Postpone Conference.

A conference between business men
of Moline and officers of the company
was to have been held this week, but
owing to the absence of the Washes
from the city, it was necessary to
postpone the meeting until later
date after the Fourth of July celebra-
ton, when local business men will
have more time to devote to the prop
osition. L. c. Hart, through whom
the plan of establishing direct con-
nectiOns with the Rock Island South
ern from Moline and points east orig
mated, is enthusiastic over the prop
osition and he is confident, as are the
Washes, that the citizens of Moline
can get this service without much
difficulty.

ENTHUSIASTIC OVER. PROPOSAL
viii First Connect This City and Ter
minaI with Motor Bus Service-TO
Operate Street Car Later.

c. Z. Dietz has been given assur-
ances by officers Of the Rock Island
Southern that the city of Moline will
have advantage of direct service on
the company's lines. Mr.. Dietz was
authorized at meeting of Moline
business men some time ago to take
up the proposition with the Washes,
who are at the head of the company
The conferences, which took place at
Excelsior Springs. developed the fact
that the railway officials are enthusi-
astically in accord with such a prop
osition and that the company is finan-
Cially able at this time to develop the
plan.
Taking it for granted that it will be
possible to get franchise through
Rock Island and Moline, the Tri-City
Railway company being agreeable to
the plan, E. c. Walsh, president, de-
clared that he would be willing to
provide a special electric car for car
rying passengers and light freight
over tracks of the Tri-City Railway
company between Moline and the
Rock Island Southern station in the
west end of Rock Island, establish a
station in this city, put Moline on the
schedule and sell tickets to and from
Moline and points on the Southern.
This would be his plan for making
the service permanent. In the mean
time, however, he would establish a
motor bus service to connect with all
trains of the Rock Island Southern.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

Talcum powder boxes make fine pep
er and salt shakers and are splendid
for any kind of spices, as they are
alright. Open them where the top
joins the body part and after you once
have them open they will open and
close easily afterward.
To Furnish Dainty Bedroom at Small
Cost-For the dressing table, plain
pine kitchen table can be purchased
for as low as $3.50 Give this two coats
of fat white. After this is well hard
ened add coat of white enamel. Treat
an old mirror in the same way, and
hang above the table. This, with a

that anyone may have the freshest OF

PICTURE AS ART NUCLEUS.

If certain plans of the Art Students
league are carried to completion one
Of Frank Townsend Hutchens' pic
lures Of the collection on exhibition
at the Davenport public library the
past two weeks, may remain in the tri-
cities as the nucleus of future art
collection OF the Art Student league.
Among the pictures being consid-
cred are "On the Hilltop" "Poplars OF
Picardie," In the Garden" and "1n
June" While the price Of the first
mentioned is almost prohibitive, Mr.
Hutchens is very generously trying to
meet the league pocketbooS with lib
eral concessions.
There was a meeting of the execu-
tive board of the league the past week
when G. A. Stephens. S. J. Temple and
E. X. Putnam met with the active
members.
1t was decided to raise sustaining
fund Of around $1,000 to secure SOC
members at 81 each, and 100 members
at IS each, and as many members as
possible at S25 to carry on the winter
school opening next fall.
OF most Importance Of the moment
is, however, the sketching class that is
planned for this spring to be started
soon with an artist instructor from ou
of the city. The maintenance fund, il
is hoped, will finance all these activi
ties and if there is balance at the enc
of the year it will be reserved for pic
lures for the league rooms.
