in the campaign. At this election
a complete set of officers will be
chosen.
The second day of the campaign
has netted big results in the drive
for members.
The workers have found that
many men are hesitating about
joining the organization because
of a misunderstanding in regard to
fees connected with enrolment.
For that reason, the committee
wishes TO make clear the follow
ing: A fee of 81 for initiation and
81 for dues for a period OF six
months are both payable at the
time of registration.
Sub-stations will be established
throughout the city tomorrow, the

the campaign will also be carried
to Milan, Taylor Ridge and Anda-

STEPHENSON is
NAMED OFFICER
OF CATERERS
Manager of Watch Tower Was On
Train Struck By Lightning While
o. Way to Des MOines.

George r. Stephenson. manager
of the Watch Tower. returned to-
day from Des Moines, where he
took part in the festivities attend
ent upon the opening of the new
Savory hotel in that city. Mr..
Stephenson was in Chicago Thurs
day of last week at the convention
81 the American Caterers associa-
ton, which elected him as vice
president.
During his trip. Mr.. Stephenson
enjoyed. if it can be called such,
the novel experience of having to
walk down from the top floor Of
a 10 story building in the Windy
city when electric power in the
loop was destroyed, and of being a
passenger on q train struck by
lightning.
Tears on Side of Coach.
The latter occurred just outside
of Durant, while he was enroute tC
Des Moines early Saturday morn
ing. One coach carried a large
number of soldiers on their way to
Siberia via San Francisco. 1t was
of wooden construction and the
lightning bolt tore one side com
pletely away, and the hand rails CT
all coaches were pulled from their
fastenings The platform on the
rear of the smoker was wrecked.
The train was held up for an hour
and a half before the damage could
be cleared away.
AS far as Mr.. Stephenson could
learn, no one on the train was in
jured.

third avenue and Twenty-seventh
street have pleaded for the extern
Sion and for street car service.
The case was before the utilities
commission when the demand for a
7-cent fare was made and City At
torney Johnston withdrew the pc
tition. stating that the company en-
deavored to use the extension to
get higher fares.
In July, 1918, the commission
passed on the petition and post
poned the improvement until after
the war. The commission found
the extension to be necessary. but
ruled that because of the war and
shortage of materials it would be
inadvisable to make the imprCa E.
ment in the summer of 1918.

Oct. VIII Sc Big Time in Annals
of Quad City Rotary Clubs,
Judging from Plans.

Plans for the big time at East
Moline Oct. when the new Rotary
club of that city will formally re-
ceive it's charter, and for tomor-
rows day of hard work on the
Milan road took up most Of the time
of Rock Island Rotarians today.

Milan road is 10 be improved. He
let his hearers know that it would
take something more than the mere
waving of a shovel over the scene
to move the gravel and told how to
avoid blisters and to treat lame
backs. Forty-four members pledg-
ed themselves to do their part.
Rockwell Best Guesser.
By being able to discern that d
veil (Vaile) is what women most
prize on a windy day. that Fisher
is the king of our native birds, that
a corn (Korn) makes Rotarians
walk with a limp, and to find an
swers to a dozen other equally
battling questions, all in Is min
utes, F. H. Rockwell won a Rotary
pin for d prize. Sixteen questions,
the answer to which in each case
was the name of some member Of
the club. were propounded and Mr..
Rockwell proved quickest witted.
joe Tuckis arranged the program.
A letter was read asking $40 from
the Rock Island organization as
part of $4,000 the Rotary clubs are
raising for the flood and storm suf-
ferers on the Texas coast and the
sum was given. 1t was also voted
10 stand an assessment to pay the

STEEL STRIKE
MAY Be FELT
BY FACTORIES
Officials Of Local Plants VIII Not
Hazard Il Guess as to How
Long Supplies VIII Last

A prolonged strike OF steel work
ers will materially affect prOduc-
ton of local factories, according 70
officials, who stated they could not
estimate just how long present
supplies would last.
1t is considered very likely that
if the situation prevails for longer
than four weeks, or if some steps
are not taken to renew depleted
stocks, every big industrial plant
in Rock Island and Moline will have
to curtail production, and in some
cases close down.

roof of the home of John OhlEeiler

The fire was first discovered by
Commissioners WITCH and Fftzsim-

from the roof, and turned in the
alarm.
Quick work by the fire depart

that it pays to be sure you get them; good

/ in Paris recalls a single instance
where Mibb took a woman into her

But she hadn't been in town two
hours before two strange drummers
in the Whitney House were patting
her hand and old man Ezekial's boy
who lived summers on the big house

Lord that the town had turned up a

Mabel visited Judge Farmer first
and met with such an icy reception
that she came to Sam Hold with tears
of modification and rage in her eyes
and demanded the price Of space in
the Telegraph" so she could say
publically in print just what she
thought of our leading attorney and
banker.
Sam got her quoted down after a
fashion, during which procedure he
had difficulty to avoid Mibb weeping
on his shoulder, and explained to her
the law Of libel and how paper and
not an individual contributor was held
responsible for any such deliberate
indiscretion. Then with eyes snap

listened while Sam narrated as dip

1t was a different Mabel Truman,
nee Henderson, who came back to
Paris two years later Mibb had
matured in those years of absence.
Maybe it had been the people she
had met, the places she had frequent
ed, the wider horizons or the removal
of all horizons, that was responsible.
She had gone away a cheap coun-
try-town spit-fre covered with the
veneer Of easy money. She came
back polished but not subdued, cul-
tured but not refined, sophisticated
but sadly lacking a sense of humor.
Naturally she had heard about the
bankruptcy for the money had stop
ped coming from Herbert. But she
was not persuaded that the whole
catastrophe was not sharp lawyers
trick which some scheming parties
somewhere had succeeding in putting
over on provincial, easy-going Herb,
and back she had come to "see about
it,
She was stouter than when she
had gone away. Her dress was less
conspicuous and showed better taste.
But there were tiny crowsfeet in the
corners of her eyes and the faintest
of faint wrinkles commencing to
show in her neck and she gravitated
toward men and told them her trou-
bles as naturally as brook seeks the
