What do we reap from all the years
or strife and bitterness and tears?
At nit of laughter here and there,
A ribbon for the wife to wear.
Her smile of welcome and caress,
These are the threads of happiness.
True friends whose voices ring witt
cheer
Make sweet the days of toiling here,
And to possess baby's smile
Makes every hour of care worth while
We should regret baby's birth
II care and anguish ruled the earth,
Yet world wide over smiles or joy
Welcome the newborn girl or boy
Into this realm of life where tears
And pain and burdens scare the years
Because, with all we've known and
met,
The trials that have made us fret,
The disappointment and defeat,
Life to the human heart Is sweet.

F|ANCE PROBES
GIRLS DEATH
Causes Investigation Resulting in
\ Arrest Of Bloomington Girls
Law.

Bloomington, ILL.,, Aug. 23.-Clar-
ence Law, Windsor, Colo, who was
to have married Edna F. Skinner
this fall, was instrumental in caus-
ing investigation into the death of
his intended wife and for which
death her brother-in-law, Albert +
Lowe, is held. According to the
story of the dead girls mother,
Lowe drove his wife and three chill
dren to church and then returned
to the home, where he was alone
with his sister-in-law. J. E. Briggs
school teacher, lived near and
heard a piercing shrek. He start
ed to investigate, when Lowe asked
him to sound the fire alarm as his
house was on fire. He made no
mention Of the girl.
Firemen stumbled over the bodv
in the kitchen. 1t was surrounded
by a pool Of blood, which. authori-
ties state, woulS not result from
burns alone.
Lowe said the stove had expiod-
ed, but afterward the dead girls
sister found unburned gasoline in
the stove reservoir. Lowe. it is
said, purchased a gallon of gaso-
line the day previous.
After the death Lowe was ex-
tremely nervous and acted In such
a manner that Law and the family
made an investigation.

ing. if possible.
The first respite from school
work thereafter, for students,
though not for their teachers, will
come Oct. 80 to Nov. 8, when the

COLUMBIA READY
FOR OPENING OF
SEASON THURSDAY

The vaudeville season opens to.
morrow afternoon at the Columbia
theatre in Davenor,, the house
having been thoroughly renovated
during the summer. New scenery
and a fine lighting system have
been installed. Vaudeville will be
presented Thursday, Friday. Sat
urday and Sunday of each week,
the first three days to be reserved
for legitimate road attractions,
thus filling the vacancy caused by
the burning of the Burtis theatre.
For two seasons the attractions
have been coming to the Illinois
theatre in Rock Island exclusively.
and managers have been seeking
an outlet in Davenport as we'll, SO
the turning over of the Columbia
for this purpose settles the prob
lem in a satisfactory way.
Each Columbia vaudeville bill
will contain six Orpheum acts. The
promise is that there will be many
standard eastern acts never before
seen here. The Orpheum circuit
is affiliated with the B. F. Keith
circuit of theatres. which operates
east of Chicago, and from this
great reservoir of talent the tri-
cities will get much of their enter
tainment the coming season. The
Columbia policy will be the same
as last season-two performances
daily at 2:45 and 8:15, with two
shows Saturday and Sunday nights
at 7:15 and 9 p. m.
Harry Chappell remains as man.

have as his box office assistants,

been orchestra director since the
Columbia was built, will again be
seen in the pit.

ILLINOIS COAL
TO COME SOON,
DEALERS STATE
Expect Shipnents in . Week Of
Ten Days; Prices May Be . 81
or q . Ton Higher.

Coal from Illinois mines will ar
rive in Rock Island in about .
week or 10 days. local coal dealers
say.
Although no prices have beer
given to the merchants. yet they are
estimating that coal will probably
be about $50 or 81 ton higher
than last year at this time.
Information from the Rock Is.
land Office of the w. G. Block Goa
company, a tri-city concern, today
was that it would be receiving coal
in fairly good quantities toward
the latter part Of next week or the
fore part of the following week
The Block company was in touch
with the mines this morning and
although no quotations were given
indications we're that the price
would not exceed the price of last
year at this time by much more
than $3.50 ton. According to the
record of the Block company the
price for the best soft coal offered
a year ago was about $40.
Some of the Illinois miners went
to work today and others will go
to work within the next few days
as soon as official word from their
union leaders are received and the
mines are made ready for opera
tons to begin.
Although the miners will receive
the same wage as last year, deal
ers are of the opinion that oper-
ators will be able to demand a
larger price for their product
Some entertain a slight hope that
later in the season coal will be
available for approximately the
same price asked a year ago.
No Coal Famine.
Rock Island people need not
worry about coal famine, local
merchants assert, and the home
needs will be supplied, although
probably not as readily as in other
years. The homes are depending
on their dealers to take care of
them and small lots will probably
be furnished at intervals instead of
delivering the entire supply for the
winter at one time.
