given a horrible exhibition of the
national game, as the team was de-
feated by the Clinton Hustlers 8 to 4.
While the result does not amount to
anything. the club should have
given the people of Clinton what
1000 of them turned out to see
how league club, and one way up
in G at that, plays ball. There is no
sense in hippodroming at any time,
and the game should have have been
played on its merits, no matter what
the consequences. 1t is no credit
either to the local team or to the
league to indulge in anything but
straight ball.
As result 'of yesterdays games
Rock Island leads the race again,
confronting St. Joe today; tomorrow
and Thursday at Twin-City park,
and as these three games are be-
tween the leaders fine article may
be counted on.

LOOKS LIKE A MOVE
The Rock Island Public Build
ing Project.
THE OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION.

supt. of Construction volk Notified to
Have Eight Test Pits sunk-rhc Active
commencement OF Operations seems to
be At Hand.
Are operations to begin on Rock
Islands public building soon?
1t begins to look that wav, prac-
tically speaking. for the most direct
evidence that has yet come was re-
ceived yesterday in the shape of an
official letter to Superintendent of
Construction John VOlk, and signed
by the supervising architect. Ac-
companying the communication is a
plat showing the location of test pits
to be sunk on the site of the pro-
posed federal building at the corner
OF Sixteenth street and Second ave-
nue.. and Supt. Volk is directed to
invite proposals from persons in this
locality engaged in work of this char
acter for sinking eight test pits at
the points shown on the diagram
These pits it is specified must be
sunk to rock, and the successful bid
der must give constant supervision
to the digging and keep and submit
an exact record of the various strata
encountered, with u report of their
respective depths. and the depth of
rock in reference to city datum, and
also depth of each pit below surface
of ground at pit.
Looks Like BUSINESS.
Supt. Volk at once set out to COM
ply with the instructions of the Off
cial document and invite bids for the
test pits and he CONSTITUTES this infor-
nation as an evidence that the gov
eminent is getting ready to establish
the grade for the foundation to the
building.
From this it may be further
Judged that the plan is to get the
foundation in for the government
building this fall, which, let us all
join in prayerful hope, is the status
of the matter.
