HOSPITAL FOR BABIES.
Denver to Establish a Home for Indi
gent Infants.

Denver, May 5.-The actual work of
preparing for the hospital for babies has
now commenced in earnest. The COM
mIttees appointed at the meeting on
Thursday, yesterday began their work
and on every hand met with the most
cordial and enthusiastic encourage
ment. There is much to be done during
the coming month to get everything
prepared and ready for the babies by
the first of June. The warm weather
yesterday was an indication of what
was coming later on and the plans are
to have accommodations for as many
babies as possible. 1t is the intention
also to give preference to babies under
two years of age. though children up
to five years will be taken
The camp to be established near the
City park will have a capacity for the
care Of 80 children with the necessary
nurses and help. This will require 10
sleeping tents, a kitchen tent, dining
tent and one large tent for a day nurs-
cry. There mus be beds and bedding,
water, coal, provisions of all kinds and
numerous things that go to make up
the equipment of such a camp. The one
item of milk alone Will be important.
The milk used Will be carefully watch
ed by officers of the health department
and sterilized daily so that the little
ones will run no risk from it's use. It is
expected that most of the provisions
will be donated by merchants of the
city, but there viii be plenty Of places
where money will have to be used.

EARLY DAYS IN NEBRASKA
CITY

(CoI. Higginson in the May Atlantic)
The tavern where I lodged in Nebras-
ka City was miserable enough; the
beds fearfully dirty. the food indigesti-
Bile, and the table eagerly beset by
three successive relays of men. One
day a commotion took place in the
street; people ran out to the doors; and
some 80 rough riders came cantering
up to the hosiery.
They might have been border raiders
for all appearance of cavalry order;
some rode horses. some mules; some
had brides, other lariats of rope; one
man had a slight semblance of uniform
and seemed sort of lieutenant.
The leader was a thin man of middle
age, in a gray wooden shirt, with keen
eyes. smooth tongue, and q capacity of
courteous and even fascinating man
ners; a sort of Prince Rupert of hum
bier grade.
This was the then celebrated Jim
Lane, afterwards Senator James H.
Lane Of the United States congress; at
TINS time calling himself only Major
General commanding the Free State
Forces of Kansas
He was now retreating from the ter
ritory with his men, in Difference to
the orders of ting United States govern
or, Geary, who was making an attempt
more or less serious to clear Kansas of
armed bands on both sides. Lane stop
ped two days in Nebraska City, and I
did something towards refitting the
clothing of his band; he also made a
speech to the citizens of the town-they
being then half balanced between anti
slavery and pro-slavery sympa thies-
and have seldom heard eloquence
more thrilling, more tactful, better ad-
justed to the Occa sion.
Mr.. r. w. Emerson, remember, was
much impressed by a report of his
speech as sent by me to some Boston
newspaper.
Lane went with me, I think, to see
our emigrants encamped near by; gave
march into the territory and ended by
handing me a bit of crumpled paper
appointing me member of his staff,
with the rank of brigadier general

woRK1NamEN AND WIVES.

CTaverner in Time and the Hour)
Some of the street fakirs, particularly
those who sell small articles of domestic
utility, are Crookes tubes, emitting rays
by which one can see deep into human
nature.
The man who sells potato parers and
slicers on fremont street is a case in
point.
I pass him every day, and although
his wares are intended to tighten the
work of women-the housekeepers-
and in themselves have no interest for
men, it is always men who gather about
him. Women glance and pass on; men
look and Iinger. The falxir takes up a
potato and pares it with seductive care.
When he has finished the stolid looking
laborer in the blue jumper and overalls
glanceS shamefacedly at the la borer in
brown on his left; and then, if you look
closely, you will see his hand go into
his pocket and come out with a dime.
The fakir, who has watched a good deal
more closely than you or I, already has
the little machine in a paper bag Inc
laborer takes it and departs; and then
his neighbOr in brown pays his 10 cents,
and takes his goods and goes away
Now, what interests me is this. That
it is not women, but men, who buy
these kitchen utensils; that the men are
generally of those who work with their
hands, and under conditions which do
not foster sentiment or delicacy of per
ception; and. lastly, that the men al
most always glance sheepiShly at each
other before they buy, and hurry away
as soon as the deed is done.
I have thought about it a good deal
Is it that poverty brings these men so
much nearer to their wives, and makes
them sharers of all the little difficulties
of woman's work so much more than
is the case with men of larger means,
that they are the more ready to provide
things which will tighten those difficult
ties. or is it that my friend of the blue
overalls knoweth his frame and thinks
it very probable that he will go home
drunk, and to that end wisely provides
something which, carrying the sugges-
tiOn of personal sympathy, will be more
potent than ten times its cost in money
as a windbreak against the domestic
storm? 1 leave the decision to you.
