CAPT. PIERCE THE WINNER.
Captures Cup IN Saturdays Handicap Golf
Match.

Match.
As the season advances the golf
course at Rock Island arsenal becomes
more and more the mecca of the en-
ergetic society people of the tri-cities.
Daily of late, morning and afternoon,
throngs of golfers have made their
way to the links and whiled away an
hour in their favorite amusement.
Saturday was no exception to this
rule. In the afternoon the course
was given over to the men for their
second preliminary tournament for
the mems handicap cup. The links
were in excellent condition and the
weather all that could be desired, so
that few true golfers could resist the
temptation to try round just for
luck; but with the incentive of q
handsome trophy to play for, ~ mem
bers entered the match and made the
double round of the course.
The play throughout was excellent
and plainly showed an improvement
over previous matches. The contest
was won by Capt. W. s PIERCE, of the
arsenal, whose card showed net
score of 90. Capt. Peirce thus be-
comes the second winner of the cup,
and secures the right to contest for
its final ownership in the fall matches.
Thursday afternoon, June 10, the
second of the handicap matches for
women will occur. 4 large entry list
for this event is expected, and close
observers confidently predict that the
skill and improvement of the ladies
will surpass even that shown by the
men.

Michael Wagner. who has been
working for F. NJ. Tindal on a farm
east of Milan for about week, was
drowned while bathing with some
other boys Sunday morning, one-half
mile above the Guard lock, in Rock
river. He. Mr.. Tindall's son, Frank,
and the other hired man, were on a
sand bar, when Michael waded out
and suddenly fell into hole.
He went under twice and kept crv-
ing for help, but the boys thought he
could swim and was only fooling. The
river was dragged where Wagner was
last seen, but the body had not been
recovered at late hour last night
Hc was stranger in Milan and is

Unknown, But There is Suspicion of
Train WreckIBg.
As the Rock Island west bound ex-
press was passing through Geneseo
last night the smoker and two
chair cars left the track and crashed
into the stock train standing on the
siding. Fifteen persons were njnred,
the three coaches demolished and the
stock train locomotive disabled.
An unknown woman, probably so
wears of age, whose skull was crushed,
died this morning ut the Geneseo house
to which place the injured were taken
and cared for. The injured: Con-
ductor Huntington, Chicago, bruised
in head and back; Mail Clerk NJ. f.

Mrs. Matilda Repine, S07 Second ave-
due, this city, received severe bruises
in the arms. One of her eyes was
also injured. She had a lucky and
narrow escape.
Cause Not Determined.
The cause of the accident has not
been determined. The switch where
the cars left the rails was found
closed and locked, suggesting the pos
sibility that the derailing of the cars
was the work of train wreckers.
Engineer Buck Hamilton was at the
throttle of the passenger train, which
was the No. II, due here at 1870.
The freight was standing on a side
track awaiting orders to move east.
The accident occurred about a half
mile east of Geneseo. The train was

KTIeen DIsavows UnfriendIy Intentions

hiiIeeh DlsaNONs
THE ARGUS was greeted this morn
ing by a few pleasant words from
Capt. John Killeen, the popular COM
mander in chief of the Diamond 10
line. The captain was not speaking
from the roof Of one of the palatial
steamers of his fleet, nor vet from
any point in Rock Island. The
cheering sound of his voice came over
a telephone wire from some point in
Iowa. Capt. Killeen desired THE
ARGUS to know that his company was
not seeking TO bulldoZe Rock Island
by giving us the gO-by, nor had the
company the least unfriendly inten-
tiOn towards the city. the captain in
sisted. 1t is simply question of OPP
portunities and accommodations. he
said, and nothing that the company
had any bitter feelings about. The
captain disavowed responsibility, so
far as his company or any one con-
ANYTHING that had been said in the
newspapers in the city along the river
with reference to the disagreement
between the company and the city of
Rock Island. As far as the commo-
dore Is concerned, the friendly feeling is
mutual or Rock Island part that much
is certain. His company has been
too hasty altogether in its disposition
toward Rock Island. but who could
get mad at the whole-sou!ed killeen?
Not in a thousand wears, captain, so
take a street car ride over the bridge
the next time You are passing along,
and drop in and give us shake.
