came strong fraternal organization

COLLEGE DEBATING
TEAMS ARE BESTED

Two defeats were handed Augustana
college last evening, when both de-
batting teams lost, the affirmative bow
ing TO Illinois college of Jacksonville,
2 TO /, and the negative losing to Mon
mouth college by the same score. At
Jacksonville the Monmouth negative
TOOK three votes and by virtue of that
decisive win took the title OF the de-
batting triangle. Adding the votes,
Monmouth got 5. Augustana ,. and
Jacksonville ,. Abandonment of the
Monroe doctrine as a part of our ma
tional foreign policy was the ques-
ton.
The debate at the local college last
evening between the affirmative Of
Augustana and the negative of ILL.,
nols proved to be most interesting,
Joseph Faust opened the meet, and
not until Gladys Dunleavy, leader of
the Lutherans, closed the last rebuttal
aid the audience rest easy. Leonard
Kendall, the other representative.
proved effective throughout his argu-
ments. At Monmouth, Coach Searle's
team, after brilliant display of force
ful points, lost by one vote. Bert
Metcalf, Roy Peal and Truman
Searle were the Augustana boys. The
Monmouth team was composed OF
Harold Mcconnell, Laurence Teare
and Clarence Britton. The Jackson
vile contingent was Clay Apple, Rob-
ert kapps and Edward Billiard. ]. L.
Conger OF Galesburg, ]. Wallace Coop
er of Davenport and j. F. Harper of
Moline served as the judges of the
debate held here.

YOUNCREN'S B0ei
FOUND IN WATER
Remains of East Moline Man Who'll "
appeared Feb. 3 Discovered
Floating in Mississippi.
MAKE GRUEsOME FIND AT NJ 81
Authorities Had EXerted ETory Effort
TO Learn Whereabouts Of
Missing Citizen.

The body of Gust Youngren Of East
Moline, who disappeared Feb was
last evening taken from the Ml$s'ss-
ippi river at Fourth street. Mol ,u,
Since Youngren's disappearance The
police OF the Quad-cities have made
every effort to discover his W here
abouts or TO learn whether he had met
with foul play. Supposition was, how
ever. that he had met an untimely lend
by drowning.
Discovery Of the body was made by
William Leopold and Robert N bore,
two employees at the power plant near
Fourth street Leopold. who livds at
1850 Forty-fourth street, Rock Island,
was the first of the two to see 4 the
body. which he at first thought Was a
log. The supposed log, how over.
proved to be a body and when i'll had
foated within reach of the shore the
man dragged it out of the water with
the aid of q pole. Police were hoti-
fed and took charge of the remains
a gold watch and several receipts. in
a waterproof wallet, served to Identify
the body as Youngren's Remains
were taken to the Danielson and Fur
gle parlors. Coroner r. c. j. Meyer
this morning had summoned his wit
nesses TO testify at the inquest at 8
this afternoon.
Think Death Was Accidental,
Youngren lived alone in a house
boat at the foot of Third street EAST
Moline. and was engaged in fishing
during the summer months. His shack
was in excellent order when 1t was
discovered on Feb. that it was unoc-
cupied. and this led to the theory that
the man had left. Other theory, which
seems TO have been the correct one
was that Youngren went out on the
fee and made hole TO get some water
and fell in.
Police authorities made search for
the missing man and reward Of $50
was offered for his return.
Youngren leaves brother in Chica-
go and another in East Auroral The
latter has been communicated with
and will arrive in Moline late toby to
make arrangements for dispose OF
body. The unfortunate man wastorr
in Sweden, Feb. 10. 1874. His two
brothers are the only near relatives
who survive him He had Iiyte1 in
East Moline for several years.

THE night of March -" said the
diary, I'VE hiked all night, making 50
miles, including a 15-mile climb to an
altitude of 10000 feet over a terrific
mountain trail. We made camp at s
a. M, and in the evening started over
mountain trails 5000 feet high. In
march of ITO miles from our base we
slept three hours All the mountain
trails were very bad.
mo sign yet of Villa and no sign
Of beef. We saw one COW. Troop got
two deer. They kept the deer and did
not loan a bite to anyone else. Damn
hogs. Some Of the men found rhu-
barb with which they made a verY
good stew. We also got some ducks.
I'VE were to take five days rations
for men and horses, but in order to
make the time we wanted we took
only two days. Spent two days in
high attitudes in rain. The weather
is otherwise fine. We have been
among pines nearly all of the time.
with canyons and massive, rocky or
brilliant semi-metallic peaks all about
us. The scenery is most wonderful,
much like Yellowstone, imagine.
Probably Villa could hide here in
definitely, but he would starve.
Later, march resumed, making 80
miles to point where we obtained
beef and one mess of beans"
The remainder of the diary, to date,
cited two further advances and then
the trip of a four-man patrol led by
this officer, across range Of noun
tains to receive orders from one of the
main line communications. The diary
recorded no incidents of the side trip
as worthy Of mention.

1t appears that DR.. j. H. Ross
president of the Florida Citrus Ex.
change, was a bit"peeved" because the
State Press Association at it's annual
meeting in Kissimmee last week
would not allow him but 20 minutes
of the conventions time, and refused
thereupon to speak at all. The press
of Florida knows all about the Ci-
trus Exchange and it's work and has
been giving heavily Of its space TO
advance the work of the organiza-
ton. Press Association meetings
have long enough had their time oc-
cupied by representative of other
interests, and it was a good time to
call halt by snubbing one of the
most persistent nuisances in the cat
alogue of offenders. The Florida
Press Associat ation has been the meet
ing place for Representatives of all
the organizations which are now Or
have heretofore been working the
people of Florida, and it is high time
that the Association should be per-
mitted little of the program for the
exploitation of it's own particular
graft"
