WOMAN ADOPTED A NEGRO
THOUGHT SHE HAD WHITE CHILD
ANE GREW TIC LOVE 1T.
One of the Twisted Tragedies of Life
Is Reported From Texas. The
Foster Mothers Anguish.

DALLAS, Tex-One of the twist
ed tragedies of life was revealed in
Dallas yesterday afternoon when a
call reached the police department
that a white woman had given away
a white baby to negroes. Mounted
officers Dennis was sent to investi-
gate, and the truth was revealed. A
white woman in Dallas heard that a
woman in L ort Worth had a bright,
blooming babe for adoption. Her
heart yearned for a pratter about the
big house, and she had the woman
bring the child over and adopted
it. For days the youngster was the
JOY of the household and the foster
mother grew to love it as if it were
her own and to plan big things for
its future. Falling i'll she went to a
watering place near Dallas, taking
the child and it's nurse along. In her
sick condition the gurgling baby
proved the best tonic she had and
wrapped itself closer around her
heart.
Soon both nurse and foster mother
noticed the child beginning to grow
darker. 1t was apparently as healthy
as ever, and neither could solve the
mystery. The foster mother worried
and worried until she sent for g
doctor Then the fact was revealed
The child she had adopted was g
negro. Hurriedly leaving the wells
she returned to Dallas; her dreams
of a child that should make her re-
naming years happy were shattered
She gave the infant to negro family
nearby, and it was then the neigh
bOrs thought a white child had been
given to colored people, and the cal
for police interference followed.
The foster mother could not keeI
the infant, and was at a loss as tC
what to do with it. Acting on the
advice of Police Matron Farley she
will probably have it adopted by
some reputable colored family ant
raised by them.
Today the mother hunger in hel
heart is keen for the sound of the
cooling of a child she had thought t.
raise for her own 1t is probable
that if she had been more careful al
to who the person was from whom
the child was adopted the sorry lit
tie tragedy would never have been
acted.

PRIVATE BOOZE AT CAPITAL
Political Shift at Washington Cause
of Trouble to Some of the
Statesmen Tipplers.

The shift caused by the change in
the political complexion of the house
has resulted in embarrassment to
some of the members who have been
in the habit of taking their nips reg
ularly during the day.
Gosh, but I'm dry, and tired, and
need a drink remarked a states
man as he stood in the corridor the
other day. But blamed if / know
Where to get it. Last session l had
lots of friends who kept bottles in
their committee rooms, and | sup
pose there are just as many now, or
more, but | don't know where to To-
cate them
There seems to be no reason to
doubt that the bottl S are just as
plenty in this congress as they ever
were, but having changed their hab-
itat it is difficult for the man with a
thirst Ito spy them out Some years
ago congress prohibited by law the
sale of liquor in the capital building.
! UP to that time both the senate and
mouse restaurants sold liquor, which
| by some was considered a conven-
fence and by others a curse. The
great trouble was the young clerks
! got in the habit of drinking at these
places, and it was not uncommon to
see drunken men in the corridors of
the capital. When it was cut out en-
tirely everybody agreed that it was
g good move.
Certain senators and members
maintained bottles in their commit
! tee rooms for use in emergency, eth
er to themselves or their friends.
and it became noticeable that these
emergencies aros with startling regu-
Iarity. Every bottle soon attracted
line of regular patrons who could
be depended upon to drop in at about
the same hour daily One Senator
not long ago, found it necessary to
nave a beautiful oaken chest built
equipped with a Yale lock, and made
proof against his thirsty visitors
And one of these visitors, a man now
out of congress, was popularity sup
posed to be a teetotaler and a model
in all the manly virtues.

HIS LIFE At HARD LABOR
is SENTENCE GIVEN JOHN DIETZ
IN NOTED OUTLAW CASE.
Defended His Lands Against Lumber
Companies Who Wanted Free
Water Rights.

