unbalanced white man named. Anderson

Mountain Island, in the French broad

He had during all those years allowed no
one to visit the island. though he was mere
ly a "squatter-" He did odd jobs on the
mainland.
Last week a fisherman discovered Jhe-a
vas q woman on the island, the sides Of
which are steep and rocky. while il is dense
with trees. Collins was induced to 20 TO
Hot Springs village, and while he was ab-
sent the island was searched. The woman
was found and gave her name as Alice
Gunter and her home as Tennessee. Two
children, one Of three years. the other
three months, were discovered both naked.
They lived in a hut as rude as that of a
savage. She and the children have been
removed. There are alleged to be good

John s Dufie. OF SIS F Street northwest.
has written 10 the Commissioners COM
planning that the children OF the city are
not provided with sufficient room in which
20 play. matter which Mr.. Duffie thinks
is Of great importance.
Il notice" he says that the city has
provided for the comfort and convenience
Of animals, and that the animals of the
Zoo are kept with great care. l notice that
great plots of public land are reserved and
planted with flowers. etc, but there is no
provision made for the children. They are
absolutely kept in terror OF being arrested
at all times. There is no place for them
10 play. and if they throw a ball on the
street or laugh loud they are liable at any
time 10 be taken up and carried to the Po-
lice Court
This is a burning shame. There is al
ways in every neighborhood certain people
who think that the children should not be
allowed 10 laugh, and If there is the slight
est noise in the street they complain 20
the police. and the police seem 70 be weak
enough to listen TO these acoDplaipss- and
it is a fact in the neighborheOd where We
live that the children are afraid 10 go out
on the streets, and it is a fact that II they
congregate near any Of the corners 10 talk
the police drive them away.
Men have sports. Men throw balls,
they play baseball and race horses, and the
grown women play golf and other games,
but the children are not expected to
chirp. I repeat that this is a burning
shame TO the city.
Now. there should be provided in seY-
eral localities Fairgrounds for children
and there should be stationed at such play
ground some kind-hearted old gentleman
who knows how TO treat children and keep
them from hurting one another.
Il noticed in going through the Agricul-
tural grounds the other day that there were
acres and acres there going to waste that
might be utilized for this purpose, and
there are many other places in this city
where Fairgrounds could be provided"

not seen his client for some time and had
not been able to arrange for his defence.

also stated that the District Attorneys Of
fee was not ready 10 proceed with the
prosecution He said that when informed
by Mr. Baker that he had Withdrawn from
the case, he sent for Hollands bondsman,
PENDANT in court on the day SET for trial.
The bondsman replied that he was unable
to say whether he would or not, because
Holland had left the city without notifying
him Of his intention.
Under the circumstances Mr.. Taggart
stated that he did not see any likelihood
of the case being ready for trial SO he tel
egraphed several witnesses summoned
from Florida and other places not to ap-
pear until further notice was given them
Had these witnesses been permitted to
come 10 the city in expectation that Hol-
land would have been put on trial today.
