Safe Blowers at Princeton.

Expert safe blowers made good
haul yesterday morning in the town of
Princeton. some Is miles above Dav

prits entered the general merchandise
store of l.. l.. Reese & Son and blew
open the safe, after which they Sc

$500 and make good their escape. The
deed is supposed 10 have been perpe-
trated at about , o'clock. AT that
time several of the residents near the
scene of the burglary were startled
by a muffled sound which they were
unable TO account for at the time but
which they are now convinced was the
result of the explosion. The mann
moth safe was drilled and nitro-gly-
cerin inserted into the lock, after
which the discharge was made. The
force of the explosion blew off the
safe door and lodged it some four feet
from the main portion of the safe. The
work was undoubtedly that of experts
and during Tuesday two suspicious
looking men were seen about the place.
They are supposed to be the guilty
parties but have evidently succeeded
in making good their escape. Only

EormaIin in Milk.

The most interesting feature of the
session of the board of health was the
report presented by City BacteriolO-
gist DR.. W. A. Stocks concerning the
analysis of water samples and milk.
The most startling thing in his report
was the statement that out of 5S sam
pies of milk analysed seven of them
were found TO contain fOrmalin. and
six others were suspicious. AS the
state law provides a penalty for the
adding of anything whatever, even
water to milk, there is likely to be
some prosecutions shortly undertaken
by the state dairy inspector assisted
by City Attorney Henry Thuenen. DR.
Stocks said that it is serious to al
low adulterated milk to be sold in the
city as it was deadly 10 babes, the for
malin having a deleterious effect upon
the stOmachs of the infants. OF sam
pies of water the doctor analysed
seven, ali from wells in the city save
one. which was taken from Isaac
Klein's residence at 1919 Brady street
and labeled "1219-B." This was from
a faucet of the Davenport Water COM
pany and in his report DIR. Stocks
stated that he found it contaminated
with intestinal contents.

Crushed to Death in Sewer.

Tuesday afternoon Christian Ben
necke. a Dane, aged CO years lost his
life in a 12-foot sewer trench on Thir-
teenth and Scott streets. by the cav
ing in of the sides of the excavation
upon him. crushing his life out, and
completely burying him. The ambul-
ance was hurriedly summoned, and
willing workmen began the task of
exhuming the unfortunate man. 1t
required a quarter of an hour to re-
move the earth from where Bennecke
lay. and when he was lifted from the
trench not a spark of life remained in
his body. That crushing. rather than
the suffocation, caused his death. was
shown when physicians tried to re-
store respiration by moving the arms
up and down, there was heard a
crunching sound. showing that the
mans chest had been crushed, and
that death had resulted instantly.

Big Shops Well Watched.

East MOline'S mammoth railroad
shops will be under constant surveil-
lance of a force of watchmen and the
additional oversight of day and night
watchers here in Moline as a precau-
ton against fire and depreciation. The
new system of alarm boxes has just
been completed and will soon be in
augurated by the police department at
East Moline shops in conjunction with
the Western Union Office in this city.
Thirty-three fire and alarm signal
boxes are placed in various parts of
the great shops all on a circuit con-
nected with the tape marker at the
Western Union Office in Moline. They
are for use during the night and after
work has stopped at the shops. Watch
men make the rounds and turn in calls
from these boxes every 10 minutes,
just as they ring in on the watchmen's
clocks at the factories here. Instead
of the clock these men turn key in
the boxes and the report is registered
at the telegraph office. A leeway of
five minutes is allowed. but if any box
fails to be reported after that over
time elapses. the man on watch at
the Moline office at once calls up the
police department at the shops over a
private telephone line and a man is
Immediately dispatched to see what is
the matter at the box and to find out
what has become of the Waterman.

Periured Himself.

The most sensational paper filed in
the Scott county district court for
long time was that which Attorney l..
G. Susemihl handed to Clerk Moth
yesterday, and which was duly made
part of the growing record in the $751;
600 damage suit of \. P. Huggard VS..
the Glucose Sugar Refining company.
In this paper a Davenport attorney,
of excellent standing, is
charged with purchasing evidence.
while one of the principal witnesses at
the recent trial of the case deposes
that he did so for pay. and that his
story was false from beginning to
end; in short that he perjured himself
a crime which he specifically admits,
in a signed statement. y. d. Ely, the
charged with misconduct in
the case, is at present absent from
the city.

THE NEWS OF 0CILLA.

Ocilla, Ca, April bids were open
ed yesterday by the City Council for
the erection of an eleven-room school
building, and the contract was award
ed for $40, 450. The site is a plat of
five acres, near the center of town.
A committee has been appointed by
the Council to secure plans and speci-
fications for an electric light plant to
be put in as soon as details of the
plant and contractor can be secured
at a cost of about $4,000.
The three-story bank building erect
ed by the Peoples Bank has just been
completed, and the bank offices, stores
and other offices on the second floor
and Masonic and Knights of Pythias
halls on the third floor are all being
filled up and occupied.
The telephone line from this place
to Fitzgerald is about completed. The
grading and laying of track on the
Ocilla and Valdosta Railroad has ex
tended out several miles from this
place, and contract let for building
several miles more at once. This new
line of road from Valdosta to McRae
will be a boon to this section, and we
hail it's early completion.
