LOcKET CONE FOR
YEARS RESTORED
Davenport Woman Receives Family
Heirloom Stolen in 1901-N0
Explanation Given.

After many years OF waiting with a
restless soul and a scared conscience
a repentant brother again used Uncle
Sam 10 relieve his mind and added
something of unique nature to the
conscience fund" The unusual arti-
Gle added to the conscience fund is a
silver locket with gold lining, a
family heirloom, worth $50, but with
unlimited intrinsic value.
1t was more than Il years ago that
Mrs. Jesse Thordsen, then Miss Hazel
Wade, girl of Is, was given sur
prise party at her home. a number
of boys and girls came TO the place.
The little hostess grandmother, Mrs.
William Morgan, gave her the locket-
just to wear during the evening.
Proudly the girl walked among her
friends and playmates She showed
them the locket and told them all
about it. Toward the end Of the
evening she missed it. She told them
about it. One of the boys at the party
was suspected, but she was not sure.
So the boys and girls went home and
the locket was still missing.
Nothing had been heard of it until
few days ago when it was received
in neatly encased box, 1t had been
mailed at Des Moines and the writing
on the outside was not familiar TO
Mrs. Thordsen. She opened the pack
age and the locket dropped out-the
same one her grandmother had let her
wear in that evening long ago. There
was no note of explanation inside the
ackage-merely the locket itself
we priced it very highly" said
Mrs. Thordsen to a reporter, because
| it had been in the family so long My
! grandmother had received it from her
mother, and it was very, very old"
When stolen it was the property OF
the grandmother. A few years age

DAVENPORT BARS
ARE BEINCLEASED
". Y. Gray. Main Street operator. Sells
Location for Dairy Lunch After
First of Year.

Already there is demand in DaV-
export for the choice saloon locations
to be vacated on Jan. /. at which time
the prohibitory Law becomes effective,
W. F. Gray, one Of Davenports best
known bar proprietors, has sold ms
lease to the premises at 30 Main
street, known as The Club" to a Chi
cago firm who as soon as Mr. Gray va
Gates will install a dairy lunch busl-
ness in the place.
viii any of the Davenport saloon
keepers fight the new law" Mr.. Gray
was asked. no, not as far as
know" he replied. viii the brew
cries fight it?" he was next asked.
and to which he replied, u think not. =
Speaking for himself only, Mr.. Gray
said: II will close my saloon the last
day Of the year and turn the keys over
to the new tenants without a murmur.
Il believe in respecting the laws, no
matter if they may be Of my disliking.
Laws are supposed to represent the
wish OF the majority and when they no
longer do this they should be taken
off the statute books"
Mr.. Gray is of the belief that pro-
hibition is not only to be enforced in
Iowa, but that it will sweep the nation
before a reaction sets in and he does
not look for such a reaction in less
than ten years.
