Attorney Fickert today for Johnsons
parole. Johnson claims that he must
be in New York City before April 10

a good chance of losing the $4,000 and
of serving out his full twenty five day

is. The district attorney and Sheriff

Men off First Base For
Five Rounds.

Evansville, Ind, April 4.-Chicago.s
sub-Cubs engaged in a mighty war

team in the mud yesterday afternoon
and after two hairbreadth escapes, and
the timely arrival of Joe Tinker as re-
Endorsements, they managed to win,
80 e. IN eleven innings.
Twice during the narrowing events
of the closing rounds Evansville hit
ters banged the ball almost over the
left field fence. and in either case a
bit OF luck would have turned the tide
and given them the game-\
Indeed, 1t was day eventful In the
history of the Cubs. They played like
the ST. Louis Browns. getting twenty
six men on bases and being lucky TO
score enough runs to hold the score
even. until finally in the eleventh in
ming Steinf1eldt Jared the balance
downward with terrific line drive
over the left field fence and broke the
tie.
After that the defense crumbled a
bit and the Cublets got onto the fact
that Myers, a little left-hander who
could pitch well in spots, could not
pitch at all with men on bases, and
they ran circles around the bases.
But even after that these upstart
Central league bushers. who have not
been on any expensive training trip,

by Jimmy Doyle to prevent another
tie after two men were out. and that

ROUNDS WITH PACKEY
Ohio Fighter Is Outpointed,
But Gives Chicago Man
a Lively Battle.

Canton, O.. April Paul Kohler
stayed ten rounds with Packey Nc
Farland last night Packey had a
shade. but was given a lively battle.
In the first round Kohler was timid.
Packey's reputation apparently fright
ened him In the second Kohler re-
covered his nerve. played hard for Nc
Farland's face and landed several
times. The Chicagoan was evidently
leading him on. The third round made
1t look for while as if the stock
yards lad was not fighting, but toward
the end he sent a couple to Kohler's
face.
The fourth was easily McFarland's.
He hooked over several to Kohler's
face and knocked the Cleveland fight
err through the ropes.

The fifth was tame Neither man
struck a telling blow and the crowd
restless
The men spent the fifth feinting and
clinching and it was so embarrassing
the crowd kept crying for fight.
Packey slammed his left to Kohler's
stomach at will, with Kohler trying to
evade punishment. The crowd by this
time was kissing the apparent lay
down.
In the ninth the men mixed ii free
ly. with Packey hitting kohler at will.
Mcfarland opened up for the first
time in the tenth. using a right hook
effectively on Koh1er's jaw He fol-
lowed this with left and right short
arm swings to the stomach. Kohler
came back lighting hard and got past
McFarland's guard for two good blows
to the face. The rest of the round was
spent in clinching and feinting.

CHILD CULTURE

A. Federal Children Bureau.
byProf. Hollis, V. C.
Normal School,.

The National Child La Dor Commit
tee have sent out to the friends OF
children an appeal for support in So
curing the passage in Congress of H,
r. Bill No. 27O6s. The measure is OF
such Importance to Child Welfare
that I take pleasure in reproducing
p large part Of the Appeal:
A bill to establish in the Depart
mont of Commerce and Labor a bureau
10; be known al the Children's Bureau.
Be 1t enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of tho Unit
ed States Of America in Congress as
sembled, that there shall be estab-
lished in the Department of Commerce
and Labor q bureau to be known as
The. Children's Bureau.
Sec. 2. That the said bureau shall
be under the direction of a chief, to
be appointed by the President, by and
with the advice and consent of the
Senate, and who shall receive an an
nual compensation Of four thousand
dollars. The said bureau shall inves.
tigate and report upon all matters
pertsinining to tho welfare of children
and child life, and shall especially
investigate the questions of infant
mortality. the birth rate, physical de-
g%eneracy, orphanage, Juvenile delin-
quency and juvenile courts, desertion,
dangerous occupations, accidents and
diseases of children, employment, leg.
islation affecting. children in the sew.
eral states and territories, and such
other information as may have a bear
ing upon the health, efficiency, char.
acter and training of children. The
chief of said bureau may, from time
to time, publish the results of these
Investigations.
Sec. 3. That there shall be in said
bureau, until otherwise provided for
by law, an assistant chief, to be ap.
pointed by the Secretary of Commerce
and Labor, who shall receive an an.
nual compensation Of twenty-four hun
dred dollars; one private secretary to

helpless class. Whatever is done for
them must be done by others. The
argument for individual initiative can
not apply.to Thorn.
The mere enumeration of the pro.
blems which the children's bureau of
information is required especially to
investigate indicates the Importance
of such . bureau of information and
publicity.
Take the question of infant mortal
ity, for example. It is estimated that
800, 600 children under one year of
age die in the United States, and that
one-hxlf Of these deaths ars prevent
able by the knowledge and, applica-
ton of the proper remedies Or proven
tive MEASURES. Thus, taking into &C
count the un~prevsntable mortality of
late years, 1,O0Q,000 American-born
children are lost to TIE country every
ten years through lack of proper in
formation.
The question of diseases of children
suggests the fact that a quarter of the
blind children now in schools for the
blind in this country are u~nnscessar-
lily blind, such blindness being easily
~preventabls by the application of q
simple remedy soon after birth.
Another problem concerning which
information is greatly desired il the
problem Of the dependent children,
whose condition makes a special ap.
peal. The whole question OF the in
stitutional care of the orphans and the
work of the home-placing societies
needs authoritative Investigation.
1t is estimated that there are 90, 600
children collected in institutions and
that the cost of supporting them .iss Be-
tween fifteen and twenty million dol
lars a year. It is presumed that there
are $4,000 orphans taken care Of by
other charitable agencies of various
kinds. How these 14O, 600 or $50, 600
children are being cared for, and how
they turn out after leaving these in
situations or the homes of their adop-
ton is a matter OF profound interest to,
the nation.
