MEXICAN LOSS BY

Mexico City-Four hundred thir-
ty-six thousand. two hundred
deaths were caused in Mexico dur
ing 1915 by the influenza, accord
ing to data published by FL Univer-

conservative, according to the pa

TO furnish figures on the mortality.
In others, it is added, the epidemic
still prevails. In Morelos, in par

In fact, the influenza is credited

Biography was the work of Arthur

The story is that of a young girl
who is compelled to marry a man
on account of his social standing
and wealth, whom she does not love.
He is of the brutal, domino ering
kind who believe that women are
merely the toys Of men and he
treats her accordingly parading
her before his friends on account
of her rare beauty-of which he is
very proud-as he would a blooded
horse or a favorite dog.
He drives her to utter unhappi-
ness and for consolation she turns
to the friendship of young doctor
and his mother-loVe develops be-
tween the young people and appalI-
ing consequences result. The plot
is cleverly handled and is of sus-

and tenderly romantic. The script
was written by Jere Looney and

the personal supervision OF Max

HOLD MEETING WEDNESDAY.
Ordnance Department Authorities
and City Officials TO Discuss
New System.

The conference called for We'd
nesday morning between Rock Is
land arsenal authorities and city
officials of the quad-cities in Col
onel Harry b. Jordan's office is ex-
planned today to make plans for
the construction of a 100000 wa
ter intake pipe in the channel of the
Mississippi river.
Major c. H Clark, post surgeon
at the arsenal, is fathering the
scheme, which calls for the plac-
ing Of the entrance of the huge in
take opposite Winnebago island,
just north of Campbeu's Island.
The pipes would then be laid down
stream to d point near the govern
yiaduct
10 Four cities and the arsenal would
,naYe pipes laid to the large intake.
Moline would tap first, Betterdorf
second, Rock Island arsenal third.
Davenport fourth. and Rock Island
would tap the pipe at the extreme
lower end. At present each city
has its own intake pipe. several of
which are below the sewers leading
into the river. The result. it is
said, in spite of excellent filtering
systems is that the water is more
or less impure.
1t is the plan TO have each city
stand its share of the cost of lay
ing the big pipe.
Get Better Water.
Winnebago island. where the in
takes would be, is above any of the
sewers leading into the river. The
purest water, therefore, could be Sc
cured. Filtering systems would, Of
course, be maintained.
Major Clark has taken tests Of
the water used in each city. and
has found that they contain impuri-
ties. He believes an intake system
such as that proposed would do
away with this condition.
Rock Island will be Represented

new Goldwyn picture. It comes to
the Spencer theatre, starting Tues

high dramatic key it tells the story
of woman who has found happi-

for that happiness when disaster
seems about to overtake her. Her
life in Alaska. when she was
known as Cora Lamont, the play

Just how terrible that part of her
life was Mrs. Barnes knows too
well.

sits, dry-eysd. clasping her child to
