President Taft was elected an active
member of the Society of Mayfower
Descendants Tuesday night by virtue
OF a discovery that hee is a descendant
of Francis Cook, one of the Pilgrims
who landed at Plymouth in 1890.
1t was a happy surprise to the Pres
ident. He had never been taken into
the society because his family history
could not be traced back far enough.
When he was informed recently that
A. A. Aspinwal. the historian, had
established the missing connections:
that the general board of the May
flower Society. at Boston. had ap-
proved his findings: that the society
had taken him in, he exclaimed:

BABY BURNS TO DEATH,
CRIES DISREGARDED

NEW YORK. Special.-Childish pro-
tests and wailing such as Mrs. Agnes
Kenny has often heard from her chill
dren-Rose, age three, and James, eigh-
teen months-attracted her attention as
she was working Monday night on the
top hoor of her furnished room house
at 90 East One Hundred and Seventh
street. She assumed that Rose was
teasing the baby, and continued about
her work
But the wailing grew louder. She
no longer heard Roses voice; only the
cry OF little James. She ran down
three flights of stairs to the kitchen.
where she had left the children. Smoke
was curling out of the door. Rushing
inside the room. she saw Rose lying on
the floor, flames licking up the little
dress.
Mrs. Kenny ran to the bedroom.
snatched a blanket and wrapped AZ
around the body of her child. The con-
tents of a box of matches lay scattered
on the Moor, and James held one. un-
lighted. in his hand. Neighbors re-
sponded to the calls from Mrs. Kenny.
They found her in a dead faint with the
lifeless form of her daughter in her
arms.
