HENRY MYERS HOME
VISITED BY A FIRE

Home of Henry Myers, $50 Thirty
eighth street, was damaged to the ex-
tent Of $500 by fire which broke out
between , and 3:25 this morning. The
flames were first noticed by neigh
bOrs, as no one was in the house at
the time of the fire.
Mr.. and Mrs. Meyers left Moline
Sunday to spend the Fourth in Mil
waukee. How the blaze originated is
not known. SuppositiOn of Chief Hawk
of the fire department is that it either
had its inception in spark from a
passing train or that it was started
by fireworks in the neighbOrhOod dur
ing the evening, smoIdered during the
night and broke out early this morn
ing.
The fire destroyed all the furniture
in the house Due to the Roadway
which the flames had obtained before
being discovered, great difficulty was
experienced in getting them under
control.

BIG LEAGUE CLUB rs
ANGLING FOR r. FALK

Ray Falk, Moline shOrtstop, may get
a try-Out with a National league club
this season, and probabilities are that
the chance will come within the next
five days.
All ivory hunter. who has been on
the trail of the PlOw Boy for many
days. asked Secretary Blackman be
fore yesterdays game for price on
the youngster A figure was given,
and the scout wired it to his boss,
with request for instructions as TO
whether he should close the deal. He
is now awaiting the answer. While
Falk had anything but a brilliant day
yesterday, his showing did not lessen
the scouts estimation of him. The
hunter declared that Falk would hold
his own in the big tent. and he CON
siders Ray a brainy player.
Naturally, the price asked for Falk
is not made public, though it is said
that it will be an outright sale if the
deal is closed Moline fans would re
greet Rays loss to the team, but they
want TO see him get his chance
higher up.
