More than three-quarters of the

ground for fifty years without being

many years over a great portion Of
the land and the grass is ideal.

point the holes are laid out with
an intent to call forth every pos
sible shot in the golf bag. There
are three or four holes which in
time will rank with the best in
the country and will probably be-
come historic.
While the Indian Spring course
calls for a true test of golfing abil-
ity, II possesses the unique dis
tinction of not taxing to any great
extent the strength of the golfer.
The fairways are rolling, but not
hilly, and the going is not exhaust

 There is such an impression but 1t Is incorrect.

If only a small area is con- sidered this is true. but in referring tn widely separated localities. such as fhe rise and mouth of the Mis-, sissippi system. such 9 definition does not hold good.

 In studying the amount of light in the sky on q starllt night, one scien' list has reached the interesting con. clusiOn that the luminosity of the sky is caused partly by direct starlight and partly by some other source of light. This latter he proposes to call ''earthlight," and he suggests that it may be due to a permanent aurora attending the earth. The light is var fable, not only on different nights, but at different hours of the same night. He has found it to De from seven to fifteen times the amount cf mean star light, but it is believed that this ratio IS exceptional, and does not prevail everywhere.

 Where Darwin Was Wrong.
 Talk about Darwinian theory of de- velopment, and the principle of nat uraI selection! 1 should like to see garden left to run in accordance with it. If 1 had left my vegetables and weeds to a free fight. in which the strongest specimens only should come to maturity. and the weaker go to the wall, I can clearly see that l should have had a pretty mess of it. It would have been a scene of passion, license and brutality. This "pusley" would have strangIed the strawberry; the upright corn, which has now ears to hear rhe guilty beating of the hearts of children who steal the raspberrtes' would have been dragged to the earth by the wandering bean; the snake grass would have left no place for the potato under ground; and the tomatoes would have been swamped by the lusty weeds.

Three Moline Police Detailed ia
Meet Silvis Shop Train Find
Things Quiet

Three Moline policemen who
were called to the Rock Islnad pas
senger station at Thirteenth street
to protect shop workers Of Silvis
from assault by strikers, had moth
ing to do. When the shop train
pulled into Moline, the police saw
only two special federal agents at
the station to meet the workers. Not
a single striker nor any Of their
sympathizers was present.
The special agents are said to
have appealed to the police for aid
because they feared violence when
the shop train reached Moline last
night. Strikers, it is said, have
threatened several of their number
who are reported to have returned
to work. Report that a large num-
Der of strikers had returned to
work was denied today by both
union officials and men in charge
of the shop.
The deputies who summoned the
police had no explanation to offer
for failure Of the riot to ma~terialize.
There wasn't a person at the
station when the shop train pulled
in, except two deputy marshals,'
said Policeman Charles Gallagher,
one Of the three men detailed to
come to the rescue" Of the non
| union men.
