ANCIENT CAPITAL CONTEST.

The capital contest between Guth-

Israel, and Jerusalem. the capital Of
Judah You know after King Solo

ordered to send to Jerusalem young

crimes Of deception and misrepre-

WILL NOT REPEAT STUNT
Three Days Away From Home Prove
Enough-Rock Island Man
Locates the Lad.
WILL NOT REPEAT STUNT

Tired and worn, sorry that he had
left his home and glad to embrace
the opportunity to return, Fay Rid
enour, 14-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. r. A. Ridenour, 544 Twenty
Sixth avenue, Moline, returned to his
parents home last evening. He was
found in the home of Mr.. Crawford
who resides on a farm a mile south
Of Milan. Saturday afternoon after
the boy left his home, he walked out
across the Rock river bridge back of
Moline. On the road south, he was
cvertaken by Mr.. Crawford and
obliged by him with a lift to his
home. The boy asked for a Job. He
was kept Saturday, Sunday and Mon
day till evening.
FOUND BY CHANCE.
The finding of the boy was due to
the veriest chance. A well-known
Rock Island man saw the account of
the boys disappearance in The Argus
last night and discussed it with his
own family. The discussion was
relevant as the boy OF the family had
spent Sunday noon and part of the
afternoon away from home without
having first advised his parents. A
daughter of the family, who is EN-.
ployed as a school teacher, then re.
lated having heard of boy who haC
run away from home and gone to e
farm back of Milan. This fact wa!
connected with the story in The Ar
gus and the telephone was brought
into play and the runaway boy wal
! located after which the Rock Island
man got into Communication will
Mr.. Ridenour and informed him o.
the whereabouts Of his son.
JOYOUS HOMECOMING.
It was q most Joyous Homecoming
for the boy. His mother, nearl.
frantic with the news that her DO.
intended to take his life, conveyed II
her In q brief note that he fastene'
10 the barndoor lock, was overjoye,
by his return. Her son assures he
that he will never be 80 rash again.
