SHAME AND

ample of the truth of this statement,
and the letter comes from mother
who, after turning her children
over to the tender mercies of char
fly, who after allowing herself to
sink below the level of womankind,
still finds the mother-love crying
out SO strong within her that she
is compelled to attempt to recover
the children whom she so careless
1y cast away.
Here is the story behind that
letter, which was received by
Matron Dey of the Spokane Or
phan's home:
Some months ago a woman came
to the Home with three little chill
dren. The woman showed by in
distinguishable marks that she was
of the usual class which foists the
care of their offspring upon the
world at large.
She declared that she was unable
to earn a living for the little ones,
and that she wished to give them
up entirely.
1t was carefully explained to her
to the Home absolutely they would
be placed out for adoption, and she
was told that she could never see
them again. To this she agreed.
When she went away from the
Home the children chung to her and
cried and begged not to be left
behind.
Mamma, you must be crazy, to
leave us like this" walled the old
est child, girl of seven.
But the woman shook them off
and went her way. Later she re-
turned with a man whom she intro
duced as her husband, saying that
she had only been married that
day. She had a roll of bills, but
she left the children with less than
one dollar Of money.
1t was learned that she had given
up the children for the express pur-
pose of marrying the man, and that
he himself had two children in an
orphans home.
The man and the woman went
away and nothing more was heard
from them. One of the children, a
beautiful baby girl, was placed In
the home of a well-to-do family and
has been legally adopted.
Now the woman writes and begs
Sin the name of God give me back
my babies!"
Despite her previous neglect of
her children, despite her apparent
lack of maternal affections, the
mother instinct still exists, and the
mother heart cries out in anguish:
''Giye me back my babies!"

STORY OF THE IMAM ON
THE BOX"

For the fifth weeks offering the
Baker Stock company will present
THE Man on the Box" dramatiza-
ton from the book of the same
name by Grace Livingston Furniss.
The Harold Macgrath story of The
Man on the Box" is replete with
comedy and dramatic surprises and
abounds with terse and witty
speeches. 1t is founded upon the
practical joke of a young army Off
GER, who plans to give his sister a
pleasant surprise by exchanging
places with the family coachman,
driving her home from fancy ball,
then Gaping the climax with kiss.
In the confusion of the carriage
calls, he gets on the box of the
wrong carriage and drives away
with two young ladies whom he
never met and with one of whom
he has fallen in love. He loses con-
troll of the horses, becomes the CEN
trail figure in a midnight runaway
and ends in a cell at the police
station.

When two police officers arrest
Z woman and 4 man not husband
and wife, caught In . room In the
residence district, and then walk
around the block, hold a pow-wow
and turn the couple loose, II is time
that the decent people Of this city
open their eyes and ask, "Whither
are we drifting?"
Since the suppression of the re-
sorts ON Front avenue, following
the publication of charges against
Acting Chief of Police Sullivan, de-
cent people living in respectable
hotels and in the residence districts
can expect to face about such con-
ditions as are laid bare in this case.
Saturday night about IL o'clock a
pioneer resident of the city and
property owner residing at 101
West Second avenue, telephoned to
the police station for an officer to
arrest a man and a woman that
had taken a room in nearby
house. Much complaint had been
made about the carvings on at this
place, and at last the evidence de-
sired had been secured.
After half an hours delay, the

G O NTIN u E d

ATTEMPT TO

plot has been known to The Press
from the first. The things alleged
were revealed by one of those who
were to act.
The plan as alleged was that the
woman was to go to the editor of
The Press, tell him that she had a
clipping from Portland paper
about a woman formerly living in
this city, and that the article would
be of use in the investigation of
the police department. Then she
was to ask him to come to her room
to see the clipping.
AS soon as he had entered her
room, the alleged plan was to have
detective notify the police, and
then he would be arrested on the
usual charge in such cases. In this
manner, according to the charges,
it was thought The Press and its
editor could be forced to give up
the exposure of police methods,
through threatened publicity of the
arrest on trumped-up charge.
Action in the case followed &C.
cording to the allegations made by
the one who told of the plans. The
woman appeared at The Press
office on the day it was said she
would. She told Of the newspaper
clipping and asked the editor to
come to her room to see it. These
and other facts concerning the al
legged conspiracy are known, and
will be brought out fully at the
hearing of the charges.
In the face Of this and the other
charges, Sullivan lodges behind
technicalities, asserts that he is not
even chief Of police, and is afraid
to let the council hear the case.
And Mayor Pratt is as silent and
inactive as he was in the Ralston
and all the other affairs which the
council has had to settle.
The Press has nothing but pity
for the poor woman in the alleged
conspiracy case. She was simply
used, if the facts are true, as the
tool of the police. The police have
had in their power many women
who are called stool pigeons" and
whose duty it is to spy and entrap
others. The fight is simply against
the Internal system which attempts
to rule or ruin citizens, instead of
conducting the police department
for the GOOD of citizens.

POLICE TURN A
GUILTY COUPLE LOOSE

policeman on the beat called and he
said that he could do nothing alone,
so he telephoned for another man
to come from the station. The man
came, the room was entered, and
the couple placed under arrest. The
two policemen and their charges
were seen to disappear around the
corner, and nothing further was
heard of the matter until Tuesday,
when the party who had notified
the police telephoned to the station
and asked when the trial of the
couple arrested Saturday at a GER
tain number of Browne was to be
held.
mo record of the arrest" said
the man at the station. Afterward,
after consulting with some of the
other men at headquarters, the desk
man said that an arrest ION sus-
picion" had been made at the num-
Der designated, but that the couple
was afterward released because of
insufficient evidence"
The policemen had been seen to
enter the room, rout the occupants
out, and yet the evidence was ''in-
sufficient"
