Burns and Thurlow Schutts. supposed
to have been drowned there yester-
day. The two boys, who were 18 years
old. took half holiday yesterday af-

ducks. They borrowed a duckboat
and sofe decoys, and started out about
o'clock. Nothing has been seen OF

was one Of the finest babies she had
even seen. When she heard his story
she and some of the other women
criec. The Baby Knight had taken
such terrible chances aud had been
so brave and lucky through It all that
they couldn'5t help loving him.
Right then and there that first day,
they gave him name. Ono OF the
young ladies in the office called him
Arthur, because that was the name
OF the home. Mrs. Tregear. another
Sunshine society woman, added the
name Valentine, because 1t was or
Valentine day that the Baby Knigh
had come to their home. Mrs. Gym
thia Alden. head Of the Internationa
| Sunshine society, added the NAM
| Lyndhurst( because that was tn,
name OF the town where the little
dog and the pigs tried to get at th'
shoe-box.
And SO the Baby Knight has beer
named Arthur Valentine Lyndhurst
He can talk now; he can count, too

balls he plays with and see how quick

1t won't be long before they'll be

WASHINGTON, March i-.-Wash'
ington, already known for many
things besides being the seat of the
government of the United States, Will
have another distinction after July 1,
IL present plans are carried out. 1t
will be the only city in the country
without a Jail.
The cause of economy, which has
been a byword with the present ad-
ministration for years. Is responsible
for this state of affairs, for In the
District appropriation bill passed by
the last congress the warden OF the
District jail and fifty employees are
legislated out Of office, and the insti-
tuition is affiliated with the Washing
ton Asylum hospital.
The friends Of Warden Mckee, who
Is to be dropped from the rolls at the
time OF the consolidation, say that to
accomplish their purpose the commits
sioners must destroy buildings that
originally cost 100000, and are In
good repair, and that new buildings
must he erected that will cost at least
81, 100000. The commissioners, II Is
understood, intend to make park OF
the present site Of the jail.
Warden Mckee probably will be
given a position in the department OF
Justice. The encouragement recent.
ly commended Warden Mckee on the
showing he has made while In charge
of the Jail, and he has many warm
friends in the department.

Beattie Convicted

q heard MT. B. NJ. Allen, one of the ablest members of the Alabama bar, and, in my opinion. the ablest lawyer in the handling of criminal cases in the south, say day or two ago that young Beattie of Virginia. arraigned for numbering his wife, would be convicted and duly elec- trocuted," remarked club man last night Knowing MT. Allen to be an ex- pert in analysing evidence and motives and taking it for granted that he would follow the trial very closely, I asked him before the testimony was anything like concluded what he thought of the case. He expressed his firm belief in conyic- ton. He did not see how it was pos sible for the defense to overcome the gun circumstance. MT. Allen happened to be in Richmond few days after the mur- der when lawyers and citizens generally were discussing the case. On his return to Birmingham heard MT. Allen say that, understanding as he did the viewpoint of Virginia juries, crcumstantial evidence would be well nigh compelling. He said then that he wouldn't give two cents for Beatties life
 The trial was reported by the Asso- cated Press quite fully, and 1 followed 1t daily. I have never known a young man who illustrated the Bible proverb more fully The wages of sin is death. than this same Henry Clay Beattie, Jr. I am glad to see that clean minded men and women in New York and other cities are protesting vigorously against the young woman in the case appearing on the stage or in moving pictures
