clipping in the letter reveals . Sc

he was successfully concealing from
the eyes from of the world and
one that he had guarded with great
care. The letter is similar to the
one received by the Aledo reducers
some time ago, the writer OF which
has never been discovered. Every
effort is being made by the sheriff
to find out the author Of the letter
and it is thought that reward will

BANDITS AeAIN
WORK IN CITY;
TAILOR ROBBED


Bandits were again on the Job
last night in Moline. Tom Kentules,
merchant tailor ct 1853 Fourth ave-
nue., was robbed Of $15.21 near his
shop after he was attacked by three
men, slugged and dragged into IN
alley.
The bandits were armed and
masked. About s o'clock last eve
ming Kentules was walking on
Second street between Fourth and
Railroad avenues.
II saw three suspicious looking
men," said the tailor. "One Of them
was standing behind q tree. l said
to myself taat l would call the po-
lice as soon as I got back to the
shop"
Just then one Of the armed ban
dts approached Kentules and or
dered him to throw up his hands.
Kentules refused.
Il stepped back" he continued,
"and swung at him. He must have
a black eye because / hit him a
real wallop."
The other two highwaymen came
to the aid Of their companion and
Kentules was overpowered and
dragged west in the alley about
forty feet.
Here he was compelled to reach
for the stars while two Of the men
searched him. As the searchers
reached the pocket which contained
the tailor's money he forgot himself
and covered the pocket with his
hand.
One Of the highwaymen slugged
the forgetful arm with the butt end
of his revolver. Kentules' vest was
torn in the struggle.
When Kentules was completely
searched the bandits ordered him
to walk east. One Of them remain
ed to see that he did SO and the
others walked in the opposite di.
rection. When the tailor reached
Second street he faced about, but
the bandits were nowhere to bt
seen.
