CONFLICTING STORIES.

As to the transaction In Salt Lake,
the woman said she saw woman with
two babies and offered to hold one OF
them. When the train time came, she
turned the baby over to a policeman
and that was all she knew about It,
The police here are confident that the
woman did not tell the truth. as the
stories told by her and by the man
who accompanied her here, are decid-
eddy conflicting. The pair will likely
be taken to Salt Lake this evening
This afternoon Officer Wood went to
the home OF the Berg girl at Waterloo
and found that her statement with ref
erence TO her II months old baby Ia
true. He also learned that the young
woman has been employed at one OF
the local hotels and that there Is little
or no reason to believe that she is the
mother OF the deserted infant II is
likely that Miss Berg and Barnes will
be released.

ilcer Wood--Suspccts Told Many

dren and she also had an infant in
her arms. This lady. who proved to be
Mrs. Nina Miginson Of Hatch, IDA,

walked out, saying that the mother

A short time before the train pulled
out the woman who gave the name OF
Bowring, took the strange infant a
moment, but suddenly left It and els
appeared.
Mrs Hlginson said she already had
a baby on her hands and did not feel
like caring for the little stranger, The

EAST TEMPLE STREET.

Wells again made strong appeal for
finding more appropriate and dlgni-
fed name for East Temple street than
the one proposed in the report OF the
committee which recommended that II
be called Main street, He thought that
the business men should be appealed to
In regard to the matter so that an ex-
preston could be obtained from them
on the subject. Every little town IN
the country, he declared, has Main
street. while the large cities as a gem
eral rule have some more dignlfied
name for their principal business
street. He suggested that the news.
papers work up an agitation In the
matter and he was sure that It would
result in a better and more appropriate
name being suggested for our principal
business street Upon the request OF
Wells and Barnes the report OF the
committee was laid over for one week
so that some other names might be
suggested.

thoroughbred in every way. writes
George Harvey in the North Ameri.
can Review.
The exercise to which much OF this
improvement is attributable may be
no more Jealous. but it seems to be
less spasmodic. more consistent and
better adapted to its true purpose.
AS an inevitable sequence, his habits
have become more regular, improving
in turn his manners.
Altogether he has become attractive,
partially in what he might resent
being called a sirlish sense. as the
effect of his greater delicacy, but
chiefly in purely masculine way,
since In point of reality he was never
before so manly or so scrupulous of
his personal honor.
His mother is the one chiefly re-
sponsible for this happy evolution.
Thirty years ago her prototype donned
cap and became frankly middle
aged at marriage. From that day the
principal feature of her personal APP.
pearance-her tigure-ceased to inter-
est her especially. and at forty she
was satisfactory to degree as a
mother. but utterly worthless as a
comrade and as helper. To-day at
forty-tive she is her daughters equal
IN appearance. and usually, we be-
lfeve. her superior in the possession Of
that mysterious indefinable, yet pc.
culiarly fascinating quality known as
charm" She has not only main.
tanned, but enhanced. her attractive.
ness by growing with, as we'll as for,
her children.
1t is this daily association from
babyhood with her to whom instinct
accords earliest reverence that has
refined the boy. TIL. rather may have
been no less congen' al as a comrade.
but circumstances lave minimized in
comparative sense his helpfulness
as a friend. Himself the product Of
generation less carefully trained,
and possessing the dissatisfaction of
personal success. he ia unable to per-
ceive the eesirabilits of change in
method tecding to broaden develop
ment. Hence his patronizing atti-
tude, his disposition to continue to
treat as child the son rapidly ap.
preaching manhood.
1t is the mother, prrsfsting in being
a girl, who is glad to be regarded and
treated by the boy as an intellectual
equal. To her, therefore, belongs the
credit Of Transformation which we
believe to be clearly perceivable, and
which BODIES the greatest good to this
vast American organism which soon
will require the fr.est mental and
moral fiber yet demanded by civiliza-

llcN Hendricks.

The Nor,hland singer, Mr.. Bon
Hendricks. in his play ole Olson"
is scoring great success wherever
II has been produced. II Is II play
that leaves pleasant flavor behind,
II flavor OF rustic romance and brave
deeds Of goodness and simplicity ris-
ing triumphant over frustrated VIII
lainy and Irritating misconceptions
in the third act. which is short and
sweet.
Mr.. Hendricks is an actor of the
type made familiar years ago by Joe
Emmett. He has Il voice of singular
pathos and power, and his singing
has the peculiar quality which sud-
denly clarifies the Imagination and
for the moment lifts the nearer quite
out OF himself. With all this. he is
an actor of uncommon grace and
spirit, has II fine presence and WIN
ming face and a Swedish accent that
is equal to any linguistic emergency.
He will sing six new songs during
the action of the play. Mr.. Gray has
surrounded Mr.. Hendricks with Il
very strong company. which will be
seen at the Metropolitan Friday
evening.
