education and career. Does this seem
too early to anticipate while the child is
vet unborn? 1t isn't. The child's des-
tiny has already been partly mapped out
by Nature according to the disposition
and habits of the parents. The best plan
a mother can make for the future happi-
ness of her unborn child is to maintain
her own cheerfulness and health while
her chiid's undeveloped being is still
part of hers. Her health at this critical
period Is Of tremendous consequence to
the little ones whole future existence.

Thirteen of Them Are Rounded Up by
the Authorities.


the Authorities.
CHICAGO, July 15.-The pair who have
been terrorizing the community for the
past two months are safe in the arms of
Chief Badenoch and his men. Both wero
identified yesterday. They are: John
o. Collins, the "long man." William
(alias "Red'') Sullivan, the ''short man."
Besides these the following have been
partially identified as connected with the
various crimes which make up the appall-
ing series: ED (alias "Brockie'') Murphy
Louis Larson, John Moran, William Con-
don, Patrick Lally, Cornelius Mccarthy,
Thomas MCGOWAN, William II. Burns
John Frazee, Thomas Mccarthy, William
j. Wiley.
The evidence against Collins is strong,
and it is Strengthening every hour When
he was brought up before the crowd of
over 100 people to be identified he shook
visibly. Men and women from nearly
every one of the places which have been
held up the robbers were packed in the
squad room at Central station waiting to
pick out the men whose victims they had
been. Close on to 100 of the ''pick-ups"
had been brought before the throng, when
John o. Collins was led up from down
stairs with three others closely guarded A
table separated him from the men and
women who were to be accusers. He tried
to assume defiant air as he walked in,
but as he faced the crowd he weakened.
There was a little stir, and several who
had been in the background pressed for
ward to get better look at him. Collins
was shaking from head to foot. He was
led down to the west end of the room,
where the women were. He could not be
seen from the other end. Miss Lucas, the
stenographer for the New York Biscuit
company, took long and steady look at
him. "That's the man." she said in u
low voice. Chief Badenoch had directed
all citizens who identified anybody to
keep quiet about it at the time giving
their names to him for use later.
The New York Biscuit people, including
Cashier Hynes and Assistant Manager
Goan, looked at him earnestly. Then
they talked to each other in whispers. II
am quite positive he's the man." said each
one of them. The desperate "long mans
knees were trembling. He tried to talk,
but the words would not come Finally
he managed to say, in n choked voice:
won't you let me say something's"
Certainly" said Chief Badenoch in a
triumphant voice. snake speech to
these people if you like. Say anything
you want to-"
collins spoke barely above whisper.
"All l want to say" said he, sis that if
any of these people accuse me of doing
anything wrong, I'd like-Td like to say
something TO them. I'd like to say-pd
like to say -" His voice failed him at
this point and he could go no further.
"We'l give you chance to say it later
said Chief Badenoch. Wen give you
plenty of chances Take him back down
stairs"
Sullivan was also identified as the
"short' man with more or less emphasis.
