One day little Dora was busy at the
ironing table smoothing the towels and
stockings.
"Isnt it hard work for the little
arms?" I asked.
Alook of sunshine came into her face
as she glanced toward her mother,
who was rocking the baby.
"It isn't hard work when I do it for
mamma" she said, softly.
How true it is that love makes labor
light and sweet!

THE BAI.IiMORE TRAGEDY,
Canatelio Gives His Version Of the Trouble
With Buchner.

Mr. Celso Caesar Mareno went to Baltimore
from Washington yesterday to investigate the
charges against Canatello Carmello who is
accused OF killing frederick II. Buchner by
shooting him Sunday morning. Mr.. Mareno
said he thought Carmello spoke poor English
and was likely to be misunderstood. He
visited Carmeilo at the western police station
and asked him to make a true statement of the
fight which resulted in Buchners death. first
compelling Carmello, he said. to cross himself.
Mr. Mareno first ascertained the mans right
name, which he says properly written in En-
glish is Carmello Canatello, the last name being
his family name, though written first by Italian
usage which has come about through the rigid
system Of registering each person. Canatello
writes his own name thus: ''Canatello Car
mello."
Mr.. Narenos statement. as written down
rfter CaEatellos dictation, IL as follows: ''On
July % an unknown man came TO the store OF
Canateiio at Pratt and Howard streets and
approaching Canatello = wife offered her money
and made improper proposals, accompanied by
vulgar gesture. Canatelo Is Siciiian, thirty
three years old, with the hot blood of his race
in his veins, and is jealous OF his pretty wife.
He pushed the man out Of his store and the
man knocked Canatello down upon the side
walk and then ran away. Canatello was bruised
and highly eNasperated by having Witnessed
the insults offered his wife and by having beer
beaten in her presence while trying to defend
her.
''On Sunday morning abort 2 o'clock three
men, one OF whom resembled the man wEo had
the fight with Canatcllo on July %. came to
Canatel!os store and asked in IneTacing why
for drinks and cigar. lie offered quarter OF
dollar in payment. Canatellc returned 10
cents which was the proper change. One of
the men objected He WAS the enc whom
Cana.sllo believed to have encountered him
foTr days before. Then fight began, viii
three men against one. Canatello found him
self .verpowered. ischcst was scratched and
bruised and his upper lip cut by heavy blow,
while his wife went INTO hysterlcal state.
Canatello drew mis- e~olyer from his pocket ana
