GENIUSES IN POOR AB0DES
MANY Of the Worlds Great Men
Have Been Born In or Lived or
Died In squalld Atties.

A good many great men have lived
I'm attics and some have died there.
Attics, says the dictionary, are places
where lumber is stored" and the
world has used them TO store good
deal of its lumber In ut one time or
another. Its preachers and painters
and poets. Its deep-browed men who
mud out things, its tire-eyed men, who
will tell truths that no one wants to
hear--these are the lumber that the
world hides away In Its atties. Haydn
grew up In an attic, Chatterton starved
In one. Addison and Goldsmith wrote
In garrets.
Faraday and De Quincy knew
them well. Doctor Johnson camped
cheerfully In them, sleeping soundly
upon their trundle beds like the sturdy
old soldier OF fortune that he was.
Injured to hardships and careless of
himself. Dickens passed his youth
among them, MoIiand his old age.
Hans Andersen, the fairy King,
dreamed his sweet fancles beneath
their slipping roofs. Poor. maynard
hearted Collins leaned his head upon
their crazy tables. Benjamin Frank

Many Of Today's Most Common En-

Perhaps the saddest Of English

other words death" This word
did not come to US from the classic
lands of Greece and Rome. X was
one of the words Of the Germanic peo-
pies and has been English ever since
English was. The Angles, who came
to Britain from what Is now south
eastern Schieswig. called the land that
they invaded and helped to conquer
"Angieland" and from that WORD
England" "Anglische" or word
something like 1t. came TO be Eng
fish," These Angles. and all the other
Germanic peoples, had this WORD
death" long before the English Ian
guage was spoken, and In the earliest
English we find the word spelled
"deth' and sometimes "deeth" and no
doubt from the spelling "deeth" we
arrived at spelling death"
skull" was another word or our
GermanIc forebears and 1t meant
cup, bowl. or drinking vessel. and from
the shape Of mans head, as 1t ap'
peared long after death, the relic came
to be called Skull" because Its form
suggested Skull" "skole," or

FEDERAL SQUAD
RAIDS LINWO0D
ROadhOuse Ont of Davenport Clos
ed; Proprietor and Wife Ar
rested and Liquor Taken.

Federal agents cooperating with
a special sheriff's squad raided the
Kettnich and Jaeger roadhouse at
Linwood, Iowa, Saturday night,
keeping a number of patrons pris-
oners in the roadhouse for an hour
and a half until the raiders secured
sufficient alcoholic, liquor for evil
dence. George Kettnich and his
wife were arrested and taken to the
county jail.
Twelve bottles of home brew, two
quarts of whisky distributed in pint
bottles, quart of gin, and several
bottles containing a highball mix
ture were seized.
Strains of a jazz band were re-
sounding as the raiders drove their
car up 10 the resort which had
been in operation two years under
the management of Kettnich and
Jaeger. Dancing was in full swing
when the raiders descended, and a
number of Davenporters were hav-
ing a private party in separate
rooms when the blow fell.
The eight men in the raiding
squad opened the doors of the re-
sort and went through the rooms
rapidly, confiscating liquor and pre-
venting the escape of the merry
makers.
One frightened citizen overturned
a federal agent at the door and
made good his escape, although the
raider fired three shots in the air
in attempt to halt him.
The names of all in the road
house were taken, and it is said
that out of hundreds who were
present only two gave their right
names.
The raid was completed about
1870 o'clock Sunday morning.

CLAIMS RIGHTS
AS SUPERVISOR
W. r. Bradley Demands Recogni-
ton For Himself and Is Assist
ants by County Board

Responding to roll call at the
June session of the county board of
supervisors this afternoon, W. F.
Bradley, supervisor ELECT of the
new Rock Island township, alleged
to have been created by action of
the board made a demand that he
and the Is assistant supervisors
chosen at the April election be rec
ognized as members of the board.
Mr.. Bradley stressed the point
that no contest had been filed to
determine the legality of the cleo
ton, the law requiring, he affirmed,
that such contest be filed in the
county court within 80 days after
notice of such election, and that
unless such action was taken ques-
ton of the elections legality was
estopped.
He contended that the county
board has no right and no jurisdic-
ton to question either the suffici-
ency or legality of the election; that
the election of himself and his as
sistants was a township matter for
township officials and electors to
determine The boards only right,
he maintained, was to examine the
credentials, and if found regular, to
file them with the county clerk.
To the best of his knowledge,
Mr.. Bradley stated, the credentials
of himself and colleagues are on
file with the county clerk, and
therefore he and his associates, he
maintained, are entitled to sit on
the county board
He informed the board members
that as supervisors of townships
other than Rock Island, they can
not represent nor control Rock Is
land township in the matter of
elections, and the election having
been uncontested, it must now be
deemed regular, he said, and legal,
until tested lin some other manner
not made apparent"
Mr.. Bradley stated finally, that
he and his assistants intend to be
present and to participate in SEES
sions of the county board. and to
continue to do so until the board
finds some legal manner to have
the courts declare that he and his
assistants are unqualified.

PRESIDENT EBERT
OF GERMANY LIVES
VERY RETTREDLIFE

Berlin.-In a social sense. Presi-
dent Friedrich Ebert is probably
the most retiring chief of any Eu-
ropean democracy.
Society, as it is understood in 9TH
err capitals, is non-existent in Ber-
lin. The great majority of the old
Prussian democracy have with
drawn to the seclusion of their
country estates. They have no de
sire to mix with the newly rich, -
and the new order of things is
frankly repugnant to them.
Visitors are few at 70 Wilhelm
strasse and no country cousins
stop to cape at the old palace of the
erstwhile court marshal which the
president of the German republic
has made his home.
Rarely is the ex-saddler seen or
recognized in public and picture
postals of members of the Hohen-
zollern family are more plentiful in
stationery stores than those of Fritz
Ebert.
A formal reception at the presi-
Dental residence is therefore
something of an event in Berlin.
For the first time, Herr Ebert the
other evening entertained about
100 of the most prominent German
citizens who have made their peace
with the present regime or nearly
so.
Besides cabinet ministers and
chiefs of departments. there were
university professors, poets, sculp-
tors, musicians, painters. actors,
and authors.
President Ebert, welcoming his
guests. spoke of his desire to meet
personally the present leaders of
thought, arts and sciences of the
fatherland and dwelt on the impor-
lance such gatherings would have
in fostering culture which he con-
ceived it was the task of the new
republican regime sedulously to
promote.
Professor Adolf Won Harnack,

cution on the ancient conception of

GIVING INSURANCE
FOR CIRCULATION
AID PROVES COSTLY

London-It is an open secret that
the publishers of one or two of the
London penny morning newspapers
are sorry that they ever engaged in
the fierce competition which they
have been waging for some weeks
to gain circulation by giving sub
scribers free insurance for a va
riety of accidents, ills and all
ments
Having taken it up and doomed
themselves unsparingly as great
public benefactors, the papers do
not see their way to drop it without
great loss of prestige and circula-
ton.
One paper of large circulation
