MOLINE MENTION.

/ Leaves Rather Observation-Disclosures
c. Whitehead, piano salesman who has
been in the employ of A. c. Woodyatt
only week or two, has apparently
shaken Moline dust from his heels
without even bidding anybody good
| bye. Mr.. Woodyatt sent him to Cen
eseo about a week ago to sell some
pianos and collect some bills, telling
him to report to his brother in that
| town, but nothing has been seen of
| him since Mr.. Whitehead was for
merly employed by the Griggs Music
house of Moline and changed from
| there to Woodyatt's only recently. 1t
| is not thought that he took any more
| money than he received when his sal
airy was paid him the night before his
| departure, but he left a few bills I'M
paid which have been presented to the
| music house since the news of his de-
parture has been spread about. Mr.
Woodyatt did not suspect the man of
dishonesty and SO far as he knows at
present he did not misappropriate any
funds

Arm Badly Broken.-George Nichol,
who is employed in the machine de-
partment of the railroad shops at Sill
Wis, is nursing a serious broken arm.
and while it is a painful injury, he is
fortunate to be living at all. The right
arm is broken between the shoulder
and elbow and the two bones below
the elbow are also broken. George
had stopped the shear cutting machine
he was operating to change the shear
knife. To prevent the machine from
being placed in motion while he was
changing the knife, he took a heavy
bolt and placed it between the spokes
of the heavy fly wheel. However,
when he had completed the change and
was ready to start the machine in mo-
ton again, he forgot about the bolt,
and naturally when the wheel revolved
the bolt was thrown with great force.
Georges arm was in its direct path
and the bones were broken as a result

and who is endeavoring to raise the
funds to establish the bathing beach.
DIR. Meyer yesterday visited several
citizens and 500 was donated in a
short time and he does not now antici-
pate any trouble in raising the $500l
with which to build the bathing house
and beach
