wOMEN's SPIRIT FINE.
The outstanding feature of the
contest, to the Cake Baking Editors
way OF thinking. was the splendid
spirit in which the women entered
the competition. Practically every
one of them. upon delivering her
cake said:
II haven't any idea that / will win
prize, but the cakes are going to
worthy cause.-the hospitals and
orphanages-after the judges finish
with them, and that's what prompted
me to bake mine
The cakes were delivered to the in
stitutions in automobiles last night.
From every angle the contest was
huge success and the judges are
particularly entitled to credit for
their careful and impartial work.
They left The Washington Times
office without knowing the identity
of anyone who submitted a cake in
the contest.

INSURANCE co.
TO Be TRIED
Judge Dietz Rules That Trial of
Bradley VS.. Illinois Concern
should Be Held.

The suit of G. E. Bradley against
the Illinois Automobile Insurance
Exchange probably will be tried in
the Moline city court some time
this summer. The suit is for $3.50
that Bradley says the company
owes him.
Judge G. o. Dietz announced to-
day that he will rule that the insur-
ance company is not immune be-
cause Bradley is said to be insolv-
ent or failed to pay the judgment
of s3.450.
Bradley was the defendant in a
circuit court case a short time ago
in which Peter Langbehn was
awarded $3,45o. Langbehn claimed
he was injured by a car driven by
Bradley.
Bradley declares that he referred
the judgment to the insurance COM
pany as he had a policy with that
company protecting him in cases of
that kind. He now states that the
company refuses to pay according
to the clause in his policy.
The announcement that the trial
would be held sometime this sum
mer was made after hearing on
the company's plea that it was not
liable. Judge DietZ stated that his
ruling is in accordance with de-
cision OF the appellate court.

Chicago, July 12.-Bullish crop

about an upturn in wheat prices

and December 1.27 to 1.27A.
Continued lack of rain had
bullish effect on corn. After open

BOARD WANTS
CONTROL. over
SCHOOL NURSE
Old Topic Is Brought Up at Hot
Session OF East Moline
Board.

The question of who should hold
the authority over the school nurse
was the main topic at a hot session
of the East Moline grade school
board last night in Lincoln school.
The school nurse last year was
furnished by the Red Cross and
was under the chapters supervi-
sion. The idea of a school nurse
not being under the authority of the
school board caused some bad feel
ing and the question has been under
discussion for some time
The Red Cross is planning on
paying $3.50 of the school nurses
salary for the coming year. This
leaves $500 to be made up by the
school board The majority of the
members of the school board are
strongly in favor of taking over
complete control of the nurse and
it is thought likely that the nurse
will be hired in this way.
Nothing definite was decided at
last nights session and more dis
cussion about the school nurse fill
be made at the next meeting.
The sale of the old John Deere
school building was discussed. The
new building will be ready by Sep
TENDER and the board will have no
use for the old frame building.
There has been some talk of selling
1t to the city for city hall, build
ing which East Moline lacks at the
present time. The school building
Is in excellent condition and would
make a good city hall until a new
one could be built.

MOLINE POLICE
ARREST MAN WHO
STRUCK UMPIRE

An aftermath of the incident at
Browning field last Friday after
noon when the spectators crowded
into the field and attacked Umpire
Lauzon, came up in the Moline po-
lice court t<is morning.
The affair became a police case
last night when John Evenor, "a
years cid, bell hop at the Manu-
facturers' hotel, was arrested on a
charge. of disorderly conduct. Ac-
cording to the police Evenor hit
the umpire several times. He was
arraigned before Magistrate Gus
tafson this afternoon.
Not much seems to be known
about the details of the case. 1t
appears that Policeman Peterhoff
is behind the case, however, as he
obtained the warrant and made the
arrest. 1t is not known 'thether
Lauzon will be at the trial
