little ones of the household have the
Group. There is no other medicine so
effective in this terrible malady as
Foley's Honey and Tar. 1t is a house
hold favorite for throat and lung trou-

other poisons, it can be safely given.

Has Held Championship.

In past seasons davenport mas us
uaIly been able to hold the title of
tri-city champions, having teams that
are generally superior in weight and
experience. Only once it is recorded
that Rock Island succeeded in wrest-
ing the honors away from the Iowans.
This year, however, Rock Island has
a better team than usual, as the rec
ord of the season shows. Davenport
has already been tied in a practice
game on wet field, and but one de-
feat has been met with, at Des
Moines, when strange reversal of
form was shown. Rock Island stock
is given an additional boost by the
prospect that Capt. Mosenfelder, the
clever end. will be in the game. He
has been sick and the team has play
ed without him since early in the fall,
but expects to be in the lineup tomor-
row.
In comparative records Davenport
has somewhat the advantage, having
sustained no defeat this fall and hav-
ing beaten Moline by a larger score
than Rock Island did. In the case of
Moline, however, it was largely a mat
ter of luck. If Rock Island had not
lost the ball near the Moline goal ear
~ in the game thrOugh being penaliz-
ed, a touchdown would have been
made in the first few minutes of play
and Moline would have been on the
run throughout the contest.
In the betting Rock Islanders are
taking all the 3. to , money Daven-
porters offer, and the prospects are
that there will be no odds offered
when the game starts.
Rock Island high school alumni and
business men of the city have by sub
scription raised sum sufficient tC
defray the expenses of band, and
one will be taken from this city. The
rube band of the high school boys
will not figure, but the girls mega
phone club will be in evidence. Rock
Island colOrs are crimson and old

tied his yard Of prize winning poultry
one night. Since then he has changed

The current price Of cotton is double
that Of the year 1899. It was raised at
loss then and at an immense profit
now. The half bale per acre. which is
just an ordinary crop, is now worth
$50, the good crop Of bale to the acre
$50. The negro help which produces
it costs not over 80 cents per day We
have no crop in the north which quite
equals this for profit. II.
The state Of Iowa owns over 5000
Poland China hogs which nre raised
and kept at the several state insHtu-
Hons asyiums, hospitals and peniten-

produced than the 5000 inmates can

Swidensky, a life prisoner at the state
prison, sent up in 1896 for the murder
Of Mrs Myron R. Kent at Mandan,
died this morning after a years ill.,
ness of inaammatory rheumatism.
Swidensky confessed to having COM
mitted n of the most sensational
murders in the history of the state,
and charged Kent with having insti-
gated the crime and aided him to do
the deed Kent, whose real name
was Pancoast, was twice tried for the
murder and both times convicted and
sentenced to death. His sentence was
committed to Imprisonment for life on
the eve Of bis execution by Governor
Allin.
The murdered woman was former
ly Julia Laird of Minneapolis, and
Frank M. Nye, the attorney, and
Detective Hoy were both active in
the prosecution of Kent.
So far as known, Swidensky made
no statement before his death, al
though the prison officials have expect
ed that he might throw some further
light on his connection with the
crime. He is the first life prisoner to
die in the penitentiary. The coron-
er's inquest was held this afternoon,
in accordance with the law.

BODY NOT YET FOUND

The rumors that were flying around
town Wednesday, to the effect that
the body of little Chrisie Miller had
been found, proved to be without any
foundation. It is thought it will
probably be found at the creek. There
were so many stories told relative to
the capsizing of the boat and the
drowning of the little fellow, that it
was almost impossible to get the true
version Of it. Captain VanBuren
thought that the name of the lad
rescued by him was Hyers, but was
not sure. Since then it was confirmed
by another party, but has since been
denied and it is claimed that it was a
boy who used to reside here, but is
living at Perth Amboy. His name is
VanPelt and they say he was visitor.
