who warmly commended the STARS
resolution to continue the outings and
the distribution of free ice. Many OF
the Inmates of the home last year en-
joyed the privileges of one Of the out
ings. and showed clearly the benefit
which they derived from It.
AS Is well known. the babies In those
homes where the glare of q midsummer
u is u~nmitigated by those MANIFOLD
comforts and devices which make the
season elsewhere endurable are exposed
10 the greatest danger at this time
which they encounter throughout the
entire year.
Many Lives saved.
Imagine a little frame house in an
open lot and tie time July rs. unop-
posed by the foliage OF shade trees,
rays OF the snltry sun beat down pitt
lessb on the house and through the
uncurtained windows which are ex-
posed to it. Everything in the house is
hot ana sticky. What milk there was
left from breakfast has soured. Ice Is
as much of a luxury as diamonds would
be. Yet at the same time IT is a
necessity. When a necessity is an un-
~attainable luxury something has to
give. 1t is altogether probable that II
there. is a sick baby in this little un-
protected house and the necessity ice
remains the luxury Ice, that the baby
will die. There are thousands of sick
babies IN thousands of just such little
unprotected houses in Newark. The
STAR was enabled through the gener-
osity of contributors to the ice and
fresh air funds last year to solve the
TERRIBLE problem which the mothers OF
these babies faced by furnishing the
ice which in many cases was alone
necessary to save their lives.
From such an environment as the
one. pictured above 1900 babies and
their mothers were taken for a long,
cool sail down the bay. and were en-
abled 10 spend a wonder day digging
In the wonderful sand, bathed by the
sea- breezes. soothed by the swish
swash OF the ocean; a day which per-
haps they would never forget in all
their lives, which substituted hope for
despair and made the battle for eX-
istence a little more worth while. The
STAR seeks to give the mothers and
children other such days this SUNNI
and toward hat enc seeks eontribu-
tions to the fund.

which forbids The display on saloon

I. MISSING
THE SIX PASSENGERS ARE sup
POSED TO HAVE PER-
ISHED.
(By Associated Press.)

LOS ANGELES, March 22.-The
balloon, America, which assembled at
Pasadena Saturday afternoon bearing
six men, is still unheard from and
the gravest fears are entertained for
the safety of the aeronauts as the gas
bag was gripped by the sudden storm
within few minutes after the as
cent and disappeared in the clouds
and has not been seen or heard of
since. The storm continued Saturday
night, Sunday and Sunday night,
bringing snow to the Sierra Madre
mountains, towards which they were
headed when last seen. If they fail
ed to get high enough to cross the
Mojave desert all six are probably
dead from cold and hunger, if not
dashed to pieces by falling from the
balloon. Searching parties are out in
all directions and more are leaving
by train and automobiles.
The mountains are almost impas-
sible from snow, but the government
rangers are searching the canyons in
every direction in the hope of finding
some trace of the men. Up to a late
hour not favorable report has been
received.
The America is racing balloon be-
longing to Richard Morris, and the
ascent was made under the direction
of Captain A. P. Mueller, an exper-
fenced balloonist and veteran of
many thrilling flights. With him
were Lane G. Gillian, mining man
staying at Pasadena, Richard Hal
stead, Sydney Gray, Harold Parker
and F. c. Dodschutz, all of Pasadena.

WASHINGTON. March "a
Among the 495 bills and four joint
resolutions introduced In the senate
today was the one presented by Hey
burn providing for the creation of
new executive department to be
known as the department OF mines.
Senator Flint OF California presented
a bill directing the secretary OF war
to establish steamship line on the
Pacific coast to connect with the fed
eral line on the Atlantic coast via the
Panama railroad. The bill appropri-
ates $10,000,000 for the purpose. He
also reintroduced the bill appropriat-
ing $1,663,136 to reimburse the
Southern Pacific for controlling the
Colorado river levee break in 1906.
The house listened for four hours
and ten minutes to Payne, the ways
and means committee chairman, who
opened the debate on the tariff Payne
became fatigued and was allowed to
postpone the rest of the explanation
of the bill until tomorrow.
1t Is said for certain that France
Germany and other European com
tries will hasten readjustment OF the
duties on American products. so as to
take advantage of the minimum rates
fixed In the bill.
The minority report as submitted
by Clark declares the Payne bill Is
calculated to increase. the cost OF liv-
ing and that 1t is crude. indefinite,
sectional and prohibitive," and Is cal
culated to be construed SO that every
nation is open to a challenge for a
trade war.

Willies' story, the boy was being
made ready, and one of his captors
brought him from the hiding place,
the location of which is a mystery,
taking him to car bound for the
city and as they neared the carline
disguised the boy with smoked glass
es, cap pulled well down, placed the
boy on the car, paid his fare and in
structed him to go to the Hollenden
hotel where he would see his father,
and disappeared in the darkness.
Willie proceeded in the car, where
he was recognized by two boys who
helped him to the hotel, where he
walked into the lobby alone,
the father waiting for him in
another room. When Mr.. Whitla
heard that strange boy was in the
lobby he rushed out, gathered his son
in his arms and covered his face with
kisses. Whitla declares he will not
reveal his transactions with the kid
nappers and virtually defies the po-
lice to discover.
