Let Them Rim.

1t will be remembered that last
Saturday. there was quite a serious
runaway across the Milan bridges.
The team causing the excitement be-
longed to Matthew johnson, resid-
ing east of Milan, and was in charge
of his son William when the affair
occurred, and in " hich several con-
veyances narrowly escaped collision.
one of them occupied by Mrs. j. C.
Burgoyne aud daughter. of Andalu-
STA, having a wheel taken off and
overturning the occupants onto the
bridge. fortunately without injury.
Upon learning of his wife's expert
ence Mr.. Burgoyne was somewhat
indignant and commenced an inves-
tigation as to who was responsible.
Mrs. Burgoyne's rig was collided
with on one of the bridges and but for
her presence OF mind in quickly
turning out she might have been
hurled over the railing into the
stream. The team originally started
running away at APpel's store in
Searstown. Between the first two
bridges is the toll station, which is
provided with gates and a man to
adjust them. Mr.. Burgoyne asked
Gate Tender Nelson why he did not
at least attempt to check the runa-
way team by closing the gates as is
his duty. Mr.. Nelson simply re-
piled that he did not propose to have
things demolished by the runaway
team. OF course Mr.. Nelson don't
consider the imperiling of human
life matter Of much moment. Mr..
Nelson is stationed there as a public
servant and he must remember that
his duty is to serve the people.

The Indications.
A Deserted Husband,

Miles Judge. of this city, has pro-
ceeded in the circuit court against
his wife. Mary Judge. for absolute
divorce on the grounds of desertion.
According to the husbands state
ment he and Mary Mulligan were
married in August, 1898, and one
day in the third month of their con-
nubial happiness she disappeared
from his humble abode and never re-
turned, deserving him without any
reasonable provocation, SO far as he
knows. The complainant further
represents that his wife has contin-
ued to absent herself from the COM
pany of her husband. Now he wants
the contract broken and has en-
gagged the services of McEniry & Nc
Entry to represent him.

TOPIC OF WEATHER
Two Sides to the Rainfall
Question.
BENEFICIAL AND DETRIMENTAL.

Farmers Hail 1t, But Merchants Think It
Says the Weather Clerk The Indica-
lions.
The weather we have with us
always may be termed construc-
ton recently impressed upon the
mind of an old observation. While
the people always have the weather
with them, they do not know it
until something unusual happens.
At this season Of the year the public
generally has something more on its
mind than the state of the ele-
ments in anticipation of the joyous
Christmas tide, but the unusual con-
ditions which have prevailed for the
past few days, which began with a
surprising little shower, which it
was thought would be of but momen-
tary duration, but which has hung
on day after day until it has assumed
a semblance to monotony bordering
on the nuisance. has begun at last to
absorb public attention. How much
longer is this going to last?" or
well, it is still raining!" or .'More
rain!" have become customary salu-
tatiops on the street, and people
generally have gone to bed at night
in prayerful anticipation of bright
er daybreak on the morrow. But it
has been one continuous round of
disappointments. The ominous clouds
have kept faithful vigil through the
night to envelope helpless beings
with dismal dampness the succeed
ing day.
Satisfaction and Dissatisfaction.
The result has been an effect of a
directly opposite nature on two
classes of human pursuit. The
farmer is delighted while the mer-
chant is blue The agriculturist
says the rain is just the thing and
that if it will just stop before it
starts the grass to sprouting or the
trees to budding he will be satisfied,
but for the present-let 'er come.
The business man considers the rain
the most inopportune thing that
could happen. 1t is killing his holi
day trade that would otherwise be al
its height now, but he is cheering
himself with the hope of a clear u!
by tomorrow night and then rush.
which he is ready for.
The Indications.
Observer Walz, of the signal ser
vice corps. reports fall of one-and
a-half inches since the present storm
set in. and his representations ar
that the rain may continue withou
abatement for another day at least
although it may turn into snow o
sleet. In the present view of tn
case old Boreas will be welcome a
any time.

CONTRAST rs SEEN.
Modern and Ancient Means of
Fire Fighting.
oBsERvANoEs OF A CITIZEN.

He Recalls How the Disciplined Force
Tackled the Situation Here and How
the Belated Service Went 1T In Mo-
line.
II could not help congratulating
myself that Rock Island had paid
fire department., well disciplined and
prompt in SERVICE" said a citizen of
Rock Island who is called to Moline
weekly on business, on his return
last evening, "when saw and con-
trasted for myself the methods en-
ployed here in fighting a fire and
those still in vogue in a city not
familiar with the improv ed methods
of modern times. Now it is not my
purpose or intention to cast discredit
or make improper reflections on the
ways of Moline, but the fact is not to
be disguised that the contrast be-
tween old and new systems has been
SO forcibly presented by the two
cities in the past few days that 1
cannot restrain from giving express
sion to my feelings in the matter.
Two in Question.
1.-The two fires in question which
have come under my immediate no.
tice include the one in the Adams
Express Office here 10 days ago and
the one in the basement of the John
Deere building, Moline, early yester-
day morning. saw the after-effects
OF both. In the one here the dam
age was, through species of art in
fire-fighting born only of experience
and discipline, confined to the por-
ton of the building in which it
started and the progress of the ele-
ment Of destruction checked in every
direction, and that with little dam
age by reason of water, and no de-
struction to any part of the building
other than that in which it origi-
mated. In Moline the fire started in
a basement, while the chief damage
was done to the stores on the floor
above, mainly through water and
partly through smoke. The firemen
fought bravely. am told. and did
the best they could, but they had
none of the advantages of a paid SER
vice, and hence the property holders
suffered"
Cheek of a City.
The gentleman who thus related
his observations, it may be said,
brought them up in support of his
remark that he had become a con.
vert to the wisdom of a paid depart.
ment. He had all along during the
agitation of the subject opposed it as
luxury, but when he saw the prac
tical demonstration of the working OF
the old and new methods he acknowl
edged his conviction. 1t should fur
thermore be stated that the advoca.
cy OF paid fire department does moi
necessarily involve an attack on the
volunteers or a criticism of theil
services. On the contrary the citi
zen who without compensation anG
purely through public spirited mo
tives arises from his bed in the nigh
to save his neighbor's property i.
entitled to all praise aud credit
but it is pretty cheeky proceeding o
any city to ask him to make the sac.
rifice and take the risks that he doe
without compensation.
A paid fire department is as essen
tial to first class city as a paid pc
lice force.
