a neighbor who has caused me trouble
for years One morning i say to my
family / am going across the way and
settle that trouble, and my family
says, Co I settle the disturbance, but
when l come back ! have little baby
in my arms. 1 wish had never seen IT,
Il call my family around me and
say there will be no further trouble.
but what am TO do with this baby2
Their opinions differ To keep and
educate him seems the only thing to
do and when he is grown we can Keep
him or start him for himself as seems
best 1t will cost US something, but the
good God has not given US all this for
ourselves alone. 1t will be a wonderful
advantage for him and / say. All
right, and the first time I take him
he begins 10 yell and kick and squall
and bite. Spank spank. spank
The little fellow is well satisfied
now. The other day when I recalled
his nurse, Judge Taft. he looked up
and cried 1 don't know what the little
boy is going 20 do. / dare not write a
prediction and sign it. but I know you
boys; | know that as long as the Amer
lean people have red corpuscles In
their blood. so long as they love equity,
justice and liberty. so long will they
help the Filipinos."

OAKLAND May 30.-The Oakland
police are trying to solve the mystery

street this morning. From papers found
in his pockets. the body is supposed to
be that of Eugene Mccarthy. a dis
charged private from Troop l. Fourth
United States Cavalry.
There was a deep cash in the back
of the dead mans neck and several
wounds on his scalp. which indicated
that he might have met with foul play
In his pocket was found police rec
showing thai W. +. Crosby. had en-
gagged in a fight on Broadway Sunday

fact that, although the body had evi-
IDENTIFY been in the water many DAYS

in the pockets the police record written
only last Monday. They are now try
