DAVENPORT DOTS Georgt? I. Stewart, a former weil known Davenport man, died July 11 at Kansas City. -The death of John W. Fecker, for many, years a resident of this city, occurred at 9 o'clock Saturday morn ing" at his home, 1S0S Franklin street. He had been ill for a year with an ailment of the heart. Mr. Fecker was born in Friesland, Hanover, tier many, Sept. 1 ,1833. He came t this country in -May, 18GG, settling at St. Louis., but three months after he moved to. this city", and it was his home till he died. Mr. Fecker was engaged in the sand business here for a time' after his arrival; later he kept a boarding, house on Front street be tween Western avenue and Gaines street. A year and a half ago he built a comfortable home on the bluff and retired. Mr. Fecker was married in this city May 2o, 1867, to Miss Frauke Schoom. She remains to mourn him, with one son. Henry W. Fecker, and two daughters, Mrs. George Spiess and Mrs. Caesar Yulff. An unusual death was that which claimed Arthur K. Nord, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Nord, of i:H) Fast Locust street. Friday afternoon. The young liwtn was seated in a hammock at his home, when he suddenly gave signs of a distress and in a very brief time expired. Pulmonary trouble and a hemorrhage that shortly preceded the fatal seizure, are supposed to Apart from the excellent properties which it develops w hen used in mak ing beverages, the ginger root is just lv famed as an OLD-FASHIONED HOUSEHOLD REMEDY to .tone up a d-eranged 75he Ginger Ale That Mada Rock Island Famous. stomach. In cases of spasms of the stomach or of the bowels, a strong preparation of ginger is an extreme ly useful remedy, while for flatulence, loss -f appetite and dyspepsia, the regular use of a more dduted bever age is indicated. Possessing, when properly made, a peculiarly tine flavor and aroma, as well as distinct, albeit, medicinal virtues, ginger ale is con sumed in proportions appearing sim ply incredible to those not familiar with the facts. P.ut this distinction was not gained until years of pcrse vering efforts and of the closest ob servation had brought the beverage have conduced to his sudden end. Arthur Nord was 21 years of age. For several years he had been connected with the newspaper oflires of this citv. lie serveu lor a time in the composing room of the Democrat, and later in that or tne Kemiblican. working latterly for the Leadier. He was bright, active, at tentive to his work, anil intelligent m the discharge of duties that were oi- ten eomolex and trvinir. He was, moreover, genial and cheerful in dis position. There is great sorrow on the nart of his former associates ax his untimelv death. With his in dustrious habits and his capacity to acouire. he had an encouraging iu- ture before him when his lire wm cut short. One of the most peculiar accidents which has happened in Davenport for some time and the only instance ever recorded in the citv- where a person was struck by lightning and escaped without losing his- life, took place during the storm Friday afternoon at about 4 o'clock. Mrs. George An dersen was standing in the kitchen of her home at 2115 Urown street watch ing Hit storm, when she was struck by a bolt of lightning and knocked senseless to the floor. She was pick ed up and Dr. Sala was summoned at once. When he arrived she was still senseless, but after he had worked over her for a few minutes she show ed signs of returning life and, al though she is still suffering from the disagreeable results of a severe elec tric shock, in a short time she will be entirely recovered.

SCENE LIKE THOSE OF YOKE OK THE ROCK ISLAND LEVEE The harbor presented a scene of ac tivity during the noon hour tolav which has been rivaled but once be fore this season, and seldom equaled since the palmy river nays oi u Past. .No less than l. craft were counted on both sides of the stream the Dubuque, Ouinev ami Col. A. Mar kenzie lying abreast on the IJock Isl and side, at the foot of Seventeenth street, vhile the Clinton. Winona, Car die Kastman and others lined the Dav enport levee. The Hut ledge and K D. Kendall were also on the IJock Island side, bringing a raft down from the slough. The unusual sight of two big Dia mond Jo boats lying abreast at the levee attracted a large crowd of in terestcd onlookers, the hustling deck hands, hurrying passengers and boats' officers making a great show of bus tle and movement, which reminded the old timers of the way things used to be.. Following is today's river bulletin bid fair to that end. Some of the students are discouraged over the outlook because the school is under the handicap of graduating eleven of the squad of sixteen of last year- Perrin, Cowlev. Keitlng, Ogden, Crif- fin. Vinton. Ford. Dell, and II. Arrell, Kobert and Oscar Shallberg. Hut the chances even vet are good with Hed- in, Stroinberg, Haas, Tow ml row and Isaacson as experienced men and the nucleus of a stronir new eleven.

Zeigler, one of the early- settlers of South Moline. died quite suddenly at Friday afternoon of the infirmities of old age. She had been practically bedfast since last No vember, sittimr up only an hour or two a day, but her condition seemed to have su lie red no apparent change till just before her death. Mr. Zeigler was in the twin-cities when the attack of heart, failure came, and the stimu lants failed to revhe the aged lady When Mr. Zeigler arrived his wife had passed to unconsciousness and in a few minutes death came. Catherine Dernier whs -born Nnv. 11.122. in Lancaster, Pa., and was married to Mr. Zeigler in 1tl. They lived on the Ziegler farm until ISJ'J when they moved to Hock Island, and a year la ter settled on the farm ir. South Mo line which has since been their home. Their union was blessed with six chil dren, two of them survive: Mrs. Ma thilda McClnre. of Davenport, and Mrs. A. S. Ciinn, of Chicago. The chil dren who proceeded her to the grave are: Charles J., Albert S., . 11. Clara J... wife of W. C. Wilson.
