Important Amendment.

1t is stated that a very important amend
ment to the militia law, popularity known
as the ''Dick bll,'' will be presented during
this session of Congress. The act now
provides for an annual appropriation of
81 Oo0. 000 for the use of the national guard
of the various states and territories, and
under 1T the efficiency Of the national
guard has been greatly increased. 1t Is
now proposed to add 81 100000 to the ap-
preparation, of which a part will be avail
able for the acquiring of sites for rife
ranges the promotion of rifle practice and
the construction, maintenance and equip
ment of shooting galleries and suitable tar
get ranges. The new bill will also allow IN
states TO purchase army ordnance stores,
quartermaster stores and camp eQuipage
from the War Department at the prices
listed for the regular troops. The Secre-
tary of War is authorized to relieve the
states of unserviceable clothing on proper
report from the inspecting officer instead of
from board of survey, and he may direct
that such clothing be destroyed, and the
states relieved of accountability for It, The
bill will also make suitable provision for
the hiring and foraging of horses and
draft animals for the of troops and
quartermasters-

John ]. Griffin, dean of the faculty of phil

among friends of the university that E. L..
Scharf of this city is an instructor of that
institution, and that his public utterances
on ecclesiastical political and scientific
matters, in some degree, represent and are
Endorsed by the university and its pro-
fessors.
, The card was brought out principally by
statements made in connection with the re-
cent discussion of the use of government
appropriations for sectarian Indian schools
Mr.. Scharf, it is announced, never has been

A complaint has been entered with the

the Northern Pacific Railroad, the Yellow
stone National Park Transportation Com

preferential rates, for the same service, of
as much as $3.50 a passenger in favor of
the defendants hotel and transportation
companies and against other competitors
doing business in the park, and a large
number of people who care to tour the park

To Obtain 500 Exemption.

The board of general customs appraisers
at New York have decided, in effect, that
failure on the part of a passenger, re-
turning resident of the United States, to
comply with the regulations of the Secre-
tary of the Treasury requiring a detailed
declaration by the passenger of the arti-
cles purchased abroad, their value, ETC., is
fatal to a claim for the exemption of 800
provided for by paragraph 697 = the tariff
act Of 1897. This ruling is the logical con-
clusion from number OF decisions Of the
courts on the subject, but it has never
before been definitely stated by the depart
ment.

Child Placed With a Nurse.

The policeman heard the story and had
a niece of Mrs. Dye go with him to the
house of a nurse in the employ of the
board of children's guardians. The nurse
took charge of the infant and is caring
for her.
The woman who represented herself as
the mother of the child said the latter was
two weeks old. Mrs. Dye feels satisfied
that she is not yet one month old The
stranger was at the house for SO short a
time that Mrs. Dye neglected to ask her
name or where she was from.
To Star reporter Mrs. Dye said she
thought the mother of the child was about
forty years old She was dressed in black,
and wore long coat and brown waist.
Policeman Newkirk was also given de-
scription of her. He reported the affair to
the board of children's guardians and at
police headquarters. After the note was
found in the room inquiries were made
about the city this morning in an endeavor
to locate the woman, but no trace of her
was found

Contents of Note.

Before going, however, she wrote the
note that was found in the bed this morn
ing. The note reads:
My Dear Good Lady: 1 am married, but
a heart broken mother"
After charging her husband with infidel-
ity, she states:
Just as soon as / was able to go out L
left with my dear little girl. l have lit
tie boy, and it is all that l can do to make
q living for him. This is heart broken
Please try and adopt baby or send her to
an Institution. You will hear from me
again.
Name her Madeline after me. Fix bot
tie for her. Five cents for milk. l am
afraid this will drive me to suicide
In the bed with the note was a nursing
bottle and a nickel. AS the note was not
found until this morning Mrs. Dye did
not make any particular haste in the mat
ter of summoning the police. She thought
her roomer was stranger in the city, and
that she might have been lost. Five hours
after her departure, however, she sus-
pected there was something wrong and
summoned Policeman NeWkirk.
