A couple Of Reckless Young Men
Cause serious Trouble anu
Come 20 Grief
A case of wanton recklessness in driv-
ing. which is becoming more or less COM
mon in the city Of late. was that in which
DR.. and Mrs. G. L. Eyster b rely escaped
serious injury on Saturday night. While
driving along Moline avenue near the
Galpin Moore residence. they were run
into By another rig and the wheels locked.
DR.. Eyster called to the driver of the
other rig to wait a moment, but instead
the horse was whipped up and the doc
tors buggy was dragged quite q distance
until a wheel was broken and the occu-
pants were thrown out on the pavement,
the horse being barely prevented from
running away. Fortunately DR.. or Mrs
Eyster were neither seriously injured,
| though they sustained . severe shock :.
The doctors horse was injured by having
the broken shaft run into his flank, but
the results will not be serious. The
reckless drivers of the vehicle were after
ward picked up in Moline and we're
brought back to this city. and at the po-
lice station gave their names as Charles
Sherwood and Ed Runcie.. They were
brought before Magistrate Wivlll this
morning and were each fined SO and
costs. The police should not only guard
more against fast and reckless driving.
but should investigate the cause of every
runaway, and every case Of csreleesness
either in driving or in leaving horses IN
hitched, be prosecuted under the city
ordinances
ACCIDENTS IN DAVENPORT
In Davenport Saturday evening as little
2>yesr old Freddie Ashlam was playing
in the street near his home at the corner
of Rock Island and Fourth streets he was
run over by one of the delivery wagons
Of the Frshm brewery. One of the
wheels Of tine wagon went squsrely across
the boys body, and although it was i'm
possible to tell the extent of his injuries,
il is feared that internal harm of a serious
nature may be shown. Sadie Hampton,
girl. witnessed the accident to
the Ashlsm boy. and the sight, prob
ably coupled with the prostrsting
effects of the heat. threw her into such
a state of nervous hysteris as to excite
the serious alarm of her relatives for
time. The physicians called. however,
do not anticipate serious results in her
case. A little daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
&Ilt Glsspell was the victim of an acci-
dent st about the same time that the
Ashlsm boy was hurt. The child fell
from the surrey in which it hsd been en-
joying drive with other me mbers of the
family. at Third and Perry streets. and
one of the rear wheels of the surrey
passed over it. In this C ,se the weight
borne by the child was not equal to that
which passed over the Ashlsm boy, but
there is also possibility Of internal in
juries developing.

A Very Old Love Letter

A small clay tablet, made of Nile mud
inscribed with about a hundred lines of
cuneiform Inscriptions, has been found in
the British museum, which, being trans
lated, appears as the marriage proposal OF
a Pharaoh for the hand of the daughter of
the king of Babylon. 1t is apparently the
office copy of a letter written about 1920

order book expressly forbade any cadet to
hold it toward fourth-class man, and the
same order, dealing with the ''hazing or
harrassing of candidates and new cadets"
made it breach of military discipline for q
"plebe" to brook abuse from Q superior.
The Boys Had to submit.
Why, then, did we submit to it? Because
we could not help ourselves. Because we
did not vet know that all we encountered,
so far from being in accordance with the
academic regulations, was contrary to their
very letter. Because we knew that if we
resisted we would be reported for trivial
offences that would otherwise have been
passed over.
On coming to camp we 'lplebes" were
placed two or three in tent We got our
tents in order and began receiving callers
We were told that whenever an upper GLASS
man put foot on the tent floor we were to
spring to attention" force our hands to
the position of thinning out" and wait un-
til we were spoken to before moving or
speaking The third class men were our

The "plebe" must fight or yield. For once
he remembered his manhood, and seconds
were speedily appointed.
Some of us were awake early that day
and saw the fight. Twas o'clock one still
morning in July when the seconds placed
their men in the ring on bit of green turf
Just inside the line of sentries The fog
was still thick in the hollows, but there was
plenty of light. They had an hour and
half for the fight before reveille. but they
did not need so much. Like all hard fights,
this one made brutal and sickening
spectacle, but it was brief enough. At the
end of two rounds the "plebe" had won on
a technicality, while in point of fact he was
so badly hurt and his opponent SO little that
the real result was the reverse of the nomi-
nal. The "plebe" had been tormented into
acute nervousness for a month and half,
underslept and overworked. His opponent
was fresh, well trained and vigorous The
beaten man went to the hospital He had
received three or four bad cuts, but his
worst injury was that of his back, which
he had terribly strained. And more than
all, the heavy pounding and the fierce ex-
citement of the fight had precipitated him
into a state like that of a woman in hys-
terra
He did not improve under the treatment
