Woodmen Matinc Chips Fly, Fall
Where They Will.
Pointed. "Vet Conservative denota
tions Adopted by Yenterdmy'a Con
ventlon." Kdltor Baatian Mabatltted
to aTonuh Ordeal.
Yesterday's report of the proceedings
of tbe Modern Woodmen convention
closed will the address of Dr. P. L. Mc
tiinnie, wh'.ca occupied an hour and a
half of tb.3 afternoon session. F. W.
Bastian, pi Wisher of the Echo, the offl
cial organ of the order, was present and
asked permission to reply to Dr. McKin-
nie, and the convention giving unanimous
consent, he mounted the stage and ridi
culed the accusations both as to fraud in
tbe order and the future plans of the
head consul and head officers to break the
order or rope it into the Sovereign camp.
At the conclusion of Neighbor Baslian'a
remarks, ht was submitted to a lively
cross firing, during which he confessed
that the prise ut meeting was an impor
tant one of representative Woodmen and
any action that might be taken was enti
tled to respectful consideration bv the
head camp tnd to publication in tbe Echo
as such. He was also p'ied with earch
ini quesliors as to ftilure on bis part to
publish from time to time unbiased
and unprejudiced reports of all mat
ters pertaining to the afTiirs of the
order, the use of mitter such as
only favored Root's side, and tbe ex
clusion of things that were of the
most vital iaterest to Woodmen, as for
instance the letters of the state officers of
Illinois, bearing on the recent discover
ies of fraud in the head camp. Iu a wont
Mr. B stian got into bot water before be
was aware of where he was treading and
the multitu le of scorching questions
from men of determination and standing
n the order, drove him completely into
a corner wh re he could simply grin and
bear it and this he did quite gracefully.
Ele finally got so muddled that be acually
confessed tlmt bad honest men had influ
ence with the control of the or
der and with its official organ
tbe reports of the state officers of Illinois
would have leen published and even tbe
declaration on his part that he was being
subjected to a "d good cross exami
nation such f.s would drive most men's
thoughts and recollections out of their
beads." did not excuse him in the eyes of
the convention, Bnd at least twenty-fl?e
Woodmen got w backs at bim. He was
accustd by at many as fifty of failing to
send out the number of eop'es of the
Ee7to subscribed for. and when one camp
would report that its members had not
been receiving its dues, "here too," would
be the simultaneous response in a dozen
I i Cerent corners of tbe house, until at last
Bastian becarte beaildered and abrupt
ly left tbe stage with tbe excuse that be
'didn't care to take any more of the con
vention a turn:.
The commi'.tee on
RESOLUTIONS
having appeared and the convention be-
ng anxious to henr it? report, the Fulton
neighbor was excused from further humil
iation. Chapman J. L. Haas, of the com
mittee, read tie report as follows:
We, the rt presentatives of about 200
camps of the Modern Woodmen of Amer
ica, comprising delegations from tbe
states of Illirois, Iowa, Michigan, Wis
consin and Nebraska, having only an ad-
visory power, resolve as follows:
1. We rtnew our confidence in tbe
association of tbe Modern Woodmen of
America, which now comprises about
1.40O camps ith a membership of about
4U.0()0pand be ieve that it offers to the pub
lic tbe best and cheapest plan of mutual
nsurance yet levised. and it is our sole
purpose to do all in our power to preserve
it from tbe evils that now threaten it, and
we believe that by wise counsel and
prompt action the order will be soon
started upon a new era of prosperity and
growth.
'2. That hereas there are now pend
ing in the cinnit court of tbe county of
Whiteside in tbe state of Illinois against
some or the head olllcers ot our order,
grave charge of fraud and improper
msnagement, -ind that owing to delay or
technical obstructions on the part of these
officers in answering said charges, the
welfare of the order is imerilled.it is our
wish that said charges be vigorously
pushed to as early a termination as possi
ble. 3. That bile we withhold any for
mal expression of opinion as to the guilt
or innocence c f these parties until the
proper tribunal has passed upon the mut
ter we hereby commend Attorney General
Hunt and Au Itnr Pavey for the fidelity
they have shown in giving tbe matter a
full and fair investigation, and all others
for their effort i to preserve tbe good name
of our order.
4 That v;e advise all tbe camps to
send represettalivea to the head camp
called to meet at Des Moinen, Iowa, on
the 12th day of August, 1890, antl we
believe that by a full attendance such
action will be secured as shall place our
order on a so md footing and relieve us
from the trouHes that now embarrass us.
5. That we fayor such legislation as
will establish ttate jurisdiction, so that a
state camD in each state snail nave local
control of its own affairs, such as audit
ing deuth clait is, deciding tbe manner of
selecting its delegates to a head camp of
all the stales, which head camp shall
have general supervision over the state
camps. We no not, nowever, iavor any
release of our present cnarier or any
change in the present manner of making
assessments so that tbe states with small
membership si all havo no undue burden
to bear, each state to have a separate
jurisdiction as above provided whenever
it becomes strong enougu io jusmj n.
'6. That we favor the payment by the
different camps of tbe double assess
ments known as Nob. 5 and 6. we not
only believe that this double assess
ment is necessary, but we are fearful that
other double assessments will become
necessary.
"7. It is our belief that there is too
much oower vested in the head consul
and the executive council by the laws of
our order and we favor such changes In
the same as will restore this power to the
membership of tbe order to be exercised
through the head camp.
8. Jiuolvet', That it is tbe sense of
this meeting tl at the organization of tbe
so-called sovereign camp or the world
