It was stopped because I was called away to Chicago to assist in arranging de tails for a bond issue and none of the work Is carried on here if not under my personal supervision. I was away two weeks, much longer than I had ex pected. I do not know of anyone ex cept a man to whom $1.35 is due who has not got every cent the company owes him. If there are any they can find me at eny time by appointment. Our balance In the Davenport Savings bank haa never been under hundreds since we began operations here. It has varied between that amount and $10. 000. We have spent over $125,000 in Davenport and we certainly do not In tend to lose this investment by letting the work drop at its present stage."

What was thought to have been an accidental death of the unidentified man who was run over by a Rock Island freight train last Wednesday, five miles west of Davenport, has been proven by later evidence to be one of 'the most de liberate, premeditated suicides on rec ord. Not only did the man throw him. self headlong under the moving train, but after the train had been stopped, the train crew saw the man pull his mangled body to the side of the track and lay his head over the rail, evident ly still in doubt as to whether the car wheels had effectively carried out his purpose of running over his body at the waist. That the man was of unsound mind is undoubted. Mrs. Block, the wife of D. H. Block, a farm er residing six miles northwest of Davenport, Identified him as the man who came to her door saying that he wanted to be burned. She closed the door, and the man grasped a club and went out and sat down in the middle of the garden. Mrs. Block fled through a side door to her husband who was in the field. When Mr. Block returned, the man had disappeared. He walked to the tracks looking for the man, and ss he reached the right of way he saw the man throw himself under a car about the middle of the train.

Suit for $18, 000 for the death of Almeda Mar tin of Princeton, whom it is claimed was killed by a volt from a live wire while she was turning on a light in her home, has been begun by E. F. Martin, administrator in her estate, against the Iowa & Illinois Railway company, the Clinton interurban. Mrs. Martin met death in a peculiar man ner March 21, 1914. She went down into the cellar at her home to turn on the light. As she did so she fell to the floor, having received a shock, which her husband claims caused her death. Mr. Martin claims that the interur ban had contracted to furnish elec tricity to the town of Princeton for the purpose of lighting the streets and for ubb in the homes as well. He avers in his petition that the company was permitted to charge the wires with no more than 110 volts of elec tricity. He declares that a few days before March 31, this year, the ma chinery was out of order and the cjarge into the wires increased. He claims that the company was notified of this. He claims that when his wife went into the basement she did not know of her danger and was about to turn on the light. W. M. Chamberlin is his attorney and the petition was filed in district court Saturday. Cement Blocks Spring Surprise A few days ago it was announced that the cement blocks now being manufac tured by the Cement Products com- pany of Davenport exceeded the test required by the new building ordi nance by 50 per cent. This statement was doubted by some who believed it impossible to make blocks which would stand one hundred pounds pres sure when but forty-eight hours old. In order to verify the teet the building inspector has made a second test marking blocks as they came from the moulds and testing them at the end of forty-eight hours steam curing. Four blocks marked and tested showed an average of 97,000 pounds pressure. This shows what can be done with up-to-date equipment. Obituary Record. W. C.
