Former Night Captain Of Police and

on Rock Island Lines.

James R. Reynolds, first lieutenant
of Company A of Rock Island and in
the detective service of the Rock Is
land lines, died at st. AnthOny's hos
pital at 1870 last night, following an
operation. He was first taken i'll Mon
day night, and when his attack was
diagnosed as acute appendicitis he
was removed to the hospital, and an
operation was performed Immediate
ly. He did not rally, and from the
first the attending surgeons pronounc-
cd his condition SO critical that recov-
cry was doubtful.
A young man of most attractive per-
sonality, leader in the military and
fraternal organizations in which he
became connected, Mr.. Reynolds was
one of the most popular young men
Of this city, and his death comes as a
shock to large circle.
Captain Reynolds, as he was gen.
orally known, was born March II,
1883, in Clay county, Kansas. He was
but a year old when his parents, Mr.
and Mrs Frank Reynolds, removed to
Rock Island county to make their
home on farm in Drury township
The young man remained on the farm
with his father till 10 years ago, when
he secured employment in Rock Is
land, which had since been his home

Many of the New Years celebrants
awakened Saturday morning with Wis

the streets to find their resorts in
mourning. Several places had already
been dismantled and workmen were
showing flashes of industry by putting
them in readiness for other lines Of
endeavor.
From the center OF mans universe,
as far as the undressed optic could

drouth, drain, aridity, exhaustion of
moisture, broken idols, broken glasses,
on every side.

for the time. They were lethargic but

viyal. The vets reused themselves.
There was run on the manufacturers

Several of the saloons. which had

that no time may be lost when the
problem of garbage disposal becomes
one that must be faced Question of

new CITY HALL IN
SILVIS PROPOSED
Feasibility OF Plan to Erect Building
Being Investigated by Council
Committee.
VOTERS TO PASS ON QUESTION
Improvement May Be Had During the
Present Year-Aldermen Dis
euss Project.

A new municipal building for the
village of Silvis during the next year
has become probability as result of
action taken by the council at meet
ing last evening. Upon motion Of
Councilman Hartline the matter was
turned over to the building, ground
and park committee for investigation
and report two weeks hence.
Should favorable report be made by
the committee at that time, definite
steps will be taken and the matter will
probably be submitted to the voters at
the spring election in April. 1t will
be necessary for the building, ground
and park body to secure plans and de-
termine cost, so that this can be speci-
fed when voters are asked to pass on
the bond issue.
For a considerable period of time
there has been an agitation for the new
building. A bid was submitted to
board members some time ago for
erection of a hall at a cost of $4,000.
General opinion of the board is that a
building sufficient to meet needs for
some time could be secured for $15,-
900. Treasurer Shannon believes that
$4,000 of the amount could come from
the general fund without Gripping fl
nances of the village.
A site will be considered by the COM
mittee during the next two weeks. The
village at present owns three lots on
First avenue between Tenth and Elev-
enth streets and this tract seems most
/ likely of selection.
Of interest were plans submitted by
Marshall W. E. Hopson at last even
ings meeting. The officer has pre-
pared forms upon which all particu-
lars relative to persons arrested by the
police, including name, crime, specific
description and any other information
which might help identify the party,
can be kept Attorney Long. when ap-
pealed to for an opinion. stated that
the forms are excellent, and would, in
his opinion, go a long way toward sys-
/ tematiZing the department. Number
! Of arrests made are not so numerous
/ that any difficulty in keeping records
/ is anticipated. Decision was reached
to turn the matter over to the printing
rent and fuel committee with power to
act, which virtually means the forms
will be ordered.
