AROUSED AND ARRESTED.
Capt. Blair Has an Experience ON His Boat
at Burlington.

1t takes something unusual to dis
turb ,he accustomed equanimity of
the popular master of the packet, W.
j. Young, Jr., Walter A. Blair. but
the exception came at Burlington the
other morning and the captain be-
came both aroused and arrested. The
Burlington Gazette tells about it:
Capt Blair of the steamer w. j.
Young. was arrested this afternoon
on charge preferred by Mrs. John
Doe. This morning Mr.. and Mrs. Doe
boarded the Young at Burlington. and
according to the statement of Capt.
Blair they made themselves very OBJ
jectionable to the passengers and Off
GERS of the boat. They took state
room and refused to show tickets to
the captain. Capt. Blair ordered the
two persons to leave the boat. The
man left, but the woman did not move
fast enough to suit the captain and he
took her by the left arm and escorted
her along the gang plank toward the
shore. As they neared the boathoHse
the woman struck the captain full in
the face with several swinging blows
from her right hand. She quickly re-
leased and hurried to the police sta
ton, where she filed information
against the captain, charging him
with insulting her. This afternoon
the police found Capt. Blair and took
him to the station, where he filed n
counter charge, accusing the woman
of assault and battery. The case was
taken to Justice Peabody's court.
Capt. Blair and the woman were both
released on 800 bail and will appear
for trial Saturday morning. 1t is
to be regretted that Capt. Blair has
become involved in this kind of an
affair He is man of very good
reputation. widely known and respect
ed in all the towns along the Missis- |
sippi. He will probably have no
trouble in clearing himself of the
charges against him.

that the very best remedy for restor-
ing the tired out nervous system to a

giving tone to the nerve centers in
the stomach. gently stimulates the
liver and kidneys, and aids these or

nounced by those who have tried it as
the very best blood purifier and nerve
tonic. Try it. Sold for 80 cents or

CAPT. DAVIS JAILED.
Master of the Lady Grace Arrested
at the lnstigation of
His Wife.
SHE Is SUING FOR A DIVORCE

Has Him Enjo6ned From Disposing OF His
Steamboat Property Pending the Dispo-
sitiOn of the Suit-Charge of Infidelity
and Gusta Madison Named as Correspond,
ent.
| William Davis, the well known
steamboat owner and captain. spent
last night in the county Jail, having
been arrested by order of Judge Gest
in response to a petition of his wife,
who has begun suit for divorce. She
determined on this method of pro-
cedure to prevent her husband from
euchreing her out of a share of his
property, all of which floats on the
Mississippi.
Mrs. Davis, whose name before
marriage was Susan G. Tyner. filed
an application for the annulment of
her connubial ties in the circuit court
Aug. %, also asking for writ of ne
exeat publica and an injunction
restraining her husband from moving
of the Rock Island county circuit
Both writs were issued. Ever since
Sheriff Hemenway and his assistants
have been closely perusing the river
news and patrolling the river shore,
repeating the saying of the Kansas
farmers chicken: I'm laying for
you.''
Asa O'Clock yesterday afternoon the
Lady Grace, with Capt. Davis on the
deck, hove in sight from the north,
towing a raft of logs, destined for St.
Louis. The captain having some bust
ness to transact in Rock Island, left
his boat and was rowed to shore in n
sl1iff, only to fall into the arms of the
officers. He was received by Deputy
Sheriffs Hull and Sample who, after
reading the order of arrest, escorted
the surprised captain to the lookup.
Mrs. Davis makes sensational charg-
es against her husband in her bill for
divorce. She saws they were married
at Carthage, H., Aug. 4, SS1, and
lived together until juno 0, 1897,
when she left him, being convinced of
his infidelity to his marriage vows
and obligations. Gusta Mattson is the
one whom Mrs. Davis states her hus-
band transferred his affections to,
keeping her at his home as a domestic
and finally taking her on the river
with him.
Owns Four Boats.
The complainant states that the
captain is the owner of four steam
boats, the r. j. Wheeler, William
Davis, Zalus Davis and Lady Grace,
and is worth about $50, 900, yet he
has failed to contribute to the support
of his family. Mrs. Davis says she is
broken in health and unable to do for
herself and her three children, the |
youngest of which is 3 years of age. |
Mrs. Davis asks to be awarded suffi- |
cient alimony and the care and GUS
tody of her children. In praying for
an injunction she set up the claim |
that her husband intended transfer |
ring his boats to the lower river. |
Mrs. Davis has retained C. j. Searle |
and j. w. Quillan as counsel.
Capt. Davis bail is fixed at Sc 900. |
He hopes to be able to furnish the |
which is required as security
for his appearance when wanted for
trial, today.

Miss MarIett's Funeral.

The funeral of Miss Marlett took
place from the the Presbyterian
Church at 2 o'clock this afternoon
Tho Church Was well filled with SYM
pathizing friends of the deceased.
The services were conducted by Rev.
NJ. S. Riddle, assisted py Mr.. w. S.
Earles. Mr.. Riddle delivered an APP
propriate discourse N which he spoke
OF The meekness, gentleness and I'M
seltishness of the deceased. Mr..
EeTles spoke Of her as an employee of
the E. I. M. Co, and gave incidents
i'll her life illustrating her faithfulness
ana fidelity to duty and the unset
tishness Of her character. Both dis
courses were feelmgly delivered and
made a marked Impression on the
listeners. e.
The pulpit was nearly covered with
flowers, those beautiful emblems of a
life beyond the tho grave. Loving
friends had also furnished many
beautiful and appropriate floral
tributes to the memory Of the deceas-
ed. These added greatly to the SOL
emnity Of the occasion and many
hearts were touched with sorrow be-
cause the life of this lovely character
had been snuffed out in the prime of
young womanhood.
After the services in the church the
remains were taken to the Knights Of
Pythias cemetery where the last sad
rites were performed and the earthly
part Of this noble young woman was
laid away to sleep until the resurrec-
ton morn.
May the God who never forsakes
the sorrowlpg comfort and console
the aged parents in their far away
Eastern home. May the beauties Of
their loved ones life be balm t. the
bruised hearts OF her sister and all
who mourn the loss of her who was
near and dear to them.
