confined to babies and small children. who
are taken care of at the Model play-
grounds and day nursery at the EXPOSE
ton.
Children who remain on the play
grounds all day must be furnished with
some sort of food" said Mrs. Ruth Ash
ley Hirschfield. who is in charge of the
nursery, yesterday. IF they are given
anything to eat, ii must be wholesale
food. and I am making arrangements with
the management of a pure-food restaurant
to serve these lunches to the children at
cost"
More than 200 children were cared for at
the Model Fairgrounds Wednesday curing
the Liberty Bell Day celebration. All. of
the lost children taken to the police sta
ton and the jefferson Guard headquar-
tiers were turned over to the care of the
maids In charge of the Fairgrounds.
Negotiations are nov pending with the
Lazy Managers. who have announced
lost children during the Exposition period.
The suggestion that the board take Up
TINS work was made by Miss Helen Gould
during her last visit to St. Loui The
~ ou66CshiOh, dllu MISS
Gould and Mrs. Annie Mclean Moores
were instructed to act for the
appointed to take charge of this work.
One of the member of the board said
yesterday that the reason that final ar
engagements with Mrs. Hirschfield had not
been yet made was that a fee of 80 cents
a day for each child had been substituted
for the 25-cent charge originally planned.
TO MAKE DEFINITE
ARRANGEMENTS.
The committee from the Board of Lady
Managers still has the, matter under adj
visement. and some definite arrangement,
II is expected. will be made at the meet
Ing of the Rotating Committee next Mon
day morning.
Mrs. Hirschield. in speaking Of the
change in prices. said that II was still
the intention to charge but Is cents a day
for the care Of a child more than Q years
1t is intended, however, to charge
80 cents a day for the care of babies.
Babies are very much more trouble and
require considerable attention" said Mrs.
1T is necessary to have spe-
cial nurses for the babies. while the older
children can take care of themselves and
need no extra attention.
TT would never do to nave the babies
crying. and to avoid this they must be
given special attention"

IGoRRoTEs At CHURCH FESTIVAL.
Head Hunters in Demand to Assist
in Lifting Church Debt.

The Bontoc 1gorrotes are scheduled to
appear III a new role. one which will
greatly surprise their friends and may
be the means of getting them into bad
odor with their orthodox pagan brothers
now on the islands. They are to assist at
a strawberry festival in aid of a fund to
lift a debt from the church building Of
st. Charles Rorromeo Of ST. Charles, Mo.
Doctor Wilson yesterday received a
pressing request from o. J. Martin of st.
Charles in behalf of the church. to permit
the, savage ~head-hunters to come. in all
their native dresser undress-to the
CHURCH festival mex Tuesday evening. to
Jeat savory dog and dance and do the
other merry stunts for which the Igorrotes
are famed.
There is a debt of s., 500 on the church.
and the parish committee believes that
the ~Igorrotes can do what nobody else
has been able to do as veto lift II. The
church is willing to furnish baked dog
and to furnish a special car for the Igor
rates Journey to st. Charles and any
thing else in reason to get the popular
Savages.
Doctor Wilson did not give his consent
Immediately. but it is probable that the
matter will be left to the Igorrotes them
selves. and If they are willing to help the
good cause along they will be sent to the
strawberry festival.

Finding Spanish Guns.
Muskogee Democrat.


At Flat Rock. twenty miles west Of
some new land have discovered a lot
of fire arms and implements that bring
into mind again the story of the fifty
four Sraniards who lost their lives In
the Creek Nation while on their way
to New Orleans, from California. laden
with gold. 1t was in the year 1913
that these adventures left New Or
leans for the Northwest in search of
gold. They spent two or three years
and finally reached California, where
they struck 1t rich" So much gold
did they find that they made saddle
bags out of the hides of elk necks and
six mules were loaded with these pre-
cious burdens. the reward of three
four adventurous spirits. When they
reached the northwest line of what is
now Indian Territory. they were at
tackled by a band of Shawnees. but the
Indians were driven off. They follow
ed the Spaniards however. and adgS:tk
headed them towards Flat Rock. where
they must cross the Canadian. Near
this place was the headquarters of the
Cheyennes and a courier was sent to
notify the Indians. At Flat Rock the
Indians. in great numbers. fell upon the
Spaniards. When the fight first started
the gold was secreted in the cliffs of
the Canadian Every Spaniard was
killed save two. who fioated down the
of Indians. These old guns are those
of the Spaniards. They are eagerly
sought as curios. They are of the old
blunderbuss type. The land where they
were found was formerly owned by

The New Haven Leader. a Republi-
can organ. warns its party friends that
they are making a mistake IL they look
on Connecticut as "a picnic ground"
for the Republicans this year. and as
sures them that they have a hard
night before them. The Leader is
dead right about 1t. for there Is no
good reason why the State should not
be Democratic this year. Tilden and
Cleveland carried the State in four
elections. and Parker ought to do the
same. The great blunder which de-
feated the Democrats in the last two
campaigns is not weighing the party
down in this one, and there is no rea-
son why Democrats should not both
deserve and secure success. 1t will re-
auire good work, but that is the way
to achieve great triumphs.