Modern Wood nen of America at Qmaha
Neb as a separate and. distinct order
from the,Modern Woodmen of America
but borrowing our ritual plan and virtu
ally our name, is without warrant and a
trespass upon the rights and good of our
order and is hereby condemned by us.
The benefit of our order can be extended
by ourselves and we are satisfied that we
i'can secure head officers who will protect
us."
'Considerable discussion followed as to
certain sections of the resolutions, which,
after the defeat of several amendments,
were adopted as a whole.
Neighbor Mammon made an address on
the fundamental laws of the order which
he had learned were not satisfactory, and
it would therefore be incumbent upon the
head camp at its next meeting to adopt
new by-laws and he moved therefore that
a committee be appointed to carefully re
vise the laws and report with rccommen
dations at the next meeting of the head
camp. The suggestion that the commits
tee be composed of five was added and
the motion carried. Mr. Mammon was
appointed chairman, the chair withhold
ing the names of the other members for
a future time.
On motion a committee of three was
appointed to prepare a circular outlining
the proceedings of this convention and
mail it to all the camps in the grand juris
diction. Tbe chair appointed Neighbors
Northcott, Hampton and Uawes.
An assessment of $1 from each camp
present was ordered to be made by the
secretary collectable at once.and the same
being taken up, was found to amount to
107.
A resolution was offered and adopted
recommending that the Echo be discontin
ued as the official organ of tbe order.and a
number of superfluous resolutions were
rejected. Tbacks were extended by reso
lution to the camps of Rock Island
county for hospitality in the entertain
ment of the visiting neighbors, and to
the chairman and secretary of the con
vention. The chair announced as the committee
on laws heretofore provided for, E. Mam
mon, Bloomington, III ; Dr. P. L. Mc-
Kinnie. Evanston, III; Dr. Watson, Lan
sing, Mich.; W. Li. Kellogg, Muscatine,
Iowa, and F. B. Baker, Wayne, Neb.
ROOT DID'NT COME.
Tbe committee authorized to telegraph
Head Consul J. C. Root inviting his
presence at 9 o clock last evening, re
ported that it had done so, and requested
an aniwer, but had received none, and
the indications were that Mr. Root would
not respond. The convention thereupon
decided to hold no evening session.
Dr. McKinnie stated that in view of
the news from Denver that camps were
abandoning their charters by reason of
the Sovereign camp movement, a circular
should be sent to such camps urging loy
alty to tbe Illinois charter, and he sug
gested the appointment ot a committee of
live with that object. A substitute was
adopted devolving the duties outlined on
the circular committee previously ap
pointed. The secretary was instructed
to furnish copies of tl'e proceedings of
tbe convention to the Maul antl Wedge
and the Echo, and the c invention ad
journed. NEW BUSINESS BLOCK.
And a Ww Hranrh of Mercantile Pur-
Halt Aaaurrd at Once.
A transaction occurred this morning
which promises to give Rock Island not
only a new and solid business block, but
a new business bouse second to none in
tbe state and superior to any in the three
cities. Mr. M. G. Mills, who recently
leased the Dimick property on the north
side of Second avenue between Seven
tecnth and Eighteenth streets for a peri
od of ninety-nine years, turned the lease
over to Mr. E. I. Leveon f r tbe samj
engtb of time, and as a consequence a
handsome brick building of entirely mod
ern design with dimensions of 140 by 40
feet will rise on the site, Mr. Leveen be-
ng one of the proprietors of the famous
Liverpool Sc. London Clothing company,
which now has large and flourishing
stores in most of the larger cities
throughout the Uuited States.
The building will be pushed to com
pletion as rapidly as possible, Mr. Leveen
hoping to occupy it by the rnulJle of Oc
tober, when it will be slocked through
out with a lincof men's clothing, such as
has never been brought to this section be
fore. The company has tbe reputation
of owning the largest retail houses in the
country, and the one to be established in
Rock Island will be on a par with lho?e
conducted elsewhere. So that by 1 lie
transaction Rock Island will not only
secure an elegant new block, but a val
uable and much appreciated acquisition
to its business pursuits, both of which
will be welcomed by the entire commun
ity. Inhawalta Klxn.
The most interesting and entertaining
lecture Rock Island has had in many a
day was delivered in the Central Presby
terian church by tbe young Japanese stu
dent, Mr. Eizo last evening. Mr. Kizo
is but twenty-one years of age, and
though the years upon his shoulders are
few, his knowledge of scientific and phil
osophical subjects is astonishing. His
lecture was of a general nature, but re
lated chiefly to educational matters in his
native land. It was indeed an eye open
er, for one could scarcely believe that tbe
people with whom Commodore Perry
made his famous treaty, in the compara
tively few years that has elapsed since
then, could have reached a civilization
scarcely second to our own. But before
the audience was a living illustration of
that very fact. He told his audience
that in matters of improvement you
could find nothing in the golden city of
San Francisco that could not be found in
Tokio electric light, telephone, tele
graph and 5,000 miles of railroad; but in
habits his people were not bo far ad
vanced as Americans. For example.
their men had not as yet learned to hold
in their mouth an enormous quid of to
bacco,nor to cover floors with excretions
of saliva, nor had the ladies learned to
chew gum either in private or in public
He gave an interesting account of the
branches pursued in their institutions of
learning, showing that in scientific and
phylosophical branches they were on
par with oar own in fact. using the Jap
anese translations of the very same text
books, and to that in matter of technical
mathematics they were even more tboi
ough than our own.

