THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Col. John J.
MeCook, Of New York, will be secre-
tary of the interior. As recently
planned, hewas to be encouragement,
and Judge McKenna, of California,
was to be secretary Of the interior.
Judge McKenna being a Catholic, and
as the secretary of the interior handles
the sectarian school questions, the
judge concluded that he would en-
counter unusual embarrassments in
that position. For this reason a re-
casting of the cabinet to this extent
has resulted. Col. McCook is a mem
Der of the law firm of Alexander &
Green, New York city, and is a director
and the general counsel of the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad Co.
The great economic questions of the
day have received his closest attention.
In national politics he has ever taken a
great interest, and has been prominent
in discussions of national issues.

Mr.. Bryan has, without intending it,
perhaps, added TO The political nomen-
clature of the hour. His comparison of
so-called gold democrats to the duck
ling and disturbing element of an old
hens household was timely, happy and
to the point,
But the democratic eagle doesn't pro
pose to have any Web-footed children in

ITO use a common Illustration, a hen is

q few ducks which insist upon padding
10 the water while the chickens are con-
tent to scratch upon the land. The demo-
cratic. party will in like manner be i'll at
ease If il has a few Web-foOted members
who insist upon crossing the ocean for

A HOMELESS BABE
It Is Brought to the Police Station to
Be Kept Over NIGHT

A pathetic incident occurred at the
police station last night. An old man
walked In carrying little three-days-
old babe in his arms and asked permis-
sion to leave the infant there until
morning. He was the child's grand
father and stated that his name was
T.. J. Ervan, and that he lived in Orange
county, on the Santa Ana river, short
distance north of Yorba. The baby's
mother, Mrs. ]. H. Taylor died on Sun
day, few hours after the child's birth.
The father died at Santa Barbara sew
eral months ago.
Ervan Is living alone on a ranch. He
has no way to care for the babe. Yes
terday he came to this city for the pur-
pose of placing it in the foundlines'
home, at the corner of Twenty-fifth
street and Central avenue. He was in
formed that the whooping cough was
raging In the home, and that the child
could not be admitted. He then went to
the Protestant orphans home, corner
OF Yale and College streets. Here, too,
admission was refused, as no children
under year old are admitted.
The old man was without money. and
had no place to stay all night. AS a
last resort he came to the police station
and asked to leave the baby there until
morning. The child was turned over to
Matron Gray. and she agreed to take
charge of 1t during the night. The old
man had only ten cents left, but he de-
parted saying he would return in the
morning and continue the search for a
home for his little grandchild.
