SLIGHT CHANGE IN FEE
BILL is AGREED UPON

Many Rock Island physicians last
evening went to Moline to attend Il
meeting of the medical fraternity of
the two cities at the Windsor hotel
in that city for the purpose of con-
sidering the advisability of taking
some action upon the new fee bill in
view of the strenuous opposition that
has developed in that city against the
higher rates it is now possible for the
physicians to charge for their serv-
ices. Some of the Moline doctors
were said to have decided to go over
to the opposition and refuse to stand
by the agreement.
The meeting was well attended and
the matter was discussed from every
standpoint and it was finally decided
to stand by the new fee bill, although
Il change in the division of time was
decided upon. The minimum charge
for day calls will remain S1.5O and
that for night calls So, but the former
price will hereafter be charged from
a. m. to p. m, while the latter will
be charged from p. IN. to a. IN.
The one Moline physician who had
declared that he would not stand by
the scale was present and promised
to abide by the decIsion of the others.

A Scientific Discovery.

Kodol does for the stomach that
which it is unable to do for itself,
even when but slightly disOrdered or
overloaded. Kodol supplies the nat
ural juices of digestion and does the
work of the stomach, relaxing the
nervous tension, while the infiamed
muscles of that organ are allowed to
rest and heal. Kodol digests what
you eat and enables the stomach and
digestive organs to transform all
food into rich, red blood.

FOR ROBBING A FARMER

About o'clock last evening T. s.
Johnston, an Edgington resident, no
tilted the police that his rig had been
relieved of a single-barreled shot gun,
Il pair of horse blankets and bundle
of dry goods. He had left the outfit
standing at the corner of Seventeenth
street and Third avenue for a short
time and when he returned he found
that his goods were missing.
The police went to work on the
case and short time later Chief Oar
nell arrested William Gillapp, a resi-
dent of Shantyboat town in the west
end of the city, with the shot gun in
his possession. 1t was also learned
that he had been trying to dispose of
it.
Gillapp stoutly insisted that he had
bought the gun for 80 cents and that
he knew nothing of the other things
nor of the party from whom he got
the gun.
Magistrate johnson. however. this
morning considered the evidence of
his guilt sufficiently strong to hold
him to the grand jury in $500 bonds
for grand larceny. Of course he went
to Jail.
