new SALVATION
ARMY CORPSIS
BEING PLANNED
Organization VIII Open Headquar-
tiers Here After Sunday Revival
Meetings Close.

Twenty-Five years ago Rock Is
land had its own corps of Saliva
ton army.
Plans are now on foot to affect
an organization here again, the
former corps having given up its
work because of the inability to
make a success of it. 1t was said
when the former Salvation army
gave up the Rock Island field it
was done because the town was so
rotten at that time that even the
corps could not remain here.
Now, however, things have
changed, and the Salvation army
plans to come into the city with
corps of workers and make a
success of it. Davenport and Mo-
line each has it's own corps.
Mayor Schriver has been inter
viewed relative to assistance in
the mater. As soon as the Sunday
revival meetings are over, the
corps will be inaugurated and a
drive will be started to raise $12,-
600 as Rock Islands share in the
nationwide campaign for funds for
the Salvation army. Salvation
Sal" with her tambourine collec-
ton of nickels and dimes from
place to place, has been relegated
to the dead past by the organiza-
ton, which now proposes to Sc
cure funds for its works with
yearly drives.
The Salvation army came
through the war with the record of
having accomplished much for the
soldier at the front and it is due
to this new understanding of the
organization that the methods of
obtaining funds has been altered.

CASH AND DOPE
STOLEN IN TWO
BURGLARY JOBS
Providers Enter Mccarthy Bros
Grocery and BengstOn's Drug
Store Sunday Night.

Two burglaries occurred in
Rock Island last night
When Mccarthy Bros grocery
store, 416-42O Twenty-third street,
was opened for business this morn
ing, it was discovered that the
place had been broken into some
time during the night. The cash
register was looted of $40. The
burglars gained admission through
the rear cellar door Nothing else
was reported Missing.
No clues which may lead to the
identity of the burglars were
found
Bengston's drug store. Seven
tenth street and Second avenue,
was entered last night and a guam
tity of morphine and iodine taken.
The thieves gained entrance by
breaking one of the windows with
"a rock. Nothing else was touched,
indicating that the thief was after
dope only
In connection with the robbery,
the police call attention to the fact
that one of the most notorious
dope fiends in this part of the
country. who was charged with en-
tering Hartz and Bahnsen's drug
store, Nineteenth street and Sec
ond avenue in broad daylight. and
stealing a large amount of the
same article, was turned loose by
the grand jury Saturday. While it
is not known who the guilty party
is the police believe that the same
man who robbed Hartz & Balm
sen may have had something to do
with the Bengston job.

THEY HAD NO WORRY :
Prosperous Fair Visitors Rather
Hated To Miss Their Train, but

You can't always tell at first glance
just how hard prosperity has hit
man. 1t happened on a street car
bound down town from the fair
grounds.
There were two young men and
their girls. all from up state. They
were talking of their chance of max
ing a train that was to take them
home. A fire was on somewhere up
the line and the lines of hose strung
across the streets had temporarily tied
up traffic. They were sincerely seri-
Gus in their attempt to figure out what
to do. Should they stay on the car
and wait until the fire was over?
Should they get out and walk until
they reached another car line to take
them on? Should they grab one of
the occasionally passing taxis?
Finally one prosperous looking
young farmer who had maintained
thoughtful silence thruout all the
figuring. spoke up.
TN tell you what Wen do" he
said. IF we miss the train we'll go
back up town and buy an automobile.
Z need a car anyway"
Just like that!

feature of this show is that six of
these are Kansas men. One man came
from Missouri to enter his sheep.
Indicative OF the growth of this de-

tcludes swine also. was the fact that
the sheep had to be placed in pens in
a large tent. Heretofore sheep have
been shown in the long line OF pen
barns in the northwest corner of the
grounds. This year the pens are en-
tirely filled with different varieties Of
swine.
