HUNDREDS SKATE ON CANAL
Heavy Traffic on the Milan Line Yes
terday Afternoon.

The skating on the canal yesterday
drew hundreds of the young people
from the three cities, and the ice, both
above and below the bridges, was
thronged from early in the morning
until late at night. The weather con-
ditions were perfect for the sport, and
many of those on the ice felt that yes
terday might be the last opportunity
to skate before the ice becomes GOV
cred with snow. The traffic back and
forth on the Milan line was so heavy
yesterday that the regular cars were
not able to handle the business and
extra cars were operated during the
afternoon.

A SUNDAY PARADE
Mayor and Police Squadron Take
Up Three Saloon liz
censes.
OPENED AGAINST HIS ORDERS
Does the Act With the Usual Spec
tacular Accompani-
ments.

After a whole week without doing
anything extraordinary Mayor Nc
Caskrin jumped into the limelight
again Sunday in a personally con-
Quoted crusade, taking possession
of three saloon licenses. those is
sued TO the Cross Country buff
fet. the Rock Island house and
Turner hall A tour of the rest of the
town was made. but it availed nothing.
Flanked fore and aft and on either side
by stalwart policemen, the boy mayor
started out in his spectacular tour just
at the church-going hour in the morn
ing.
Test of Authority.
II is understood that the action on
the part of some of the saloons
IN opening yesterday was par
tally to test the authority of the
mayor as a municipal executive to
close their doors on Sunday. when the
city has no ordinance requiring them
to keep closed on that day. In this action
the mayor, 1t is held, is taking into his
hands the state law. and it was under
legal advice, go it is said. that certain
saloons were opened yesterday. AL
though certain ones were informed that
the mayer was about to swoop down
upon them, they left their doors open
Play TO People.
Contrary to the unwritten law of
mayoralty conduct in whicn the chief
executive has in a quiet and dignified
manner exercised his power of reyoca
ton over the saloons and the chief of
police had a patrolman so notify the
keeper. in his own manner of public ex-
hibition and play. Mayor McCaskrin
yesterday morning, after the streets
were filled. sailed up the avenue with
his blue coated squadron and demand
ed the licenses taken. Numerous 9TH
er saloons were open in the city and
were awaiting his coming until they
learned that the licenses were being
taken away and then the doors were
barred.
Course of Mayor.
Since the mayor had been recently
convinced that the Sunday saloon is a
wicked institution and had ordered all
such places closed on that day, it occa-
stoned no surprise that he should en-
force his order The only criticism offer
ed is of the manner in which he did il
and the Inconsistencies Gccompap ying
it, For instance the lid is on the sa-
looms, but the gaming houses con
tinue to run. The slot machines that
are played in the light of the public
have been removed as a part of the re
venge policy, but the fleeing dens OF
gamblers are again open. One of these
is in operation on Second avenue and
one on Eighteenth street. and poker
game is still in progress on Seven
teenth street.
Worst of All Goes Unchecked.
And worst of all there has been no
check upon the dives that harbor wo-
men, IL of such places having been
in operation last week

When You Have a Cold.

The first action when you have cold should be to relieve the lungs. This is best accomplished by the free use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. This Remedy liqueties the tough mucus and causes its expulsion from the air cells of the lungs, produces free expector- ation, and opens the secretions. A complete cure soon follows. this remedy will cure severe cold in less time than any other treatment, and it leaves the system in a natural and healthy condition. It counteracts any tendency toward pneumonia. For sale by all druggists.
