YOUNG GIRL ARRESTED
Serious Charge Placed Against
Rose Dawson, Who is Only.
Fifteen
FOUND IN A PEORIA RRorHEL
Sheriff Shoemaker Takes Girl in Gus
tody at Fathers Request, in the Hope
That He Could induce Her to Lead
Better Life-Warrant for Her Arrest
Filed Upon Return.

Rose Dawson, aged Is, daughter of
John T. Dawson, of 713 Shepard street,
is in jail with serious charge lodged
against her, larceny from a
building in the day time. Mr.. Fred
Hopkins is the complaining witness, al
leging that Miss Dawson. while in his
employ as a domestic, stole from his
home two rings, valued at S12. Miss
Dawson was brought into Justice
Clark's court this morning, waived ex-
animation and was bound over to the
district court. In default of $3.50 bonds
she was placed in Jail to await the
grand jury's action.
The crime alleged to have been COM
mitted by the girl, and for which she
will have to answer, does not repre-
sent the saddest part of the story of
a young life that is rapidly becoming
blighted. While Rose Dawson is but
Is, she has accepted the choice of
life of shame to one of honesty and
uprightness. She left the city week
ago, unknown to her parents, and with
out their knowledge as to her where
abouts. The father, heartbroken over
his daughters actions, and learning of
the fact that she was suspicioned of
having committed a theft, applied to
the sheriff for assistance. Mr.. Dawson
got an inkling that the girl had gone
to Peoria, and upon inquiry thru the
officials there, she was located by the
sheriff, who left Friday evening to Sc
cure her. Sheriff Shoemaker was not
armed with warrant, however, but
had power of attorney conferred
upon him by Mr.. Dawson. The ia
Tiers idea was to get his daughter
home, stop prosecution by returning
the rings, and see IL 1t were not pos
sible to induce her to give up the life
she had started. The sheriff found her
in resort conducted by Anna Will
Jams, woman notorious in Iowa, and
at one time under Indictment here for
having been in charge of a house of
i'll fame The Williams woman, the
sheriff found, had sent transportation
here for the Dawson girl, and one Anna
Christensen, a girl of 16, who is still
an inmate of the resort.
The rings stolen from the Hopkins
home could not be located when the
girl was taken into custody by the
sheriff One, however, was produced
Saturday night after the sheriff re-
turned, and the other was secured this
They were taken from the
kitchen at the Hopkins home, where
they had been left by Miss Hopkins
Sheriff Shoemaker Is sorry that he
didn't have some authority to bring
Miss Christensen home with him, to-
gether with the Dawson girl, for he
thinks that, under the proper environ
ments, she might be brought to realize
the end that will come to her If she
continues to lead the life on which she
has started.

MORE ACTIONS ON NOTES.
Rhoades -carmean Failure the Cause of
Additional Litigation.


The recent failure of the Rhoades-
Carmetn Buggy Company has resulted
in more litigation over notes in which
the buggy company was interested in
either directly or indirectly. The FL
deity Savings Bank is plaintiff in two
Of the new actions, and the Reuss State
Bank of Naperyille, ILL.,. in another.
The Fidelity Bank names as defend
ants in one of it's cases the Rhoades-
carmean Buggy Company. Merritt
Greene, trustee, and H. M. and Mary
Cahill. In It's petition 1t alleges that
ON April /, 1897, Fl. NJ. Dudley, former
resident of this city, was indebted to
G. A. Mote in the sum of $1,000, to Sc
cure which he extended promissory
note covering the amount and this note
Mr.. Mote transferred to the bank be-
fore it was due. Mr.. Dudley gave Mr..
Mote mortgage on lots z, s and g.,
Willigrod's addition, to protect his note,
and this was in turn assigned to Kirby
G. Howe.
About May 6, 1899, the petitioner al
leges that Mr.. Dudley sold and trans
ferred his porperty to the Rhoades-
carmean Buggy Company, and the
bank seeks to recover. 1t asks judg
ment on the property only, and no per-
sonal judgment against any of the de-
PENDANTS. Mr. and Mrs. Cahill are
made defendants because they are the
tenants, and Mr.. Greene because he is
the trustee in bankruptcy of the buggy
company. The bank asks that the
mortgage be foreclosed, and that the
court declare it entitled to receive the
II G re 10 ffey ,0rfer aera

erty A judgment for $1,000, interest
at s per cent. from April /, 1902, is
prayed for.
The other action of the Fidelity Saw
ings Bank is brought against Flave
Scott. Lizzie Scott his wife, Merritt
Greene, trustee, and w. w. and Gus
tenia Stubs. In this petition the
bank alleges that Mr.. and Mrs. Scott
executed a promissory note for $500,
and to assure payment gave a mort
gage on lot 2. block 3, Schoffeld's adj
dition. The property was afterwards
decided to the Rhoades-Carmean Buggy
Company, and later it was sold to w
w. Stubbs and wife, altho there is no
record of the bill of sale on file. The
bank asks that the mortgage be fore
closed and that 1t be given a judg-
ment for 500 against Mr.. and Mrs.
Scott
In the Reuss State Bank case Mrs. E.
Il. Hood, L. r. Maxwell and C. E. Hood
are made defendants The Naperville
bank claims that on July II, 1902, the

Tele raphers of the Iowa Cen
trail Want More Money and
Prepare Schedule
MEETING HELD SATURDAY NIGHT
Form Branch of the Order of Railway
Telesraphers and Will Take Steps to
Secure Recosnition-Schedule to be
Presented General Superintendent
Sweeney Soon-Minimum Will Be $45

The operators of the Iowa Central
railway, and the agents at the smaller
stations, who are of necessity tele-
graphers, perfected an organization
Saturday evening at a meeting held in
Oskaloosa. The organization will be
known as a branch of the Order of
Railway photographers of America, and
a schedule was prepared, for presen-
tation soon to General Superintendent
Sweeney.
The operators OF the Central think
that they are not receiving sufficient
recognition of their worth. In other
words they want more money. The
minimum monthly wage, according to
the schedule, is $45, and the schedule
also calls for other advantages to the
operators, such as extra pay for Sum
days and holidays, and overtime for
extra work. In fact a general recogni-
lion of the operators of the entire sys-
tenn Is asked.
The present minimum scale in force
on the Central is s35, but this amount
is paid only at the smaller places.
Forty dollars would more nearly rep
resent the average minimum. These
salaries, however, do not represent the
actual money that the agents at the
smaller places receive, for they get
commission from the express company
for acting as agent for it.
What the operators want is a general
increase in pay, and in making the re-
quest they do not think that they are
at allfradical, or asking more than they
deserve for the labor they perform.
Many of the agents at the smaller
towns are hard worked, as they repre-
sent practically every branch of the
service at the points where they are
stationed
In attendance at the meeting of the
operators from this city were r. c.
Jacobs. who is at present acting as day
operator in the yard office; III. A.
Boughton, cashier In the local freight
office; and H. B. Cole, night operator
at the yard office.
