MOTHER Of SLAYER
HOLDS BASTON BABY
Fight in Courts Threatened
by Sister of Convicted
Policeman'S Wife.

Who shall rear the little baby girl of
Charles G. Baston, the policeman who
shot and killed his wife last fall, must
be decided by the courts.
Upon the pretext of allowing the
father to hear the childish prattle OF
his little girl for the last time before
entering upon his life sentence behind
prison walls for the murder of his
wife, Mrs. Charles Striegnitz, who has
mothered the child since the tragedy,
allowed Mrs. A. c. Shumacker, the
slayer's mother, to take the child from
the Striegnitz home, 1881 Thirtieth street
northwest. Yesterday morning.
Return Is Promised.
She did this, she says. upon the ex-
press condition that the child be re-
turned to her Yesterday afternoon. But
she has not seen the baby since. In
stead. a note bearing the fathers name
was brought to her door by Mrs. Emil
Fisher 2231 Thirteenth street northwest,
late yesterday afternoon, reQueStn"
that all the child's clothing, toys, and
Fo-Cart be turned over to the bearer.
Mrs. Streigntz refused. She says she
will spend every cent she has in an
effort to get the baby back.

fill the vacancy created by the resig-
nation of Frank Green. Mr.. Judson's
place will be filled by A. +. Willie

Mr.. Green assumed charge of the
Central school as principal at the be-
ginning of the present year He
proved himself To be an efficient edu-
Gator. In fact, no teacher ever made
u better record as principal of the
Central school and il was with dis
tinct regret that the trustees accept
ed his resignation. Williams made
him an offer which he could not af-
ford to refuse, however, and the
finances of this district would not
permit the trustees to make a coun-
ter offer Fortunately, the assistant
principal, Mr.. Judson, had also
made good" and without hesitation
he was promoted.
The new principal came to Phoenix
from Kalamazoo. Mich. last fall He
has had a number of years expert
ence as a teacher and is popular with
trustees, parents and children.
Mr. Willebrandt, the new assistant

a useful purpose and placed as it

And scarf pins are made in a prac-
ticsAly hmitless variety of styles. and
to be sure there are many that are
beautiful
while it is thus now commonly
worn half way down the four-in- hand
tie. there are various ways of stick
ing the scarf pin. The most common
way is to stick the pin with its
whole length concealed in the ma
terial of the tie, leaving only the
head in view. Then you may see
men who run the pin through the
material in and out leaving sections
OF the pin exposed.
Some younger men have a way of
running the point OF the pin through
only a narrow fold or ridge of the
silk and then drawing the pin through
for almost its entire length outside.
This brings the little section of the
silk through which the pin is run
up out of sight under the covering
head of the pin. giving the pin the
of lying unsecured, wholly
outside of the tie.
SO scarfpins, while now common
ly worn in the middle of the eX-
posed length of the tie and frankly

in various ways, and now there are
made. as you doubtless know, stick

Further progress toward the organi-

that the directors Of the mining con-
gress are planning to have the con-
gress meet in Arizona this year,
though no selection has been Off
cially made They are to meet in
Salt Lake in a short time to make a
decision.
Some little time was spent in dis
cussing the question of constitution
and bylaws. one of the first things
TO be done is To formulate con-
stitution. Harold Baxter and Harry
Welch were appointed as a committee
to secure a copy of the constitution

Baxter had already written several
letters to Denver. Los Angeles and
other places for data of this nature
and hopes to receive replies To most
of his inquiries within a few days.
The next meeting will be Wednesday
afternoon at o'clock. at which time
something definite toward adopting
constitution can be accomplished.
