NEGRO TEAM APPLIES
Enterprising chicagoan Seeking
Franchise in Three-I Ball
League.
SEXTON HAS A LETTER FROM HIM
President Munger Says If Expansion
is Wanted, Make il
IL Clubs.

Below is given the letter which
has been occasioning so much dis
cussion in the newspapers around the
Three-l league circuit, the writer's, in
some instances, having taken the APP
Plication so seriously as to really
believe there was fair prospect of
having Chicago as a running mate.
The letter, which President Sexton
has not answered, explains itself:
Chicago, Sept. 7.-President Sexton.
Three-I League Baseball Clubs. Rock
Island, Ill. Dear Sir: 1 would like
to make a suggestion, and hope that
you viii place the same on file to be
acted upon at the next meeting of the
Three-l league. as follows:
l would like to place a colored
team on the South Side. in the city
of Chicago, as member of the Three-I
league. Can furnish well equipped
ball park, with plenty of backing.
and strong aggregation of gentlemen
colored ball players. Would draw
from 5000 TO 10000 on Sundays, prob
ably more, according TO the position
in the league race of the opposing
team-an average of 1000 on week
days. The schedule could be arrang-
ed so as not to conflict with the
schedule of the American league.
] have been contemplating a move
toward placing n colored club in
some league a good many years, but |
owing to the national agreement l
knew that the National league would |
never consent; but as the, national !
agreement is practically dead, l see |
a chance to foster the club to a bet |
ter position than playing independent |
ball. / am sure colored club would /

SOME MORE F|zzLES
In Relation to Cleanliness of
Streets as in Other Munic-
ipaI Affairs.
CITIZEN DEPLoREs THE CONDITION
No Such Neglect Shown Since Pres
ent Mayors First Adj
Ihinistration.

Mr.. Jackson's idea of Horticulture
and home adornment is n splendid
one" declared citizen conversing
with an Argus representative in front
of the Harper this morning. But
ne continued, ''if we could only have
some such measure adopted for the
systematic cleaning of streets. The
present mayor seems determined to
repeat the record he made when he
was in before. We have never seen
such neglect of streets since, and
was in hopes we never would again.
Look at Second avenue right here
where we are standing in front of
this hotel where strangers are COM
ing in at all times. What must be
the impression they gain from such
conditions as these?
This is the time of year above all
others when the streets should be
thoroughly cleaned and scraPed up,
before the Accommodations of weeks
become frozen to the pavement to
remain so all winter. The result of
this kind of experience is that in
stead of presenting the appearance
If paved streets, and showing for
what they are, our thoroughfares
look like rough country roads. But
what more can you expect with city
affairs administered as they are.
Systematic street Cleaning,
speed the citizens movement for
the improvement of residence prop
erty. and may it extend TO the boule-
ards, and let MS hope that a way
nay be devised for systematic street
sweeping as well. We have Il beauti-
full city, abreast of the times, but
Just now it is actually suffering from
neglect and incapacity in its govern
ment.''

distressing nightmare.
Finally, after hearing the eXper-
fence of numbers of friends who had
quit the coffee and gone TO drinking
Postum Food Coffee. and learning of
the great benefits they had derived.
concluded coffee must be the cause
of my trouble, so L got some Postum
Food Coffee and had 1t made accord
ing to directions.
was astonished at the flavor and
taste. 1t entirely took the place OF
coffee, and to my very great satisfac-
ton, began TO sleep peacefully and
sweetly. Ny nerves improved, and
wish could warn every man, woman
and child from the unwholesome
drug, ordinary coffee.
People really do not appreciate or
realize what powerful drug it is and
what terrible effect it has on the
human system. If they did, hard:
a pound of il would be sold. wo'
never think of going back TO coifee
again. / would almost as soon think
of putting my hand in fire after
had once been burned.
4 young lady friends of ours had
stomach troubles for n long time,
and could not get we'll as long as she
used coffee She finally quit coffee

