l. AT the council meeting Tuesday
eteniog L. A. Marvin, deputy county
auditor; was before the body and ex.
psainedstf1e amount of uncollected
special assessments being carried
by the city, the total at the present
time being $7,2792l, not including a
list of about $1,000 which was recent
~ sent to the auditors office.
The collections of those assess
|;nients under the present law is al
most an impossibiity, as they do
|nU become tax lien, for the sale of
property but simply lie in the aud.
itor's Office to be cleaned up when
transfer of the property is made.
|, Mr.. Marvin suggested remedy
(which met with approval, it being
the introduction and passage of
bill making these assessments
ausefiable to the general law gov.
erninE taxation and the council in
structed Attorney Shea to draft
such measure and appointed him
and City Clerk Bickford to go to St.
Paul to- work for it's introduction
and passage.
i Fhe council by resolution declar-
led against the "Public Utilities Bill"
now pending before the Legislature,
it being explained by the attorney
Ithat the bill wag evidently a ma

Company of Minneapolis. with the
:purpo e of saddling perpetual fran

tions on four lots in Block 81, be-

Mona Is the best prescription for
stomach trouble ever written; not only
does it give quick relief. but it cures
permanently because 1t thoroughly
cleanses, renovates, builds up and puts
elasticity into the stomach and bowels.
Mona is put up in tablet form and is
small and easy to swallow. Sold by

Rock Island by H. o. Rolls, who rig
idly guarantees them. Test sample

QUICKER KILOGRAMS NOW.
Device to Make Telegraph Office Out
of Every Telephone Station.

Device to Make Telegraph Office Out
of Every Telephone Station.
A revolutionary change in the tele
graphic facilities of New York city was
recently predicted by persons holding
high Office in the new merger of tele-
phone and telegraph interests. formed
by the American Telephone and Teie-
graph company securing the Western
Union. The messenger running. or.
more often walking. to the telegraph
Office with the dispatch is to be elimi-
mated.
According to these plans, it will soon
be possible for the telephone subscri5-
er to write out his dispatch on an
electric machine. which will reproduce
it simultaneously in the office of the
telegraph company This will virtually
make a telegraph Office out OF every
telephone station and will add ener-
mously to the facilities of the tele-
graph companies.
Persons in authority said that it
would be only a short time before such
a device would be placed at the COM
mand Of all the large business houses
of the United States.
1t is believed that such an inStrU-
ment can be supplied to large sub
scribers at virtually no extra expense.
while it will be possible for small sub
scribers to have it at a relatively low
cost
The charge for such writing ma
chine with direct telegraph connec-
ton will not probably in any case ex-
coed 500. In cases where from three
to four hundred messages are sent
each day there will be no extra eX-
pense whatever. One result of this
Improvement will be to provide all
telephone subscribers with almost in
Simultaneous telegraph service. and
there is no doubt that 1t win divert To
the telegraph company a large volume
of the business that is now handled
at much larger expense over the long
distance telephone system. One very
important development expected tC
follow the working out of the alliance
between the telephone company and
the telegraph company is the ultimate
reduction in the expense of sending q
telegraph message.
One of the highest officers of the
telephone company said that he be
lIeved 1t would be possible after awhile
for the telegraph company 70 accept
MESA geS on the basis of a twenty-five
cent charge for g fifteen word mes
sage. instead of 4 ten word message.

Millions of
Lives Lost
An Awful Toll Collected by Con
sumption. Many Unneces-
sary Deaths from this
Disease,

