KINGS DAUGHTERS
PLAN GIRLS HOME

Davenport, Aug. 3o.-A home for
girls which Is to be managed along
the general lines of the Y. w. G. A.
Headquarters in the different cities, Is
to be organized and equipped in Dav-
export under the management OF the
Kings Daughters Of Scott county.
Mrs. G. B. Drummond is In active
charge of the movement, which Is to
be financed In part by the county or
ganiLation of Kings Daughters, In
which society there are over dozen
different circles.
It is planned to start the home tn
a small way and build 1t up as funds
are available and as the institution
grows. At first but small head
quarters, such as suite of rooms in
some suitable location is planned, and
eventually as more facilities are need.
ed this could be increased to the size
and equipment of the Y. w. c. A. or
other girls homes in cities the size
of Davenport. ....
The home is not one for wayward
girls, but to serve as means OF Sc
curing employment for deserving ap.
plicants, as dormitories for girls not
living in the city and as a general
means Of social helpfulness.
The proposition is to be voted on by
all OF the different circles Of Kings
Daughters In the county and it is ex
pected that when all have pledged
their financial support that a head
quarters will be at once selected
some competent overseer or matror
to be placed in charge.

PLUMS GROW ON
ELDORA APPLE TREE

Eldora, Aug. 30.-Willian Schwebke
of this city, is the possessor of an ap-
pie tree that is surely something out
of the ordinary. Last season the tree
bore goodly quantity Of fruit, but
this year most Of the limbs give evil
dence of decay and death. Two Of
the limbs, however reaching out from
the now apparently lifeless trunk,
have upon them some twelve or four
teen good-sized. and lucious plums,
which fruit specialists pronounce
minor plums, with blush skins and
yellow meat. Not to Mr.. SchwebkeS
knowledge was the tree ever grated
with that of the plum, although ad-
jacent and near to the apple tree are
some very vigorous specimens Of the
plum variety.
A gentleman who has given consid-
cradle study to the fruit question Is OF
the opinion that with the near ap-
proach of death to the apple tree 1t
has in some manner reached out its
hidden roots to the kindly advances
of the neighboring plum and the lat
ter has given of it's strength and vital
ity so that the apple, while not able
to reproduce that Of it's kind, has en-
deavored to bring into the world the
fruit Of another stronger than itself.
The wizard Burbank may be able to
unravel this penomena, but as yet
none of the lay mind have the neces-
sary acquaintance with fruit TO under
stand
