was to them the emblem of loyal
friendship, and instructing them in
their own language of the ways OF
civilization and religion. For years
he maintained a publication in the
Sioux language which carried in each
issue a personal message from him
to practically every member of the
various tribes of the Sioux nation.

FIGHT OVER EXPOSITION.

Washington, Dec. Whether
San Francisco OF New Orleans shall
be recognized by congress as the
best place to hold Panama Expo
sition in 1916, is subject which has
early been brought to attention of
the national lawmakers. Both cities
are represented here on the opening
day Of the session by determined
and eloquent citizens who will leave
no word unsaid that might lead to
success in their endeavor. For days
the congressman have been beseiged
by the forces of the rival cities and
have had to listen to interminable
arguments, facts, figures and statis-
ties as to why New Orleans is inn
measurably superior to San Francis
co as an exposition city or vice versa
Governor Sanders of Louisiana
heads the New Orleans lorces, and,
in addition to his labors with the
congressman, has been spending
much time in the various large cities
urging the claims of the Crescent
city. Within few days the warfare
is likely to reach fever heat, as
only the fact that New Orleans and
San Francisco are widely separated
probably prevents civil war from
being waged between the people of
the two cities.

JAPAN COULD GET us-MAYBE

Washington. Dec. g. That the
Japanese could easily capture the
western coast of the United States
is the inference to be drawn from the
report to congress by Major-Gen.
Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the
United States army. The Pacific
coast defenses are said to be entirely
Inadequate, and it is implied that
the landing of troops and the she'll
ing and capture Of cities would be
but child's play for a foe as well
prepared as Japan. While the report
does not, of course, refer to Nippon
as q possible enemy, military and
naval experts have been quick to
supply the deduction.
Gen. Woods recommendation to
congress set forth the garrisoning Of
Hawaii, the Panama canal zone and
the Pacific coast as an immediate
military necessity. The chief Of
staff also favors the abandonment of
all unnecessary military posts and
forts. especially those in the inter-
Tor OF the country. the increasing of
the infantry line by twenty-five
regiments and the concentration of
the troops in large garrisons along
the Atlantic. Pacific and Gulf coasts.

5000 BABIES STARVING RE.
suit OF GARMENT STRIKE
Appeal OF Urgency" tor Funds t.
Relieve Families Distributed
Over City.

Chicago, Dec. 5.-Five thousand
babies are starving in Chicago as the
result of the garment workers
strike; at least that is the report
made recently at meeting of the
citizens strike committee at Huh
House by committee of investiga-
tors who had visited the homes of
strikers families.
"A committee composed of Miss
Anna f. Nichols Of Neighborhood
house and Thomas w. Allenson OF
the Henry Booth house. was APP
pointed to take charge of the dis
tribution of the fund that is being
raised to relieve the suffering-es-
pecially that of the babies-in the
strikers families. An appeal of
urgency" has been prepared. and is
being widely distributed.
This appeal has nothing to do
with the merits of the strike No
matter what ones opinion on that
may be, their hearts are to be reach
ed for the unoffending little ones.
1T is as bad as the slaughter of
the innocents!' exclaimed Mrs
Joseph T. Bowen as she handed in a
check for $1,000 for special fund
to buy milk for the babies
1T is much worse" declared Mrs
Ellen NJ. Henrotin. Here we have
1000 babies dying for lack of nour-
ishment, while everyone knows there
were only 1000 of the innocents
slaughtered, and we have fused over
that for 800 years. 1t is time for
the citizens to wake up and learn
what is happening in our own city"
The babies milk fund.- is to be
kept separate and distinct from 9TH
er funds paid to assist the strikers
in their struggle with the clothing
manufacturers. Mrs. Bowen was
elected treasurer of the fund, which
starts this morning with SLIGO, the
check for 500 having been con-
tributed by Mrs. H. NJ. Wilmarth.
Estimates furnished at the meet
ing showed that at least 500 a day
would be needed to buy milk for
babies in actual want and from
present indications, it was said, that
amount will be needed for the next
month at least.
In a war between civilized ma
tions, the non-combatants are pro-
tected," said Mrs. Bowen. Surely
the poor innocent babies should not
be made to suffer because their par
ents may be engaged in strike
with their employers.
This appeal has nothing to do
with the merits of the strike. No
matter what ones opinion on that
may be, surely we can agree that
the children shauld be fed.
II hope the citizens of Chicago
will look upon this in the light of
reason and common sense and make
their contributions as liberal as they
can afford"

