L. S. McCABE.

Rock island can ill AFFORD to lose
such man as J.. S. McCabe. He has
been one of those WHO has helped
make the city what it is and it viii be
hard to ind anyone TO take up the
work IN The mercantile life of Rock Is
land where he has left off.
Few perhaps no other one man.
nave been as closely identified with the
growth Of the city ia commercial I'M
portance as Mr.. McCabe has been.
When he came here many years ago he
found a very small city. He began
business in a small way and with little
capital BY peFsisunR in the face Of
llscouragements, by square dealing.
BY exercise Of innate business ahil-
ity and by the use Of effective means OF
publicity he made his business grow
even more rapidly than the community
II which IL was located.
While Rock Island advanced from
An oyergrown village into a modern
city, the little, one-room McCabe store
hranched out until it had become one
Of the largest department emporiuns
in the state
The success that he made is the best
monument to MI McCabe. at the same
time, he found time to become inter-
ested in other directions. He always
was found doing his full share in what
ever tended for the civic betterment OF
the city. He was a liberal contributor
10 many philanthropies and he gave to
such work as much Of his time as be
could spare.
He took a prominent part in the
physical upbuilding Of the business
district. the big store building on
Third avenue, the Safety building and
the Colonial hotel being the leading
landmarks he leaves. while his own
business building on Third avenue is
smother evidence OF his confidence In
Rock Island
With all his work he found time for
gecreation and it was to 6nd diversion
that be turned 10 farming. For many
Years he was Interested heavily IN aRri-
cultural enterprises IN Illinois an6
owa, He was especially proud o. the
herds Of fine cattle which were bred
ader his direction.
But It was in his personal relations /
that we find the true test Of the man.
He was wise and vet iudulgeut as nus
band ana father and he was held n
rhe warmest affection by those whom
be employed
No Rock Island man who has passed I
away in recent years will be more
deeply mearned than l. $. McCabe.
