Police Points.

The case of Albert Roseniield
charged with assault with n deadly
weapon, was nolle pressed this
morning and a charge of assault and
battery brought instead. He de-
manded trial by jury and the case
was postponed until o'clock this
afternoon by Justice Weld.
Tim kenoley was fined SO and
costs by Justice Weld this morning
for assaulting Louis Gross, a 14-year
old lad. From the evidence given.
it seems that young Gross and one
of Kenoley's children had some
trouble, and Kenoley happened along
and knocked young Gross down re-
peatedly, Maj. Beardsley and Mich
ael Griffin testifying to having seen
him grab the boy by the throat and
pick him up and throw him down
upon the sidewalk. Kenolev paid
his fine and was let 90.
In Justice Yields court George
Bugge, Charles You'd. Alvin Young
green, Peter Bugge and Ted Bugge
were tried for violating the fish laws.
The charge was preferred by Fish
Warden James First, the prisoners
being accused of spearing fish in
Rock river. Peter Bugge and Ted
Bugge were discharged for want of
evidence. and the rest pleaded gull
ty. George Bugge was fined $50 and
costs, and Alvin Younggreen so
and costs. Charles You'd was also
fined so and costs, which fine was
RENTED during good behavior.
Fred Schuett was arrested on a
warrant sworn out by his wife for
assault and battery. The trouble
grew out of no one know what, the
evidence being conglomeration of
sister-in-law. brother-in-law, daugh-
ter, Fred and Pauline, but through it
all Justice Weld found evidence
enough to fine Fred s25 and costs
for pushing his wife off a porch and
injurlng her, Fred stating that he did
not deny that he did it, because his
sister-in-law would not get out of the
house. On peace warrant Fred was
held in $500 bonds to keep the peace
for u months.

TALKING IMPROVEMENTS
Regular Monthly Meeting of the Citizens
Association Last Evening.

The regular meeting of the Rock
Island Citizens Improvement asso-
citation was held last evening in its
rooms, President Carse in the chair.
The standing of the association was
talked over, and the new secretary,
j. w. Day, said that he had not been
able to get the books yet; but thought
that he would soon and then he
would undertake the job of collect
ing the old accounts and soliciting
the members to come out to the
meetings. Mr.. Day was of the opin-
ion that enough money could be col
lected to pay all outstanding indebt-
edness of the association. and put it
in good shape.
Mr.. Champion, of the executive
committee, reported that the absence
from the city of some of his commit
tee prevented holding a conferenc in
regard to keeping or disseminating
the present rooms. and a meeting
was arranged to be held at O'Clock
this afternoon at the office of Will
liam Jackson, when n decision will
probably be reached in regard to the
matter.
Columbia Park
Quite a discussion was entered
into by the members present in re-
gard to the Columbian grounds.
Mr.. jackson said that the original
purchase had been with 4 view of
providing the public with recrea-
ton park on Il large scale and not for
speculative purposes. A park on
the Columbian grounds in full view
OF all the people entering the city by
the Rock Island, the Burlington and
the Milwaukee trains would create a
very favorable impression of the
city. Aside from the advantages OF
possessing and impressing. the city
would be given an opportunity to ac-
quire ground that in a few years
would become of great pecuniary
value on very easy terms. The dis
cussion was general and animated,
and the advantages of having a park
at this point well set forth. The
mem bers all seemed to agree that il
would not only be big thing for the
upper end, but of lasting benefit tc
! the city.

river will be returned TO all reporting
stations, and an interchange of re-
ports will be made between the Dav-
EXPORT station and that at st. Louis,
whose observer has charge of the
work from here down to that city
The system will place at the COM
mand of mill men, the packet COM
panies, the public in general, the
| most complete system of river re-
ports that have ever been inaugur-
ated. and will prove a valuable addi-
ton to the practical service of the
weather bureau.

RECKLESS RACING.
4 Collision and Narrow Escape on Third
Avenue.

avenue
Reckless drivers endulging IN a
brush on Third avenue last evening
caused an accident resulting in an
exceedingly narrow escape for Mrs.
T. W. Rinck, wife of the business
manager of the Union, and for
which, if apprehended, the drivers
ought to be severely dealt with.
At about O'Clock Mr. and Mrs.
Rinck were getting into their bug
gy on the side of the avenue
that was somewhat dark between
Twelfth and Thirteenth streets. and
Mrs. Rinck having just entered the
vehicle was still standing, when, COM
ing down the avenue she beheld two
or three rigs tearing along in an ex-
citing race. the drivers being appar-
emily unmindful of all else or
their surroundings. The lady seeing
that a collision was unavoidable.
screamed to the drivers to turn out.
but they paid no heed, and in a sec
ond one of the rigs had collided with
the back wheel of Mrs. Rinck's bug
gy, capsizing it. and throwing her
out on the shoulder and arm. while
her feet were caught in the wheel.
The horse at once became panic
stricken, and had not Mr.. Rinck
promptly seized it by the bit the con-
sequences might have been much
more serious than they really were.
Mrs. Rinck was carried into a house.
and DR.. Kinyon summoned. and later
she was conveyed to her
home on Twenty-third street.
While suffering from bruises
and shock, there are happily
no approximations felt as to an alarm
ing elimination of her injuries.

Who Were They.

The buggy occupied by Mrs. Rinck
was damaged considerably, as must
also have been the colliding vehicle,
though the driver did not stop to in
vestigate. nor did any of his COM
panions halt. One of the rigs, how
ever, turned out at Twelfth street.
but the others went on down Third
avenue. The police have something
of clew that may lead to their
Identification.
