THREE COME TO TOWN
TO WE'D THE SAME GIRL

Three men seeking the same young
woman to make her their bride ar
rived in Mineral, ILL.,, yesterday, being
attracted to that city through mat
rimonial advertisement of Miss Myra
Miller. Henry Forbes, ranchman of
eastern Kansas, arrived first, and this
was followed by the arrival of John
Davis, of Franklin county, Mo-, and
George Yost, of western Iowa.
The would-be grooms stopped at
the same hotel and began comparing
notes and discovered that they were
all on the same mission, but they
were dumfounded when they found
all were seeking the same girl. They
called at the home of Miss Miller in n
body. vented their wrath on her for
her unfaithfulness, and departed VOW
ing they would have nothing further
to do with her.
1t is stated that each of the pros
pective bridegrooms purchased her a
silk wedding gown, gave her jewelry
and some money. She is Il handsome
young woman and is clever.

COMMITTEES ON PUBLIC
MUSEUM SHOULD BE NAMED

The preservation for the public use
and enjoyment of the collection of
curios and specimens of value to sci
ence, left by the late Richard Man
sill. is Il matter that might well be
taken up by any Of the organizations
of Il public nature in the city. The
city council, the Rock Island Club
and the Retail Merchants association
should appoint committees to make
an investigation of the matter, and
learn what means it is possible to en-
ploy to place the collection on eN-
hibition where it will be accessible
to those interested in science. Doubt
less the board of education
and Augustana college would be
willing to cooperate, and the Long
view Park association might be called
into the consultation. Such an OPP
portunity to establish a public muse
um will probably not again be thrown
in the way Of the people of Rock ISL
and in many years.

Substitutes for Coal.

Necessity is the surest promoter of
invention. The recent coal strike
causing the prices to advance to al
most beyond reach has resulted in the
granting of over 1000 patents on ma
chimes to burn either oil or gas. The
necessity for a family medicine that
could be relied on absolutely in cases
of stomach, liver and kidney ailments
led to the introduction of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters Sc years ago. Today
it is world famed as cure for loss of
appetite, insomnia, nervousness, Hat
ulency, Indigestion, dyspepsia, consti-
patton and biliousness. Try a bottle
and be convinced of its value. 1t con-
tains nothing that will injure the
most delicate system, and is therefore
specially adapted for restoring
strength to those who have become
weak from long sickness or those in
need of n tonic. Don't accept sub
stitute.

STATE INSPECTOR HERE
TO SEE MINE MACHINERY

And now the state boiler inspector
has appeared on the scene to add to
the trials of some of the coal dealers
and consumers of the city. The an
nouncement was made this morning
that the mines of the Coal Valley Min
ing company will be closed Saturday
in order to allow the Inspector to
look over the machinery. This Will
reduce the output by about twenty
cars, and will give this city about
three cars less for general cOnsump-
ton The dealers are inclined TO
think that the inspectors might make
"A Sunday job of it or else put off the
inspection till warmer weather.

CATCHES FOOTPAD
Martin DanieIson Further Dis
tinguishes Himself
i'm West.
GOES TO RESCUE
Who Had Been Relieved Of Her
Purse Containing
$40.

Martin Danielson, the Rock Island
soldier, figured in the sensational
capture Of a negro footpad in San
Francisco recently. The San Fran
cisco Examiner tells the story as fol-
lows:
while walking home from her
work last night, Miss Madge Rust. a
pretty young woman employed in the
Parrott building, was robbed by Il
negro on Suffer street, between Pow
ell and Mason.
"The duslly footpad snatched a
purse from the girls hand and ran
down Mason street toward Post.
Martin DanieIson and Jessie Beau,
two young men of the Preside hos
pitaI corps. who had witnessed the
robbery, started in pursuit and shout
ed stop. thief" Hearing the cry and
seeing the fleeing negro. several men
joined Danielson and Beau in the
chase. and as the robber turned up
Post street toward Taylor he was
closely pursued.
Seeing that capture was emminent
before he could reach the next corner,
he dropped the purse and entered Il
building in the middle of the block,
where he was caught by DanielsOn
and Beau. They turned him over to
Policeman c. f. FennelI, who at the
moment arrived at the scene.
"When booked on a charge of grand
larceny at the city prison the negro
gave mis- name as Edward Boyd. but
from papers in his possession it is
believed that his real name is Ernest
Best. and that he was dishonorably
discharged from Company NJ, 9th cav
airy. The purse which he had thrown
away was picked up by Danielson
and Beau. and is held as evidence
against him. The purse contained
$500.
Miss Rust Tells Her Story.
Miss Rust. who lives at $50 Bush
street, said: i was kept somewhat
later than usual at my work tonight
and it was about $40 o'clock as
walked up Suffer street, between
Powell and Mason. | had Just re
placed my watch. after noting the
time, when big negro suddenly APP
peared and snatched the purse from
my hand. He ran down Suffer tC
Mason. and almost without knowing
what | was doing l threw ut him a
bottle of medicine, which | had been
carrying in my other hand. The
young men who were coming toward
me observed the Negroes actions, and
when | told them | had been robbed
they started after the negro and cap
tured him on Post street just as an
officer came up.
''The police consider the capture
important. They believe the negro
has been engaged in dishonest work
for some time"
