CRUELTY TO CHILDREN.
BarberOus TOrtures Inflicted on Mere
Babes by Their Parents.

BarberOus TOrtures inflicted on Mere
Babes by Their Parents.
LONDON, May 13.-Mrs. Montagu has
lost her right and title to being the most
inhuman woman of the day, The re-
port of the society for the prevention
Of cruelty 70 children, which was pre-
sented at the annual meeting Wednes-
day, makes her share with dozens of
other women the reputation of unheard
of cruelty. One can scarcely believe
such cases of revolving brutality as re-
lated could have occurred. Not merely
poor and coarse people have been in
terfered with, but the society cites il
Vulnerable cases against families of
clergymen, military men, lawyers and
"tha gentry" The sufferings of the
four little Montagu children from the
continuous and inhuman cruelty of
their own mother are painfully illus
trated by the following disclosures;
Bruises inflicted on them head and foo;
beatings aLd screams heard in Mrs,
Montagu's bedroom, where the punish
ments were generally inflicted, and
cries of ooh, don't, mother cuts on
head, face and feet; confinement and
fasting in dark closet for long periods,
without food and sometimes with
out clothing: made to walk barefooted
on terrace outside house; tied to a tr, G;
dragged along head downward; bodies
looking as If scourged; clothing and bed
ding saturated with blood; bath sponges
covered with blood; deprived Of food for
the merest trifies; kicked across the sta
bic; hands put upon not pipes in the
stable.
When conduct such as this had appro-
priatefy cut short the existence of the
youngest child in that tragedy Of
hunger, nakedness, and binding in dark
closets, then, and noL till then, were
these deeds of darkness brought to
light. Some characteristic cases cited
by the society are worthy of notice, S
follows; Furnishing child by putting
pills into nostrils; putting lighted
matches into nostrils; biting child's
wrist and burning wound with matchc 5;
biting limbs of seVen-months baby;
leaving baby unified ont Of cradle until
toadstools grew round child out of rot
tonne8s; shutting up for hours in dark
closet two year-old child; tying rope
round boy Of six, dipping him into Il
canal, bringing him up, dipping him in
again, and repeating time after time;
tying cords tightly round thumbs, then
tying them, with extended arms and
feet, to the bedstead, and beating with
thorn brush

1t is authentic, being timed by
seven timer, judges and referees.
The time by the quarters was
:294, :5Sa, 1921, 1866 3-5.
Johnson was announced to start
at 6 o'clock. The announcement
brought out a large crowd from the
city and every horseman, driver
and rubber on the track. At least
fifty watches were held on the
mile.
ACCOMPANIED BY RELAYS OF HORSES
As in his previous mile, he
started ten feet back of the wire to
comply with League Of American
Wheelmen rules. 1t. was decided
BY T. w. Eek, Johnson's trainer,
to have two runners accompany
him, each going one-half mile.
Uncle Henry was the horse selected
for the first half of the journey.
They flew to the first quarter in

third quarter was passed in 1921.
Here the whip was vigorously ap-
piled to Gordon and the mile was
completed in the phenomenal time
of 1855 3.5.
So many timers were held on the
outside that no word was received
from the stand to tell the crowd
that the record was slashed. Seven
official timers gave the time. The
slowest caught was good enough.

ing through Alabama recently and
stopped at Tecumseh over Sunday
to feed the animals and rest.
Several hundred persons were
about the station as the train
approached. Just then one of the
lions, Hector by name. a ferocious
creature, managed to tear off the
door of his cage. He thrust his
head out right in the faces of a
group of negroes standing on the
platform.
They could not have been more
scared if the evil one had dropped
among them. With open mouth
Hector leaped into the crowd.
Such a scattering and yelling were
never seen and heard in Alabama
Some of the negroes fell down in
abjet fright, but most of them
struck out for home. A dozen
tried to climb telegraph poles
One man jumped into we'll.
Hector landed on his feet, but
rolled over and over. When he
got up there was hardly man
woman or child within fifty yards.
One woman, who had tainted, lay
near the lion.
With one bound he was upon
her, his teeth showing and his
tongue rolling out. The lookers-on
were Mortified. The k7per was a
long way off, and there was no one
near with pistol or rifle.
To the establishment of every
one the beast, instead of mangling
the woman, simply shifted at the
body, turned it over with his paws
and after cycling it suspiciously
walked away. He thought the
woman was dead.
Hector was captured and recaged
after some trouble. Con.

Discovery Of Missing Brother Among Jail In

Salem Statesman.
Ppm going to join the army and
will be gone three years." Thus
wrote young man to his dear old
mother and sisters at haune. The
boy was under sentence to State
Prison when he wrote the letter
that he supposed would quiet all
inquiry as to his whereabouts. He
had been found guilty of forgery,
and the Judge in pronouncing SEN
tence upon him gave him three
years at hard labor.
This was several months ago,
and the young man by this time
we'll acquainted with the monoton-
Gus routine of life in the Oregon
State Penitentiary. On Sunday
afternoon a couple of young ladies,
sisters, new arrivals in Salem,
visited the prison.
They arrived too late to be ad.
mitted to the services, but were
given seats in the waiting room.
At the first sound from the choir
they were interested, but as the
music of the song filled the chapel
and resounded tnrougout tho cor.
ridors they recognized familiar
sound in a sweet.toned voice that
carried the air. They advanced
nearer to the chapel, impelled by
they knew not what and glancing
through the barred doors recog-

they supposed TO be serving his

EARAcHE.

London TdBits.
There are simple remedies for
most common disorders requiring
no skilled attention, and even
experts are often willing to give
cures that anybody can manage.
No doubt many people have
thanked the man who published
without patent this easy relief for
the earache.
II am afraid 1 have greatly in
terfered with my own practice"
said a celebrated aurist, 'by giving
the following advice to many of my
friends:
CAT the first symptoms of ear
ache let the patient lie on the bed
with the painful ear uppermost.
fold a thick towel and tuck it
around the neck; then with tea
spoon fill the ear with warm water.
Continue doing this for fifteen
or twenty minutes. The water will
fill the ear oricce and flow over on
the towel. Afterward turn over the
head let the water run out and
plug the ear with warm glycerine
and cotton.
"This may be done every hour
until relief is obtained. 1t is al.
most an invariable cure and has
saved many cases of acute infam-
nation. The water should be
quite warm, but not too hot"
