Runaway on Providence Street.

An exciting runaway took place on Providence street shortly after twelve o'clock Tuesday. The horse of a Greek ice cream peddler became frightened and bolted down Providence street at a furious pace, and in turn ing the corner into Fourth avenue the cart overturned throwing the driver out. The man struck the curb with considerable force landing on his shoulder and face. He was painfully bruised and shaken up. A doctor was called and cared for the man, who later was taken to his home in Nor Wich. The horse ran a short distance after the accident and stopped. The horse and wagon were taken ito Grants stable and cared for, the driver returning later in the day for his out fit

BIG EIGHT CONTEST
TO BE HELD TONIGHT

One Of the best girls Big Eight
declamatory contests ever held will
take place tonight at s o'clock at the
Rock Island high school, Nine schools
will be represented in this contest
Davenport, Moline, Canton, Galesburg,
kewanee, Princeton, Monmouth, Gen.
eseo and Rock Island-and every
school is expected to send represen-
tative to be proud of.
One feature of the contest tonight
will be the informal reception imme-
diately after the contest. All are in
vited to attend. A light luncheon will
be served, and Rock Island will do
her best to be a hospitable hostess to
the outside contestants. Prospects Of
the attendance at the contest are very
promising, and it was announced this
morning that the better part of the
rooms capacity will be filled, accord
ing to the receipts. However there is
still room for a goodly number and
the sale of tickets is being pushed
hard.
Rock Island will be represented at
the contest tonight by Miss Aline Jane

or her? Did it ever occur to them that
this world was not made exclusively
for the elite of society, but that there
is whole lot of common people" who
also have a few rights which they
should not need to beg to have respect
ed? Could not those favored persons
exercise little tolerance, especially
when the tolerance asked for, as in
this case, is so infiniteSimal?
The most astonishing thing Of all
was that this petition came from the
Ministerial union. Surely some mem
bers of that union have occasionally
seen, possibly preached upon, the text,
In lowliness of mind let each esteem
other better than themselves. Look
not every man on his own things. but
every man also on the things of Others"
If this text teaches anything it teaches
tolerance and the duty of remembering
that we are not the only ones that have
some rights, but that others also, even
the lowliest, have some rights which
they may ask to have respected How
would it be, once in a while, to display
something of an evangelical spirit
Possibly their influence would 90 a

land should have a similar one. In
stead OF following the example of 9TH
ers, Rock Island might we'll set an ex-
ample of a more common sense and
less paternalistic city government.
The writer has lived a good many
years in Rock Island and has frequent
ly had occasion to use the street cars,
perhaps not every day, but surely every
week, and often many times day, and
the conclusion he has come to in the
matter is that the street cars of Rock
Island, or the tri-cities, are remarkably
free from tobacco smoke, compared to,
for example, those of Chicago. Occa-
sionally he has had TO share a seat
with someone whose breath was very
offensive from eating onions, but it
never entered his mind to ask for a
city ordinance forbidding persons who
eat onions to use the street cars. Not
for years has he seen anyone sit down
in seat with lighted cigar, and when
he last saw it, request from the con-
ductor was sufficient to end the mat
ter. Now, if this request for a city
ordinance had come from one of the
motormen it would have seemed very
reasonable. They have to stand in the
smoke-filled vestibule-not for whole
days but possibly for hours at time
and II they themselves are not smok-
ers they certainly have reason to COM
plain. But the complaint comes from
those who once in very great while
have to endure Whit of smoke when
passing through the vestibule of the
car. Did it ever occur to those per-
sons that the smoke these men in
dulge In out there in the vestibule pos
sibly is one of the very few enjoy
ments they have in life, while the
fault finder cannot find time enough

Smoking on Street Cars,

Rock Island. H., Feb. 17.-Editor
Argus; Permit me to say few words
in regard to the proposed ordinance
prohibiting smoking in the street cars
of the tri-cities. l shall not defend the
habit, in fact, l would not object to
see it eliminated, but l doubt the wis
dom of employing such drastic means
as adding one more law, or ordinance,
TO the ones we already have, another
club to hold over the heads of those
whose department doesn't come quite
up to the standard set by the elite Of
society. There are other ways of dis
couraging the habit less vigorous and
therefore in the end more effective.
The fact that other cities have such an
ordinance is no reason why Rock Is

Any druggist can supply you with xen1o,
which generally overcomes all skin dis
eases. Acne, eczema, itch, pimples,
rashes, black heads in most cases give
way to zemo. Frequently. minor blem-

All animals, hens included, have pc

suits in working with them we must
take this fact into consideration. Not
only is 1t true that each class of ami
mails has its peculiarities. but individ-
uals in the same class have their dis
tinctive traits. To illustrate this take
for example two horses. One is a
heavy work horse, and when you speak
to him he is quite as willing and
