Detective Schleuter, of the Davenport police force, was called to Grand Isle Sunday, where he placed under arrest three men charged by Manager Kuehl jwith trespass. The men gave their names as William De Smith, Charles De Smith and Charles Doblen. Eacn hail a gun and they were engaged in 'hunting squirrels. Shooting upon (Grand Isle is strictly prohibited by the management, hence the arrest of the violators of the rules and regula tions posted conspicuously at various places upon the island. The men and their guns were taken to the police station. There the men were booked and allowed to go upon leaving their guns as security. This they did and agreed to appear for trial yesterday. They failed to appear, and unless they do so. the guns wnl be forfeited. It was at first thought that the men de cided to forfeit their guns rather than to take any chances in having the game warden bringing proceedings against them. Officer Schleuter, however, states that when arrested the men had no game in their possession and had merely shot at some squirrels, but failed to bring any of them to the ground. All three men are residents of Rock Island and are employed at the plant of the Rock Island Plow works. Enjoins a Saloon. The first injunction taken out in Davenport or in Scott county, under the present mulct law. was put on record in the court house yesterday af ternoon when Judge James W.

Kemmerer filed an ap plication for a temporary injunction, to be made permanent later on, against the Rock Island Brewing com pany, George Walker, Orey Janssen, agent of the Rock Island Brewing com pany, and C. H. Merchant, with Walk er & Merchant, asking that the saloon operated by Walker & Merchant be declared a nuisance and suppressed according to law. Judge Bollinger signed the decree, which effectually closes the establishment permanently, and ..prevents the property from ever again being used in the liquor traffic. It is now under lock and key and will not be opened for any business what ever except upon the court's being satined that the business will be a legitimate one. Stricken While on Visit. Mrs. A. P.

Kid Sayers of Milwaukee and Adam Ryan of Chicago have been matched to fight at Hot Springs. Sullivan Loses to Herman. Hot Springs, Ark., March 1 1. "Kid" Herman was given a decision over Dave Sullivan in the ninth round by Referee "Kid" McCoy amidst a wild scene at the Whitington Park Athletic club last night. The round began with Sullivan coming out of his corner seemingly none the worse for his ear lier punishment. After a few light ex changes Herman landed a righ't up percut. to Sullivan's jaw, which did not appear to have the necessary force to send Sullivan to the fbor. but the lat ter deliberately went down and took a count of nine. On arising he went to a clinch, and on the break received a right and left swing to the jaw. He appeared a bit wobbly, hut covered up effectively and Herman sailed in and began fighting wildly. A light swing again landed to Sullivan's jaw and the fighter went to the floor. His chief second, Benny Murphy, threw a sponge info the ring as a token of de feat. Kid McCoy promptly kicked it out and ordered the seconds, who had attempted to climb into the roped in closure, out. meanwhile waving the fighters to eontinue. After partial or der was restored the men resumed fighting and Herman landed a light punch on Sullivan's chest. The latter deliberately dropped to his knees and permitted McCoy to count him out. McCoy had no hesitancy in declaring after the fight that Sullivan quit cold. MEW ZEALAND ILLUSTRATED With Song, Pictures and Music at the Y. M. C. A. Anditorium. Rev.

One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and exccllonco is the ever pleasant Syrup of Fijrs, manufactured by the California Fig1 Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue lig-s are used to con tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system frently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti l pat ion and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active princi ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own icrsonal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent. laxative reined-. We do not claim that it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing: nothing: of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courajro to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect its beneficial effects if they do not pet the genuine remedy. To the credit of the drug-frists of the United States be it sai-l that nearly all of them value their reputation for professioi:;:! integrity and the good will of their imitations of the Genuine Syrup of Figs manufactured by the California Fig- Syrup Co., and in order to buy the gvnuine article and to g-et its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company- California Fig Syrup Co. plainly package.
