writes Lydia X. Commander In the
November Delineator.
This search revealed to me there
was famine of babies in the we'll

In twenty-five apartment houses
that had visited, there were four
hundred and eighty-fve families; yet
the children numbered just fifty-four
lone child to every nine families.
In. twenty-five houses, in one little
section OF our city. had found four
hundred and thirty-one OF America s
childless homes. 1t was not hard to
believe that the whole great country
held two million more.
A short time ago an investigation
OF a part OF Fifth Avenue. New York
City. showed one stretch of fifteen
blocks where just fifteen children
ltved-One child to block, in the
richest section of the richest city in
the country. On another affluent av-
enue,. forty out OF forty-fve homes
were childless; and the remaining five
had only ten children among them.

towering houses and hotels, so re-
stricted. are multiplying rapidly; and
almost before the plaster is dry. or
the elevators are running they are
hiled. And still the chlldless couples
come.
Have you any children or dogs?"
Such is the brutal question that too
oftenr meets the home seeker who
ventures into the downtown region

tied TO the tenements of poverty on

LIABILITY ACT
U. s. Supreme Court Recon
venes For Consideration of
Several Important Cases.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, D. c., April 8.-The
United States supreme court recon-
vened today after two weeks recess.
Several cases of more than ordinary
Importance are on the calendar for
early hearing. Among the number is
the case OF the United States against
Heinzen e Co., involving the tariff on
articles imported into the Philippine
islands from the United States be-
tween April, 1899. and November,
1901. This is the last of the Philippine
test cases.
"A case of more general interest and
importance IL that of Damselle How
ard against the Illinois Central rail-
road, involving the constitutionality
Of the railroad employers liability act
passed at the last session of congress.
This case was tried by the United
States circuit court for the western
district of Tennessee, which held the
first section of the act, abolishing the
fellow servant rule, to be unconstitu-
tional.
The case is considered to be of great
Importance, not only because of the
number of similar cases that have
arisen and will arise, but of the prin-
ciple involved. When the United
States district court held the act in
valid because of its unconstitutional
ty President Roosevelt at once took
up the matter and decided to take the
question to the highest court with a
view Of having the decision reversed.
Only once before, 1t is said, in the his
tory of the department of justice has
similar action been taken by the adj
ministratOn.

LEWIS FARM IS SOLO
800 Acre Farm in the Linelight Dur.
ing the Trial OF Embezzler
Lewis Transferred.

The transfer of the 500 acre farm
near Nohall. known as the Lewis
farm, was completed last week. The
transfer took place between S. H.
Sleeper of Sherwood and 8. S. Robin
son of Metamora. Ill.
The consideration in the transfer
was $40,800 for the real estate, $51
per acre, 5000 for the residence,
$4,000 for large barn. and $4,000
for the grain elevator. The buildings
If divided among the five quarters OF
land would give to each about $4,000.
The Lewis farm was formerly own
ed by c. A. Lewis OF Grand Forks,
now serving term of three and one
half years in the penitentiary for EN-
bezzlement from Grand Forks
wholesale house. The amount of his
larceny was in the neighborhood of
$4,000, the money being spent on the
farm. Mr.. Lewis. during his trial,
gave deed to the land to the firm
whose funds he fraudulently appro-
priated. this accounting in part for
his easy sentence.