A few days ago a Chicago bicyclist
named Wallace, came to Rock Island to
visit. He brought bis wheel with him
and put up at Mrs. Barnes' boarding
house on First avenue and Thirteenth
street. Wednesday he visited the watch
tower in company with Johnny St.Claire,
and while tbere the two became separated
and the latter came home alone. Since
then no trace of the Chicago man has
been found and his friends here are very
apprehensive as to bis whereabouts.

A horse belonging to Albert Seitz, of
Preemption, was attacked with hydro
phobia the other day. It is supposed that
the animal was bitten by a dog. Mr.
Seitz was afraid to approach tbe animal,
so wildly did it act, biting and snapping
at everything within reach, and when
the doctor arrived it was with difficulty
that a rope was placed over its bead and
the horse securely fastened. Though it
was a valuable black mare, tbe doctor
said that the case was incurable, and af
ter three days' suffering it was shot. A
case of this kind is of rare occurrence.

8peakingthis morning of the prospects
for leasing Harper's theatre, Mr. T. R.
Harper said: ''The theatre will probably
be closed tbe coming season; it will be
unless it is leased very soon, as Mr. Man's
lease is void and of no effect, he having
failed to comply with the conditions of
tbe contract. If the right man, however,
applies, we will lease it to bim, and carry
nut all our plans for its improvement in
the meantime, but we will not let anyone
have it who does not agree to run it in
the interests of the city and the theatre
sroing public." What a pity that Rock
Island should be dependent upon one
theatre. A syndicate should be formed,
and another erected.

comfort as an ordinary dress-waist, it
will give the same elegance of contour
as the heaviest boned corset in the

that they give support to the back and
