BABIEs.-The Pail Mall Gazette SAYS that
nowadays people, instead of wanting to get
rid OF babies, are bent upon acquiring them,
and it is quite as unsafe to leave baby about
as an umbrella. The infant is snapped up In
moment, and the chances are a dozen TO
one against it's ever being restored to its
proper owner. Indeed, SO frequent are these
Interpretations of babies that they can
only be accounted for by supposing that the
babies are taken by mistake; absent persons
pick up baby as they would a pair of gloves
or any other article of small value. The
following advertisement, which appeared
in the Daily Telegraph, shows how easily,
nowadays, babies may be lost: ''The lady
who held baby in Regents park on Thurs

her return could not be found, is requested

An Aged Gentleman Dies ON a Rail-

Yesterday there was a sad scene on the
na. ssenger train of the Nashville. and North
wes,. arm railroad train. At Union City an
aood o entleman named Boyd L. Belcher,
a9ed Al. out seventy, with his wife and a
married daughter, having four children,
took nassae, a for this city. The party was
from Arkan sas and en- route for White

Formerly lived. at the time he was placed
on the train Mr., b elcher was quite ill, and
IL was evident be CO uld not live long. A
few miles this side of Burns station he
breathed his last, sum ounoeo Oy ms as
tressed family. The dead oody was brought
to this city, and the wife be. ug III, Ia destitute
circumstances, Superintendent lnoinSs nau
it place, in a coffin, to be foTN Srueu tIIS
morning to White county. Up u reacn-
ing the city the wife of ths ueao
man went in search Of two cit zeLs
whom she said were kinsmeD, and won. ID
assist to release her. Finding one OF the
two, she was informed that he was not re-
lated to her husband, and hence the hand
of others gave her aid. 1t is sad enough
to see the loved one die at home, but when
death comes to seize its victim from the
speeding train, Fastening the life spirit to
another destination, the sorrow, the an
guish, know but little consolation, and its
most beautiful calm is from the look of
compassion and the kindly hand of charity.
