| Davenport July Tilted by his
sweetheart in Germany. j. II. Halkins
came to this country from Germany
| before the war as a young man. he
| built a little book binoery in South
Rock Island on two and half acres OF
land in South Rock Island township, at
the intersection Of the Rock Island and
Moline boundary lines near the old
Darling farm, and there lived a recluse
until his death last winter His ro-
nance was revealed in his will probated
Saturday by his attorney. w. j. Entri-
kin.
The girl who refused to marry him
years ago never married. When the
young man fled to America to bury
himself in the wilds of the new world
the girl evidently repea;ed of her ac-
ton. A few years ago she asked a
friend who was writing 10 give her re
CARDS" to Halkins and say that she
had never married.
Hakins died in January and by the
will left all his property to his nephew.
Louis Siegfriedt of Davenport. The
ground he owned was bought by Fred
Scherer for $1,000, the price being the
highest ever paid for uniinproved prop
erty in the county. 1852 an acre. The
money, less sS10.16, mortgage and in
terest. has been paid to the nephew.
and Mr. Entrikin will forward the pa
pers to Germany.

electric storm struck Fonda about mid
night. Considerable damage was done
TO orchards and crops. Corn was laid

believed that corn, not broken, VIII
straighten UP again. Many trees were
blown down and the streets today are
covered with broken limbs and trees.
The lightning struck houses and some
stock was killed. The Iowa Central
depot was struck, also the residence OF
n. G. Moves. People were quite gem
orally frightened and many spent the
greater portion of the night in caves.
For over an hour there was continuous
thunder and lightning. The storm was
expected as yesterday was extremely
hot and sultry.

COULDN'T GO TO WORK.
Frankeski Had Government Job
But Wasn't Naturalized.

Davenport July IA most patheuc
case came to the county officials yes
terday when f. Frankeski applied TO
the county clerk for naturalization pa
pers. stating that he could not go TO
work unless he secured them and that
he had no money TO 1--we unless he
found employment.
AS the district court is not in ses-
sion at the present time the papers
could not be issued anu as the man
heard the words that barred him from
employment the great tears rolled from
his eyes and he broke down ana crleu
like child
Frankeski came here from st. Louis
and was to so TO work on the island as
a harnessnaker He stated shat he had
never done anything else in his life and
that he didn't know how TO do anything
else.
/: Some time ago he wrote and asked
for work and was informed that ne
could come and go to work Immediately
IL he was a citizen of the United States
IN good standing.
Frankski has taken out his first pa
pers. but not his second, but as he
thought the first ones were sufficlent
ne Immediately came on with his VIE
and went to the island Monday. 1t Is
against the rules of the civil service
law TO employ any one who is not fully
naturalized. however and Frankeski
was told that he must secure the sec
ond papers before he could go TO work.
He came to the court house yesterday
morning, expecting that he could be
fixed out and be able TO go to work In
the afternoon. The law states that the
second papers can not be issued, now
ever only when court is in session, and
this will not be until next September
He will have TO wait two full months
before he can secure his papers here
and in the meantime the man doesn
know what to do to make living.
The law in the matter is being thoE-
oughly looked up by the island officials
and those interested in the case here
and some way may be found to ohvi-
ate the difficulty If not he may be
sent to some other county where court
ia in session so that he can secure the
necessary papers.
