Should Receive encouragement.

Phil Mitchell believed that every
encouragement should be given the
college. He felt sure that if the citi-
zens generally would give the matter
thought they would realize its inn
portance to the city, and though $50 =
600 was considerable to raise he did not
doubt but what the desired end could
be brought about with the proper eff
fort. Prof. Peterson also spoke
briefly on the matter, suggesting that
the individual members of the club
give it their endol sement and encour-
agement. j. I. Stafford moved the
appointment of a committee of three
to cooperate with the college COM
mittee in soliciting funds as desired
by the university association. Pres
ident Bahusen appointed as such COM
mittee, S. S. Davis. J. T. Stafford
and II. III. Cleaveland. The meeting
then adjourned subject TO the call of
the telephone com mittee.
George a. Cook, of Aledo, who hap
pened to be present at the meeting,
and who is here in the interests of
the location sof the Western Normal
school at Aledo. was invited to adj
dress the Club on the manner in which
the money inducements had been
raised at Aledo. He told of how the
work had been accomplished and gave
what he believed to be the benefits to
accrue from the location of educa-
tional Institutions.

Benefit to the Community.

He spoke of the benefits of the in
stitution to this community with its
annual expenditure of alb tut $3.50. 900,
its educational and moral influence,
and hoped that the club would see its
way clear to lend it's aid 20 the pro-
iect. He was followed by Rev. j
Jespersor, who gave in some detail
the scope of the institutions work.
whose students came from all over
the United States, speaking also of
the Book Concern in connection with
the college with the widespread circu-
lation of its papers and periodicals,
which are constantly advertising the
city from one end of the country to
the other. He referred briefly, also,
to the efforts which had been made at
different meetings of the synod to
have part of the institution moved to
other cities where handsome induce
ments, in sites and money, had been
offered for its location. If the citi-
Zens would come forward assisting
the association in what would be a
comparatively small amount, consid-
ering its material benefits to the city,
the speaker felt sure it would tend
toward keeping the college here in its
entirety for all time.

| Club is Told the Belief is the Matter
VIII Take Definite Form Within the
Next Few weeks-Telephone Troubles
Nearing Final Adjustment Helping
Hand to Augustana Association.
Last evening at the Rock Island
| Club occurred the regular monthly
| mem bership meeting of that organi-
zation. Reports from several commit
tees were heard. The new theatre
comp mittee reported the project of a
new opera house in the hands of some
local gentlemen who are interested in
building a larger theatre than outside
promoters would erect, tie committee
believing that the matter would take
definite form within the next few
weeks.
The committee on adjustment of the
telephone contention was heard from
in the person of ex-Mayor Medill, who
stated that The president and other
officers of the Central Union Telephone
company were expected to be in Rock
Island Thursday morning, at which
time it is hoped the matter will be
finally adjusted.
President Bahnsen then made a
brief statement of the results of the
good roads convention, which, as re-
ported to him by the Good Roads
association officers, was very satisfac-
tory. The organization had been per-
fected and its plans carried out as had
been intended by representation from
each of the four counties.
Assistance for University Association.
A committee composed OF Rev. j.
Jesperson, Prof. G. W. Foss and Prof.
Il. l.. Peterson, representing the Au
gustana University association, was
before the club to enlist the organiZa-
TONS interest in behalf of the Angus
tana college campus project. The
matter IS III the SAM shape as was out
lined in TIE ARGUS some months ago.
1t will be remem bered that the Hull
property on Moline avenue was pur-
chased for $50, 900 several years ago,
he idea being to make up the amount
through the subscription of the
students and their friends, and thus
provide the institution with these
beautiful grounds to be used as
college campus. The hard times
came on shortly afterward and for
several years there was barely enough
collected to pay the interest. Later,
however, Senator Ericsson. of Boone.
Iowa, was interested in the matter,
with the result that he gave vouchers
for S12 500 on condition that like
amount would be raised by the Uni
versity association to cover the bal
ance, so that the institution might
enjoy that for which the association
had striven so hard. The amount
still needed is between eight and nine
thousand dollars. Business men of
Moline have guaranteed $50 of this
amount with the understanding that
the remaining So be raised among
the citizens of Rock Island. Prof.
Foss spoke first, outlining the work
that had been done, as above men
toned.

TO TRAIN JACK LAWLER.
Joe Flaherty Will Handle
the Favorite Local.
Boxer.

Joe Flaherty, brother of Martin
FIaherty, the famous boxer, came to
Worcester last evening to train Jack
Lawler for his fight with Patsy Swee-
ney, which takes place before the Nut
meg Athletic Club of Hartford, April
19-Flaherty was for years regarded
as one of the most clever lightweights
Withstand the driving power of his arms
and went back on him in almost every
battle he fought. OF late years he has
not fought many battles but has spent
his time training his brother Martin,
who is well known 10 Worcester sports.
Flaherty is considered a clever train
er and able to fit a man to make the
battle of his life. He was trainer for
Tim Carroll when the latter was pre-
pairing for his contest with Jack Law
Ter last year at New London. As
Flaherty was in Carroll's corner the
night Of the fight, he knows LAWYER
we'll He said last evening everything in
the fight is in LAWYERS favor.
Sweeney is not a heady fighter,
Flaherty says, and does not use any
generalship. He keeps coming at a man
and that style will be just what will
suit LAWYER. Sweeney fights high and
keeps his arms high, which will enable
Lawler to work his body hooks, the
blows which won the fight against
Carroll. He will begin training Lawler
today. The Lawler men made an effort
to secure Tom Broderickof Yonkers,
but the latter had too many engage
ments Martin Flaherty invariably
helps out his brother if he has no en-
gagement on hand and will probably be
in LAWYERS corner the night of the
battle.
With the Flahertys in his corner, his
chances are certainly better than ever.
His friends have gained renewed conf
dence and he will carry all the money
they can raise. They have the greatest
confidence in Lawler and his ability to
stand and give punishment regardless
of what he has done in comparison to
his opponents work is strong enough
for them.