KING AT OUTS WITH
WINSTON CHURCHILL

London. Dec. g. King George is
reported on the highest authority
to have cut Home Secretary Winston
Churchill off the list of his acquain-
tances-officially as we'll as socially.
IT there is business to pass between
them, 1t must be through an inter-
mediary. The king is understood
to have told Premier Asquith he will
never see Secretary Churchill again.
AS matter of legal right, Asqulth
might have forced George to revoke
this order but that would have Gre
ated a mighty scandal, and the king
would certainly have the sympathy
OF his subjects in demanding that
he pick his own acquaintance.
The quarrel between his Majesty
and Churchill is said to have risen
from the formers habit OF reading
over personally every state paper
submitted to him to sign. 1nasmuch
as the home secretary must have a
vast number of papers signed by
the king, this entailed a great loss
'of time. So when he laid big
batch of papers on the Kings desk,
Churchill remarked significantly
that they were routine-which was
true and need not be read. George
replied with a solemn rebuke for
such careless business methods. I'm
on this Churchill, whose worst en-
envy has never charged him of lack
of confidence in the infallibility of
his own judgement. responded tart
ly that the kings business was
TO sign what papers his ministers
laid before him, and that it really
made no particular difference wheth-
err he ever read any of them.
Instantly, SO the gossips say, His
Majesty bounded out of his chair
with flow of that language he
feared in his early days in the royal
navy, and ordered Churchill out of
the place; ordered him to stay out,
too, as long as George ", was on
the throne.
Churchill is not the only one of
King Edwards favorites who has
been practically banished from court,
Most of them, though, saw what was
coming, and went of their own ac
cord. Sir Ernest Cassei, Edwards
intimate and business manager, is
utterly discredited. To those who
used to go to him on Bonded knees
for social advancement, is now given
an opportunity to cut him in Rotten
Row. Sir Thomas Upton will not
come near the court again; he is too
shrewed to expose himself to a Ger.
tain snub. Lord Marcus Beresford
maintains discreet retirement
among his horses at Newmarket.
Mrs. George Kepple has gone for a
voyage around the world that will
last for two years. Mrs. Hall Walk
er, wife of the multi-millionaire
brewer and racing king. is staying
quietly at her country home.
The old. staid nobility has come
back into Its own. The court is ex-
actly as 1t was under Victoria, fif-
teen years ago. At Balmoral, all
the lights go out at 1880 at night.
In the evenings. about the time Ed
ward was getting ready for his game
OF bridge, George and Mary are put
ting the children to bed. There will
be no scandal in this reign.

INCIDENT OF THE WAR

Stafford C. H., Va. Feb. II. 1910.

Harris Light Cavalry, in the u. S.
Army, gives sketch in the National
Tribune of Feb. 10th, 1910, of the ad-
vance of that army on Falmouth in the
Spring of '62.
He states that the march was de-
layed at Berea by running into the
Confederate Camp at that place. Your
correspondent well remembers the
circumstances of that advance. The
U. 5. Cavalry were composed of the
lst Pennsylvania Cavalry and the Har-
ris Light Cavalry; the Infantry was the

Much interest was also aroused by the
discussion of the topic of the evening.

giving these reports she stated that

more prominent dry men among the
merchants, so that the accounts might
not be prejudiced in favor of local op-
ton and that she had been much i'm
pressed by the uniform courtesy and
