LITTLE CHILDREN
WANT A HOME
A story in the Minor Key at The JOY
Gus YuIetide That Deserves
Attention.

An honest, hard working laborer in
the stone quarries, and who resides
in this city, is facing family situa-
ton that is giving him no little trou-
Bile. His wife has been in one of the
hospitals for the past eleven weeks un
dergoing treatment, and now her re-
covery seems to be doubtful. He has
two little boys. one five and the other
but one year old who. under present
conditions, are deprived of their moth
eT's care. They have lately been tax
en- care of by three female relatives.
but the latter refuse to longer bfar
the burden unless some hired help is
provided This the man can not af-
ford to do from mrs scanty wages, in
addition to the amount he has to pay
weekly for his wife's support at the
hospital
In this dilemma the man has APP
bealed to the Stone Home to use its
good offices to help him out Of his
trouble by taking his two children and
caring for them. But constituted as
mat institution is this plan is imprac-
ticable. The father says he can
board at the quarries but he must
have some place for his children and
though it Is not an orphns' home In
the genral sense of the term, yet his
first thought was OF the Stone Home.
If amy family or families would be
willing to take two little boys, under
the circumstances related above, they
are requested to communicate with
the Stone Home. and thus relieve a
that is at once sad and per
picking.

AvATORS DROP
FROM SKY TOOEATH
Antoinette Monoplane Turns Over
Twice In Descent--contest For
$4,000 Was Fatal.

Paris, Dec. 29.--The worst aero
plane accident in the history OF
French aviation occurred yesterday at
Issy, when Marquis Miro Paula and
Alexandra Laffon. chief pilot OF the.
Antoinette School OF Aviation, were
killed in 200-foot fall of their An,
toinette monoplane.
IsaffdA's wife witnessed the tragedy
Within 10 Minutes OF the time she
kissed her husband farewell she threw
herself I'M paroxysm Of grief over
his mangled body. She Is In critical
condition from the shock.
Laffon was plotting the machine
and Paula. the owner of THE aero
plane, was his passenger. They were
contrasting fer the $4,000 prize Offer
ed for the spediest two-passenger
flight from Paris to brussels and re-
turn.
When almost directly over the ham,
gar the machine capsized Isaffon
made frantic effort to right the falling
craft, but 1t dashed to the ground,
turning over twice in its descent. =.
Laffon fell few feet distant frnrn
the wrecked aeroplane, his head
crushed and bis right arm driven In
to his chest The Marquis was caught
In the wreckage Both men were I'M
conscious when horrlfied spectators
reached them
They were rushed TO Boucicanit
Hospital. Paula dying as he was be-
ing carried into the hospital and lai-
fen a few minutes later.
Laffon was ~ years old and one or
the hest known of the French instruc.
tors. Paula had done little lying
himself, but was one OF the chief pro-
moters Of the sport, spending much OF
his great wsalth In fnrtherlng the
science.
II rs thought that the steering gear
became jammed after the machine
had circled the grounds several times
for the edification OF the spectators.
