open a weeks engagement under
the auspices of the Keokuk Com

Supervisors and Trustees Under VIII
to Combine to Build Home for
Dependent Children at
la Harpe.
MISS DEv1ER's REQUEST
Committee of Board Of Supervisors Is
Visiting Other Cities to Get
Ideas About Arci1itee-
ture and Plans.

Hancock county, Illinois, Is moving
to take care Of all its INDECENT and
dependent children of the future In
the most modern and best way.
1t Is to have home for them at
LaHarpe built by the joint action OF
tie county board of supervisors and
the trustees under the will OF Miss
Mary Devier, Of Disco.
A few years ago, Miss Deyfer died
and left will appointing w. B. Kaiser
cashier of the La Harpe State Bank
as executor. In the will were re.
quests that he sell some property be
linging to Miss Devier and apply the
proceeds toward the building and
N maintaining of hospital in La Harpe.
The proceeds OF the land amounted
to approximately $4,000, and in the
Judgment Of the executor, the sum was
insufficient for the building and main.
tenance of a hospital.
Proposition Of Executor.
Mr.. Kaiser went before the Hancock
county board and offered to use this
fund to build home in La Harpe for
dependent children in Hancock county
to be used and maintained by the
county for all such children.
Are Inspecting Others.
Joseph Nelson, Of Nauvoo. chairman
OF the committee on public tnstitu-
lions for the county with other nem-
'bers Of his committee, has made sew
e, al trips to Quincy and Macomb, and
inspected such public homes now
that this proposition has been made
tt. the county.
Chairman Nelson and the rest Of his
committee will go to Springfield and
other cities to make further investiga-
lions, after which they expect to re-
port favorably to the board OF super
viscrs, which will be convened in spe-
cial session, to act upon Mr.. Kaiser's
proposition
