the day eagerly and enthusiastically.
A Busy Day.
There was not an hour from sun
meetings at night but that was
marked for meetings and services.
Music hall auditoriums were the CEN
ter of most activity. The action of
the local committee in dispensing
with Auditorium Ohio and consolidat-
ing the meetings scheduled to occur
there with the two meetings in Au-
ditoriums Enoeavor and Williston,
caused by a revising of the entire pro-
gramme, as far as speakers were cor
cerned. The assignments to these
halls were made before the conven-
ton, and as the speakers who were to
have participated in Auditorium Ohio
are here, they were included on the
programme in the other two ouditori-
ums.

the Second Presbyterian and Ninth
Street Baptist churches, ushered in

Rural Telephone Connection the
Subject of Lengthy
Discussion.
EXCURSION COMMITTEES REPORT
Moline Association is Cooperating
in Demands on Rock
Island Road.

The excursion committee made pre-
liminary report on its trip to Aurora
aud Chicago with view ofdetermining
upon place to which the next excur-
sion may be held at last nights meet
ing of the Retail Merchants associa-
ton. Aurora was under favora bic
consideration. but the committee had
not formu ated complete report and
asked for further time. Upon mo-
ton the power to fix the place and
date was left in the hands of the COM
mittee. The feasibility of taking the
Rock Island professional ball team
dong for a game with the Aurora
team was discussed. but no decision
vas reached. A vote Of thanks was
extended to the officials Of the c., b.
& q railway for the courteous treat
nent they had extended to the COM
nittee on it's jiunt.
Country Telephones Up again.
Country telephone connection was
made q subject of discussion. The
committee appointed on this head was
unable to make report on account
of the absence of the chairman, l..
Simon, but the fact was brought out
that it is waiting before taking steps
to secure substantial concessions
upon the rural line owners who have
not as yet manifested any inclination
to form central organization to do
business. The gentlemen from out
of town who waited upon the meI-
chants at a meeting late in the winter
were not properly representatives of
any organization and they had no
definite plan to suggest. 1t was de-
cided to renew the agitation and NJ.
n. Sexton and John Dolly were added
to the original committee, bringing it
up to five members.
Moline Seconds Move.
A letter was read from Secretary
+. w. Rank, of the retail merchants
of Moline, stating that that body had
taken up the move originated by the
local association to get convenient
daily passenger service to the tri-
cities over the c. r l. & p. from Blu.
reau west, and forwarded its reso-
lutions TO the officers of the road.
Committees appointed to mediate in
the carpenters strike and to secure
Improvement of the Ninth street road
reported substantial results. which
have been previously noticed through
the columns of The ARGUS.

The Illinois crop bulletin for the
week ending May q says the weather
has been cool most of the week,
though during part of the week it was
very warm. Light rain fell generally
throughout the state and in macy
localities, especially in the northern
district, the rain was sufficient for the
needs of vegetation and revived it
greatly. As a rule. however, crops
in these localities have not fully re-
covered from the effect of the previous
dry weather. The heavier rains OF
the week were of a local character,
and in many localities only the lighter
but more general rain fell. In these
localities. which are mainly in the
central and southern districts, crops
are beginning to suffer considerably
from the drouth.
