The PRESIDENT SAID.
This is a memorable occasion for all
the peoples of the Western Hemisphere.
The building, the cornerstone OF which
we lay today, emphasizes by its exist
ence the growing sense of solidarity of
interest and aspiration among all the
peoples of the New World. 1t marks
our recognition of the need to knit ever
closer together all the republics of the
Western Hemisphere, through the kind
ly bonds of mutual justice, good will.
and sympathetic comprehension.
At the outset, Oh behalf of all Of us |
wish to thank Mr.. Carnegie for his gen
erous gift-a GIFT to all the nations Of
the New World, and therefore preenii-
nently fitting as coming from one who
has so sincerely striven for the cause
Of peace among nations; for while We
have yet long path to tread before we
can speak with any certainty of the
day when wars shall cease from the
earth, we of this Western Hemisphere,
by movements such as that symbolized
by this building, have taken great
strides towards securing permanent
peace among ourselves.
In the next place, as President of this
Republic l greet the representatives of
all our sister Republics to the south of
us. In q sense, you are our elder Sis

He Looked In ALI Rinht.


Only narrow alley separates the
press rooms of two of the afternoon
papers of Chicago. Both go to press
at the same hour. When the warm
copies of the three O'Clock edition of
one paper come forth. copy is taken
at once to the city editor of the other
paper. who scans 1t closely, to catch
for his own later edition anything he
may have missed Meanwhile sim
liar scene is enacted across the alley.
One afternoon. as the city editor of
one of the papers sat at his desk, a
young man walked briskly in and ad-
dressed him.
"City editor?" he asked.
The editor nodded.
I'm from the Mail" said the young
man, "Mr. Smith sent me over to see
what you had that we haven't got
about that school story"
The city editor sat aghast.
Hey? What?" he stammered. Say
that again, young man."
"Mr. Gmith wants to know what
you've Pot about that school story
that we nave not"
"Say-here-get out, you!" exploded
the city editor. 81 don't know who
you are, but get out OF her quick!"
Then taking down his telephone and
calling up his rival across the alley,
he asked
Say, Smith, who did you send over
here?"
81 didn't send anybody over. Why?"
The editor of the Newsletter related
the incident.
what did he look like? oh. say,
here. know. That was my wild man,

told him to Look in the Newsletter,
and see what they'd got on the school
story that we hadn't He looked in,
did he?"
There was roar of laughter in both
Offices but 1t was turned to the wild
mans" side when the managing editor
who heard the story, declared that a
man who went ahead when he thought
he was right, was worth higher
salary.

YOUNG PRISONER OF STATE.
Five Year Old Chinese Girl Has Been
Held Here Four Years.
Phones 155

Held Here Four Years.
The Youngest prisoner in the Uni
ted States is Yute Ho il, aged FIVE.
She has been prisoner of Uncle
Sam for more than four years, says
the San Francisco Bulletin. The crime
for which she is paying the penalty
Is the crime of being a girl baby,
which In China is a crime indeed.
She was born in an interior village
In China, and her mother was very
glad to take the $40 offered by a
woman who went there from San
Francisco to buy slave girls for the
San Francisco Chinatown.
She was happy, this slave dealer,
when she sighted San Francisco on
her return Journey, and she shufied
easily along the pier when she left
the boat. The inspectors all knew
her, for she had been back and forth
many times. 1t was because they
knew her that they questioned her
about the little bundle in her arms.
She told them the baby was her own,
for It is a lie that comes first to a
Chinaman's lips.
This was her undoing. II the court
she added lie TO lie, but in the end
the Judge knew that the baby had
not been born to her. The infant
could not be deported, because no
amount of questioning could make
the woman reveal the hcme OF the
child. On the other hand, she could
not he entered, and babies under a
year are too little TO go to Jail. At
length the Judge decided to turn his
little prisoner over TO a mission that
makes a business of rescuing Chi
nese slave women, with the agree
ment of 40 cents day for her board,
In the four years she has been at
the mission Yute Ho il has become
the pet of the household, and II
seems to be an instance OF the pun
ishment fitting the crime.
