The ceitificates of promotion were then pr?sented by Dr. George E. Barth, president of the board, who said: My Young Friends: To me the sub ject of ed jcation is, and always has been, a most important one, and I rejoice with you that the national sentiment strength ens in favor of our public schools. I feci justly proud of our Rock Island scheols; ihc'V have furnished you advantages sec ord to no other. When I say this of our schools in general I would errphasizs to you the hope that you will all find it pos sible to know for yourselves the benefit of an education, take the next best step higher, and enter upon and complete the high school course. The school board is pleased to know that you have been faithful iu vour work in the Echool room thus far. The exer cises of this afternoon are proof of this. Continue to be faithful, true and earnest, &nd success will await you from step to step. And now with the assurance of our best wishes for your future, and as an in centive for 6till greater tCorts on your part, I am authorized by the board of ed ucation to present to you these certifl. cates of promotion to the High school. The Jeat is OfT. According to the Dispatch the eastern promoters of the syndicate that was to purchase the two plaw companies and the Deere & Mansur Co., of Moline, left for the east Tuesday night, and the deal is now declared off. It is understood that the failure to purchase was due to the fact that at this season the large in vestors are away from the cities and it is difficult to reach them. It was the de sire of the eastern promoters to bold the option till fall, but the companies did not deem it wise to be in the position of be ing on tbe market indefinitely. It is not improbable that negotiations may be re newed in tbe fa'l. bat only the coming of t.at time will enable any one to tell certainly. Ke Kavera Desired. At a meeting of tbe graduating class of tbe High school it was decided that no favors would be Jaccepted at the com mencement exercises, Friday evening, June 5. Pkesidknt of Class. THE ABGUSs.TTTmKnAv, JUNE,4 ,1S91 WARMING UP AGAIN. "re Vpps, BoA wtliatloIl 0ver m !tet-Backley ts. Fitzr,bbons. They are at it again-the upper end farmers-over the Canoe creek drainage waterway. The case of P. H. Buckley versus John Fitzgibbons will be heard in Justice Hawes' court tomorrow. It is ft rather pecu'iar case, and somewhat re sembles the celebrated McEairj Canoe creek litigation of a few years ago. Messrs. Jackson and Searle, of Rock Isl and, sre the attorneys for the defense, and W. A. Meese. of Moline. for the pros ecution. Mr. Buckley and Mr. Fitzgib bons have firms a short distance apart near Josiin, each of the properties being on a different side of the C. B. & Q. railroad track. The natural course of the water from the bluffs is past the north side of defendant's house. After the rains a very large body of water locates upon the land, and to prevent this he has put in a dam at the pMnt where it enters his property on its course to Rock river, thus driving the water through a ditch he has made to the railroad where it fiaally reaches the premises of Mr. Buckley. Almost all the farmers on the bottoms have to allow a certain amount of water to pass through their land but Mr. Buckley oojacts to naving his pasture inundated bv water which he alleges should pass along its natural course through Fitzgibbons' farm to Rock river, but which has been thrown upon his (Buckley's) place by artificial means resorted to by Fitzjibbons. The complainant asks that the defend ant be ordered to remove the dam and thus allow the water to take its natural course to Rock liw. Buckley also as-ks that he be awarded damages for the havoc already wrought on his land by the waters after the dam was built. Tbe case is a' trading a good deal of attention among the farmers in the vi cinity, and it is even said that Mr. Fitz gibbons threatened t.j shoot Buckley if hewtntupon his (Fi:z jibbon's) premises. HILLSDALE. Hillsdale. June 3. Joseph Mar shall started for his home ia Kansas to day. Henry Ashdown is the proud father of a boy. Fender & Nundle started their grocery wagon today. Pearsall Bros", shipped a car load of nogs yesterday. Timothy Buckley had a fine mare and colt killed by lightning Sundy. A large number of our people attended the dedication of the soldiers' monument at Erie Saturday. G. W. McMurphy received a telegram Tuesday announcing tbe death of old Mr. Ford, of Geneseo. The surprise on Herman Liphardt proved a success, and Herman was not the only one surprised; through the in genuity of his father a second surprise was arranged and successfully carried out. We will not state the nature of it. A grocery wagon of Durke's from Erie, together with tbe driver, had a wreck near Jonn Schall's last Friday. It is supposed the flowing bowl had a hand ia the work judging from tbe apparent condition of tbe rig and position of the driver when thev passed through here. One of our most successful farmers and a well known minister, each b'eing a great lover of practical jokes of a mild nature, tried their hand on each other one of those recent cold nights. The minister had taken the farmer home in bi" buggy, and tbe farmer complaining of the cold, put an idea in the bead of the reverend t! keep him out in the cold. He accordingly entered into a very inter esting discussion making frequent trips to the well for water until about two hours had elapsed and our farmer was chilled to the marrow (being dressed ia summer suit), when he decided to close the deba'e ty going for a book which the reveres d wanted to take along, but when in the house he immediately retired, leaving the minist- r at the gite until 5 o'clock in the mornirp. When he looked out tbe win dow a white frost covered the eurlh, like wise the minister, wno had taken his dus ter for a i-c&rf, ard delermined to stay until he re.-eived tbe book. The curtain dropped at this juncture. Jo;rl in Ye.lIrU. List evening at 8:3l o'clock at the resi dence of Jacob Ohlweiler and wife, on Sec ond ayenue, occurred the marriage of their daughter. Miss Caroline, to William Hoeft, Rtv. A- C. Mennicke, of the Ger man Lutheran church, officiating. The ceremony was performed in the presence of relatives and friends only, sf'.er which hearty congratulations were showered on the happy couple and the gues's gave themselves over to the enjoyment cf the hour. The bride is an accomplished and high ly respected young lady who was raised in this city, and the groom is the well known and popular book-keeper for B. Winter. The couple were the recipients of a large number of beautiful and costly presents, ard will make their home in a cottage at 716 Fourteenth-and-a half street. Happy Hoc.ieri. Wm. Timmons. postmaster of Idaville, Ind , writes: "Electric Bitters has done more for me than all other medicines combined, for that bad feeling arising from kidney and liver trouble." John Leslie, farmer and stockman, of same says: "Find Electric Bitters to be the best kidney and liver medicice: made me feellike a new man." J. W. Gardner, hardware merchant, same town, says: "Electric Bitters is just the thing for a man who Is all run down and don't care whether be lives or dies; he found new strength, good appetite and felt just like he had a new lease on life."
