Meanwhile, the work on Seventeenth street re mains in an unsettled nod impassi ble rendition. The National Clay eorop.vny is arousing much indigna tion en the part of projwrty holders by its maniiest inability to cope with the situation, and nt the pres ent r itc it is supplying material the improvement on Twenty.third alone will be stretched nut all summer, while the people living on the other streets are suffering inconvenience and delay that is simply outrageous.

For sonic months Mr. Downes had been at Kiverton, Ala., engaged with contract work for the firm of K. P. Reynolds & Co.. and while there he was taken with pulmonary and bowel troubles, w hich finally culminated in an ailment of the stomach. Three weeks ago ho was brought home from the south, and he has been very ill since. - Mr. lowncs was born at Cam bridge, Mass., March 2. 1829, and at Farraingham Mass.. Oct. 1, 1851, he and Miss K. Rice were united in mar riage. For many years he was mas ter carpenter at Watertown arsenal under Gen. Rodman, and he came under orders from that officer to Rock Island arsenal in April, 1866. Rock Island has been his home since. He served as boss carpenter under W. M. Channon at the arsenal until lkc. 20, 1878, when he became iden tified with the firm of E. P. Reyuolds & Co., with whom he has been asso ciated since, with the exception of the short interval when he served as superintendent of streets of the city under Mayor Blauding. While he was employed at the arsenal he built the wing dam at the head of the island, and while in the city's service he put in the dyke at the lower end of town, thus sav ing the city from inundation during high water. He was an expert in his undertak ing in the line of construc tion, industrious and painstaking, always genial and happy hearid indeed. one whom toknow was to like thoroughly. He was staunch democrat, and a work er in the party ranks. V nh the widow tue following chil dren survive: Mrs. G. N.' Brandon, Jefferson, Iowa; Nathaniel Downes.

The lio tlman III lira Iteturn V Mll. T. From Spring At Spring Valley quiet once more reigns, and Company A has broken camp and is home. Capt. h. M. Cook received orders yesterday from Governor Altgeld to return home. but when some of the people of Spring Valley were made acquainted with this fact, telegrams began to tly to Springfield, arking that the company be left at least three or four days longer, but the governor thought all danger of lawless acts over and ordered the militia home. Train No. 1, on the Rock Island, due in Rock Island at 5:10 p. m., pulled into the Rock Island depot at 5:3'J last evening. On the train were two special coaches, containing the Ritles and their baggage. At the depot the two coaches were detached and brought to the R. I. & P. depot, where l'leuer's band met them and escorted the soldiers to the armory. Here someone proposed three cheers for the boys, and they were lustily given. Then Captain Cook proposed three cheers for their Rock island friends, and these were given no less heartily. Their Appearance. The boys presented a most war like appearance as they marched down Second avenue. J hey were dusty ana nara looking, it was im possible for them to get shaved in the Valley, because they were blue coats, and some of the faces were adorned with an 8 days' hirsute growth. Of course, some of the society boys were thaved for the dance which was given Saturday evening, and they necessarily put up a pretty appear ance. Rut for the most part, the boys looked pretty hard after the Spring Valley campaign. Nearly every one of them had in Lis knap sack some souvenir of the lawless band, and one of the Rifles brought home a poster calling the atten tion of the miners to the fact that they were all expected to attend the funeral of one of the miners killed by the regulars, and signed 'Bv order of many miners." Tbs Banquet. Tonight at the Rock Island house occurs the banquet in honor of the company. It promises to be a very- pleasant affair. Insulted. ' An American traveler relates that, aliKhtinx at a hotel iu Granada, a man at the door put out his hand toward him. The traveler supposed that the mzn was tho porter of tho hotel and offered him his valise, Tho mail step- jkxI back, tossed his head and frowned scornfully. "Canunba!M ho exclaimed.
