The thermometer is again becoming the same object of interest which it was in the boreas afflicted days of January; a circumstance which forcibly illustrates the popular truism that extremes meet. When the temperature is very hot and when it is very cold the public is accus- tomed to stand with awe and ear-muff- s or fan before the mercury and watch its variations with a deal of delight-- The man that can discover the hottest or the coldest thermometer is bailed with glee, for it is a noticeable fact that the average man likes to believe that it is hotter or colder than it is. On a very warm day the soda water fountain of the man whose theremometer registers 102 3 will do a bigger business than that of the individ ual who owns a 96 register. An inven- tion of a thermometer that can be regu- lated should be a very simple thing and there is small doubt but that there would be a ready sale for the article. The fascinating hammock and the glee- ful croquet set are also becoming appar- ent. The hammock is a dangerous in- strument in the hands of man or maiden. One is apt to find it loaded at any time. Croquet, too, is dissipating. It savors of billiards and ten pins and only needs a clove and an Ice filter to make it popular among giddy young men whose atten- tion is now claimed by the seductive bock. The seersucker coat, the flannel shirt and the straw hats are also infallible signs of the presence of the summer sea. son. They are apparently on every band, head or body. All of which would indi- cate that Mr. James II. Fourth of July, with all bis patriotic possibilities is not a hundred years hence. - Kat the Proper L)4atin. A recent dispatch says: "A careful examination of the Washington monu ment will be made as soon as the freshet subsides by the officers in charge. There have been rumors that on account of the constant wear of the waters, which still surround its base, the foundations of the monument have been weakened and there are apprehensions that the damage will prove serious. The soil upon which it stands is exceedingly marshy, and it does not require any great length of time for water to penetrate. About two years ago congress passed an act ordering the filling up of Babcock lake, which lay at Its base. This was done at the recommen dation of the engineer in charge, who gave it as his opinion that the water was gradually working its way to the founda- tions of the monument and would in time wadermine it It is impossible as yet on account of the recent flood to make any extensive examinations." If the Wash- ington monument, as indeed many of the capital buildings, had been erected on a olid foundation above and beyond the reach of floodsanywhere but in a ma- rine marsh it would be all right today and would not require the constant ex- penditure that is being made. This is but One of a great many proofs that the District f Columbia does not contain the natural location for the seat of the national government. IT CREATED A STORM. A Bill af sues froa Rct. M ePkeetera rr Patriot le AVerTlrea Creates a rm ' rare la Baford Post. There is great consternation and no small amount of indignation expressed among the members of Buford post, O A.. R., just now over the receipt of a bill of $25 from Rev. Wm. McPheeters. a member of the post, for his services to the post and to the public on Memorial day, in delivering the oration at the Na- tional cemetery on the island. The post, it will be remembered, had charge of the exercises, and it was thought to be a compliment to Mr. McPheeters to ask him to deliver the oration of the occasion, not for a moment suspecting, however, that there would be any charges attached thereto, but this is where the parson "fooled 'em," for he doesn't give vent to his eloquence for patriotism for nothing, any more than he does for politics or any thing. Those who have bad political transactions with the reverend gentleman know how high he estimated the force of bis oratorical ability, but it was not bus peeled that he had such a liberal idea of the extent of his services on behalf of his old comrades in eulogizing dead fellow soldiers. One member of the post was so en- raged at this act on the part of the par son that he suggested if the pot would secure from the memorial day orator an statement of his charges he would pay it out of his own pocket for the Bake of having it framed and placed among the archives of the post. JOSL1N. Josr.iN, June 11 It is altogether too wet and cold to suit the farmers . A number of cows are reported to have died from clover bloat. A republican of this locality has pre dieted that the democrats would elect their candidate for state's attorney. The sun shines once more in ' the neighborhood of Joslin, which is cheer- ing and invigorating to the heart of the farmer. We are sony to have to state so soon after the calamity at Johnstown, that Joslin has been struck by a wave of "civil service reform." ine surprme spoRen oi last werR was at the resilience of Mr. Fred Osborn. The two Williams' and Mr. Aldrich were the musicians of the evening. Mr. C. Donnahoo, our newly ap- pointed treasurer of the school fra4, has transferred his money from Devore's bank at Port Byron to the