Unique Affair Given by Children at First

Unique Affair Given by Children at First
Baptist Church.
The Sweet Sixteen" social given
by the Junior union of the First Bap-
list church, in the church parlors last
evening, was a grand success in every
particular. Over $50 of the little
ones and their friends were in attend
ance. The program was unique in it's
makeup and consisted of recitatiOns,
instrumental and vocal solos, duets
and drills, which were all rendered so
perfectly that it would be hard to dis
criminate by comparison. The sing
ing by Miss Halle McCrory and Mas
ter Mitchell especially showed much
study and practice. The fan drill by
the little girls and the gun drill by
the boys were very nicely performed.
Refreshments were served free to all.
The whole entertainment showed the
effect of the earnest work of the teacher
and leader, Miss Maude Mabie.

THE PAST AND THE PRESENT
The Unions Misr.p presentations as to
Slot Machines.

Slot Machines.
The Union is much YeXed that the
announcement should have been made
that the slot machines recently ban
ished by order of Mayor McConochie
were not permitted to exist in Rock
Island during the administrations of
Mayor Medill, and gives utterance to
the deliberate prevarication that mot
a machine was in operation when
Marshal Miller issued his mandate
which was not doing business when
the Medill administration surrendered
the municipal reigns. Detective PEN
der himself, who as Mayor Medill's
marshal, probably has knowledge of
the facts, will not deny that this
is true" Both the Union and Chief
Miller know the absolute absurdity of
this assertion, and no stronger proof
of the weakness of such a statement,
prompted as it is by Miller himself,
could be adduced than the suggestion
that former Chief Fender will not deny
the assertion. Realizing that Fender,
an officer under the existing admins
tration, would hesitate to indulge in
invidious comparisons affecting his
chief under any circumstances, the
latter has no computations about
placing one of his officers at such
disadvantage.
The occasion will not readily be re-
called when there has been in Rock
Island such an cutlery among the peo-
pie as has existed with reference to
gam bling devices of the character re-
Gently ordered removed, or of a stu
alton in the governing of public
affairs becoming so odious that the
ad administration was obliged to admit
its own weakness in the face of pull
pit protests and exposures. The
ARGUS has never been disposed to
magnify the evils of the community
for the mere qualification of doing 50.
nor has it felt justified in INDUCING in
reference TO Rock Island
when placed side by side with other
cities of like population. But if the
Union or Mr. Miller want any compar-
isons as between the past and the
present either can be accommodated to
the fullest extent

wife has been arrested in St. Louis

public is familiar with the find
ing in the Merimac river, a few
months ago. of a dismembered body,
but this is the first time Moline has
been associated with the tragedy. and
the fact has not yet been established
that she lived there.

EVENT ON GR|D|RON,
Meeting Thanksgiving Between
Universities of Illinois
and Iowa.
GAME AT TWELFTH STREET PARK

Both Elevens Prepared for the Struggle.
Which is Expected to Be One of the Most
Exciting of the Season In the West-Ex-
oursIons to Be Run From Iowa City.
Peoria and other Points.
As Thanksgiving day approaches
the popular interest increases in the
foot ball game the university of Iowa
and the university of Illinois teams
will play here on that date.
The Rock Island baseball park was
selected as the location of the game,
as it is more centrally located than
any other grounds. Reserved grand
stand seats will be on sale in Moline,
Rock Island and Davenport at the
stores where opera house tickets are
reserved, from next Tuesday till Sat-
urday night only.
The unusual strength of the COM
peting teams is attracting interest all
over the two states. Special trains
will bring parties from Peoria and
other points. A delegation of over
1000 rooters will accompany the
Hawkeye team from Iowa City. Re-
duced rates will be granted on rail-
roads entering the tri-cities. 1t is es-
timated that 5000 people will see the
game.
The IIlinoisans are working faith
fully with one object in view, the de-
feat of Iowa. The outcome of this
struggle between these two teams will
be awaited with as much interest as
that of any other Thanksgiving day
battle on the gridiron. Illinois has
played hard schedule this year, and
despite one or two reverses, has made
Il very creditable showing. Only a
strong team could have held the great
Michigan team to Il score of five, as did
Illinois. That Pat O'Dea was able to
kick out % points for Wisconsin must
not be taken as sign of weakness on
Illinois part. The wearers of the
navy blue and orange have two games
yet to be played before their supreme
contest with Iowa. One is with Pur
due next Wednc sday, and the other
with Washington at St. Louis the Sat-
urday following.
Iowa is Strong.
1t will be strange if Iowa does not
become Il prominent factor in the
championship series next year. In
deed it may be said that the old gold
team is entitled to some recognition
in connection with the championship
estimates this year. 1t has up to the
present n record with but one single
spot-the place-kick Chicago scored
Oct. Z. Iowa's touchdown in the
same game, however. tied the score,
and it was noticeable that the Chi
cago press unanimously pronounced
the playing of the visitors as far bet
ter than that of the maroons.

He, indeed. wished to procure us informa-

Dreyfus Makes Prompt Denial
When Dreyfus was asked the regular
question he said:
IT will reply direct to the secretary Of
the ministry OF war. who said he saw me
in the Offices after hours. As regards
Gen. Come, I am surprised that the gen
eral officer repeats dinner-table gossip.
There Is known to be insurmountabie diff
ficulty in introducing any one into the
ministry Of war, and 1t II absolutely i'm
possible for an officer to bring any one
into the ministry
To this the general replied: mo doubt
1t il difficult"
Col. Jouaust-No doubt Il II difficult. but
It Is not impossible. The ministry can be
entered easily enough at certain hours.
Dreyfus was in q position 10 know that.

The Prsoner-I will reply to Secretary
Ferrel, who has told lie. What have
to say to Gen. Come is that every time
. friend came to see me at the ministry,
even when . French officer. was obliged
to descend to the hoor below, and even
members OF the chamber Of deputies who
called on me could not enter the ministry.
1t was consequently absolutely impossible
under ordinary circumstances for a sub
altern TO bring anyone into the ministry.

After the witness had asserted that
while the name Of Dreyfus was often
mentioned in the documents In the pos
session OF the intelligence de. artment.
his innocence was nowhere limited at.
The general then proceeded to defend
De Clam from the insinuations OF Col
Picauart. and corroborased Gen Mer-
cier's evidence In regard to the alleged
confessions made TO Capt Lebrun-
Renauit. Witness learned. however. that
Capt Lebrun- Renauit. 'fntimidated by
