DROWNED.

frankie Bean, a little boy eight years
old, son of George Bean, was drowned
in the river on Friday afternoon at the
rear of the postoffice. He and d younger
brother had built a toy boat and they
proceeded to sail her, The brother re-
manned short time in the barber shop,
frankie proceeding at once to the river.
When the brother went out he saw
Frankie's hat floating and at once gave
notice. When George Wickert went
out of the barber shop after learning
what had happened two boats We're on
the way to the scene of the accident the
occupants having seen the boy fall in,
but it was fully half an hour before the
body was recovered. Efforts at resusci-
tation We're unavailing and the body
was taken home to the afflicted parents.

THE PLANK ROAD.

The committee appointed to make in
designations regarding the plank road
held meeting on Friday last and organ
lied by electing Louis Grimm secretary.
They viewed the road and had consul
tation with Mr.. Crapakowski, the owner.
He asked $1,000 for the road but the
committee stated that no negotiations
We're possible with such a demand. He
then agreed TO accept $1,000, but this
the committee also deemed exorbitant.
The committee offered 5000, but this
offer would receive no consideration and
so the mattel rests The committee will
next give consideration to some other
proposed routes.

Manitowoc suffered defeat at the hands
of Racine in both games in this city this
week The game on the third had but
a light attendance but the home club
showed up better than in the game of
the day following. "Unmerciful disas-
ter follows fast and follows faster" in
the case of Manitowoc. The trouble is
there seems to be no team work. There
is great deal of good individual play
ing, but there is a lack of unified action
and as a consequence errors are numer-

was more snap in the play and exer

THE FOURTH.

There could not be a gloomler day for
the national anniversary than was Tues
day. 1t was foggy, misty and cold. The
lugubrious but insistent notes of the fog
horn We're both depressing and irritating.
Some little attempts at decorating the
streets were made and the stars and
stripes were displayed from number Of
buildings Base ball was the only at
traction for which provision was made.
There were a number of picnics in the
county and this took many people from
the city.
There were number of private exhi-
| pitions of fireworks in the evening, and
dealers disposed of their stocks gratis
when sales ceased, so as to clean out the
explosives. In consequence, there was
A display of fire works by every dealer
in the city and the profit went to make
holiday for the crowds. Cannon fire.
crackers We're exploding in every direc-
ton and the air was heavy with mingled
fog and smoke.
A picnic party including % persons
had a very pleasant time at the lower
Cato Falls They went out in buses and
conducted matters on such a large scale
that a team was used to bring out pro-
visions. They ate, drank and made
merry and fortunately escaped the fog
which enveloped this city. There were
other picnics and country balls innum
cradle Several people from the city at
tended these country balls.
The day was not devoid Of accidents
though they were not as numerous as on
other celebrations of the day. People
using giant firecrackers forget they are
as dangerous as bomb when confined
and thrown in a crowd the explosion is
sufficient to tear limbs off those within |
the radius Of the severe conclusion.
Some young people not knowing the |
danger to themselves and bystanders,
placed during the day these large fire
crackers under boxes, placing bricks on
the boxes The boxes and bricks would
be shattered into fragments. Forum
ately no injuries resulted from this dan
gerous amusement.
E. II. Nolan, a resident of the south
side, an engineer Oh the Wisconsin Cen
trail picked up one of these firecrackers
which he thought was dead. 1t explod
ed in his hand and tore off two fingers
and thumb. The operation of dress
Jug the hand was so painful that he had
to be put under the influence of chloro-

Aurelius Hendrickson boy - years

while he was ramming home the charge.

der, but not seriously.

who returned from Ma lila few days
ago. A native official. it is said, who
had brought certain material in small
boats to the flagship. under contract,
came on board in gaudy raiment and
demanded payment of bill in which
were many extra and unwarranted
charges. The admiral politely but
firmly DECLINED to pay them. The
freighter then resorted 10 insult, mis-
led and embroidered by the great COM

They Are Not to BIame--Read This State
ment From "A Rock Island Lady.
Every motherin Rock Island should
read this statement. Many mothers
blame their children for what they
are not always able to prevent. The
poor little ones suffer for their inabil-
ity to do differently. Many children
are born with weak kidneys. They
wet the bed night after night, because
they really can't help it. Mothers
scold, then whip and often shame the
child, but the accidents 90 on nightly.
If cents worth of forethought were
used, it would be seen that after whip

if it still continued this habit, that
the child must certainly have weak
kidneys or an Inflammation in it's
bladder Morrow's Kid-ne-oids cure
this trouble perfectly. They are easy
to take. as they are tablets (yellow)
and not n nasty, nauseous pill.
We want TO give you the experience
of Mrs. Harriet Atkinson, residing at
AS Ninth street. this city, who says:
| My husband died a few years ago of
Bright's disease. l have four chill
dren, three of them with weakness of
the kidneys, which of course they in
herited. They did wet the bed at
night and their clothes in daytime;
the ages of the three affected are the
eldest ones, aged respectively IL, 0
and years.
Il have given Morrow's Kid-ne-oids
to all three of them, and they are en-
tirely cured of this weakness in the
daytime, and it is seldom that any of
them wet the bed at night now. l
am still giving them Kid-ne-oids, and
l know from what Morrow's Kid-ne-
oids have already done that they will
cure them entirely. l procured the
Kid-ne-oids at Bahnsen's drug store. -
To confirm the statement of Mrs.
Atkinson. we want you to ask her
about Morrow's Kid-ne-oids; she is a
grateful mother and will be very glad
to tell You personally how much her
children were benefited by their use.

The surprise all over this country
that President Mckinley should so
soon have forgotten the nation 5
pledge with regard to the purpose of
our war with Spain has not been so
great since the unearthing of the
proof of the inconsistency of the pres
ident's attitude on the policy of forci-
bic territorial annexation. About
a year ago Mr.. Mckinley said
in mis- message to congress: Il speak
not of forcible annexation. for that
cannot be thought of. That by our
code of morality would be criminal
aggression" Yet we may 20 still a
little further back into history and
find the occasion where Mr.. Mckin-
