WOMEN TEND BAR
IN COPPER COUNTRY
Investigation by Michigan
Official Discloses Situa-
ton for Reform.

CALUMET, Mich, Sept. 26.-Miss
Luella Burton, sent to the upper PENN
sula by Perry Powers. state commits
sioner of labor. to investigate condi-
lions OF female labor in this part of
the state, has the idea that the. Michi-
gan copper country is wild camp.
Miss Burton says she finds women and
girls singing and dancing in copper
country saloons, tending bar and entic-
ing men to buy more and more.
Miss Burton has started to get busy
to effect cleanup of such conditions
that will make the copper country one
of the real spotless spots of the state.
Notices have been served on every sa-
loonkeeper into whose place of bust
ness Miss Burton has been able to pen
citrate to date, and the number is big
one. They have been notified that I'M
less they keep women and girls and
their families out of their saloons the
places will be permanently closed.
Other state deputies are going to see
that the law is obeyed.
Many of the saloonkeepers of the
district are naturalized American citi-
zens. They think little of having their
women and children in their places Of
business.
"They see no wrong init" says Miss
burton, but this does not make it
right" Miss Burton found that other
saloons or dives followed the example
and that a majority Of them employed
women trade getters.
Miss Burton has orders from Com
missioner Powers that the whole pen
dnsular must be cleaned up. "Is it
worse than Detroit?" she was asked.
and she hesitated to answer, admitting
that Detroit needs cleaning up as bad
1y as does Northern Michigan. But we
are doing something In Detroit and
are going to do more" she, added

BABIES
TERRIFIED BURGLAR
Thief Awakens Tots in Hos
pital and Leaps Fence
to Get Away.

CHICAGO, Sept. 26.-The concerted
bowling of 100 healthy lunged babies
at ST vincent's Orphan asylum, La
Sale avenue and West Superior street
routed a burglar who had entered the
children's dormitory there and sent
him racing out of the building and
down the street at a rate that couldn't
have been faster if he had the whole
Chicago police force after him.
The lights were dim on the second
floor of the dormitory, where the ba-
bies were asleep, when the burglar
quietly crawled in at window and
dropped noselessly to the floor.
1t was so dark that the thief could
not see, so he CROPPED Cropping, he oV-
erturned chair. Then things began to
happen. Miss Anna White, one of the
nurses, awakened by the fall of the
chair and frightened by sight of fly
ing figure half discerned in the lark
ness, screamed.
Instantly every baby in the big room
awoke, startled, cross and crying. The
babel of yellS that ensued galvanized
the burglar into action. Grabbing an
armful of clothes. he fled to the Win
dow, leaped to the fire escape, and
plunged down the stairs.
The burglar jumped over the rear
fence and was soon lost from view.
The screams of the babies awakened
everybody in the orphan asylum. In a
few minutes a score of policemen were
hunting for the burglar. No trace OF
the fugitive was found.

GERMANS DEFEAT INSURGENTS,
Five Of Former Killed In skirmish in
Caroline islands.

Berlin. Germany. The government
publishes lengthy report concerning
the rising of natives in Ponate, Caro-
line islands. The present report has
to do with the more recent operations
in that island, where several months
ago four Europeans and five friendly
natives were killed.
On Jan. "a, according to the latest
report, marines from the cruisers at.
tackled fortified position of the insur-
gents on lofty cliff. They routed and
dispersed the enemy, small bands,
however, making their escape to other
parts of the island.
The Germans lost five killed, includ-
ing one lieutenant and seven wounded.
Since the engagement many insur-
gents, including six ring leaders, have
come in and surrendered, owing to
hunger.
Detachments of the troops are
securing the island in the expectation
of capturing the others. It is further
announced that the operations are
nearly completed.
