and asked Barry to stop. Barry let
the boy go and started on ONeal.
The first thing he did was to grab
O'Neal's four-in-hand tie and pull it

He could not unite it. O'Neal fought
himself away and struck Barry sew

O'Neal will swear out a complaint

The foreman at the mill told Officer
Thompson that O'Neal should not
have been arrested and that he did
just what any man would do under

MOLINE MENTION,
PonuIatjon Now 25,o61.

Moline has been growing in the last
three years, and figures compiled by
H. y. Stone & Co. prove the facts.
That company has just completed the
canvass of the city and by using the
common multiple Moline now has a
population of 25,061 and East Moline
population of 1859. In 1901, the
last Stone directory published, gave
Moline a population upwards of 10000
people, so that in the last three years
Moline has gained 5000 people. The
United States census, taken in 1900,
shows that Moline's population was
then only 1928, but since that time
several large concerns have located
here which has raised the population
figures so materially. The establish
ment of the small al ms plaut on the
arsenal and the great railroad shops
added another thousand - the popu-
lation in the past II months.

BOBBY SORENSON THE
son OF A MINISTER
Remains Are Buried in His Family Lot
at Sycamore, in This
State.

The Sycamore QlL) Republican pub
fishes the following concerning the
death and burial of Robert G. SOren-
sen. who died after an illness at Nor
bonia hospital, Davenport, a week ago,
and whose body was taken to Syca-
more. ILL.,, for interment. 1t appears
that he had history never even sus-
pected of by his friends in this city:
The remains of Robert SOrensen
were brought from Davenport, Iowa, to
Sycamore Friday afternoon. and were
inferred in the family lot in Elmwood
cemetery
Although it is more than a quarter
of a century since he was a resident
of Sycamore, many remember 'Rolly'
Sorensen-tiny of stature, but bright
of mind-and a very entertaining child.
His father, Rev NJ. F. Sorensen, was
rector of St. Peters church. They re
sided on East State street. Two of
the children and the mother died here
within a very few weeks. Upon the
completion of the present Episcopal
rectory they were the first 10 occupy
it. Mr.. Sorensen afterwards married
MISS III uSliliidll, SlSltl vi MIS-. ADDlt
l. Waterman, the donor of Waterman
hall. Both Mr.. Sorensen and his sec
0nd wife are now dead, and their re-
mains, with those of the children, are
all in ElmwoOd cemetery, where a
handsome granite monument was erect
ed a few years ago by Mrs. Starr, sister
of Mrs. SOrensen.
Robert SOrensen was about 40
years of age. He was a printer, and
acted as news agent on railway trains,
and had variously been employed from
the coast to Omaha. in which latter
place he lived for many years. His
brother, Albert Sorensen, is prominent
n the newspaper world. He is we'll
