Added to these rawlings comes the
knowledge that after seeing the re-
port in The ARGUS of what was GO
ing to happen in East Moline" a
Moline reporter rushed to the Office
of the East Moline company and de-
manded the source of the information
communicated to The ARGUS. There
was no one present but a de-
fenseless, innocent typewriter girl,
but the indignant newspaper man
stamped around and swore the
eternal vengeance OF the press
of the town upon the company
that would give 70 a Rock Island pa
per first the news that belonged ex-
clusively to Moline, but he could not
find where The ARGUS found it. and
finally, when the young lady thre at
ened to call the police patrol from
Rock Island, he ceased his rawlings
and left.
And now. by way of an apology to
the Moline papers, for whom The
ARGUS has the greatest considers
tious. it will repeat that negotiations
are about complete for other facto-
ries on the East Moline site, and il
they will calm themselves, they may

Gen. John c. Black, United States

suit yesterday for the recovery of

that the road is one Of those su5si-

Rich Red Blood

In the body of an adult person there are
about Is pounds of blood.
The blood has as its most important ele-
ments, small round corpuscles, red and
white, in proportion Of about 800 red to 1
white one.
II the number Of red corpuscles becomes
diminished and the white ones increased
the blood is impure, thin, lacking in the
nutrition necessary to sustain the health
and nerve strength Of the body.
Then That Tired Feeling, Nervousness,
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, or Others of the long
train of ills, according to the temperament
and disposition, attack the victim.
The only permanent remedy is found in
a reliable blood medicine like Hoods
Sarsaparilla, which acts upon the red cor
puscles, enriching them and increasing
their number. 1t thus restores the vital
fluid TO healthy condition, expels all i'm
purity, cures Nervousness, That Tired Feel
ing, Scrofula and all other diseases arising
from or promoted by low state Of the blood
That these statements are true we prove
not by our own statements, but by what
thousands OF perfectly reliable people say
about Hoods Sarsaparilla. Read the testi-

Not ON the MI.

At the Hermann performance last night
an incident occurred which was not on the
bill. During the performance of Herr
mann the Great a gentleman stepped upon
the stage and calling Mr.. Hermann to
the front presented him with a very fine
polished mahogany box with sterling silver
top as a token from his many admirers and
friends In Omaha. This box contained fifty
of the already celebrated king Hermann
cigars. which are manufactured for Max
Meyer G. Co. of Omaha and seem to have
taken the smokers by storm, as everybody In
Omaha and vicinity smokes only king
Hermann"
The label is beautifully gotten up, having
portrait Of Mr.. Hermann in the center
on the left vignette showing him taking
soldiers shooting at him, which feat was per-
formed by him at the Metropolitan opera
house in New York City last summer for
the benefit Of the free ice fund.
Max Meyer & Co. were very lucky In
hitting upon a popular name like king
Hermann" and obtaining the sole right fol
this brand Of cigars in the United States, as
undoubtedly they will be sold very largely
all over. They are manufactured for Ma,
Meyer & Co. by Kaufman Bros, the best
| and Oldest cigar manufacturers in New Yorl

samples, which were distributed In glass

Colombia, believed to be from Captain Crom-
well Of the Atlanta, relative to the progress
of the revolution in that country. The At

Panama railroad, are very much exposed,
no cruiser being nearer than Bonaventura,
Colombia, about 800 miles distant where
the Ranger has been stationed since Febru-
airy 20. Secretary Herbert was in consulta-

ing the advisability of sending a vessel to

Leaves n Letter Indicating that He Has
committed suicide.
Charles Hasbrouck, for a number Of years
a resident of this city and connected with
several drug stores in the past seven or
eight years, disappeared last night and the
police and his friends have been unable to
locate him. Hasbrouck was employed by o.
+. Bangs in drug store at Twenty-fifth and
Cunning streets five years ago, and when
Bangs died Hasbrouck appointed ad-
ministrator OF the estate. The store was run
for some time under his management but
was recently sold out. Since that time Has
brouck has been out of employment, and be-
ing unable to support his wife and family
in the manner in which he desired, he be-
came discouraged, and IL is thought he has
made an attempt to destroy himself
A few days ago he gave check on the
Omaha National bank in payment for a
board bill he owed for his wife and two
children. The check was given to John p.
Henderson, proprietor of the Henderson
house at Eighteenth and Nicholas, and when
presented to the bank for payment 1t was
found to be worthless. The proprietor Of
the hotel then forbade him to stop at the
hotel until the bill was paid, hut permitted
the wife and children to remain. This
seemed to prey upon his mind and last night
he sent messenger 10y with note to
one of his friends Orn Petrie, who lives at
Twenty-eishth and Webster. The letter is
as follows:
Won't you go to the Henderson house
and get my wife and two babies a nd take
them to your homo? 1 am ordered out Of
the hotel because l cannot pay my. board.
Please do It for poor brothers sake who

The night clerk at the Henderson house
says that Hasbrouck has wealthy relatives
in New York City, from whom he has re-
! Gently received money. He has been he ad-
ministrator for the Bangs estate and
has coming to him in fees $500, which
was to be paid tomorrow. Nr. retrie has
