SALVAGlNG MUNITIONS
What VIII Be Done With the Unused
Ammunition

Ammunition.
What'Il be done with all the ammu-
milton accumulated on the western
front at the time the order came to
cease firing?
That Ia q question the soldiers are
asking, and they view with some re-
gret the fact that they have to, see SO
much good fireworks go to waste.
Shell dumps hundreds of yards long
were left behind the lines. Millions OF
pieces of big gun ammunition, five feet
in length and weighing t~hree-quarters
of q ton each lie out in the open. There
is no place to store them. Rust will
corrode the shell cases and age Will
weaken the explosives. In a few years
all these shells would be buds.
OF course, this ammunition must be
broken up. Copper Is worth about
$500 a ton. and there are thousands
OF tons Of copper and steel and alumni
mum, brass. tinplate. cardboard. paper
and textiles which can be salvaged and
used In commerce.
Nitrates which a gone into the
making of explosives may be extracted
and turned into fertilizer for French
fields which will be leveled where now
trenches and shellholes make cultiva-
ton impossible.
Melting down Of metals will recover
a NTH to a quarter OF the cost.
Most explosives are soluable or may
be melted n poured out OF the shell
cases.
Decorators may be dumped into the
sea- Fuses may be picked apart, cord
lite may be cut with bronze scissors
without danger Of explosion.

death in less than a weeks time. The
death Of Miss Mary Shirley of Foster
occurred at her home there Friday
morning, while her sister, Mrs. R. ].

ah Shirley Of Rock Island county, is
lying at the point of death, suffering
from a general complication OF all
ments.

George Williams Place, sslS
Third Avenue.
OUTGROwTH OF EARLIER FIGHT
Black Who Did Shooting Had Mixup
With One John Brown Over
Alleged Insult to Wife.

Taking the method employed by the
bad men in the western frontier towns
in the early days, Willie Springer, a
Negro. last night at 1920 opened the
front door Of George Williams pool
room at 2215 Third avenue and emp
tied his revolver-six shots-at the
patrons. Three patrons of the place
were injured.
After the shooting Springer turned
and ran south on Twenty-third street
and disappeared. Up to late hour
this afternoon the police had been ua-
able to locate him.
The shooting was the outgrowth CT
fight staged earlier in the evening
between Springer and John Brown,
another black, in Williams place.
Springer was pummeled by Brown.
According to the story told by W.T.
liams, Browns wife came in earlier
in the evening to purchase some to-
bacco. Brown happened to be in the
store at the time and claimed Spring
er had insulted his wife. Brown struck
Springer several times in the face.
Springer said nothing, but walked
into the barber shop next door and
got a haircut and shave. While
Springer was in the barber shop Viii
liams talked with him and tried t.
pacify him. Never mind" muttered
Springer as he left, "Ah can take care
of mahself." -
Il is thought that after Springer
left the barber shop he went to hii
room in the vicinity of Fourth avenue
and Fifteenth street and secured his
| revolver.

physician.
! Although the police spread drag

his escape.
Springer came to Rock Island 70
