city will be in position to carry out
Mayor Medill's long cherished project
of going before congress for suita-
BILE appropriation for fine harbor.
1t is agreeable to know that the
railroads interested on First avenue
have come together and buried their
differences over the proposed switch
which is reported is to be the entering
wedge TO harmony. This, however. is
not necessarily au argument such as
should move the council to sacrificing
the city's interests. While in this
particular instance the firm attitude of
Mayor Medill that he would consent
to no privileges that would in
vOlve further friction among the
railroad interests in Rock Island.
and that they must reach a mutual
understanding has proven effective,
yet there is nothing that brings Ger
porations to Il unanimity of senti
ment like the getting of one into
tight place. The Terminal company
became helpless and hopeless through
making unreasonable demands. It's
only salvation Law in others COM
ing to its relief. 1t is to be hoped
the tranquil relations thus estab-
lished will continue, and that the city
without sacrifice of the approaches to
the river that the levee is intended to
give, will find herself in a position to
further such happy condition.
Other Matters.
1t is hardly possible that Forty
fourth street will be improved the
present season on account of an error
made by Engineer Darling, and which
necessitated the returning of the bid
of the Edwards IL Walsh Construction
company, with view to inviting new
proposals later on.
Lamont II Son asked permission to
remove their coal and steam boat office
from the levee to a vacant lot on East
Seventeenth street, temporarily, until
such time as they could have a new
building put up in the spring. The
matter was refereed to the fire and
light committee.

a card game that was in progress be-
fore his arrival. A disagreement
arose between the players. Y"1 Bled-

breast.
Bledsoe was afterward arrested and
admitted to bail.

IN Gay Paris" another one of those
popular musical farce productions, was
played to a big house at the Mcguire

amount of fun expected from such
plays. 1t could be improved by elm-
mating some things that are not good
and are not needed to fill out an even

up of speciality acts without regard TO
order, but there is great variety of
them. some of which are very clever
and some otherwise. Max MILAN and
Rem Shields. the comedians, of the
company. are very funny. and did
some excellent work in the second act.
The Fauvette twin sisters. Grace and
Maude are with the show and that
means that the company has one of
the strongest speciality features in the
country. They are marvels in aero
batic dancing. Harry Budworth and
Miss Brimmer did a clever sketch and
the Mohring Brothers, acrobats, are
among the best in the business. Ed
Marsh and Beatrice Langford are
among the others in the company who
did good work. The play will run the
