day was very fairly attended. The cool
weather kept good many away however. /
1t was a quiet and orderly gathering.

Hogeland, the Swede who will get
drunk, and when in that condition never
fails to be noisy and insult passers by, was
locked up by Officer Olsen on Saturday
night He tried to bride Oluff. but that
officer, lone of the best on the force)would
not bite. This morning Squire Mapes
fined the offender ST and costs, which did
not seem to please Hogeland very much
On Saturday night or early Sunday
morning some unknown party entered the
room Of Henry Mars, on Wells st. over
Raisley's auction room, and took his watch
and chain. Henry is the boss Mogul of
the colored element of Moline and is at a
loss to imagine why he should be SO I'M
kindly treated. They did not get any
money for dat was way down in de bot
tom of de trunk wild de clothes on top"
Dane Burger is as popular young man
as we have in Moline, and some of his
friends, in order to show their esteem, got
together at Simon Hirsh's on Saturday
evening and presented Dane with mag
ni6cent banjo, silver mounted, and enclosed
in a handsome box. The affair was ii
complete surprise to Mr.. Burger. He re-
sponded in few happy remarks thanking
the donors and declaring his inability to
properly express his thanks. Marks
Goldberg made the presentation speech.
He said he was great many miles
from home, that he did not drink, and
was trying to beg enough to take him to
his native town; would the gentlemen
present be kind enough to give him ten
cents each to help him on his way. Moved
) to pity number responded, and the man
appeared happy. About an hour after
wards he could he seen under the shade
of tree, counting his roll of greenbacks.
He only had $49S, and quietly told his
new made friends that "he saved his mon
ey." At first they were angry, but second
thought convinced them that they were
sold. 1t won't be very healthy for any
tramps who tackle that crowd for money.

day, and the services of an interesting
o nature. The sermon at the Baptist church
