BRIDGE SEEMS PROBABLE.

The Outlook Favorable for the Rock
Island and Davenport Project.
The members of the ordinance COM
mittee of the Davenport city council
and the river front Improvement
committee of the Davenport Business
Mems association, Frank P. Blair. of
the Davenport & Rock Island Bridge.
Railroad and Terminal company,
and Mr.. Downs, of the Davenport,
Clinton & Eastern Railway company.
met at j. H. C. Petersen's Sons
store there yesterday afternoon from
where they made a trip over the
river front. The object of this was
to get at the differences Existing be-
tween the two companies and if pos
sible secure an adjustment CT them.
The result of the meeting was highly
satisfactory to the members Of the
committees. Mr.. Blair, of the bridge
and terminal company. informed
them that in the event an independ-
ent line was built between that city
and Clinton, his company would
undertake the construction of the
bridge without the aid of the $780,
600 tax, providing the proper fran
chises are given.
Looks Like . Go.
The committees, after looking over
the ground. practically decided upon
giving the bridge and terminal COM
pany a right of way for two tracks
from Iowa street west to the City
cemetery, and to lease to it the tri-
angular tract between Rock Island
and Perry streets, and also q strip
700 feet long by so feet wide between
Mill and Taylor streets, thus giving
to it access to manufactures in all
parts of that city. The D.. C. & E.
company made every concession con-
sistent with its interests.
Reidy Bros. in the past week have
disposed of the following pieces of
real estate:
The old Zeis homestead on Nine
teenth street to A. j. Lloyd for g.
100.
The Henry Case homestead in
South Rock Island, to I. H. Seile for
$4,000.
Henry Harrison's homestead in
South Rock Island to William Free
burg for $1,000.
Mrs. j. c. Welisrs place on Second
avenue and Fourteenth street to
Henry Lamp for 100.
George Metcham's cottage. corner
OF Fourth street and Fifth avenue, for
$3.50.
This is an indication of the way
the spring is opening up and the way
a hustling firm like Reidy Bros. can
keep property on the move in wide
awake town where people are looking
for bargains.

city. "The railroad company has built a
station-that will be taxed; the station
agent who has moved there with his
family has built house-that will be
taxed; a man is getting out wood-that
will be taxed. The city will more than
get its money back. 1t is q financial
success for the city, to say nothing of the
convenience to the people. The people of
North Ellsworth have reaped no benefit
from the high school. The road and
depot will make it possible for them to
send the children to the high school.
There is any amount of ways in which
this road is a benefit. The people of
North Ellsworth have been led all along
to expect that the road would be ac-
cepted, and hope to see it have passage
here tonight"
Possible question to title Of land was
then preached. Mr.. Maddocks stated
that fifteen responsible men of North
Ellsworth had bought the land for the
road from Mrs. James, receiving
warranty deed therefor, and they, in
turn, would give a warranty deed 10 the
city.
Alderman Haynes did not think the
charges for work on the road excessive,
and would be in favor OF allowing the
same i. road WAS accepted.
Alderman Nealley's only objection was
that the road would probably necessitate
additional expenditure in the spring
when the frost came out of the ground.
The report was finally accepted.
Alderman Maddocks presented reso-
luton to pay the amount asked for and
accept the road. The aye and nay vote
was doubted by Alderman Means. Be-
fore the second vote was taken by roll
call, Mr.. Maddocks withdrew the original
motion and presented the following:
Voted, That the sum of S3l076 be paid
the persons as reported on the North
Ellsworth station road, when the city
shall have received a warranty deed, and
shown that no other costs are to be in
Cured, and that the mayor be authorized
to draw his warrant for the same.
Two voices We're heard in the affirma-
tive, none in the negative; but this time
the vote WAS not doubted.
Meeting adjourned.

LAST REGULAR MEETING OF
THE PRESENT BOARD.
THE NORTH ELLSWORTH STATION
ROAD ACCEPTED AND BUILDERS
ENTHUSIASTICALLY VIEW STREET
EXTENSION.

