Yesterday' reat Victory at Darea Vrt la whiea Cav ara waa aa Kaay WlaarrBIHarr l'k( Haada. Yesterday at Davenport occurred an event in tbe sporting community of the three cities. It was a race of eighty seven and a half yi.rds between John Cowden, the Rock I aland sprinter, and Thomas Robinson, a professional, late of Kansas City, but nov of Moline, and on whom the sports of c ur eastern suburb staked their all that 1 e could outrun the celebrated Rock Island boy. Fully 8,003 people were present; mostly all from Rock Island and the ambitious town on our east. The contest accurred on tbe race course in Central Park the old Scott county fair grounds. Tbe distance of tbe race was agreed uon as eighty-seven and a half yards as a c tn promise, Cowden being a one hundred yard runner, and Robinson a seventy-five yard runner. The stakes were f 150 a side. The signal to start was to be a pistol phot. Wm, Olson, of Rock Island, was appointed referee and Dennis a'cEnary, of Moline, stake holder. The betting, prior to the race, was free and active. The enthusi asm over Cowdea wa as marked before the contest as it was hen he had become victorious, and the Rock Island represen tatives pushed the Moline enthusiasts, who were for anything to beat Rock Isl and, clear to the wull. They emptied their pocket books ard then put up their watches, scarf pins, r ngs and everything they possessed except their clothing, on Cowden, and would have put them up had Moline accepted. As an accom plished sport would be apt to put it: All the Moline sport time down to Mall. But when the race v over bud all lot their stuff. Over $3,000 and fo ir different watches and other articles ch tnged hands on the result of the contest, all coming to Rock Island, and some sing e winnings were as high as 300 and f 503. At the signal Cowden made a remarka ble leap of fourteen feet and then ran away from his opponent like a deer, win ning by twelve feet. Robinson became discoursged when he saw the lightning like speed of tbe Rock Island fleet foot and slacked up. Tbe time was not par ticularly fasl.either.aid Cowden declared afterward that he could have done much better had he been pushed to the test. After the race Robinson attempted to dispute the fairness of Cowden's spurt at the outset, but tbe referee and starter both declared it perfectly fair. Robinson attempted to bluff bj offering to wager 500 that he could heat Cowden in another race. The amount was promptly covered, and if the Moline man means business the race wili take place in that city some evening th s week. diamon DUST. The Davenports defeated the Spring' fields at the latter city Saturday by a score of 4 to 1, with Rbines in the box Sand were defeated yesterday 12 to 1 with Fanning as the pitcher.

THE BARBER BUSINESS; The Mallae Maaaay Teat Caae Fail A Little Liw aa the Mabjeet, The barber case in Moline was decided by the jury in favor of the defendant late Saturday afternoon. Leopold, the bar ber, proved that be had a box in his shop Sunday, into which the money for shav ing waa dropped, which the barber gave to a poor family, thereby bringing him under the charity clause of the stat ute, which says "whoever disturbs the peace and good order of society by labor (work of necessity and charity except ed) or by amusement or diverson on Sun day, shall be fined," etc. This is Sec. 317. Starr & Curtis statutes. Page 834, and not the section as quoted by the Union of yesterday in reference to "disturbing peace of family," on which are two whol ly different sections of the statutes. The latter was not referred to or thought' of in the trial. As to the case of Richmond ys Moore, 107, 111., deciding the case, the question of labor or keeping open shops on the Sabbath was not in issue, but the enforcement contract made on Sunday. The leading and only case in this state on the subject of labor on the Sabbath is "McPherson vs Village of Chebanse," tried in Iroquois county, affirmed in the second district of appellate court, by Judges Lacy and Pleasants and upon ap peal to tbe supreme court, was affirmed in the following language: Vol. 114. Page 51 We do not admit tbat tbe keeping open of stores in a vil lage on Sunday ia allowable under the statute; that it would not disturb tbe peace and good order of society. Sun day, as it is observed by common usage, ia not only set apart as a day of rest from labor but it is devoted to religious rest. The consecration of the day to its wonted manner of observance is a blessing to mankind. Besides tbe recuperative ef fects referred to it has its other beneficent use. It affords opportunity for moral, intellectual and social culture. It is promotive of good habits, and tends to improve the manners of men. It is civ ilizing and refining in ail its influences. Whatever detracts from the observance of tbe day as it is customarily obsetved is not to be countenanced. Tbe keep ing open by persona of their places of business in a community on Sunday for the exercise of the business of their ordinary calling is a public and serious interference with the observance of tbe day ia its accustomed mode