and that it will be grave oversight
not to hold another inquest.
sunday At the Farm.
Yesterday proved another day for
sightseeing at the farm and thi.her
a large number Of people went. the
road from Milan presenting an ami
mated appearance from early morn
ing until late at night. Indeed,
there were so many calls for admit
lance that the parties who have
leased the farm with a view to plac-
ing it under cultivation had all they
could do to keep people from tres
passing by taxing up 10 cents at the
gate rather than have them violate
the law.
The storm seemed determined to
wreck its venge ance on the farm this
afternoon. blowing the west end out
OF the barn and reducing part Of the
hay shed. 1t was like q young cy-
clone on the place which has seen so
much destruction OF life.
Shocking Parallel.
There is shocking parallel be-
tween the life of Holmes and that of
Bastian. and while the comparison
has been made before, the extreme
horror Of it has been realized until
now that the arch fend soon to ex-
plate his crimes at Philadelphia has
made his confession, the most

or at least ought to be. looked into.
Charles Reiher Seen.
A representative of the Moline
Mail was in Chicago yesterday On
business and he took occasion 10
make visit to Charles Reiher, to
whom had been attributed the dis
covery of Bastian burying a man on
the farm. Reiher insisted that this
was mistake; that he had seen
nothing of that nature and knew
nothing Of that kind, but he reiter-
ated his former allegation OF witness
ing tragedy near Reynolds. for ex-
posing which he had at the time been
sent to the insane asylum. Reiher
seems to be man of slightly unbal-
anced mind and talks at random, so
that it is difficult to understand what
he does or does not know about Rock
Island county sensations.
Tho Former 1pquest.
Coroner Halves is still awaiting a
consultation with the states attorney
before ordering the reopening OF the
inquest on Fred Kuschmann's re-
mains. States Attorney Searle
maintains that he has not yet fully
decided on what would be the best
cause. The ARGUS believes, how

it. Then he called the groom to one
side and informed him that to wed
in Iowa with q license from Illinois
conGicted with the laws. But it
would never do to have hitch in
the ceremony there, so the minister
agreed to go on with the ceremony
with none OF the guests any the
wiser. Aud so they were married.
The Tie That Binds.
The event was fttingly celebrated.
and at midnight the couple planned
to go to their future home in Rock
Island. By arrangement the minis
ter and few relatives met them at
the depot. All bought tickets for
Rock Island. AS the train was roll
ing over the draw and shortly after
the arsenal clock pealed forth its mid
night stroke the minister and couple
repaired to the rear of the coach.
There the second ceremony was per-
formed. People on the train did not
known what to make Of it. But as
the minister said: The young man
got his license in Illinois and so
had to marry them in Illinois. We
did not want to make scene at
the house; so we quietly agreed on
this plan"
The minister and friends returned

The groom resides on Fifth avenue

daughter of well known livery

license at the county clerks office
here, he repaired to the home of his

gan to assemble. Soon all was in
readiness for the ceremony. The
minister appeared on the scene and
the strains of the wedding march
pealed forth. The groom produced
the license. The minister looked at

bring Out the Sprinklar.

Despite the fact of the balmy,
springlike atmosphere Of yesterday,
the beauty Of the day was marred BY
the clouds Of dust that were swept
whirlwind like on the pavement
aud into the faces Of pedestrians.
The effect was rainous to clean linen
and Sunday raiment and an involun.
tary prayer for the return Of the
sprinkler went out from many lips.
In view of the great convenience to
public comfort the city ought to deal
as kindly as possible with the Sprink-
Ter company this year. The fact
that the sprinkler is direly missed
these days is the best evidence that
the people appreciate its usefulness.

A QUESTION RIPE FOB ACTION.

