The preliminary hearing of John Allsopp, charged with assault with intent to commit murder, the complaining wit ness being W. J. Mumper, was held yesterday before Police Magistrate Roddewig.

Monday afternoon Mayor Scott and City Engineer Murray made an in spection of the sewers in the west end. proceeding down the river bank front Harrison street to Cook's point. Living within 50 feet of the Mar- gaged them in conversation. He also talked with their mother and in com menting on them the mayor said to day: "I have never in my life seen a brighter and healthier lot of chil dren than these. Their mother tells me they have been living at their present location for 10 years and that they have not spent $23 in doctor bins for the past 21 years. That does not look so bad for the Marquette street sewer, does it? While in the past there has been considerable complaint in regard to the odor aris ing from the various west end sewers, the neatest complaint has come from the Marquette street sewer. Judging from the healthy condition of the above family. Mayor Scott is inclin ed to believe the reports about its unhe ilthy condition must have been exaggerated to some extent. Gets Big Contract.

Since 1847, knowledge and experience in making and ma turing have made it the quality leader. There's a green government stamp over the cork on each bottle of W. H. McBrayer's 44. Bottled in Bond ' This little stamp means much. But the name Cedar Brook means even more. The government stamp means government supervision from the raw grain to the finished product. Uncle Sam's require ment that the whisky be pure, straight, 100 proof, full measure and aged at least four years has been complied with. But Cedar Brook is all this and more. Other whiskies, as well, pass this examination, yet there is no whisky that can come up to the Cedar Brook test. Uncle Sam's requirements are only part of the .Cedar Brook test. The name Cedar Brook guaran tees not only that every govern ment requirement has been com plied with, but guarantees quality supreme, a wonderful flavor and smoothness, a delicacy and a rich ness both incomparable. It must be aged six. usually eight years or over instead of governmental four. The choicest grains and purest spring water are aged in charred oaken casks. At all places where good liquor is sold. W.

HIGH JOAN Money in Cherries The following extract from a news item In the Manistee Times, Manistee, Mich., shows the profits to be made from good fruit land: "The best cherry season in the history of this district is drawing to a close and by next week the picking and shipping practically will be concluded." This season has been different from last in several respects. In the lirst place the growers have had better accommodations than ever before. Next season will be even better, the Fere Marquette is considering putting on a special fruit train, while the Northern Michigan company (a boat line to Chicago) will reduce the time considerably and the C & R. I. railway Is also ' casting envious glances at the heavy fruit business. Not only has the service been better and the freight rates less but an entirely new market has been opened. Heretofore, the cherries have gone only to Chicago, but being introduced in De troit, a big demand arose and several car loads were sent there. Immediately the Chicago price shot up 20c a crate. A Grand Rapids firm also had something like $5,000 to add to the growers returns. This concern (came to buy 10,000 cases. Finding quality and color all that could be desired it began paying a premium, forcing others to do the same. Several growers have received returns of $600.00 an acre from their orchards and a man with five acres of cherries is independent. Apples will come on in about two weeks and the prospects are excellent, running from 75 per cent on some varieties up to 100 per cent on others with a general average of about 90 per cent. In dications as to price are also good. A large number of people from Rock Island and vicinity have visited and purchased land in this distrjet this season. The major ity are buying for future homes and the remainder believe it the best investment they ever made. . The unimproved land can be bought for $8 to $15 per acre and some of it is within three miles of Manistee, a city of 20,000. We give terms as low as $10 down and $5 per month on each 40 acre tract and in case of death before land is paid for we deed it to your heirs without farther payments, ' so . you even make money by dying. r . . , We will run a special excursion from Rock Island, Friday,' Aug. 20, and will make a rate of $12 for the round trip.
