world knows about them. Some of
them are real scandals-no DENY
ing that. And some of them are
posed scandals-little infeIici-
cities magnified into front page i'm
portance by those concerned in or
der that their names NAV be
Drought prominently before the
public with little regard to the re-
action that the public will have.
And so when it happens that a
motion picture actor has lust cele-
brated his golden wedding anniyer-

than passing mention.
Frederick Warde recently ceIe-

sary, and his seventy-first birth
day anniversary and the fiftieth an
nlversary of his appearance on the
stage.
Inere may be others in the act

The point of this is that no nrese
agent has fastened to proclaim n
circumstance that rebounds to tho
credit OF the motion picture profess
sion, while press agents have bur
ried into print with stories con-
nected with certain occurrences
that have reflected no credit uuon

Much of the odium that attaches

BURGLAR FLEES
BEFORE BULLET
BY A POLICEMAN
Especial Moline Service.)

A burglar attempted to rob the
safe at the Standard Oil company
filing station, 3S11 Fifth avenue,
Moline, early this morning. The
attempt almost cost him his life,
for when he crawl<d through the
window of the office a bullet from
the revolver of Policeman Everett
Temple came dangerously close to
the mans head. The burglar got
away, however. Temple and Pc
licemen Walline and Peterhoff
searched the railroad yards back
of the station, but failed to find a.
trace of their man.
Entrance to the office was forced
with crowbar, and a sledge ham
mer was used to break the lock on
the safe. The burglar failed to get
to the cash box
This was the third time within
the last several months that the
station was entered. On another
occasion the station agent was
bound and gagged and robbed Of
sos.
A Ford automobile bearing
license No. 39S-636, was found west
of the station, and was taken TO
police station.

FRED SWANSON
TO FILL HIS JUG,
CLAIM OF IOWAN
Especial Moline Service

Fred Swanson, who is said to
conduct soft drink par1or in Rock
Island, became involved in a rath-
er complicated affair in East Mo-
line without his knowledge yester-
day afternoon.
Lester Adams of What Cheer,
Iowa, was questioned by the police,
after it was reported that he had
obtained some hooch from the home
of Seraphin VanCotter, who resides
near Swanson in East Moline. Van
Cotter was arrested, but it was
learned later that the Iowan was
waiting for Swanson, who, Adams
was told, had gone to Galesburg.
Adams had a five-gallon empty jug
in his automobile. He declared
friend of Swanson's had sent him
to get the jug filled. He was re-
leased after being questioned and
sent on his way to What Cheer.
VanCotter, it is said. admitted to
the police having sold liquor, but
had made no sale to Adams He
will probably be tried on a charge
of selling intoxicating liquor.

EMPLOYEES SUE

Signal Men Claim $500 O0O Still Due
as Wages Earned Under
Federal Control

Omaha. Neb., April 24.-Alleglng
that 100000 is still due them as
wages earned during federal con-
troll of railroads, signalmen and
signal maintainers of the Union Pa
cific system, have filed suit in fed
eraI court here and in district court
at Council Bluffs, Iowa, against the
director-general of railroads, as
agent of the United States, it be-
came known here today.
The employees allege that under
a government wage award during
federal control of the railroads,
they should have been paid IS cents
an hour for the first 16 months of
federal control and 70 cents an
hour for the balance of 26 months,
whereas they allege, they were paid
only IS and So cents an hour, re-
spectively, for the two periods.
The employees, who are suing in
tne name of ]. Z. Morledge, chair
man of the Brotherhood of Signal
mel as trustee for them, contend
in their actions that back payments
are due the great majority of sig
nalmen and signal maintenance
men. ranging from a few dollars to
more than $1,000 per man.

THOUSANDS SEE
FLOOD WATERS
Endless Chain of Automobiles All
Day Long; Ford PIunges In
20 Ditch.
Especial Moline scrviceo

Especial Moline Service.)
Sightseers-tho thousands of them
visited the flooded districts in East
Moline and the east end OF Moline
yesterday, and most OF the s. $.
found conditions worse than they
had expected TO find them.
From the rising Of the sun uTl-
til the going down of the same two
endless chains of automobiles
wound their way along the main
thoroughfare between Moline and
East Moline An official OF the
street car company reported this
morning that East Moline cars
hauled / 200 more passengers dur
ing the day than normally.
Because of the heavy traffic con-
eestiou could scarcely be avoided
and four members of the East Mo-
line police department, who acted
az traffic policemen had their
bands full
There was one accident, but 1t is
surprising that there wasn't more.
Gus Peterson. 2715 Eleventh ave-
nue., Moline, drove his Ford pas
senger car into a ditch on NINE
teenth street between sixth ana
Seventh avenues at Ais O'Clock.
In the machine, besides Mr.. Peter
son were a man and woman ana
two children. No one was hurt,
but all of the occupants got wet
There was about a half Ioot OF
water in the ditch. 1t is said that
the "wishbone' of the machine was
broken, and the driver was unable
to steer a straight course. Inc
lives and machines OF other mo-
florists were jeopardized during
Peterson's wild ride preceding the
plunge. The ditch is about tlVe
feet deep.
Motorists insisted on stopping to
learn what had happened and tra1-
fic was halted for some time on
this account.
One enterprising riverman, avail
ing himself of the opportunity 10
make a few dollars, hauled sight
seers as far as the street car bridge
in a launch. He did a big business
in the afternoon.
The water is receding, it was re-
ported this morning, and unless a
severe rainstorm occurs, the stage
of the river is expected to be back
to normal in ten days.
Plans are already in the making
for providing protection for the
district affected by the flood wat
ers. Deere & Co. have taken the
initiative, it is said, toward de-
vising a way to avoid recurrence
of conditions as at present.
Houses between Third ana
Fourth avenues on Forty-nlnth
street and parallel streets clear to
F'ifty-sixth, Moline, are surround
ed by water, and Easements are
filled.
