Spring street sewer Observation-Disclosures. 1850
Total. .................... ............. $4,000
Mayor Wheelock appointed Peter Nun
ger as collector of poll tax, but the council
refused to confirm the appointment by
vote of yeas to navs.
He then appointed John S. Smith for
that position, and his appointment was
confirmed by vote OF 5 yeas to 8 nays
An invitation was received from the
Rock Island city council for the council to
take part in the Fourth Of July celepra-
ton in that city.
Aid. Whipple moved that the city
attorney be instructed to draw up an
ordinance fixing the salary of the collector
OF poll tax at 10 per cent of the amount
collected. Carried unanimously.
Aid. Barnard moved that the city at
torney prepare an ordinance providing for
the Spring street sewer. Carried by a vote
of 6 yeas to nays-Grautz and Shallene
voting in the negative.
The council then adjourned.
A tempted Suicide of a Woman in
Moline.
The usually quiet little city of Mo
line was thrown into state of excitement
yesterday by the rumor that a mother had
attempted to commit SUICIDE, On investi-
cation it proved that Mrs. Samuel Jones,
living on Lynde street, just opposite the
Engine House, had taken two ounces of su-
gar OF lead with the intention of shutting
off this mortal coil. :" She swallowed the
dose which was to end her earthly exis-
tence just before noon, and when Sam.
who works at Harwood & Fisk's livery
stable, came to his dinner, she told him
what she had done, and babe him good-by
Sam Immediately started for Morey's drug
store, where DIR. Anthony fixed up an anti
dote which was administered during the af-
terno0n and night, and this morning the
woman was considered out of danger. On
being interviewed by THE ARGUS reporter
she SAID that her reasons for the act
were that her husband had ceased to love
her; that she had been sick and unable to
Go the work of the house for a long time
that her husband had become discouraged
in consequence of this and had threatened
to leave her; and that she could not bear
the idea of being deserted while she
was unaole to work for living, and she
therefore decided to end her wretched
leXistence. She seems to be very fond of
her husband, and seems to feel very badly
because his love has grown cold. She
says, however. that she will still continue
to try and win back his affections and viii
not attempt to destroy herself in the su
ture.

where he worked at Hartzell's tnow

Killed by the Cars.

CAIRO, ILL.,, June 2l.-Mr. George w.
Nation, the night yardmastor of the Hi
nois Central railroad in this city, was, in
coupling two cars last night, little before
10 O clock, caught and thrown under the
wheel of a freight car and almost instant
ly killed. He was very popular among the
officers OF the Central in this CITY, His
funeral takes place this afternoon. He
leaves wife and three children. The
Illinois Central Company has charge of the
funeral.
WHEATON, ILL.,, June ola very sad
and heart-rending accident occurred here
this morning, resulting in the instant
death of the wife of Rev. Mr.. Stvddard, of
Byron, Wis, who was the oldest daughter
of President Blanchard, of Wheaton Coll
eye, and the narrow escape of her child.
1t appears that when the Geneva accom-,
mediation train, for Chicago, was approach
ing Mather Station. at the eastern extrem-
ity of Wheaton, the engineer, seeing a
lady with child in her arms walking be-
tween the double track in front of his en-
CINE, sounded the whistle. Without look.
ing back to see on which track the train
was approaching her, she hastily stepped
upon the track upon which the train was
coming, and before the engineer could
check up, his engine was upon her, knock
ing her violently. off the track. The child
was fortunately snatched from her arms
in time to save it from sharing the moth
ers fate. The train was stopped after
proceeding about fifty rods, when the dis
tressing discovery was made that the un.
fortunate lady was Mrs. Stoddard, and
that she was dead, the shock having killed
her instantly. A murmer of anguish rar
through the crowd ofpassengers, which was
intensified on ascertaining the identity Of
the lady and the circumstances of the &C
cident The disaster appears to have beer
unavoidable as far as the engineer wa.
concerned, having been caused by the
lady's unfortunate mistake in steppinl
upon the wrong track when the engine
was too near her to be stopped The en-