bank kept by Rogers & Son. Some of the farmers of th:s locality are chewing their cud and vowing ven- geance and threatening that a book of remembrance will be kept against cer- tain individuals. A platform has been put forward by W. W. Jones, candidate of the Union Labor party for governor of Illinois, as a basis for the consolidation of the prohi- bition and Union Labor parties and woman suffrage. Potatoes ten cents per bushel and gilt -- edge butter fit for a palace, ten cents per pound. This is very encouraging to the farmers whom a protective tariff compels to pay $147 for $100 worth of good". Some people call this equal rights, others call it legislative robbery. The people of this locality patrons of Joslin postoffice were almost struck dumb with astonishment on reading in the Argus that our postmaster, Mr. Brewster, had been removed and W. II. Whiteside appointed in his stead. And this too, after mere than two-third- s of the repubs lican patrons of the office signing a peti- tion in Mr. Brewster's favor. And all this, too, after Mr. Oest expressing his indignation at the supposition that he would remove a man without cause. Are our representatives servants or masters is a question that has been asked by sev- eral, and to say that several prominent republicans have expressed their indigna tion, is drawing the matter very mild. A few weeks ago the Chicago papers published under glaring headlines that General Fink, in a speech, had denounced the prohibition party, and had left it thoroughly disgusted, and the roorback was copied in one-ha- lf of the republican papers of the country. General Fisk sent a telegram Baying that the report was a liie made out of whole cloth, and one of the papers published two or three lines of the denials in small type, and stuck it in one corner of the paper where it was thought but few would see it. But then this is an old republican trick and people are beginning to understand it, MULTTJM IN PARTO. BUFFALO PRAIRIE. Buffalo Prairie, June 11. H. Whitney, the road boss, has been busy putting in bridges. Mr. Albert Little called on Mr. James Vanatta last Thursday. Mr. Whitlock is supplying the wants of the people with fresh fish. ' John Kistjer boasts of having the finest McGreggor colt in the country. Mr. and Mrs. B. D. Peppers were the guests of Mrs. Marple last Sunday. Burt Potter can boast of having the finest twenty acre field of corn on the Prairie. Mr. Wm. Vanatta is building a hay shed. He says no more spoiled hay for him. Mr. Thompson Boney has improved the looks of the church yard by mowing the same. The prospect for corn is yery discour- aging. Small grain and meadows look very promising. Mr. Wm. Kistler has finished assessing the town. lie has been our assessor for four years and has given good satisfac- tion. Last Sunday was Children's day at the church and there was as good a turnout as could be expected, as the roads were very unpleasant to travel. Quite a number of young people took in the dance at Edgington last Friday evening and they report a splendid time, but if it had not been for the bad condi- tion of the roads, Stoddard's hall would have been crowded. An Indolent Organ. When the liver is indolent, as it must necessarily be when it fails to secrete the bile in sufficient quantities to meet the requirements of digestion and evacuation, it should be set at work with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The healthful stimu- lus to activity imparted by this incom- parable alterative, speedily evinces itself in a departure of the uncomfortable sen- sations in the right side; the nausea, fur upon the tongue, indigestion, and aick headache consequent upon inactivity of the liver and the diversion of the bile from its proper channel. Irregularity of the bowels is always and painlessly re- formed by the corrective indicated. which is infinitely to be preferred, both because it is safe and more efficacious, to blue pills, calomel and drenching' purgatives of every class. It cures and prevents fever and ague and rheumatism. - Tot tale. Fourteen dry lots on four years time, with aix percent per annum, to any one wishing to build this summer. B. Datbotobt. THE BOCK IavrBBrt PrsreMtYe Projects At the m ieting of the Davenport Busi- ness Men's itssociation Monday night the following were unanimously adopted: Where At,' There has been a law passed during past winter to appropriate $35,000 for the erection of a yiaduct in place of Urn present dangerous approach to the soutli end of the bridge crossing the south branch of the Mississippi river at Rook Island, III; and Wherbav The bill for said law was by some misrepresentation amended in tb United 3tatas senate so that the city of Rock Iiland would have to deposit with the tieasurer of the United States one-ha- lf of the sum named as their part of the expense on said viaduct, and as we, the Business Men's association of Davenport consider that the government does not leant to go into partnership with the ci y of Rock Island on a viaduct approach to a bridge that is in fact the main entratice from the state of Illinois to Rock Island; and Whereas, Said bridge and approach thereto wo ild be of no more benefit to the