Harry B. Jones, assistant cashier OF the
Colorado State bank, with the true art
istic spirit took his camera and going to
the corner OF Tenth and Main streete,
set it to catch the brilliant flashes OF
lightning with which the western heav-
ems we're Illuminated. The action OF
lightning is like that OF hashlight, only a
thousand times b.tter He made at
least eight negatives OF flashes OF light
Mug. Today after they we're developed
he kindly allowed ! Sentinel reporter to
examine the prints taken from the neg

flash OF lightning the whole heavens for
great space surrounding the flash is
Illuminated and this shows perfectly in
the print. Mr. Jones will prepare some

FUNNY SPECTACLES.
The ImprOmptu Rows That Occur In
the Streets of Paris.

did YOU ever see street fight in
France:" asked an artist who had late
ly returned from Paris. 'They are
funny Spectacles. / saw one once while
passing the Bal Butler at midnight.
Two little Frenchmen walked along in
front of me, engaged in conversation.
a third little Frenchman ran up on tip
toe from behind somewhere and kicked
the taller of the takers between the
shoulder blades. He went down with
a cry, turned a somersault into the gut
ter and lay there.
And instantly-how, don't know
that street was full of hundreds of lit
tie Frenchmen. fighting and chattering
and screeching. They didn't use their
fists. They slapped. scratched, pulled
whiskers and hair and, above all,
kicked-kicked in the high French
manner, not landing where we Ameri-
cans land, but getting home on the
face and neck and on the back be-
tween the shoulders. For five minutes
there was pandemonium. and then as
suddenly as it had begun the brawl
was over and the boulevard was still
again.
But afterward in all the boulevard
cafes you found torn and bleeding
Frenchmen. who leaned back Imply in
their chairs while their little ladyloves
wiped daintily with their skirts the
blood stains from the faces of those
heroic scrappers. The little ladies wept
and murmured sweet, cOnSOling things:
the little men seemed in the depth of
despair; but it wasn't long before little
drinks were ordered and little ciga-
rettes lighted and everybody was gay
and happy again." - Philadelphia

THE coMMuTER.
Rovv He spends His Hours of Daily
Railroad Travelling.

The much abused suburbanites,
whom the cartoonists picture as com
Ing to the city every morning from
i.I.onesomeburst, - Lost Mans Lane
st-by-the-Trolley" and other
places with equally suggestive names
are an interesting class of individ
uals. The transient element of the
city's population spends several hours
every day whirling over the railroads.
When the novelty of these daily bits
of railroading has passed into the
monotony of years of travel through
the same country the commuter has
learned to make the best of the time
he spends on the train.
The "card fiend' is Il prominent fig
ure In this class. Both morning and
evening four or five games of cards
are going on in every smoking car. and
it is safe to say that thousands of dol
lars change hands in this innocent
amusement" while the players are hur-
rying to or from business.
Next TO the card sharp" is the man
who only enjoys his cigar and paper.
He is Oblivious to all his surround
iags and only shows animation when
ne is at his journeys end.
Many of the policies and plans of
some of this city's most successful
business men have been born or de-
veloped on these trains. The short
respite between the hustle of the city
and the cares of home life is to this
type of man Il season for meditation.
Another interesting commuter is the
individual who is on good terms with
all his fellows. He travels up and
down through the car exercising his
repertory of latest jokes or sympa-
thizing with some gloomy looking
friend who thinks that all the world
is against him. He seems to never
grow weary in his well doing.
The train life of the commuter is now
and then enlivened by wrecks. Though
tossed about and sometimes cut and
bruised, he generally escapes serious
injury. Such experiences as these he
considers the spice and coloring of his
existence.--New York Mail and Ex-
press.

Illinois mf7rmarY and
School of Natural HEALING

Has secured additional rooms in con-
nection with those which it now oc-
cupies. Having outgro wn its old
apartments, the Illinois Infirmary
and School of Natural Healing has Sc
cured one-half of the entire 4th floor
of the Mitchell 81 Lynde building. Rock
Island. This has become necessary
by the dozens of patients who are now
being treated and must be accommO-
dated at this Grand Institution for
the treatment and cure of the afflicted,
and where so many people of the Tri-
Cities and surrounding country hav4
been made happy once more in the
realization of perfect health and all
the pleasures perfect health brings
with it.
The success of the President, DIR. j.
AlvinHorne has been truly phenomenal,
having been in Rock Island only three
months and has cured dozens of pa
tients whose testimonials have ap-
Peared in this paper from time to
time, and whose practice has become
too large for him to treat all of his
patients scientifically and thoroughly.
For this reason he has now associated
with him the Celebrated Physician
and Natural Healer of Chicago, DIR.
Il. Austin Orr, who comes to Rock ISL
and very highly recommended for abil-
ity, as skillful specialist in all Chronic
Nervous and Special disc as es of Me-
and Women, as well as being a per
