AFTER THE SCALPERS
Railroads to Put Agents to Work
in Different
Cities.
FoRGERs TO BE PROSECUTED
Companies Determined to Extermin-
ate Manipulators of
Tickets.

y war of determination has been
declared by the railroads against
crooked ticket brokers and ticket
manipulators. The plan as formed is
to have agents of the railroads in ev-
cry city in the country, whose duty
it shall be to keep watch for ticket
forgery and manipulations and to run
to earth all who are engaged i'm de
frauding railroads and the travelling
public.
1t is altogether likely that the Pink
crton Detective agency will have
charge of the matter, and will be Civ
en- full swing in the employment of
agents and the expenditure of money
The purpose IS to make it impossible
for anyone To do anything Illegal with
Il railroad ticket without detection
and conviction. The railroads inter
cstcd in the matter have decided that
expense shall not be spared. and we'll
known ticket manipulators will be
bounded from. city to city until they
cease their operations, or are landed
behind iron bars. 1t will be a rcIent-
less chase from the start, and money
and skill will be provided on the rail
road side of the battle to the fullest
extent.

Many New Articles offered.

Much of the rummage this season is
not rummage at all, but new goods
donated by merchants of this city
and Davenport. There is great deal
of new crockery and some new fur
niture, while several department
stores have contributed literally with
miscellaneous articles. The grocery
and produce department is a new de
parture in rummage sales in this city
and the demand for the articles sold
far exceeds the supply. Among the
most attractive bargains offered are
a collection of rugs manufactured at
the Union Mission rug works before
the establishment was leased out.
The rugs that had been manufactured
at that time were kept and now they
have been marked down and placed |
ON sale.
Of course the collection of rum
so complete that those in charge have |
nothing more to wish for. They are |
still anxious for country produce. for |
which there is Il marked demand, and |
Mrs. Blakemore wants cakes and 9th |
er eatables for the refreshment de- |
partment. Although the ladies have |
come nobly to the aid of the mission /
in the work of preparing for and con- |
Quoting the sale, there is yet room |
for the employment of more help in
nearly all departments. Several |
young ladies would be especially use |
full in the refreshment department.

.RUMMAGE SALE IS ON
Rink Thrown Open to the Bar
gain Hunters at z O'clock
This Afternoon.
GREATRUsH FOR CHOICE OFFERINGS
Collection the Largest and Most Var
led That Has Been Of
fered Here.

At O'Clock this afternoon the
doors of the rink were thrown open
and d vast crowd of bargain seekers
surged in to snap up the most tempt
ing offers at the rummage sale of the
Union Mission. From that time on
the streets were lined with people
triumphantly bearing away bundles,
big and little.
All the rummage sales that have
been held by the Union Mission have
been big affairs, but the one that
opened today eclipscs them all. 1t
really seems that the collection and
sale of rummage creates more rum
mage and each time the collectors
find larger amounts and greater vari-
ETY..
For Il number of days past three
wagons have been busily hauling ar
ticlcs of every description to the rink
from all parts of the city and even
from Moline and Davenport. During
most of that time dozen or more
devoted ladies. and in some cases
their husbands, have worked early
and late sorting cut, pricing and tag
ging. The task is one that might
have appalled, those less enthusiastic
i'll the cause. There is still much to
be collected, one of the wagons hav
ing yet over 100 places at which to
call for rummagc, and this work will
be continued throughout the sale so
that new bargains will be placed on
the counters continually.

Sharpers Are Numerous.

| 1t is estimated that there are toda v
nearly 5000 sharpers who make their
living by forging or manipulating
| tickets. One of the pioneer movers
in the fight against the ticket brokers
is George Daniels, general passenger
agent of the New York Central. and
largely through his efforts the trunk
lines have agreed to join the prutec-
tive bureau, which is now being or
ganiZed.
Thus far the trunk lines ana the
lines of the Central Passenger aSSO-
citation have agreed To join the bu-
reau. In fact these lines will organ
ize the bureau irrespective of wheth-
er any other lines come i'm. Commits
sioner Donald, of the Central Passen-
ger association, and Chairman Nc
Leod, of the Western Passenger assoc
citation, have been appointed Il com
mittee to draw up plan of organiza-
ton and submit il to the vote of the
lines. Any line approving of the plan
will become Il member of the bureau.

and commissioners of the various pas

Only
One Key
That Fits

We have found that nearlyall the
general medicines that are popular
seek first to promote appetite and
help digestion, then to apply
needed elements which almost all
ailing people require.
Probably iron is the most i'm
portant of these needed elements,
yet it is very hard to give iron so
it will do any good.
There are thousands of keys in
the. world = only one or two I'M
lock your door. So we know
of only one or two combinations
of iron that seem to do the work.
By far the most generally useful
prescription we know of is Vinol.
We mention this by name, because
we know what it is made of, how
it is made, and how wonderfully
helpful it has been in numerous
cases in this very town.
Vinol contains the medicinal
qualities of cod liver oil, iron-that-
can-be-digested, and little table
wine. 1t is pleasant to take, and
we have so much faith in it that
we will sell a bottle to anyone
suffering from loss of appetite, a
rundown condition, tendency to
colds, or to weak women and pale
children, ETC., and cheerfully give
you the money back if it does not
help you.

article contributed by Mr.. Len G. Bal

Grocery Store Pay in Small Town. +"
The article is lengthy but we'll written,
and treats the subject in an intelligent
manner, giving some pointers that will
prove valuable in keeping clean, up
to-date grocery store. A cut of Mr..
Baldwin and also the interior of the
store is given in the article and also
gives plans and arrangements, motives
and methods of advertising. The arti-
Gle is worthy reading and creditable to
the sagacity and business Judgment of
Mr.. Baldwin.
Extensive Improvements upon St.
James Episcopal church have been be-
gun. The interior will be artistically
decorated, the colors to be cream and
gold. Handsome thing and a new vel
vetcarpet will he put down. The ex-
terror of the picturesque little church
will be left untouched, as the handsome
stone walls with their clinging ivy could
not be improved upon. Services for
the present will be conducted in the
chapel. Marietta will soon be known
as town of beautiful churches, AS plans
have already been drawn Ior the remod-
cling of the Presby terrain church, which
is to be colonial in style. The Metho-
