BURGLARS RESORT
TO DAYLIGHT JOBS

The most daring robbery that has
nails recently, was that which occur
red in broad daylight at 4 o'clock in
the afternoon at All Sixteenth
street, one block south from the po-
lice station. Mrs. Charles Elliott,
returning from a neighborhood visit
about that hour, discovered that the
back door of her home was wide
open and further investigation
showed that the place had been ran
sacked. She reported the matter to
the police Immediately, and though
an officer made an investigation,
nothing has been learned by the po-
lice department aside from the fact
that there was robbery. Several
ing gold watch and a small
amount of money was taken.
The theft is one of a number that
have been reported recently to the
police. Others, perpetrated after
dark, have been equally successful
and often more fruitful for the rob-
| bers. The burglary of the Gottliet
Zwicker residence, 2410 Seventh
avenue, and the Mueller Lumber
company office, have been among
the list.
Scarcely a day passes without re
ports of burglaries. They are be
coming so common that the police
do not seem to regard them as i'm
portant.

SPLIT IN BOARD
OF BETHANY HOME
Moline Member Suggests the
Withdrawal From Local
Charitable Institution.
WANTS NEW HOME THERE
No Formal Action Has Been Taken
on Matter and 1t Is Hoped
That 1t VIII Fail.

Rumor that Moline member Of the
board Of directors of the Bethany
Home association is to withdraw from
that organization and to take up work
of like nature in Moline, was par
TALLY verified this afternoon by one
Of the members of the board from
Rock Island, while one of the mem
bers of the board from Moline said
that it had only been a vague within
of one of the Moline contingent. Since
the reorganization of the Associated
Charities Of Rock Island, the charita-
bic work accomplished in this city
has been considerably augmented and
the work placed on a systematic basis.
Because of this advance on the part
of the local association, the Moline
woman sought to institute change in
the policies.
CAN SELL HOME.
The Rock Island member stated
that the matter had been preached in
an informal way before the board and
that it would De up for consideration
at the next meeting which occurs Dec.
Il. That will be one of the principal
topics for consideration. Further, it
is reported that the Tri-City Railway
company has made an offer of pur-
chase of the present property and be-
cause the home as it is today is in
adequate to meet the needs of the
association, the proposition to sell will
be considered. Should the property
be sold, arrangements for new
home would he undertaken.
HOUSE IS INADEQUATE.
The fact that the organization OF
the charity work here has progressed
so far and that the home is made
quate to care for all the children, has
led to the proposed action by the Mo
line members. The work of the
board has been in perfect harmony al
along and on all questions of impor
lance there has been unanimity o
, opinion. Sh1Uld there be a division
of the association directors, it would
be loss to the communities con
, cerned, and On ali hands there is al
effort TO stay such action and 10 aver
: it.
ECONOMY TO UNITE.
A home Supported by the good PEG
pie of both cities and ample to car
for all children who need the PROV
sion of such an institution would un
doubtedly go farther in meeting tn,
: needs Of the people than anything
else. A home in each city for tn,
needs of each city would require prac
tically as much money and care as
e single home for the needs of bot
S cities.
= For that reason alone, action for
: severance of relations between the tw
cities should be cast aside.
) MRS. BENNETT DENIES.
Mrs. w. c. Bennett of Moline, pres
: dent of the board of directors, in COZ
versing with a representative of TIL
Argus this afternoon, said that Their
is little possibility of the propose
action being taken. She said that tn
relations between the board member
;, from the two cities were most annie;
J. BILE, and that 1t was her belief tht
II the institution would continue to :
r conducted as in the past.
