Hotdup Artists FaiI.-william Hale
and Charles q. Colby, two performers
on this weeks bill at the American
theatre, had thrilling experience with
holdup men late Tuesday night. After
the performance that evening. the two
men went TO Rock Island to get a
glimpse of the burning lights in that
town after Davenport had reposed in
darkness. They returned to Daven-
port shortly after midnight and we're
proceeding 1eisurely up Main street,
when suddenly, as they reached the
alley adjoining the Hotel Davenport.
they were taken unawares by encoun-
tering two men, who. thrusting revolv-
ers into their faces, commanded them
to hold up their hands, at the same
time backing them into the alley.
Hale, as soon as he had partly recov-
cred from the shock Of having a gun
leveled in his face. broke away from
the men, and reaching the street, gave
the alarm. The holdup men thereupon
abandoned their task and beat a hasty
retreat through the alley back of the
Masonic temple. Had the holdup men
succeeded in robbing their intended
victims, they would have made a rich
haul. Both men had nearly $500 each
on their persons.

DAVENPORT

No Bettendorf WiIl.-The late w. p
Bettendorf left no will. During life
he had made number OF provisions
for those he desired to remember out
side of his natural heirs, and It was
his desire that after death his remain
ing estate should be distributed ac-
cording to law. Under these condi-
lions the widow will receive one-third
OF the estate, and the remaining two
thirds will go to the aged parents, Mr..
and Mrs NJ. Bettendorf. Mrs. o. w.
Kulp, nee May Bettendorf, q child
raised by Mr.. Bettendorf, and given
the same care and devotion as a nat
ural child. but who was never legally
adopted, Is amply provided for. as Mr..
Bettendorf makes her the entire ben
eficiary OF q $4,000 life insurance pol
icy carried In the Northwestern Mu-
tual Life Insurance company OF Mil
waukee. Another insurance policy in
the sum OF $4,000, carried in the
Equitable Of New York, goes to the
estate and will therefore be divided,
one-thfrd to the widow and two-thirds
to the parents. 1t would be a dincult
matter to place q valuation on the es-
tate left by Mr.. Bettendorf. The vast
manufacturing plant he leaves as a
monument in Bettendorf undoubtedly
has a commercial valuation OF two or
more million dollars, and the patents
owned by him are variously estimated
to be worth all the way from $4,000. 900

In the records of the police station

was responsible for the injuries infict-
ed upon Off1cer Lagrange, soon after
his advent to Daven port, will soon be
released from St Johns department
of Mercy hospital His condition dur
ing the past several days has improv-
ed to such an extent that his release
Is considered safe. The Authorizations
which overcame him and which were
the cause of his maniacal actions
shortly before his detention have for
the most part disappeared. In his
more rational periods Caldwell ex-
plains how he happened TO stop off at
Davenport while enroute to Chicago
He stated to the officers in charge of
him that he left the train because he
thought another train was running on
top OF the one in which he was riding
at the time. He also asserts that he
thought the officer who tried to ar
rest him was a trainman who was en-
deavoring to put him back in the
train. When he Is released he will be
sent back to his home whence he
came.

You don't need a
laundress

You can do your own washing,
if you use P. AND G.-The White
Naphtha Soap.
The work is surprisingly easy.
The soap does most of it.
Take, as an example, this method
of washing white clothes:
Dip each piece in lukewarm water Rub
soap on the soiled parts and roll up. Pack
rolls in tub and cover with lukewarm mot
hot water. Let them soak half am hour or
longer. Fill tub half full of lukewarm mot
hot) water; unroll each piece and rub soed
parts the dashboard. using fresh soap. The
dirt will come out with little or no rubbing.
Rinse in two warm waters and blue in third
cooler water. Excepting in cases of sickness,
clothes need not be boiled. Hang them up to
dry in sunshine and fresh air.
Isn't it simpler than your pres
ent method?
