SMALL BOY A SUICIDE
Little Eric Rutter Kills Himself in

loo-Shoots Himself With Revolver
He Finds in Dresser Drawer.

Waterloo, July 27.-Eric Rutter, y
year old son of Ed. Rutter, 20S Cot
tage Grove avenue, shot and instantly
killed himself while playing in the
home of N. Rosen bloom, Ills syca-
more street.
Eric had gone to play with some
boys in the vicinity of the Rosenbloom
home where his sister. Dulcie, aged 10,
has been employed. His father is en-
ployed at the Artificial Ice Company,
whose plant is just in the rear OF the
Rosenbloorn residence.
While his sister was engaged in an
other part of the house, the lad en-
tered a bedroom on the first floor ana
secured a 32-caliber revolver out of a
dresser drawer.
The bullet entered just under the
right eye and lodged near the LETT ear.
Physicians were called but the boy was
beyond help. Coroner Sidney Smith
held death to be accidental
Eric Rutter was born in Waterloo,
April II, 1909. BesSes his parents
there are a brother Ned, and two SIS
tiers. Dulcie and Bessie The brother

Washington, July 27-"The l. w. w.

Howard E. Coffin, chairman OF the
air craft production board. Whenever
we announce the name Of factory

these disturbances are instigated by
I. W. W.
Recently something was printed
about our dealings with producers OF
spruce lumber the material from which
certain aeroplane parts are made. I'm
mediately trouble started in plants
which produce spruce. I. W. W. asi-

trouble Germany does not scruple to

North Dak-ta. considered one Of the
best informed men on the technical
phases Of wireless telegraphy in the
country.
The course completed. graduates
from these schools are at once assigned
to duty on the ships and shore stations
of the navy.
The need of competent operators can
not be too strongly emphasized. Every
ship that sails the seas must rely al
most entirely upon the aerial message
for its orders.
As in all other departments of the
navy, promotion now depends upon the
ability of the individual to perform his
duty, not upon the length of previous
service. The pay at the start of tbs
iandsman for radio is $3.50 a month.
If found qualified, there is nothing in
the way of his being advanced over
night to chief petty officer at SIS a
month.

TREASON IN DAVENPORT
Audience Appiauds TRADE of Bias
phemy and Verbal Filth by League
OF Humanity" Leader-Meetina Con-
sidered Blot on River Town.

Davenport, July 27.-Obscenities,
by Daniel H. Wallace, who claims to
be q deserter from the English army,
were enjoyed by a majority Of about
1900 alleged American citizens and
German sympathizers at the Turner
Grand opera house, where Wallace
lectured in behalf Of his so-called
League of Humanity" Altho it was
said fifty secret service men were scat
tered in the house, no effor. was made
TO stop the lecture.
The exact language Of Wallace is
being transcribed today for transm.s-
sion to the state department, the en-
tire lecture having been taken in short
hand by G. w. Jones, stenogrepher, Of
Davenport.
The general impression thruout the
city today in American circles seems
to be that the meeting was the biggest
blot that has ever appeared upon the
history of Davenport, and open charges
Of treason are being made on The
street against the persons responsible
for bringing Wallace here.
Many OF the statements MADE Dy
Wallace were Of such nature thai the
police would have stopped any the
atrical production that permitted them.
Men with their wives and daughters,
who had been led TO believe that the
lecture was to give clear, concise re-
view of the operations Of the English
army in France and Africa, were
greeted by a flow of filth and OBJ
scenities, that were applauded wildly
by sympathizers Of the kaiser.
Religious edifices would be leveled
thruout the world if Wallace, who ad-
nits he Is an atheist, had his way
about 1t. He defended the Germans
for their bombardment of cathr drals
in Belgium. He ridiculed the work Of
the Salvation Army and church or
CARNATIONS.
After venting his feelings Of hatred
toward England, dished up in a line Of
American slang enriched by the use Of
