GIRL STILL ABSENT
FROM FATHERS HOME
No Word From Hazel Wiegand WhI
Leaves for Parts Unknown at
Early Hour.

Though a thorough search has been
conducted to learn of the whereabouts
Of Miss Hazel Wiegend, who left her
home early yesterday morning, moth
ing has been learned Nth the excep-
ton that she headed for the Burling
ton depot in Rock Island She is the
15-year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
John c. Wiegand. Her father is the
lockkeeper at Lock No. 81 at the
mouth of the Hennepip canal at Rock
river. Yesterday morning when her
parents went to her room to arouse
her she was gone. 1t was learned
that she packed her clothes into a
suit case, took what money she had,
boarded a Milan car for Rock Island
at the Davis power dam, came here,
and it is thought left via the Burling-
ton for parts unknown. Rumor of
elopement was thrown into the dis
card when it was learned that the
young man with whom she had been
keeping company was at home and
knew nothing of her going. Domestic
discord, brought about by the girls
refusal to obey, is thought the cause
of her mysterious disappearance.

Washington, Jan. 4.-Rear Admiral
Robley D. Evans. Fighting Bob" to
an admiring nation, died suddenly
late yesterday afternoon at his home
in this city. Acute Indigestion ended
the career of one of the most popular
officers Of the navy. He was i'll less
than two hours.
At his bedside at the time Of his
death were his wife, his daughter,
Mrs. II. !. Sewall, and his daughter
in-law, Mrs. Frank T. Evans, wife Of
the admiral only son, a lieutenant
commander in the navy, now on duty
on the torpedo boat destroyer Mona
han at Boston. The only other men,
Der of his immediate family who was
not present was his daughter, Mrs.
Marsh, wife of Captain Charles c..
Marsh, commanding the armored
cruiser North Carolina.
The news spread with great rapid
ity and caused a profound shock in
official circles. President Taft was
one Of the first to express his grief
and to send condolences.
DESERTS VIRGINIA'S CAUSE.
Robley Dunglison Evans was one of
the most picturesque characters of
many that developed in the war OF
the rebellion. When that war broke
out he was midshipInan in the
Naval academy and a mere boy. He
was born Aug. Is, 1916, in Floyd coun.
ty, Virginia. His family pleaded with
him to return and own allegiance to
his state. Relatives, including a
brother, fought on the confederate
side.
Evans was graduated a year ahead
of time and appointed an ensign in
1868. He was one of four who volun
teered TO lead the storming party CT
about 100 at Fort Fisher and won the
perilous honor by the toss of a coin
He was the first to mount the scaling
ladder and was wounded in both legs
NEARLY LOSES HIS LEGS.
Surgeons wished to amputate hi!
legs, but he flourished a revolver anC
threatened to use IL. After months
of suffering he was able 10 limp abou
and was placed on the retired list
but pleaded so effectually for activ,
service that both houses Of congress
passed a resolution restoring him t,
the active list and exempting hin
from physical examination.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1912-01-04

For his bravery at Fort Fisher
Evans was advanced 80 numbers and
at the age of 20 was a lieutenant.
Two years later he was lieutenant
commander.
Ten years of service found him, in
1878, promoted to be commander.
Meantime, in 1871, he had married
Virginia woman, Charlotte, daughter
of Frank Taylor, in Washington.
From this union sprang a son and
two daughters. The son, Frank, fol-
lowed his fathers footsteps, being
graduated from the Naval academy
and appointed to the navy, and the
daughters married naval officers.
HONORED BY KAISER.
AS a captain he was sent in COM
mand of the cruiser New York to take
part in the great naval display at
Kiel. Emperor William and Prince
Henry dined with him and showed
him many honors.
In 1896 Evans was transferred to
the Indiana, the first battleship COM
missioned by the United States. Dur
ing the war with Spain he was in
command of the Iowa and took a
conspicuous part in the battle of San
tiagO. At one time during the fight
/ the entire Spanish fleet was concen-
trated on the Iowa.
! Feb. II, 1901, Evans was advanced
to the rank of rear admiral. When
Prince Henry of Prussia visited the
United States in 1902 he was his es-
cort, representing the navy.
For two years-1902 to 19O4-he
was commander in chief of the Ash.
attic station, and from 1905 to 1907 he
commanded the Atlantic fleet. When
the feet set forth on its tour of the
world, in the autumn of 1907, he was
appointed commander in chief anC
journeyed on his flagship, the Con
necticut, on the memorable triE
around Cape Horn and to the Pacific
coast.
DISABLED ON VOYAGE.
Part of the time he was disabled BY
a complication of diseases, and he lief
the fleet before it reached San Fran
cisco to go to health resort, though
joining it for the grand procession
into the Golden Gate.
Upon his 62d birthday, Aug. Is
1908, Rear Admiral Evans was retired

BOARD CONSIDERS
BUILDING PLANS
A. G. Hill Prepares Tentative
Drawings for Manual
Arts Structure.
is A TWO STORY AFFAIR
FireproOf Throughout and VIII Be
Credit TO Rock Island School
System

Tentative plans for the new manual
arts building, which Rock Island ia
soon to have, were placed before the
board of education last night by Me-
chanical Drawing Supervisor A G.
Hill. The board spent the greater
part Of the evening discussing the de-
tails OF the proposed new buildings.
It will be a comprehensive one and
will be a credit to Rock Islands al
ready efficient school system.
At a previous meeting of the board
Mr.. Hill had been given instructions
to draw plans illustrating and incor-
porating different ideas which were
board members. Immediately after
the trip Of the building committee TO
Chicago, Mr.. Hill went to work.
PROPOSED PLANS.
The plans contemplate a building
which will be entirely fireproof and
which will have ground dimensions of
11Ox110 feet. There are to be two
stories and the basement.
In the basement will be located the
heating plant which incidentally Will
in all probability be made TO heat not
only the new building but the high
school and the Lincoln school build
ings as well, wash and toilet rooms,
machine shop. forge room and a room
suitable for a foundry when one is
needed at a later date.
The first floor will contain wood
working room, lathe room, finishing
room, storage room for lumber and
a demonstration room. This latter
room will be used by the classes
when the theoretical parts of their
studies are being taught.
On the second floor will be cooking
and sewing rooms, mechanical and
free hand drawing rooms, and physi-
cal and chemical laboratories.
WILL RELIEVE HIGH SCHOOL.
The new building will tend TO re-
lieve the pressure for room now so
apparent at the high school. The
rooms which are at present devoted
TO manual training. drawing and do
nestle arts could be converted into
class or session rooms. Under exist
ing conditions there are not enough
rooms for the various instructors and
the capacity of the high school is
soreIy tried.
More ideas were advanced last
night at the board meeting and Mr.
Hill win change his drawings in &C.
cordance. When the board has the
tentative drawings of just what il
wants in the way of a new manual
arts building, it will begin active
preparation for erecting it.