HAYWARD, Wis.-John F. Diet
will spend the rest of his life at hare
labor in the state penitentiary al
Waupun by the verdict of the jury
today for the murder of Deputy Os-
car Harp in the battle of Cameron
dam on Ocober 8th last.
The jury brought in the following
verdict:
John F. Dietz, guilty of murder
in the first degree.
Hattie Dietz, his wife, not guilty
of murder in the first degree.
Leslie Dietz, his son, not guilty
of murder in the first degree.
The smile with which the "old
man" has always faced the things
that have happened to him did not
desert him. He smiled as the judge
read the verdict handed up by the
foreman of the jury. He made no
demonstration
The trouble between John F. Dietz
and certain lumber interests Operat-
ing in Sawyer county, Wisconsin, be-
gan in February, 1904, through
Dietzs refusal to allow the Cameron
dam on a quarter section bought by
Mrs Dietz without paying him the
toll he demanded
In the last of his principal at
tempts to capture Dietz on various
charges and legal processes Deputy
Harp was killed. In others several
men were wounded, Myra Dietz was
shot through the body, Clarence
Dietz was wounded in the forehead,
and John himself was shot through
the hand. In addition the shooting
of Bert Horel at Winter, Wis, by
Dietz September 9Th last was more
or less closely traceable to the orig
inal fracas.
The tenth armel effort to take
Dietz was successful, and he became
a prisoner October 8th. He was
charged with various offenses, rang
ing from destruction of property and
assault and battery to kill to murder
in the first degree. Mrs. Dietz and
Leslie were defendants in the muir
der case. They, Myra and Clarence
and John Deitz are co-defendants in
other actions pending against the
Dietz family.

What is adulterated paint?
Is clay paint? Is chalk paint? Is

FOR A SHINGLES BEE.
Efforts of Massachusetts AgricuIt-
ural College Are Directed

The new bee king bureau of the
agricultural college at Amherst,
Mass, has set itself the task of de-
veloping a bee that will not sting
and at the same time will be twice
or three times as industrious as the
bee of today. Prof. Burton NogaIes,
state inspector of apiaries, who is in
charge of the work, thinks that the
hrst step in solving the problem has
Deen accomplished with the importa-
'tlon OF specimens of a bee found in
the Russian Caucasus.
This type of bee" he saws, sis
remarkable for it's gentleness. It
is not ideal in some other directions,
but we hope to get what we want
by cross breeding. Some day | think
we shall breed bees that will be great
honey or wax producers and at the
same time gentle and stingless.''

CHICAGO LOVES BEER.
In Three Days 4S,OOO,OOO Beers
Were Consumed in That CITY,

Chicago, it is claimed, leads the
world in beer drinking. During three
days of last week, when the Their
mometer ranged high, 100000 gal
Ions of the liquid were consumed in
the city That means 48,O00,000 sep
arate beers. This is nearly half q
gallon daily to every man, woman
and child in the city and suburbs
No other city in the world, not even
Berlin, it is said, can show any such
beer drinking record. Since at least
one-half of the population does not
drink beer that would run the con-
sumption for the drinkers up to
about tour quarts a day each.

in the same room with my husband.
His meals we're always served to him
in the reception room, while l had
mine on the earthen floor in the
kitchen. He always spoke to me in
the lowest grade of servants talk and
often called me by insulting names.
Sometimes when he was angry or
drunk he used TO beat me, and my
life was as miserable as that Of most
all the heather Korean women.
But now that Christ has come into
our hearts, all is changed. My hus-
hand has not struck me once since
he became a Christian. We have our
meals and prayers together in the re-
ception room, and he always speaks
kindly to me, addressing me as an
equal. The past life was a bad dream,
the present is a fore-taste Of heaven.
We did not know what love was until
Christ came into our home to teach
US"
Where is the worlds largest prayer
meeting to be found? In Christian
America or Europe? Not so, but I'm
heather Korea. Secretary A. J.
Brown says: Il attended a prayer
meeting in a church in Seoul. It was
. dark and rainy night. A Korean
was to lead and the people did not
know that a traveller from the west
would be present, but I found about
one thousand Christians assembled.
No visitor, however distinguished,
would bring out one thousand Ameri-
can church members on prayer meet
ing night I'm any city in the United
States. But twelve hundred people
packed the church the evening we
spent there. II was worth going far
TO hear those Christians pray. They
bow their faces to the floor as those
who know what it is to have daily
audience with God. This spirit per-
vades their daily lives"
The Korean churches are almost
entirely self-supporting. and the
evangelistic work is carried on by the
Koreans themselves, but there is a
great desire for Bible study All the
missionaries unite in saying that the
corner stone OF the work lies in the
Bible study classes, which are held
each year at different centers all over
Korea. These are similar to the
Northfield conferences. Three ses-
sions are held each day. and often
over one thousand are in attendance.
