SPICY CASE IS ON
Miss Maud KnoWIton, of Moline,
Prosecuting Clyde w.
Wood.
CHILD IS BORN TO HER
Letters Written by Young Man are
Read in Court-Girl
Tells Story.

Miss Maude Knowlton, aged II, of
Moline, is chief witness in a criminal
proceeding against Clyde w. Wood,
also of that city, in hearing before
jury in the county court.
The girl became the mother of a
child last September. She states that
Wood is the father. Wood protests
that he is not.
The case appears to have been given
wide publicity through neighborhood
gossip, for the court room was filled
with curious men and women from
Moline when the taking of testimony
was begun.
The girl. bright and rather pretty,
was on the stand all morning, re-
viewing in detail her relations with
Wood, whom she expected to marry
her when he was made acquainted
with her condition.
But he baked, she said. and ceased
his attentions to her, avoiding her on
all occasions.
Letters Read to Jury.
Letters written by Wood were in
troduced to show that he entertained
affection for the girl before matters
took serious turn. The epistles con-
tanned some spicy passages that, judg-
ing from the smokers and smiles
among the spectators, repaid them
for their journey from Moline.
Wood is % years of age. He is well
connected in Moline. His father is
with him in court Miss knowlton's
mother is by her side.
States Attorney II. \. Weld is pros
ecuting and G. w. Wood, of Moline,
and c. j. Searle, of this city, are de-
Tending young Wood.
The jury is composed of Guy Darl-
ing. AXel Sorting, Henry Dierlls, c. A.
Miller, Jr., William Gahagen, Charles
Gantert, George Steelman, f. a. Leith-
ner. Dan Oberg, Bernhard Seeburger,
John O'Connor and George Hagen.

TO CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS

Its pretty nearly the open sea-

Ter. women are the victims of those
fellows, who reap their harvest during
the holiday season. The fashion of
wearing purse dangling to the wrist
or belt, is tempting fate. l want to
give Rock Island women few words
of advice:
when one of those fellows attacks
you, scream-scream as loud and as
often as you can.
Kick him, bite him, scratch him,
pull his hair, or, better yet, stab him
with your hat pin. o.
IF he is arrested. prosecute him.
Thieves are bolder after one woman
refuses to appear in court.
Don't dangle a purse from your
wrist or waist.
Don't carry it in your hand.
Don't wear watch pinned to
your coat.
Don't wear your jeweiry where it
is conspicuous.
Don't get frightened-tho thieves
are all towards.

man was ever born who could find a
woman's pocket
Garry an umbrella with a sharp
ferrule. 1t makes dandy weapon.
Don't carry much money when
shopping in the holiday season. If
you do, don't carryeit al an exposed
purse. The stocking isn't as poetical
as the purse, but it's a deal safer.
Follow this advice and you will not
be held up"
