IDOL SHATTERED
Local Educators Comment on the
Downfall of Prof.
Oougherty.
WELL KNOWN IN THIS CITY
Ability to Grow Rich and at Same Time
Excel in Profession Was Held
Remarkable.

| The surprise that was felt through
out the educational world over the
downfall of Supt. Dougherty of the
| Peoria public schools is shared by the
| school teachers in Rock Island, 10
many of whom Prof Dougherty is per-
sonally known and until now has been
held in the highest esteem.
County superintendent of Schools
S. j. Ferguson. speaking of
the sensational developments at
Peoria as recorded in last evenings
Argus, said, 1T seems almost incom-
prehensible that Supt. Dougherty
should be guilty of the misappropria-
ton of funds entrusted to his care. l
have always looked upon him as a mo-
del man, one of whom every one edu-
Gated in public school work should be
proud Such revelations are to be de-
plored, that much is certain. 1t is one
of thoes things that is hard TO under
stand"
Had Peculiar Genius.
Supt of Schools Hayden said. Il
have for many years regarded Supt
Dougherty as far above the average
school superintendent, not only in his
executive ability and capacity for
school discipline and government, but
to my mind he has stood out so unique,
in that he seemed TO evince the ability
which is so common a shortening to
us all in school work-the genius to
accumulate wealth. You know the av-
erage school man does not, as rule,
show up very strong in the world of
finance. and when We find one who
does we sort of look up to him as one
out of the ordinary. That is the way
Prof. Dougherty has always struck me.
But as it comes TO pass that he has ac-
quired his riches through illegitimate
channels, perhaps the rest of us will
conclude that we are just as well off
in plOdding along at the same old
grind. It's another idol shattered, that
is ALL"

A man named Vincent, of Peoria
was held under $500 bond last night
by Justice Johnson, on a state warrant
for conspiracy. The complaint was
made by William Alrich, Of Eureka
Ill, who, it seems. alleges that he was
cleverly swindled out OF $3.50. and was
being worked for that much more. Al.
rich recently answered an advertise
ment in a Peoria PAPER. and as result
paid w. II. Barton. formerly of this
city, $3.50 for half interest in a res
taurant here. He was not satisfied. and
Barton offered 10 sell him half inter

AlriCh stayed at the Peoria res
taurant week. and finally young Vim
cent made a proposition 10 sell half
interest in that property, and a half
interest in the fixtures of the Rock
Island place. for another $3.50. Alrich
Unexpectedly came To Rock Island and
while here made discoveries. He Sc
cured an attorney and armed with a

F. + Reynolds made the arrest. John
Looney prosecuted for the states at

for Vincent. Efforts are now being
made To- secure Barton on a Ike
charge. as the half interest he sold
here was on an alleged false bill of
sale.
