THE present outlook for winter apple
Is anything but favorable. We had the
promise of full crop. but have never
known apples to be SO universally
faulty as this year. Almost all kinds OF
insects have been at work upon them
and the recent hot, dry weather Is rip

ping badly, and from the present out
look there will be very few apples for
winter that will keep any length of

Company A. Boys Know Something of Sub
ject OF MIIes-Eagan Controversy.
Apart from the general interest in
proceedings of this nature, there is in
Rock Island an unusual amount of
concern in the controversy that has
arisen between Gen. Miles and the
commissarv department of the army
over the meat furnished the soldiers
in the Porto Rican campaign. The
9th regiment of Illinois, of which our
home bows of Company A were 4
part, led the invading hosts under
Gen. Miles immediate command in
that memorable feature of the late
war with Spain, and from the way our
soldiers talked when they came home
they would be very apt to swear by
Gen. Miles, personally and officially,
in what he saws, while from exper-
fence they viii not be inclined to
of the beef the commissary depart
ment permitted to be supplied them.
Besides that, the appearance of the
bows when they returned from the
service to which they had given them
selves for their country's sake, indi-
Gated that they had been fed on en-
balmed food half of the time and the
other half of the time starved. If the
war investigating board wants to
really get at the bottom of things let
it call on some of the volunteers who
suffered for testimony as to the kind
of fare they were provided with.
Facts and evidence should constitute
what an investigation seeks, not the
opinion or the Safeguarding of in
terested army officers.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-

ease when Chamberlain Cough Rem

REPLIES ARE ALL ENCOURAGING

Rockford In Accord With Any Move the
Local Association May Make. and
Suggests Change in the Date-Letters
From Bill Kreig, BeIden Hill and Sidney
Frick-OttumwaAl Also in Line.
Encouraging replies are coming to
the Rock Island Baseball association
in response to its call for n meeting in
this city Jan. % to consider the or
ganization of a league, and the indica-
tions are that there will be such an
attendance of representative baseball
men as to assure the formation of
league that will be a winner.
Rockford, through j. Stanley
Browne, a newspaper man, writes
that she is heartily IN accord with any
move that Rock Island NAV make to-
ward the desired end, and while not
stating definitely, leaves the infer
ence that she will be represented at
the Rock Island meeting, having evil
IDENTIFY called the conference at Dav-
export for the 22d for the purpose of
squirting the local association to act
in the same direction. Rockford sug
gests that the meeting here ne held at
least a week earlier than announced.
Bill Kreig-old Bill, who was ia
vorite member of the Rock Island
team in 1894. and who managed Bur-
lington last season-drops Secretary
Lou Eddy a few lines from Chilli
cothe, Ill, where he is engaged in the
restaurant business. Bill says he is
..wid us" as of yore, and will be
present at the meeting if he can pos
sibly do so. He is of the opinion that
the baseball outlook is excellent. He
would like to see a compact asso-
citation formed, and with a reasonable
expense account and with capable men
at the helm he believes the league
could be made profitable and perman-
ent.
Frick Would be President.
Sidney Frick, of Des Moines, who
guided the destinies of the Quincy ag-
pregation last year, in his letter
states that he will be on deck if The
local association RENTS him $50.
which he claims it is in Arrears to him.
If this demand is favorably consid
cred, the good Sidney announces that
he will not only come to the meeting,
but will consent to be candidate for
the presidency of the proposed league.
How kind.
Belden Hill writes that Cedar Rap
ids will in all probability have two
representatives at the meeting.
Z. p. Adler, writing from Ottumwa,
saws that his town has accepted an
invitation to the conference proposed
by Rockford, and suggests that Rock
Island change the date of her call to
the 22d, to avoid confusion.

CAKE WALK AT WOODLAND.
Largely Attended on Wednesday Night By
Many People From This Vicinity.

There was much interest centered in
Woodland Beach last Wednesday
evening from the fact that a Cake
Walk had been previously announced
as a special feature. Wednesday night
Beach Night at Woodland is always
looked forward to from week to week.
as the one night when there will be
something going on, and in addition
to having Oglesby's Orchestra furnish
music throughout the season, Mr.. l..
z. Campbell quite frequently arranges
some pleasant occasion for the patrons
of this favOrite resort.
On Wednesday night last, the prin-
cipal feature was Cake Walk" TO
be indulged in by local talent. There
were also some walkers from
Wilmington who were expected to par
ticipate, but who were prevented from
coming down on account of the failure
of the "ThOmas Clyde in stopping at
the wharf. Indeed the CLYDE had
more than its capacity when it left
Philadelphia, and was unable to take
on excursionists enroute. As conse-
quence there were only three couples
to participate in the walk on Wednes-
day night. Nevertheless it was highly
enjoyed and was viewed by one of the
largest crowds of the season.
Those who participated were Mrs.
Lydia Cole, Wilmington, and Mr.
James Campbell, of Woodland Beach:
Miss Minnie Permar, Wilmington. and
Miss Mamie Goldsborough, Woodland
Beach; Miss Lille Cole, of Whining
ton, and Mr.. Ellie Perry, Woodland
Beach. They all represented negro
characters, and wore fancy gowns.
The judges appointed for the contest
were: Messrs. William Norris, J. G.
Lassell and &. Davis Brown. At the
conclusion of the walk, a beautiful
cake from Boehmler's Bakery was pre-
sented to the winning couple-Mrs.
Lydia Cole and Mrs. James Camp-
hell.

day, under the James Daley New

it.

DELAWARE'S RICH HARVEST,
WILL REAP OVER 100000 A YEAR FROM
ITS INCORPORATION LAWS.
An Enormous Impetus TO the Resources
OF the State Gained, and Still
the Trusts Come In.

The general incorporation law. en-
acted by the last Legislature, is YER
liable bonanza for the State Treasury.
Up to July %, 139 companies have
been granted charters by Secretary of
State Hughes, the fees for which
amount to $3S, 900, and it is thought
the State revenue in taxes will reach
800, 600 annually.
The combined capitalization of the
companies is $271, 200, 900. The law
went into effect on March II.
Union Chain and Steel Company.
with power to issue stock up to sixty
millions, is the greatest concern vet
chartered, and in the past five or six
weeks it has not been uncommon for
mllllon-dOllar firms to be chartered as
frequently as concerns with stock
amounting to fifty thousand dollars.
One surprising feature is the manner
III which the automobile companies are
t1ocking to Delaware for their charters.
No fewer than six have been incor
porated here recently, and none has
capitalization less than one million.
While Secretary of State Hughes
thus far has received S3S, 7O1, from in
co' 'porated companies in payment for
their certificates, it is estimated that
the taxation on the capital stock of
these concerns will equal one hundred
thousand dollars annually, in addition
to the first figures named. This is to
he paid annually to the Secretary of
State ON the first Tuesday of Jan
uary. When it is taken into consider
alton that the resources of the State
last year, without the incorporation
law, were about $3.50, 900, the enor-
nous impetus to be gained from the
act will be apparent.
At this early date it can be seen that
more than one-fourth of the entire re-
sources of last year have been provided
for from new companies Incorporated.
and just what this revenue will amount
to at the end of the year is a matter of
conjecture. 1t is believed by MANY
that the revenue derived from taxing
capital stock will equal 5000, 900 by the
end of the year. And still there are
more concerns to follow
