ACTION ON SEVERAL MATTERS

Assistance in the Entertainment OF State
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of Securing
a Visit From the President-songs by
Spencer Robinson.
Rock Island Club memb ers were
out in force at the meeting at the club
house Saturday night. The business
session, or regular monthly member
ship meeting, was brief. although sew
eral matters of moment We're given
attention. DR.. c. c. Carter stated
that it had been suggested to him
that the club cooperate with thu local
lodges in entertaining the Workmen
delegates who would be here in May
for the state grand lodge of the a. O..
L. w. As a committee entrusted
with such duty DR.. Carter. William
Stewart and r. \. Donaldson were
named.
President Bahnsen said it should be
great source of satisfaction to the
club to know of the passage by the
senate of the appropriation of $3.50
900 for the building of Il small arms
factory at Rock Island arsenal. an en-
terprise that would be of inestimable
benefit TO the surrounding commune
ties. Mr.. Bahnsen said Rock Island
needed more dwellings, too.
+. \. Head suggested that a course
of action looking to the increasing of
the membership be planned. There
were over $50 belonging now, and
there was no reason, in his opinion,
why each one could not secure a new
member. Mr.. Heads timely sugges-
ton opened up brief discussion, in
which President Bahnsen and Phil
Mitchell participated. and which re-
suited, in accordance with an idea
expressed by the former, in the ap-
pointment of Il. ID. Connolly, S. 5.
Davis and ii. p. Simpson as COM
mittee on membership, to report at
the next meeting. when their duties
will cease, and new committee will
be named.
President Bahnsen stated that he
had noticed an article in TIE ARGUS
chronicling the fact that President
Mckinley proposed visiting Peoria,
and possibly Galesburg, during the
coming season, and he believed
Rock Island should endeavor to in
duce him to come here, if for nothing
more than to look over the great gov
eminent manufacturing plant here.

an old poacher and is known to have
killed moose in defiance to the law, but
he has heretofore kept out of the reach
Of the law by remaining in Canada
When the officers arrived, Monday, the
brother-in-law of the poacher fired
three shots at Warden Cummings, none
of which hit him.
The two wardens kept on their work
and arrested the poacher and then
turned their attention toward the at
tempted murderer. They were at last
accountsin Fort Kent after the man.
Warden Cummings said that though
none of the rifle bullets hit him, they
came so very near him that he was
afraid there might be mistake made
and one of them might hit him.
The name of the poacher was not
known to Commissioner Oak at the
time he wrote.

taught ii, and. in it's healing and saving
power see the&evidence of it's origin In
an early translation of the Bible we find
a significant expression, where Luke tells
of the mission of John to make ready the
ways Of the Lord and give knowledge OF
salvation unto His people Salvation to
our ears has a theological sound, and in
popular thought means eventual escape
from hell and its eternal misery The
sense intended is lost when salvation does
not become a present blessing.
'Wycliffe touches the real meaning OF
the passage by writing Science of
Health, where knowledge Of Salvation
is given in our version. If the Gospel Of
Salvation We're recognized to be the
good news Of health people would I'M
derstand that the blessing is now to be
enjoyed, and would not vaguely postpone
happiness and Heaven. 1t is interesting
that the book wherein the good news of
Christ healing is scientifically elucidated
should not only reaSsert the knowledge
of salvation from disease and sorrow and

rope. This is on account of the pIas-
tering which is unsafe at point over
the place so fenced. A large section
fell. last Sunday morning, and there
are one or two other places that do
not look very solid, but this brings the
committee of the Council and superin-

the said expenses would have been paid.
