YOUTH HAS SOME RIGHTS

The Davenport Democrat is anoth
er newspaper that believes children
should be permitted to skate on the
sidewalks. The following sentiment
is expressed by that publication that
will find an echo in the minds oi
local children:
1T is hardly to be believed that the
police are in earnest in their notice
to- Davenport youth that they are
liable to arrest if they skate on the
Sidewalks.
Youth has some rights in this mat.
ter, and also some responsibilities.
Skating IN groups that barred the
pedestrian from the walk or annoyed
him unnecessarily might well be dis
Outraged. But the walks are for
young and old, and if the young want
to skate instead of walk. there is no
reason why they should not have the
privilege, so long as they are interfer.
ing with no one else's free use of the
walk.
In the matter of coasting, during
the winter, there was an element Of
danger not only to coasters but -
others, which might have justified
stricter regulation than the police
gave the sport. But in the matter OF
roller skating, the children should
have the right to enjoy themselves
without Police interference

PFANsCHMIDT NOW
SEEN IN BUSHNELL
Maconb Paper Thinks Jones He is
With is Fighters Manager, to
Judge From Story.

| That Ray Pfanschmidt has been seen
/ in Bushnell is the contents Of story
carried last week by the Journal of
Macomb, which is reproduced:
| While lettering around the depot
at Bushnell last evening awaiting for
the tracks to be cleared so that he
could board the evening passenger
train for home, one of Macomb's most
prominent citizens who is well &C
iquainted with Ray Pfanschmidt, saw
] that young man in company with a
man whom the Macomb man says is
| Tom Jones, manager Of Jess Willard,
who aspires to the title. of champion
heavyweight. Pfanschmidt was en-
gagged in conversation but would not
disclose to what point he was bound
except to say that he and Jones were
on their way to Peoria from Keokuk.
AS Pfanschmidt had stated at one time
that he expected to go to Mexico 1t
| is believed by some that he is on his
way to Juarez, where it is expected
the big fight will be held, probably
having been joined by Jones at Keo-
! kuk.
| A telegram from Ell Paso, Texas, APP
pears today in one of the Chicago
papers, supposed to be from Manager
Jones, but when confronted with this
assertion the local PARTY stated that
he was certain he could not be mis-
taken as he had known Tom Jones
for number of years and had been in
his company number of times, and
engaged him in conversation last
evening.
1t may be probable that Ray is on
his way to Decatur where he was to
visit, but as he would not divulge the
place he would go to after reaching
Peoria, his exact destination cannot
| be learned

ing to the Rock Island Union, over the
signs OF renewed activity and enthus-
1asm on the part of the membership
of the great society as reflected in
statistics of record in the head clerk s
office for the month of February, just
passed. Not only does the number of
new certificates issued for the month
show substantial increase over the
figures for the preceding month, but,
also, it touches the highest point as
regards new business since December

and consistent increase that began
Immediately after the opening of the
tri-ennial term following the Toledo
head camp last June. Despite the fact
that February is the shortest month

record for February Of 1912 and 1913,
a fattering gain is recorded, the for

AS proof of the return of the era OF
good feeling and old time prosperity,
the steady gains in the number of new
certificates issued since the last head

certificates were issued, there has

The supreme court Of Iowa has af-
firmed al indeterminate sentence of
eight years against G. w. Biewen of
Keokuk county for killing with his
automobile Clarissa Hammes. an
eighteen months old baby. The baby
was in the road and Biewen struck
and killed the child and neglected to
stop and investigate. If the ruling of
the court tends to reduce reckless
driving it will be of good effect. Fast
driving is largely fad It certainly
