In appropriateness to theoccaslon. The rooms had been elaborately decora ateil with flowers and foliage, and many were the compliments and best wishes paid the genial and popular deputy collec tor and his estimable wife. Biehs Ruck Island arsenal band was present, and dis coursed happy music. A bounteous feast was served, and the evening was spent in social intercourse, dancing in which ex-Mayor Molt, led, and other amusements.

VV Gray, Fred Appelquist and II C sclialer; halt dozen bottles champaign Tegeler & Co. The affair fully attested the kindly feel ing toward the deputy collector and his wife, by their many friends in Rock IsK and. The Sebool Board. A special meeting of the board of edu cation was held last evening, the partlcu lar object being to consider the matter of changing the hours of session at the high school. President Buford, Secretary Kenible, and all the directors were pres ent. The committee on reference books rec ommended the purchase of acopy of Rid path's history of the United States, and Ihu "Boys of "70" and "Boys of 'Ot" for No. 0. The recommendation was ap proved. Mr. Barge offered the following as reg ulatlng the appointment and salary of substitutes: In case of necessity of a teacher's ab' sence from school for a period not ex cceding two weeks; the superintendent shall employ a substitute for said time. But ir the absence will probably exceed two weeks, the board shall make the ap pointment. When a substitute is an experienced teacher fully capable of Ailing the place of the regular teacher; then shall an order for the full month be issued to the regular teacher, who shall pay the sub stitute the salary of the room for the time of substituting. But when the substitute lacks exper ience, then shall the hoard issue separate orders, paying the regular teacher for the time she has taught and the substitute at the rate of $33 pur month. The committee on teachers reported the resignation of Miss Bessio A. Reynolds, teacher of the second grade at building No 3, to take effect at the close of the present school month. The resignation was adopted. It was directed that the jauitor should be furnished lumber for the construction of u bookcase at No. 6. The following bills were allowed: Thomas F. Cary, $102; Davis & Co., 287.84; J. E. Spencer, $7.50; Henry Part's Sons, $1; D Donaldson, $1.20; John Barge, .75; John Volk & Co., 91.- 6;S. S. Keiuble, $15.85; O. P. Swanson, $132.11. The proposition for the single sessions at the high school came up for discus sion. I hero were ninety-nine replies to the circulars sent out to the parents of children attending the high school, ninety- live of which favored the trial of the pro posed plan. The hoard accordingly or- loreil the experiment to begin November 2, sessions to open at 9 a. m. and con tinue, with two intermissions of fifteen minutes each, until 2 p. m., when the school shall be dismissed for the day. Miss Ilallie Trow was appointed to fill the vacancy at No. 3. at $25 per month. Mr SouthwtU't Lecture The first of the series of excellent lec tures to be given by the Y. M. C. A. this winter, was delivared by County Super intendent J. II. Southwell at the associa tion's rooms in this city Thursday even ing. The subject was the "Kock strata of the Earth," and Mr. Southwell being a scholar in geology, he handled the sub ject in a manner that was as Instructive and interesting, as it was broad and com prehensive. In beginning be glanced over the nebular hypothsis, giving LaPlace's theor ies ot the origin of rotation. Then taking up the Rock's strata at the Laur cntian period, outlined its proximate boundaries, . and traced through the upier formations from the Laurentian in Wisconsin to the southern point of Illi nois, describing some of the peculiarities f the several formations and the prin cipal materials of which they are com posed, dwelling more particularly bow- ever, upon the geology of Illiuois, and to more forcibly illustrate irmulions constituting the surface f the state under Ibe drift, under the drift, distributed a geological map of the state of Illinois to each one present. To illustrate other portions of the lecture maps of North America, during the period of the first land.elvated above the waters, aud the surface of the earth, were also distributed together, with tables of the American geology, and a geological map of Rock Island county.

