Re continually recommended it. to his
e..2nds. But once at Goodwood, at
the days, end, man came up to the
luke and said:
What of your paper now? Did you
Zee it this morning? Six prophets
lprophesied that six different horses
would win. and here only seven ran,
and the winner was the seventh. which
no prophet had selected. Well, what
have you to say now?

the police station in answer to inquir-
Monday afternoon by which Alfred
Kolloff, son of Carl Kolloff, ia Ninth
street, Rock Island, was injured and
his bicycle smashed beyond repair,
and stated that it was his machine
which was the other element of the

that he was driving along Fourth ave
hue and that he pulled UP to a COM

pass. He claims that while he was
standing there waiting for the car to
pass along Twentieth street, the young
man on the, bicycle whirled around
the corner and cpeshed into the auto
mobile, breaking the bicycle hopeless
ly and severely injuring the boy. Mr.
Kupper states that in no way is he to

he was standing still when the COLI
sion occurred and states that William
Bolte, the confectioner of this city
was riding in his automobile with him
at the time.