of observance. It is obstructive of the purpose for which the day is set apart; it is offensive to tbe moral sense of tbe community; it disturbs the peace of society in its open interference with tbe peace and quiet of a day devoted as a day of rest, and for religious worship. It disturbs tbe good order of society, publicly and flauntingly and in defiance of public sentiment desecrating a day and inviting others to its desecration, set apart for purposes of the highest well being of human society, etc. If the 107th Illinois settled the case why did not either of those courts refer to the case in their opinions? It was simply because the former case was not in point on tbe principle of labor, but was as to mere business, which no one claims the Illinois statutes prohibits at this day. PUSHING THE PAVEMENT. .4 ew aaaalsnanent of Hrirk and - Carbine Rerrlvrd Prazreaa f the Wark. Saturday evening the first lot of Bar dolph brick for the pavement of tbe Street Car company's portion of Second avenue gave out, when the double tracks and intervening space bet ween, two thirds of the way to Nineteenth had been com pleted. Between Saturday night and this morning, however, eight more car loads of Bardolph brick arrived, also six of Galesburgand four of curbing, so that work can now proceed right along without Interruption, as more will be constantly arriving. This morning tbe work of laying tbe eighteen inches outside the car tracks to be paved by the company, was commenced and the first Galesburg brick was also laid. Supt. Nevins has found it necessary to put up signs forbidding people not em ployed from entering the district tbat is being torn up or from handling the pav ing brick. The work is progressing very rapidly and very satisfactorily to every body. The Bardolph brick which the street car company is using seems to be by great odds the favorite with all who have examined tbe two kinds. It is shown by test, too, to hold its own with uny others. Previous to the adoption of any particu lar kind by the council, AM. Hampton made a test, which, like the one mede by Mr. Burgower with Galesburg brick and noted Saturday, proved very satisfactory, lie took half a brick of the Bardolph and half a brick . of. tbe Bloomington and soaked them seven hours. At tbe end of tbat time the Bloomington brick had gained five and a half ounces and the Bardolpn brick one ounce. Fallen Polata. A blind beggar' was found three miles south of Milan Saturday, lying in the woods and totally helpless. lie was brought in to tbe police station.

City front pedestrians were edified recent ly by tbe eloquence of the first Chinese evan gelist who has made hit appearance in that locality. He announced his name as Ah Qui He did not claim any connection with either the Salvation Army or the Holiness band. "Ten years ago I was a very bad man," said he. "What you call highbinders here that's what I waa in Canton. I worked for a big mandarin fifteen years. During that time I killed fifty-one people for money. Twenty of them were women. I will tell you how I was converted. My master set his eyes on a Christian Chinese girl, but could not get her, so I waa sent to kill her. I waa to re ceive $10 for the act I found her alone in the house one night, and on her refusal to ac company me to my master I told her she must die. She asked time to pray. I waa so af fected that the knife dropped from my hand, and that incident led me to Christianity. I grew to lova her, and she became my wife The preacher at whose house she lived mar ried us. "One night we were seized and carried to the bouse of my former master. He ordered me to murder her and I refused to do it. Then he said that another would perform tbat office and that I a hi 1.1 end my days by hari-kari. His order was obeyed in one case. They disrobed my wife and three men bound her, while another cut off limb after limb. She prayed for them while they were doing this as loug as she bad breath in her body." At this point Qui leaped into the air and shrieked three unearthly yells, while the crowd who had listened to the weii-d story stood aghast with suppressed excitement. He mated to tie insane for at least a niiuute. Then, wiping his eyes, ho exclaimed: "Tbe next day I escaiied, and here I am." The exhortation which followed lasted for at least twenty niintitas, and was intensely earnest. Ho said tlmt be projwsed to go through this land and tell the story of his conversion to show tbo power of grace. San Fraucisco Examiner. The Letter Wan Laos; la Coming. Just like a man I Nov. M, 13U4, Mrs. Hodges, of St. Louis, mailed a letter to her husband, who was with Sherman's army. On reaching his regiment the letter was given to Capt. I'.ixby, to lie delivered to Mr. Ilodes. The captain naturally put it in his pocket. Two weeks ago he found it in the same ixx-kct of the same coat, yellow and dingy with twenty-five years' incarceration, but otherwise all light. He immediately mailed it, and Mr. Undoes received it in St. Louis, the city from which it originally started. The news was a little old, but tbe family enjoyed reading it. Washington Post.
