AUGUST LITTIG REvIsITS
OLD HOME AFTER SO YEARS

EN-Ald. Littig, who came to Daven-
port from Paris, France, in 1897,
Wednesday of this week, in company
with eX-Street Commissioner +. w.
Baker, drove over to George Lul<en's
home. situated on the north bank of
Rock river. one mile east of Black
Hawk Watch Tower. and there took
a bountiful dinner with Mr.. Lukens
and family. SiXty-one years ago Mr..
Littig took several meals in the same
house with Mr.. Carr, then owner of n
2OO-acre farm. Mrs. Lukens was
daughter of Mr.. Carr. y few years
later. while Mrs. Lukens was still
quite young girl, Mr.. Littig and his
brother John purchased large quanti-
ties of hay on that farm.
The nearest neighbor to the Luken
homestead at the present time is Mr..
Lowell and family, tender of lock 35
of the Hennepin canal. The dam
which the government built across
the river extends from the Lowell resi-
dence to the Lukens home, Il distance
of 1850 feet. This dam is at the
head of Carr's island, of which Mrs.
Lukens' father was the owner for
many years. and from whom it re-
ceives its name.
Near this lock. on Mill Creek, Mr..
Carr also owned a small saw and
feed mill. Mr.. Littig says he often
went through that mill, the first few
years that he resided in this vicinity.
Mr.. Littig and Mr.. Baker say that
they were more than royalty enter
tanned while spending the day with
the Lukens family and two young
lady friends of the family visiting
there, entertained the guests with
several selections on the piano. and
Mr.. Littig sang French song. He is
So years of age this month. and at
this age is young in spirit and enjoys
life with young people as well as old.
Mr.. Littig has many relatives residing
in this and Rock Island county. Mrs.
August Steffen is Il granddaughter.
also the wife of Mr.. Karwarth, the
Moline druggist.-Davenpor Leader.

A SHOWER OF METEoRs
LOOKED FOR THIS WEEK

The wonders of that famous night
when ode stars FELL as old negroes
still relate down south, may possibly
be repeated during the latter part of
this week. For Nov. Is to Nov 10
was the time the great shower of
Leonid meteors was expected 10 take
place two years ago. The shower was
not then seen. But the astronomers
explained that the celestial train had
merely lost time and would certainly
arrive last year.
Again the shooting stars shot not,
and again the unlearned public was
told to hold it's breath just IL
months longer. But it is by no means
certain that the men of science have
solid ground for their predictions. 1t
is hardly possible that great display
may occur this year between mid
night and daylight from Nov. 13 to 10,
but the great displays are a thing of
the past, and it is probable that only
scattering members of the shower
will appear. Whether il is worth
while to watch for them or not must
be determined by each individual.
The Leonids, concerning which so
much has been said and written about
this time during the past four or five
years. and which were expected to
appear in great numbers last Novem-
Der and the preceding one, but APP
peared only in very moderate num-
bers, is the most remarkable of the
true meteoric showers. the orbits of
which cross that of the earth this
month. On Nov. -, 1888. between
nuH Y,nrninn rnatanrS nr
shooting stars, appeared in enormous
numbers in this country. which made
a brilliant display in the heavens and
caused many people to believe that
the end of the world had arrived.

The Chinese Minister Will
Not Sit at Table
WITH GEN. OTIS
Says Otis Did Injustice TO the
Chinese

New York, Feb. s.-Major-Gen.
Otis was the guest OF honor at the an
nual dinner of the Society OF the Gen
esee at the Waldorf last night. There
were about 200 gentlemen present at
the dinner.
Letters of regret we're read from
President Mckinley, Admiral Dewey,
Andrew Carnegie, Gen. Miles and
Secretary Root.
WI Tung Fang the Chinese minis
ter also sent letter Of declination. 1t
was as follows:
"While l appreciate your courtesy
highly, l feel that am obliged to de.
cline for the following reasons.
admit that l feel great admira-
tion for Gen. Otis as military COM
mander ana respect him highly as a
gentleman, but I think he, while
military governor committed eyre
gious error and did great injnstice to
thesCh1nese by Introducing the Chi
nese exclusion acts into the Philip
pines which has stirred up race pre-
iudices and done harm to those Is
lands.
"Whle l believe that Gen. Otis
acted upon the i'll advice Of some one,
still, il were to attend the dinner
given in his honor, I could not decline
the invitation to say something con-
cerning the general, and what have
to say might not be pleasant to the
general or his fellow banqueters to
hear, though as 1 said above l hold
him personally In very high esteem. -

in the Reed block. He has been i'll
with diphtheria but had recovered
and the quarantine had been removed
from the house. The diphtheria ef-

Adams hotel will close it's doors to
the public Saturday night. Mr..
Adams is doing this at this time be-
cause there is not business enough to
warrant him in keeping it open longer.
Some time in November he closed the
dining room and now tine whole house
is to be closed. He will however, CON
tinue to make his home there for the
present. The property has been plac-
ed in the hands of the real estate
agent but as yet there has Lot been a
purchaser although number Of in
quirieS have been received and several
people have called upon Mr.. Adams to
talk over the matter Of leasing the
place. The hotel will probably be open