city of Rock Island than to the city of Davenr-or- t and its surroundings in Iowa, and s the government island is not a gei eral thoroughfare for public travel, therefore the people of Moline, 111., cross s ld bridge as much as the citi- zens of Davenport or R ick Island; there- fore be it Resolved, That the commanding officer at Rock Island arsenal is hereby request- ed toestimite the cost for the viaduct as an approach to Said bridge in with the other estimates for the arsenal so that the necessary appropriation can be passed by congre8ti the coming winter with the general apt ropriations for the arsenal. The question of street paving was dis- cussed generally, and information having been received that the property holders on Third street between Brady ami Main streets werj willing to put in brick pave- ment at tbf ir own expense so its advan- tages might be better understood, a com- mittee was appointed to push the idea to a successful issue. The Amphibious Ladies of Seattle. Col. John T. Crisp said on one of the re- cent wet deys: "You are very desirous of understand! ag the temperature of Puget Sound. Thii is a typical winter day of Puget Sound. It is just as wet as it can lie, and yet it does not s rn to rain. That which makes mud and ba 1 traveling is hardly to lie seen, so straight nd gentle does it, the rain, come down. Anil yet it comes. At one time I saw at least onoOoiisand ladies on the street with their gossamer coverings, swimming along, so to speak, like so many swans upon a lake, or ho many fairy 'Chinook salmon'' fish the aristocratic fish of Puget Sound-- ail there, all perfect, all happy, all souud, all provokingly sweet, all luscious, all game, all like so mar y full sails, courting and long waiting for the outgoing tide; all wet as the swan, whie perfect coat of down makes tbem impcrrious to water; all tipping thoir unibrellasfthigh with the passing gallants that they semed to say: "We carry thisonly in obedient! to the requirements of the sup- posed street regulations. But we are birds of water pure water from the heavens and do not need them.' "Kansas City Times. A SwelL A small boy was calling the other day on one of his s hool friends and fell into conver- sation with the mother of the latter. Ho was led to renia k tliat it was getting very hard to tell from the places in which people live whether th y are entitled to social considera- tion or not. Of course this is not the way in which he pt t it, but this is what it came to. "Xow, th xe is Blank street," he said, "you wouldn't th jik anybody that live on Blank street was c inch, would you t But there's Mr. T., he lives there." "And is Mr. T. muchT she asked, not un- willing to draw him out. "Mr. T.T ho repeated, with the air of one who is overwhelmed with astonishment that so obvious a fact should have escaped the knowledge .f anybody. "1 should think he was! He's in awful swell! Why, he won't speak to my father." The glirot se which a bit of naivete likothis gives into t le home life of the speaker is more instructive than pages of elaborate descrip- tion. Boston Courier. Wojitler of the Telephone. "Did you ever notice," said a pretty tele- phone girl to the reporter, "what a differ- ence there in in telephones. Actually they're as different as human beings. Some of them are excellent linguists, and others can't trans- mit a messnge in anything but American. W"hy, there a one instrument on my circuit, and if a Po e or a German rings up anybody and tries to speak his native tongue over the wire the in itrument simply refuses to work, and there's the aw fulest time that ever was. But just ler, a good Yankee try it and it will transmit with astonishing clearness. Now that's a fact," Buffalo Courier. Prevention Of diapBJW is bnlh ratinnol and scientific. If one knows the causes of most diseases and can remove that cause, the diseases must disappear. Prof. Wm. II. Thompson, of the University of the city cf New York, says: "More adults are carried off in this country by chronic kidney disease than by any other one malady except consumption." The majority tier cent of all diseases are caused by unsuspected kidney poisoned blood. Thf late Dr. Dio Lewis, in speak- ing of Warner's Safe Cure, said over bis signature: "If I found myself the victim of a serious kidney trouble, I would use Warner's Safe Cure." A compt.ny at St. Cloud. Fla., has 750 acres of sugarcane under cultivation and the outlock is so promising that more land has bn purchased. 100 Ladies wanted.

Large size package, 50 cents. At all druggists. It is estimated that a rainy day in a city of 200 000 people kills $25,000 worth of trade. The nsu U treatment of catarrh is very unsatisfactory, as thousands of despair- ing patien j can testify. On this toinl a trustworthy medical writer Bays: "Proper lecal treatment is positively nec-cessa- ry to success, but many, if not most of the remedies in general use by physi- cians afford but temporary benefit. A cure cannot certainly be expected from snuffs, powders, douches and washes." Ely's Creijn Balm ia a remedy which combines the important requisites of quick action, specific curative power with perf set safety and pleasantness to the patient.

