BANDITS RIG FOUND
BY LOCAL OFFICERS
Had Been Left in an Alley Where 1t
Remained Undiscovered Until
Yesterday Afternoon.

The Rock Island police have found
the buggy used by the Orion safe
crackers in driving from that town
10 Rock Island and the suspicious
that the tri-cities are the headquar-
tiers for the bandits is stronger than
ever before The missing rig, which
belongs to James Carson of Orion,
had been standing in an alley in the
rear of S14 Eleventh avenue ever
since Thursday morning, at which
time it must have been left there by
the robbers themselves or by con-
federate. more likely the latter. The
crooks showed cleverness in leaving
the rig where they did for. although
it was in plain sight, it stood in such
a place that those who saw it sup
posed it belonged to the owner of
the stable which opened into the al
ley near there. The police finally
noticed it yesterday afternoon, how
ever. and then the identity of the
outfit was discovered. The harness
and lap robe were in the buggy.
The ROBBERS were kind enough to
leave in the buggy the Christmas pres
ent Mr.. Carson had purchased for his
wife and had secreted in the rig. 1t
was silk lined sewing basket. Mr..
Carson came to Rock Island today for
the buggy and the present

OLSON GRACEFULLY
GAINS THE STORM
Moline Mayor Names Commission of
Citizens to Pass Upon Water
Question.

Mayor Andrew Olson of Moline has
Gained the storm that was brewing
around him as a result of the formal
manner in which he handled a petition
addressed to the city council by 81
women's organizations anent the water
supply there by appointing a commits
sion 10 pass upon the whole PROPOSE
ton. Those whom he has named are
William ButterworJh G. A. Stephens,
W. l.. Velie, DR.. W. Z. Taylor and p.
S. McGlynn. The women claim that
the health of the city is endangered
because the intake pipe which delivers
the city water supply is so located that
the water is polluted by sewage from
the Watertown hospital and that there
is a possibility of a typhoid fever cpl
demic. The women are urging the
council! TO extend the pipe to
the middle of the Mississippi. The
commission appointed by the mayor is
vested with absolute authority. II will
hear arguments on both sides and pre-
sent its conclusions and recommends
tions to the city council. Thus the
mayor gracefully passes the RESPONSE
bility from himself and the council 10
the shoulders of a committee composed
of five OF the most able and prominent
men of the community.

BRIDES MOTHER OBJECTS
Sends Orders From Kansas City to
Intercept Runaway Daughter
Who Comes Here.

Yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock,
Miss Pauline Dilthy of Kansas City,
Mo-, and Fred G.. Gray of Los An
geles, Cal, were united in marriage
at the parsonage of the First Meth
odist church, Rev. T. E. Newland
officiating. For some time the
groom has been employed in one of
the Davenport hotels.
Shortly after the marriage of the
couple the Davenport police received
telegram from Chief of Police Crit
fen of Kansas City asking that they
watch for Miss Dilthy, who had run
away from her home, presumably to
marry Gray, and that if found, to
hold her till the arrival of her moth
er. This morning the young people
were located in one of the Daven-
port hotels, where they registered.
and the police have them under
their protection now.
MOTHER SAYS SHE'S II.
In the marriage license the
groom's age is given as 81 and the
brides as 20. In the telegram re-
ceived by the Davenport officers it
is claimed that the girl is IT and
Gray 20, and so the marriage would
be unlawful. The mother of the
bride asks only that her daughter be
held till she arrives. The couple is
under the care of the Davenport po-
lice and will be held till Mrs. Dilthy
arrives from Kansas City.
The romance of the young couple
started some time ago when the
groom was employed in one of the
Kansas City hotels. The girls par
ents objected to Gray.

LAST OF LAMBS IS
A MOLINE YOUTH
Arthur Hoffman Drops $500 in
the Turf Joint Just Before
Closing Order Is Given.
DRAWS ON HIS MOTHER
Complains That Games Were Crook
ed-Paraphernalia Moved
Across River.

The last sufferer from the crooked
gambling system which Sheriff o. L.
Bruner put out of commission yes
Jerday was Arthur Hoffman of Mo-
line. Hoffman presented himself to
the sheriff late in the afternoon and
asked the officer to recover $400
which he had lost in the joint over
the Turf saloon on Eighteenth
street. He told the sheriff that he
had bucked up against number
of different games and had lost so
quickly on each that he was con-
WINGED that they we're crooked. The
money he lost. he admitted. belong
checks on her account for that
amount and he wanted to get the
sum back. Sheriff Bruner told the
young man that if he would swear
out a warrant against the proprietors
of the place he would be glad to
serve the papers on them, but that
otherwise he could not help him, as
he did not intend to make his Of
flee a clearing house for those who
went UP against fixed" apparatus
and when worsted merely wanted
their money back.
DIDN'T WANT WARRANT.
Hoffman didn't want to have the
gamblers arrested, however. He re-
fused to swear out the warrant,
whereupon the sheriff told him that
the Office could do nothing for him.
The sheriff's move of yesterday
morning when he called all the
gambling house proprietors togeth-
er and ordered them to pack up
their tools and quit business at
once will probably prevent any more
such cases as that of Hoffman. The
percentage of those who squeal when
bitten by the gamblers is very small,
but the fact that there have been a
dozen of them in the last year, shows
just what the gamblers we're getting
away with. The stand taken by
Sheriff Bruner doubtless VIII have
immediate effect, and there will be
no more young fellows calling at the
sheriff. office with stories of being
fieeced out of money which did not
belong TO them.

every one who takes upon him

garded in the council as the father Of
the fire alarm system which Rock Is

thing. at least, during his two terms
in the council that should hold his
name in grateful remembrance through
all generations yet to come The auto
matte fire alarm idea was born long
before Alderman Frick became a cog
in the municipal government. But il
had been passed up year after year I'M
til Prick took hold of it and doggedly
fought for it until the city ordered it.
And the city will never regret the day
that it did So
