Has Great Curative Properties.

Physicians and medical authorities
are giving more and more attention to
the unusual curative properties of
Pluto Water, and it is now fairly well
established that this water, which
comes from the French Lick Springs,
Indiana, is probably the most highly
medicinal of any natural mineral water
in the United States. Some of the
most remarkable cures on record are
attested to by those who have taken
the waters, not only at the Springs
but on doctors prescriptions at home.
This constitutes one of the marked diff
feTences between Pluto Water and the
common varieties Pluto Water loses
nothing in the bottling-others do. As
cure for digestive arrangement, stom-
ach troubles, kidney diseases, chronic
constipation, etc, Pluto Water is now
regarded as constituting a class of
Itself. Proof of this is the fact that
nearly all druggists now carry it. not
only in the 25-cent and 35-cent bottles,
but in 15-cent bottles as well.

Boy. Bound Over to
Grand Jury.
ALSO WANTED IN DAVENPORT
Served Jail Sentence in That City for
Stealing Chickens-Other Offend
ers in Court.

James Ray. the 52-Eear-old colored
boy who was arrested on the charge OF
stealing bicycles, was bound over to
the grand jury on a charge of larceny,
his bond being fixed at $500. Besides
the two wheels he had stolen here
there are two thefts that are laid to
aim in Davenport-bicyle having been
taken from the high school building
They were found at a Junk shop where
they had been sold by the boy for %
cents each. The dealer had kept
record of the purchase and the police
were given the right tip. The Daven-
port officers went after him. but he
made his escape to this side of the
river. The Rock Island department
was notified and took the lad into cuf-
lody. Recently he served a term in the
county Jail in Davenport for stealing
chickens. He admitted having taken
20 from the plant of Armour & Co. in
that city.

The pair had been hitting the bowl to

stopped to see the performance and in
a short time large enough crowd had
gathered to attract the police, and they
were forced to let go.

Mckinney MAY FIND
OUT HE is MISTAKEN
Returns from Rock Island County Pro-
Tossing to Believe He Has
Cinch.

The republican county central com
mittee met here yesterday and discus
sed political matters with the congress
sional candidate. James Mckinney.
Mr.. Mckinney has just returned from
Rock Island county. and reports that
the vote for him will be the full party
strength, and that all the indications
are that McCaskrin has lost much
ground since his campaign a year ago.
No one here is in sympathy with any
movement or opinion of the attorney
general that will rule McCaskrin's
name off the official ballot because of
alleged deficiencies according to the
rules of the new primary law. No pri-
maries were held anywhere according
to that law, which the best judges of
the legislature say was not TO be in
force until Jan. /, 1906.-Aledo Times
Record
Mr.. Mckinney is likely to find that
he is whistling in a graveyard. The
voters of Rock Island county are fami-
liar with his record as member of the
railway and warehouse commission
and knowing as they do, that he, if
elected, can hardly fail to be a better
representative of the railway interests
than of the peoples in general they are
not likely TO flock TO his standard.

NO INTENTION Whatever
OF "BUTTING IN" HERE
A Little More of the Moline Dispatch
Toward the Upper River
Convention

The Moline Dispatch accuses Rock
Island of Quitting in" on the Upper
Mississippi River convention at La
Crosse in reply TO the story published
in The Argus of the unneighborly at.
titude of the Moline delegation toward
the plan of this city to secure next
years convention. The Dispatch holds
that Moline had its plans laid for the
convention two years ahead before
Rock Island entered its claim. and had
the reason for its position. That is in
deed a lame eXcuSe-becauSe Moline
had set its heart on the convention two
years away, Rock Island was putting
in" and acting unneighborly in asking
it next year. The fact that Rock Is
land yielded when it was found that
Moline was inclined to do its best to
keep it away from this locality until
Moline got good and ready to entertain
it, showed which city was the more
neighborly in its disposition. But then
it is a small thing TO quarrel over.
There is no objection here to Moline
having the convention whenever il
reaches the state of ample prepared
ness, regardless of the exceedingly un-
becoming demeanor of the leaders of
The Moline delegation at La Crosse.
Meanwhile if Rock Island should
take it into its head to go after a CON
vention. now that its sister city is in
that line of business, it viii try to as
certain Moline's future aspirations be
fore moving II there is anything this
town does not want TO be accused of it