Ninmrr.The thermometer is again becoming the
same object of interest which it was inthe boreas afflicted days of January; acircumstance which forcibly illustratesthe popular truism that extremes meet.When the temperature is very hot andwhen it is very cold the public is accus-tomed to stand with awe and ear-muff- s
or fan before the mercury and watch itsvariations with a deal of delight-- Theman that can discover the hottest or thecoldest thermometer is bailed with glee,for it is a noticeable fact that the averageman likes to believe that it is hotter orcolder than it is. On a very warm daythe soda water fountain of the man whosetheremometer registers 102 3 will do abigger business than that of the individual who owns a 96 register. An inven-tion of a thermometer that can be regu-lated should be a very simple thing andthere is small doubt but that there wouldbe a ready sale for the article.
The fascinating hammock and the glee-
ful croquet set are also becoming appar-ent. The hammock is a dangerous in-
strument in the hands of man or maiden.One is apt to find it loaded at any time.Croquet, too, is dissipating. It savors ofbilliards and ten pins and only needs aclove and an Ice filter to make it popularamong giddy young men whose atten-
tion is now claimed by the seductivebock.
The seersucker coat, the flannel shirtand the straw hats are also infalliblesigns of the presence of the summer sea.son. They are apparently on every band,head or body. All of which would indi-
cate that Mr. James II. Fourth of July,with all bis patriotic possibilities is not ahundred years hence.
- Kat the Proper L)4atin.A recent dispatch says: "A careful
examination of the Washington monument will be made as soon as the freshetsubsides by the officers in charge. Therehave been rumors that on account of theconstant wear of the waters, which stillsurround its base, the foundations of themonument have been weakened and thereare apprehensions that the damage willprove serious. The soil upon which itstands is exceedingly marshy, and it doesnot require any great length of time forwater to penetrate. About two years agocongress passed an act ordering the fillingup of Babcock lake, which lay at Itsbase. This was done at the recommendation of the engineer in charge, whogave it as his opinion that the water wasgradually working its way to the founda-tions of the monument and would in timewadermine it It is impossible as yet onaccount of the recent flood to make anyextensive examinations." If the Wash-ington monument, as indeed many of thecapital buildings, had been erected on aolid foundation above and beyond the
reach of floodsanywhere but in a ma-
rine marsh it would be all right todayand would not require the constant ex-
penditure that is being made. This isbut One of a great many proofs that theDistrict f Columbia does not containthe natural location for the seat of thenational government.
IT CREATED A STORM.
A Bill af sues froa Rct. M ePkeeterarr Patriot le AVerTlrea Creates a rm' rare la Baford Post.
There is great consternation and nosmall amount of indignation expressedamong the members of Buford post, OA.. R., just now over the receipt of a billof $25 from Rev. Wm. McPheeters. amember of the post, for his services tothe post and to the public on Memorialday, in delivering the oration at the Na-
tional cemetery on the island. The post,it will be remembered, had charge of theexercises, and it was thought to be acompliment to Mr. McPheeters to ask himto deliver the oration of the occasion, notfor a moment suspecting, however, thatthere would be any charges attachedthereto, but this is where the parson"fooled 'em," for he doesn't give vent tohis eloquence for patriotism for nothing,any more than he does for politics or anything. Those who have bad politicaltransactions with the reverend gentlemanknow how high he estimated the force ofbis oratorical ability, but it was not buspeeled that he had such a liberal idea ofthe extent of his services on behalf of hisold comrades in eulogizing dead fellowsoldiers.
One member of the post was so en-
raged at this act on the part of the parson that he suggested if the pot wouldsecure from the memorial day orator an
statement of his charges hewould pay it out of his own pocket forthe Bake of having it framed and placedamong the archives of the post.

It is altogether too wet and cold tosuit the farmers .
A number of cows are reported to havedied from clover bloat.
A republican of this locality has predieted that the democrats would electtheir candidate for state's attorney.
The sun shines once more in ' theneighborhood of Joslin, which is cheer-ing and invigorating to the heart of thefarmer.
We are sony to have to state so soonafter the calamity at Johnstown, thatJoslin has been struck by a wave of"civil service reform."

Mr. C. Donnahoo, our newly ap-pointed treasurer of the school fra4, hastransferred his money from Devore'sbank at Port Byron to the bank kept byRogers & Son.
Some of the farmers of th:s localityare chewing their cud and vowing ven-geance and threatening that a book ofremembrance will be kept against cer-tain individuals.
