The Knockout Blow.

The blow which knocked out Corbets
was a revelation 10 the prize fighters.
From the earliest days of the ring the
Knockout blow was aimed for the jaw,
the temple or the jurular vein. Stomach
punches were thrown in to worry and
weary the fighter, but II a scientific man
had told one Of the old fighters that the
most vulnerable spot was the region of
the stomach, he'd have laughed at him
for an ignoramus. DR.. Pierce is bringing

DAVENPORT COMPOSER
WRITES A new SONG
red Composition by Miss Ottlie
M. Reupke Just Published.

Miss Ottilie NJ Reupke of Daven-
port, who has achieved such success
with her recent sacred song My Pray
err has just completed a new sacred
song "A Vision and a Prayer. The
words are by Wallace Elliott Moody
who is known in musical circles as one
of the finest tenors ever heard in the
three cities. Mr.. Moody introduc, d
this song at a recent gathering of the
musical critics in Chicago where it was
received with marked enthusiasm. He
expected to sing the song at the First
Presbyterian church, Davenport May

SO he has arranged to have Morgan
Reimers take his place. The song is
a beautiful composition with Miss
Reupke's characteristic sympathy, and
the sweetness of melody that made

STUB LINE NOT POPULAR
Milan People Demur at Return to Old
Transit Conditions.

Milan May 4.-Edftor Argus: Yes
terday morning, with the temperature
about 40, the Milan stub line landed 10
passengers, four of whom were women,
at Sears junction, there to stand up in
the cold and rain one quarter of an
hour until nice warm car went up to
the Watch Tower and back, empty.
These passengers were not even al
lowed to ride up to the Tower and
back. Just such spirit fosters social
ism and a strong desire on the part of
the people to better control these trans
pOrtation companies.
This policy is driving trade away
from Rock Island every day. The
strange part of it is that this same
street car company is doing all it can
to kill its own business in this section
as well as drive trade away from Rock
Island. 1t utterly ignored a petition
(signed by several hundred of its pa
trOns) requesting an amelioration OF
existing conditions.

DAVENPORT


Husband in Prison Asks Divorce
Attorney p. NJ. Daum, acting for Mrs.
Eta Koch, has filed a petition asking
that she be granted a divorce from her
husband, Edward Koch. They were
married in Davenport July 20, 1905, and
lived together until Sept. 26, 1906.
About that time Edward was arrested
for stealing from building in West
Davenport, and on Oct. II was sent to
the penitentiary at Anamosa. Mrs,
Koch therefore asks a divorce on the
ground that her husband is incarcera
ted for committing a felony. She asks
the court to give her the right to use
her maiden name of Eta Bacon.

Crew Not BIamed.-It is learned
that Charles Z. Parker. who died
Thursday from the injuries received
by being crushed under the wheels of
the Silvis transfer train, had come
here from Columbus, Ohio. His rela-
tives reside in that city, and Under
taker Rose sent a message apprising
asking instructions. A reply was re-
ceived in which it was asked to have
the railroad company ship the remains
at its expense. This can hardly be
expected. as the company was in no
way to blame for the accident, and Mr..
Rose has sent a second wire to that eff
feet. He will hold the remains until
he receives some definite reply. The
Coroner's jury attaches no blame to
the crew whatever for the accident.
Parker was walking upon the railroad
tracks a half mile west of East Moline,
when the train came along, bound for
Davenport. l.. S. McLain, brakeman,
and a friend of Parker, was sitting on
top of box car. AS the train passed.
the pedestrian looked up and recogniz.
ed the brakeman, shouted Hello, Mac,
and the salutation was answered by a
nod of the head. Parker than made
three attempts to board the train, and
then McLain caught his eye and shook
his fist at him. The fourth time Park.
er succeeded in catching the grab iron
but was jerked off his feet. He lost
his hold and spun around several times
then fell under the wheels. McLain
| signaled the engineer to stop, and the
man was picked up. Parker said the
| reason he wanted to board the train
was to talk to McLain.
