EVANGELIST AND WIFE
TRAVEL IN AUTOMOBILES
Covering the State in the Interest OF
RuCkner's Orphans Home

| fuChHtF OfpnaDS' Home.
The parties referred to in the fol
lowing from the San Antonio Elk
press formerly lived in Midlothian
and Waxahachie:
Rev. S. c. Bailey and wife are
starting upon an unique and what
promises to be a successful cam
| palgn to solicit aid for the Buck
ner Orphans Home The evangelist
and Mrs. Bailey are entering upon
the second year of their labors for
the great institution at Dallas, their
territory extending from Temple to
brownsville and from Houston to
Ell Paso
Mr.. Bailey, who lives at 1901 Du-
range street, has a big white auto
mobile, and he and his family go
from town to town, carrying their
own camping outfit, spending two
or three days in each place, gather
ing supplies for this great family of
orphan children of more than six
hundred who are absolutely depend
ent upon the general public for vol
untary contributions for their sup
port. He says the public is more
than kind to him wherever he goes
and the newspapers are more than
kind, making the needs of the insti-
tuition known to the people-many
thousands of whom he never gets to
see face to face
This great home for orphan chill
dren, dependent widows and old peo-
pie was founded thirty-four years
ago about seven miles out from Dali
las by Dr. r. c. Buckner, the pres
ent manager. During this time the
home has fed, clothed and trained
more than six thousand orphan boys
and girls to go out and meet the
world
The family has grown from the
first three to more than six hun
dred. At first it did not take much
to care for them; but now it takes
$l25 per day to run the institution
The bill of fare runs something
like this daily; Two hundred pounds
of flour gives them biscuit for break
fast; a wash tub full of eggs gives
them eggs for meal a crate of
cabbage gives them a cabbage din
ner; a sack of beans bean dinner;
fifty sides of bacon and sixty gallons
of molasses supplies them for
week.
1t is the policy of the home to re-
ceNe all white orphan children with
open arms without discrimination
as to nationality or religious cameo
ton. No dependent white orphan
child has ever been turned away
from the charity of this institution.
Brothers and sisters are not separat-
ed, and no child is let out to be made
a servant of.

JUDGE SAYS TOWN
HAS DIVORCE GERM.
'icves Climate Responsible for IL
Matrimonial Fizzles During
the Year


San Francisco, Cal, Sept. Alas
the divorce germ been trailed to its
lair? Have We found the answer at
last to the burning question of why
matrimonial wrecks by the wayside
Of life?
Superior Judge George Buck of
Redwood City thinks that it is the
climate and that the particular
brand OF climate that best nourishes
the divorce germ is that which en-
folds the hills and palaces of Burd-
llngame, where the fairest of the
fair and the richest of the rich live.
Mrs. Blanche Doyle of Burlin-
game appeared before Judge Buck
seeking divorce from Stephen Buck
an employe Of the w H Crocker es-
tate
What is the matter with Burlin-
game, anyway?" asked Judge Buck
musingly. why all these divorce
cases from that place? 1t seems as
if the climate must be Just right for
the little germ down there"
Mrs Doyle said that she could not
answer. She did not know much of
her neighbors' affairs. Perhaps it
was restlessness.
The judge held her case in abey-
ance while he thought over the
problem
In population of $500 there
have been twelve divorce cases filed
from Burlingame since the first OF
the year

GREAT MAP FACTORY,
| United States Geological Survey
Turns Out Enormous Number

Turns cut enormous Number
The greatest official map-making
establishment in the country at
present is the United States Geolog-
zeal survey. In constructing the
huge topographic and geologic maps
OF the United States every detail of
I the work is done by the survey, from
/ the work of topographers who make
1 the maps in the field down through
! the various stages of drafting, let
/ tering, editing, engraving and lith-
/ ographic printing in many coored
inks. There is practically no cOmpil-
| alton about the Geological Survey
maps; they are based on surveys
made on the ground, and the office
] work consists simply in putting them
into form for issuance to the public
They depict most faithfully the char
a eterists of the areas surveyed.
Every year with the coming of the
open field season numerous survey
parties hurry away from the Wash
ington office to the four quarters of
the United States, as we'll as to Alas
ka, and the result of their seasons
work is the topographic and geologic
mapping of tens of thousands of
square miles of all sorts of country
ranging from the most forbidG tx
swamps and morasses to the lott,ost
of the glacier-covered mountains of
the Rockies and the high Sierra, and
including the most valuable mineral
deposits of the nation While these
parties are thus traversing untrod-
den fields, the survey engraving and
printing plant throughout the sum-
mer, as in fact through all the year,
is turning out hundreds of thous-
anis of copies of the results of tina
previous years field work. In a sin
gle midsummer month this year the
survey plant printed 1902 ,404 topo-
graphic maps. 5,345 geologic folios,
each containing many maps, and
111,170 copies of other geologic
maps, charts, etc. Besides its own
maps a great number of maps are
also printed by the survey engraving
division for other branches and de- |
partments of the government. Ste
phen j. Kubel, chief engraver, has |
run this extensive engraving and !
printing plant under the director of |
the geological survey for the past % |
years. Years ago he instituted an al |
most exact cost-keeping system |
which has enabled him to enter into |
close competitive bidding ON some of |
the government contract work and
to run the engraving plant on thor
oughly up-to-date business lines
Most of the maps are printed in
eolors and for the total number OF
21S,919 maps and charts printed
during the month mentioned the
number of separate printings or i'm
pressions was 1,2S7.6o9. The geo

LETTER FROM
A TAXPAYER


South Amboy, Oct. Is, 1911.
EDITOR EVENING NEWS.
Since your valuable paper Is wide
ly read In our city, permit me to lay
before our citizens q few thoughts
In regard to what appears to many
OF your readers to be q rather too
rapid pace for this city at the pres
ent time.
The proposed paving Of broadway
at this time appears to be an unwise
step. 1t appears to be the outcome
of an impulse that has not as yet re-
ceived any deliberate counting of
the cost.
This city has undertaken to build
a system of sanitary sewers that
have already cost $4,000 for the
main contracts alone. The side con-
tracts when completed will probably
exceed $4,000 more. This will abb
sorb the entire sum secured from
the bond issue OF $4,000. One
third OF the sewer system has yet to
be built. The contract for this Is
soon to be awarded. This will, in all
probability, not be less than $4,000,
with an extra cost for house connec-
lions amounting probably to $4,000
more. This $4,000 or more Is not
in any way provided for. Now, while
this unproyided-for large sum faces
us as a certainty as real as a rent
day, we are assuming another oblf-
cation that will reach In the neigh
borhood of $4,000 more, making
$4,000 to be raised In addition to
u bonds. The problem that is fac
ing the thoughtful citizen rs where
are wa drifting to? Are we to lace
another issue of bonds, and If SO
where Is the limit to this policy to
be set?
II may be true that some proper
tion Of the property owners ON
Broadway have asked for this Inn
proyement. These people may be
willing to pay fer a part of this paw
Ing bill. IL given time enough. but a.
large share of the cost will be paid
by the property owners who live in
other parts of the city where this
pavement win not benefit them.
Again, why spend this sum on one
street while other streets not nearly
In SO good a condition are entirely
neglected. Some OF the streets have
been yielding tax revenue for many
years, while not q cent In twenty
years has been expended for any Inn
provement on these streets. These
facts impress many thoughtful tax
payers with the idea that our coun-
ell Is not warranted in hurrying mat
ters SO fast, and In mixing up too
many things In one mess.
These citizens are not unmindful
of the fact thar hffsinnng rouditfar.S
