trial in J jstiro Cleland's court, and
"We have not given up hope of getp I

said J. W. Walsh, secretary of the

"What about coming in over the
Tri-City Railway company's lines?" he '
was asked.
"That is impossible," was the re
ply. "There are two reasons. One
is that our cars have one and one-half-inch
flanges, which will not fit
the girder rails of the street railway
line. The other is that our motors
are made to utilize an alternating cur
rent, while the power on the city lines
is from a direct current. It is im
possibly to Install transformers on the
cars."
"What about ths talk of running
your line into Moline by buf.ding a
new road north from Southern Junc
tion?" was asked.
"We have Investigated that matter,
but have gone no rurther," was the
reply.
"Are you backing the new road that
is being promoted between Muscatine
and Southern Junction?"
"We are not; in fact, I was not
aware that such a line is being pro
moted." President J. F. Porter of the Tri

Protex Covers
For Your Shirts
Here is an innovation and an added feature
which will prove of great popularity with all men.
"Protex Cover" for shirts are fine dust proof
envelopes, into which we place all dress shirts, so
that when your shirts are returned to you they are
assured of being as spick and span as when they
left this Best, Biggest nnd Busiest Laundry in
Davenport.
Each shirt is in its own Prctex Cover." These
are not cheap oiled paper envelopes, but a very su
perior protector, better than anything ever before
used in this vicinity.
Have YOUR Shirts done i-p at the best laundry
and sent to you in the best and most up-to-date
manner.

From the foregoing it is plain that
tl.o problem of terminals In re for the
Rock Isliiiii; Southern is as lar from
solution as ever Undoubtedly tne
load's passenger and express business
would be greater if the cars were run
to the business center of the city ar.d
the running time could be reduced if
t'.e lnteruri a i cars transferred to the
T'i-City lines in the vicinity of Sears,
coining in over the Watch Tower line.
This would shorten the distance a full
mile and afford as direct a route as
(Otiid be laid out. Hy this plan the
Southern would retain nparly all of
the considerable 6hare of its business
that is turned over to the Tri-City
Railway company at Milan. Then, too,
it would be easy to arrange a loop to
First avenue, east of Seventeenth
street and the city could afford to
erect the waiting station on Market
suuare that las been discussed for i
some time.
; This suggestion was marie to Mr.
j Walsh but from his attitude it was
I gathered that his company U not pre-.
! pared to entertain any other planB so
! long as there is a possibility of getting
Inr Independent terminal over which:
iboth passenger and freight business'

A police raid upon a First avenue
rooming house at 9 o'clock last night
resulted in the arrest of 20-year-old
Grace Miller, a former inmate of the
Geneva borne for girls, who Is now out
on parole. This morning the pris
oner was charged with disorderly con
duct and the case continued until
Thursday, bonds being fixed at $400.
The Miller girl, subsequent to her
' parolement, has been drifting about
the country, having stayed for a time
at Galesburg, Monmouth and other cit
ies. She arrived in Rock Island Dec.
27, and since that time has been em
ployed as chambermaid at the room
ing house in question. It is alleged
by the police that the girl has been
living an immoral life, and pending a
more extended investigation into her
past, she is being held at the county
jail. The Miller girl, who has been
married and separated from her hus-
appeared In police court
morning. It Is the intention of the
authorities to communicate with the
officials at the Geneva institution, and
the girl will probably be returned to
her former haunts.
