FAMOUS LITTLE BABY MAY
INHERIT A BIG FORTUNE
RAISED IN INCUBATOR AT THE
WORLDS FAIR
Victor Hugo's Masterpiece stirs the
Mothers Conscience and She Seeks
to Gain Possession of the Infant
From Its Foster Parents
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LAWRENCE, l<as., Oct. 2S.-The IL
linois foster-parents of little Emily
Darwin, the world-famous incubator
baby of the worlds fair Pike won a
point today in their fight to make the
infant heiress to third of million
dollars.
Justice Smart overruled the motion
of Mrs. Charlotte Bleakley who now
has the child, for the dismissal of the
habeas corpus suit filed by James c..
Barclay, of Moline, Ill. The claim of
the Barclays, who say that little Emily,
or Thelma Barclay, as they call her,
is the daughter of one Edith Stanley,
will now be heard on it's merits.
Into the evidence, which will be
heard in the Lawrence court next
month, will enter the strange story of
a scientific marvel, by which a baby
transformed into a beutiful child; Of
the substitution of a dead infant for a
living one whose mother mourned her
as dead; of the mothers discovery,
and of her fear aroused by reading
Victor Hugos Les Miserahles'' that
the little one was suffering the fate of
Cosette, and of the riches which her
claimants WISH TO DeSlOW OH Ine Ddpy.
Mrs. Bleakley obtained the child
through a suit decided in the Rock
Island, ILL.,, circuit court, where Judge
Emery c. Graves declared her to be
the mother of the child named as
Edith Bleakley.
She says that her determination to
recover her child, then living with the
Barclays in Moline, came while she
read in Lies Miserables" of the fate OF
child brought up by others than its
parents.
That night she packed and set out
for ST. Louis. She hunted up physi-
clans and nurses who had been at the
incubator, and learned enough to
make her sure that the child to whom
she had formally renounced her claim
was, indeed, her child.
Her effort to recover the baby began
as soon as she found the Barclays.
Mrs. Bleakley had been told her
child, whom she had sent to the in
oubator, was dead, and had paid, she
said, SIS for it's burial expenses.
If the baby be held by her foster
parents she will inherit a third of a
million dollars.

dow about o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Believing that it was merely the
rattling of the wagons on the street
she dismissed the notion from her mind
and went to sleep. One of the sheets
was found on the ground. From this
it is evident that they had separated
before the woman reached the ground
and that she must have fallen a dis
tance of twelve feet. She fell into a
bed of geraniums and demolished
number of the plants.
Mrs. Stewart described the woman
as being about go years of age, weigh
ing about $50 pounds, and in height
about 8 feet inches. When she called
at the formers residence, she was
dressed in a neat fitting white suit and
wore the black hat which was found
in the yard. 1t bore Hamburger's tag
and had apparently been purchased
recently.

ONLY A SUGGESTION
But It Has Proven of Interest and
Value to Thousands.

Common sense would suggest that IL
one wishes to become fieshy and plump
it can only result from the food we eat
and digest and the food should be al
luminous or flesh-forming food, like
eggs, beefsteak, and cereals; in other
words, the kinds of food that make flesh
are the foods which form the greater
part of our daily bills of fare.
But the trouble is that while we eat
enough and generally too much, the
stomach, from abuse and overwork,
does not properly digest and assimilate
it, which is the reason so many people
remain thin and under weight; the di-
gestive organs do not completely digest
the f1esh-forming beefsteak, eggs ana
similar wholesome food.
There are thousands Of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics. although
they may have no particular pain or
inconveniences from their stomachs.
If such persons would lay their preju-
dices aside and make regular practice
of taking after each meal one or two OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the food
would be quickly and thoroughly di-
gested, because these tablets contain
the natural peptones and diastase which
every weak stomach lacks, and by sup
plying this want the stomach is soon
enabled to reach its natural tone and
vigor
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest
every kind of flesh-forming food, meat,
eggs, bread and potatoes, and this Is the
reason they so quickly build up,
strengthen and invigorate thin, dys-
peptic men. women and children.
InValids and children, even the most
delicate, use them with marked benefit
as they contain no strong, irritating
drugs, no cathartic nor any harmful
ingredients.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
most successful and most widely known
of any remedy for stomach troubles be-
cause they are the most reasonable and
scientific of modern medicines.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by every druggist in the United States
and Canada, as well as Great Britain,
at so cents for complete treatment.
Nothing further Is required to cure
any stomach trouble or to make thin.

SUGGEST ROBBERY
As WOMAN s PLAN
MYSTERY IN WEARER OF w.
C. T. U. BADGE
She Ties Bed Sheets Together, Climbs
From Room in the Night and
Then Disappears-PoIice
Have Theory

