SQUIRRELS GET BLACK EYE
5urIinston's Pets Said to Be Doing
DAMAGE to Telephone System

DuIiiUShOUS Fclo OdiO 10 DC OOinQ
Damage to Telephone System
The New England Telephone COM
pany has discovered new side to
the squirrels which have become Bur
lington's pets and It was on their ac-
count that the telephone service on
South Union street and nearby resi-
dences was put out of commission for
several hours Wednesday night and
yesterday morning.
In investigating the trouble the line
men found that the squirrels had
eaten through the sheath to the cable
which contains 12O pairs of wires,
supplying several hundred services
and the water, leaking through the
holes, made the wires useless. The
sheath is of lead, an eighth of an inch
or more in thickness and is for the
express purpose of protecting the
wires from the rain and snow, so that
the service may remain unimpaired
during storms. In places where the
trees might serve to wear away the
sheath, it Is furnished additional pro-
lection by a wooden shield
The workmen found that in several
places within a short distance OF trees
the lead had been eaten. II will be
necessary to remove quite an amount
OF the defective sheath, which will
/ entail some expense to the company.
This is. however, insignificant in COM
parison with the serious results and
Inconvenience which might result
/ from such a serious impairment of the
service, particularly in case of fire OF
sudden sickness.
In addition to the trouble caused to
the telephone people. the owners of
! gardens have found that their seeds
are dug up and destroyed and later in
the season small ears of corn are eat.

Circus HangcrsOn Under Arrest for

Man.

There are about dozen AIcxicans
under arrest at the police station as
the result of robbery which took
place late last night The victim OF the
affair is Frank NJ. Robinson, 613
Twenty-seventh street. He was as
saulted and held up by two Mexicans,
but how much money and valuables
was secured from him has not been
divElSed by The police. They think.
however, that two of the men under
arrest are the ones that are wanted
and they are trying to find out which
two it is. The Mexican suspects are
all strangers in the city and few of
them can speak English. One was
able to prove pretty conclusiveIy that
he had just come over the river from
Davenport looking for a job, but the
others are thought TO be hangers on
from the circus which was in Moline
yesterday. The preliminary hearing
OF the bunch is set for this evening.
