DR.. BLANCHE TELLS
OF LIFE AS SAILOR

DR.. w. H. Blancke of st. Paul's Luz
tKeran church, Davenport, last even
ing gave a lecture From Capstan to
Pulpit at the First Swedish Luther
an church, under the auspices of the
Young Peoples society. There was a
large attendance and the speaker
held the rapt attention of his audi
ence. Dr. Blancke was born in Ger
many and while still a young man
shipped as a'sailor. His experiences
as such were many and varied and his
travels took him to many foreign coun-
tries where he saw strange sights. He
tod of these experiences in an in
tensely interesting way. He also told
of his conversion to Christianity and
OF his struggles to acquire an educa-
ton and fit himself for the ministry.
DR.. Blancke was the prime mover in
the cleaning up of civic conditions in
Davenport few years ago and it was
due to his efforts largely that the mo.
raj condition of the city has improved
measurably.

Donations to The Argus Santa

there is still need for much more than

Reynolds yesterday forwarded his

and several smaller contributions
were received from farmers.

amount to about $500. This is not a

Discourse on Panama.

Excellent Supper at Parish
House Before Lecture.
BIG AUDIENCE PRESENT

Isham Randolph, noted Chicago en-

canal the Milwaukee harbor, and mem
Der Of the commission which planned
the Panama canal, entertained the
members OF Trinity Mems club and
friends with an interesting and instruc-
tive address on Panama last night at
the parish house OF Trinity church
The lecture was illustrated by beauti-
ful stereopticon views, II being gener-
ally conceded that Mr.. Randolph has a
collection OF Panama pictures that is
second 10 none. He took the photo
graphs himself and is able to tell the
history Of each one so that it really
means something TO those who see il.
The main part of his time was taken up
with an exposition of the canal, the
work being done there and scenes in
Panama, the Illustrations needing very
little comment to be understood.
HISTORY OF CANAL.
Mr. Randolph prefaced his lecture
with a brief history Of the isthmus
OF Panama and the events leading up
20 American occupation of the canal
zone. He said that Panama has played
an important part in the history of the
western hemisphere since the time the
Spanish explorer Balboa crossed il and
discovered the Pacific ocean on the
western side. When the Spanish con
querors began conveying the treas
ures Of Peru and Chilli back to Spain,
they wen. by way Of the isthmus and
this resulted in the building OF a rich
city, Panama, on the Atlantic side.
in 1871 this place was destroyed by
viratus and Do cCaneers and the ruins

eeneseo Men Organize Brotherhood.

An important meeting is in pros
pect for the men of Geneseo tomor-
rev night, which to some extent is
a result of the Laymen's Missionary
convention recently held in this city.
The men of the Methodist church of
Geueseo are to meet to organize a
brotherhood, and to launch an every
member" campaign in the church.
Rev. F. E. Shut, the pastor has invit-
ed County superintendent S. ]. Fergu.
son and Secretary r. c. Smedley, of
the Y. NJ. c. A, to address the men
on this occasion, and to aid in the
work of organization. At the time OF
the convention, the men of Geneseo
came in, about 40 strong, and caught
the enthusiasm of that great occasion,

ing to work out its teachings at home

gineers, eight Americans, among whom
was Isham Randolph. and five foreign
ers. TO decide whether or not the pro-
posed canal should be lock or sea
level affair. The president favored the
latter. The commission went to the
scene and the five foreigners and three
of the Americans decided in favor of
the sea level canal. Mr.. Randolph and
four other American engineers held
out for the lock canal and presented
minority report which was finally
adopted by the president and congress,
much to the chagrin of the foreigners.
In 1906 the work on the canal started
and in the opinion Of Mr.. Randolph,
ships will be using the waterway be-
fore 1913 has passed. This belief is
born out by photographs of the canal
as it was last March when Mr.. Ran
dolph was last there. 1t is rapidly near
ing completion.
MANY MEMBERS PRESENT.
Last nights meeting of Trinity club
was the largest for some time, Mr.
Randolph being an excellent attrac-
ton. Members were privileged to
bring a friend and many took advan-
tage of this. The result was the audi
ence numbered nearly $50. Prior 10
the lecture, the ladies served an ex-
cellent supper.

TRIP OF THE OREGON.
A French company many years ago
began the construction OF a canal
across the isthmus. but failed princi-
pally through lack of money. The
American people4ailed to see the need
for the waterway until the eventful
trip of the battleship Oregon around
the horn on its way to the scene of the
impending Spanish-American war. The
canal would have saved days of anxi-
ely on the part of millions of people
many of whom expected hourly 10 hear
that the great battleship had been way
laid and destroyed by the Spanish
while on its hazardous cruise. The
need of the canal became fully app2r-
ent a this time and after the war
plans towards building it were formu-
lated. The French company offered
its holding in Panama for s4000O,00O
and the United States government
bought them. In 1904 the United

AS a result of his alleged infatua-
ton for a 17-year-old girl, Charles
Weimer of Hillsdale, aged So, mar
ried man with three children, was yes
terday bound over to the grand jury

heard in Justice Clarence Schroeder's
court, following the arrest of the de-
PENDANT at his home in Hillsdale, by
a deputy sheriff Tuesday.
The Mercer girl, who resides in Hills
dale, secured a position as maid in the
Weimer family last February. The
head of the family, so it is said, i'm
mediately evinced a deep interest in
the comely servant and paid her mark
ed attentions.
REPUDIATES PARENTS.
Some time later the girls parents
asked the daughter to return to her
home. but loath TO repudiate her secret
attachment. she refused. An arrange.
ment was then made, whereby the girl
was to remain in the Weimer house
hold while attending school. Frequent
pleas on the part of the girls parents.
requesting her to come home fell on
deaf ears, and il was only in June when
the girl became i'll, that she would
consent to leave. She remained at her
! home for several months and then
| left for Moline to seek employment
While the parents still believed her tc