"Quinine and whiskey is the latest call," said a barkeeper to the pilgrim the other morning, "It's funny how the practice came about, too. They boys used to come in here and say, "Give us the dice.' Well, I gives 'em the dice and they say, 'We'll shake you for the drinks.' So I shakes and some way they always get it on the house. So Ed he comes around one night and sees us shakin' and he says, 'What's the matter with these fellows always wantln' to shake for the drink.' says he. So I ups and tells him what the game was aud the next night he comes around with a bottle of quinine and says, When they want to shake, just give 'em some quinine, 6ays he. So when they comes in after the theatre and asks for the dice, I puts a little quinine in the bottom of the glass and sets up the bottle. If a man gets a good dose of quinine in his whiskey he don't want no dice." "Let me tell you a little story about Jim Blaine aud Frauk llutton," said a gentleman from Burlington this morning. "A few years ago Blaine was out in Iowa making speeches, aud llatton was then chairman of our stale committee, uud of course went along with as big a man as Blaine to the various nice lings. They were on the cars ouo day going to a a country town to speak at a meeting when Blaine turned to llaiton and said: " 'At this town we're going to I believe there's a mau named Chris Sclilagle, isn't there?' " 'Ves, replied llatton,' and I know him by Bight.' " 'If you see him on the grounds,' said Blaine, 'point him out to inc. I used to know him down in Washington county, Pennsylvania.' After Blaine and llatton had got upon the stand, and while some local orutor was speakiug. llatton spoke lo Blaine and told him where Sclilagle was standing. Blaine got up and marched straight for the man poiuted out to him. "'How are you, Chris? he exclaimed, holding out his hand. 'I remember you well. You have changed very liLlle since I knew you down in Washington county. I never forget a face. llowp is Mrs. SchlagleV "'B-butmy nuuie ain't Heblagle,' re plied the astonished fanner; "my name is Scheimerhorn, and I never was in Penn sylvania in my life.' "Blaine walked back to the plalform quite discomtited. llatton said tie had made a mistake, but Blaine looked at him in a queer sort of way, as if to say: 'I'd get even with you yet. llatton never shed a tear when the news came last fall that Blaine was defeated." "I am pleased to sec the Hennepin project stirred up again," said n citizen bulling the pilgrim; "keep the ball rolling, aud let it be seen Hint Mayor Murdock appoints the right kind of men to go to Washington and look alter the canal s interests this whiter. Bo sine and have men who will go, not in the interests of any personal aim hut to look after Hennepin, and see that it is properly rep resented and carried through." "There is every reason for local ens couragcinent in the soldiers' home sub subject," said a merchant this morning. rtI believe those commissioners mean business, and w hen Ihey reach their de cision it will pleaso everybody in the state. They are going to award it to the most suitable locality if it takes all win -ter to decide upou it; that is my opinion cn the subject." "How about the new motor line to Mo line. Seems to me it has dropped out of sight rather suddenly," exclaimed a resi dent on Third avenue," I expected to see the cars flying past my door before snow flies. Do you think the proposed lino will be built this fall?" The Melancholy Days. This delightful season of the year is upon us, the days in which it becomes necessary to put up the regular front room stove. Some put them up themselves while others send word to the stove men to come and erect the heat producers for them. It is very encouraging to tackle the telepone, call up some dealer, inform him that a stove is needed to be set up at No. so-and-so, such a street, only to get back the answer: "Mr. Man won't be down this afternoon. He is too busy with blank orders ahead; Some other after noon; good afternoon." 1 Thoso who depend upon themselves to put up their own stoves will save chalk marks against them on the angel's record book if they will first lay the stove pipe joints in a row the way they arc to go when up and in line, and then cull in some street arab who has no conscientious scruples regarding the use of language and give him a nicklc or two to roundly curse the pipe. It will then go together like a charm, and without a single balk or break. Such is life in the days of Ibe sere and yellow leaf. Progressive Enchrf Party. A most delightful progressive euchre party was given last evening at her home on Moline avenue, hy Miss Carrie War- ner to about twenty-four of her select friends. The first prize giveu, for the greatest number of gilt stars earned al the head of the table, was a uni'iuc, sUtined cul glais canoe, and was won by Miss Lucy Cable. The secoi.d prize at the same table was a very handsome ham mered bronze ash