Crushed In Il Sewer.

Casper Mandel, aged SO years, an old
resident of the city, met with serious
accid ent this morning while working on
a private sewer on the corner of Fourth
avenue and Fourteenth street. There
were four men engaged on the work I'M
der the pay of ex-Supervisor Chss. Rit
ter. The workmen had excavated about
half over Fourth avenue, when the upper
half of the earth csved in, burying the
limbs of Mandel from the knees down.
Two of his fellow workmen dug him out,
while Mr.. Ritter and the other laborer
held and protected the other part of his
person. The patrol wagon with a
stretcher was summoned by telephone
and the old gentleman conveyed to st.
Luke's hospital, where DR. Carl Bernhar-
di was in waiting. The physician re-
ports that both bones of the right limb
are broken between the ankle and knee
and one bone of the left leg so crushed
that it was necessary to put it in splin-
tiers. DR.. Bernhard reduced the frac,
lures and the old man bore up we'll with
out opiates during the operation. DR.
5. G. Plummer, who is the physician in
charge of the hospital this week, assisted
DR. Bernhard.

sun and an off year to keep the republi>
can politician at home, when Athens on"
This was demonstrated today when the
republican county convention con-
vened at the court house. Office is the
principal attraction for the republican
statesman, and the number to be dealt
out makes no difference they will turn
out for one just the same as though there
were dozen loaves to be distributed.
The cand dates for states attorney were
on hand early, button holing the dele
gates as they made their appearance.
The indications were that Sturgeon had
the plurality of the delegates. but it was
not known what combinations might be
worked against him. The Moline dele
cation was an unknown quantity, for
while they were instructed for Moore,
it was no telling where they would go
when break came.
THE CONVENTION.
1t was half past one o'clock, when Boss
Wells, chairman of the republican county
central committee, called the convention
to order at the court house this afternoon.
After the Boss had given the Rock Island
delegation reserved seats on the east side
of the court room, he sounded the gavel
and requested the redoubtable Col.
Koehler Moline's pride, to read the call,
which the colonel did in his usual elegant
style.
Boss Wells then nominated Capt
Bennett chairman of the convention,
which met with the unanimous consent
of the convention. Capt. Bennett
thanked the convention for the honor
modest ~ he had held the position so
often. County Clerk Donaldson was I'M
animouslg elected secretary on motion of
Boss Wells Boss Wells then moved
that a committee of five be appointed on
credentials, which was carried. The
chair appointed Thos. Campbell. of South
Rock Island; J. W. Simonson. of Port
Byron; {, F. Hemenway, Moline; VIM.
Jackson. Rock Island; W. L. Heath.
Black Hawk.
The committee on credentials found
! good many vacancies. especially Moline,
| where it took all the Moline newspaper
fraternity present to help ill up, Editor
| McGlynn being made delegate at large.
Incomplete delegations were instructed
to cast the full vote of their ward or pre-
cinct.
The chairman appointed G. F. Gaetjer.

lers. Nominations being in order, J. n.
