Plans for an interesting field day
which the Young Mems Christian
Association had under contemplation
have been abandoned. Thus an occa-
zion which the athletes and all in
terested in this form of sport would
enjoy must fall through just bee ,use
the city has no outing park.
The association had under consid-
Grafton the erection Of q park this
summer and even proceeded so far as
to 60 among the people and ask their
financial support for the project.
But it seems the idea did not meet
with the encouragement to which it
was entitled. Then the association
experienced considerable difficulty in
securing suitable site, the one which
was most favored being 90 situated
that it was impossible to btain q lease
on it for any reasonable period. This

the enthusiasm with which the
scheme was first tinged: SO it grad

But it is too bad that the assOcia.

before this. Physical Director Pent-
land has been drilling the gymna-
stun members on vacant lot south
Of Ninth avenue on Seventeenth street
during the warmer months. The as
ISOLATION has quite number OF
wiry athletes and a field day would
accord the boys a chance to display
some excellent talent. The class has
gone through n series of II events in
the outdoor practice which will be
wound up the latter part Of this
month. 1t was the intention to have
the field day exercises in Septem Der
but all plans have been dropped now.
Sports for This Winter.
There will be an abundance OF
sport at the gymnasium during the
approaching winter aside from the
usual routine of events. Hand ball
is being played already aud is becam
ing favorite pastime among mem
bers Of the association.
Indoor base ball promises to be 8

with W. j. Entrikin for the practice
OF his profession in Moline, which
partnership continued for year and
half when it was dissolved, since " hich
time MIR. Moore has continued to
practice alone in Moline.
He was elected city attorney OF
Moline in 1876 for one term and WAS
appointed by Mayor Z. b. Knox in
January, 1884, to fill the vacancy
caused by the removal from the city

he was appointed for another term of
one year. His duties are to advise
the mayor, aldermen and other city
officers. and in connection with the
city attorney to look after the legal
affairs Of the city.
He was for number Of years a re-
publican. but four years ago after
giving the subjebt careful thought
and study he accepted the democrat
ic tenets of tariff reduction and this
year the financial stand of both great
political parties on the money
question strengthened him in his
new political faith. At the
democratic county convention this
spring he was elected chairman
of the county committee, and has al.
ready assumed the functions of the
office with characteristic vim and
| determination.
For Congress.
At the recent democratic congress.

stitute canvass that will result in
his taking from Prince the diadem

have again placed in his keeping. Mr..
Moore proposes to make a vigorous
campaign speaking from the stump
throughout the district, and despite
the odds against him in the district
under the new superintendent he an
ticipates being on the right side OF
