Expect Pastor to Accept.

Word has been received from the
Rev. Detlof Lofstrom of McKeesport
Pa, by the members of the Swedish
Baptist church, to whom an invitation
was extended some time ago as a sue
cessor to the Rev. J. A. Jader, recent
ly resigned from the pastorate of the
local church. In the letter Rev. LOT
strom did not say that he would accept
the pastorate offered him, nor did he
say that he would not come to Moline.
He wrote a very nice letter to the
church and was very much pleased
with the offer to come here. Although
no definite answer was received the
members feel certain that he will come
TO the Plow City and they expect to
receive a letter of acceptance from
him at any time. Mr.. LoftStrOm is high
" recommended to the church. He
attended the Morgan Park high school
and the Chicago university and should
he accept the call extended to him the
Swedish Baptists will be very forum
ate in securing him.

Taylor Ridge and Edgington. l have
seen birds at all of these places the
last season. They are quite tame
since they have been protected by the
game law. There is closed season
on chicken for two years yet.
Now, why are SO many of these
birds staying with us? Is it because
of the mild weather or the protection
they have from the game laws? Song
birds are also protected all the time
and the quail season is open for but
40 days. Since the fox squirrels have
been protected they are growing plen.

than there ever was before in this

NEW SCHEME TO KEEP
TRACK OF Q ENGINES
Robert Rice's Invention in Use in
Dispatchers Office of Gales
burg Division.

At the c., B. & Q. dispatcher's Office
has been introduced, says the Gales
burg Republican-RegiSter, a new board
for the purpose of locating freight
engines in the Galesburg division
which will prove of great assistance
to the local officials and also mean
saving of time to the dispatchers.
The method is something new and
its value is in its simplicity. 1t is
the work of Assistant Division SUI
perintendent Robert Rice, who has
been working on it for some time. BY
glance the officials and clerks can
tell the exact location of every freight
engine, with the exception of way
freights. in the division and the class
of the engine
The board is but about four feet
square and near the center in a cir
Gle representing Galesburg, in which
all the freight engines are shown by
pegs-red pegs standing for RI en-
gines, blue for RS engines, black for
D4 engines and green for II K. and
A class engines.
From the central point extend lines
representing the different branches
coming into Galesburg. and at the
terminal points of these branches are
other circles, representing Savanna,
Rock Island, Ottumwa. Burlington,
Quincy, Rushville, Peoria, Aurora and
Chicago. When an engine is at either
one of these terminal points the loca-
ton of the pin gives it's exact loca-
ton.
Engines leaving Galesburg are rep
resented by pins put to the right of
the lines and engines coming toward
Galesburg are shown by pins on the
right hand side of the line looking
toward Galesburg. All engines west
of Burlington or east of Gearing are
shown as being at the terminal points.
The pins representing the location
of the engines are put in place by
the respective train dispatchers.

years. He seems to have remained
single. as he was in 1892 or '93 when
he visited the Fatherland- He is de-
scribed at that time as rather tall,
wearing a long white beard, and of a
very dignified and serious department.
He mentioned then that he had lived
in Chicago and at Davenport. At that
time, however. he described his home
as "a large manufacturing town by d
sea. with water power from cataracts,

kinds of remedies that could think of,
but nothing seemed to help; in fact, it
grew worse. Her hair fell out where
the sore was, and feared it would never
grow again. 1t continued until my aged
father came on q visit, and when he
saw the baby he told me to get Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment right away.
"To please him did so, and to my
surprise by their use the sore began to
heal over, the hair grew over 1t, and
to-day she has q nice head OF hair, her
