Saturday night and Sunday were
the most quiet periods in years as
far as the police department was
concerned and in all that while but
three or four offenders were Arrest
that it was so quiet may be attribut-
ed to the Fourth of July celebration
which was the extreme opposite. The
jewellers on that occasion filled the
police station and one celebration
a week is the limit anyhow. Cliff
ford Wood was raising quite a dis
turbance in the Rock Island house
Saturday night while under the in
fluence of liquor. He was arrested
and this morning was fined 81 and
costs for drunkenness. John Wun-
der, who was arrested several weeks
ago by Detective Caulfeld. was ar
rested again Saturday night by the
same officer and for precisely the
same offense. The fellow had been
drinking heavily and though he had
a little change in his pocket, he was
begging for more He bumped into
the detective and asked for some
money and Immediately was placed
under arrest. This time he was sent
down to the county jail for 20 days
while on the other and first offense
here he was fined a small sum.
FOR OBSCENE LANGUAGE
Jacob Zabolsky, who was arrested
Saturday for using obscene Ian
guage on complaint of neighbors,
will be given a hearing Friday morn
ing at o'clock as his case was con-
tinued till that hour when 1t was up
for hearing this morning.

NO MORE BATHS
ALONG THELEvEE
Severe Penalties for Swimming
in River Between Seven
teenth and Nineteenth.
NOW FORBIDDEN BY LAW
Commission Adopts an Ordinance
Covering the Subject-Talk
Bathing Beach.

Hereafter the person who battles in
the Mississippi river or Of the levee
between Seventeenth and Nineteenth
streets is liable to be assessed heavily
for so doing. following action taken
this morning by the city commission
in the passage of an ordinance prohib-
iting such conduct Said action follow
ed complaint by Commodore NJ. L. Hen
derson of the Rock Island-Davenpor
ferry line, who stated that the danger
to life because of probable contact
with the wheels of the steamers is so
great and therefore the practice should
be abolished.
The commodore lodged complaint
few weeks ago and the city attorney
was thereupon instructed TO draw up
an ordinance against the practice. He
did so. and this morning 1t was pre-
sented by Mayor Harry NJ. Schriver for
adoption. II was passed unanimously.
The penalty clause provides for a max
imum fine Of 500, but no minimum
amount is specified.
PLAN SWIMMING BEACH.
mates danger 10 life and furthermore
stops the practice Of several men who
have been in the habit of using the
levee as a dressing room. In order to
provide for the boys and men, Mayor
Schriver has under consideration a
plan to establish a swimming beach
which will cost the city very little. He
intends going over the shore line and
expects to find a place in the vicinity
of Twelfth street which will be suita-
BILE for bathing. 1t will be away from
danger of boats and will also be shall
low enough to provide safety to the
swimmers. A certain part will be sur
rounded by ropes. and if the bathers
stay within the limits there will be
little danger of accident.
FIRST ABSENTEE.
Commissioner r. r. Reynolds of the
department Of streets and public i'm
provements is out of the city at pres
ent and his absence from the meeting
was the first since the new body took
over the administration of city affairs.
There was little of Importance before
the council this morning. but several
matters were disposed of. The Peo-
pies Power company was allowed
$931.31 for work at the filter plant A
voucher for $9,2592O was issued by the
city clerk in favor of the D. E. Keller
Construction company for work on the
Seventh ward west section of the sew
eT system. An ordinance was adopted
to allow J. G. Scheuermann to lay a
six-inch water main in his addition in
the southwest portion of Rock Island
NJ. NJ. Sturgeon was licensed to widen
the street west of his property at
Twelfth street and Fourth avenue so
that he could have sufficient room be-
tween the curb and the car line there
for driveway
WITHHOLD PAYMENT.

for part payment for the work on the
Rock river bridges because the steel
material is on hand and the work is

THIEVES MAKE A
RAID AT M'CABE'S
Burglars Effect an Entrance
Through a Window in the
Second Story.
MAKE A COSTLY HAUL
SfIverzare and Fountain Pens Were
Only Things Taken-Po1ice at
Work ON CIews.

Creeping through toilet room WIN
dows onto a one-story building roof
and then prying open some bars which
were used for protection Of windows,
burglars gained entrance TO the l. s.
McCabe & Co. department store Sat
urday night and carried on more than
$1,000 worth Of silverwaYe and foun-
tain pens. The fact that the store had
been robbed was not discovered until
this morning when the clerks reported
for work It was Immediately report
ed to the police, who are working on
several clews.
KNEW THEIR GROUND.
Whoever it was that carried out the
plans for the robbery was well &C
quatnted with the surroundings, and
the fact that # required little effort TO
effect an entrance There is no watch
man In the building on Saturday nights
and only the merchants patJolman is
on duty. Therefore, the burglars had
simply TO keep watch against one on
Ger. They went into the Robinson
building on Eighteenth street and Sec
ond avenue and onto the roof of the
building adjoining. 1t was an easy
matter to tear on the old. worn bars
over the window IN the store, as they
were simply held by few short screws.
The window was then forced and the
intruders were free TO carry out their
plans.
MAKE BIG HAUL.
Evidently they loaded the silverware
mostly knives, forks and spoons
into suit cases and then left by the
same route by which they had gained
entrance. A rough estimate this morn
ing fixes the value OF the stolen goods
at from 81 500 70 $4,000. Several foun-
tain pens were included in the loot As
far as is known nothing else was dis
turbed.
Six or seven years ago the store
was robbed. the burglars gaining en-
trance in about the same manner as
was employed this time. The job at
that time was the work of profession
ais, but II is the opinion of the police
that the one of Saturday night was
carried out by amateurs. The bars
over the windows Of the store are TO
be replaced with better and stronger
ones. and it will require something
more than a slight pull hereafter TO
break in. The Waterman will be de-
tailed for duty on seven nights here
after.
