PROBE FOR HOME
Grand Jury in Logan County Said
to be investigating Lincoln
Institution
FEEBLE MINDED CHILDREN
Gov. Deneen Has Made Private Inqui-
ries and is Satisfied Charges Are
Unfounded.

Springfield, H.. Jan. lit is an
| nounced that the grand jury of Logan
county will take up the alleged irregu-
laritieS in the state home for feeble
minded children at Lincoln, based on
accusations made during factional
rows among the republicans of Logan
county. Two cases, both of which have
been Investigated by the state authori-
ties and disposed of. are 10 be probed.
Hattie Kirkpatrick, d feeble minded
girl, in November, 1902, charged r. l..
F'risbie. assistant superintendent of the
home, with wronging her. She had
been attended by the superintendent,
assistant superintendent, and DR..
Brown, a Lincoln physician.
Girl Changes Her Accusation.
At the board of charities investiga-
tiont the girl exonerated Frisbie and
blamed another inmate. This resulted
in the dismissal of the charges, and
nothing more was heard of the matter
until it was brought up in the factional
fights.
The other case has To do with an
alleged misappropriation of Supt. C. B.
Taylor of $14S, received from the sale
of junk, bottles. and the like during
his term from the dump pile at the
home Taylor had not turned in the
money from these sales, saying he
thought the junk was useless and he
was entitled to dispose of it as he liked.
The board of charities held otherwise,
however, and he turned in the money.
Old soldier Informant.
These matters were brought to the
attention of Gov. Deneen by Seigle
Mohr an old soldier, formerly employ
ed at the home and recently discharg-
ed. He declared that unless he was re-
instated he would make exposures and
Deneen told him to go ahead. At the
same time he notified the officers at
the home they would be expected to
make good or lose their places.
They have assured him there is moth
ing beyond the two cases cited, neither
of which the governor regards as call
ing for further action on his part. He
is satisfied the finding given in the
Frisbie case was just and that the con-
troversy over the junk sales having
been settled, and there being nothing
to indicate any improper motives on
the part of Taylor, he is not justified in
removing him.
Governor Has Been Busy.
The governor has been conducting a
private investigation at the home and
he has found nothing aside from the
cases mentioned

ELEMENTS OF FIELDS
SUCCESS.

Mr. Field. i'm a. letter to DIR. Hills,
some years ago gave his ideas on
what were the essential qualities I'm
n young man who could hope for a

cepts laid down are follows:
Consider carefully your natural
bent, whether for business or a pro-
fessiOn.
Take stock of yOuresIf and try to
determine what business you are
best fitted for.
Having started, learn your busi-
ness thoroughly from the ground up.
Work with all your energy and
do everything well You can.
not merely well enough tn pass mus
ter.
Try always To he ahead of your
position and increase your efficiency.
Beware of n misfit occupation.
Practice always economy, seIf-re-
strainf, and seIf-deniaI.
Always remember that what you
save and not what you earn counts.

lHe EepuDiiCdH llSUFSeHI IOTCeS WHICH
set out boldly a week age 70 thwart
the carrying out of some of the party
policies most strongly urged by the
administration.
Insurgents Conservative.
Fifty-six republicans were mustered
against the bill on its passage and II
democrats voted with them. Beet
sugar and tobacco voiced their disap-
proval of a reduction of the Dingley
duties on the cane and weed products
of the American possessions in the
orient, but the enthusiasm of the in
surgents did not carry them far enough
to join the democrats in tacking onto
the bill amendments which would have
insured its death at the hands of the
senate. This indicated to the party
leaders under Speaker Cannon the
smashing of the tentative compact
through which the statehood bill was
to be killed.
LOrimer's Deep Water BILL
Congressman Lorimer reintroduced
his bill providing for 14-foot channel
from the great lakes to the Mississippi
the work. Mr. Lorimer also introduc-
ed the pure food bill prepared by DIR.
Eaton, of the Illinois state board of
health, and indorsed by the state
boards of other states. 1t provides for
the marking of all adulterated foods
and drugs. and subjects food products,
wherever made, to the operations of
the respective state laws in every COM
monwealth where they are placed on
sale.

for the senator from Maine he would
listen to Hale's reprimand without los
ing his temper.
Referred to Morris Incident.
The criticism which Tillman was
making related to the ejectment of
Mrs. Minor Morris from the White
House, which he said was the most
pitiful example of anything that has
ever been associated with the presi-
dent.
