dGtions. however. has caused this
land 90 drop from $500 an acre TO

Injunction Bars City From Build.
ing Municipal Plant-UtiI-
tiles Contract Expired.
Especial Correspondence. J


Geneseo, Ill, Aug. 26.-Geneseo
is still without a permanent fran
chise for its lighting service.
July l, the lighting contract with
the Illinois Northern Utilities com
pany and the city of Geneseo ex-t
pfred. The matter of establishing
a municipal lighting plant, which
was approved by the people here
five or six years ago, remains a
legal controversy. The temporary
injunction which was granted Sam
uel ~Goembel. restraining the city
from proceeding with the construc-
ton of a municipal lighting plant,
is still in effect. For the last four
years franchises running a year or
even few months have been
granted the company.
At the last regular meeting Of
the city council some discussion OF
the question was held. 1t is said
that Mayor Davis has been in favor
of granting the company a 10 or
Is year franchise. This proposal
has met with some opposition by
various aldermen. Mayor Davis is
out of the city for a period OF a
few weeks No action will be taken
until his return. 1t appears to be
the sentiment of a great number OF
Geneseo'S residents who have been
interviewed on this matter that
something should be done at once.

Aiedo. Aug. 26.-What was esti-
mated to be the largest crowd that

GEORGIA CASE
IS REMARKABLE
Really Sounds Incredible But Wen
known Merchant Testifies
to Truth.

Writing from Maxeys, Ga. A. J.
Gillen, proprietor of a large de-
partment store at that place, says:
Il have a customer here who was
in bed for three years and did not
go to a meal at any time. She had
five physicians and they gave her
out One bottle of Tanlac got her
up, on the second bottle she com
menced keeping house and on the
third she did all the cooking and
housework for a family of eight"
This sounds really incredible, but
1t comes unsolicited from a highly
creditable source and is copied
verbatim from the letter.
Tanlac is sold in Rock Island by
SchlegePs drug store and leading
druggists everywhere-- (Adver-
