Curious Mode of Catching Turtles.
A curious mode of catching turtles
is practiced in the West Indies. 1t
consists in attaching a ring and line
to the tail of species of sucker fish
known as the remora. The live fish is
then thrown overheard and Immediate
ly makes for the first turtle he can
spy, to which he attaches himself very
firmly by means of a sucking appa-
ratus arranged at the top of his head.
Once attached to the turtle, so firm is
his grip that the fisherman on drawing
the line brings home both turtle and
the sucker.

DAVENPORT DOTS

A trick that came near costing the
Muhs Bros. Clothing company val
liable overcoat was worked by very
smooth CRATER Saturday night and
had it not been for the efficiency of
the police force the man would prob
ably have made his escape. The bold
burglar who gave the name of Peter
Dillon came Into the store about 8
o'clock and wanted to buy an over
coat. He looked over the stock of
goods and finally picked out nice
black one that bore the price mark of
$3.50. Dillon liked the coat and it
fitted him to T, but he thought the
price was too high. Finally he got
the clerk to go to the proprietor and
try to get reduction from the $16.5O
and while the clerk was gone man
and coat disappeared. Mr.. Clerk was
gone about five minutes and when he
came back there was no man in sight.
He looked high and low and finally it
occurred to him to look for the coat
and he found that this had disappear
ed also. Then he summoned the po-
lice and in IA minute an officer went
on the trail of the fugitive. Dillon
was caught few minutes later leis-
urely strolling down the street.

RURAL TELEPHONE BRINGS
AID TO sTUMPED TRAIN

Passengers and trainmen on the
Rock Island Rocky Mountain Limited
were indebted Monday to the use of
farmers telephone for their arrival in
Rock Island, although they were an
hour and a half later than the sched-
ule time. About two miles east of
Ladora on the Rock Island, the train
was the victim of an accident which
would have compelled long wait had
it not been for the encroachment of
modern science in the form of a rural
telephone route through the aid of
which assistance was summoned and
the train brought to the division ter
minal with Il loss of very little time.
a part of the engines mechanism
known as the eccentric broke, and the
huge locomotive refused to pull any
further. The train men were desper-
ate, but could do nothing to remedy
the evil until Conductor Nicholas
dropped off from the rear plat orm
and surveyed the situation. He ar
rived at the conclusion that the only
thing to be done was to walk back to
Ladora, where he could telegraph to
Marengo for an extra engine and thus
get TO Rock Island, the terminal of
the division. He was about to begin
his trip back TO the station when upon
passing a farmers residence he es-
pied a set of telephone wires con-
nected Herewith, and upon inquiring
learned that he could gain the desired
connection with Ladora by the use of
the rural phone. At once making
use of the lucky find he gave instruc-
tiCn to the agent at Ladora, who in
turn wired to the master mechanic at
Marengo, who Immediately sent the
desired assistance.
The regular engine was sidetraclled
at Ladora. and the freight engine
which was brought to the rescue in
charge of Engineer Pratt. was coup
led to the fast train and the belated
passengers brought to Rock Island,
where they arrived an hour and half
late, but still in the ring. As the
train was that late when leaving the
scene of the breakdown it will be seen
that Engineer Pratt did Il very com
mendable "stunt" in getting the heavy
train to Rock Island on time.
