Once upon a time somebody wrote or
said that there was food for reflection
in something or other. Inasmuch as
there is food for reflection in about
everything from the night before to the
morning after-and particularly the
morning after-it was not an uncom-
monty bright squib or remark. 1t was
good for curtain call, nevertheless,
and considerate use has been made of
1t ever since.
However, there certainly is food for
reflection in the announcement that
Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt will have four
yachts in commission this year. The
sttamer North Star, named for the
first vessel owned in the Vanderbilt
family, will be the flagship of the fleet;
the Rainbow, a seventy-foot sloop, will
be sailed and raced Iby Captain Barr, of
Americas cup fame; the fast Mirage
will be used as tender to the Rain
bow, and an auto boat, up to twenty
two miles an hour, will carry the own
er when he is in a hurry.
All this teaches that no young man.
AiONSfOl o4budNCu Oly II may ne, u6JGCL-
ed over the moral insolvency of sup
posedly successful financiers, need de-
spair of earning not only living, but
what may fairly be regarded as a COM
petence. It will be remembered that
not long ago Mr.. Vanderbilt marrying
without the consent or, at least, APP
prevail ofhis parents, was cut off with
q few millions,a beggarly sum, com
paratively speaking, and left to make
his own way in the world. Yet by
strict attention to business he has evil

pered amazingly, and, as far as can be
learned, honestly. Even if he has Civ
en- up housekeeping and is living on
one of the craft enumerated, everybody
is well aware that yacht is an ex-
pensive plaything; and four yachts
must be nearly four times as expen-
sive

these waters it is difficult, If not i'm
possible, to hire by the hour sixteen

ADMITS BURGLARY
Man Taken by the Police Here
Confesses Connection
With Ten Thefts.
OPERATED IN DAVENPORT
Harvey Lee and Mrs. Russell, Com
Panion, Are Turned Over to DaV-
export Authorities.

1t developed last evening that the
man arrested by the police here yes
terday afternoon when he disposed of
a gold watch and chain at the Deutch
Bros pawn shop on Twentieth street,
was Harvey Lee, who has committed
many burglaries in Davenport during
the last six months. Lee was arrested
with a woman named Mrs. Russell, the
police being notified by the pawn brok-
er when he noticed that the watch
answered the description of one stolen
in Davenport Wednesday. The man
and the woman were taken by Detect
i've Brinn, and Officers Pearson and
Gordon. They were examined at the
police station. and finally the man ad
mitted that he had committed four
burglaries in Davenport wednesday
night At the home of w. c. Bolte.
1911 Ripley street. about $50 in cash
and the gold watch was taken. At the
other places nothing but food was stol-
en-. The couple were turned over to
force. who was in Rock Island at the
time.
Admitted the Thefts.
In Davenport today Lee admitted
nearly 10 burglaries in the last few
months and the police are inclined TO
think that he had hand in others that
have taken place within the last six
months. The woman seems not to be
implicated in the burglaries, but is held
by the police pending a disposition OF
the case against Lee. He has had nc
preliminary hearing.
Lee had in his possession number
of pawn tickets. and one of these prov
ed to be one from Johnny Jones shop,
where a cornet valued at nearly $5O
was pawned for So. The others were
from Davenport pawn brokers. The
cornet was recovered by the police.
The capture of Lee is an important
one. and to the prompt notification by
Mr.. Deutch. the police owe their sue
cess in rounding up the perpetrator OF
the Davenport burglaries.
