that the Risdon Iron Works made a

PASTOR SAYS FAREWELL,
Rev. T. w Grafton Delivers Closing Ser

Rev. I. w. Grafton, of the Christian
well sermon last evening. The con-
gregation of the Baptist church and
pastor, Rev. G. b. Simons, were pres
ent. Taking his text from Cor. 1,
chapter Is. verse IS, Now abideth
faith. hope and love, but the greatest
of these is love-" Rev. Grafton
dwelt on the Supremacy of Love. "
He said: Coils love is manifest ev-
erywhere. There is no forethought
for happiness without the expression
of love. The divine in man is love.
God is love. Love is an expression of
power. 1t has greater power than all
things combined. 1t has built king
doms and it has defended them
after they were established.
1t was love that sent our forefathers
through storms across the ocean; it
was love that defended our country;
it was love that sent our armies
to battle; it is love that has
built US together; God is love. 1t has
made possible all great achievements;
it has removed the barriers of ignor-
ance. Love is enduring; it is indis-
soluble. 1t cannot be removed by
the tears of trial or the fires of tribu-
lation or the heat of passion. The
cross of Calvary is the Specification
of love, it height reaching to the
heaven, its depth to hell and its
length and breadth TO the uttermost
corners of the universe. Jesus is the
manifestation of love"

vocation, in which he feelingly re
ferred to the good work done by Mr..
Grafton and to the success which has
attended his efforts, aud he expressed
hope that the work of the coming
pastor would be crowned with greater
success, because of the foundation
work aid by his predecessor.
Tonight reception is to be tend

tion to Rev. and Mrs. Grafton.

a match was touched to the bunch of
barrels on the river front The con-
migration was TO have been the climax
10 the blowout. and just why it was
started before the order was given by
the general manager is not just clear,
and il is more than likely some one
will be called upon the Brussels to ex-
plain the break. Naturally, when the
flames shot up from the levee, the
audience that had gathered about the
speakers stand broke up. only a few
remaining to hear the words of Mr..
Sweeney, who lauded the repu blican
party in the highest terms. He told
of its promises four years ago aud
how it had kept them. The war with
Spain had been full of glorious
achievements for the country. its req
pie, President Mckinley and Theodore
Roosevelt. referring to the conspicu-
Gus part the latter took in the Cuban
campaign. President Mckinley was
the greatest of Statesmen. He was q

The audience was growing smaller
every moment, and when ii. A. Weld
was given a knockdown by the chair
man he seemed somewhat crushed.
But he did molly under the circum
stances. At the outset he evidently
attempted to make himself heard down.
on the river front where the bonfire
was in progress, but the folks down
there were more interested in what
the wild waves were saying. Mr..
Weld said under the gallant leader
ship of Mckinley and Roosevelt there
was no such word as fail.
The glee club struggled through an-
other selection. And that was all.
Hon. William jackson, j. X. Scott and
c. j. Sc irle were to have given adj
dresses and would probably have been
heard but for the premature beginning
of the fire on the river bank.

TROUBLE SOON OVER.
Manager Roberts Says New Tele.
phone Exchange Will Be in
Operation July 20.
BEST OF SERVICE Is PROMISED
Present Quarters inadequate fol
Handling of Company's
Business.

| Numerous complaints having been
heard about poor telephone service,
The ARGUS interviewed Manager Ro-
berts, of the local exchange, on
the subject. He said: In or
der 10 successfully move the ex-
change from the old to the new quar-
tiers, 1t is necessary to bring all the
lines into the new office and from there
into the old office, so that when the
time comes. the old office can be cut
out and the new cut in with but few
moments loss of service. In cutting
off from the old lines on to the new
lines considerable trouble has ensued
and especially in the district fed by
the cable running up Twentieth street
and Seventh avenue, where bad spot
in the cable caused some extraordinary
trouble and delay. These troubles
have about been fixed up now.
MANY people complain of inatten-
ton on the part of the operators.
They are slow in answering, appar-
emily Indifferent, and refuse to
listen to complaints. The opinion
that the operators are slow and indif-
ferent would be speedily dispelled if
IuC WOOAN AheO
the central office and watch them for
a few minutes. The fact is, the
Rock Island telephone exchange is
one of the busiest 1 have ever seen,
far buster than many larger ones. and
our present equipment is slow and
inadequate to handle the volume of
business that is be4ped upon it dur
ing the few hours of the business day.
The reason the operators are slow is
because. may be, four or five drops
fall at once. Only one can be
answered at time, SO some one has
to wait. As to refusals to listen
to complaints, these should go to
the chief operator or to the manager.
The operator has no time. While
she is listening to some ones tale
of woe, some eight or ten other sub
scribers might be clamoring for
service.
The new switch board is designed
to accommodate more operators and
with much less work for each. 1t is
calculated that every call should be
answered within five seconds from the
time the telephone is taken off the
hook and the work of making the con-
nections and disconnections is much
less than with the present system"
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1900-06-25
Busy Lines.

How about the operators reporting
lines busy when they are not?"
Il cannot believe this occurs inten-
tionallv. 1t is much easier for an
operator TO make a connection for a
calling subscriber than it is for her to
be continually replying that line is
busy and l have never been able to
trace up an absolutely proven case of
that kind. AS previously stated, the
business done over the telephone in
the tri-cities is fast and furious and
taxes the operators 10 their utmost
during the busy hours. 1t is posi-
BILE. indeed probable, that some mis-
takes occur, but there is no intention
on the part of the operator to mislead
any body or prevent anybody getting
connection.
There is one crying evil in the tel
ephone business that is responsible
for large amount of the extra work,
and that is the use of the lines by
non-su bscribers. 1t is estimated that
fully 20 per cent of the service is
done for people who pay nothing and
have no right to it. to the detriment
and harm of people who do pay.
This evil is one that can only be
remedied by the cooperation of the
subscribers themselves with the COM
pany. The operators have ne time to
discriminate between those who have
and those who have not a right to
call for service. They can merely an
swer calls and make connections.
Every time a non-sub criber uses
telephone he works an in justice
upon the company and upon two SUBJ
scribe as well. While he is using
these two lines, the calling and called,
for which he pays not a cent, he is
possibly cutting of business from
some one who pays for his service, and
is compelling the operator to report
a busy line that should not be busy.
If the people who pay for the service
would refuse the use of their instru-
ments to those who do not pay, they
would find their own service would be
much better and prompter and busy
lines much less frequent.
