THOUSANDS VISIT
THEIR old HOMES
Rock Island Gay With Bunting to
Greet Visitors Here for Centen.
NAL Celebration.

ROCK Island was gay with the ma
honal coiors and with other decorative
designs for the opening of the CEN
tennial celebration today Similar dis
plays were to be seen also in Dayen-
port and Moline. The three cities are
hosts to thousands of former resi-
dents, native sons and daughters who
have returned after spending years in
other localities. Most of the visitors
are finding entertainment with friends
or with relatives. Visitors in Rock
Island are being registered at the Rock
Island club. Early registry is urged
because it will enable those looking
for old friends to learn if they are
present and to make arrangements for
reunions.
Old settlers and former residents
generally today held a reunion in the
big tent erected for their use on the
island. This took place from noon till
o'clock
At O'Clock ceremonies were begun
dedicating places of interest on the is
land, including the old arsenal build
ing, the site of the pier of the first
bridge across the Mississippi and the
old Davenport home.
This evening the burning of Sauk
city, which was located during revo-
lutionary times on the shore of Rock
river where the village of Sears was
established by white men. will take
place. This will be staged in the
open field in front of the grand stand
and will be preceded by sham battle
between whites and Indians, the latter
being impersonated by the Davenport
Red Men in typical Indian costume.
Tomorrow morning will be given
over to visiting points of interest in
the three cities and in the afternoon
there will be indian games and a cir
Gus staged by the Y Nj. c. AS of the
three cities. In the evening the cleo
trically illuminated parade will be
! held on the island.
