Chicago, April Is. Chieago's police d
department has contributed thousands n
of dollars to the campaign fund in the
recent mayoralty campaign and have
contributed in like manner, to
whichever party was in power as long
as the older officers on the force can
remember, according to the reveal
tons made today before the civil serv-
ice commission, by police officials.
Among the officers who offered this
testimony to the inquisitorial body
were Inspectors Revere and Kelly;
Capt. McWeeney and Lieut.. Jenkin.
Capt McWeeney, who several days
ago refused to talk on the subject, con-
fessed freely today that he had aided
in the collection of large amounts of
money to be used in the recent city
election campaign.
| According to the civil service COM
mission. every man who engaged in
the collection of funds, even the
patro1men who contributed, is made
liable to Indictment by the grand jury
under the provisions of the civil serv-
| ice act.
Part of section in the act provides
that any person disregarding any Of
the provisions of the law shall be
fined not less than 81 600, and may be

The commission has signified no in
tention to sift the matter to the bot
tom, but it is said will not prosecute
under-oficials who, it is asserted. car
| ried out the commands of Chief of
Police Collins. Capt. McWeeney said
that when he was commanded to sub
scribe to the fund, he was provided
with as many blank envelopes as

| which money was to be put.
Il was instructed to deliver all such
money to the Inspector said he, land

At the conclusion of Capt Nc

The two former officials responded at
| once, but the latter could not be found
and will be supoened to appear before
the commission tomorrow morning.
On hearing from the commission
| that their subordinates Jenkins and
| McWeeney had told complete stories
of assent for recent election, Revere
said that in all he collected about
$4,000 from officers and men under

tanned $4,000 fIom those under his
charge. Both said that no lists had
been kept of those who did not sub

| given those who contributed to the
| fund The two inspectors testified, as
did jenkins and McWeeney, that it
j had been the custom no matter what
party was in power to levy assess
ments upon the police stations. The
assessments were often made in fall
elections when no city candidates
were on the ticket. y

Mashed the Nfasher.

In the city OF Portland the masher
does not always secure his just de-
serts in the shape of a well-directei
and powerfully-sent blow on the jaw,
for as a rule he is usually escorted
before q magistrate by a well-mean-
ing police officer, but last night one
of the genus got his deserts on the
point mostly aimed at by prizefight-
ers and went to the stone pavement
for the count and then some.
The man who had this experience
last night is cruising around under
the name OF Frank Seals, and while
standing at the southeast corner OF
Fifth and Alder streets about Q
O'Clock. thought TO impress his
charms upon two women by openly
accosting them. Just what CONVEX
sation Seals had with the women
cannot be learned. but before the re-
marks were concluded he was seen
TO strike one of the women, at least
this is the story OF bystander.
Hardly had he landed the blow
when some one from nearby quietly
stepped to the side OF Mr.. Seals ami
one well-directed punch stretched
the gay Lothario on the stone side
walk. In falling, Seals head struck
the pavement violently and he be-
came unconscious. Patrolmen b. F.

reached the scene but the individual
who so slgnally came to the rescue
of the women, had departed, when

The Babies of Egypt.


There is no race suicide in Egypt
From Alexandria to Assuan the cour
try is filled with babies, round faced
and solemn expressioned little tykes
who look out upon the world with
great eyes that are painted with kola
making their tiny faces appear top
heavy, so large do they seem. AS
in all Oriental countries, children in
Egypt are welcomed. The more the
merrier. The wife is not even con-
sidered a true wife until she be-
comes a mother The estimation in
which she is held, not only by her
husband. but also by her friends
depends in a great degree, upon
her fruitfulness and upon the pres
ervation of her children; for, by
men and women. rich and poor, bar
renness is considered curse and a
reproach So high are babies es-
teemed in that strange country of
the Nile that in the days before slav-
| cry WIS dbOlibHtu 5ldNC WIZ OOh-
tributed a child to her masters
family circle and which he acknowl-
edged as his own thereby earned her
freedom according to the law. and
in the majority of instances she was
further honored by being taken as
her masters wife, or one of them,
and becoming entitled to the lux
uries of the harem. So frequently
do babies come, and so numerous
are their deaths, that the Egyptian
government has never been able to
procure a census that was at all sat
isfactory, and even the recent at
tempt made this year cannot be ac-
cepted as an official statement OF
the country's population. In Egypt
births and deaths are not recorded
except in the memories of those
Immediately concerned.
Three characteristics Of Egyptian |
babies impress themselves upon the |
tourist. The first is their beauty, +,
for, although many OF them are |
blind, or nearly so. from uncleanli-
ness and ophthalmla. they are all
round faced and exquisitely mod
eled, their features are classically
beautiful and their color is exactly
like bronze. Self-control is the next
most impressive feature about these
little folk, for II is a most unusual
thing to hear an Egyptian baby cry.
Noticeable also is these little folks
u would take a very
Indifferent person. indeed, to fail TO
notice the infant toilers in Egypt.
