Prof. Rocco Grello and his band open
the festivities with a band concert at
noon.
The shows with their new fronts
and all canvass just from the makers,
looked clean and inviting and those
who went into the shows pronounced
them all good. The carnival associa-
ton and charity are to receive tidy
sum from Mr.. Sheesley in considera-
ton for his privileges, but were most
imperative that only clean shows were
to be permitted, consequently a ban
will be placed upon all not strictly in
keeping with the wish of the men who
have the carnival affairs in charge.
Mr.. Sheesley has always enjoyed
the distinction of carrying clean
shows, and those which need not ex-
clude the presence of ladies or chill
dren, and this principle viii be most
strictly adhered to.
The big autodrome which was
wrecked by the strong winds of a
week ago, was the only thing missing,
but Mr.. HaGer has had company of
men repairing the fracture and it viii
be in position tomorrow or as soon as
the riders have chance to test its
stability.
The trained wild animal arena, of
course, is the show which creates the
most wonder as all have seen the ami
mails when not in action and have a
curiosity to see what they can do
when not in repose, hence this fea-
ture was literally patronized. The
Garden of Allah comes next with all
its strange people and sights. The '49
miners camp held a goodly share of
patronage with its many dancing COW
girls and boys from the frontier. The
| Old Plantation was good and Little
Olga played most beautifully upon a
lot of strange looking instruments.
The Tango Girls are good looking
lot and can sing and dance to the
taste of the most critical.

COLLEGE GYM TO
Be ERECTED NOW
Board Awards Contracts
for Building Which Is to Be
Ready Tor Use Next Fall.

Crissman &, Co. of Moline was yes
terday awarded the contract for the
erection of the new gymnasium at Au-
gustana college by the board of direc-
tors in annual session. Brissman &
Co. offered bid of $50 $50 which was
$1,000 smaller than any of the nine
other bids, which ranged even as high
as $4,000. The plumbing contract
was let to Channon & Dufva of Rock
Island at S555. Contracts set a five
month limit for the completion OF the
building, so the new structure, which
will be located Immediately back of the
site of the present gym, will be ready
for use the first of October.
Some members of the board spoke
of poStponing the erection of the
building until next year, but the ma
jority favored the immediate construc-
ton. Another point of interest was
the adoption of the motion TO COM
plete the galleries in the gymnasium
so that the large floor will be ready
for immediate use as an auditorium, a
novel scheme which was incorporated
in the original plans. The lecture hall
thus formed will furnish seating
room for $500 people and will be a
great investment for the college. A
stage will also be erected at one end
of the gym.

properly regard it as an alley. The
wishes OF the property holders on the
street affected, however, should, the
speaker said, be ascertained
and upon the crystalized SEN
timent of the majority should be
based such action as might be taken.
Assistant Postmaster o. P. Olson,
who followed, sustained the argu
ments advanced by the postmaster, and
during the discussion called attention
to the fact that number OF years ago,
the property holders and residents on
Fourteenth and -a-half street had pc
titioned the council to take them out
of the half class and give their
street a full grown designation.
The Opposition.
W. n. Phillips. who spoke first for
the property holders, said there are
30 900 people in Rock Island who know
where h-and-a-half street is,
they know its Importance, and what it
amounts to, and they do not care what
the outside people think OF 1t from its
name, The property holders and resi-
dents of the street, Mr.. Phillips said,
are satisfied with it as it is, and they
want no change in the name.

lived in Rock Island but short time,
and had got used Is The name Four

Iieyed the people generally had, and
that to change its name would entail

Arthur R. Talbot led an argument

name of Glenhurst court, the public

cjderable expense given a class to.
Other residents of the court, both lad
les and gentlemen, took the same

curse the commission took would
not affect them.

Gives Pen Picture of Hindenburg.

Berlin.-Professor Heinrich Cauer, a
we'll know sculptor, who has been en-
gagged for some time on a bust of Hin
denburg, contributes to the Bauseitung
pen picture of the popular military
leader.
"Hindenburg's entire figure" he
writes, from the crown of his head
to the soles of his feet, measures a
trifie over six feet He holds himself
with soldierly erectness, but his head
is usually bent forward, a habit which
one always notices in big men accus-
toned to speak with those of lesser
stature. He gives you the impression
OF a knight in armor. His deep voice.
and his remarks, often whimsical. but
never injurious or ironical, are full OF
kindness and friendliness.
If you look at Hindenburg closely
you will notice a furrow over the
nose drawn between the swellings of
the brow. This furrow has been gray-
en- by the gigantic responsibilities of
the present war. You get the impress
sion of strain and even suffering, an
impression somehow heightened by
the yellow color of the swim.
The field marshal is thin. Photo
graphs had led me to expect a fat
man. But he is actually thin, and this
thinness increases the impression OF
energy in the face and is certainly
preferable from the artists point of
view"

intelligence. including Snyder, the ele-

only elephant carrying its trainer on
