One Chinaman Who VIII
Be Moved.

The Chinese who have been ordered
Ito vacate their quarters on Park av-
enue and Birch street are not going to
give up their cabins without a SQUAD
ble which may get into the courts.
They were notified some time ago TO
leave, but after skirmishing about they
were unable to find a place that they
could rent and they therefore seem IN
c1ined to hold the fort. One of their
humber recently purchased lot and, 1t
Dis said, they intend to build thereon
quarters for themselves, but SO far
they have not broken ground. In the
meantime. the owners are crowding
them out as fast as possible. the IN
hention is to erect on the site of China
town brick corner in the spring.
I The Chinese have been tolerated dur
Ding the past year, and, though antagon-
fzed in all the teachings OF the labor or
PLANTATIONS, the fight was not made ac-
lively and John managed to live. so
dong as John lives he is doing very well,
and when let alone he does not have
much trouble in making the living that
lis very humble one.
With the addition to the population,
however, the Chinese prospered, and
have Increased in numbers very rapidly
during the year. The recent revival
of the interest in some of the unions
has led to a renewal of the warfare on
the cheap-labor Mongolians.
The property-owners of the city were
warned not to rent to them, and the
men who recently acquired Chinatown
ordered the celestials to vacate. They
have been jumping sidewise ever since
and as last resort have engaged an
attorney to look after their interests,
and are to hold their tenements as long
as the law will allow.
A distinguished guest is visiting in
Chinatown. and while he is here the
China boys are arranging to send as
many of their dead comrades back to
China as possible. There are not many
of the bodies now in the graveyard,
most of them have been exhumen and
sent home a year ago. The visitor is
Al Quong from Frisco, and he is a
specialist in the art of preparing the
bones of his deceased countrymen for
the long voyage to the F'lowery King
dom, which is the only good place"
for a dead Chinaman to await the
judgment day. AL Quong knows just
how to take a body and scrape the
bones, how to wrap them in towels and
clothes, how to pack the remains in
the small tin box. and what is more
important still, how to guard ii from
the clutches of the Evil One in transit.
He is therefore a very honored in
dividual by his brother Cinnamon be-
cause someday he may scrape their
bones and box them for shipment
across the water. He is a regular
Mucckie hi.
His special mission here now is to
TX up Ii Kong. who died in French
gulch some years ago and who, 1t is
thought by this time, will be good
TO take up.
Sam Kee was looking for Health Of
fcer Spilman yesterday and when the
necessary paper" is secured the body
of Kong will be exhumed and returned
to the land of his ancestors, where 1t
will be forever at rest in sacred jar
on the banks of the Yanktse Kiang.

Two Men From Carroll Up Before Judge

When James Curran came up from
Carroll Wednesday morning he was
mad and he had a lump over his eye as
big as a goose egg, which made him
look as ugly as he felt. The object of
his wrath was John Lynch, his room
mate at Gavin's boarding house. Cur

told him his woes and wrongs and a
warrant was issued for Lynch for as
sault and battery. The two confront

The Feast OF Purim .

The feast of Purim which is being
celebrated by the followers of the
Hebrew faith, is an important festi-
val, held in grateful memory of the
good queen, Esther, and is marked
by poems of thanksgiving, friendly in
tercourse, and an outpouring of gifts
to the poor. In the significance of
the word Purim there stands the I'M
fading memorial of the peril to the
"chosen race" imminent at the time,
when the nobility, sweetness and
beauty of Queen Esther prevailed
over the homicidal Vaccinations of
the cruel Hannah. For the Hebrew
word "Pur" from which Purim is de-
rived. signifies dot" Hannah had
''cast lot" to consume and destroy
the Jews. 1t is recorded that the
first triumphant celebration of the
festival of Purim was devoted by the
participants to sending offerings one
to another and gifts to the poor.

Our Congressional Candidate.

Fred X. Bastian, of the Fulton
journal, democratic candidate for
congress in the Tenth district, is in
the city. MIR. Bastian is already
familiar with Rock Island county.
being no stranger here, and is brought
nearer to us by the joint interests OF
Rock Island and Whiteside counties
in the Hennepin canal. While repre-
senting a river town like our own, he
realizes what the inland waterways
are to our internal commerce. He is
also familiar with the importance of
Rock Island arsenal. He believes in
the government control Of postoffice
buildings on business principles and
is in thorough accord with the pub
lie building idea. and says that
no effort should be spared to have
immediate operations begun on the
Rock Island building. Although con-
fronted with q strong republican
majority in the district, Mr.. Bastian
is undaunted. He is fighter, has
been so all his life. and if the repub-
licans think he is going to lay down
and let the district go without a
struggle they will find their mis-.
take. In fact, he is a candidate fol
election and will be so until the poll:
close on election day.

The Boys Story.
The Lost Paradise.

At the Burtis Sunday evening,
March II, a substantial play is to be
presented by competent company.
and headed by that sterling actor,
William Morris, is sure to crafty the
appetite of the theatre-going public
next week.
The Lost Paradise" sustains the
reputation it first gained when it
made such a pronounced success at
it's initial performance in New York
City. 1t comes to us as a we'll recog-
nized old friend, and those who have
witnessed it invariably wish to re-
new the acquaintance. In placing
Mr.. Morris in the stellar ranks, Mr..
Frohman has certainly struck the
chord of approval. In the role of
Reuben Warner, MIR. Morris has
achieved a lasting success. Of the
many other roles, he has interpreted
that of the uperintendent of the
mill, endeavoring to acquiesce to the
demands of the grasping monopolist,
so far as reason will permit, he feels
compelled to defend the workmen
whose rights have been trampled
upon. BY his vigorous assertions OF
what equity consists, he brings out
of chaos a most harmonious ending.
The entire construction of 1.-The
Lost Paradise" interests the audience
throughout, and sense of relief il
felt when the curtain falls upon a
general arrangement in which justice

committed suicide last night at his

street. that city, with q razor. De-
ceased was a years of age. and for
the past three years has been suffer-
ing from nervous prostration. He
was in his room at 9 O'Clock, when
one of his daughters entered the
room for the purpose of ascertaining
if he desired anything before retir-
ing. She saw him standing by the
bureau with a razor in his hand, and
ran for help. M
From Ear to Ear.
Before she could return to the
room he was PROSTATE upon the floor
with a cash in his throat from ear to
ear. She was so frightened at seeing
him with the razor that she could not
tell whether he had committed the
act before she first entered or not,
but thinks he had, as the time she
was out of the room was so short
that he had hardly had time to do it
in the interim. Drs. Cantwell and
McCourtney were Immediately
called, and reached the side Of the
dying man not over five minutes
after it happened. All efforts to re-
lieve him were Of no avail, and he
expired at midnight.
William 4. Mackay was an old res.
ident of Davenport. He was engaged
for years in the grocery business, bu,
for some time past had not been &C.
lively employed at anything.
Deceased leaves nine children, all
grown, five of whom are married and
four unmarried. He had not beer
known to have entertained suicidal
intentions. and the act will prove
a severe blow to his friends and rel
atives.
