FRUIT PASSED THROUGH
PAST WINTER SAFELY
local Nurserymen Holds Prospect,
Save in Peaches, Good For
This Years Crop.

y local nurseryman who is in posi-
ton to judge the facts accurately gives
the following statement in regard to
the effect of the past winter upon
fruit in this locality:
THE prospect for fruit in this To-
cality the coming season is quite fav-
orable. The severe weather condi-
lions during the greater part of Feb
ruary did little damage to the general
crop, aside from the peach, which was
killed all through the state. General
ly, the peach threes themselves show
little injury, those that sustained in
jury last season being most affected
THE fall was an ideal one for ripen-
ing up of all classes of fruit trees and
plants, which, with the snow covering
we had during the severe weather.
makes conditions favorable to the fruit
resisting adverse weather conditions.
Fruit trees of all kinds, and especially
apple, cherry and plum thees, carried
a good foliage during the fall thus en-
aiding them TO form abundant fruit
buds for this seasons crop. Cherries
are especially promising.
Small fruit plants that often are
injured at the roots from severe freez-
ing, are in good condition. owing to
the snow covering during the entire
cold weather.

,ernetrated in Moline occnrred Satur-

perpetrated in Moline occurred Satur-
day between 1890 and / o'clock, when
someone entered the jewelry store of
e. ]. Severance, 1872 Fifth avenue, and
as near as can be ascertained by the
proprietor took nine gold watches that
were hanging on a rack in the front
window. Whoever robbed the place
must have been watching very closely
the movements of Mr.. Severance and
saw him leave the store. He went to
Heimbeck's drug store and was per
haps away from mis- place of business
10 to 20 minutes. At first when he re-
turned he did not miss the watches I'M
til he went to the work bench. He look
ed around the place and found that the
thief had entered through the rear door
and departed the same way. Nothing
else in the store was molested and at
that time the safe contained quite a
sum of money. The police are working
upon the case, but they have very little
clue to work upon.

Boy on Fender.

4-year-old lad named McDermOtt.
just from Muscatine with his parents,
was snatched from death by the fender
on a Third avenue electric car Friday.
The father had stepped into the Peters,
Day & Co. store to get certain direc-
lions. Mrs. McDermott was on the
other side of the avenue holding an in
FAINT in her arms. The boy started to
run to her, unmindful of the approach
ing car. The motorman did not see
him, a wagon in front of the Mey sa-
loon cutting off his view. But he did
see him in time to set his fender 1t
scooped up the little lad, who proceed
ed at once to wriggle off. But the car
was stopped within half a car length
and the boy was not hurt

INVESTIGATING THE PAST
ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE
sansamon County States Attorney Act
ing independent of Conner
ford Charges.

An Independent investigation into
the conduct of the members of the last
general assembly is being made by
States Attorney Frank Hatch, of
Springfield, an investigation independ-
ent of COmerford and not on any line
suggested by him. Where the special
officers of the prosecutors are working
who they are and what they are doing
has been kept so secret and so well
guarded that no trace of them can be
found anywhere, says the Springfield
News. They have completely covered
their tracks. 1t is not known on whose
track these men are now working. Mr.
Hatch has even refused to affirm or
deny that such an investigation is be
ing made. He has admitted that the
grand jury will be asked to look into
the Comerford charges. Mr.. Conner
ford will be given every opportunity to
present his evidence, but it is not at
all likely that he will serve the public
in any official capacity, such as assist
ant prosecutor. as he proposed to Mr.
Hatch he should.

superficial The cut just below the

GROWING UP

There's something the mat
ter with the child that fails
to grow up. A child that
grows up too much, however,
without proper filling out of
flesh, is almost as badly off.
Nothing will help these pale,
thin weedy" children like
SCOTS Emulsion. 1t supplies
the rounding out of flesh and
the rich inward nourishmene
of blood and vital organs
which insures rapid growth a

ment.

MAY Not Guild.

The possibility exists that the Moline
Pillow company will not build the spa
cious warehouse planned for their
Kansas City property, which they Sc
cured in a trade with the Burlington
railroad at that point. 1t had been
definitely decided some weeks ago and
announcement to this effect was made
by President G. A. Stephens, but con-
tingencies have arisen which may yet
delay the construction till 1906. In the
event that this work is temporarily
abandoned, it is quite probable that
the company will develop their prop
erty at Winnipeg and erect ware
house for that distributing point.

placed his bond at $500. The evidence
showed that "Sappy' had sold the

shown at the trial that "Sappy" had
