POLICE AND FIRE
JOBS UNPOPULAR

Moline men have little desire to
become police or firemen. At least,
that Is the conclusion Of the police
and fire commissioners for while
only two days remain in which ap-
plication for examination for such
positions can be had, practically no
applications have been received.
Comparatively low wages paid to
such officials is held responsible
for this lack Of interest.
The public examinations to be
given at 10 o'clock Thursday morn
ing will be conducted by Frank
Walker, chairman, and C. S. Ire
vor, secretary of the police and
fire board. A number of men now
serving on the police and fire de-
partments will be required to take
the tests as they were appointed
during emergencies and before the
board had an opportunity to exam
Inc them.

dent Of Moline for one year, and

DESIRES DATE OF
WORKMAN'S DEATH

Information concerning the death
of Carl Johan Anderson, who is
supposed to have died in Decem-
Der, 1901, from injuries received in
Moline plow factory, is being
sought by Moline police. The Swe-
dish consul general in Chicago has
requested the department to trace
all clues that might lead to any
facts concerning the Anderson
death. He especially wants the
death certificate, to settle an estate
in Sweden.
Notices have been sent out to all
old residents of Moline and vicin-
ity to see il anyone recalls the man
and the circumstances relative to
his injury and death.
The consul has applied to the
Moline health department, the
county clerk, the state bureau OF
vital statistics at Springfield and
to the Moline Pillow company and
Deere company. So far his efforts
have proved fruitless.

DEERE SCHOOL
BIDS ALL HIGH
East Moline Board Therefore De
cIdes to Alter Plans and Build
One Story Now.

Six bids for the construction OF .
new John Deere school, submitted
for inspection Of the East Moline
school board last evening, were re-
jected. All were several thousand
dollars in excess of estimates pre-
pared for the school attorney, F. H.
Railsback.
Recent bond sales raised the
amount Of funds to finance the
proposition to 100000. This sum
was to cover costs Of grading and
installing plumbing and heating as
we'll as costs Of actual construction
The lowest bid received last night
placed the cost OF construction
alone at $500. Conservative esti-
mates place the grading cost al
$1,000.
Change Plans
The board decided therefore, te
construct one-story structure on
permanent foundation but with q
temporary roof to be AIDED to as
growth demanded and finances per
mitted. They also decided that the
! west wing proposed in the first
plans for the two-stOry structure
but eliminated on account OF in
sufficient funds, should be included
in the new plans SO that when
second story is added to the frs
addition it will be even larger thar
called for in the original two-stor!
plan. The new school will b.
erected directly in the rear OF thu
| present school which will be lef
intact until the new one is com
pleted. Bids for the new building
with the above described altera
tons, will be imediately advertised
for, and may be submitted not late
than Aug. Is.