The board of aldermen held Il three
hour session Monday evening. 1t was
not the amount of business that caused
this long session, but the consideration
OF the North Ellsworth station road re-
port, which was presented.
1t has all along been understood that
this road would be accepted and the
builders reimbursed for money expended
on it, when the depot was completed, and
the people of North Ellsworth have been
given so to understand. But when the
report was presented, and the matter
came before the board, there seemed a
Discrimination on the part Of members of
the board to place themselves on record
as favoring the road.
The discussion was at no time ami
mated. The report was allowed to lie
idly in the centre Of the table, or was
pushed slowly and solemnly from one
member to the other. The aldermen
gazed intently at it, bordering deeply;
Alderman Maddocks, the champion OF
the road, glanced searchingly from the
face of one alderman to another, like
boxer, looking for an opening. Occa-
sionslly the spirit would move some mem
Der, and his voice would break the still
ness as he advanced some opinion or
suggestion.
REPORT OF THE MEETING.

gins in the chair.

West Hancock.
IN MEMoRIAM.
At her residence in West Hancock, Jan.
21, Mrs Annie Nj. Dodge passed from her
earthly to her heavenly home. Her
young husband mourns the loss of
beloved and affectionate wife; her infant
son does not yet realize, by reason of his
tender age, the misfortune of being de-
prived of the care and kindness of his
mot her, to whom his presence and sunny
smiles had given such ineXpressible de-
light
Her loving parents, Mr.. and Mrs. James
H. Mcfarland, her three sorrowing
brother and only sister, and the other
members of the family circle, to whom
she was as dear as their own life, are
called to sit in the shadow of a great
aftliction. How much they will miss her
in every place. save in their own hearts
they will always find her there, and her
memory will be sweeter han the violets
of spring.
Her sufferings We're severe, but calmly
and patiently endured, and let us be
her fatal illness lasted only nine days.
Mrs. Dodge had a thoughtful mind,
was deeply interested in books and polite
literature. Singing was her special
talent, and her rich contralto voice gave
pleasure to all who heard it and has
brought comfort to many heart afflicted.
Her counsels were judicious, and bore
oh
She had large company OF friends, who
were closely attached to her by her kind
ly heart, her amiable disposition, and
gentle manners.
She was called from this world, SO
checkered with sadness and sorrow, in
the morning of life, as she was but
thirty-four years of age at her death. 1t
was pathetic incident that she had
moved into her new cottage, arranged
and fitted up by her superior judgment
and good taste, only four weeks, when
she was summoned to her home in
heaven, there to meet the many loved
ones gladly waiting to receive her.
"Thus lived, thus died she;
Never more on her shall sorrow light.
She was not made, through years or moons,
The inner weight to bear,
Witch colder hearts endure
Till they are laid, by age, in earth"
The funeral services We're conducted by
Rev. David l.. Yale, of Ellsworth assisted
by he choir of his church, at the home
of her parents, Jan. "a. About two hum
bred relatives and friends were present to
pay last tribute OF respect to our dear
Annie, who was esteemed by all who had
enjoyed her friendship, seen her bright
smile, and heard he music of her voice.

OBITC AIRY.

Nellie NJ, wife of George E. Pierce,
died at her home in Lamoine after long
and painful illness, Jan. 81, aged forty
eight years.
Mrs. Pierce was a lady OF much energy
and force of character. She was faith
full wife, kind mother, and the sick and
suffering always found in her a true
friend. During her illness of two years
she was patient, and her intense suffering
was borne without a murmur. All that
loving hearts could suggest was done to
relieve her pain.
Her death falls heavily on her aged
mother for whom she cared for several
years. The husb band and children mourn
the departure of faithful companion
and mother. They have the sympathy of
the entire community in which they live.
"a precious one from US has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love hid given;
And though the body sumbers now
The soul is with him who gave"
w
