Hare, a leading druggist, of Belle

why? Most diseases begin in disor-
ders of stomach, liver, kidneys, bow
els, blood and nerves. Electric Bit

liver, kidneys and bowels, purifies the
blood, strengthens the nerves, hence
cures multitudes of maladies. 1t

the murder of a man between Reeds
Landing and Wabasha. It appears
that after Farrell served about ten
years he was pardoned, and il was
largely through the influence of
friends who knew that he possessed
a patent on a threshing machine, the
manufacture of which could not be
proceeded with unless Farrell was re-
leased. Farrell had got n number of
capitalists interested in his scheme
before he had hand in the murder
which sent him to prison, and they
could do nothing with the project so
long as Farrell was deprived of his
liberty. 1t is said that Farrell might
have become wealthy man through
his patent had he attended to bust
ness, but dissipation and reckless
living put him on the level that he
was few years before he conceived
the patent and forced him to depend
upon livelihood by going back to
his old job of fireman on n raft boat.
The indications now are that he will
go over the road again for a term of
wears.

y gang of surveyors in charge of F.
B. Nash, assistant engineer of the
burlington road, are surveying at
present in Lee county. The newspa-
pers are specializing as to the mean
ing but can get no information as the
men refuse to talk. They started at
Shabbona, DeKalb county, and at last
accounts were at Amboy in Lee coun-
ty. 1t is thought by some that the
plan is to shorten the company's line
between Chicago and Rock Island.
At present traffic between the two
cities must be by way of Galesburg
or else by way of Sterling and Au-
rora. One story has it that the pro-
posed route VIII follow the old In
dian boundary line when it strikes
Henry county, which would make it
pass Geneseo about four miles to the
north.
Here is some more on the same
subject and although the outlet to
Omaha from here is not yet an ac-
complished fact, it may be a piece of
construction which is being contem-
plated for this new year. Here is
what the LaMoille Gazette says.
speaking of the survey:
The burlington survey from Men
dota to Moline is now nearing com
pletion. The line passes north of La
Noble about one mile, through Capt.
Smiths farm. and crosses the branch
near the Bureau creek bridge, about
1% miles northwest of town and
passing south of Ohio two miles and
on west along the old Indian bound
airy line. If built. it will be the main
western road of the Burlington with
double track to Omaha. which short
ems the line II miles between Chicago
and the Nebraska city. 1t is sur
missed that the larger portion of the
western freight now going via Burl-
ington will go the tri-city route"

INSPECTORS CLOSE THE SEASON
Eleven Less Steamers Passed Upon Than
Last Year.

Last Year.
Capt. j. B. Knapp and Capt. James
Sherman, the steamboat inspectors
for this district, have wound up their
work for this season. These in
spectors have charge of what is
known as the Dubuque district, which
extends from Keokuk to Red Wing.
The first boat they inspected was the
ferry Wabasha, which runs between
Wabasha, Mimi, and the Wisconsin
shore. This boat was inspected on
Jan. >, and the last boat inspected
was the Megiddo, the mission boat
built at Clinton, which they inspect
ed last Friday. During the entire
season they inspected rs boats and
nve harges. All barges used for car
rying passengers of 100 tons burden
or over must be inspected.
The number of boats inspected dur
ing the year 1900 was 1919, which was
IL more than this year but this does
not mean that there were that num-
Der more steamboats, in the service
last year than this season. 1t might
have happened that several boats
which travel up and down the river
all season were inspected above Red
Wing, which is out of the Dubuque
district. This would account for the
shortage this season over last year.

Iowa City. The whole length of the
route will be about So miles. 1t
would seem to a casual observer that
TO go to Buffalo and Blue Grass in
order TO reach Iowa City is a round
about way. This is explained on the
ground that the line can be con-
structed at much less expense as
planned than if il were TO proceed
directly to Iowa City from Daven-
port. The grade is said to be good
to Buffalo and also between that
town and Blue Grass. whence il will
be easy running to the other end of
the line.

Railway News

The recent withdrawal of the Mil
waukee road from the arrangement
that existed between the Chicago q
St. Paul road means n great deal to
the people who live at the main
points on the lines of road that run
between Chicago and st. Paul. The
service which formerly consisted of
a 13-hour schedule will be reduced
to ten hours or an average of ~
miles nhour, including stops. The
mail trains are at present running
on the ten hour schedule. The Mil
waultee has contracted for nine high
speed passenger engines of the Allan
tic type with 7-foOt drive wheels,
double-truck, trailing wheel under
fire box. The water tanks will have
a capacity of 1000 gallons. These
engines are built for strength and
speed, and can make 10 miles an hour,
regularly, day in and day out, the
year round.

