EDUCATING IMMIGRANTS.
Plan Given of Campaign Being Con-
Quoted In Buffalo, N. Y.

/ Education in American standards OF
living is being given the immigrants of
| Bufiola by group Of Is women, work
| ing under the Buffalo Committee of The
North American Civic League for Inn
migrants. The manner in which these
lessons in living are impaired to the
| foreign born, as well as the results OBJ
! tanned. are described in a bulletin just
| issued for free distribution by the
United States bureau of education. Says
the bulletins,
The domestic educators go directly
into the homes of such families as are
willing to receive them. There they
show the housewife how to keep her
home clean, how to cook. how to vary
the diet, how to get the most for her
money, how to prevent sickness, how to
sew, how to take care of the children;
in fact, all or nearly all phases of
home making are taken up and thor
oughly demonstrated.
at has been found that the teaching
given to the mother of a family is
passed along to her neighbors and rela-
tiyes. especially the teaching OF food
principles.
Cereals are now used in 80 homes
where month ago they were unknown.
The use of coffee in all the homes the
educators are visiting is on The decrease.
and cocoa is used in its stead, while fresh
milk has been substituted for canned
milk. Stews and nourshing soups have
taken the place of boiled cabbage ard
fried pork. Women are baking their
own bread and cookies instead OF buy
ing most inferior quality at the near
est bakeshop. Some families who were
left as hopeless by several other philan-
tbropic agencies have been induced to
clean up their homes under the educa-
tors instructions. There are number
less children now receiving proper
hygienie care who before the educators
visits were strangers to soap and water.
Prospective mothers have benefited
greatly by the proper instruction Civ
EN-. Several babies born this month
have found carefully prepared clothing
awaiting them. whereas their elder broth
ers and sisters found only an old shirt.
Lessons in sewing have proved very
attractive to large number of women.
The children are going to school with
buttons on their dresses, whereas be-
fore the garments were pinned; the
stockings are getting attention both as
TO mending and washing, whereas pre-
yiously there was only neglect.
Through cooperation with the Char
ity Organization society 20 women are
taught how to buy economically"
As to the Importance OF the work, the
bulletin says:
"Amelioration of the home and living
conditions OF immigrant families is at
the center of the problem of assimia-
tion. Better homes mean better cit
izens. More serious than the present
overcrowding, bad air poor food, sick
ness. and the rest is the underlying
hygienic and domestic ignorance. Hth-
erto no adequate steps have been taken
to replace this ignorance by intelli-
gence To be reached effectively FOR
this purpose these immigrants must be
reached in their homes" I

HOWE ATTACKED THE BOSSES
Democratic Candidate for Governor Made
Some Sensational Innuendoes.

Barnet Aug. 9.-On Wednesday even
ing the Democratic candidate for govern
or. Harland B. Howe spoke here and
urged his candidacy upon the voters.
A large crowd turned out to hear him.
Music was furnished by the band and
several solos were sung by Mr.. David
son of Boston who is spending a few
days in town. The opening address
was made by Milo Gibson resident of
Barnet and teacher at Mercersburg acad-
emy, Pa. Elk Representative John 6.
Roy was then called upon and in few
remarks he introduced Harland b. Howe
and yielded the floor.
Mr. Howe spoke for nearly an hour
and half, dealing principally with the
so-called evil of unequal and unjust tax
alton in this state as compared with
other states about us. He spoke of
the fact that we in Vermont are wont
to look across the Connecticut river
and pity the state of New Hampshire
and her people because they have been
control. He then proceeded to show his
hearers how we are vastly more boss
ridden in the actual working out OF our
legislative methods than the state Of
New Hampshire could possibly be. His
hearers listened intently when he spoke
in detail Of the experience he had in
trying to Introduce a bill which would
expedite legal proceedings in our courts,
if it became law, as Well as other i'm
portant legislation in the legislature of
1908.
He appealed to the farmers on the
ground that they are now paying al
most twice as much taxation on the
dollar as the railroads in their midst
He exhibited Commissioner of Taxes j.
f. Cushman's tax report to substantiate
his words. In an impassioned moment
he ayerred that these unjust laws were
enacted by the bosses, not in the day
time nor when good cold water was the
beverage.

Bellows Falls. Aug. 9.-Charles Cam
eron, known to the underworld as John
sonburg Shorty and declared by the
police to the leader of a gang of yegg-
men who for many years have ter~1r-
lied New England, was arrested in this
city yesterday by the local police and
Postofiice Inspector Henry w. Robinson
of Boston, charged with breaking into
the postofiice and general store at VIII
Jamestown, last September. He is want
ed in several cities charged with post
Office robberies.
Cameron was calmly dining in a res
taurant on the main street here when
the police came upon him. Offering no
resistance he steadfastly denied his
identity. Later in the day, however,
when confronted by James K. Wood
Of the Wood-Morgan Detective agency
in Boston, he acknowledged he was the
much-wanted yeggman.
The, police of the country have been
searching for Cameron for years. One
by one they have captured members of
his gang until to-day there is but one

escaped their dragnets. He seemed

and of dollars. He is also wanted in
connection with a big jewelry robbery
in Waddington, n. Y.
The specific charge on which he was
taken, the robbery of the postoffice in
Wiliiamstown, was most dramatic af-
fair. More than 100 shots were cred
during the battle between the police
and the yeggmen. The robbers held the
officers at bay for several hours and
finally escaped with large amount of
money.
OF the Cameron gang the best remen-
bered are James Christie, Jed Prou-
ty, Edward Mccarthy and "Jack" Nel-
