LEAVES TONIGHT BULLET CRASHES INTO WINDOW OF KESIDENCE Kobert Beimel t bn light to the liee station this morning a .38 calibre revolver bullet which crashed through a window in his home on Twenty third street this morning. Its force must have been spent for after break ing the glass it dropped inside on the floor, where it was found by mem bers of the family who were startled by the crash. Xo report was heard in the vicinity at the time and those in terested are. at a loss to know whence it came. There is a strict ordinance against the reckless discharge of fire arms within city limits and careless offenders of this character are likely to bet made examples of if their iden tity is found by the officers. Contrary to expectations the police liiad a light day yesterday- and only two hearings came liefore Magistrate Johnson yesterday and today, both simple cases of intoxication. John Jones, arrested yesterday by Officer 1 letter, was lined $." and costs, while Martin Mack was assessed $1 and ac cessories. The wild west aggregation seemed to be suffering with a general "the morning after" quietness and its members were looking for sleep rath er than trouble. Magistrate Johnson gave T. Rosen field a hearing today on a charge of violating the city plumbing ordi nances. A fine of $20 and costs was imposed. Mr. llosenficld claims that he took particular precautions in the ease not to violate the ordinance and will appeal the case.

BEGINS DUTIES AT MINNEAPOLIS Started Hailroading Witb Wabash 21 Years Ago Cashier Col lins Temporary Successor. Mew An Tour JtWT . V tt m. Add. UtecUag tttmwtr Co-.Cnlowo or M. J. T. McKtnnan, local freight agent of the Bock Island, leaves tonight for Minneapolis, where he will take up at once his new duties as local freight agent for the system in that city. Un til his successor is officially announc ed James Collins., the cashier, will be in charge of the local freight office. Although announcement has not yet been sent out from the head office at Chicago, C. Y. Thatcher, of Oalva, will undoubtedly- succeed Mr. Mc Ken nan as local freight agent in Kock Isl and. With the resignation of J. T. Kockwell at Peoria creating a vacan cy, there will be a general readjust ment in the territory of the district which means the promotion or trans fer of It men. Checked Oat Today. This afternoon the work of check ing out Mr. McKennan was completed and his accounts were all found in very good condition. While he re grets his removal from Kock Island, where he has made his home for the past four years, yet his promotion is one to compensate for the change and removal to a strange community. Twenty-one years ago Mr. McKennan started in as office boy for the Wa bash road. He was with the Wabash for some time and then went into the employ of the Kock Island at Blue Island. Later he went to Washing ton Heights, and from there came to Kock Island. His rise has been grad ual and sure and is not only" due to his energy ami application, but also to innate ability. Prmrntert With Chair. When Mr. McKennan returned to the office this afternoon he was wait ed upon by those who have been work ing under his supervision and II. E. Curtis, chief clerk, in behalf of him self and the others, presented him with a chair as a slight token of es teem. Mr. McKennan made a re sponsi'. in which he referred to the pleasant relations' that uad existed between himself and those under his direction. The freight office force has found Mr. McKennan an exeep- tiouallv agreeable taskmaster, and while they are disposed to eongratu late him upon the recognition that he has received, they are all filled with regret at his depnrture. There are a number of changes to be recorded in the local freight office of the Kock Islam!. Nathaniel Swnn son has resigned as car clerk and will be succeeded by Alfred Christensen. Kichard Woodyatt. from the "out side" office, will take the hitter's place. W. P.. Stine succeeds the last named. (icorge Hamaker is acting foreman in the freight house in place of (I. A. Jensen, who is spending his vacation in Seattle. Wash. J. 11. Fuller has just returned after spending his vacation at Chicago. WILD WEST OUTFIT SUSTAINS ITS REPUTATION The Forepaugh-Fish wild west show, which gave exhibitions here yesterday. departed last night leaving a rather bad impression in this vicinity While no serious trouble involving ar rests occurred, there were numerous small incidents which did not tend to improve the local opinion of the out fit. The entire company, employes as well as the members of the manage ment. seemed to have gone out on : grand carousal while Davenport and its slums were at hand. and yes terday morning the Bridge line cars brought, over several diversified car goes of intoxicated Indians, Cossacks, Arabs and plain United States citi zens. As far as the riding feats are con cerned, they were very good, but the it her features of the performance were few and colorless. .Numerous sells on the side w lived led away the money of the unwary. The grandest fake of all was perpetrated on a rare collection of old "baldheaos" who as sembled after the evening program to witness a performance which was to outdo TJttle. Egypt in her daringest. All they saw was a young woman in full street costume who gave them the merry "ha ha." Several gambling games were conducted surreptitious- The show was without question one of the poorest andw asaceompanied by one of the worst gangs that ever vis ited this locality, and if the newspa pers where it appears" would invaria bly tell the truth about it not. only would the institution be put out of existence, but additional weight would be given press notices of amusement enter prises in the mind of the public.