The New Plan of Ferry Lioenslne and tAa

Ne Reason for Further Dslsy-OtAsr
Matters Requiring Attention.
1t is to be hoped that the city
council win take up the First ave-
nue. track right and levee question at
its meeting tonight and adjust the
long pending and much discussed
question. 1t is difficult to compre-
bend how any Of the eturning al
dermen can consent to these all i'm
portant matters going over until
they have left the council. The
levee subject has Jagged long enough
and no alderman who countenauces
further delay will be enabled to give
plausible explanation for such .
course.
The Railroads and Ferries.
The fact that the city is in posi-
ton now to engage the cooperation
OF the railroads az well as the ferries
in furthering the desired ends makes
it an opportunity seldom presented
and which ought not to be neglected.
The railroad companies are ready to
meet the city in the levee improve
ments. and the suggestion which has
come from an alderman, aud has al
ready been referred to in THE ARGUS,
that the city tax each of the ferry
companies $500 per annum aud ap-
ply the revenue on the levee inn
provement is wise one. The city
at present derives the following in
come from its river front.

The ferry license alone would be

part the railroads will assume the
city may find q practical solution of
the matter which will enable it to
90 ahead without further delay.
Other Matters.
Other matters which will be likely
to commsnd the attention of the
council tonight will be the Twelfth
street improvement and the storm
drain Both are Of the utmost i'm
portsnce. and 1t is needless to saw
that neither can fail 70 be advanced
at the hands Of the council. but it is
not necessary for the city to surren-
der its position on the levee to ac-
complish both of these. The levee
can be made to practically take care
OF itself if the council IL wise and
goes ahead with it now.
There is no time like the present
to put the levee project through.

community. Aud while this is
true, we would like to see every
barroom door in our city closed,
as we believe it would be TO the
best interests of our town and the
community in general.
We do not condemn these bar
room owners for the business they
are engaged in, but we do con-
denim the business, because we be-
lieve it to be detriment to soci-
ETY.; and we also believe that these
men, being as intelligent and req
sonable people as they are, will
agree with us in this; and they will
tell you that they do not like the
business, but are engaged in it for
the money they make; and further
more, will tell you they would sell
out or close up their bar rooms if
they knew what they could engage
in that would make them living
So We are compelled to admit
that these people are not the
worst class of people by any
means. They are sinners and en-
gagged in this business openly, con-
Tossing in many instances that
they are doing wrong; and they
tell Us that there is class of peo-
pie II the churches that go there
10 hide their meauness, and then
ask: care we not better ttan

We answer, Yes.
Bat while there are wolves in

flock, yet there is room for the
real children of Emanuel; ard in
the end the wolves will be sepa-
rated from the good people and
cast into torment, while the real
children will inherit life eternal.
While our friends, the saloon
keepers, are engaged in legiti-
mate business, viewiog it from q
worldly standpoint, yet We hope to
be able TO see these men, whom
we regard as being among the
most intelligent OF, our city, come
over TO the other side, where we
can see a wide field of usefulness
open before them; and when all
is over we trust we may see them

into her mothers room early one
bright, beautiful morning; the
pleasant, komelike room where
Mrs. Lawrence had spent SO many

could fall across her pale face ard
slender hands.

encouraging pat On the plump
hand on the pillow near by.
"WelI, mamma" continued her
daughter, flushing slightly under
meath the gaze Of her mother s
quiet, sympathetic eyes, "you know
how sort of wild ard reckless some
of the boys and girls are III Our
school? We'll, | have decided to
talk to them about the way they
are acting. and then intend
spending all the spare time l have
from my music and studies visiting
the sick" The latter fell from her
lips with a complacency that
brought an amused smile to Mrs.
Lawrcrce's lips, but she replied

watched her start away with q
bright smile which quickly gave
place to a sigh as the door closed

presence made both music and
sunshine in her lonely room.
The days passed by and Doro

Dorothy met with great success:
as "missionary." A general ia
vorite with her mates, they lis
tened to her words of reproof Of
advice and promised to mend theil
ways, aud some even joined the
young peoples society through hel
influence. Many homes, wherein
sickness and sorrow dwelt, were
frightened by her presence. Al
together Dorothy's mission pros
pered, and she was beginning tc
