What and where is the St. Paul
Catholic Infants Home? Is it only an
other name for the babies home Of ST.
Paul, or the Day nursery, or the Or
phan asylum?
To put an end to long -draWn-out
confusion, the women running the sew
eral institutions answer mo" It Is
the distinctive name and the only name
of a babies refuge. described In the
second annual report Of the society as
situated prettily upon a knoll which
looks southwark on Martin street at
the corner of Mackubin street on ST.
Anthony hill, and whose interest A
matron jealousy watches and guards
You will find there also that this
home is always open for the reception
of little waits. and keeps and main
tains them until they have reached the
age of two years, when they are placed
In the orphanage unless adopted by
those who prove themselves competent
and worthy Of their nurture and edu-
cation" You will find in that report
too, that the home, from October 1896
till January, 1897, cared for eighty eight
babies until they were returned to

that we are not a part of the Relief
society," and that when donations are
addressed to that organization they do
not come to the Day nursery. This is
the only explanation that 1 can make
for the fact that on THANKSGIVING,
Christmas and New Years not a cake
or doughnut was sent to these chill
dren from outside"
Did you get anything from the Re-
lief society?"
They gave us, and always do give
US, what they can, but it cost $40 per
month to run this institution, and thew
have their own charges to care for,
yet I am sure if people knew our needs
and what we are doing they would do

The nature of the institution should
appeal especially to mothers. She who
devotes her entire time to her one or
two children will appreciate the effort,
patience and means needed to care for
from sixteen to thirty babies under two
years of age. It will not be hard fol-
her to lay aside her sentiment and
draw out the little discarded shoes,
stockings, dresses and so forth, from
the drawers that they may clothe these

of whom are employed as nurses in the

The words have a ring that makes
an echo from the chords of human
sympathy. and that nature is strung
to a low pitch of humanity which
does not respond to the nocturne of
pain. poverty and pathos which the
very name calls up. Yet with the
great majority of people the effect is
no more lasting than an echo, and even
that is quickly muftled with the accus-
atiVe question: What's the use Of
supporting a Babies Home, when there
is a Home for the Frendless, an or

institutions maintained by the public
for just that purpose?" Owing to con-

When the woman Of ease and ele-
gance steps out to help the woman Of
toll and pain it is a guaranty that the
blight Of self1shness has not and is not
going to cover the earth. 1t Is one
thing for a woman Of means to give
from a plethoric purse to the beggar
at her door that she may allay the
discomfort caused by the sight; it is
another thing when she goes out to
seek the homes Of deserted mothers
and deserted fathers, too, and helps to
keep the shattered family together.
Such work as this is represented by
the st. Paul Day Nursery association,
which. though owning it's home in the
rear Of the Relief society hall, since
1895, is a distinct organization in itself,
having a constitution and bylaws,
parts of which are given here.
The secretary's books show that the
society was founded by DR.. Mitchell;
that it's first president was Mrs c. B.
Thurston. and that it's charter men,
bers We're Mrs A. e. Clark, Mrs. w.
d. Cornish, Mrs. c. B. Thurston and

ganized in 1888.

Soldiers Fessted.

Ninety-eight men, in charge OF
Lieutenant Bidwell, passed through
town early Monday morning on
their way from Pueblo to San
Francisco to recruit the First Reg
iment OF Colorado, now on their
way to the Philippines. Among
them were six Rocky Ford boys
and FIVE from La unta-David
Bates, James Doran, Warren
Baker, Wesley Vandivier and Will
lam Friesner. When the news
reached La Junta Sunday morning
that the boys would reach this city
on No. 8 and depart south on No. /,
giving them layover at the depot
OF three hours, an effort was at
once inaugurated to give them a
fitting and appropriate send-oti
Announcement were made from
the various pulpits that donations
of the good things OF life would be
received during the day at the Bon
Ton restaurant, and about $50 was
raised by subscription and expend-
ed for fruits. When the boys ar
rived on No. 8 they were greeted
by large crowd at the depot, and
stacks and stacks OF good things
awaited their pleasure on the plat
form The boys had been well
treated as regards the inner man
by the ladies OF Pueblo before leav-
ing and the donations were stored
in their commissary car TO be drawn
on as they proceeded on their long
journey westward.
The long wait a, the depot was
hilariously spent by few, and the
arrival OF No. l was the signal for
grand outburst OF enthusiasm. A
bonfire was built, the local militia
company fired several volleys,
helped out by cannon fire crackers
and numerous lusty yells, and the
sleeping passengers of No. awak-
ened to find themselves in the
midst of pandemonium.
The La unta boys among the
soldiers wish to tender their sim
cere thanks to the people OF La
Iunta for their kind remembrance
and reception, and the substantial
donations for the inner man. The
kind sentiments expressed and good
wishes bestowed will do much to