OUTLOOK is BRIGHT
Board Expected to Indorse Pro-
posed Boys Department of
Y. M. c. A.
SMALL FUND Is BEING RAIsEI
Secretary Freeman Encouraged by
Financial Support
Accorded.

Secretary j. S. Freeman is meeting
with much encouragement in his can
vass for funds with which to under
take the installation of a separate
boys department at the local Y. NJ
! {. y. He estimates the cost of fit
ting up three rooms by themselves as
reading and game rooms and of
maintaining the department with the
extra help required will be about
$500 for the first six months. OF this
sum he has already n good portion
subscribed and is working hard to
raise the balance before the matter
is brought up by the board of direct
ors at their meeting next week.
One popularity of \. NJ. c. y. es-
Establishments in general is that the
larger they become and the greater
proportion of the population of the
locality they have as members the
more difficult ii becomes to engineer
their financial affairs. AS a rule
they are only about half supporting
and the remainder of the cost of
maintenance has to be raised by sub
scription. With the increase in mem
bership the more various does the
work become and the greater the
wear and tear upon the associations
property, while the income from the
added membership does not begin to
meet the extra expense.
Eject of Recent Additions.
So it has been and is with the Rock
Island association and the 12O new
members who have embraced the adj
vantagcs of the institution during Il
little over the two months past have
brought with them obligations out
of proportion to the 5000 derived
from their admission fees. Funds
for the proposed boys department
must be raised among those who
have already given substantial sup
port to the association proper and
thus it is particularly gratifying to
note the manner in which the UNI
expected demand is being met.
Experience shows that there is a
period in the lives of boys when it is
most difficult TO hold them in the as
ISOLATION and that is between the
ages of Is and Is years. At that
time they are too large to associate
with the junior members proper and
too small to go into the adult class
the influence is lost to them at the
most critical time. 1t is generally
found advisable to subdiyide even the
intermediate class into those whose
ages run from 10 TO - years and
again from Il to 10 years.
Rooms to be Set Apart.
Secretary Freeman is planning, in
case the directors look with favor
upon his proposition, to set apart the
present boys room west of the
main office and the chapel with the
little office between them for the
use of the one who is in charge of
the boys work. The boys rooms
will be open from $3.50 to $3.50 five
days in the week and all day on Sat
urday, and during those periods it
will be necessary for them to be
kept under constant supervision.
Socials for the younger members will
be made a feature and extra classes
in both bible and gymnasium work
will be opened for them.

JACK BONNER GONE
Well Known River Man Found
Dead the Other Night
in ST. Louis.
BE WAS MURDERED
John Farrell, a Notorious Tough
Held as a Suspect in
the Case.

There is not n riverman in this vi
cinity who did not know Jack Bon
ner. who for many years was deck
hand on the steamer Sidney and was
in mis- way one of the most genial
characters along the river.
He had been river-rat for a score
of years nearly and had spent most
of his life on the river. Old Jack is
dead. The report comes that he was
found dead in one of the river joints
in st. Louis n few days ago and the
belief among authorities who have
investigated the matter is that he
was the victim of murder. The even
ing before the tragedy he and a few
men of the element that he associ-
ated with mostly, gathered in the
place which he never left alive, and
while there some trouble arose over
a few women of furnished reputation
who had entered, and when il was
over Jack was dead. The three or
four men who were engaged in the
brawl at the time and who left the
place. it is supposed, Immediately af-
ter the murder was committed. have
been arrested. but the principal one
who is believed to have figured most
in the murderous affair is John Far
rel, who has been a fireman on raft
boats on the upper river for quite n
period.

The survey of the proposed cleo

City by way of Buffalo and Blue
Grass and a number of small places
between the last named village and
the university town has begun. The
survey, which is stated to be pre-
liminary one, was commenced on
Rockingham road, where the highway
crosses the tracks of the Burlington
road. The route of the line will, ac-
cording to present plans, run along
Rockingham road to, point opposite
Paramount cemetery, a little west OF
the site of the crematorium, thence
southwest to Buffalo by course be-
tween the Bluff road and the tracks
of the southwestern division of the

of Francis j. Schaefer, John Jacobs,
II. Eckmann and j. Roth and others,
passing close to the tract held by the
Davenport Improvement company.
From Buffalo the road will proceed
direct to Blue Grass, following a ra7
