The first of those, the lecture of Wm I. Marshall on "The Wondors of the Yellowstone," although fully and per slstently advertised, resulted In i deficit of some $C0. This locture was given while Mr. Frank Smith was conducting meetings at the rink and drawing evouing audiences of be. tween three and four hundred peo pie, to which fact was chiefly due Its failure.

The second entertainment Is to be given by G. Paul Smith, one of the best and most widely known charac ter artists or impersonators, as well as cartoonist who rivals Thos. Nast and F. Beard In his power of off-hand humorous sketching with charcoal and crayon. This entertainment was to have been given In two parts on two different eyenings, Saturday evening of this week, June 19, and Monday evening, June 21, at Library Hall, over the Publlo Library.

Ow ing, however, to the Turner parade, which takes place on Saturday even ing, the arrangement has been changed to a Monday afternoon mat Inee and evening entertainment. The program for the matinee will be chiefly.arranged for the entertain ment of children, who will be charged an admission fee of 10 cents Adults will be charged 25 cents for admission to the matinee. The evening admission to all parts of the hall will be 50 cents. Tickets to both afternoon and evening entertain ments will be placed in the hands of canvasser (probably Mr. Herbert Griffith) tomorrow.

It Is necessary to again urge upon the people of Moline the Importance and necessity of co-operating with the Board In every proper effort to maintain the efficiency of our Public The forthcoming annual report of the Board cannot fail to convince anyone who has the Interest of the community at heart that the time has come for him to express his interest in no uncertain way.

A New Industry. It was wilh pleasure that a Repub lican reporter, this morning, was shown through the feed mill of Messrs. Donahoo Mumrna. We were there given the opportunity to see a feed mill which Is a credit to the city and which will undoubtedly give satisfaction to Its patrons. The mill has been christened the "City Feed Mill," and is located on the east side of Nineteenth street between Fifth and Sixth avenues.

It consists of a two-story building 2sx30 feet in size, with a one-story addition of the same size. In the front part is the sheller and mill. The shelter will shell GO bushels of corn per hour and has an elevator attachment which carries the grain overhead when It can be run direct ly into tho grinding apparatus. This Is a Milwaukee French burr mill. costing new $400.

and it will make 23 bushels of chop feed per hour. It is so fine a mill that Hour could be ground with It and it will be utilized In grinding rye and corn meal and graham for family use. The proprietors have large bins for storing oats, corn, bran and chopped feed and have a large quantity of fine oats on hand. They Intend to make their "chop" of whole corn and oats and will take nothing from either before putting it Into their straight grade chopped feed. They will also handle bran and will mix it with meal when desired.

The indl cations are that next Wednesday will witness more strangers In the city than has ever attended any previous event of the kind.

In securing such entries as the Galves tons, New Orleans, Omaha's and Del wares the Interest usually attending these races has been greatly en hanced, for they are acknowledged crack crows in tho Association. Then there are enough new oarsmen to In cite curiosity, and all in all the pros pects are highly favorable. The Gal-vestons arrived today and have commenced practice on Sylvan water. The McGregors of Iowa, whloh in cludes Turner, formerly of the Syl- vans. are expected on Saturday evening, while tho Farraguts of Chicago have written that they will not be here before Tuesday.

There are a number of crews expected the last of the week. There are negotiations pending and a fair probability that Gaudaur aud Ham, two professional oarsmen will be present and row a race on one of the days. They are now In St. Louis and St. John hopes to secure them.

would be another attraction and a big one. In the junior four race on Wednes day lively Interest centers. The Sylvan's "big four" are expect ed to win this race, although outside of Moline the Iroquois are the favorites. The Sylvans are quietly preparing themselves ror a surprise, and their record is not known outside of Moline. But they will have to pull a good oar to win, as they compete with not only the Iroquois, but the Cedar Rapids, Davenports, and two other crews from Mollue.

interest attaches to this race, as the winning crew, rows the Farragut Seniors on the following day, aud the Farraguts are the boys who won the junior four last year, beating the Sylvans but half a length. There will be but two entries in the senior four, the Farraguts and the winner of the junior race on the first day. The Sylvans in the junior double- Cooper and Osborn have the Mc Gregors to row against, the latter being coached by Turner, and a strong crew. But Messrs. Arp and Knebergofthe Sylvans have prac ticed hard, and hope to rake in the Chestnuts.

In the junior pair oared shells are the Excelsiors, Davenports and Sylvans (Cooper and Osborn.) The Ex celsiors come from a strong club, their senior crew winning everywhere they go. The Davenports are old oarsmen, as are the Sylvan team, and the race will be close and exciting. In the junior single there is an ex cellent field, with double the enters of last year. The Sylvans are en tered Ih the gig race against two other crews, the Cedar Rapids and Faraguts. This being a short distance race is always warmly con tested, with a spurt from beginning to end.

There was no gig race last year. The senior double will be the pret- elest race of the regatta, with no exceptions. Besides the winner In the unior, there will be the famous Gal- vestous, Dolewares, of New Orleans and Oraahas. The Dele wares have won during the past two years, and beat the Galvestons at New Orleans a short time ago, but only half a boat length. It is claimed the Galvestons would have won had they rowed a yard farther.

The New Orleans crew witnessed the race, and now In coming so far to participate In our regatta, must expect to down both crews. It will be hotly contested. Scandu festival tonight.
