RECLAIM LANDS.
Rock Island and Whiteside
Farmers Have a Plan.
WILL FORM A DRAINAGE DISTRICT.

Thousands OF Acres OF Inundated Fern
Property saved by Means OF Dykes and
L.evces at the Mouth Of the ,Docia-ln
wolves . s:5 900 Expenditure.
The farmers of the upper end Of
Rock Island and the lower portion of
Whiteside counties have united in 4
scheme to reclaim a vast area of
farm lands lying along the 'Docia
and subject to i%nundatiOn during the
periods Of the overflow OF the river
mentioned. For some time nj. A.
Gould, a surveyor from Moline, has
been engaged in the preliminar;es
essential to the furnishing of detail
drawings, etc. for a series Of dykes
and a levee in the vicinity of Cordova
and Albany, eight-and-a-half miles in
all. about the mouth of the 'Docia,
and his estimates just completed en-
tail an expenditure of $25. 900, pro-
viding for a fill of 35 feet.
Land to be Reclaimed.
The area'to be reclaimed amounts
to 10, 600 acres, which bottom lands
in times of overflow are inundated bv
from Ii to Is feet. To save and con-
vert this property into farm land a
company will probably be formed and
funds raised by subscription to carry
out and insure the improvements de-
sired.

Am usements.

Darkest America is what AL G.
Field calls his big black boom, an
aggregation of real colored people,
who excel in presenting to the pub
lie a performance SO entirely differ
ent from what has been seen that it
is au entire and new entertainment,
surprisingly original. A typical
representation of plantation pastimes.
Dances of Dixie, songs of the south.
The eccentric humor of the negro
shown in scenes peculiar to those
people, original camp meeting shout
ers. wing and buck dancing, picka-
ninnies, and the greatest assemblage
of negro stage celebrities ever
brought together. This will posi-
lively be the only appearance in this
vicinity OF this company, as they are
on their way to San Francisco,
whence they sail to Australia. thence
to England and the continent, re-
turning to the United States in 1898.
At the Burtis Saturday evening
next.
Probably the best team in the line
of Irish comedy on the stage today
is composed Of Murray & Mack.
whose excellent aud exceedingly
clever work in their successful COM
edy, ..Finnigan's Ball." has done
much to enhance their reputation.
Their comedy is bright, brilliant and
dashing. their dancing is a revela.
ton of g%rotcsque fun. while their
specialtics are unique and startling.
..Finnigan's Ball" is a finely written
and highly entertaining comedy.
Their costuming and stage accessor-
les r elegant and costly. and an
entirely new equipment Of scenery
has been provided this season by
Manager Merritt. Their date at the
Burtis is Sunday night next.
