WHOLESALE MURDER,

Founding Asylum In San Francisco
Was n slaughter House for Babies.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. ll.-A shocking
scandal has been caused here by the
rumors Of the investigation Of the San
Francisco founding asylum, where
thirty-three babies have died within
the past six weeks. The place was
closed Thursday last and twenty-four
foundlings were given into the custody
OF the Catholic infant shelter. The
coroner ascertained that thirty-three
waits died from lack Of nutrition and
from inanition and pemphigus The
daughters Of the Good Shepherd have
publicly branded the asylum rs q
slaughter house for babies. The sani-
tary conditions are very bad.
II is charged that the nurses and at
tendants occupied the sunny rooms up
stairs and kept the babies in damp,
dark apartments. Before the coroner
1t was developed that dead babies had
been kept on the premises four days
The official undertaken Of the institu-
tion testified that when the infants
died the attendants put their bodies In
n box under the doorsteps and kept
them there like so much garbage until
he came 10 take them away.

nothing else rewarded his eager search;

again and reconnoitered the prospect

Soon afterwards the boat reached the
rocks. William Jones sprang out, and,
running up to the platform above, took
another survey. This being satisfacto-

box out Of the boat, carrying 1t with
ease under one arm.

HlEh stools for Kitohsns.

Every well-appointed kitchen should
contain at least one Office stool, such
as are used by clerks who write at high
desks. II allows mistress or maid TO
work as readily sitting or standing at
various employmenta, without that
wearisome gesture OF stretching up the
arm TO level with table or ironing
board. Another important advantage
Is that the feet rest upon It's rounds
and thus remove the weight Of tho
body from them. This In itself Is moro
comfortable and refreshing than wom-
en- are accustomed TO consider, and tho
ease with which one may turn about
on revolving seat is wonderful con-
yenience.

YELLOWSTONE FOSSIL FORESTS.
fTo DE CONTINUED

Silicified Stumps OF Trees which Bloomsd
Thousands Of Years Ago.
These standing silicifled stumps and
fallen trees were found varying In d.
ameter from one to seven feet, says
writer In the Popular Science Monthly.
Two sections Of trees were found 30
perfect that the rings Of annual growth
thrcfEhdat could be counted. except q
few, fifteen or twenty, near the heart
and bark. One tree measuring three
feet In diameter, had two hundred and
twenty-five rings of growth, and an
other Of three feet five inches In d.
ameter had two hundred and forty
three--this without any allowance for
few missing rings at the center and
toward the bark. The larger of these
trees was only about half the size of
the largest seen. Many were found
varying in diameter from five TO seven
feet, but none OF this size was seen ex-
posing the rings throughout the entire
section. Judging from the closeness Of
the rings In certain well-preserved por-
tions Of these larger trees many Of
them must have been at least FIVE hum
dred years in attaining their growth,
II the rings were truly annual TAX
ing one-half this number, two hun
dred and fifty years, as the more prob
able age of the successive forests at this
point, II is seen that the earliest Of
these trees were living more than two
thousand years before the last, during
which time there were alternating con-
ditions Of growth and accumulation Of
volcanic material. This estimate makes
no allowance for the time necessary
for the formation Of a soil upon the
volcanic material, which at first sight
would seem necessary for the support
of such vigorous vegetation. 1t Is
not probable, however, that any con-
siderable time was necessary for this
purpose, for, with rare exceptions,
each succeeding forest took root and
began to grow very promptly after the
destruction Of its predecessor. In most
cases the destroying flood consisted Of
mud, ashes, conglomerate and other
volcanic material, which formed an ex-
cellent base for vegetation, and II was
doubtless covered with q luxuriant
growth as soon as II was dried or cooled
sufficiently, and this would require
only short time.
