JAIL IS IMPROVED.
Some Notable Changes at the
Rock Island County
Lookup.
woMENs DEPARTMENT INSTALLED

Interior of Building Cleaned and Reno
waited and Paper and Paint Freely Used
Entrance Moved From South to East
BaiIifs.
When the improvements that are
under way at the Rock Island county
Jail are completed there will be notice
able change in the interior of the old
building at the corner of Third ave-
nue. and Fourteenth street that has
served these many years as home for
law breakers.
Grand iuries after inspections of the
building have recommended to the
board of supervisors that ways and
means be provided for the erection OF
a new Jail. as the present structure
either from q sanitary or safety
standpoint, for the keeping of prison
ers. but the board. owing to the large
outlay necessitated by the building OF
our magnificent court house, has not
felt able to undertake any further
building for awhile, and decided upon
the renovation of the Jail and making
of. alterations wherever thought adj
visable, so that the building would
be made to serve all purposes until
the county was in position financially
to erect new one.
Money Well Spent.
Upward of $500 has been expended.
and judiciously, too, all who will
take the time to visit the Jail build
ing will allow. In the first place a
women's steel cell furnished with
neat and comfortable beds has been
installed in the northeast corner on
the second floor. while adjoining this
a boys department has been fitted up.
The main Jail apartment has been
thoroughly cleaned and whitewashed
and painted. The entrance has been
changed from the south to the east
side and the first floor room that
served as the sheriff's Office before the
erection of the court house has been
fitted up for the turkeys room and
has been painted and papered. The
entrance to the mems department is
at the west side of this room. A
room at the north on the first floor
formerly used for storage purposes
now serves as sleeping quarters for
the bailiffs.
There are now all told 30 prisoners
at the Jail. Sheriff Cralle states that
he has not had any trouble since a
few of the dad birds" attempted to
gain their liberty by saving the locks
on the iron doors that guard the main
entrance. He says all connected with
that job have apologized to him for
their conduct and are on their good
behavior but one fellow, Fitzpatrick
by name. who is still locked up by
himself

RUN IN TWO MONTHS
Electric Cars Will Operate Direct
to Rock Island Arsenal
Shops.
PLANS COMPLETED THIS MORNING.

Grading Operations to Begin This Week
Permitted and Piers to be Put In This
Fan-A Great Convenience to workmen
at the Arsenal.
Electric street cars will be carrying
Rock Island arsenal employees to and
from any part of the three cities and
the island shops within the next so
days. The details pertaining to track
construction en- the island of Rock
Island from Fort Armstrong avenue
up to the shops were completed by
Maj. Stanhope E. Blunt, commandant
a. the arsenal, and j. F. Lardner, the
tireless general manager of the Tri-
City Railway company, this morning.
The tracks are to be located from 200
to 800 feet wost of the arsenal rail-
road, and running parallel with the
latter up the island and back of the
shops and dry house. Connection
with the company's main line between
Rock Island and Davenport will be
made near the curve in the tracks
where the Rock Island viaduct crosses
the drive from this city to the arsenal.
BY this means the employees trains
to this city and to Davenport will be
switched to and from the arsenal
Grading operations will begin the
middle of the present week, and there
are to be several heavy fills, but Gen
eral Manager Lardner is determined
to provide first-class road bed all
the way through, on which will be
laid heavy It rails. The work of road
building will be completed in 2-months'
time and cars running for the benefit
of the island men by the time the
leaves fall.
The Upper Bridge.
. The war department has given its
sanction to the erection of the bridge
from the upper end of this city to the
arsenal. as heretofore referred TO, thus
providing a short cut by means of
street car for the men living in the
east portion of this city and Moline.
The point of landing of this bridge
has not yet been definitely located,
but will be shortly with the con-
sent of the city as to right of way.
approach, etc. The bridge is to
be steel structure 400 feet long and
will cost the Tri-City Railway COM
pany at closest calculations $50. 900.
1t will take some time for it's con-
struction, but Manager Lardner hopes
to get the piers in when the water is
low this fall. The bridge will be for
single track and used for electric cars
only, the government restricting its
use to the operation of electric trains
to and from the island and imposing
the usual restrictions in regard to a
thoroughfare between the cities of
Moline and Davenport across the ISL
and in this way.
VIII Prove a Big Benefit.
The bridge when completed used
by street cars will prove a great BEN
eft to the upper end of Rock Island
and the lower end of Moline. Until
this direct means of transit is pro-
vided, Rock Island arsenal employees
residing in this locality will be taken
over by way of the line connecting
with the Fort Armstrong tracks of
the Bridge division of the Tri-City
Railway system.