A platform has been put forward byW. W. Jones, candidate of the UnionLabor party for governor of Illinois, as abasis for the consolidation of the prohi-bition and Union Labor parties andwoman suffrage.
Potatoes ten cents per bushel and gilt --
edge butter fit for a palace, ten cents perpound. This is very encouraging to thefarmers whom a protective tariff compelsto pay $147 for $100 worth of good".Some people call this equal rights, otherscall it legislative robbery.
The people of this locality patrons ofJoslin postoffice were almost struckdumb with astonishment on reading in theArgus that our postmaster, Mr. Brewster,had been removed and W. II. Whitesideappointed in his stead. And this too,after mere than two-third- s of the repubslican patrons of the office signing a peti-tion in Mr. Brewster's favor. And allthis, too, after Mr. Oest expressing hisindignation at the supposition that hewould remove a man without cause. Areour representatives servants or mastersis a question that has been asked by sev-eral, and to say that several prominentrepublicans have expressed their indignation, is drawing the matter very mild.
A few weeks ago the Chicago paperspublished under glaring headlines thatGeneral Fink, in a speech, had denouncedthe prohibition party, and had left itthoroughly disgusted, and the roorbackwas copied in one-ha- lf of the republicanpapers of the country. General Fisksent a telegram Baying that the reportwas a liie made out of whole cloth, andone of the papers published two or threelines of the denials in small type, andstuck it in one corner of the paper whereit was thought but few would see it.But then this is an old republican trickand people are beginning to understandit, MULTTJM IN PARTO.

An Indolent Organ.When the liver is indolent, as it must
necessarily be when it fails to secrete thebile in sufficient quantities to meet therequirements of digestion and evacuation,it should be set at work with Hostetter'sStomach Bitters. The healthful stimu-lus to activity imparted by this incom-parable alterative, speedily evinces itselfin a departure of the uncomfortable sen-sations in the right side; the nausea, furupon the tongue, indigestion, and aickheadache consequent upon inactivity ofthe liver and the diversion of the bilefrom its proper channel. Irregularity ofthe bowels is always and painlessly re-formed by the corrective indicated. whichis infinitely to be preferred, both becauseit is safe and more efficacious, to bluepills, calomel and drenching' purgativesof every class. It cures and preventsfever and ague and rheumatism.

THE BOCKIavrBBrt PrsreMtYe ProjectsAt the m ieting of the Davenport Busi-
ness Men's itssociation Monday night thefollowing were unanimouslyadopted:
Where At,' There has been a lawpassed during past winter to appropriate$35,000 for the erection of a yiaduct inplace of Urn present dangerous approachto the soutli end of the bridge crossingthe south branch of the Mississippiriver at Rook Island, III; and
Wherbav The bill for said law wasby some misrepresentation amended intb United 3tatas senate so that the cityof Rock Iiland would have to depositwith the tieasurer of the United Statesone-ha- lf of the sum named as their partof the expense on said viaduct, and aswe, the Business Men's association ofDavenport consider that the governmentdoes not leant to go into partnershipwith the ci y of Rock Island on a viaductapproach to a bridge that is in fact themain entratice from the state of Illinoisto Rock Island; and
Whereas, Said bridge and approachthereto wo ild be of no more benefit tothe city of Rock Island than to the cityof Davenr-or- t and its surroundings inIowa, and s the government island isnot a gei eral thoroughfare for publictravel, therefore the people of Moline,111., cross s ld bridge as much as the citi-zens of Davenport or R ick Island; there-fore be it
Resolved, That the commanding officerat Rock Island arsenal is hereby request-ed toestimite the cost for the viaduct asan approach to Said bridge in with theother estimates for the arsenal so thatthe necessary appropriation can be passedby congre8ti the coming winter with thegeneral apt ropriations for the arsenal.
The question of street paving was dis-
cussed generally, and information havingbeen received that the property holderson Third street between Brady ami Mainstreets werj willing to put in brick pave-ment at tbf ir own expense so its advan-tages might be better understood, a com-
mittee was appointed to push the idea toa successful issue.

A SwelLA small boy was calling the other day on
one of his s hool friends and fell into conver-sation with the mother of the latter. Ho wasled to renia k tliat it was getting very hardto tell from the places in which people livewhether th y are entitled to social considera-tion or not. Of course this is not the way inwhich he pt t it, but this is what it came to.
