1t has often been observed that while

The beds and bedding were clean and
tidy and in good condition. There were
103 inmates; 81 males and 46 females.
These al appeared TO be clearly in their

The inmates are furnished with coffee

The little local packet Verne Swain, in
tie Rock Island, Davenport, Clinton and
Fulton short trade, did not go out on her
regular trip yesterday afternoon, but tied
up at the Rock Island shore all night. 1t
was the first trip the Verne Swan had
missed In her history during the season

she had been often delayed in conse-
qnence of high winds and rough sea.

popular master. Capt. John Streckfus.
Inc latter had gone to ST. Louis on
visit and during his absence, while the
boat was lying at the Davenport shore
yesterday, George Hakes, the engineer,
was arrested for alleged completely with
the men Carpenter and Lyons, who are
charged with criminal conduct toward
two giils of tender age Mamie Woods
and Ada zimmerman. The Verne was
detained considerably beyond her usual
time of departure by the difficulty in Sc
curing man to take his place, and was
finally compelled to tie up to the Rock
Island side over night
The Davenport Times Of last evening,
speaking of the arrest gives the follow
ing sensational information concerning
it,.
Whoever dreamed of such crimes.
Who would think, that fathers with white
heads would be guilty of wholesale rape.
The police have unearthed a series of
crimes that will make the city tremble,
Last night at the instance of the parents
OF little Ada zimmerman, Capt. Falkner
arrested Tom Carpenter and c. Fl. Lyon,
for the rape of Ada, who is but - years
old. Her companion, Mamie Wood aged
II years, was also abused by the two
fiends. They induced the children to 90
to Carpenters stable on Perry street
which is located between Fifth and Sixth
streets where Carpenter keeps his race
horses and Lyons is his hos,ler. Here
the girls were abused in a most shameful
manner. Both of the children and their
mothers were at the station this morning.
Upon the information of the little girl a
warrant was issued for the arrest of
George Hskes, engineer of TIE Verne
Swain, who, they say, also outraged them
while in the toilet room of the boat, also
at Schuetzen park.
The case is on trial at Davenport to,
day. The Verne went out as usual this
afternoon

Wore Female Attire All His Life.

Many examples are known of women
dressing as men, but until lately no case
has been known of a man going about
disguised as woman. A man named
Signol, seventy-two years old, employed
as cook, was taken to the hospital of
Saint Antoine, Paris, suffering from gas
tritis. Mistaken, on account Of his
dress, for q woman, he was taken to the
ward reserved for members of the weak
er sex. When they found out the mis-
take he was put into another ward.
The strangest thing about the whole
case is that Signol says that he never
wore male attire excepting on the day
he was examined by the conseil de re-
vision in order to determine whether he
was fit for military service. When he
was seventeen years old he went as a
servant girl to a farm in Lin-sur-Mer
He remained there eleven years. He
learned to cook at Caen and went to
Paris, where he was employed as cook
for forty years either in private families
or in boys schools. Letter.
