.valuable- collection of curios that has
been left by Mr.. Mansill should in
some manner be permanently secured
for the benefit of the people of Rock
Island as the owner had for so many
years intended that it should be. In
some respects it is perhaps unrivalled
and it would certainly prove a source
of instruction and delight to the gen
erations to come, and a worthy mon
ument to him who gave so much of
his time to gathering it together.
How to accomplish this is a matter
that should be given immediate con-
sideration and no time should be lost
in acting. as much of the value of the
collection depends upon its being kept
intact. The suggestion has been made
that a hall of science should be es-
tablished in which Prof. Mansill's
curios could be made the nucleus of Il
collection of a wider scope. This
might be located at Longview park.
which would surely be n most desira-
BILE location for it. 1t has also been
pointed out that the third floor of the
new library building will probably
have room for il for years to come.
1t would be Of particular value to the
school children, and some are inclined
to think the board of education ought
to look after securing and placing it
on exhibition.

Author of Numerous Works
From n youth he showed passion
for scientific investigation. First he
studied geology, becoming familiar
with the nature of the earth's crust.
incidentally he took up natural sci
ence and later astronomy. Beginning
with but Il common school education,
through diligent study ard research
in his leisure moments he became an
acknowledged authority in the vari-
Gus lines to which he directed his at
tention.
He was not only a great student
and thinker, but he spent a great
deal of time writing. the works from
his pen embodying the mcst advanced
thought of the time in which he
wrote. His more comprehensive
works included Geology and Micro
scopy Illustrated" "A New System of
Universal Science" Cohesive Attrac-
ton and Formation of Worlds"
Earthquakes and Volcanic Erup-
tions," Universal Changes in Natur-
al Elements "The New Law of GRAY
Cholera and Planetary Epi-
denies and THE Passion Tragedies
of the Nineteenth Century" His an
nual almanac of Planetary Meteor
ology" was first published i'm 1876 and
regularly thereafter till
1901. when the author found his
nealth declining to such an extent
that he was forced to discontinue the
work. The almanac circulated all
over this country and in England and
was accepted as standard everywhere.
a Wish UnreaIIzed.
Prof. Mansill's death prevented him
from carrying out a long cherished
wish. that of establishing a museum
of natural curiosities in the care of
which he should spend his declining
years. For over forty years he had
been making the collection of the
things he wished to place on exhibit
ton and for great part of the time
he had been preparing the building at
the corner of Third avenue and Twen- |
ty-second street as the place in which |
The curosities should be placed.
In the making of the collection he |
a great deal, visiting nearly |
all parts of America and some places |
n Europe. The collection he amassed |
with so much care includes rare geo |
ogical specimens, Indian. relics, stuff
I'd animals, etc. The collection of |
shells is one of the most complete i'm
lginable and includes great number
IF the different varieties.
His home is filed with these things |
md the cases that they were to have |
been exhibited in. In his life their |
1wner knew every article and could |
pick it out and give its history and |
scientific name.
A Considerable Fortune Left.
In addition to the collection with |
he many scientific Instruments, |
and other works of art, are

perhaps $125.000. a deed was filed /

20 years of age he came to America
and after year or such a matter he
settled here. His first regular employ

coal mines at Coaltown. Being indus

A remarkable life story is reported
from Lyons. In consequence of a com
plant lodged by a local butcher, q
young man, of weak and miserable ap-
pearance, was arrested for theft. He
protested that he was innocent of the
charge, and that he had never before
been in the hands of the police, says
Paris report to the Chicago Inter
Ocean. ITO prove the truth Of my.
statement" he continued, barring his
breast, "look 1t this, and see whether
it would not be easy to establish my
identity"
The young fellow having stripped to
the waist, it was found that his body
was entirely tattooed with historical
scenes, which included the murder of
tLe Duo de Guise and the death Of Pres
ident Carnot.
The mans life story was as remark
able as the rest. Son Of the wife of q
superior officer in the French army.
and born out of wedlock at Marseilles.
he was placed by his mother with a
woman in that town, who received so
francs q month for some years for his
keep. Afterward he served on several
coasting vessels as cooks boy, where
he met a former student of the Beaux-
Arts school, who was also in difficult
ties, and who tattooed his body in =
most artistic manner.

mands Of the men upon the double
header question would simply open
the door to a demand for a Standard
cation Of trains. The Great Northern
runs OILY about three per. cen of
double headers, but owing to it's low
ii'grades and heavy motive power IS
aUle to haul much longer trains with
single engine than any of its compe-
titors. With standard trains, how
fever, the advantage the road enjoys
by reason of low grades and high
motive power, would be gone. This,
Fit is understood, is the reason the
road stood out so strenuously against
the demands of the men on this
question
Word was received by the local
railroad men in Devils Lake Thurs
day that the railroad company ac.
ceeded to the demands Of the train
men on the double-header proposition,
and that there. would be no strike.

LAND.

Charles Mulhalland, an old and
respected citizen of this county, died
at his home in Grand Harbor town
ship Tuesday. The deceased had been
a sufferer from asthma for several
years. Last winter was spent in
Arizona in the hope that the cha nge
would prove beneficial. A short time
ago he returned and last week he was
in town greeting his many old time
friends, and it seemed that he was
much improved in health. His death
therefore came as a great surprise.
He was up and around last Sunday.

mother and sister Of Mrs. Mulbolland
had just arrived from Seattle, Wash
ington: for a visit. Sunday evening
he was taken with a relapse and he
gradually failed until he passed away.
He was AZ years of age, and was a
member of the Woodmen lodge. The
funeral will take place from the
Catholic church in this city today