receiver, won by Mr. Tom Buford. The first booby prize for the largest number of red stars, won at the last table, represeuliug the greatest number of defeats, was bravely struggled "for and against" and finally won ny Mr. W.' H. Maishall. The second prize al Hie same table was gracefully home off by by Miss Anna Buford, both beiiug large golden scoops daintily arranged as a key receiver, and emblematic of having been scooped" at the game. The arrange ments were so perfect and complete in all the details, as to make the evening's en tertainment a most happy event. AH UOOU AS tt:it. Rock Island' Chances for Securing the Soldiers' Home Return or the Delegation. Hon. H. C. Cleaveland, Hheriff J. M. Reticker, J. T. Kenwortby, Esq., and Messrs. Gilpin Moore and Morris Rosen field, reached home from tho state capi tal this morning, where they have been during the deliberations of the soldiers' home commission, which ad journed yestesday afternoon to meet at Chicago next Tuesday. From conversa tion with the gentlemen named, the Ar uus is enabled to state that Rock Island's chances for securing the soldiers' home arc as good as ever, and in the opinion of many, better than ever before. Mr. C.'eavcland and the others have had no reason to change the opinion they formed of the comtLissioners on the occasion of their visit of inspection lo Rock Islau-1 that they are upright and conscientious man , ouch and uvery one of them, and that Ihey will give tho home to the locality most suitable to the purpose. For this rest on the delegation feels encouraged. While in Springfield they had nn oppors tuuity of studying the motives of the commissioners, aud they believe the home will be awarded to Rock Island, if in the minds of the commission it possesses the advantages to warrant it. The outlook for the city is therefore as good as ever, for while the commissioners have made several attempts to reach ' a decision through balloting, and failed so fur to make a choice. Rock Island has iu no in stance dropped out of sight. The gentlemen are well satisfied with Ihe lay of the laud. They believe that the claims of tills locality have been audi -cientiy urged upon tho commissioners, who were undoubtedly impressed with the situation when it was shown them. Rock Island it. "still in the ring, "aud will remain there until' a final decision is rcn dered. Tho verdict, no matter what it may be, will bo gracefully received by Rock Island, our citizens beleving that the home will go to the city, best adapted to it. Mr. Cieuvelund, and tho gentlemen who were at Springfield last weuk together with other representative citi ens will leave for Chicago Monday night. Camp Manffan. Ex-Mayor, J. Z. Mott, has handed the Annus a copy of the Dubuque HertUd of the 2t)lh inst., containing an account of a visit to the camps of men employed in the construction of the new Chlcugo, Burlington & Quincy road, from the fol lowing is an extract: On Sunday a number of young men possessed of a military turn of mind and withal pedestrians of no small repute, concluded to visit the camps on the east shore, and more espicially that of Mr. P. Maugan, well kuown as one of tho most reliable railroad contractors in the west. On the east bank of the Platte is Man gun's camp, a veritable "village" with all the regulation of an army post. The camp is situated a mile east of the river bank and is nestled between tho hills upon an old Indian burying ground, Two large stables 200 feet long, two large sleeping apartments, a large mess room for the men, a blacksmith shop, drivers' lodging house, a store, an office and a dining rooin for the contractor and his foreman, com poses the camp proper. These buildings are constructed in a. substantial manner. Every one is lined with tar paper uud the cracks covered with lath. In tho mans ngcnieut of this "railroad" village Mr. Mangan has no trouble. Two hundred men make this their home, aud every mau lias his work to do, and a clean be I to sleep upon, with plenty of clothing. The quarters are roomy and clean. Iu the large eating house the best ot wholesome food is served in abundance. Within the largo stables are ninety head of Kentucky mules or superior breed, and all them well cared for. It is a curiosity in itself to see Mr. Mangan's line herd, and they play a conspicuous part in pav ing the way for the iron horse. The vis itors were ushered into the office where Mr. Mangan gave them a royal welcome, to say nothing of the etc's., which one feels so much in need of after a long dis tance pedestrian match. In due time the guests were mane comfortable at Mr Mangan's festive board, where there was no lack of cutiblcs, and indeed Delmonico never prepared a liner spread. The charge of the "light brigade commenced right at that instant. I lie excellent din ner wan prepared by Mrs. Reilley. who keeps Mr. Mangan's private hoarding house, and ot whom the visitors speak of very highly. The State Convention.
