What appears to be the last trace
of smallpox in Moline has disappear
ed. The scourge had not at this time
secured very strong foothold in the
city, though several mild cases APP
peared in the early spring but
through the careful work of the
health department happily it did not
spread to any appreciable extent.
Yesterday morning the last traces
of the disease disappeared when City
Marshal KittiIsen and his force pro-
ceeded to disinfect the three houses
affected, lifting the quarantine and
releasing those who had been under
surveillance for the past month.

MOLINE MENTION

The Moline Chautauqua association
announces that all the preliminary
work for the coming year is now well
under way. The program is almost
complete, and will be as good, if not
better than last years. The Tri-City
Railway company has begun the cree
tion of the tabernacle at Prospect
park, which will cost about $4,000 and
seat 1000 people. This will have a
good roof and be so strongly con-
structed that no one need stay away
on account of rains or storms. Not a
program will be omitted on account of
rain, as unfortunately happened last
year, with the tent. The official pros
pectus is now in press and will soon
appear. The selling of season tickets
is about to begin. Carl Gamble is
superintendent of ticket sales. The
assembly will begin July and close
July 81, and win give 20 splendid pro-
grams.

A petition for paving Thirteenth
avenue from Ninth to Fifteenth street
with asphalt has been completed with
considerable amount of frontage
above the necessary majority. This
petition is now before the board of
local improvements and whether it
will be carried out this year will rest
on the amount of money the city has
available. The Twelfth avenue paving
stretch has prior consideration with
the board because it was first submit
ted and covers Il territory much in
need of Improvements, but additional
work will be taken up during the sum-
mer as far as the funds will permit.
