PARADE SCENE OF SPLENDID
Ringing Bros. Street Display is Fl
of New Surprises.

What is said TO be the greatest paro
ade ever seen in Rock Island will pasA
through the principal streets of thet
city on Tuesday. July 16. when Ring
ling Bros. once again unfold their NAM
moth tents for days visit.
Since the greatest of all circuses was
last seen here several hundred people
have been added to this organization !:
the menagerie has been enlarged till
now it is the most complete geological
collection in the world. and an entirely
new spectacle of unique design and
color has been conceived. The circus
is now so large that the railroads are
taxed almost TO the swapping point by
the task of Transporting it from city to
CITY while as to the loading and un-
loading every day of the mile-and-a half
long train it is possible only because
of the wonderful method and the per
feet discipline of the Ringing system
The parade this season is entirely
new in design and equipment, and sor
geous with rich oriental drapings. the
finest of silks and broadcloths, silver
spun harness, imported hand-carved
and sold-wasned chariots and floats
The procession is fully three miles Ions
and it is peopled by 1886 men, womer
and children from every zone, in ma
tive garb. In the history of circus at
fairs in America no such magniicencs
was ever displayed.
This splendid spectacle is sent on
by the Ringing Bros. as an indication
of the size and splendor of the, exhibi
ton under canvas: and ponderous a
1t is in size. as infinite in variety AM
costly in dress, it is a promise that /
faithfully kept to the letter. The so
performers are for the most paFt fror
Europe and are on their first tour @
this country The acts presented ar
all new and much more striking tina

Appoints Vicar General.-Bishop Da-

Sacred Heart cathedral Sunday of the
appointment of Rev. J. r. A. Flanna-
gan. D. D., as pastor of the cathedral.
In making the announcement Bishop
Davis spoke of Rev. FlannaSan's long
and valued services under the late
Bishop Cosgrove and of the fact that
he was conforming TO the well known
desires of Bishop Cosgroye in confer

Secret Service Men Here.-The dis
covery of a counteTfeiter's mold in the
railway yards in the western part of
the city has been the means of hasten
ing a number of United States secret
service men to this city. The mold
found was an ingenious piece of work.
If was constructed in cigar box with
The use of Il fine grade or cement. The
mold contained l. dies. one for a %
cent piece and - for niclels. so that
50 cents could be turned out at one
casting In the center was a round
hole into which the metal was poured,
and from this center was a tube run
ming to each of the dies. 1t is suspect
ed that the many spurious nickels with
which the slot machines have been
worked outside of the city of late were
made in this mold The mold is now
in the possession of the government
agents in the city and they are en-
deavoring to locate its owner.

Upon Which To Build New
Church.
BEAUTIFUL new EDIFICE
Planned by First Baptist
Congregation.
Negotiations Well Underway for
Purchasing the Ritzhaupt Proper
ty on Church Street.

There is a strong probability that
some time in the not Iar distant fu-
ture the congregation of the First
Baptist church will have a beautiful
new place OF worship on the Ritz
haupt property at the corner Of
Church and Pearl streets. Negotia-
tions are now pending between the
congregation and the owners of the
Ritzhaupt property and there is a
likelihood that in a short time the
purchase will be made.
The present place of worship on
North State street was originally
decided to the congregation for church
purposes only and Just what disposi-
ton could be made of 1t in case a
new edifice is built is a matter of
conjecture. There is a probability
that 1t would be sold TO some other
congregation.
In their effort to get a new church
the members OF the congregation are
hopeful OF eliciting substantial aid
from John d. Rockefeller, SO 1t is
reported. Mr.. Rockefeller is an
ardent Baptist and contributes lib
orally to what is known as the
church building fund. He never fails
