From which ii will be readily OBJ
served that the Hon Thomas E. Wat

the impression that the senior and not
the junior Rosser was to be one of

Mr.. Watson charged that Mr.. Rosser
was placed upon the Fulton delegation
by somebody. to deponent unknown
particularly to spite Mr.. Watson. From
the tone of Mr. Watson's vehement
anti -Rosser article, many people were
led to think that Mr. Rosser's only OBJ
ject in getting himself on that COM
mittee was because he didn't like Mr..
Watson-or because Mr.. Watson mag
ines he doesn't. anyway-and that the
reason of the Rosser dislike grew out
Of a case in court won by Mr.. Watson
while Mr.. Rosser was on the other side.
Mr. Watson's various Rosser suspi-
cions and apprehensions might have
convinced lot Of people that the city
politicians are really attacking Watson

fling circumstance that Mr.. Rosser, Sr
is not TO be on the delegation, and
never has been mentioned for it.

 ABUSED PRIVILEGE Probation Officer Canning yesterday morning reported to the sheriff's office that he did not care to be responsible for the safe keeping of Arthur Brown any longer. Brown is the boy who was caught breaking into the Pastime bowling alley for the fourth time. He is a rather nice looking youth though he has not a very good record, per haps because he has not had good opportunities. Anyway the probation officer agreed to take charge of him. The boy was to repoT; to the jail for his meals and to turn in every evening at 6 o'clock Brown Was not careful about fulfilling these conditions and on Thursday night he did not report until 9 o'clock. He might not have come then if Officer Gaskin had not brought him in.

The fact that the scenes of the play,
Over Night, which is to appear at
the Grand Opera House Friday, Jan.
IL, are laidon the Hudson river steam
boat "Hendrick Hudson, brings to
mind another boat play Of twenty
FIVE years. ago. 1t was called Fun
on-the- Bristol" and was played with
great success for several years in the
States and Canada by an actor named
Sheridan. 1t was one OF the big hits
AT that time, was great moncy-maker,
and was considered big novelty.
The Bristol was one of the Fall River
line CT steamers plying Long Island
Sound, and was considered the pride
of the line in her day. She has long
since gone to the junk pile. and her
place taken by larger and more mod
ern boats. Sheridan took the play
tc England, and also to Australia, and
he died in the latter country Fun
on-the- Bristol was an overwhelmingly
funny play, but it is said that the com
pany owning the boat objected to it
on account of the ridicule and un.
favorable light in which it placed its
officers. OF course, there have been
no end of plays in which the action
has taken place on board ship, but the
only one that comes to mind that IN
any way resembles the way in which
the steamboat is used in over Night
is old "Fun-on-the-B Bristol.

Second Largest Boat in the Blair
Fleet Disposed of to Capt. D.
NJ. sibley of
Peoria.
FAMILIAR CRAFT HERE
Has Piled In and Out of keokuk for
Number of Years-Will be
Removed From the
Mississippi.

The excurion steamer Columbia
steamboats, on the upper Mississippi,
will no longer pillow the waters of the
Father of Waters After five years of
service the boat has been sold to
Capt. D. NJ. Sibley of Peoria, and viii
be taken to the Illinois river as soon
as navigation opens in the spring. The
amount paid for the Columbia by the
Peorian has not yet been made public.
Capt. Sibley is the owner of a small
excursion boat, the City of Peoria,
and evidently intends to embark in
the business on larger scale than
heretofore
The Columbia has been the propety
of the Blair line, the same company
that owns the keokuk and other
boats. and with the exception of the
side-wheeler Morning Star, was the
largest boat in Rlair's fleet. The
steamer has made her home port at
Rock Island. H., and has been used
mainly in the excursion business, al
though it has done packet service in
emergencies. She has probably taken
out as many excursions as any craft
on the upper river, and was very
popular steamer.
Captain Blair bought the Columbia
at ST. Louis five years ago, where she
was working as 2 packet. and equipped
her. for the excursion trade, remodel
ing the interior and installing a dance
floor in the forward part of the cabin
deck. The st. Louis people bought
the boat some ten years ago, but she
was too small to handle either the
freight or excursion trade out of the
Mound City. hence her sale to the
Blair interests
Whether Capt. Blair will replace the
Columbia with another boat has not
yet been announced.
