La Sale County Attorney Denies
knowledge OF Alvine Murder
Case When Interviewed.

Stories Are Circulated That Ottawa
Lawyer Would Be Employed by
Chastine's Friends.
STATE TO ASK DEATH PENALTY

Rumors today were current in Rock
Island county that Lee O,Neil Browne
of Ottawa, former minority leader in
/ the lower house of the state legisla-
ture, had been employed to defend Dan
Chastine, accused Of the murder of
Hugo Alvine.
| Efforts to ascertain the foundation
of the tales disclosed that both the
state and the defense had understood
that the other side had secured the
services of the La Sale county attOr-
ney. H. NJ. McCaskrin and Ben Stew
art, who have been retained as counsel
| for Chastine, asserted that they had
understood that Browne was to be en-
ployed to assist the state in the prose-
cution. States Attorney Floyd Thomp-
son stated that he knew nothing of the
rumor only that it was being said that
an effort to secure Browne had been
made by the defense.
| A representative of The Argus this
afternoon interviewed Browne in Of
| tawa
/ 81 don't know of the case and have
not been retained in it. am now busy
assisting the state in the prosecution
in the Tonica bank trial." the attorney
said.
Friends to Aid!
Stories from the east end Of the
county are to the effect that railroad
men, friends of Chastine, are attempt
ing to raise fund to employ Browne
to defend the accused man. 1t may be
that these tales are responsible for the
rumors current here, since Browne de-
MES knowledge of the case.
States Attorney Thompson declared
the prosecution would ask for the
death penalty. He said the state ex-
pected to have a clear case against
Chastine.
Court attaches are expecting, when
the case is called for trial, that con-
tinuance will be asked for.

STUDY MAKING PHOTOPLAYS.

Photoplays in the making was the
subject of an interesting meeting of
the study department of the Rock Is
land Woman's club held Yesterday af-
ternoon in the Masonic temple par
lors. Mrs. c. H. CaStetter and Mrs
H, P. Leonard were in charge of the
program. Mrs. Leonard told a little
OF the history of film-making and dis
cussed the mechanical part in produc-
ing films. She said the kaleidoscope
was the first moving picture machine,
and mentioned Maybridge Jenkins and
Edison as all having had a scientific
part in picture making. Edison, she
said, helped perfect, but did not orig
mate the moving picture machine
Mrs. Castetter told how the unusual
pictures are made-wrecks, accidents,
etc. In making these pictures dunn
mics are used as rule To produce
railroad wrecks, the promoters do not
use real trains, as rolling stock is too
expensive even to rent. but miniature
trains are used instead and the pict-
ures are then magnified. But when
there is real wreck the photographer
takes all kinds of pictures and keeps
| them for use in making up wreck
pictures. To get submarine effects,
the pictures are taken through glass

young man did. Bonci tried his voice
and grew enthusiastic with what he
heard The upshot of it all was that
the young man took seriously to the
study of music and today critics hail
him as "the coming American tenor"
The young man is Albert LindQuest.
In 1914 Mr. Lindquest went to
Europe with the idea of preparing for
opera. The leading vocal teachers of
Paris tried his voice and all agreed
that it had the pure Italian bel-canto
quality and advised him to study with
a celebrated master at Florence, Italy.
The day Mr. Lindquest was to start for
Florence war was declared and all
travel suspended for awhile. After
several unpleasant and exciting eXpe
riences he managed to reach London
and from there returned to America.
Mr.. Lindquest has been only three
seasons before the public but during
that time he has acquired an eXpe-
rience and reputation that is the envy
of many an older artist. When Wen
dell leighton, manager of the Mime
apolis Symphony orchestra. heard that
LindQuest was back in this country, he
lost no time in securing his services
for last years spring tour and his SEN
sational success l1i to his re-engage-
ment for the 1916 tour.

To go with a boy whose reputation

grieved if have other company. What
is your advice? MERRY WIDOW.
If you are not very much in love

If you are ir love ask him when he in

ought to know, and there would be
nothing wrong in your asking the

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Is it proper
for young lady to return any of the
