MARSHAL TELLS

Cases OF NOn-Registrafi0n
or Removal.

Rock Island police officials have
received a communica ion from
United States Marshal V. Y. Dali
man OF Springfield in regards 70
the enemy alien situation.
The order states that German
alien women subject TO registra-
ton who have failed to register or
who change residence without OBJ
tanning permission on proper forms
provided by the department OF
justice are subject to arrest and
detention for the duration OF the
war
1t is believed that all German
alien women in this city have reg
istered, but it will be the duty Of
the local authorities to enforce the
provision requiring the obtaining
of permission for removals.
The order from the United States
marshal also states that registra-
ton officials who are no. supplied

WHISKY TAKEN
ARRESTOWNERS
Attempt TO Ering Bag OF Liquor
Here Frustrated BY MarshafS
Forces Last Night.

S. R Wright Of Rock Island was
arrested last night by the United
States marshal's forces at the
Thirty-first street station of the
Rock Island lines, when a travel
ing bag which he was carrying was
found to contain six quarts of per
fectly good Bourbon whisky and
one quart Of Virginia Dare wine.
According to Wright's story he
received the liquor from Frank
Hockinsmith. Seventeenth street
and Seventh avenue. Testimony
showed that Hockinsmith intended
to bring the liquor into Rock Is
land and wrote a postal card 70
Wright, telling him to be at the
station to get the bag IS the train
passed through. The card was in
tercepted and read and deputies
from the marshal's Office were
waiting at the sta ion at the ap-
pointed time.
HOchinsmith was not taken into
custody until this morning. He de
cIared that four quarts of the
whisky was going to be taken to
hiss sick father in MacOmb, Ill, and
that the remaining two quarts
were to be divided between Wright
and a friend employed on the ar
senal. The bottle of wine, he said,
was to have been a gift to the
friends wife.
At hearing before Justice D. J.
Cleland this morning, the men
were found guilty and bound over
to await action Of the federal
grand jury under $500 bonds,
which they furnished.

HER LOST LOVE
WORTH $4,000
Catherine PletScher of Davenport
Values Affection at Large
Sum in Court Suit,

For some time Catherine PIetsch-
er and Henry Hinrichs. both of
Davenport, were neighbors. As
they passed each others homes
they would cast loving glances
within. These gIances il seems
soon were revolutioned into love
whatever that is.
At least. after a six months
courtship, Catherine now finds her
youthful affections rudely shatter-
ed Horrid man, she exclaims.
But Ca -herine does not intend to
sit in sackcloth and ashes and be
moan her fate No. indeed not.
She has marched right into court
with her martial troubles and yes
terday gave evidence of her lost
cause in the filing of a breach of
promise suit in Davenport Henry
Hinrichs is the victim Of her attack
and "Heinie' Is now asked to come
across with $4,000 as a heart balm
for his wandering affections.
In her petition Catherine claims
that on June l, 1918, and on sew
eraI occasions subsequently. Henry
asked her to marry him and she
consented, After a reasonable lapse
of time, she asserts. he now re-
fuses to fulfil his promise Where
fore she seeks judgment in the sum
of $4,000 and costs OF suit NJ. =.
Cannon is her attorney
Both Catherine and Henry have
been married before. Possibly once
is enough for Henry. but Catherine
is willing to take another chance.

HALF THOUSAND ARE
ENROLLED FOR YEAR

There are now Sal students en-
rolled for the year at Rock Island
high school
Commercial course classes are
filling up rapidly, which fact would
indicate that more students have
seen the wisdom of learning bust
ness lines. There are five classes
in typewriting and enough pupils
to fill three classes in stenography.
Since the business courses were in
troduced into the Rock Island high
school each year has seen an in
crease in the number of students
enrolled in that division. This year
more than any other students real
ize how necessary a business edu-
cation is to the world.
Other classes likewise are filling
up well and it probably will be nee
essary TO begin several new ones
to accommodate the influx of stu
dents not expected. The arsenal
has brought in many new families
since the closing OF school last
spring.
Principal Arnold I.au has made
no arrangements to carry on the
half school day plan, which is being
continued this year in the Moline
high school f P Nutting, prin-
cipal of the twin-city high school,
has arranged the program for
many of the students who wish to
keep their summer positions and at
the same time finish school Mr..
Lau stated this morning that the
reason he had made no such plans
is that there has been no general
request TO do so. However he has
discussed the matter with a few of
the students. One boy was per
suaded to give up his 81 a week
job to give all his time to school.
Two girls wish 10 continue their
work. simultaneously getting the
benefit out of school II is probable
that their programs will be arrang-
ed accordingly. Unless the labor
situation demands that students be
allowed to work. it is not probable
that such a plan will be carried on
to any great extent.

Grafton. soldiers have taken advan-
tage of the offer and have enjoyed
afternoons and evenings at the

ever experienced will be closed

MOTHERS TAKE AN
INTEREST IN THE
NURSE RECRUITING

Mothers of soldiers and sailors
( take direct interest in the re-
/ CTultlng of nurses for war and
| home service being done in the
I nited States because Of the fact
that if their sons are wounded in
/ battle the nurses will be there to
take care of them. officials of the
american Red Cross say.
In speaking of the recruiting
work in the the central district. Of
| ticials Of the Red Cross have issued
the following:
Mothers of soldiers and sailors
have a direct interest in the cam
paign Of the Red Cross to recruit
graduate nurses for war service. be-
cause If their sons are wounded in
battle, or i'll in camp, the nurses
will give them expert care.
From the time we entered the
war to Aug. l. the American Red
Cross has assigned to active service
1891. The surgeon general asks
that this number be increased TO
$1,000 by January, and that of the
IS .653 nurses still to be enrolled
1000 of them be enrolled by Oct. !.
ITO meet his call, the Red Cross
will need the cooperation of the
public. which must reduce its calls
upon trained nurses and so release
them for war service. Mothers of
enlisted men can do much to hasten
the enrolment of nurses by COOP
Grating with the Red Cross.
In the states of Illinois, Iowa
Michigan. Nebraska and Wiscon
sin. 2.155 nurses were enrolled bv
the Red Cross in 1917. and 2.6ll in
1918 10 Aug. 26. This is a total since
the war started of 1866 But this
is not nearly enough.
by states the enrolment has
been Illinois, 1875; Iowa, 7O6.
Michigan, l.I26; Nebraska, 4l9;
Wisconsin, $40.
THE graduate nurses are here in
sufficient numbers. What is needed
is the willingness of the public TO
yield them tor war service Physi-
clans, too. must make a sacrifice.
using trained nurses only during
the acute periods of cases and then
substituting practical nurses.
NO other call to patriotism is
more urgent.

use of Rock Island city water be
discontinued at the TLirtv-firsi

were received. The order stated
that advices had been received to
the effect that the water was not

Commissioner Mdrrin forewith
sent samples of the city water TO
the railroad chemist at Chicago.
and to the state wafer survey at
Urbana The railroad chemist pro
nOunced the water pure. and now
the state water survey report bears
out this decision.
The interstate water survey has

the railroad officials and city water

cradle uneasiness, and members Of
