The following is the program
for the convention at Middle

lard field at Knox college between the
mines of Knox and Monmouth colleges,
ana the athletic meet in the afternoon
at Williams track AT the latter the
track events will he 30, 100, 200 ana
44O-yard dashes. one-half mile and
mile runs. 22O-yard low hurdles and "a

high jump, pole vault. putting 12-pound
shot and throwing 12-pOund hammer.
These events viii be run OFT under the
direction of the athletic department
of Knox college.
In explanation of the seeming rival
~ of the meet with that of the Mill
tary Tract association, 4 circular let
ter says:
In May. 1901. Knox college held its
first interstate meet and the sec
ond the following year. Last year il
cooperated with the Western Illinois
Association of high schools, and this
year il has accepted the invitation OF
the Military Tract association of high
schools to superntend the athletic
contest for the associations meet 10
be held in Galesburg May Is.
Knox college is glad TO cooperate
with associations OF high schools to
make their meets successful. but il has
an interest also in secondary schools
that do not belong To these asSOcia-
lions and desires equally to cultivate
an acquaintance between these and
Knox college. Moreover. we are as
sured by the officers of the Military
Tract ASSOCIATION that they viii regard
such an open meet with favor. The
conviction Of the success of the previ-
Gus meets is enforced by requests
from various secondary schools for in
formation respecting the meet OF
1904
1T seems desirable. therefore, to re-
turn 10 the open meet already held I'M
der the auspices of the college, and the
reasons which led to its establish
ment are as strong today as in 1901"

HENRY COUNTY FARMER
LOSES $1,000 RESIDENCE

The residence of Frank H. Edwards
i'm Western township, which lies just
east of the Rock Island county line
adjoining Rural, was burned to the
ground Thursday, the loss being total
so far as the house was concerned.
The fire caught in the attic at an
early hour in the morning and spread
very rapidly. The household goods
on the first floor were saved, but ev-
erything in the upper part of the
house was consumed. The house was
rebuilt last fall at Il cost of 5000.
The fire caught presumably from the
contact between the chimney and the
roof. Mr.. Edwards has taken his fam
lily to the home of relatives. He came
to Geneseo today to look for a house,
it being his intention to move his
family there fer residence If he can
find satisfactory dwelling.

MOLINE MENTION

For 10 years The Dorcas society has
given an annual fair. each one excel
ling its predecessor in some point.
The orange fair" as. conceived this
year. was one of the most novel of
the events given by this organization.
The home OF Capt. w. c. Bennett,
where the fair was held Thursday af-
ternOon and evening, was decorated
in a manner unique in design and
which at the same time transformed
the rooms into pleasant scene of
the southland. The idea of the orange
grove was cleverly carried out, and
one could almost imagine he was
transported to the cline where the
orange is king.

afternoon, at the Office of Coroner
Fred Lambach in the Whitaker block.

reported to be in critical condition.
On account of her being unable to be
in attendance at the inquest, she was
visited at the bedside by Assistant
County Attorney {. II. Murphy and
Justice Louis Roddewig. These two
gentlemen heard the girls story, and
after gathering all the evidence they
could. arrived at the conclusion that
there was no criminality attached to
the child's death on the part of the
mother. The theory is that during
the mothers illness, she being unat-
tended at the time. the child was
either born dead or had suffocated
soon after being given birth. 1t is
likely no criminal action viii be
brought
