Clarence Brangan Asked to Be Re-

Clarence Brangan of New Mexico
came to the city today and presented
himself before Judge R. w. Ohm
sted in the country court and asked
TO be relieved from the guardianship
of Ollie Marie Eaton, a girl who
was placed in his charge four years
ago. Soon after becoming her guar
dian he moved from this city to New
Mexico without asking leave Of the
court to take the child out of the
jurisdiction of the court. Nothing
was heard from him until recently
a letter was received by the judge
in which Brangan said he desired to
be relieved of the child as she
had become deaf and dumb. He asked
If someone from this county could
not be named as the child's guardian.
The child was removed from his
charge today and given into the GUS
tody of Miss Dina Ramser. 1t is
probable that the little girl will be
sent to some state charitable institu-

Governor C. S. Deneen has sent word

be unable to be here to speak at the
Washington day banquet which is to

seems that this contingency has been
removed. The feature on the pro-
gram now will be the address which
John NJ. MacVicar of Des Moines will

CHILD BURNS TO
DEATH IN HOME
Fire Catches Clothing of Five
Year Old Martha Peel
voorden.
PARENTS AWAY AT TIME
Screams of Children Attract NeighbOr
and Little Body Is Found Lying
Near Stove in Kitchen.

Five-year-Old Martha Poelvoorden,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs August Peel
voorden, 1919 Thirty-ninth street. suf-
fered a terrible fate yesterday after
noon at 5 o'clock, when in some mys-
FERROUS way her clothing caught fire,
and she was burned to death.
The child, with three others. all of
whom were even younger, ranging
from four years TO three months. was
alone in the home. the father being
away at work and the mother being
engaged in work across the street from
her house. The screams of the three
youngest children attracted the atten-
ton of several neighbors, and it was
discovered that fire was in progress
in the little home. An alarm was turn
ed in TO the department at once, and
in a very short time the No. wagon
arrived on the scene and extinguished
the slight blaze. which was confined
to an old couch and some furniture in
the kitchen.
Child Found Dead.
The little girl was found lying dead
Ou the hOOl vi tllt hiNNlltH. All utl
clothing had been burned off her, and
only a few spots of skin remained up
on her entire body. She had been dead
for some time before the fire was dis
covered. The house was filled with
smoke, and the other three children
were almost suffOcated when taken
from the house. but beyond being
frightened none of them is in serl-
Gus way. Mrs. Poelvoorden was
among the first TO arrive at the house
after the discovery of the fire She
found her child dead, and became al
most frantic with grief. The remains
were carefully placed in an old baby
carriage and covered up by some of
the neighbors, and Mrs. POelvoorden
and her three remaining children were
taken away from the scene of the dis
aster. 1t was feared that some of the
younger children might be seriously
injured and arrangements were made
at once for taking two of them and
the mother to St. AnthOny's hospital,
where they still are today.
Fires Origin a Mystery.
Just how the fire started and how it
caught the clothing of the child is
mystery which is hard to explain and
which may never be satisfactorily &C
counted for. 1t is believed, however,
that the little girl was trying to re-
plenish the fire in the stove. which
was nearly out. 1t seemed that the
child was trying to empty the oil from
a lamp into the stove in order to make
the fire catch more quickly, and it is
possible that the oil spilled over her
clothing, or else the flames hared out
and caught her before she could get
back after throwing the oil in. The
stove lid was lying on the floor near

SALOON LICENSE
NOW $500 AYEAR
Increase Adopted by Council
Will Bring $4,000 Addi-
tional Into Treasury.
DEFEAT $3.50 AMENDMENT
Only Two Aldermen Support $3.50
Raise-Ordinance Is Effect
i've May 1.

Beginning May 1 next the saloon H.
cense in Rock Island will be $500 per
annum. An increase Of 500 was made
by the city council at it's meeting last
evening IN the adoption OF an amend.
ment to the ordinance offered by Aid
erman NJ. J. Frick. chairman OF the
ordinance committee. Alderman z. J..
Ellinwood offered an amendment to
the ordinance making the annual IL
cense $3.50, and he was seconded by
Alderman Martin McNealy. But the
amendment was defeated by the fol-
lowing vote:
Ayes-McNealy, Ellinwood-2.
Nays - Blochlinger, Holzhammer,
Carse, Utke. La Vanway, Thompson,
Frick, Schmid. Cochran, Lawler, Borst
Ill,
The members Of the city council have
been celebrating on the saloon license
question for weeks, and doubtless the
$3.50 increase would have carried but
for the pressure of the saloon inter
ests. Those aldermen who expect to
be candidates to succeed themselves
at the spring election had it made
i
the support Of the saloon vote they
would not support raise in excess Of
500. The increase in the saloon H.
cense will bring into the city treasury
approximately $4,000 annually.
Frame Additions Permitted.
Permission was given to w. G.
Maucker to build frame addition at
the south end OF the Hotel Dietz, Fiji
teenth street and Fourth avenue, and
to w. w. Stephenson to erect a frame
addition to his store at 1925 Fourth
avenue, on condition that both would
observe the ordinance requirements in
the fire limits. Mr. Maucker expects
eventually to erect an entirely new
building on his property at Fifteenth
and Fourth.
An ordinance providing for the lay
ing of water mains on Thirty-seventh
street, Fourteenth to Eighteenth ave
nues, and on Eighteenth avenue. Thir-
ty-sixth to Thirty-seventh streets, was
adopted. The whole improvement will
cost $3,1S6.7O.
All Wires Under Surface.
1t was ordered that the officials of

graph companies be requested to join
with the Central Union and Union
Electric telephone companies in plac-
ing their wires under ground in the
fire district. The clerk was instructed
to communicate with Colonel F. L.
Hobbs, commandant at Rock Island
arsenal, on the establishment of a
footpath at the side of the street rail
way bridge at FOrty-second street for
the accommodation of arsenal work
men whose homes are in the east end
Of Rock Island and west end Of Mo

IS agreeable TO the arrangement, but
1t will first be necessary to obtain the /

this must be had through the com |.

the body. This most probable theory
does not meet with the approval of
one Of the neighbors, who says that
the Poelvoorden family had no oil in
the house at the time, as she had loan
ed them enough the evening before TO
last during the night. At any rate,
the fire was caused in some such way
as this. The theory that the children
were playing with matches seems
most improbable.
Is PitIabIe Case.
The tragic death of the girl brings
10 light most pitiable case of suffer
ing. Recently the father of the chill
dren engaged in a brawl and used
knife, and was arrested. The paying
of the fine required a mortgage on the
little house and in addition took all
his worldly possessions. He found It
hard TO retain job and he had switch
ed around from one place to another,
living in the interim from hand 10
mouth. The mother did her share of
the providing by going out and doing
washing for such Of her neighbors as
could afford to pay her for the service.
She was away on such a mission at the
time she lost her daughter. Today
she is grief-striclIen and almost hyster-
ical, but her physician believes she
will recover shortly, and he entertains
no fears for the welfare of the three
remaining children.

afternoon Nanny Buskirk and son

jured by an explosion which occurred
while they were on a creek and while
the dynamite was in their hands. We
understand that Nanny Buskirk's
leg was broken and that Mr.. Flagg $
arms were so badly mangled that am.

essary. He was much weakened by
loss of blood. However, DIR. Six who
attended them is of the opinion that
they will recover.
