LITTLE LOST BOY SENT
HOME TO HIS MOTHER
She Abandoned Him in Paris
About a Month Ago, and His
Case Excited Much Interest.
OF WELL-TO-DO FAMILY

PARIS May u.-After nearly month or
constant effort on the part of the Metro
politan police the French Foreign Office
and the British consul general in Paris, the
mystery surrounding the little boy who was
found playing In the Church OF the Made
line. several weeks ago, has been cleared,
and the boy, who in the meantime has been
cared for In the British hospital here, has
heen sent to his mother at London. Who
he is and who his parents are the authori-
ties will not say.
The boy is about three years old, and
does everything well for his age. except
Percy when found, and on being taken to
the British hospital his vocabulary was
found to consist of hardly more than a
dozen words. He had been recognized as
lish shilling clasped tightly in his hand
when he was found playing about the
church. Since then he has been the pet OF
the officials and nurses OF the British hos
pital. and his education has advanced rap
idly.
His mother is an Englishwoman, living in
London, but beyond this no information is
given out. Nothing is stated, ether. as to
her reasons for abandoning the child. IL
is known that her people are wealthy. and
that the boy. whom many well-to-do fam
lilies. both English and French, have Of
fered to adopt will be well cared for.
LONDON, May 1.-THE little English boy
who was found few weeks ago playing
In the Church Of the Madeline at Paris
and since has been cared for at the British
hospital in that city, has arrived in Lon
don. and-is again with his mother. The
woman and her husband separated about q
year ago. The husband is said not to be in
England. The mother took the boy,
April IL, and abandoned him in the church
about a week later.

L0ubet's Recent Visit to Rome Revleaved
by a Notable Paris Coyyesbondent

according to the wish of the Roman peo-
pie. to take possession of the capital of
Italy. This inscription being in Italian,
the King translated it. Before they sat
down to "a family dinner" TO which the
members of the household who had come
with the King and Queen to Paris had
been invited. the two little princesses were
brought in to receive the toys the Presi-
dent brought them. He took them on his
knees and had some conversation with
them. and they kissed him affectionately in
bidding him good night.
The aristocracy of Rome and the other
great cities appeared at hours when NJ.
Loubet was expected to appear. Mime. Ris-
tori, the actress, stood on a first-fioor bal
cony in a richly adorned house, and the
Princess Massimo. daughter of Don Carlos,
in another balcony next door. The land
ocracy suffered so terribly from the rancor
of France as manifested in prohibitive
French tariff on wines, olive oil and Italian
edibles, that it was glad to see the head of
republican France coming to Rome on a
friendly mission.
The taxes required to keep up big army
have weighed severely on them. We can,
therefore, believe that though they dislike
republicanism they felt glad to welcome
Loubet, and that the aristocratic world had
a genial aspect at the opera house perform
ance in compliment to him.

WHAT Do YOU
THINK OF THIS?

The Milks' Emulsion Company, OF Terre
Eaute, Ind, are out with an offer to
cure the worst case OF Stomach trouble
or Constipation in existence. or money re-
funded. and to start you off they agree to
buy the first bottle for you. from your drug
gist and present 1t to you free OF charge.
All you have 10 do is TO write and ask
them for an order on your druggist for a
free bottle. giving your name. address and
particulars of your case.
This looks TO US like pretty good prop
osition. The fact that all druggists hand
ling Milks Emulsion are requested to
guarantee every bottle they SELL is a sure
indication OF merit Otherwise the Milks'
Emulsion Company would soon so out OF
business. and we notice they have come to
the front very fast since placing MiIks'
Emulsion on the market one year ago.

Judge feathers, of the Superior Court,

to the complaint for damages filed some
time ago by Moore & Arthur against the
Big Four Railway Company.

company stand good for the loss Of about
two thousand sandwiches and a large
amount of lemonade and other refresh
ments which were being served by Moore
& Arthur, a catering firm, on an outing
that was being given for the employees OF
the Big Four Company. The firm, which

IRRIGATION LOOKS UP,

Meeting Of the Executive Committee
Of the State Association Held at
Grand Forks.
The executive committee of the
state irrigation association met Tues
day at Grand Forks according to call
of President Williams, discussed the
work to be done in this state and ad-
journed subject to further call. Irriga-
ton reports and literature on the sub.
]ect are being collected to be filed for
reference and future use at the Office
OF the state engineer at Bismarcsk: it
is intended to make this, so to speak. a
bureau of information concerning irri-
CATION matters for this state. Meas
urements are already being made by
the U. S. geological survey, at many
points here, of the flow of streams
from which water is or may be taken
for beneficial purposes.
The results of all such work will he
collected at the state capitol, other
facts pertaining to the subject will be
obtained, and, in all these sections of
the state where the advantages of irri-
cation might be sufficient, if properly
managed to repay the cost of irrigation
work, it is intended SO far as time
and means permit to make rapid sur.
veys or examinations for the purpose
of ascertaining the location and extent
OF the lands best suited for irrigation
and the most suitable locations for res
ervolrs and other works for utilizing
the water of the state.
If all the information obtainable is
thus brought together. the develop
ment of the state along this line should
be encouraged and opportunities more
readily found for the advantageous in
vestment Of capital in the state, both
by the federal government under the
reclamation act in extensive irrigation
works, and by individuals in smaller
projects.
The benefits of irrigation in any tenn
perate climate are unquestioned, al
though it is often necessary to investi-
gate carefully the comparative bene-
, fits and expenditures involved. But
; little work has yet been done in this
region toward a definite solution of
the various problems, nor toward the
, securing of definite knowledge regard.
ing the possibilities of the state in
this direction, and it is hoped that
there may be great progress in the
next few years.
