Tracks
FOR PROTECTION OF CATTLE
Have Already Been Done
Him.

| Asking $4,000 for damages that he
alleges to have already suffered, Will
liam Killing. of Coal Valley. this morn
ing filed an additional suit in the cir
cult court seeking a writ of mandamus
to issue against the Chicago Rock
Island & Pacific railway to compel it
to erect and maintain fence along
its right of way running through his
farm to protect his cattle horses and
hogs from the cars and also to pre-
vent his stock trespassing on the prop
erty of his neighbors and vice versa.
Difference of Long Standing.
There has evidently been a differ
ence of long standing between Killing
and the railroad company. for he
states in his bill, which enters into
the details extensively. that he has
repeatedly called the attention of the
officers of the road to it's violation of
the state law in failing TO erect fences
along the track where il passes
through his land. The company. he
relates. has informed him that il is not
legally compelled 10 afford the protec-
ton that he has been demanding.
His stock I'm Danger.
The property through which the
railroad tracks pass, Killing states,
he wishes to use for grazing pur-
poses, but that he can do so only at
the risk of having his stock killed
by trains. The absence of the fence.
he alleges, inflicts the additional annoy
ance of affording a free passage for
the stock belonging TO the owner of
the farm adjoining his to come over
onto his land and Craze on the grass
that should be fattening his stock.
Killing is represented in his suits by
kenworthy & Kenworthy.

A Suitable Convention Hail. Rock
Island needs suitable convention hall.
For number of years Rock Island was
one of the most prominent convention
cities in the state This was due to
the advantages that the city possessed
in the way of drawing the attention of
representative bodies and the enter
prise with which the advantages We're
brought before such interests as il is
sought To awaken. But while the city
maintains some of the most striking
advantages in a marked degree that it
has heretofore had. il has been out
stripped by some of the other cities in
the matter of suitable convention
hall. Peoria and Springfield have made
provision for great gatherings of a
most attractive nature. This city has I'M
surpassed hotel accommodations and it
has one of the best theatres IN the state,
but the added advantage of a hall of
sufficient proportions to accommodate
great conventions is also desired. This
is therefore an enterprise that the club
which put the theatre through success
fully proposes to likewise undertake.

More New Factories.-Every city
needs all the factories il can secure
Rock Island has made steady advance
ment in tbs direction, but should not
stop here. The opportunity is at hand
for the encouragement of additional
manufacturing enterprises. There are
a number that desire to cast their lot
with Rock Island. They should be con-
WINGED that they will be made welcome
and given every proper advantage.
These various undertakings may we'll
command the energies of the Rock ISL
and Club. directly to whose efforts is
due the building of Rock Islands new
theatre. and the location here of the
table oil cloth factory, and numerous
smaller industries.

church.
Finally. through the efforts Of Mr.
higgins. the evangelical committee of
the Presbyterian church was aroused
to the importance of the lumber camps
as a mission field. Mr.. Higgins gave
mp his pastorate at Barnum. and de-
voted all his time To the men in the
lumber camps. He now has five as
sistants. each of whom visits about %
camps about once in every two weeks.
Can't Use Horses.
All use dog teams. for there are
many places through which a horse
team cannot pass. and the dogs are
more easily cared for than horses.
A system Of hospitals has been e.
tablished for the lumbermen by the
Catholic sisters.

Makino Artificial Eubies.

Few problems have had greater in
terest for the chemist than the art!-
fetal preparation Of diamonds and
other precious stones, though their
efforts have not been marked with
conspicuous success, despite the in
vention of the electric furnace and
other means of producing high tenn
perature. A recent process is the
making of artificial rubies, and has
been discovered by German chemist
named Verneuil. 1t consists OF fusing
q mixture of clay and chromium oxide
with the heat of an oxyhydrogen burn
e- and then allowing the mass to cool
suddenly, thus producing crystals.
The two materials are placed in alter
nate horizontal layers, and the heat,
which is as intense as possible. is ap-
plied from above. The quick cooling
caused by suddenly shutting off the
blast produces the hardness charac-
teristic of the ruby; and the resulting
crystal, which is. pure and brilliant. is
said to possess all the physical prop
critics of the natural gem, being cut
readily and taking fine polish.-Har

God Dominates All.

As the mountain OF Fujiyama dominates
the landscape in Japan, as the temple hills
around, SO we believe God is to be exalted
in this vast community, 80 as to dominate
it all. The sense of God is not fading: it
is increasing. To Him We lift up our eyes
as unto the mountains. The church is to
nourish this consciousness of God, and to
express it in lives of spiritual power. Oh,
then, how one comes to love the church
when once her real mission is seen. We
are set to invite the world. to come to its
only true home Wandering hearts, un-
easy consciences, troubled souls, cone to
the home of homes, in Gods great love
and blessed service. Let the gates open
wide. that the multitudes may press INTO
the home Of their hearts. On. church OF
God, let your faith be large and bright,
that the world may come home. Erect no

German Red Tape.

Red tape as made in Germany
seems to be a very choice article. A
German woman sends London Truth
the following anecdote: A female
teacher in a school in Westphalia had
to make an official communication to
the Minister Of Education. She used
for the purpose what is called "eagle
paper" having the royal eagle upon
it as water mark, and duly dis.
patched it to Berlin through the School
Board of Essen. After few days
the letter came back, with an intima'
ton that it must be rewritten, as the
eagle appeared upon it head down
ward. Evidently Berlin smell Males

The Christians Answer.

This is the reply we Christians make to
those who say that religion is mythical and
that il retreats into some secret place
where no mere intellectually can wholly
follow it. It surely is mystical in these in
innate experiences of the soul, but does it
not come forth again and move through
the activities Of human life, out in the
open world chastened, beautihed and
Christ-like spirit? This is our answer.
Conscious of sin and imperfections, this IS
still our answer. God is our home; $ Sowiy
we Weld cur stubborn natures to His con.
slant pressure. His presence, is our best
education. He is the great beautitler OF
human life. Differ as we may in our ereeos
and philosophers, this is the issue OF reag-
ion. this is the product Of fellowship with
Him, our Father, our God, our eternal ref
noe and home.

Swimming the Best Exercise.

A series Of experiments, conduct
ed by physiological chemistry at the
university Of Pennsylvania, has
proved that swimming is the most
beneficial exercise. He visited the
dressing rooms at the athletic field,
and Immediately before each athlete
left for his exercise drew blood from
him by means Of the regularly pre-
pared sterile needle. Then, when
the athlete returned to the dressing
room, after running, jumping, pole
vaulting. or engaging in water polo
the needle would again be brought
into play, and a second sample OF
blood drawn. Analysis Of the blood,
to discover how far each exercise
increased the number Of red cor
puscles, showed that water polo and
other forms Of swimming resulted in
the largest increase. The swimming
exercises were thus shown to be the
most beneficial, for the greater num-
ber of red corpuscles. the richer is
an average increase Of 21 per cent.
as against II per cent. for the next
best exercise-shoTt-distance rum
ming
After one OF these examinations,
during the athletic season, while the
men were in the pink Of condition
and exerting themselves to the ut
most, DR.. Hawk found the following

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion ofthe ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by conssi-
tutfonal remedies. Deafnessis caused by an
infiamed condition OF the mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumblingsound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the infam-
NATION can be taken out and this tube re-
STORED to it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever. Nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infa,ned condition Of the mucous surfaces.
