Day.

John Day, of the Moline Pump
works, never visits Geneseo without
falling into the News office. Years
and years ago John took fancy to
us. a fancy that ripened into love of
the deepest dye. His father was the
principal dry goods merchant in
Peoria when the writer was the
heavy tragedian on the Peoria Daily
Journal. John took a wonderful
distaste to dry goods and went in for
wet goods so strong that he had to
have a gold foundry run through his
system by the Morrell Liquor Cure.
He came out as bright and shining as
a new tin pan on a gate post. and
now sells pumps, because he believes
in water. He even carried his refor-
nation so far as to join the Baptist
church, He goes in for water first,
last and next time. He SAYS that
without water his life would be un-
Illuminated by ray of hope. Every
time we see him coming we run for a
pitcher.-Geneseo News.

THE MOLINE SENSATION.
The Troubles Between Messrs. Bryant m

The Troubles Between Aessrs. Bryant and
Wright In the Police Court.
Officer Geisberger went up to the
Moline Pump Works yesterday fore
noon and arrested A. S. Wright, on q
warrant sworn out by A. r. Bryant,
charging him with assault and bat
terry. The officer found both men in
the office, with no traces Of the storm
which so recently passed over. The
Republican-Journal says: "a. r.
Bryant has secured William Jackson
as his attorney and evidently pro-
poses to prosecute Mr.. Wright to the
full extent of the law. That Mr..
Wright will receive a nominal fine is
expected, for though the assault was
committed. the great provocation
will serve to lessen the amount of the
penalty, which can not be less than
s. OF more than 800. Mr.. Wright
has secured w. j. Entrikin to defend
him. He was out of the city, and
] upon Mr.. Wright's request a contin-
uance of the case until next Satur
day was granted.
After the assault case is disposed
of Mr.. Wright may be required t.
give bonds to keep the peace.