An unidentified woman, who said
her home was in Pasadena, and who
wore q w. G. r. u, badge, mysterious
ly disappeared from the residence of
Mrs. j. S. Graham at S2S South Olive
street yesterday morning, by dropping
to the ground from a seCond-story Win
dow with the assistance of two bed
sheets tied to a shutter
From her actions the police believe
the woman is a professional thief VINO
feared that the police were after her,
and sought this mode of escape. The
opinion of the police is based upon the
fact that she carried a suggestively
heavy grip and that careful investiga-
ton by the officials of the w. c. T. U.
revealed that she was not connected
with that order. The only clue The
woman left behind her was a hat, from
which she had removed the trim
mings.
About o'clock Friday afternoon she
called at the residence of Mrs. f. w.
Stewart, S34 South Olive street, and
asked for lodgings. On the grounds Of
her own statement, that she was from
Pasadena, she was refused. Mrs.
Stewart informed her that she be-
lieved the preference should be given
to those who had come to attend the
convention from more distant points
than Pasadena, but, because she was
a w. G. L. T., would provide her with
rooms at Mrs. Graham's residence.
Subsequently she secured a room for
the woman at that place.
During the Woman's conversation
with Mrs. Stewart, she was very
nervous and gave evidence that some-
thing was on her mind. She said that
she had some friends living in this
city. Mrs. Stewart volunteered to call
them up by phone. The woman became
very excited and said that she posi-
lively would not let her do that, pre-
ferring that it should be done the fol-
lowing morning. From her CONVERSE
tion 1t was clear also that she had at
tended the afternoon session of the
w. C. II. u. BY the w. c. T. u. Of
ficials and the police it is believed that
she stole the card which she presented
to Mrs. Stewart and later demanded to
be returned to her, while at this meet
ing.
The woman carried an unusually
heavy telescope Valise. When shown
her room at Mrs. Graham's residence,
Mrs. Stewart remarked upon the
weight of it. The woman only smiled
and glanced suspiciously at Mrs. Stew
art and indicated that she would like
to be left alone as soon as possible
Consequently Mrs. Stewart made her
departure.
In making her escape from the house
the woman tied two bed sheets together
and tied knots about eight inches apart
all the way down. This improvised
rope was attached to the shutters of
the room which she occupied. Mrs.
Graham claims that she heard an un-
usual noise on the shutters Of her vim

GERMANY FEARS NOT
ALLIANCES OF NATIONS
WANTS WORLD TO KNOW SHE
FEELS INDEPENDENT
kaiser's Utterances Interpreted by
Diplomats to Mean That Hereafter
She Will Be Entirely Indifferent to
Any Combination Against Her
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
BERLIN, Oct. 2S-The German gov
ernment is seemingly giving other gov
ernments to understand that Germany
is strong enough to maintain and ex-
tend her position independently of
other powers, and therefore cordial un-
derstandings against her or her alli-
ances are not the primary concerns of
Germany's policy. Emperor Williams
speeches are so interpreted by the dip
lomats here and today the Cologne Ga
zette, even regarded as giving what the
government desires should be accepted
as the view of the day, says:
"Our ardent endeaVors to convince
the world of our readiness for peace
have failed. Let us in future trouble
ourselves less over ISLANDERS, looking
neither to the right nor to the left of
us, but go straight ahead, for our aim
is to strengthen our economical and
political equipments and with them the
self trust that we alone or in company
of friends, who are honorable friends,
need not fear the whole world in arms"
These stirring sentences have been
telegraphed throughout Germany for
reproduction in other newspapers. The
Grenzboten, a high-class weekly re-
view of Leipsic, says in a department
of that periodical, said to be written
by one of the foreign Office that Prince
Buelow, before exerting German influ-
ence before M. Delcasse, the former
minister of finance, was determined
to accept whatever consequences might
follow, even war, because M. Delcasse's S
remaining in power meant that Chau-
vinism had obtained the upper hand
in French policy.
Precisely what has happened to lead
to the emperor's speeches, and these
and other declarations naturally are
not subjects for authoritative explana-
ton, but they are probably due to Rus
sia's resistance to certain German pro-
posals.

COUNTED
Civic Alliance of Second Ward De-
nounces Mayors Veto of City
Hall Project-Plan a
Mass Meeting

Through a growing sentiment in the
Sixth ward in favor of the free city
hall site, which the mayor vetoed Fri
day evening, Councilman HOughtOn
will be forced to vote to pass the meas
ure over the mayors veto, was a fact
which was brought out at a meeting
of the civic alliance held last evening,
through statements made by Joseph
Mesmer With this vote the seven ne
cessary to pass it over the veto will be
secured.
Houghton stated that the Sixth ward
club had instructed him to vote against
the measure, and as this club is a rep
resentatiVe body of his constituents,
he felt called upon to obey it's mandate.
But Doc" Houghton is about to see
great white light according to state
ments of Joseph Mesmer made at the
same meeting. This light will be as
cloud by day and a pillar of fire by
night, and guide him from darkest
Egypt into the bright land of Canaan.
The voter of the Sixth ward will
change their minds according to Mr..
Mesmer, and a petition from voters of
that ward so numerously signed that
its councilman must recognize it will
be presented. This petition already
is being circulated and a week from
Monday when the proposition will
probably come up for final action, it
Will ne Ieduy 1Ol consideration OF the
council.
Need Houghton's Vote
All this fuss is being made over
Houghton for only. one reason. There
are six votes in the council wherewith
to pass the measure over the veto of
Mayor MCAleer, but seven votes are
needed. Hitler feels that he cannot
vote for the proposition as it would
take the city hall out of his ward.
Smith has been the leader of the mi
nority, and can't afford to give up,
as he believes. Houghton's vote is
needed.
The civic alliance, which is an organ
ization of the Second ward, composed
of three delegates from each of the
seven improvement associations in the
ward, held meeting last night at
Temperance temple to express indigna-
tion at the action of the mayor in We
tolng the ordinance accepting the free
site.

Councilmen Arrive

At this point in the proceedings
Councilmen Harmon and Houghton
entered the hall. The report had been
circulated among the members of the
alliance that the Sixth ward was to
hold a mass meeting for the purpose
of instructing HOughton to vote to pass
the measure over the mayors veto and
the presence of the councilman from
the Sixth led the members to believe
that he had been so instructed and
that the seventh vote had thus been Sc
cured. For once in his life Houghton
received an ovation, but the smiles
changed to frowns and things might
have happened if the members of the
alliance had not been gentlemen when
Houghton explained that he wasn't
going to do any such thing.
But he is," announced Mr.. Mes
mer. 81 feel confident that we will get
that seventh vote and that vote will
come from the Sixth ward. Petitions
now are being circulated and already

ton learns the real sentiment of his
