Team Owned by George E. croweIl In a
Colllsion-Horse Ran Away and was
Cut and Bruised.
One of G. E. Crowelrs horses, driven
by o. II. Stickney, was badly cut and
bruised by being struck by Charles F.
Browns automobile on Western avenue
Wednesday evening about S o'clock. The
accident occurred near Hermon +. Eddys
home, the headlight of an electric car
confusing the automobile driver so that
he could not avoid hitting the team. The
horse ran away and closed the episode
by falling and making a sensational slide
in front of T.. c. Crosby's house. Mr..
Browns version of the accident was that
he was going toward West Brattleboro
at moderate rate and was on the right
side of the road. The headlight sud-
denly flashed upon him and blinded MIN
so that he could not see and the next
moment he struck the morse. The driver
claims that he was on the right side of
the street and that the automobile
swerved across and struck the team
The horse was thrown completely over,
landing on its back and kicking vigor-
ously in the wreck of the harness. When
freed from the entanglements it scram-
bled to its feet and ran away. The
wagon was somewhat wrecked and the
automobile lost a lamp, had strained
radiator and sustained damage to the
leather hood. Occupants of the vehicles
were not hurt. The horse was taken to
Henry Aliens stable after 1t fell and
was found to be badly cut and bruised.
One knee was so badly cut that II was
reared that the animal would not regain
use OF it.

A NATION OF CRIPPLES
Rheumatism Beyond Control
The Only Hope to Rheumatic Sufferers Is
Urlc-O Treatment


If rheumatism continues to spread as 1t
has in the past few years, 1t would seem
as though we would beore long become a
nation of cripples. The terrible desuuc-
tiveness of this disease is apparent on
every side of us. Almost nine out OF ten
of the cripples one meets had their af-
Fiction brought on by Rheumatism. How
many thousands more there are that are
hopeessly bed-ridden and whom we never
see. Rheumatism, from the very nature
of the disease, can never cure itself and
If neglected is bound to grow worse then
better If you ever have any twinges OF
Rheumatism go to your druggist and get
a bottle of Uric-O, the wonderful new
Rheumatic Specific. 1t will cure you and
1t is the only treatment in the world that
will cure you permanently and thoroughly.
Uric-O cures by its direct action on the
muscles, blood and kidneys. 1t seeks out
the poisonous Uric and Rheumatic Acid
and drives ii from the system and IL ID
only a treatment Of such nature that
will ever cure Rheumatism. Liniments
and plasters only serve to drive 1t from
one spot to another. They never cure
Rheumatism, because 1t Is primarily a
blood disease, and until the blood Is clear
ed from the poison, cure cannot take
There never was a case of Rheumatism
that Uric-O could not cure and you should
not put off taking it. You can test Urtc-O
free of charge If you wish. Just cut out
this advertisement and send It to the
Smith Drug Co., 1863 Smith Building, Syr-
acuse NJ ", together with your name
and the name Of your druggist, and state
that you have never used Urtc-O and
would like to try it. They win give you
free, through your druggist, a 70 cent
bottle, which you can test and try to
your own satisfaction.
Uric-O is sold and personally recon-
mended in Brattleboro by c. e. GRAHAM.

In the last issue of the Rock Island
Employees magazine, one of the roads
establishments now located in Daven-
Island. is described. This is the laun-
dry and dining car service headquar-
tiers, which are to be installed in a
new building acquired this fall on
Fifth avenue near the depot
The magazine editor has the follow
ing of the institution and its super
vision:
"At Davenport is located the head
quarters of one of the most important
departments of the railroad, which,
while it makes itself almost as much
in evidence with the travelling public
as any other department, employs less
than $50 persons. 1t is the dining car
department, and for quarter of a
century Frank Stewart, superintendent
of dining cars, has presided over the
dining car organization, the reputation
of which among travellers has been
enviable. Mr. Stewart directs this Or
ganiZation from his Office in what was
once a residence of the better class
in the early days of Davenport. The
property passed into the hands of the
Rock Island many years ago, and is
now used as a storehouse for the foods
supplied to the dining cars. Nearby
is another building fitted up for the
proper care of the various kinds OF
meats that are used on the cars
About block away, in another former
residence property, is located the laun
dry, where all the table linen and
jackets used by the walters and cooks
are washed and ironed. Adjoining
the laundry is another residence used
for the clerical forces of the dining
car department.
I The present facilities are not the
most convenient, and plans have beer
made for a new home for the depart
ment. The land has already been pur
chased on which a new building is t
be erected which will provide up-to
| date facilities for handling al
branches of the work of the depart

Bucktown in Mourning.-Bucktown
is thing of the past. No more do the
shining red lights lead the stranger
and the amusement seeker to this end
of town. The clamping of the lid
has silenced the gaiety of its inhabi-
tants and the cry, lights out at 10 has
put crimp into the business affairs
of Bucktown which in time threaten
to terminate its existence. No better
atteStation of the fact that Bucktown
is dead and that its residents have en-
tered an unnatural sleep, is needed
than the mere statement that Brick S
pavilion is closed. No more are
amusement lovers allowed to congre-
gate here and dance and make merry
to the strains of the enlivening music
which has made Bricks place famous
throughout the entire middle west
Probably no place in Davenport in
years past has been such a rendezvous
for strangers as Bricks pavilion and
Sall Bucktown is in mourning over its
closing

in a towel and covered with a news
paper bearing the date Of Dec. II
The leg was cut off at the knee and
was buried a short distance below the
surface. The sexton at Paramount
cemetery claims to know nothing OF
how it came there. The limb which
is that of man, was taken to Runge's

Islands Climate Bad.-Mrs. Arthur
Pacheco, formerly Miss Ella Hyde
who married Spanish interpreter, has
returned to Davenport from Porto Rice
where she and her husband have beer
residing for the past year and states
that it was necessary for them to give
up their residence on the island or
account of the unhealthy climate
She says there are opportunities fol
the American on the little island. anC
that those who have gone there have
been fortunate, but there is one grea

trainmen on the Rock Island road eX-
pect orders will soon be issued calling
on them to make their homes in Sill
Wis. The report is out that the Off
Gals of the system are more deter
mined than ever to concentrate their
interests at Silvis, and the first order
that is expected is that trainmen who
reside within convenient calling dis
lance will always be given the prefer
ence This will mean that the men
who reside in Silvis will get first calls
out The effect of the order, the Off
Gals hope, will be to prompt the men
to reside in Silvis. This point is the
terminal for four divisions, the Illi-
nois, Cedar Rapids, Iowa and South
