letters from proud mothers all over
the United States began to pour In
upon him, inquiring for details Of the
proposed infantile beauty show. Since
then the deluge has continued and
Mr.. Stevens begins to wear a hunted
look.
"The trouble all arose from the
activity Of some "m%iscreant," whose
identity is unknown to the Exposition
management, as is the nature of his
graft" This individual has caused
it to become known to the mothers Of
the nation that a prize will be offered
by the Exposition management to the
best-formed 2-months-old baby to be
entered at the Worlds Fair. CON-
plete details of the plot are lacking,
but if the letters continue the whole
story will soon be pieced out from
their contents.
"The letters to MI. Stevens on the
subject are marvels OF the e~pistolary
art, such as only women could write.
They ask for every conceivable kind
of information, both revelant and ir-

HOW ABOUT THE BABIEs7

Is it possible that Lieutenant Gov
ernor Bartlett, manager of the st.
Louis exposition display from this
state, has unconsciously heaped a
liberal bunch of troubles on the head
OF the secretary of the st. Louis ex-
position? 1t will be recalled that
some time ago Governor Bartlett ad-
vertised for pictures Of babies from
North Dakota to form an exhibit from
North Dakota at the fair. The New
York Sun, that organ Of progress and
satire, took up the matter and COM
mended the lieutenant governor as q
far sighted individual, who was seek
ing to find favor with the mothers Of
the land. Possibly the Suns COM
ments have become so widespread and
SO misunderstood that they are re-
sponsible for the following conditions
which are related by the st. Louis
Globe Democrat:
Secretary Walter B. Stevens Of the
Worlds Fair performs his daily round
of duties at the Administration build
ing these days with an air Of troubled
preoccupation. He has hanging over
him the dread possibility that a de-
mand may be made upon him to as
sumo the role of Paris at a baby
beauty show and award the golden
apple to the comeliest 2-months-o oil
