Miss Kunkle. who is conscious, Is
positive that someone tried to kill
her, but she says she has no idea who
fired the shot or what the motive was.
Her father and her brother. Adolph.
a railway mail clerk of 422 Lafayette
street, Kansas City, Kas., are certain
that she had no enemies. She is
somewhat sensitive about her deaf
ness and had little company.
The only sweetheart she ever had,

year ago. There seems to be no
foundation for the belief expressed
yesterday that the assailant mistook
Miss Kunkle for another young wom-

only infrequently, and had not been
there for several days. Sheriff Nc

PARSONS BILL HEARING.
Child Bureau Advocates Before the
House Committee

Judge Ben Lindsey of Denver. the juve-
nile court pioneer, and other leaders of
the national child labor commission who
gathered in Washington upon the invi-
tation of President Roosevelt, appeared
at the Capitol today to urge the passage
of the bill introduced by Representative
Herbert Parsons of New York, provd-
ing for the establishment of a chi!dren's
bureau.
The hearing was before the committee
on expenditures in the Interior Depart
ment, under the jurisdiction of which Il
is proposed to place the bureau.
Judge Lindsey declared it to be a ma
tional disgrace that there was no way in
which reliable statistics regarding de-
pendent or criminal children could be
gathered. He said that it was a problem
to which the federal government could
proftably devote itself and at the same
time be of invaluable assistance TO the
states. He called attention to the fact
that 100000 children brought into
court each year for various offenses,
which meant that each generation fur
nished 100000 children for punishment
in the courts. The seriousness of this
situation. Judge Lindsey said. could be
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1909-01-27

demonstrated by figures, which showeu
that s. per cent of these chlidren return
to iail within five years for offenses worse
than these which started them on a career
Of crime.
The government he said. should hnd Out
the causes which send children to jail. 'he
treatment given them there. what is done
to correct their views of life and the pre-
yentive measures which are taken
against their return. The states. ne poiilt-
ed out. are today without stimular on
the subject and officials in the various IN
stitutIons do not compile statistics, De-
cause none is required.
Representative Bennett OF New 1ors
said that if the Parsons bill Is enacted
into law it would go far beyond sowing
the problem of the existence OF Dependent
children. and would in the course or a
few years result in the wiping out OF a
class of dependent children. with conse-
uuent decrease in Juvenile crime. He de-
plored the fact that this government is
not sufficiently interested to deal with TINS
great problem in scientific manner, and
pointed out that in this respect the United
States was far behind France and other
European countries.

ABOUT THAT NEW STREET.
EAST Slider" Thinks 1t Needed and
Tells Why it is Wanted.

Editor Reflector: In recent is
sue you expressed the opinion that
the proposed street from Third to
Cottage, an extension of Olive, is
not needed because the crossing
would be dangerous one and would
cost several hundred dollars. In this
you are wrong. The people of north
east part of town in going to the
creamery or to any of that section
have to make wide detour down to
the AbilenA works or by the Buck
eye crossing, also southside people
going northeast. The fact that over
200 signers were on the petition indi-
Gates how badly it is wanted. 1t
would be no more dangerous than
any other crossing and less SO than
some as there would be one less
track to cross. The Union Pacific
naturally does not want it but the
people do and the cost is no greater
than for dozens of other things that
have been done in the town while this
is for better purpose. The east part
Of the city is very DESTROYS of this
crossing as is the southside, and the
council will doubtless listen to the

TROUBLES OF THE EDITOR.

The life of a country editor is full
of sorrows and vexations and also
pleasures. He sees every side OF hui
mainly and knows all about the dis
positions and characteristics OF his
constituents. His daily grind Is a
mixture OF pleasures. Vexations and
hopes. One caller will come Ia and
pay his subscription, compliment the
paper for the noble work it is doing
for the town and county and leave
the editor full Of Joy and satisfac-
ton. He thinks that man is apprec-
iative. The next man will want to
lick the editor because he published
a bit of news that told Of some trou-
BILE that the caller had had which
ended in the police court. The next
man viii hand in long puff Of him
self and his business written on sta
tionery printed in Chicago or some
other place and ask to have It pub
lIshetl Just to fill up, The next man
win ask you to bid on a small JOB
Of printing and then send it to Chr
cage because he can save a nickle.
And thus it goes from morning till
night. What is the editor to do?
Just do like everybody else, the best
he can under the circumstances.
The Observer received dollar a
few DAYS abo from lady who gave
the paper few nice words and said
that she had been taking It for thirty
years and never allowed her sub

That was one experience and a pleas

A few days ago we lost Of job OF
printing because we could not afford
to do It at the price quoted by firm
in Fredonia, Kan. That was all right.
We prefer to not do work unless
there is small margin Of profit ana
that is the rule with all business men
A few days ago the Observer Sc