If people could only understand
that systemic catarrh is an internal
disease that external applications
cannot cure, they would not need to
be warned so often about this mall
ady, which. when neglected. paves
the way oftentimes for consumption,
at the cost of millions of lives every
year. Yet catarrh may be cured, if
the right treatment is employed
Catarrh is caused by a general
diseased state of the system which
leads commonly to annoying and
perhaps serious local conditions,
which may prove a fertile breeding
ground for germs Of consumption.
External remedies give but tempo
rary ease.
The only way to successfully treat
catarrh is by employing a medicine
which is absorbed and carried by the
blood to all parts of the system, so
that the mucous membrane or in
ternal lining of the body is toned up
and made capable of resisting the
infection of consumption and other
diseases.
VIC nave a lSIlCuS plGpdiS0 II Olu
the prescription of a physician who
for 80 years studied and made ca
tarrh speciality, and whose record
was patient restored 20 health in
every case where his treatment was
followed as prescribed. That rem
edy is ReXall Mucu-Tone. We are so
positive that it will completely over
come catarrh in all it's various forms.
whether acute or chronic, that we
promise to return every penny paid
us for the medicine in every case
where it fails or for any reason does
not satisfy the user.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We are right here where
you live, and you do not contract
any obligation or risk when you try
Rexali Mucu-Tone on our guarantee.
We have Rexall Mucu-Tone in two
sizes, so cents and $500. Very Of
ten the taking of one so cent bottle
is sufficient to make a marked i'm
preston upon the case. OF course in
chronic eases a longer treatment is
necessary. The average in such in
stances is three $1.00 bottles. Re-
member you can obtain Rexall Rem
edies in Rock Island only at our
store-the Rexall store. The Thomas
Drug company.

sonville. The kindly darkey whose
shambling walk has been a familiar
sight on the streets for many years
has become so infirm that it is impos-
sible for him to carry on the chores
through which he has gained a liYeIi-
hood. No matter if he were a victim
of locomotOr ataxia, old King kept
faithfully at work day after day IN
good season and bad, picking up what
work he could find and attending 20
the chores at the home of Miss Sarah
Reed on Eighteenth street. At times
when the streets and walks were slip.
perry it would seem impossible for one
with his infrmities TO get about, but
King and his little wagon never failed
to make their customary trips for ar
tesian water. He had but little con-
troll of the muscles of his legs, but
this infrmity could not deter one of
such tireless energy sustained by a de-
termination to put off as far as posi-
BILE the time when he might be a care
to anyone. His work and his attend
ance on church were two cOnsidera-
tions that King would not neglect.

Ryegate, Mont, Nov. 27.-Editor
The Rock Island Argus: Having prom
ised a number Of my friends to. write
and tell them about my new Montana
home, l think it best TO send this let
ter TO you for publication, as then it
will get to all of them. and save me
considerable time, instead of sending
them all a letter, and will also boost
Ryegate. Mont AS this is to be a
letter to all my friends 1 Will word
1t as | would to a friend, so starting
at the beginning. l Will say l never
struck a more healthful place in all
my life and with so much busi.ess
and work for a new town, it being
only six months old. Any tradesman.
such as carpenter or plasterer or
blacksmith can earn from $3.50 to So
a day and common laboreT gets his so
cents an hour. OF course groceri IS
and provisions are a little higher than
in Rock Island, but wages are a good
deal better, so we can make both ends
meet. For a town six months old we
have a general store, hotel, saloon,
restaurant, livery and feed stable,
Z
house, and prospects of a good deal
more in the spring. What this town
needs, and needs bad, is hardware
store. barber shop, butcher shop and
another good general store, as the
man running the store at present has
more to do than he can handle. He
| sells more than a carload of provisions
a week and then runs out of things
quite often. He has sold 10000 bar
rels of -four in the last month and
more canned milk and other canned
goods than he could tell without look
ing at his books.
AS to the land, person can't say
too much for 1t, as wheat, oats, barley
and alfalfa give big yields. Oats sell
at $3.50 a hundred and alfalfa at $40
a ton. Potatoes also give an excep-
tionally big yield and sell at 81 a
hundred. Cabbage, peas, beans, beats,
carrots. sweet corn aud other vegeta-
bles do we'll
Land close to the railroad sells
from $40 to $50 an acre and homestead
land can be had from Is to 20 miles
from Ryegate in both directions, but
the best land lies south of the Mus
seIlshelI river. The soil is of a rich
chocolate loan such as that which
lies in the vicinity Of Yakahama,
Wash, where the best apples are
raised. Everybody seems to like this
country and are all expecting to stay
and make this their home. Everyone
is on the move and getting things
ready for spring planting.
Anyone wishing to take up home
stead should ship out a few cattle for
milking, and horses, as horses are
high and good milk cows can't he
bought for less than SIS.
We have had two SHOWS, the first
about two weeks ago and the second
on the 26th, but 1t only lasted few
days on account of the warm Chinook
winds which melt it IN a hurry. We
have been working in our shirt sleeves
nearly every day so far. The coolest
it has BEEN this season was 6 below,
