FIRST KILLING
FROST OF FALL
AT 80 DEGREES

A killing frost was registered
last night when the mercury
dropped to 80 degrees. Jack Frost
nipped flower plants that were left
unprotected and put a crimp on
the last of the tomato crop.
Corn, which has been out of the
way of the frost for some time, was
only better seasoned by the low
temperature. In fact, there could
be little damage done by the first
killing frost of the season, and the
only notable feature was that first
hand warning has come that King
Winter has heralded his advance
out of the north in no uncertain
manner.
Last nights low temperature is
not unusual for this time OF the
year. The mercury registered %
degrees Oct Z, 1917, four degrees
colder than the lowest temperature
last night. The Davenport weather
bureau reported that the highest
temperature yesterday was SO, the
fall last night being 21 degrees
Today's forecast was for fair
weather tonight and Sunday with
rising temperature.

Chicago was selected as the place
for the 1922 convention of the Order
of Eastern Star at the sessions
held in Peoria this week. 1t is an
"unwritten law" that only one-half
of the conventions are to be held

was not dangerous. More than g.
600 of the 1000 members in Illi-
nois live in Cook county. Rock Is
land and Decatur were also bidders
for the 4Sth annual gathering.

Island were Mrs. Z. B. Kreis, Mrs.
W. H. Schilf1nger, Mrs. F. A. Sala,
Mrs. p. G. Inter, Mrs. L. R. Mace

ton was the election of the associ-
ate grand conductress. 1t took sew
e-al ballots to elect Mrs. Nellie NV
ers of Chicago to the office which
is much sought after as it is step
ping stone to the honored position
OF worthy grand matron. 1t is GUS
tomary for the Eastern Star offices

1t is said to be practically settled
that the Eastern Star home wiii
be removed from Macon to Rock
ford and that a committee which
has been appointed will supervise
the disposition of the buildings and

of the new home. 1t is to have an
early conference with the board CT

CARLSON REVEALS
FACTS BEARING ON
STATION PROJECT
Especial Moline Service }

Senator III. +. Carlson. mayor of
Moline from 1911 to 1918, today
gave out a brief history of the con-
ferences between the representa-
tives of the Rock Island road and
the city of Moline with respect to
plans for the new passenger sta
ton, which took place in 1913.
The sketches submitted at that
time" said Senator Carlson today,
Showed a substantial structure
and a beautiful park surrounding

provement was to be about $780,,
900.
The Rock Island railway asked
that Eighteenth street be vacated
from the south line of the tracks
to the north line OF the alley be-
tween Fourth and Fifth avenue.
and Fourth avenue between Seven
teenth and Nineteenth streets.
The new station was to be cree
ted in the middle of the railroad
proper with the main portion of
the building at Fourth avenue and
Eighteenth street 1 believe the
central part of the station was to
have two stories, and each of the
wings was to be one story. The
latter were to be used for baggage
and express 1rooms, respectively.
AN ordinance providing for va
eating OF the thoroughfares was
prepared. On June 8, 1913, it was
formally introduced. Under the
commission fern OF government,
however, no ordinances were adopt
ed until they had laid over a GER
tain period for public inspection.
So this ordinance was merely in
troduced. 1t was not passed.
"a further reason for delaying
adoption of the ordinance was this:
The commission wanted the Rock
Island railway to submit definite
plans for the station and definite
agreement with the city Of Moline.
We had no intention of. giving
the Rock Island road parts of two
unless We had def
mite and written guarantees that
the road would give The people of
Moline something in return, that is,

ornamental park and a new street

alley between Fourth and Fifth
avenues and between Seventeenth
and Nineteenth streets.
That was the situation in June,
1913. The ordinance had lseen
prepared but 1t was not adopted.
The commission was waiting for
further plans and guarantees.
Then the Rock Island railway
was placed in the hands of a re-
ceiver. All plans for expenditure
of money for new stations were
called off. No further plans were

FALK CLAIMS THAT
HE rs THE VICTIM
OF A CONSPIRACY
Especial Moline service.)

Gust Falk, who is charged with
selling intoxicating liquor, will,
when his case comes up in Justice
Fred Entrikfns court, attempt 10
,show that he is the victim of a
frame-up.
Falk, who operates the Pastime
cafe, on Third avenue near Sig
teenth street, Moline, declares that
if there was alcohol found in the
drinks he served, it was put there
by the customer He says further
that the men who made the COM
plant against him attempted to
hold him up at the point of a gun.
The alleged "gun toter" says he had
a pair of pliers. One of the men
admits that he did try to collect an
old bill from FaIk, and then at
tempted to give F'alk licking when
the money was not forthcoming.
Falk says he does not owe the man
any money.
Failing to get the money, one Of
Falk's accusers seized a glass con-
tanning the drink that Falk had
served and took it TO the police
station. The contents were tested
by the city chemist and was found
ito contain more than SO per cent
alcohol. The police searched FaIk's
place some time after the alleged
hoId-up and found no intoxicating
liquors.
The police are not interested in
the alleged hold-up, as no complaint
was made in that case. They have.
however, a complaint against Falk
for selling Intoxicating liquor.
Falk was granted a change Of
venue this morning by Police Mag
istrate Frank Gustafson, as was
Henry Huyvaert, who also is
charged with selling intoxicating
liquor. Both cases have been set
for Oct. IA.
