Sioux Falls-The South Dakota
Children's Home society at their reg
ular quarterly meeting held at the re-
ceiving home in this city On the first
of this month, found themselves con-
fronted with some rather perplexing
problems. PerpleXing because the So
ciety is entirely dependent upon the
free Will contributions Of the public
for Its support, n hence when a
new building or anv Improvements
are necessary requiring the expendi-
ture OF money, they are always trou-
bled to know just what to do. The
residences in this city, and especially
within easy access to the home, are
very scarce, and a home has got to
be built for the superintendent. The
board OF control ook h first steps
in this direction at this meeting and
plans will at once be prepared for
such a home, to be erected upon
ground already acquired In close prox-
unity to the home. A detention hos
pital is another necessity which they
will undertake to provide this year
and bank upon the future with which

from every quarter Of the state have

be lifted during the year by generous
donations of cash from over the state.
At the above meeting the report Of
the superintendent showed that 1880
children had been cared for by the
home since it's organization. Thirty
two were cared for, for the first time
during the quarter just ended. and
making seventy-one In all cared for.
There were twenty-six little children
in the home on March 1st crying for
foster parents. Five of the number
being babies.
The secretary-treasurers report
showed the present finances OF the
home to be in very good shape. The
monthly running expenses of the So
ciety are In the neighborhood of ST.
900.
The society mas plenty OF clothing
at this time but finds itself in great
need of provisions with which to feed
Its hungry family. Potatoes. flour and
vegetables of all kinds will be gladly
accepted. They can be shipped in py
freight at small expense.

PREACH GOSPEL OF HEALTH
Plan to Have One Sermon on Sunday,
April "a, Devoted to Scourge
Of tuberculosis.

Following campaigns against con,
sumption that have been carried On in
the churches of hundreds of cities, and
on tuberculosis that have
been preached before thousands Of con.
gregations during the past year, a
movement has been started by the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis to estab-
i1sh a permanent tuberculosis Sunday,
on which it is hoped that every one of
the $4,000 900 church-goers in the
United States will hear the gospel OF
health. This year the Sunday selected
is April "a. 1t is planned that on April
"a tuberculosis shall be
preached in all the churches of the
country. Literature will be distributed
to members of the congregations, and
In every way an effort will be made to
teach that tuberculosis is a dangerous
disease and hat it can be prevented
n cured.
~Clergymen who desire to obtain ad
ditional information in regard to tu-
~pberculosis will be able to secure litera-
ture from state and local anti-tubercu-
losis associations and boards of health,
as well as from the national asso-
citation.

Khartum Historical Spot.

Khartum Is virtually built around
the grave Of Chinese" Gordon. The
city itself is a gigantic monument to
that soldiers deeds and his heroic
death. In the center of 1t stands his
efflgy In bronze, mounted on a camel,
gazing with fixed eyes out toward
the desert which Knocked him during
the terrible year that he lay there
waiting for relief. Behind the statue
stands the British governors palace,
an imposing structure In the Gothic
style. typical Of British power and
British permanence.
Not far away is the Gordon Memoir
al college. a school built with funds
raised by Gen. Kitchener by subscrip-
ton throughout Great Britain. in
which the Sudanese newer generation
Is trained for service in the govern
ment which conquered Its fathers.
Everywhere throughout the city the
name Gordon appears. There Is the
Gordon hotel, the Gordon drive and
up the White Nile the Gordon tree.
Gordon's memory will live SO long as
Khartum exists. The British have
transformed the city of his death into
q memorial to his glory that can

Was Remarkable Journey.

Col. Roosevelt's arrival at Khartum
completed one Of the most notable
Journeys since the days of Livingstone
and Stanley. The visit to the dark
continent and the invasion of the lair
of the lion. tiger, elephant and rhinoc.
eros has been remarkable because of
the escape Of Col. Roosevelt and his
aides from the deadly contagious dis,
eases that haunt the jungles. Up to
the time of his arrival there had been
nc serious accidents.
The town of Khartum is a mass of
color. Flags OF Egypt. England and
America are everywhere. and the ex-
president has probably appreciated
nothing more than the opportunity OF
visiting this historical spot.
