Girl Invents Fruit Punch,

Helen Taft. daughter of the presi-
dent elect, is the inventor Of a fruit
punch for tennis parties and other in
formal outdoor affairs that Is said to
be one Of the most delectable Of
drinks. She guarded the recipe jeal-
ously through the last summer. but
shortly before she went to Bryn Mawr
confided 1t to a friend, with the usual
result. Hundreds Of young girls now
are In possession Of the one time Sc
cret. and it's safe to say that by next
summer the punch will be made by
half the young women in American
society. To prepare 1t boil together for
five minutes pint Of water, a pound
Of sugar and the chopped rind Of a
lemon. Strain the fluid and slice two
bananas into it while 1t is hot. Add a
grated pineapple and a quarter pound
Of stoned cherries. Then squeeze the
juice Of six lemons into the bowl
shortly before serving. But that isn't
all, for block Of ice must be placed
in the bowl and two quarts Of soda
water poured over 1t before the fruit
mixture Is put in. Slice dozen big
strawberries and drop them into the
bowl, stirring vigorously. The result
is said to be drink fit for goddesscs,
to say nothing Of schoolgirls.

LIGHT VOTE in
ALL COUNTIES
Present Judges Are All Reflect
ed, Though w. r. Moore
Makes Good Showing.
SPECIAL TAX IS BEATEN
Proposition Goes Down for Third
Time by Overwhelming Majority
One Precinct for Ii.

The returns of the judicial election
yesterday indicate that only about q
third of the normal vote of the district
was cast, and very little interest was
manifested in the contest for the posi-
ton as circuit judges. The three pres
ent Judges were reelected easily, al
democratic ticket made good show
ing, and polled a fine vote considering
all things He had made no special
campaign, and had in fact, until the
last four days, done practically moth
ing in the way of campaigning for the
place. Mr. Moore led the republican
candidates by several hundred in his
own town. He evidently was given
the general support of the democrats.
Tax Benten Again.
The interest in the election in Rock
Island county was centered more par
ticularly in the tax proposition, which
went down in defeat for the third time
by a big majority. The vote in the
cities was strongly against the tax
and in the country precincts the Senti
ment against the measure was evi
dently even more general. Only one
precinct in the county carried the
proposition, CordOva giving it a M
jority vote In Black Hawk, where
Supervisor ID. w. Matthews eXerted
his influence against the proposition
the vote was almost unanimously
against the measure The people o.
the county, while not unmindful o
the straits of the county, are not sat
isfied with the way the county's bust
ness has been managed, and are no
inclined to adopt this method of ad
justing the difficulty.

Has n Family.

Alexander, who was about AZ years
of age and is survived by a wife and
several children, formerly lived On
Fifth-and-ashalf avenue between Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth streets in this
city. The family came here several
years ago from Knoxville, Ill. The
husband and father bore good repu-
tation.
Last April he arranged to conduct
the old Holland brick yard in South
Moline now owned by Henry Fluegel,
ST., of this city. Mr.. Fleugel loaned
the negro 1928 to help him get started,
taking note. A few weeks later
Alexander, according to the story told
here, informed Mr. Fluegel that he
needed $3.50 to buy team and COM
plete arrangements to make brick
Mr.. Fluegel advanced this sum also.
Left the City.
1t appears that Alexander did moth
ing with the brick yard, but soon after
receiving the second sum quietly took
his family and left the city. He was
traced to Canton and a warrant for OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses
sworn out here.
