TWENTY YEARS EACH
IN PRISON IS THE VERDICT

So fur was this carried. that after
Governor Patterson had been noml-
mated for governor and Cox had been
nominated for the State Senate, Major
Cooper journeyed to Bristol for the
purpose of getting out an Independent
candidate against him. RE-
These facts will serve to giorify

are honors and dlgnitlcs and offices
and substantlal rewards to be dis
ltributed-things that go TO heal the
hurt that honor ,feeis-and these
things were talked OF and considered.
But no doubt. the main thing was
that Governor Cox agreed to join him

NURSE BAKED CHILD ID DEATH ON
 STOVE
LITTLE VICTIM IN DYING AGONY DIsCLosEs TO FATHER THE
 GIRLS ACTION
MAID THEN CONFESsES CRIME
TO MAKE THREE YEAR OLD BABY BEHAVE" SHE HELD IT
 OVER RANGE

NEW YORK, April l.--"Don t put me on the stove again! I'll behave --I II behaveln
 The piteous cries of his three -year-old son, Aarthur, attracted the attention of William Johnson, 8 cabinetmaker at No. l25 Walton street, Brooklyn, when he returned home from work. At the time the child was in charge of Marjorie Wiles, woman twenty seven years old, who Johnson employed as housekeeper and nurse soon after the death of his wife last October.
 "What is the matter with the baby" demanded Johnson. Nothing" replied the woman. "He probably has been frightened by some children7'
 Johnson watched by the side of the little boy, who continued to repeat his promises to be good and cry out against the torture of being placed on a stove. He had no idea of the serious condition of the little fellow until in a pitiful spasm he suddenly expired. When Johnson returned with phy- sician one of the neighbors called him aside and told him that few nights ago persons living in the same house had heard the Miles woman threaten to put the child on the hot stove in the kitchen unless it stopped crying. A few moments later they heard the terri field screams of pain of the little fel- low and the angry voice of the woman.
 Johnson was amazed by the revela- tion. He told the physician what he had heard and an examination of the body discolsed terrible burns about the legs and back of the baby, burns a week old, which must have caused the baby unceasing pain until death came to its relief.
 When Lieutenant Coleman, of the Clymer Street Station, heard the story of the father he sent Policeman Clare to the house to arrest the woman. She was brought to the station, and after denying her guilt finally confessed the barbaric cruelty she had practiced on the baby given into her care and was held on charge of homicide. The woman had been employed by Johnson without any knowledge of her previous career or recommendation when she applied at his home for po- sition. She claimed that she loved chil- dren and would be glad to act as a mother to the 3-year-old boy.
 In the presence of Johnson she ap- peared to be kind and loving, and he gave her absolute charge. The neigh bors, however, say that she constantly punished the child. and they often heard it scream.
 After she place. it on the hot stove the child's cries If pain alarmed her and she sent for octor J. II. Kapper. She told him that the baby accidentally had fallen on the hot stove. The phy- sician advised that it be taken to the hospital at once.
 The woman was too frightened to do this, however, and by taking the baby into her room and soothing its cries managed to conceal its condition until an hour or so before its death.
 It's life might have been saved had the woman removed the child to the hospital soon after it was burned.

The Quipus.

The quipus. upon which the ancient Peruvians kept their records and ac- counts, consisted of a thick main cord. with smaller cords tied to 1t at certain distances. Upon these smaller cords the knots were tied by means of which the reckoning was kept. The length of the main rope varied from foot to several yards. The cords were of va- rious colors, each with Its own proper meaning--as red for soldiers. yellow for gold, white for silver. green for corn, and so on. The reckoning seems to have been largely regulated by the distances of the knots from the main cord and the sequence of the branches. New York American.

OHIO POLITICAL
PROGRAM READY
C. p. Taft is to Be Senator Two Years
Hence So Herrick Will Take Place
in Cabinet.

Augusta, Ga. Jan. S.-The visit here
of Senator Knox TO confer with Presi,
dept-elect Taft is in part for the pur-
pose of urging the name OF Myron T.
Herrick for the treasury portfolio.
Mr.. Herricks attitude toward a cab
met position has changed since the
election of Burton TO the United States
senate by the Ohio legislature Mr..
Ierrick, his friends say, had figured
that Charles p. Taft would be elected
to succeed ]. B. Foraker. and that two
years later, when Senator A. B. Dick 5
term expires. Herrick would succeed
him. but now it is conceded that c. P
Taft will get Dicks place in the senate
and that Mr. Herrick will have no
show for that office.
Now Mr. Herrick is out after the
treasury portfolio, which practically
was offered to him at one time, and
which he let it be understood he did
not care to accept, owing TO his sena-
torial aspirations. Instead of his own
name he urged that of Edward Swim
ney of Kansas City With Mr.. Her
ricks desire to become secretary of
the treasury, it is understood that Mr..
Swinney has practically given up hope
of securing the place.