digestion nearly all my life. 1t now
seems to me that for years L never
knew what it was to be hungry, to
have good natural appetite.
Il was troubled with gas in stom-
ach causing pressure on the heart
with palpitation and short breath.
Nearly everything l ate soured on
my stomach, sometimes had cramps
in the stomach which almost resem-
bled spasms.
Doctors told me / had catarrh of
the stomach, but their medicines
would not reach it and l would still
be sufferer had l not, in sheer des-
peration decided to try Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
Il knew they were an advertised
remedy and L didn't believe anything
L read about them as / had no con-
fidence in advertised remedies, but
my sister living in Pittsburg wrote
me last spring telling me how Stu
arts Tablets had cured her little
daughters of indigestion and loss of
flesh ana appetite and 1 hesitated no
longer.
Il bought u fifty-cent box at my
drug store and took two of the large
tablets after each meal and found
them delightful to takf, being as
pleasant to the taste as caramel
candy. Whenever during the day or
night l felt any pain or uneasiness
in the stomach or about the heart L
took one of the small tablets and in
three weeks it seemed to me as if
had never known what stomach
trouble was.
81 keep Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
in the house and every member of
our family uses them occasionally
after a hearty meal or when any OF
us have a pain or ache in the digest
i've organs"
Mr.. L. II. Davis, of Hampton, Va,
says: Il doctored five years for
dyspepsia, but in two months l got
more benefit from Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets than in five years of the
doctors treatment"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest as we'll as the simplest and
NEST convenient remedy for any
form of indigestion, catarrh of stom-
ach, biliousness, sour stomach, bloat-
ing after meals, sympathetic heart
trouble.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is not a
cheap cathartic but an active digest
i've remedy containing the PePsin and
diastase which every weak stomach
lacks, and they cure stomach troub-
les because they digest the food eat
en- and give the weak, abused over
worked stomach Il chance to rest
and recuperate.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
in every drug store in the United
States, Canada and Great Britain.

TRI-CITIEs ARE FAVORED IN
A VISIT FROM PROF. BALL

The schools of the three cities are
interested, to the last individual. in
the coming lecture of Sir Robert
Ball, of the Cambridge observatory,
in Davenport few weeks hence under
the auspices of the Tri-City Press
club. Sir Robert Ball is recognized
as the foremost man living in lect-
ures on astronomy. He puts science
in its most delightful aspect, and
makes his talk of the sun, moon and
stars, the planets and the comets and
the nebulae and the wonders and
mysteries of space, so absorbingly
interesting that il is impossible not
to be fairly oblivious of everything
that is going on about one while he
listens to this enhancing speaker.
The best stereOpticon, and the best
results of celestial photography,
which has told so many wonderful
stories in the past few years, will be
on hand to reinforce the talk on
Other Worlds Than Ours, and make
it the foremost educational event of
this season in the tri-cities.
Sir Robert Ball is in the United
States but a few weeks. He delivers
a series of lectures at the Lowell in
stitute. Boston, and limited number
of others in the larger cities as far
west rs Minneapolis, but he stops but
twice in Iowa-Cedar Falls and Dav-
we are entitled to re-
gard ourselves as particularly favor
ed here.

KEEPS WEDDING DAY
Miss Alice Rathbun, Suffering With
Typhoid Fever, is Married
to II. A. Propst.

Rather than see her appointed we'd
ding day pass without the ceremony
which had been planned, Miss Alice
elizabeth Rathbun kept her troth and
though racked by burning fever and
weak from Il long struggle with the
dread typhoid, she bravely spoke the
words which made her the wife of
Herbert Addison Propst. of Daven-
port. She is still very critically i'll.
The ceremony, so unusual in it's
celebration, was performed at the
home of Mrs. j. j. Cox. 2414 Fifth
avenue, Moline, yesterday morning at
. o'clock, though when the invita-
tons were sent out two weeks ago it
was planned to take place at the
home of the brides mother, Mrs. +.
+. Arcularius, in Hampton, at S
o'clock last evening. Two hundred
invitations were issued and plans
we're made for gala occasion, thus
TO nave them blighted. At the time
The invitations were issued the bride
was sick, but nothing serious was an
ticipated and the preparations for
the nuptials went ahead. \ short
time ago the invitations were recall
ed and friends of the family and the
young people We're alarmed at the
turn of the disease.
AS her wedding morn drew nearer,
the bride became no better and as
the realization came upon her that
she would not be able to arise, the
fact weighed her down and the de-
preston held off recovery. Upon the
physicians suggestion the ceremony
was carried out as it had been plan
ned.
Standing at the bedside of his
bride, the young groom held her
burning hand, while Rev. NJ. V. Crum-
baker of the First Methodist church
pronounced short service of mar
riage, only very few relatives being
in the sick room, transformed for the
time into bridal parlor.
The groom has furnished home in
Davenport for his bride, to which
place she is to be taken as soon as
possible, and after Jan. 1 they expect
to be at home at 1875 Denison avenue.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. +. II. Rathbun, who are now in
California.
