MAYOR SERVES NOTICE

The new mayor of Missouri Val
ley has served notice on the pub
lie that henceforth the curfewl or
dinance is to be enforced, and
that parents or guardians of child
rem under fifteen, who are found
oct without proper escort after min
O'Clock ait night, will be subject
to fine of $25 or imprisonment.
This seems to be about the only
way to get parents to see their
duty toward their children. The
street at night lis a school of vice,
and nothing else can be made of
it. To expose a child in this
manner to moral corruption is Grim
ipal. The fine really ought to be
bigger; and it ought to be i'm
posed every time there is occa-
sion for it.

THOSE DANGLING CoRPsEs

1t is reported by refugees, who
have recently come unto Texas from
Mexico, that human bodies are
hanging from nearly every tele-
graph pole along fifty miles of
railroad near the MEXICAN line.
Mexico seems to have get upon a
basis of perpetual welfare. There
lis NO peace in the harassed land,
and no prospect of any. Barbar-
ties which would putt shame to the
darkest ages of the past, are be-
ing practioed every where within
the borders of the nation. Both
sides, or rather all sides, seem
equally guilty There is no law,
and practically MO government. 1t
is the most revolving reign of ter
tor thai. the WESTERN world has
ever seen.
1t is none of our affair. The
Mexican's quarrels are their own
From humanitarian standpoint
it may seem that the atrocities
ought to be stopped. Yet is il
the proper thing to spill our owl
blood in restoring order in {
neighboring country.
One answer is that if we do so
we should take enough to pay nj
for the trouble as we did in, oul
former war with Mexico. 1t woult
really be good thing if some NOR
of that country were brought un
der the folds of Old Glory.

A RICH MANS FAITH

We have heard that it is cas-
der for a. camel to pass through
needles eye than for rich
man to enter the Kingdom of
Heaven. Yel the will of j. Pie ;
pont Morgan the worlds greatest
money king opened as folio IS:
81 commit my soul into the
hands of my saviour in full confi-
dnece that having received it and
washed it i'm his most precious
blood, he will present it faultless
before the throne of my Heavenly
father; and ] entreat my children
to maintain and defend at all haz-
ards and at amy cost of personal
sacrifice, the blessed doctrine of
the complete atonement for sin
through the blood of Jesus Christ,
once offered and through that
alone"
1T is hard to make these words
fit our conception of Mr.. Morgan 5
character. Who of us looked upon
him as a man of profound convic-
tiep and abiding faith in religion.
n Try as we may, we are still i'm
capable of Judging our fellow mem
Justly. Our judgmnet is warped
by suspicion, and our eyes are
blinded by prejudice. Mr.. Morgan
had wealth. When did he misuse
it? He had power. When did
he ever abuse it? He was ma ignee
and vilified INCREASINGLY. He did
not retaliate. He was able to
CRAFTY every desire. Yet his life
was simple, temperate and unof-
Tending.
Who among us can say that he
was am unrighteous man, or that
the faith that was in him shall
not be fulfilled? Or who cam tel
us just why our hearts have beer
set so hard against him sin thu
years gone by?

HEALTH A FACTOR IN SUCCESS

The largest factor contributing
to mans success is undoubtedly
health. 1t has been observed that

well when they are constipated.
For constipation you will find
nothing quite SO good as Cham

tion. They are sold by All Deal

Second Man Hunt Is Unpro.
ductive-Vens Has Appar-
emily Fled Country.

The second man hunt, engineered
by Sheriff Bruner and City Detective
Tom Cox yesterday, was productive of
no better results than the first one,
and Alfonso Vens, who is believed TO
have murdered the South Rock Island
dairyman, has apparently made clean
getaway.
Yesterday morning the sheriff re.
ceived word that a man answering to
Vens' description had been seen. in
Coal Valley. He was described as a
sandy haired man and fair complexion
When he arrived in town his shoes
were covered with mud and from all
appearances, he had been travelling
long and hard.
An automobile was secured and the
authorities Immediately got busy. They
traced the man from Coal Valley tC
Orion and thence to Sunny Hill, where
they learned their man had bought
a ticket for Peoria two days ago. A
careful inquiry, however, developed
the fact that the party was not Vens
and that the description did not tally
1t is likely that trip will be made
to Wheatland, Iowa, where Veins has
relatives.

TWO SMALL BOYS
TAKEN BY POLICE
Charged With Stealing Watch,
Razors and Tobacco from
Greek Bunk Cars.

Charged with the theft of some
watches, rasors, tobacco and matches
from Greek bunk cars, located in the
railroad yards at First avenue and
Thirteenth street, two boys, John and
Fred Raymond, aged IL and 10 respec-
lively, are being held at the police
station. The case is being investigat-
ed by Police Matron Schroeder and
Assistant States Attorney Edwards.
Shortly before 10 o'clock this morn
ing. the boys, who are cousins, were
observed to sneak away from the cars
in question. Their actions aroused
suspicion and they were taken to head
quarters. where a search of their
clothing revealed a quantity of what
is believed to be stolen property. Each
one of the lads had a razor, a silver
watch, a box of matches and a guam
tity of tobacco. They told the police
they had found part of the stuff in an
alley back of the Majestic hotel, and
the rest back of the Five and Ten
Cent" store. Their versions of the
finding we're at such wide variance,
that the police did not give much
credence to their stories.

Rock Island Speaker Fills
Place of George w. Ross in
First Of Club Series.

W. B. Mcintyre was speaker today
a. the first of the series of Thursday
noon luncheon talks. at the Rock Is

The speaker at first explained the
absence of George w. Ross, one of the
men responsible for the rapid develop
ment of East Moline. who was sched-
uled to speak at the club but who was
ill and therefore unable to be present.
The talk was characteristic of Nc

and the good fellowship spirit He
said he was proud to have the invi-
tation extended to him TO give the
luncheon talk
He referred to the talk that goes
around every time a census is taken.
He stated that at these occurrences
someone will shout that our sister city
has grown 5000 in population but
when it comes 10 the count Rock Is
land is still few hundred ahead. He
stated that the census now shows each
city to contain about 10000 people.
with Rock Island continuing a shade
the larger.
Several other members present were
called upon and few responded.
While the talk today was more OF an
entertaining nature it is planned that
the future ones shall be of the more
serious nature, brief and to the point
but at the same time driving home
facts pertaining to city building.
President H. s. Cable has planned
to continue these 10 minute talks on
Thursdays throughout the winter. and
as indicated they will be brief and
straight to The point so that the men,
bers may enjoy them without neglect
ing their business.
