He was simply the Iron Mountain Baby.
cast from a swiftly moving train. by soma
unknown person. Notwithstanding his OBJ
scure identity. the little fellow has laughed
and cooed his way into the affections OF
the Helms family until even the thought OF
losing him causes many a pans.
The whole trouble lies IN the fact that III
Gle William Moses Gould needs a quantity
of milk and other necessities 10 make him a
strong and happy baby. Mr. Helms would
gladly furnish all that ths little fellow
needs, and lu5uries besides. were he man
caally able.
Mix however. IS the principal stumbling
block at present. A COW costs SO. and this
amount is beyond the means OF Mr.. He'ms.
Unless the money Is contributed the child

the woman: Age. - years: weight. 40 or
10 pounds; height. 5 feet . or q inches:
hair. very light; complexion. very fair;
German descent. fun face. rcd cheeks. heavy
build and blue eyes.
The letter concluded by stating that the
woman IS Of wealthy parents, Is a resident
OF 81. Louis and + related TO many prom
ineat persons OF that city.
AZ nothing further has been heard from
Pndgett or any one connected with the de-
tectiye agency, where he said he was am
plOsed. Mr. Helms has placed little belief
in its alleged disclosures.
The matter OF naming the Iron Mountain
baby has been ~aEitating the community OF
Irondaie for several weeks. Thousands Of
names have been suggested
From the hrst Mr.. Helms has been deter
mined that the baby should have his Chris
tlan name. so the little fellow was informal
~ baptized William several weeks ago.
The question OF a middle name vas then
taken under consideration. Prom the many
proposed Moses was finally selected as the
most appropriate. The telescope was Xix
ened 10 the basket OF Biblical lore. The
railroad cut correspOuded TO the bulirushes.
While the selection % a Christian and a
middle name was ~vexatiouS II was as moth
ing 70 the storm that arose when the selec-
ton OF a final cognomen came 20 be con
sidered- Thousands OF names were advo-
Gated.
NAMED AFTER FAMILY
THAT OWNS THE RAILROADS
Mr.. Helms eventually put an end TO the
matter BY naming the baby William Moses
Gould. As he naively puts u: The railroad
people brought him. so the least they can
DO IS to furnish a name" This view OF the
matter met with general approval and the
Iron Mountain baby's name viii. IN all
probability. remain William Moses Gould.
The home life OF little William Moses
Gould is all that any baby could desire.
Mr. and Mrs. Helms have grown TO look on
the little fellow as their own. while their
daughter Anna fairly adores him.
LATHE Miss Helms IS the declared cham
pfon Of William Moses Gould. and it Is upon
her youthful shoulders the greater part OF
the burden OF his care falls. II IS a well
come duty. however. and the little girl Is
never as happy as when performing some
service for the baby.
