IMPROVED MAIL FACILITIES.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
A much desired improvement in our
mail service has been effective during the
past week. A pouch is brought out from
Mankato by the morning train, giving us
the letters and the previous evening pa
peers, pouch is also taken to Mankato
by the 8 a. m. train. This is great con-
venience to our business men as letters
to the twin cities will be transferred at
Mankato by the night clerk at the post
office and sent forward by the 4:45 train
reaching the cities by early business
hours. For this improvement in the
mail service this community is indebted
to the efforts of Mr.. Swearington OF this
place and L. P. Hunt OF Mankato.-

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.
The Day Passed in Mankato Without
Particular Incident.
From Mondays Daily.

The Fourth was celebrated in a very
quiet way in NIankato this year. The
day opened so unpropitious that it is
fortunate that no celebration had been
/ arranged for. Rain fell a good part of
/, the previous night and the clouds con-
tinued to drip moisture until well into
the forenoon. Then, happily for the
small boys, the weather cleared up nicely,
and the remainder of the day was cool
and bracing.
| Sibley park was well patronized during
the afternoon, and the celebration ar
ranged by the st. Elizabeth Aid society
drew a crowd. Many of the stores were
closed, and little business was going on.
In the evening, there was a fine dis
| play of fireworks in front of the Manka-
| to Theatre, while in all parts of the city
there were smaller private displays.
Not single arrest was made by the
police, and an unusually small number of
accidents was reported.
A good many people went to the lakes
or the cities, while many went to Eagle
Lake and Mapleton, where celebrations
We're held. The Milwaukee road sent out
three coaches yesterday morning filed
to the doors
A small boy with a skyrocket
broke one of the windows of Mrs. Eek
harris store.
Harold Nicholson, young son of o.
Nicholson, met with an accident the eve
ming before the Fourth. A toy pistol
exploded in his face, injuring one of his
eyes, but not seriously. He is news
paper carrier.

THE CiTY's STORY
William &. Curtis DeVotes Letter
in Record.Herald to Rock
Island.
HISTORIC ASSOCIATIONS NOTED {
Famous Men, Industries, Institu-
tions and Attractions Told
About.

William +. Curtis, in his letter to
the RecOrtb-Herald today, treats of the
city of Rock Island. Much of the data
contained is well known to every
reading citizen of Rock Island and
was fully covered in the 5Oth anniver-
sary edition of The Argus. The open
ing OF the letter is devoted to the
early history of the city, the follow
ing sketch being given:
This enterprising city stands upon
historic ground. The famous Indian
chief, Black Hawk, was its first set
tier; Louis Joliet and Jacques Mar
'quette stopped here in the summer of
1913; the United States flag was first
raised here in 1901, and it was the
first raised in all this section-by
Lieut.. ZebuloR Pike. the man who dis
covered Pixies Peak and made the
first military reconnaissance up in
this country. Black Hawk was chief
of the Sauks or Sacs, who had their
headquarters on the Illinois side of
the Mississippi near the mouth of the
Rock river, two miles below the pres
ent city of Rock Islansh He had a
lookout there from which he could
survey up and down the river for a
long distance. They still call it
Black Hawks watch tower You
will remember he was the most cele-
brated warrior. of his time, fought
with Tecumseh for the British in the
war of 1912 and was one of the bray
est, most eloquent and sagaciOus of
the savage soldiers and statesmen.
On this side of the river he command
ed an area ZOE miles long, from the
mouth of the Wisconsin to the mouth
of the Missouri and when Keolluk,
the head chief of his tribe. sold this
territory to the whites in 1915, Black
Hawk refused to indorse the transac-
tiUn and caused great trouble and
bloudshed in Illinois.
In 1916 Fort Armstrong was es-
tablished upon the southern end of
the beautiful island now occupied by
the arsenal. to keep him in order. and
ii was the center of one Of the most
stirring chapters in western history.
in which President Zachary Taylor,
jefferson Davis. Gen. Scott. Abraham
Lincoln anG other famous men of
the nation participated. BY what is
known as the Black Hawk war in 1881
the great chief was suppressed. He
was made prisoner and sent to Wash
ington. and afterVard 10 Fortress
Monroe. When Gen. Jackson ordered
his release he rejoined .Keokuk and
the rest of his nation and finally died
on the Des Moines river near the cap
;tal of that state in 1885. The first
civilized settlements was established
at Rock Island in 1924, and il was call
FarnhamsbIrg. after Russell Farm

port, in Indian trading"
