Denver. Col. Aug. 1.-Two very new babies happened. to make their entrance into. this vale of tears at ex- actly the same moment of the same day at St. Luke's hospital. Though one baby was born to the purple, which means money in heaps, the other came to share a humber lot, yet their hab- its and motions were identical.
 Being born in "a civilized country,
 the first decent thing for baby to do was to be sswaddled. Simultaneously.
 therefore, out of two rooms came the
 nurses bearing infants toward the
 dressing room.
 Just. then uprose a clamor. Care fully the brand new citizens were laid
 in cradles while the nurses rushed to
 meet the emergency. Having met it,
 back they came, entering the dressing room together.
 <"which baby is which?" was the question shot from frightened eyes. Neither was certain and both were frightened over the mix. and the toilet tof the strangers was completed in si- 1ence.
 One mother-the woman of plenty
 gave one penetrating look at her son, then:
 This is not my baby" she cried. Where is he? What have you done with my baby?" In the adjoining room the other mother, hugged close to her side the infant she had gone into the valley of the shadow to bring forth. Isn't he sweet?' whispered the wo- man, and he's all mine. It doesn't seem real that he's mine" .Is he hers?" That's the question l that the frightened nurses are ask ing.
 It's question that the lady of plenty
 broods over and insists on being an- swered, right. For her material in- stinct has failed to blaze by contact with the infant placed in her arms, because she insists that her baby. had a mark.
 l The other mother is content in her possession and refuses to relinQuish.

Boys Spleen Removed
 In Successful Operation

New York. Aug. 1s.-House Surgeon George Bennett of Harlem Hospital and his assistants, Drs. Herrity and Smith are congratulating themselves upon the successful outcome of diff hcult operation performed on Louis Rosenzweig, 2 years old of 5S East 103d Street, last Thursday. The opera ton was the only one Of it's kind ever performed in Harlem Hospital and ac- cording to the surgeons, is one which seldom results successfully. It consists in tying the splenic artery and re- moving the spleen.
 Such an operation was found to be necessary in the case of young Ros- enzweig, who fell down the dumbwait- CT shaft in his home on Thursday morning and broke his spleen. All though realizing the danger, the sur geons operated upon the child imme- diately as the only means of saving lis life and since. then the youngster has been improving steadily.
 It is expected that he will be strong enough to leave the hospital in two weeks.

BIG MOSQUITOES
 FAR OUT AT SEA

Galveston, Texas, Aug. 18.-Passen- gers on board the Mallory line steamer Denver, Capt. Young, just in from New York, were attacked by myriads of large mosquitoes at sea two days out from Galveston. and about eighty miles off the Louisiana. coast.
 Capt. Young declares this is a. new record for mosquitos, which were never before known to venture more than five miles to sea. The pests were not driven by strong winds for only moder- ate breezes had been blowing for days.
 The mosquitoes drove the crew and passengers frantic for two days and nights. They are described as very large and extremely vicious. Officers and passengers watched the black cloud of winged insects approach the vessel for many miles, rising as ii from the gulf, but none guessed what it was till the insects drove men and women to quarters.

glaciers in Alaska are receding Some,
however, fluctuate like the famous
